Tang Xin sorted out the supplies again and looked at the streets outside, but no human beings were found except for the "heh~~heh~" sounds of the zombies.
Now people have also discovered that these zombies seem to have poor eyesight. If there is a sound, they will immediately run towards the place where the sound is coming. When they run over and find that it is a human, they start to bite.
The sense of smell seems to be better than that of humans. There are relatively more zombies around buildings with many people.
It seems that we need to clean up some zombies at ordinary times, otherwise it will be like making snowballs, and there will be more and more.
It was impossible for him to clear it all by himself. Tang Xin had never killed zombies before, and since he had no partner to cooperate with, it was not practical to fight alone.
No matter what, I still have supplies anyway, so I'll just wait for a while.
…
Tang Xin hid in the rental house for three days. On the morning of the fourth day, there was a knock on Tang Xin's door.
Tang Xin put down the bread in her hand, picked up the big knife and pressed it against the door, listening carefully to the movement outside the door.
There were three more knocks on the door, and Grandma Chen's voice from the opposite door came, "Tang Xin? Are you at home?"
Tang Xin didn't answer. Those who were supposed to come would always come. Did Grandma Chen find out that she was back?
Grandma Chen knocked harder and harder. Tang Xin held the handle of the knife with her fingers until they turned white.
As long as anyone outside the door dares to break in, Tang Xin will chop him down with a big knife.
Grandma Chen's old man said next to her, "You are wrong. This woman probably hasn't come back. I watched her drive out before."
"I saw the lights on at her house in Maoyan last night. She must be inside." Grandma Chen lowered her voice and said to the old man next to her, "Didn't you hear this damn girl? What are you doing inside? Why didn't you come and open the door?"
lamp! Is this old woman so thoughtful? It seems that she tries to turn on the lights as little as possible at night.
Outside the door, Mrs. Chen was still knocking harder, but Tang Xin didn't answer. After a while, Mrs. Chen guessed that Tang Xin had no intention of opening the door.
After wandering at the door for a while, he probably didn't want to turn against Tang Xin yet, so he turned around and went back.
Tang Xin breathed a sigh of relief. It had been three days, and he probably had finished eating the food at home and wanted to borrow it from Tang Xin.
Tang Xin was not familiar with the neighbors here. It had only been a little over a month since she moved here. She usually left early and came home late, so the chance of meeting each other was low. Mrs. Chen was the only neighbor she met occasionally and exchanged a few words with.
She knew that Tang Xin was not planning to stay there for a long time from the beginning and was planning to travel.
However, Mrs. Chen often saw Tang Xin coming back with large and small bags of shopping, so she didn't know what she had bought. There must be food for traveling and food on the road.
Human nature is greedy. When hunger reaches the extreme, the evil side will burst out. At that time, grabbing supplies will only be a small problem. If you don't grab enough supplies, you will be killed.
And when a person is extremely hungry, who knows what he will start eating?
Tang Xin found a rag and planned to plug the crack in the door, trying to prevent them from finding anyone else in the house.
I finished the unfinished bread with soy milk and took the stomach medicine. I don't know if it was because I felt depressed and nervous in the past two days. Once I just ran to the toilet and vomited up after eating. I even curled up on the floor with colic that I hadn't seen for a long time.
The last time I checked, I thought that my stomach would recover after it had developed in a good direction, but I didn't find that it had started to develop in a bad direction again.
In the last days, it will be difficult to live, and it will be even harder to carry cancer patients.
Tang Xin comforted herself in her heart, it doesn't matter, there will always be opportunities, there is no perfect path!
The next morning, Tang Xin's door was knocked again, this time with greater force.
"Tang Xin, I am Grandma Chen. I know you are inside. Please open the door. I want to exchange food with you."
Mrs. Chen and her wife discussed it last night and guessed that Tang Xin didn't open the door because she was afraid of being robbed of food.
Tang Xin still didn't open the door. If she remembered correctly, the door downstairs of this building was locked to prevent zombies from entering. But I'm not sure if there are any zombies in the building. After all, some people may have been bitten and returned with injuries.
