“We can definitely find a suitable weapon. If it doesn’t work out, we can find something else to replace it.” Fang Hao comforted, weaving around a bus that fell on the road. Several zombies had extended their arms from the windows inside, struggling to crawl out. The scene was quite hair-raising, but because they were all entangled together, no one could get out of the car for a while.
While talking, several cars approached from the opposite lane. One of the cars was even emitting black smoke at the rear, and its chassis was scraping the ground. Brakes sounded, and the car crashed into another vehicle in the group with a bang. Both cars cars were forced to stop. However, the other cars in the group did not slow down, especially the cars behind them which instead accelerated and bypassed the two cars in front.
The person in the crashed car opened the window and yelled at the person in the other car, and hurriedly started the car. Finally, it started, and he drove forward desperately, shaking off the car that caused the crash.
He Zizhong didn’t want to be nosy, and neither did Fang Hao who pressed on the accelerator, driving south past the still smoking car. However, he quickly saw a scattered horde of zombies in the front. And the first few were not moving slowly!
“Zizhong…” If they continued head-on like this, those zombies will definitely change targets and chase them. Although they could get rid of them, they will inevitably be entangled.
Although they could deal with such zombies, it does not mean that they are willing to waste time on the road. They do not have many replacement cars – there are only two. If they hit too many zombies along the way, it will be difficult to replace the car if it is broken.
He Zizhong got up and exchanged positions with Fang Hao. After receiving the steering wheel, he drove to the side and drove directly into the farmland on the side of the road. Today, most crops are mostly dead, dried up and desiccated. There were no strange plants within sight thankfully, otherwise He Zizhong would rather hit zombies with the car instead of rushing into the field at the risk of encountering mutant plants.
A few zombies turned around when they heard the sound, and wanted to chase He Zizhong and their car, but at this time, screams and noise came from the smoking car not far in front. The sound of a man and woman arguing drew the attention of these zombies back. Only a few zombies ran into the farmland, chasing He Zizhong’s car.
The two drove away from the zombies chasing them, and after the road was relatively clear, they turned back to the highway and drove towards the destination of their trip.
The northeastern suburb of city F is the industrial zone of the city. Because city F was not only close to city A, but also close to the seashore, many well-known domestic enterprises were located there.
The instant noodle and the pharmaceutical factory they were going to were all production and processing plants of leading domestic companies, and covered a large acreage. The scale of the factories was quite eye-catching.
They were on a very clean and well-maintained road, where one had to be far away to see the gate. The road led to all the large and small production and processing plants around the city F.
The two drove forward, and it didn’t take long to reach the gate of the instant noodle factory. Because the workers were all residents from F city, the factory had a shuttle bus and no staff dormitory nearby, so there were very few zombies present.
When the two drove in, they only saw two zombies wearing security clothes in the duty room. The door was half open. It was not known if there was anything else inside.
After bypassing the office building, the two went straight to the warehouse. As they passed the processing workshop, they could not help but glance at a few cars parked at the door.
“Someone has come?”
He Zizhong paid attention to the license plate numbers of those cars. They were all from the city of F. “It is possible.”
Seeing others at this instant noodle factory was very normal during these times. Especially now that some time has passed since the apocalypse began, and most of the people who have reacted have begun to go out and take action.
The gates of some warehouses were half open, and many boxes containing instant noodles were scattered and collapsed on the ground. It looked as though this place was patronized by people, but there were too many things so it was not fully divided up.
The two are now able to collect supplies into their space without getting off the car as long as they slowed down and circled around the things to be collected. Collecting things through the air was very energy intensive. Fortunately, the two of them can take turns, and the person who is resting can use space water to supplement his mental energy.
He Zizhong drove directly into warehouse no. 3 and went to the depths of the warehouse to collect the entire row of instant noodle boxes that had not been taken one layer after another. This is a domestic production plant, and all the goods sold by this brand to the whole country were produced here, so the inventory was very abundant. They only circled warehouse no. 3 once, but it took three or four recharges of their mental energy to collect things.
“Let’s go.” Judging from the instant noodle boxes and bags stacked in the space, most of the things in the warehouse were collected. But because they were collected neatly, even though half of the warehouse boxes were missing, it was inconspicuous and instead looked as if someone did not replenish the inventory.
Before leaving the warehouse, He Zizhong also took the instant noodles at the door and moved them directly to the back row of the storage.
When they drove out, they saw the cars that had surrounded the factory building at the beginning lined up in a row at the intersection, blocking their way.
