Entering the county town, the survivors' convoy headed east. This was the route they had planned before setting off, just to avoid Liu Fugui's factory.
Relying on Tang Xiaoquan's command, the motorcade drove smoothly. Their next stop was to the pharmacy.
Therefore, most of the members kept their eyes open and carefully observed the situation on both sides of the street in order to find a suitable store.
Looking down the street in the apocalypse is really a test of people's hearts. Especially four months after the apocalypse, the desolation of the streets and the mess of the roads will inevitably make even strong people feel a sense of sadness. .
Once upon a time, human civilization was so prosperous and powerful, but a mere virus destroyed this once mighty civilization to such a dilapidated state in just a few months.
Are humans really going to be exterminated? Is humanity really going to be destroyed by this disaster?
No one knows, but if things continue like this, human civilization is indeed not far from the above two points.
After driving for about half an hour, the convoy of survivors entered the city from the outskirts of the county.
This place is obviously much more lively than the suburbs, and the empty streets have become a little more lively due to the increase in "passers-by".
The reason for entering a more "popular" urban area is mainly to obtain a relatively comprehensive range of medicines and antibiotics.
In addition, Lao Xu also wanted to replenish some raw materials for the renovation of the station. After all, after several vehicles and house reinforcements, the iron plates, nails and other items brought from the Bieyuan Community have been almost exhausted.
So now, it has indeed reached the point where it needs to be supplemented.
Soon, Xu Renjie was lucky enough to find the place where he needed to replenish supplies. It was a hardware store. The store was not big, but it was quite crowded inside. Just from the items placed outside, there were several items. Something that Lao Xu desperately needs.
Not only that, there is a store next to it that specializes in selling decoration materials. Similarly, the cement, yellow sand and other items in the store are also things that Lao Xu thinks it is necessary to bring.
The car was parked in front of the store. Before the survivors could get out of the car, Hu Xiaodong felt the car shaking. Several runners were already following him and came over to kill him.
Wei Dazhuang opened the car door with an expressionless face. He was a fearless person, and with the stab-proof suit on his body, he was even more fierce now.
After getting out of the car, without saying a word, he kicked the beast that was rushing towards him. After he succeeded, he drew two knives with his backhand and then staggered them down, breaking the beast's neck with all his strength.
At the same time, Lao Xu also led his men out of the car. He raised his eyebrows and looked around. After the assessment was completed, he ordered Hu Xiaodong to park the car sideways at the entrance of the store.
And he walked to the car in a few steps and opened the door on the side of the car. Suddenly, a large number of packages lost their support and fell to the ground because the side door opened.
Lao Xu didn't care about this. After all, the car full of packages was imported. To put it bluntly, it was a gift from God.
Since it is a gift, it is naturally divided into useful and useless, but the materials in the store behind him are different. Those are things that the survivors desperately need.
Therefore, Lao Xu immediately ordered: "Hu Xiaodong, Da Zhuang, and Wang Qiang follow me to protect you! Others go into the house to carry supplies!"
After the order was issued, Tang Xiaoquan immediately called Zhang Zhicai and Li Zhong entered the shop.
As soon as they entered the house, they immediately smelled the smell of corpses filling the air.
After taking a closer look, sure enough, behind the cashier counter, a corpse that had been dug up and withered bones scattered on the ground, and many scabbed pieces of meat and rotten residue were scattered on the surrounding utensils.
Li Zhong was retching uncontrollably. Time was running out, and Tang Xiaoquan had no time to comfort him. He pulled a black plastic bag hanging from the top and began to pick up the materials inside the nails and nuts.
Zhang Zhicai went into the storage warehouse in the back hall alone to look for large items such as iron sheets.
There was a lot of activity inside the house, and a fierce battle was going on outside.
The first three beasts without eyes were already killed by Wei Dazhuang's twin sickles.
But as the war started, the sound of slashing and killing soon attracted the attention of other beasts in the streets, so the beasts began to gather and attack the survivors' positions in groups.
"Xiao Hu, get on the roof and defend yourself from the enemy!" Lao Xu shouted, taking the lead in climbing onto the roof of the urban management vehicle, and then climbed onto the roof of the SUV again.
His purpose was very clear. He wanted to use the long-distance advantage of the bow and crossbow in his hands to snipe and kill the more aggressive runners first.
Because these beasts are extremely fast, once they are killed in large numbers, one's own position will be in chaos, and the consequences will be disastrous.
"Whoosh!" The sound of breaking through the air sounded one after another. Old Xu knew that his shooting skills were not as good as Hu Xiaodong's, so Hu Xiaodong shot him in 100 steps, while he shot in 50 steps.
In this way, two natural barriers were formed, one far and one close, which relieved the pressure of ground combat in a short period of time.
After all, ordinary walkers move slowly, and the current survivors have thorn suits for body protection, so even if they are scratched a few times, it won't be a big deal.
But Lao Xu still clearly realized that a long-term stalemate was not the answer, because once the beasts formed a numerical advantage, even if they could resist for a while, breaking through later would be a problem.
Thinking about this, Xu Renjie had to remind loudly: "Xiao Tang, Xiao Zhang, Xiao Li, hurry up, we must evacuate in 5 minutes!"
After hearing this, Tang Xiaoquan knew that the battle outside must have reached a fever pitch, so he no longer picked at it, but instead fiddled with it in the plastic bag.
They were all from the hardware store anyway, and he believed that as long as he brought them with him, they would always be useful.
After finishing a bag, he left the hardware store. When he saw Xu Renjie moving towards the decoration store next door, he was worried about his safety. He put away the crossbow gun with only a few arrows left, and jumped off the roof of the car. Guards Tang Xiaoquan flashed into the decoration store together.
Yellow sand, cement, and corresponding wall paint glue were all scattered randomly on the road. It seems that there had been a fierce battle in this store.
However, Tang and Xu had no time to observe carefully at the moment, so they leaned over and started to move outside the house.
Without Xu Renjie's firepower support, Hu Xiaodong's sniping became obviously more difficult. The original two lines of defense were now in tatters and became unsupportable. From this moment, a running car broke out of the bow and arrow cover and rushed out.
The coats worn by Wang Qiang and Wei Dazhuang, who were on the front line, were already badly damaged, and the cracks scratched and pulled by corpse claws were terrifying.
From time to time, zombies were killed by the two of them, but more beasts gathered and approached the survivors' convoy with low roars.
The situation has reached an extremely critical moment! (To be continued.)
