345, Mutant 08
The door was slowly opened, and Yu Heng hid in the shadow without revealing anything. Zheng's mother only opened it a crack and asked, "Why are you breaking down my door?"
"Hey, aunt, are you willing to open the door?" The man put away the hammer and said with a playful smile: "I've been knocking for a long time and I'm almost exhausted. Where is my little sister? Why didn't she come?" He looked through the crack in the door and saw that it was dark inside. It was so dark that he couldn't see anything, and he said with a dark face: "Let her come out!"
Mother Zheng said stiffly: "What are you doing with my daughter? We don't know you! Please leave quickly, I'm closing the door."
"Hey you old woman!" The man spit out the cigarette and stretched out his feet to crush it. "Don't toast or eat as a penalty. Do you know what you are now? That's a pig in a cage! You can be slaughtered by me. Okay, you If you don't open the door now, I will smash it myself. When it opens, I will kill one person a day. I will kill you first on the first day. Although you look a bit old, you can still eat it. On the second day, I will kill the little sister. , You must taste it before slaughtering it. Old lady, do you want me to tell you how to taste it? I--"
A bullet hit him between the eyebrows, and his expression was fixed in a playful and frivolous manner, with the corners of his mouth even curled up, looking like a rogue. Then he collapsed.
Mother Zheng covered her mouth and did not dare to scream. Blood splashed on her face, flowed down her forehead into her eyes and nose, and was sticky and warm. Feeling a little nauseous, she resisted the desire to vomit, opened the door, and quickly dragged the body to the empty house opposite.
While Yu Heng and Zheng Hengli wiped the blood on the floor, and finally closed the door and nailed the boards again, they both felt like they were dead.
"It's so scary. Fortunately, my little sister hit it accurately. I was scared to death just now."
"Let's go have breakfast." I've been busy since I got up early in the morning, and I'm so hungry that I have stomach acid reflux.
Inside the ajar door, there was a sound coming from one of the locked bedrooms. To put it artistically, it was the sound of ripping silk, but to put it more simply, it was the sound of clothes being torn.
Hiss—hiss—
Black shadows squeezed out from the crack in the door, flowing like black water, spreading a thin layer on the ground, squeezed out of the crack in the door, and then squeezed out of the door. The black shadow paused for a moment at the door of Zheng's house, and then slid towards the corridor. The sensor lights in the corridor were out of power and turned on. In the darkness, I didn’t know where the shadow ended up.
The sky was dark and the sun was not strong today. In a corner of Mingguang Community, a man looked around carefully and got out of the dog hole. A scream came from nowhere, making him tremble.
He gritted his teeth, recognized a direction, and planned to rush over. There is no food at home and he must escape to find food. The man-eating monster guarding his door has left temporarily. He doesn't know when he will come back. He needs to hurry up!
The man ran in the sun, his shadow twisting as he ran. Suddenly he saw a man-eating monster, so he hurriedly hid in the alley. The sound of running was getting closer and closer! He was so frightened that his hands trembled, his eyes fell on the bamboo baskets piled in the alley, his eyes lit up and he hid in, hugging his knees and burying his head.
The footsteps were approaching, coming. Heavy steps dragged, dragging into the alley and walking past the bamboo basket.
The man slowly exhaled a breath that was so hard that his heart, liver, and lungs ached. He left the alley and continued walking. Under the sunlight, his shadow became deeper and continued to change as he ran. However, as long as someone looks carefully, they will find that the changes in his movements and the changes in the shadow are not synchronized. of.
As he was running, Nanre suddenly felt that his feet were a little heavy. He glanced down and unconsciously glanced behind him, his pupils contracting instantly. There is a black shadow standing in the pupil.
"Your dad hasn't come back yet, and I can't make calls. What should I do?" Two days later, Zheng's father still hadn't come back. After getting angry, Zheng's mother began to worry again. She kept pressing the phone, but the signal was weak. One cell is empty.
What can be done? All we can do is wait.
After anxiously waiting and looking forward to it, Father Zheng finally came back after two days! Zheng's mother was overjoyed when she heard the doorbell being called, and quickly called her daughters to help open the door. Yu Heng looked through the peephole and saw that it was indeed Zheng's father, and his sister-in-law Zheng Min was holding the child next to him.
