Chapter 357 New Hope

Big camphor tree base.

The snow melted and the lake surface of Shantang began to gradually thaw.

The sky is blue, the lake is quiet, and the cold wind wakes you up.

There is a fresh smell in the air. Although it is a bit cold, it is even more refreshing.

Everyone went outside and breathed the fresh air.

the other side.

The gymnasium is still under construction. These days, He Chao and others at the base and outside have successively changed a lot of building materials.

This saved them a lot of effort in searching for building materials.

Li Yu stood on the wall and looked at everything in the base, feeling an indescribable sense of accomplishment in his heart.

In the past few days, He Chao and the others came twice more, bringing things in exchange. Li Yu also kept his promise and gave them some food in exchange for the original agreement.

Some trust was also built between each other.

Through He Chao, I got some information from him. Now there is basically no large-scale survivor force in the entire Xin City or in the city.

Most of them are like them, a few, a dozen, dozens of them floating around in various places.

There is no fixed place to live.

For them, no one can stay in one place for too long, because zombies are mobile and they need to constantly avoid zombies.

Not to mention the constant need to find food.

Some people even go all the way south to further places, while some people are unwilling to leave their hometown and just live in the place where they live, struggling to survive.

He Chao, who has traded twice in a row, already has nearly 10 kilograms of rice on hand. If he saves some food, this rice is enough to keep him and his daughter alive for a month.

He Chao was very lucky to be able to finally find Li Yu and the others.

Although they used a lot of things and replaced a little bit of food, it was these foods that kept them alive.

I can't eat enough, but I can survive. That's enough.

No one wants to die.

But just because he could get food in exchange, he had been unwilling to share the news with others. Once there were more people and there was not much food, he would not be able to exchange it.

Moving over long distances is a very dangerous thing in these last days.

This is the same for Captain Tao and others who came from hundreds of kilometers east.

There were not many bullets along the way, and they were all used up before reaching Xincheng.

In addition, many people were injured. Five people were injured on the highway before, and seven people were injured during a zombie siege later.

There were 28 people when we set off, but now there were only 16 people left.

This gave them a heavy punch in their longing-filled hearts, allowing them to see clearly the tragedy of reality.

There is a place 150 kilometers away from Xincheng.

A group of people were having a heated argument.

Hua Chuanxiong pulled Mr. Wang down with his hands tied and slapped him:

"Just because of you, three of my fucking brothers died. We've been gone for three days and we haven't arrived yet!"

Captain Tao and others quickly pulled him away. Captain Tao was also very depressed. In the past two days, two of his men had gone in.

Before they even reached Xincheng, they had already lost half of their manpower.

But there was no other way. Looking at the angry Hua Chuanxiong, he couldn't help but complain: You are even more impatient than me, so you just want to go home.

Captain Tao said:

"Since we are already here and so many of us have died, we are really wasting our time if we don't go. Besides, if we go back now, how will we explain to them when we go back?"

With anger in his eyes, Hua Chuanxiong said angrily: "How come we people have been here these past few days? We still haven't encountered a zombie wave. If it rains and encounters a zombie wave, we all have to answer here.

You asked my brother and Mr. Wu to send more people. You also saw those zombies yesterday. Do you think more people can solve the problem?

If there are too many people, they will feed the zombies! Let's go back directly now, and maybe we can go back safely.

We have all used up our bullets now. What will happen even if you go?

Moreover, this Mr. Wang might be deceiving us. "

Captain Tao glanced at Mr. Wang. This Mr. Wang is also a piece of meat. No matter how you ask him, no matter how you beat him, he will remain stubborn.

Hearing what Hua Chuanxiong said, everyone else looked thoughtful. It was true that this journey was too difficult.

The snow before was really too thick, and now there is still some melted snow and ice on the road.

If the speed increases, the tires will easily slip.

In addition, the zombies we encountered now were also extremely crazy. They chased after people when they saw them. The group of zombies we met yesterday chased them for six kilometers.

Captain Tao saw that everyone was a little discouraged. In fact, he also wanted to go back. This trip felt so worthless.

Try to think about it, if everyone from their safe city came over, the scale would definitely attract zombies.

But Captain Tao then thought about it. He had promised Mr. Wu before setting off that he would definitely complete the mission and find out clearly what Mr. Wang said about the strength of the Xincheng group.

And how much food do they have.

This is the main factor that determines whether Safe City will come.

Thinking of this, Captain Tao took off his duck down black hat and said earnestly: "We have come so far, and we will be there tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Don't you think it's a pity to give up now?

Besides, when we go there, we don't need to risk fighting them. We just need to find out where they are and how much food they have.

We can all explain it when we go back. "

As he spoke, he took Mr. Wang from Hua Chuanxiong and pushed Mr. Wang into the car.

Hua Chuanxiong did not stop him and let Mr. Wang get in the car. He knew very well that they had come here now. If he didn't go to Xincheng to take a look, he would not be able to report back.

His brother would beat him to death.

But after this quarrel, people had different minds and returned to the car and continued to head towards Xincheng.

It's just that everyone has different thoughts in their hearts, and Mr. Wang is also very anxious at this time.

Through the contact in the past two days, he didn't expect that the people in this safe city, although they have guns, have very few bullets. They encountered two waves of zombies a few days ago, and their bullets have been used up.

Isn't this a pit? .

This disappointed him greatly, and the gang was divided into four factions, and the internal fighting was so serious.

It was estimated that he would be beaten to a pulp before he met that gang.

Alas, Mr. Wang sighed.

Sitting opposite him was Captain Tao, and he was even more worried. According to what Wang Xiansheng said in the past few days, the people in Xincheng only had a few guns.

But they had already consumed them when they encountered zombies before. What should they do if they encounter them?

What he was more worried about was that these days, Lao Sun and the others were a little angry because they didn't save them before.

These days, some of them were not willing to listen to orders.

There was not much communication with them, and their car was always following behind the car.

The team was not easy to lead.
