"Dong dong dong!" There was a knock on the door.
"Come in." Yu Hongda was the only one sitting in the room.
Yu Hongda was thoughtful as soon as he saw Zhang Xu and the two of them. He looked at Zhang Xu hard. This man had almost no equipment. He could not have come here from the cargo area with just a hidden knife. By the way! This man didn't even have a backpack. He must have hidden his gun. It seemed like he was going to be soft.
Yu Hongda laughed, pointed to the chair with a gentle face, and said: "Come, sit, sit wherever you want, you're welcome."
Zhang Xu and Wang Jun were not polite and sat down directly.
He also signaled Wu Fanyang to pour tea for Zhang Xu and others.
"This is Longjing tea, drink tea, drink tea." Yu Hongda's attitude was very good, gentle and elegant, and it seemed that he was not as scary as Uncle Yan Hao said.
"Actually, I have something to ask of you. Haha, I'm just impatient. I haven't introduced myself yet." Yu Hongda talked and laughed calmly, smiling.
When Zhang Xuyu saw Yu Hongda's harmless smile, he felt even more panicked. He must be cautious when talking to this person, otherwise he would definitely be plotted against, if he hadn't learned about Yu Hongda's unbearable situation from Uncle Yan Hao. Such atrocities, whoever saw Yu Hongda would think he was a good citizen!
Zhang Xu's face was expressionless, but he said in his heart: You can pretend well, come on, continue your performance, and I will send you an Oscar statuette later...
Now Zhang Xu was not interested in what Yu Hongda said, as if the next moment he covered his head and said: Don't listen, don't listen, the bastard is chanting sutras.
But since he is the manager of this shopping mall, he still needs to be amicable, otherwise who knows what he will do to him?
"I'm Yu Hongda, may I ask the names of these little brothers? They are so young and promising, hahaha." Yu Hongda said politely.
"I am Wang Jun, and this is my brother Xu."
"My name is Zhang Xu."
"Young and promising, young and promising." Yu Hongda smiled.
Let's build a good relationship first, and then talk about it. It is said that where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. If you want to get a gun, you can't just rely on robbing. It is more about playing the emotional card.
Next it was time to talk about business. "I heard that one of the little brothers has a pistol. I wonder who it is?" Yu Hongda said with a serious face. His purpose was to get this pistol and consolidate his position. After all, Zhang Xu It's not like the sound of gunfire on the 8th floor was inaudible. Smart people knew it was gunfire, not to mention that Yu Hongda, a gangster, even used a pistol.
"I fired the pistol." Zhang Xu didn't hide it at all. He knew that Yu Hongda was not stupid, and there was no point in lying to him. It was better to simply confess, so that they would be a little afraid of him.
After all, this is country Z, which strictly prohibits guns. They actually want Zhang Xu's pistol. It is probably because there is no gun that can threaten them. Otherwise, they would have killed people to get goods. In the end of the world, these lawless people can only kill people and get goods. is the most suitable for survival.
But it’s not easy to get a gun. In the 23rd century, every gun is basically marked after production, including when it was made, where it was made, and which arsenal. This COP pistol was made in 1983 and is a product of the 20th century. For Zhang Xu in the early 23rd century, it was an antique gun. Maybe because it was an antique gun, there was no mark to prove it. Zhang Xu might have been lucky and found a COP pistol from the home of a military fan.
Under the technological foundation of the 23rd century, basically any product has a logo. The logo is similar to the QR code in the early 21st century. The logo is more powerful. Except for the population information that does not have a logo, all kinds of things actually have logos. There is no way to fake it, and even if you steal something, you don’t dare to sell it, because the mark can identify the original owner.
"Well, I appreciate your courage to go straight into this large shopping mall. Young man, since you have a gun, why not change it to something else? I know you guys came to the 8th floor just to find food. We have plenty of food. How are you excited? ?" Yu Hongda thought that since they came to the food area, they must be short of food. As long as he gave them more food, he could impress them and get pistols.
Seeing Zhang Xu's unmoved look, he felt really anxious, so he spoke again: "Little brothers, don't worry, we are just exchanging pistols, and we will let you go safely in the future. We have plenty of food." , I really don’t lack what you have.” These words made me feel generous. After all, they occupy the supermarket and there is really no shortage of food. They have a small grain warehouse on the 8th floor, which has been found by Yu Hongda and the others. .
