The fire completely engulfed the shopping mall, while Zhang Ning stood on the roof, watching the stairs nervously.
But until billowing black smoke burst out from the stairs, Luo Heng's shadow was not seen.
Zhang Ning bit her lip so tightly that she didn't even notice the blood seeping out. Her eye circles were almost involuntarily red...
"Luo Heng..."
"Boom!"
Another muffled sound came from downstairs, and at the same time Zhang Ning felt the ground shake under her feet.
She came back to her senses suddenly, with a trace of deep grief on her face, then she turned around resolutely, stepped on the stairs and climbed to the roof of the building next door.
If you don't leave now, you will fail Luo Heng...
In fact, when Luo Heng asked her to leave, she already had a bad premonition.
At that time, Luo Heng should have already made up his mind to die.
Use your own life in exchange for a glimmer of life for their companions...
What made Zhang Ning feel painful was that she had no way to stop Luo Heng, nor could she find a better way.
Do leads? Countless zombies in the shopping mall were trampled out before the fire reached the gasoline drum.
And the amount of gasoline is not enough to fill the entire shopping mall... In order to implement this plan as safely as possible, they thought of many ways, but in the end they had to let Luo Heng take the risk himself.
Not enough tools. Not enough material. You want to kill thousands of zombies when they crowd the entire shopping mall. How can it be done without taking risks?
In the current environment, survival is such a difficult thing, there is really too much helplessness...
But to Zhang Ning's surprise, when she walked over carefully, she found that there was no one on the roof.
"Where are Ding Yu and Wang Rin... have they left from behind? No,
The two of them shouldn't have left early..."
Zhang Ning looked around suspiciously, then quickly left from the stairs.
It is very likely that this building will also be affected by the fire, but fortunately, there are only two houses and an underground parking lot in the surrounding area. There are no other buildings, and it is located at a wide intersection with open spaces nearby, so the fire will not engulf the entire street.
Although they used this building as a retreat, they would not stay here. Instead, they made an appointment to meet up and immediately headed to the empty street to search for enough supplies.
But what Zhang Ning didn't know was that when she was waiting anxiously on the roof, a zombie was carrying Luo Heng and Wang Lin away from the side door below.
And this scene has long been captured by Ding Yu, and a strange color flashed in his eyes. Then he hurried downstairs.
But the continuous exploding glass windows and the flames bursting out from the shopping mall temporarily separated the zombie from Ding Yu for a period of time.
Wait until Ding Yu finally found a chance. When rushing over with his head in his arms, the zombie and Luo Heng had already disappeared.
There was also a hint of complexity on his face that looked a little cold. Before he even had time to look at the scorched blisters on the back of his hand, he immediately looked around here.
Several zombies that hadn't been completely burned to death approached him with difficulty, but he waved them casually, and several thin short steel bars flew out, hitting these zombies accurately.
"This..." Ding Yu didn't take a second look at the zombies, but focused on a line of blood on the ground.
He dipped his hand on the ground, then put it under his nose and sniffed carefully: "It should be human blood... Is it Luo Heng's, or Wang Rin's? It can open the door, avoid my attack, and bring blood Take the prey... that is a highly evolved zombie."
But then, a look of serious thought flashed in his eyes: "Should we save them? Since so much blood has been shed, it is very likely that they will be eaten immediately as soon as they reach the nest. Go now and save the second half of the corpse." , it doesn't make any sense."
"But after all, it's a companion... It's good to check to see if you've been eaten. If you're already dead, there's no need to do it. It's no good fighting zombies. Zhang Ning should come to the street by herself, after I confirm Come back and join her."
After talking to himself a few words, he turned his head to look in the direction where the bloodstains stretched away, and then followed closely.
Ding Yu's tone was very calm. Although these words were good, if they were heard by others, they would inevitably feel shuddering.
After all, human beings are not completely rational machines, and any thinking has subjective and emotional components in it.
Although he seemed to be defeated by the word "emotion" in the end, his tone made people feel that even if "emotion" was considered, it was because he classified this emotion into the factors that needed to be considered, not because he really My concern for Luo Heng and Wang Lin...
Just as Ding Yu was searching along the intermittent bloodstains, Ling Mo just finished bandaging Luo Heng's wound.
Ling Mo rolled up Luo Heng's trouser legs, pulled out the shard of glass, then sterilized him, and wrapped it with a bandage.
