After three hours of running around, Li Fugui finally led his team out of the city. The high-rise buildings behind him gradually disappeared into layers of mist, and the sound of artillery in the city gradually disappeared.
On both sides of the road are endless fields of farmland, most of the crops cultivated in them have died, leaving only some unknown plants that have survived through dark transformation.
In the distance, you can vaguely see the undulating hills, among which the low houses in the countryside are located.
Many hungry, dizzy men, women, old and children lay on the frozen and stiff ground, carefully rummaging for insects, earthworms, and even field mice or other creatures that had been frozen to death under the soil. When he finds one, he will quickly stuff it into his mouth, or hide it on his waist or chest.
The cold wind penetrated into the body like a bone-scratching steel knife along the gaps between the clothes, causing pain on the skin. Li Fugui tightened his tight cotton jacket and turned around to get into the bus.
Lu Zijing and Wang Tianxuan had already gotten into the car. At this time, they were sitting on both sides of the bus and looked around warily. Their blood-stained cotton-padded jackets were thrown aside.
Qian Dewang smiled seductively and chatted with his wife Fang Wan. Maybe they were talking about some private topics between husband and wife. Fang Wan's face turned red with embarrassment, like a ripe apple.
Qian Dewang's son Qian Shenzheng and Wang Sufen's son Wang Haoran were chatting. The two of them seemed to have a sympathy for each other like heroes who hate meeting each other late. Every time Li Fugui saw them, they were either sleeping or chatting.
Gao Hechuan and Zhu Huizhi stood beside Wang Sufen who was driving the bus, chatting wordlessly, looking at the road in front of them.
Wang Sufen deliberately avoided those things on the road, but there were too many people on the road. Sometimes there were a few twisted corpses that had been trampled by the crowd, and sometimes there were people who had fainted due to hunger. The bus always made a fuss. Tiny bumps.
Shen Aotian and Chen Xingle didn't know where they went. Li Fugui searched for a long time but couldn't find any trace of them. Finally, Lu Zijing learned that they got on the roof of the car to guard the surrounding area.
Li Fugui found a place to sit down and prepare to rest for a while. Maybe Shang Kongshan would send someone to them to deal with the bugs at some point. It was important to seize the time to recover his strength, not to mention that if anything happened, he would need to rely on his vitality to solve it.
The energy in Lu Zijing, Wang Tianxuan and Zhu Huizhi's bodies recovered very slowly, and the only ones they could rely on in the short term were himself, Shen Aotian and Qian Dewang.
Li Fugui's insect beetles were still intact, but Wang Tianxuan's was in tatters. Li Fugui was looking for an opportunity to get him a new beetle. He didn't want Wang Tianxuan to be able to attract three insects. If something happens to Firepower's human shield, his team's strength will drop a lot.
The crowd moved forward lifelessly, with no sound except the footsteps and the cold wind whistling outside the windows. There were no screams or noises, they just moved forward in an empty but crowded manner...
Suddenly Li Fugui jumped up for no apparent reason, and the people on the bus looked at him blankly.
He had just taken a nap and vaguely remembered having a nightmare. In the dream, the people on the bus suddenly disappeared and he was left alone. Countless insects emerged from the dim sky, flooding in like a flood.
He wanted to run, but the bug soon caught up with him. When he picked up the pistol and pulled the trigger, he was horrified to find that the vitality in his body had mysteriously disappeared. When the bullet hit the bug, it was covered by the bug's layer of light red protection. Cover resists.
In desperation, the bugs surrounded him and tore his body into pieces, leaving only his head watching as his body was eaten clean by the bugs bit by bit.
At the last moment, he woke up.
Li Fugui frowned and sat down again. He didn't expect that he would suddenly fall asleep under the current situation. It might be because of other people's warning, but he couldn't do this again, otherwise he might die without knowing how. .
At this time, Shen Aotian jumped off the roof of the car, attracting everyone's attention.
Walking up to Li Fugui, Shen Aotian said in a deep voice: "Something happened back there, you have to come and take a look."
When Li Fugui heard this, he couldn't help but shuddered and began to think wildly. Could it be that the dream he just had came true? Can the army’s defense line hold up? Are the bugs chasing me?
There was no time to think about following Shen Aotian and climbing onto the roof. Following his gaze, Li Fugui found that a passenger bus had appeared not far behind the bus. The passenger bus looked shabby, as if it had experienced a severe battle not long ago. Half of the roof had been lifted off by an unknown force, and the other half of the roof had been blown precariously by the cold wind. The front of the car was smashed to pieces, and even the rolling axle could be seen inside. The only remaining headlight shakily illuminated the road ahead.
It’s hard to imagine that such a car can still drive normally on the road.
"What's wrong?" Li Fugui asked. In his opinion, there was nothing strange about the bus. It looked like just a normal bus, moving slowly among the fleeing people.
Shen Aotian shook his head after hearing this and said, "Look carefully, don't you think there is something strange about that car? What force do you think can destroy that car like this?"
Li Fugui pondered for a few seconds. A word appeared in his mind involuntarily, and then goosebumps appeared all over his body.
insect!
right! Only bugs can destroy a car to such an extent, and only bugs can almost lift off the entire roof of a car!
Following this line of thinking, Li Fugui understood what Shen Aotian meant.
Being attacked by bugs, surviving the destruction of bugs, and driving the car out, I can't think of anyone other than the esper Li Fugui who could do it.
In this case, there should be many ability users in that bus, and their abilities are quite good, otherwise it would be impossible to survive in the hands of the bug and drive out of the bus alive.
"I discovered that car when you went to kill the insects, and I have been observing the movement of that car." Shen Aotian continued, "Just now, I saw a few people get out of their car. They were obviously They are capable people because they can move forward and retreat easily in a crowded crowd."
"They deliberately hid in the crowd and watched our bus for a long time, but they didn't know that I had actually discovered them a long time ago. I will notify you as soon as they leave."
"I feel like they may be targeting us, so we have to be careful."
After listening to Shen Aotian's words, Li Fugui's expression became serious.
In troubled times, the dangers are not only the rampant insects, but also the threats from the same race that need to be watched out for!
Li Fugui has no doubt that people in troubled times will do anything for supplies.
"You continue to monitor them. If they make any further movements, notify me as soon as possible. I have to tell them the news." After Li Fugui finished speaking, he climbed into the car again.
He had to inform everyone to prepare, otherwise it would be too late when the group suddenly launched an attack.