With such a big temptation, they should immediately nod in agreement! Of course, these thoughts were all Yu Hongda's own daydreams, and they were very reasonable after all. Of course, he didn't know that he was facing Zhang Xu, and the food in the quantum meter on his wrist was now too much to hold.
hehe! Lack of food? I eat 50 cubic meters by myself, which seems to be barely enough.
Zhang Xu was completely disdainful when it came to food, but Wang Junque was not. His eyes shone, he pulled Zhang Xu's arm, and whispered in Zhang Xu's ear: "Brother Xu, why don't we just change it? Let's get a generator by the way." It’s better to leave immediately.”
In fact, Zhang Xu was also very reluctant. After all, a gun can save someone's life at a critical moment, such as saving Wang Jun. Without the pistol, there would be no Wang Jun now.
But when he heard about the generator, Zhang Xu was not short of food, but a generator. So he stroked his chin and pretended to think, and said: "Since we have arrived in your territory, we will also abide by your rules. We have encountered some difficulties, and we must A generator and part of the food, the generator is first and the food is secondary!”
Looking at Zhang Xu's serious expression, Yu Hongda frowned and was thinking about how many lives a generator would cost and whether it was worth it? Food is provided directly, but the generator is only available in the living area on the 9th floor. The thousand or so zombies inside are not vegetarians.
Seeing Yu Hongda's hesitation and feeling that the benefits did not meet his expectations, Zhang Xu immediately said, "My pistol has only fired two bullets, and I still have 98 rounds left. Is it enough?"
When Yu Hongda heard this, his eyes lit up. 98 bullets was a lot. Even if 10 people were lost, it was still worth it. The most valuable thing in the last days is human life, and the least valuable thing is also human life. He immediately said: "Okay! Deal!"
So Zhang Xu said that the pistol was hidden, and went to the 8th floor to secretly open the quantum device and take it out. In order to show his sincerity, Zhang Xu gave a whole box of 50 rounds of bullets to Yu Hongda first.
Yu Hongda said with a smile: "Of course I believe my little brothers, come on, give the food to these two little brothers." So Yu Hongda divided nearly 10 cubic meters of food, most of which was whole grains, only a small part was Some cans and snacks.
As for food such as coarse grains and flour, I lamented that Zhang Xu only knew the legendary skill of making instant noodles. Apart from eating, the skill that is now useful is killing zombies. He had never eaten any of the sweet potatoes, potatoes, flour, etc. in the quantum instrument. It’s very distressing that I can’t cook at all, let alone Wang Jun. Since Wang Jun’s huge wealth, when has he ever cooked?
So we agreed to hand over the gun in one hand and the generator in the other.
So Zhang Xu and Wang Jun were invited to the rest area to be entertained by some beauties. Wang Jun just let nature take its course and could eat as much as they came. However, Zhang Xu did not do this. After all, he had no one except Xuan Zhinuo in his heart. There were other people. She and Xuan Zhinuo had just rekindled their relationship and were in a state of entanglement. How could they be thinking about other women?
Zhang Xu had nothing to do now, so he wandered around and went to the civilian area and slave area on the 10th floor that Yu Hongda mentioned.
It didn't matter that he had just stepped downstairs, but the smell that hit him made Zhang Xu uncomfortable. Although there were windows, the weather was cold during the New Year, and they were closed and not opened. The air was relatively uncirculated. It seemed too crowded due to the large number of people. The tenth floor The construction equipment on display separated everyone. One side was overcrowded, while the other side was sparse with only a few scattered people.
Zhang Xu was observing these people, and those people were also observing him. Some people just glanced at Zhang Xu, and some people just took one more look at the new face and closed their eyes to recharge their batteries. The less If you reduce your activities, you won't be too hungry. If you see Yu Hongda and the others come down, you will know that something is wrong.
Zhang Xu also watched from a distance and did not step forward.
"Please give me something to eat, I'm starving to death." At this time, a man slowly staggered over, his face was thin and as fragile as dry wood, he stretched out his withered arms, and his hoarse voice seemed to have a stone stuck in it. The same thing, I just had to kneel down to Zhang Xu.
"Here you a bag of biscuits." Zhang Xu saw that he was pitiful, so he gave him the biscuits in his pocket. However, after squeezing, the bag was completely filled with biscuit crumbs, but the man snatched it away and ate it with his head down. wolf.