But what really shocked Ling Mo was not the deep wound on Luo Heng's thigh, but the dense scars on his leg.
These wounds didn't last long, and some of them even just scabbed over, but after being tossed and tossed before, they split open again, and the blood flowed down the legs to the feet.
You don't need to look to know that he probably has many such wounds on his body...
It seems that living here is really not easy, and I don't know how Wang Rin came here and got together with them.
Could it be that she didn't return to the survivor camp in Ginkgo Community after she separated from her group?
But Wang Lin is asleep now, even if she wakes her up, she probably won't have the energy to answer these questions, so she can only talk after she wakes up.
"However, the promised military assassin didn't see it at all."
Although Ling Mo rescued the armed policeman because of his appreciation, it doesn't mean he won't take advantage of it.
It's a pity that apart from some sugar and dried fruit, this armed policeman only has a small pocket of bullets.
Of course, Ling Mo didn't leave the rifle behind when he left, but as a layman, Ling Mo wouldn't play with a loaded gun, so he left the gun at the door.
At this moment, Luo Heng also let out a painful groan, and then slowly opened his eyes.
The moment he just opened his eyes, there was a hint of bewilderment in his eyes. It wasn't until he saw Ling Mo that he suddenly became agitated, and his eyes widened instantly.
Then he discovered that this was a human being, not a zombie...
"You are..." He struggled to sit up weakly, and at the same time scanned the entire room vigilantly.
The corpse puppet had already been put in the room by Ling Mo and committed suicide. After the wound was bandaged, without the stimulation of the smell of blood, Shana and Ye Lian had returned to their "normal" appearance. Although Shana's eyes were slightly red all the time, it never attracted people's attention.
Li Yalin, who was the only one who could be identified as a zombie, sat obediently at the corner of the stairs leading to the third floor without being noticed.
Luo Heng quickly noticed Wang Rin. When he saw the blood on Wang Rin's body, he immediately showed a look of surprise, but soon he noticed that Wang Rin's body did not continue to bleed. Bloody cotton wool.
He looked down at his legs, reached out to touch them, and then asked hesitantly, "Did you save me and my companion?"
Ling Mo knew that there were many doubts about his "saving people", so he just nodded and immediately changed the subject: "Well... Actually Wang Lin has something to do with me, so... My name is Ling Mo, may I ask You are?"
"Ah? What a coincidence! It turns out that you know Wang Rin. It's a pleasure to meet you. You gave me Luo Heng a life-saving grace when we met for the first time. I really don't know what to say..." Luo Heng didn't hesitate. Replied hesitantly, he propped up his body sincerely, as if he wanted to bow to Ling Mo, but in the end he had no choice but to give up, "Thank you! Thank you! Really... Thank you very much!"
The words of thanks are very simple, but the tone is very sincere, which can make people feel his sincerity.
Ling Mo smiled slightly, thinking to himself that his momentary admiration was not wrong.
Although in the last days, it was impossible for him to be with the survivors, let alone make any friends, but for this kind of person he admired from the bottom of his heart, Ling Mo still didn't mind helping him if he could.
"I didn't expect there to be survivors on this street. If I had known earlier, I would have contacted you in advance. What happened today should have surprised you too? I'm really sorry."
Luo Heng said with some emotion, he looked at Ling Mo with gratitude and friendliness.
If these words were spoken by another person, it would always make people feel that they looked down on the strength of Ling Mo and his party, but when they came out of his mouth, there was a sense of sincere concern in his tone.
Ling Mo smiled without hesitation. He also knew that he brought three girls with him. The first impression he gave people was that he was a scum with only five combat abilities...
"No, actually we just arrived here today." Ling Mo said briefly.
Luo Heng was taken aback for a moment, then showed a look of shock, and looked at Ling Mo with a different look: "There are countless zombies around here, where did you come from?"
Ling Mo thought that there was nothing to hide, so he said, "X City University."
This time Luo Heng's expression completely changed. He stared at Ling Mo in horror for a while, and then said in admiration: "I didn't expect you to be able to escape from X City University. I thought about it before, and there must be There are survivors, but unfortunately with our strength, there is really no way to get close. Otherwise, I would like to go in and rescue the students inside. However, since you have this strength, you should be a supernatural person, right?"
he asked with some expectation. (To be continued..)