Zheng Hengli started to light candles to illuminate the living room, and then helped close the door when everyone came in. Zheng Min called out, "Sister-in-law." Zheng's mother sighed and asked, "Did the journey go well? Were you not injured?"
"No, I'm carrying a gun. Those mutants don't dare to fight head-on." Father Zheng said, "Get some food for Minmin and I, and milk for Taotao."
"OK."
Father Zheng smiled and asked his two daughters: "Nothing happened at home these days, right?"
Yu Heng replied: "It's nothing, everything has been resolved."
"Where!" Zheng Hengli retorted, "Dad, don't listen to what my little sister said is easy, we almost died!" Barabala sneaked into Li Shuning's bedroom in the middle of the night to sneak attack, and the mutant smashed the door with a hammer. Finally, he said aggrievedly: "Dad, I was scared to death." It was said to be a complaint, but it was actually a complaint. Zheng Min smiled awkwardly: "Fortunately nothing happened, alas." She lowered her head to comfort the child.
Father Zheng touched Zheng Hengli's head and patted Yu Heng on the shoulder: "Thank you for your hard work."
"Dad, what's the situation outside? Have you encountered the police or the army?" Yu Heng was still concerned about the news outside.
Father Zheng shook his head: "No. Isn't the street in front of your sister-in-law's house the branch of the xx Armed Police? I heard from your sister-in-law that there was chaos inside from the day the turmoil started, and all you could hear was the sound of sirens."
"Yes, it's just a street away. Our community just didn't wait for rescue. There were too many cannibals. Taotao and I hid at home and didn't dare to go out. We didn't dare to answer anyone who came, so we pretended not to be at home. Zheng Min continued, recalling: "About six days later, I heard an explosion at home. The sound was so loud that I felt like the ground was shaking."
"This time when I went to pick up your sister-in-law, I passed by the gate of the armed police branch. It looked like there was no one inside." Father Zheng said with some seriousness: "In your neighborhood, gunshots can often be heard."
Yu Heng thought for a while: "Dad, I suspect that those mutants joined forces to overthrow the police force." He calculated: "From the time point of view, it seems to be right."
"That's what I guessed too. I just hope the army will come over quickly!" Father Zheng stood up and said, "I'm going to take a bath. Is there any water?"
"Yes, but there is no hot water."
"That's okay, I'll just wash it with cold water."
As soon as Zheng's father left, Zheng Min fed the child with milk. Zheng's mother sat next to him and didn't know what to say. She was still a little embarrassed towards her sister-in-law. She didn't let her husband pick someone up a few days ago, and she didn't know if her sister-in-law knew about it. If she knew, wouldn't it be very embarrassing now...
Yu Heng went back to his house to practice. At night, his sister-in-law Zheng Min slept in their bedroom, and he and Zheng Henli slept on the same bed. Because it was the first night, Yu Heng was still more wary of Zheng Min, but the night passed without any problems, so it was still a good thing.
Another good thing is that after Zheng's father came back, the shouting and knocking outside their house stopped. Zheng's mother said, "Those mutants must have seen your father coming back. There must be a man at home." , outsiders don’t dare to bully her.” Zheng Hengli believed that in her previous life, wasn’t it because she and her mother seemed easy to bully? Yu Heng also laughed, but there was a smell of blood lingering on the tip of his nose that could not be washed away.
He looked at Zheng's father, who was playing with Liu Taotao and raised his head high. The four-year-old child giggled. Zheng Min said quickly: "Brother, stop playing with him. It's too loud for the cannibals outside to hear." "
"It's okay, don't be afraid."
The candlelight flickered in the house, and Yu Heng and Zheng's mother were packing up the household supplies. According to the warning in Zheng Hengli's dream, the army will pass by their street tomorrow. Things must be packed first, and everything that can be carried must be taken away. It is very important to pack well. Zheng Min saw that her sister-in-law and nieces were busy, and her eldest brother liked Taotao playing with him, so he also walked over to help clean up.
"Hey Minmin, go and sit down, I don't need your help."
"Sister-in-law, you're welcome. I'll help you." Zheng Min said to Yu Heng and Zheng Hengli, "You go and play. Auntie will come." She insisted, and Yu Heng went back to the room. Zheng Hengli said, "I'll accompany you." "Aren't you going to play with Taotao?" "No, I want to take a nap."