It doesn't matter if it's for one person. He joined forces with others and swarmed Zhang Xu like a tide, almost suffocating him.
"Please give me a bag too."
"Yeah, I haven't eaten in a long time."
"I'm starving."
As an evolver, Zhang Xu had trouble escaping, but he finally escaped because he had no food on him at all and it was all in the quantum device.
It's just that the first person to ask for cookies has been knocked to the ground and stepped on several times. He is dying, as if he will die in the next moment. The cookie bag in his hand has also disappeared, and must have been taken away by others.
"Why are you like this? He is almost dead." Zhang Xu said angrily. He didn't understand why the kind people before the end of the world became like this?
"Humph, what does his life and death have to do with us?"
"If you don't have enough to eat, why should you care about others?"
"I thought I had a lot of food on me, bah, just a bag of crushed biscuits!"
Zhang Xu listened to these people's words, which were like knives being twisted, and they were deeply pierced into Zhang Xu's conscience. Maybe there is really no need for too much kindness in the apocalypse!
"When he dies, let's continue dividing the meat..."
"That's right, let's drag it to a place where no one is around and then we can split up..."
"Hey, she's too thin. She's probably not as good as my wife..."
Several people whispered in low voices, but they could not escape Zhang Xu's ears. They were trembling like thunder. It was terrible. Is this the human heart?
In order to survive, that man's wife would... eat, and her stomach was churning and wanting to come out.
These completely changed Zhang Xu's understanding of the end of the world. Yes, it's the end of the world. Zombies are like water. Who has time to care about the life and death of these people? In the end, he can only rely on himself!
…
With dull eyes, he made an estimate. There are about 70 to 80 people in the civilian area, and there are only 7 people in the slave area. The gap between the left and right is also huge. Although the people in the civilian area are sallow and thin, they at least look a little red.
The same cannot be said for the people in the slave area. Their faces were all in a state of dull eyes and a feeling of lovelessness. It was obvious that they were tortured like this by Yu Hongda and others.
Seeing this, Zhang Xu sighed secretly. He also wanted to save these people. However, he was still a genetically unlocked person and could not survive for long in the apocalypse. When encountering a group of zombies, he still had to walk around without food. The same starvation, but seeing this guy, even death is the best relief.
Relatives, friends, country, and hopes were all crushed one by one by the hateful zombies. Zhang Xu secretly felt lucky for himself. Fortunately, he still had enough food to survive. Fortunately, he still had some ability to protect himself. Fighting with zombies outside, trying hard to survive; I'm glad that I can still take a big breath, unlike them who don't even have the strength to breathe; I'm glad that I can still see the vast sky outside, unlike them who look at Yu Hongda's face like an animal, keeping them in captivity stand up.
I'm glad that I didn't turn into an ugly zombie, wandering around everywhere and leaving no intact corpses; I'm glad that I'm not like them, living day and night and frightened by the zombies; I'm glad that I'm not like them, eating here and there, eating whenever I can. , I was hungry without food, and I didn’t have the courage to look for food. Fortunately, I was not trapped in the closed 10th floor like them, eating and waiting to die. They would eat any scraps given by others, just like pigs and dogs.
So Zhang Xu secretly vowed that as long as he has the ability in the future, he will definitely find out who destroyed this beautiful country Z? Who is it that destroys one family after another and separates them?
…
The original fitness floor on the 10th floor also has many rooms, all of which are various VIP individual fitness rooms. They are not only good in sound insulation but also equipped with beds. I believe that people who are out looking for food should be hanging out with other people in the VIP fitness room at this moment.
Each VIP room was occupied by the stronger people in the civilian area. As for the other civilians, they slept on fitness mats, and the bedding was sponges taken from the fitness equipment to keep warm. As for the slave area, there were only a few people scattered here and there. , sleeping on the floor or in a corner, and most importantly, feeding them rotten fruits and the like, which can only hang them half alive.
Although the civilian areas eat hot pot base, moldy bread and steamed buns, sometimes they can't find food. Yu Hongda will also give them some flour that they can't eat.
Like flour, it was originally a good food, but it is short of water. Now who dares to use tap water to cook? Flour can only be eaten dry. For a while, I even drank stagnant fish water from the seafood area. Although the water was dirty, it was still water filled before the end of the world. Now it has been drank up by everyone. Now I can only drink vinegar, cooking oil and the like. Very good.