You can also lock yourself at home and not come out, or you can eat your family members at home.
It is now the fourth day of the zombie outbreak in this building, and some people who are not cooking at home have begun to run out of food.
Some families have rice, but most of them have no food. In other words, the first batch of people who are short of food will start to really starve!
Which one is more dangerous, the people running out of food inside the building or the zombies eating people outside?
Tang Xin asked herself twice, and she still felt that people were more dangerous.
If zombies eat people, they will also eat people. In addition to eating people, people will also do other things!
Tang Xin felt that she still had to hide well and never show her face.
Mrs. Chen didn't knock on Tang Xin's door again this time, and she became irritable. She began to curse and say anything unpleasant outside the door.
Tang Xin frowned and remained silent.
Mrs. Chen started knocking on another neighbor's door again.
They don't have much food at home. At first, they just ran out of food. They could still eat some rice mixed with soy sauce, but they saw that the rice at home was about to bottom out. If they couldn't borrow more food, they would be bitten by zombies. Die but starve to death!
The neighbor couldn't bear it anymore and opened the door for them yesterday. Mrs. Chen bought a potato for 200 yuan and went back. She wanted to buy some more rice, but they wouldn't sell it.
Today, no matter how Mrs. Chen knocks, the house will not open. Mrs. Chen cursed in a low voice outside, and the people inside began to curse back. The two of them gradually began to raise their voices. Finally, the wife yelled that anyone who brought in zombies would die, and Mrs. Chen stopped talking.
Mrs. Chen went to another floor and knocked on the door. Tang Xin put the cat-eye lid back on and turned to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
Now more and more people will be short of food. Tang Xinde must be careful when cooking so that others won't find out that she still has a lot of food in store. I can't cook dishes that are too fragrant for fear of being thieves.
After a simple lunch, Tang Xin took a nap comfortably, opened the curtains a crack and observed the situation outside.
There are zombies wandering on the street, and there are zombies crawling in at the door downstairs. However, the zombies can only move their left foot and right foot, squeezing in desperately, and they can't climb yet.
Otherwise, some of the balconies on the second floor that were not closed would climb onto the balconies and enter the residential buildings.
These zombies don't seem to have very high IQs, so it would be good if they stay like this.
The zombies are so idle, the chance of survival is quite high when they go out to find supplies.
Two days passed like this, and the brief peace was finally shattered by Mrs. Chen knocking on the door.
Mrs. Chen knocked on the door all the way to the second floor. Originally, the family on the first floor was a porter, and both father and son were porters. When the zombies broke out on the first day, her son was bitten by the zombies and started to have a fever after returning home.
Originally, his family was afraid that he would turn into a zombie, so they locked him in his room. But after he had a fever for almost a day, his family saw that he had not turned into a zombie, so they opened the door and gave him water. The tragedy happened like this. After feeding him water, I thought he would survive, but he started convulsing and then turned into a zombie.
Then everyone in the family was infected. Mrs. Chen also knocked on the door of this house yesterday and heard noises inside. No one said anything, so she thought it was just ordinary people who didn't open the door.
The family were all honest people, so Mrs. Chen thought they didn't dare to open the door, so she discussed with her wife and broke in directly.
"Old man, come and break open this door." Mrs. Chen tried and the door was indeed locked from the inside and could not be opened.
The old man took the hammer in his hand and smashed it directly against the door handle. The door was still very strong. When the old man got tired of smashing, he replaced Mrs. Chen.
The two men smashed open the door for nearly half an hour.
The two looked at each other, and the old man opened the door with a hammer and prepared to rush in. However, what was waiting for them was a family of six zombies!
Mrs. Chen screamed and immediately pulled the old man and ran away. How could the two old men outrun the zombies? Besides, they had been banging on the door for so long and were already exhausted.
When they knocked on the door, the zombies heard the sound and came to the door. As soon as the old man opened the door, the zombies rushed over.
In the end, the two old men were knocked down by zombies before they even reached the stairs.
And the residents of Tang Xin's building have fallen into new dire straits.
