Lao Zhao knew that the villa must be worried about the safety of the three of them, so after receiving Lao Xu's confirmation reply, without any nonsense, he first reported that he was safe, so that Lao Xu and everyone in the villa who might be listening around Lao Xu Calm down your emotions.
Next, he reported their experience today to the other party in great detail. At the same time, he also gave Lao Xu a rough description of the general situation of the second shelter they selected.
After hearing this, Lao Xu was naturally quite surprised. He really didn't expect that Lao Zhao and the other three would make such rapid progress, and actually find such a "paradise" on the day of their trip.
Although that village was still far from the so-called "Utopia" standard, but judging from what Lao Zhao said, Lao Xu intuitively felt that as long as they worked hard in the future, it would definitely become a Utopia for their team.
After talking about business, Lao Xu also knew that Lao Zhao and the others had a hard time traveling and traveling. In order not to disturb their rest, he interrupted contact with the other party after instructing them on some safety matters.
After Lao Zhao turned off the call knob, he felt relaxed all over. No matter what happened next, at least the beginning of today's mission went smoothly. He also sincerely hopes to maintain this good momentum and continue.
The night was long, and the three survivors had nothing to do. They chatted for a while in the living room. Maybe they were too tired from the bumpy journey. Without saying a few words, Wang Qiang was the first to fall asleep. In order not to Disturbing his rest, the remaining Lao Zhao and Tang Xiaoquan also terminated the conversation.
After about 10 minutes, the heavy bass symphony played by Wang Qiang and Lao Zhao started playing one after another. Tang Xiaoquan sat in front of the window and looked at the two snoring men on the bed, feeling a little funny.
The thought in his mind was: Just because of their deep sleepiness, the two of them had stubbornly requested to stay vigil just now. I really don’t know what kind of confidence they had in making such a decision.
The reason why Tang Xiaoquan chose to take on the duty of keeping vigil was entirely due to his understanding of his living situation. In the past, because he was engaged in the IT industry, it was absolutely common for him to stay up late and work overtime to rush production.
So he felt that he was fully capable of resisting the invasion of sleepiness at night. Of course, this also had to have a premise, that is, he must get enough sleep as soon as possible after staying up late, otherwise no matter how strong he is, he will be unable to sleep in the next time. He will definitely not be able to resist it.
The zombies outside the door were still banging tirelessly and persistently outside the door, but compared with when the survivors came, the movement was much smaller, probably because there was no prey in sight.
Along with the knocking sounds made by the zombies outside the door from time to time, Tang Xiaoquan's brain began to work at high speed, thinking about what they should do tomorrow.
The winter morning is still dark, making it easy to mistake it for late night. However, for survivors who have lived in the apocalypse for a long time, getting up early has become an inherent habit.
If we want to find out the reason, we probably have to thank Lao Xu. If he hadn't adopted an early morning training plan for everyone in the villa, it would be impossible for Wang Qiang to wake up spontaneously at such an early hour.
At least in the latter's mind, ever since he participated in his first 2.5-kilometer round-trip run, he had no connection with laziness.
Lao Zhao took out some rice from the rice bag, and with the food consumed yesterday, they only had one day's worth of food left. In other words, they had to go out today to find a way to solve the food problem in the next few days.
There is nothing more pleasant than eating hot porridge all night on this last cold day.
Lao Zhao held the heated porcelain bowl and warmed his hands: "Quan Zi, did you decide what we were going to do today last night?"
Tang Xiaoquan looked a little tired. Apparently staying up late had made him exhausted. He yawned and said, "I thought about it carefully last night. First, we have to get rid of the zombies outside first, otherwise it will be a problem to go out. Secondly, we have to find a way to tidy up this room. You see, first of all, we have to replace the broken door lock with a new one; then we have to replace the broken glass; and finally the bedroom wall And the floors might need a bit of painting, too.”
Paint the walls? Wang Qiang almost burst into tears after hearing this: "I'll go! Quan Zi, you have a bad mind, you still have to paint that rotten wall!"
Tang Xiaoquan rolled his eyes at him angrily and said: "There are only three of us now, and in terms of protection, this house in the entire village is a little more sound, so we must find a place for everyone to stay before the villa army comes." Point. Since this is the place to stay, Qiangzi, let me ask you, are you willing to sleep in that blood-stained room at night? If you are willing to sleep in it for the whole night, then just think that I just farted."
Wang Qiang couldn't help but start to feel frightened when he thought about the scene in the house where people might be cautious. At that moment, he hesitated and said vaguely: "You... you are called Mao. I'm not saying I won't brush my hair." It means, we don’t have tools or anything, so we can’t do it even if we want to.”
"That's why we have to hurry up and set off, Lao Zhao. As soon as we get in the car, we will drive towards the nearby market town, hoping to get what we need there." Tang Xiaoquan speeded up his eating.
"No problem, we can just pick up some supplies and prepare them back. Firstly, our food is only enough for today, and secondly, we will have supplies when the large army comes in the future." Old Zhao is far-sighted, and he has already started Making plans for the days ahead.
After the three survivors reached an agreement, they immediately took action. Their first goal was to clear out the zombies blocking the door.
They have set up three plans for this:
1. Use the gap killing method that Wang Qiang used before to eliminate the zombies blocking the door one by one. The biggest advantage of doing this is safety. With the obstruction of the big iron door, you can safely and boldly kill the zombies without worrying about being attacked by them.
The shortcomings of this method are also prominent, that is, low efficiency. Just imagine that with such a large gap, no matter how hard you try to chop and slash from the front, back, left, and right, there will be no speed advantage after all.
The second method they set up just solved this problem.
2. Open the door directly, let the zombies in, and use the open space in the courtyard to quickly kill the zombies.
Compared with the previous method, this idea obviously has an advantage in speed.
However, this method also has a fatal flaw, that is, safety cannot be guaranteed. After all, facing the sudden influx of a large number of zombies, with the strength of the three of them, Lao Zhao, there would inevitably be no wings.
When dealing with zombies, any oversight will be fatal.
Therefore, once this method was proposed, it was collectively rejected by everyone. After all, compared with efficiency and safety, the latter is more important. (To be continued.)