He performed the body-building technique twice in his bedroom, and after finishing it, he practiced the general body-building technique for a week. After completing the whole exercise, stains oozed from his body. This was the effect of taking the Marrow Cleansing Pill. Similarly, he did not eat the entire marrow-cleansing pill, but scraped a little bit of the powder and soaked it in water every day, so the effect of removing sewage from his body was not noticeable. Only Zheng Hengli, who shared the same bed with him, said in disgust that he smelled bad. He blamed it on the suffocating smell of sweat caused by the lack of air circulation in the house without air conditioning.
"Maybe the corpse across the door stinks. The stench comes in and makes the whole house stink. Sister, your sense of smell is polluted." This reason made Zheng Hengli's face turn green.
I went to the bathroom and took a shower. When I was washing clothes, the water from the faucet became thinner, and then after a few drops, there was no water at all. The water supply in the community was cut off, which was another piece of bad news. Zheng's mother was a little uneasy and asked Zheng Hengli again and again: "Are you sure the army will come tomorrow?" After asking too many questions, Zheng Hengli began to doubt herself, so she simply said: "Mom, stop asking." , If you don’t come, you will definitely come. If the water is cut off, the water will be cut off. Anyway, I bought a lot of bottled water before, which is enough!”
The next day, as the sun set, the Zheng family all looked heavy because the army did not come. Since her rebirth, Zheng Hengli feels that she has been very lucky. My sister is not dead, and her abilities are quite good. Although her temper was very annoying in the past, now is the end of the world. As long as she can do something, she can ignore everything else. As the eldest sister, she thinks she still has this kind of heart. Another thing is that her father is always at home, which also reverses the regret of separation of relatives in her previous life.
How difficult it was in my previous life! The two women were alone at home. After finishing their food, there was only uncooked rice left in the house. There was no gas or electricity, so in the end we had to soak rice in water and eat it. Just like that, the mutants didn't let them go either.
The door of their home was smashed open, and the mother and daughter killed the mutant outside as if they were dead - the mutant was Uncle Zhou next door. He knew the details of their family and never gave up breaking down the door. After three days and three nights of smashing, the door was broken open. The door of the house was broken down, so every family had to knock on the door and beg, and finally someone was willing to take them in. Then it was time to hide in the dark again. She counted the days in a daze, remembering that it was today! Today is the day to gain hope, how could she remember it wrong!
Seeing her daughter's expression distorted, Zheng's mother felt extremely distressed and hugged her quickly: "Sister! Hengli! Stop thinking about it! Stop thinking about it! It's just a dream, it doesn't matter, it's just a dream..." Zheng Hengli's expression really frightened her. , biting her lips and staring straight ahead, as if a taut string was about to break in the next second!
After coaxing her for a while, Zheng Hengli slowly came back to her senses, hugged Zheng's mother and cried loudly: "Mom, I'm scared, I'm so scared..." "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, mom is here, don't be afraid..."
Yu Heng also quickly adjusted his mentality and made adjustments for the next plan. Since the army didn't come today, should they continue to wait, or meet the army halfway? Both plans have their pros and cons. He didn't accept everything Zheng Hengli said. It's not that he didn't trust her, but this mission world is not necessarily Zheng Hengli's "previous life". It's impossible for all the details to be exactly the same. The superposition of differences in details is likely to bring different progress.
He talked about this with Zheng's father and asked him about his next plan. Zheng's father smoked and waved his hand: "Don't worry about it. Your eldest sister is in a bad mood. You should accompany her more." "Got it."
Yu Heng didn't get any news from Zheng's father. Zheng Hengli slept uneasily that night. Zheng's mother slept with her. Yu Heng practiced until one o'clock in the morning before lying down to sleep. Not long after falling asleep, he heard bursts of gunfire. He immediately got up and listened carefully. The gunfire was indeed dense, and he even heard the sound of artillery.
Soon, the others woke up too. After all, it was quiet at night, and mutants were also human beings, and they had to sleep at night. The only living people left in Mingguang Community were a little excited. Behind countless dark windows, there was a pair of eyes, eagerly and expectantly looking at the light in the distance.
"Have the rescuers arrived?"
