Lao Xu's refusal was reasonable. In the current situation, the building was surrounded by zombies inside and outside. Even if Li Xiaoxin could drive in, Lao Xu and the others would not be able to break out.
So instead of dragging Li Xiaoxin in to die again, Lao Xu would rather die here.
But that being said, no one wants to die like this.
Especially Lao Xu, who has experienced various desperate situations. In the past, he has resisted the fierce pursuit of foreign hostile forces. Now he is asked to give in in front of a bunch of brainless beasts here? It's obviously impossible.
"Old Xu, I think the only way out now is to go back the way we came." Seeing that no one was speaking, Derek said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Hua Biao raised his eyebrows, glanced at Derek, shook his head and objected: "Don't be ridiculous, Xiaode, how can we go back the same way now? Look at the situation outside, we will die if we land!"
"That's not necessarily the case!" Derek did not give up, he still insisted on his point of view.
Lao Xu saw that the young man's face was solemn and he didn't want to play. He stopped Hua Biao, who was still refuting, and said calmly: "If you have any plans, tell me."
"This... plan is out of the question, but I think you, Lao Xu, also know that zombies have developed hearing. If we can lure them to a suitable place, then isn't there hope for us to return the same way we came?"
Squinting his eyes slightly, Lao Xu nodded.
Undoubtedly, the young man's suggestion does have some truth. If they can really gather the zombies in a certain place, they can indeed escape by rappelling with the rope they carry.
So the question is, how to attract zombies? Where else can we find such a place to "accommodate" these beasts?
Lao Xu asked this question casually, and Derek replied without any panic: "Down here is the most suitable place."
Following the direction of the young man's finger, everyone turned their eyes to the entrance of the corridor.
Wang Zhongyu suddenly asked: "Down here? Do you plan to gather the zombies at the bottom of the building?"
"That's right! I've seen that although there are a lot of zombies on the street, they can't be compared to the size of the school. And the first floor of the police station plus the yard can accommodate more than twice the number of them. We just need to throw these things away , I believe the noise will be enough to attract them in." He pointed again, this time Derek's target was on the defensive position they had just established.
So far. Lao Xu finally understood the young man's thinking, and he definitely nodded: "Well, this method is feasible, but don't move the things here. Let's move the throwing objects into the house to prevent things from going wrong!"
It is true that zombies have sensitive hearing, and it is also true that they like to move with the sound, but there are exceptions to everything. You have to guard against any new changes in these beasts that are constantly evolving and adapting.
If things inject zombies later and the zombies do not stop at the bottom of the building as planned, then when they come upstairs, the survivors will not even have the final defense.
The only thing they can do is fight head-on with the zombies. Despite the opponent's absolute advantage in numbers, it is obvious that the survivors have no chance of winning.
After Lao Xu spoke, everyone immediately took action. After a while, various large and small "things" were carried to the corridor one after another by the survivors.
Seeing that the things were almost there, Lao Xu took a teacup first.
The tea cup is ceramic. It looks quite elegant, so the price must be quite high.
However, Lao Xu obviously didn't care about the price of this treasure. He stretched out his hand to the gap at the entrance of the corridor and then loosened his fingers.
At this time, the porcelain teapot caught by the fingertips fell freely. With the help of the earth's gravity, the teapot fell faster and faster. Not long after, the survivors heard a crisp cracking sound coming from the bottom of the building.
Frankly speaking, the noise a teapot can make is too small, but it is in the quiet corridor. It was really shocking to make such a sudden noise.
When the voice fell, the survivors all felt their hearts tightening and pricked their ears to hear what was going on underneath the building.
soon. Dense footsteps followed.
This was the sound that the survivors were looking forward to. With these chaotic steps at the bottom, Lao Xu immediately ordered: "Throw!"
Okay! Lao Xu and the others have probably never done such a bad thing in their lives.
Not to mention tables, chairs and benches, office equipment, computer cases and other large and small items were all thrown to the bottom of the building by the survivors.
For a time, the entire building was in a state of chaos caused by the survivors. "Lots of noise."
Since the items are thrown directly to the bottom of the building, the survivors do not need to worry about zombies following the sound upstairs.
After about a minute of throwing, Old Xu Wu returned to the house, leaned on the window sill and peered towards the street.
As expected, the zombies were affected by the continuous "noise" in the building and began to walk into the police station in an orderly manner.
Lao Xu didn't need them to completely enter the building, as long as the beast was within the predetermined range.
"How are you, company commander? Have they moved?" Hua Biao's voice came from behind.
Lao Xu turned his face and looked at it, then walked quickly outside the house, nodding affirmatively as he walked: "Everything is going according to plan, go, go out and continue throwing."
If he wanted to fix all the zombies in the designated area, Lao Xu estimated that he would have to throw them away for a while.
After all, the entire street is neither long nor short, almost 1 kilometer long. Not to mention attracting all the zombies, at least the zombies near the police station must be unified.
I just worked like this for 2 or 3 minutes, and just by listening to the ghostly howls of the zombies in the building, I could deduce the scale of the gathering of beasts.
Wang Zhongyu boldly glanced down, then withdrew his head and groaned weirdly: "I'll go! It's really lively! I estimate there are about 40 of them at least."
In fact, Wang Zhongyu didn't know how many zombies there were at the bottom of the building. He only saw shaking black shadows, but even so, it still made him feel terrified.
"Old Xu, it should be almost done!" Hu Xiaodong stopped his movements and asked.
After all, too much is too little, and throwing too much is likely to backfire.
Of course Lao Xu understood this. He did not rush to reply, but returned to the house again to confirm and take a look.
After waiting for a few minutes to confirm, he finally gave the retreat order.
Retreating along the original route was obviously unrealistic given the current situation, but Lao Xu, who had already chosen a location, led everyone to the back of the building.
Since the sound was coming from inside the building, most of the zombies were gathered inside and on the front side of the building. On the contrary, there was no trace of animals in the large open space at the back. This gives the survivors a chance to escape.
But before that, they still have one important thing to do, which is to get training with Li Xiaoxin outside.
Taking out his mobile phone, Lao Xu turned on the switch on it. The mobile phone had always been in a silent state for safety reasons. (To be continued.)
