The area inside the house is not large, especially after housing 7 people. Fortunately, the "Autumn Tiger" has passed now, otherwise it would definitely feel quite "exciting" to take refuge in such a small space.
However, even though there was no "hot flow" of baptism, there was no trace of sweat left on the survivors.
They were close together, leaning against the wall, motionless. The curtain on the window had been closed by Lin Junfu, which made the room even more gloomy.
Everyone wisely remained silent, for fear of making any noise and disturbing the animals outside the house.
But Fangfang is still a child after all, although the suffering of the end of the world has made him appear quite mature.
But this still couldn't stop the impact of fear on her, especially in such a dark environment.
So, as expected, Fangfang spoke up. She held on to her mother, who had long since lost her soul, and whispered with a trembling voice: "Mom! I'm afraid!"
The sound was short and not loud. For a young child, her reaction was undoubtedly very normal.
But even if it was like this, it fell into the ears of all the adults, and it still shocked them into a cold sweat.
Lin Junfu had no choice. For the safety of everyone, he could only pull Fangfang into his arms arbitrarily, and then cover the child's mouth tightly with his palms.
Fangfang instinctively wanted to break away. A pair of small hands kept pulling at Lao Lin's palm, and her throat went up and down, making a "wow" sound.
But how could she, a young child, stand up to the brute force of an adult?
And just as the two sides were competing for strength, a head stuck close to the curtain suddenly poked its way in.
"Click! Click!" Due to the obstruction of the curtain, the zombie could not see what was going on inside the house, but this did not prevent it from biting with its teeth.
Soon the white curtain reflected a tooth mark, and the rotten stench drifted in with the breeze.
It is really hard to imagine the oppression the survivors suffered at that time. Almost every one of them was soaked in cold sweat.
But even so, the survivors still did not dare to move rashly. They tried their best to curl up and press their backs as much as possible, just to reduce the risk of exposure.
The zombie's big head kept shaking left and right. It was like a radar, and it lasted for half an hour.
In the end, perhaps because it felt that there was no movement in the room, it finally withdrew its head and threw the target towards it.
Take a long breath. Lin Junfu gently lifted the corner of the curtain, took a look outside, and then quickly lowered the curtain and returned to its original position.
"How's it going outside? Are the beasts gone?" Seeing Lao Lin finish his move, Hu Xiaodong immediately leaned forward and whispered.
Lin Junfu was not in a hurry to answer. Instead, he stroked Fangfang, who was still frightened, and said softly with a hint of guilt: "Fangfang! Uncle hurt you just now! I'm so sorry! But you have to know that those monsters outside are bad guys, you If you make any noise, they will crawl in and eat you and mom, so we can't talk casually like we just did, do you understand?"
Fangfang was not stupid, of course she knew that those roaring "monsters" outside were not good people, so she nodded her head obediently, but her eyes were still filled with fear.
To this. Lin Junfu was very heartbroken. Such a young child, because of this damn apocalypse, does not even have the basic right to enjoy life, and has to be so terrified all day long. This is really...
"Alas!" He sighed softly, and Lin Junfu moved his eyes to Hu Xiaodong beside him, and then replied to his previous question: "The beast hasn't left, it's still outside. I guess he won't be able to leave for a while." .”
"That's it~" Hu Xiaodong thought a little. He glanced at the layout of the house, and finally raised his finger and pointed at a wooden door in the opposite corner: "I think so! It's not a problem for us to stay here all the time, so we might as well go outside and take a look!"
Frankly speaking, Hu Xiaodong's proposal is extremely risky. Because no one knows what will happen when you open this door.
But as Hu Xiaodong said, if you just wait for the beast to leave, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the beast to leave the alley within ten days and a half.
Then the problem arises. If the beast doesn't leave, the survivors can't move either.
But there is no problem if the beast does not eat or drink, but as the survivors, Hu Xiaodong and others do not want to eat or drink. That's not far from death.
So after weighing the pros and cons, Lin Junfu finally agreed with Hu Xiaodong's opinion.
"That's it! I'll go over to investigate first. Everyone, be ready for action. If there is any abnormality, we will respond accordingly!"
After saying that, Hu Xiaodong slowly stood up and tightened the crowbar in his hands with his big hands.
"I'm going!" Hu Xiaodong winked at his companion and walked forward.
At the same time, Lin Junfu also greeted Da Zhuang, holding the curtain firmly on the edge of the window with one hand to prevent the breeze from blowing and exposing Hu Xiaodong's whereabouts.
Walking to the wooden door, Hu Xiaodong looked at the door lock. The door lock is a push-down switch. This opening and closing method can somewhat reduce the sound of the door opening.
After confirming, Hu Xiaodong turned around and gestured to his companion, intending to tell him that he was ready to take action.
3, 2, 1, as the last finger fell, Hu Xiaodong's right hand pressed down on the doorknob decisively, and soon there was a "click" sound, and the door lock opened.
Hu Xiaodong quickly lowered his figure and disappeared into the darkness at the moment of the sound.
so close! Although he also expected the sound that would come from opening the door, it still frightened him when the reality came true.
Sweat dripped down his cheeks, and the silent curtains suddenly started to stir.
The white ghost-like faces were biting at the curtain again. Wei Dazhuang and Lin Junfu both released their fingers in time.
This will prevent the curtains from tearing due to pulling, otherwise they will be fully exposed to the sight of animals.
The stalemate lasted for a full 15 minutes. Hu Xiaodong, who was crouching on the ground, felt soreness in his injured leg. He was about to lose control. The beast who had forgotten for a long time finally withdrew without any results.
Everyone let out a long breath. Hu Xiaodong rubbed his sore wounds, then stood up again and leaned against the door.
It's a matter of life and death! There would definitely be a sound when the door opened, so Hu Xiaodong decided to give up trying slowly and simply give it a one-shot deal.
Having made up his mind, Hu Xiaodong immediately took action.
As usual, he informed his companions, and then he opened the door decisively with his palms. Immediately, the old door shaft let out an uncontrollable "howl", and this "howl" was placed here. In the quiet environment, there was undoubtedly an "earth-shaking" sound.
terrible! This was the most realistic reaction of each survivor at the moment, and before they could express any more thoughts, the curtain suddenly shook violently, and the zombies rioted... (To be continued.)