Originally, Yu Hongda and the others were afraid of rebellion in the civilian areas. How could they survive without water? Tian seemed to feel Yu Hongda's troubles. Now it was the winter New Year, and suddenly there was a heavy snowfall. The current heavy snow was not contaminated by the virus. The snow was not as black as before and could be turned into water, which prevented people in the civilian area from rioting.
Due to the heavy snowfall, the road was closed instantly, resulting in a very short sight range. If you choose to travel, you will not know if you encounter a group of zombies. Zhang Xu cannot see clearly unless he is within 20 meters. Although you cannot see, the zombies are looking for people. It was still easy to find. Although the smell of strong winds made people's smells erratic, zombies could still rely on their hearing to find prey. The visibility was extremely low due to the continuous snow, and the sudden drop in temperature made Zhang Xu's journey to Zhengzhou even more difficult.
Therefore, Zhang Xu can't rush now. He can only wait for school to stop before making plans. Generator Yu Hongda has already spent all the lives of the slave area plus 20 lives of the civilian area to forcefully lure the zombies away. That's how fast he was. Di helped Zhang Xu find the generator.
Zhang Xu saw the civilian area and the slave area and was about to go back when he saw Uncle Yan Hao lighting a cigarette and walking towards Zhang Xu. He probably wanted to be alone on the rooftop for some quiet time.
Zhang Xu is particularly short of manpower now and wants to win over Yan Hao. He also likes Yan Hao's simplicity and honesty. Of course, apart from these zombies, he is also very good at killing zombies. Otherwise, why would he volunteer to join the search team?
Yes, Yan Hao volunteered. Unlike others, who were forced to join the search team without food. There must be a story in this, but Zhang Xu didn't ask anything. Zhang Xu could see the look in Yan Hao's eyes. It's sad, after all, everyone has secrets that they don't want to tell.
"Uncle Yan Hao, we want to go to Zhengzhou, but there are only two of us, Wang Jun and I, and we need some helpers..." Zhang Xu was interrupted by Yan Hao before he could finish.
"I want to be alone for a while. If you trust me, tell me your address. If I think about it, I will join you." Looking at Yan Hao's vicissitudes of face, Zhang Xu didn't feel comfortable saying anything. He turned around and looked at Zhang Xu again and said : "It's kind to give alms to these people, and it's right not to give to them. You don't need to compete with these people. They are like zombies outside, with no emotions and only food!"
After saying that, Yan Hao lit a cigarette and looked out the window calmly, hoping to soothe his soul and feel calm.
Haha! Can you keep calm when the smoke is so choking? Of course, this was what Zhang Xu was thinking. His thoughts had trampled on cigarette butts several times, but later he did not escape the law of true fragrance published by the great philosopher Professor Wang in the 21st century, but fell into the true fragrance and could not extricate himself.
So Zhang Xu gave Yan Hao the address, and he trusted Yan Hao.
However, the last sentence deeply touched the doubt in Zhang Xu's heart. Is it right for him to do this? Pursue your true heart and don't look at what others think!
This is the end of the world of cannibalism!
…
After exchanging goods, although Yu Hongda got the pistol he dreamed of, his face was really ugly. He thought that like other semi-automatic pistols, one magazine could be equipped with many bullets, and the bullet casing could be removed with one shot. It exited automatically. What’s the result? Zhang Xu's COP pistol can fire up to 4 rounds, and it has to be reloaded after the shot. If someone rushes in and kills him, he will be killed.
So when he switched to the COP pistol, Yu Hongda was in a very bad mood and his face was livid, but he didn't say anything. He went back and thought about it. After all, it was a pistol, but it was a complete antique gun.
Zhang Xu also knew that Yu Hongda would be angry, so there was no need to act based on his face. After all, the food and generator were already known to be transferred to the Hongqi car at the 4S store opposite. No one except Wang Jun knew that Zhang Xu had put the food there. Where to go.
If people watching this want to ask why people in the 23rd century still have pistols, why can't there be a more powerful and novel weapon? It’s the 23rd century, are you old-fashioned when it comes to playing with guns? In fact, there are more high-tech weapons, but they are very powerful. Ordinary police can basically handle it with the help of mechanical guards and some guns. There will be no special use of force unless there is any special crisis.
