Chapter 72: A False Joy
Gu Fei was not really afraid. She had seen zombies before, so why would she be afraid of refugees? And she had a lot of weapons in her space.
In the end times when zombies broke out, weapons were life-saving.
The military factory at the base was producing wooden ammunition day and night.
In her space, there were two Type 95 light machine guns, three Type 92 pistols, and one Type 81 heavy machine gun. These were all domestically produced and previously supplied to the troops, and there were too many bullets to use up.
When she died, she was still holding a heavy machine gun, but it was a pity that she couldn't bring it with her.
There were still quite a few grenades in the space.
There was no way, because she was a weakling with only space powers, so she relied on these to save her life, but in the end she didn't save her life.
However, she couldn't use these things unless it was absolutely necessary. These weapons were beyond this era, and the court would not allow such dangerous factors to exist.
Gu Zhang concluded, "Let's do this for now. It will take another ten days to reach Xishan County. Don't worry too much. There will always be a way."
Everyone set off with heavy hearts. The mule carts were parked next to each other, and the distance was much closer than before.
Seeing the heavy atmosphere, Uncle Ma shouted, "You can rest early today. There is an inn next to the official road more than 20 miles ahead. If you walk faster, you can get there by the end of the hour."
Everyone cheered up and moved forward again.
After walking for more than an hour, Zhang Laoda sent his niece Zhang Xiaocui to the front to ask Uncle Ma, "Uncle Ma, how long will it take to get to the inn? I have no water to drink at home."
Yesterday, a water jar in her family was broken, so she had one less jar of water.
Uncle Ma looked at the roadside and thought for a long time, "It's almost there, at most another quarter of an hour."
Zhang Xiaocui ran back to tell Zhang Lao Da, "Uncle Ma said it's almost there, at most it will be there in a quarter of an hour."
Zhang Lao Da was so thirsty that his throat was smoking. He thought that he would have to get another water jar when he got to the inn, because the water would not be enough.
After walking for about another quarter of an hour, Uncle Ma shouted, "The inn is just around the corner, come on everyone!"
Uncle Ma drove the car at the front of the team. After turning the corner, he was stunned by the roadside in front. The place where the inn should have been was only a scorched earth, and a few blackened rafters were lying on the ground.
He drove the car to the front, stopped the car, and sighed to Gu Zhang, "It seems that we have to rest in the wild today."
The cars behind all caught up. Zhang Lao Da stopped the car and looked around to see if there was any inn. He hurried to the front: "Uncle Ma, where is the inn?"
Uncle Ma pointed to the ruins on the side of the road: "Look, that's not it."
Zhang Lao Da looked at the charred area, opened his mouth wide, and said for a long time: "Then where to rest tonight? And, my family has no water, what should I do?"
Everyone gathered around one after another, and Uncle Ma spread his hands, "I didn't know that the inn was burned. I lived here a few years ago."
The village chief came up, "What should I do, my family doesn't have much water."
Gu Zhang looked at Uncle Ma, "Where is the inn nearby?"
Uncle Ma looked up at the sky and shook his head, "The nearest town is more than 80 miles away."