Several people stood in the middle of the road with steel pipes in their hands, appearing fierce. Seeing He Zizhong and Fang Hao come out, they shook the steel pipes in their hands and walked to the middle of the road, but their positions were scattered; not everyone dared stand in front of the car. Even if they’re blocking the road, they didn’t have a reinforced body – what if the car rushed over and hit them?!
“You! Come down! Who let you in?! This area is already occupied by us, don’t you know!”
He Zizhong raised his eyebrows and sneered. They occupied it? If this place was really a stronghold, would the outside door remain open? Why was no one guarding the door? Why were there two zombies in the security room? This group just saw they only had one vehicle and wanted to rob them.
The group had only arrived today. They wanted to take their things and leave, but found it much safer than the city. The place was large, there were few zombies, and plenty of food, which made it a good choice. Before they could discuss and plan, they discovered that He Zizhong and Fang Hao went in to get things. The people who already regarded everything here as their personal belongings naturally couldn’t tolerate the pair taking things without notice.
Fang Hao held his fair and handsome face and muttered to himself: If they knew that these people would come to make trouble, they should have emptied all the warehouses just now! I won’t let them stay!
He Zizhong rolled down the car window and put one hand on the window frame. “Your place?”
“Nonsense! Quickly come down for Laozi1he’s talking about himself as if he’s a boss or some bigshot. You want to run after taking other people’s things?!” One person saw there was only He Zizhong and Fang Hao inside, both of them were quiet, young people, and his original worry was immediately swept away. and walked over with the pipe in his hand.
He Zizhong’s hand touched the pile of toothpicks in the car…Yes, it was the toothpicks. Who made these things small plentiful without much use for ordinary people?
Seeing that He Zizhong did not move, two more people followed, patting the pipes in their hands violently to knock on He Zizhong’s door.
“Ah!” The man in front screamed, quickly grabbing his right hand with his left hand, and releasing the pipe he held to the ground, looking at the car with horror.
He Zizhong smiled at him with a good temper: “Can you let our car go now?”
Those who blocked the way were all taken aback, not knowing what method he used to injure the person in front, and took two steps back subconsciously.
There is no order in the world today. Before they came here, they had robbed many people around the city. For those who were acquaintances, it’s fine to take some things, but for those who they don’t know, what happens if they want to plot something and throw them to the zombies. These two young people appeared very evil, how could they dare provoke them?
“Please give way.” He Zizhong pointed to the car in the middle of the road. If they continued to block them, he wouldn’t mind spending a little more effort to blast the car away. In the apocalypse, if one does not want others to make trouble for them, they must show off their strength, so that others will not dare provoke them. Otherwise, just wait to be calculated…
Looking at the bleeding hand of their companion, these people were not so stubborn to keep insisting. A few people climbed into the car, quickly giving way, and watched the black SUV swagger away.
“How is it? Where does it hurt?”
A few people gathered around, staring at the small hole in their companion’s hand in a daze-what did they encounter? What caused it? No one heard any gunshots either! And even a bullet was not so small, right?
“Is it…this?” A companion bent down to pick up a bloody slender object. Several people carefully studied it for a long time before they were sure that it was a bloody…bamboo toothpick? A toothpick? Can a toothpick make a blood hole in your hand?!
“Mar, martial arts masters?!” Is it any wonder that only two people dare to come out looking for supplies? Master! Master! If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, who would have believed that there really were martial arts masters around?!
Martial arts master He Zizhong drove out of the factory gate with his dear, and ended up meeting face to face with another fleet of convoys that came over.
Seeing that there was even a bus in the opposing team… the two were quite stunned.
The other’s car slowed down and stopped. The first car rolled down the window, and one person poked his head out to ask, “Are you just leaving?”
He Zizhong also rolled down the window again: “Yes, there are still a lot of things inside, and several warehouses are basically full.”
The man breathed a sigh of relief: “Is there any water inside?”
“I didn’t pay attention to this.” He Zizhong’s gaze swept back, looking at the full bus knowingly and pointed at the gate behind, “There is a group of people who arrived first…” Halfway into the sentence, his rather hesitant expression made the other party seem to understand the situation inside.
The man once again expressed his gratitude: “Thank you. We are going to stay here for a few days temporarily. We welcome you if you are ready to go back.” The people beside him and behind heard the sound and looked down and checked something. They all escaped from the city. Naturally, they have encountered many people who tried to block the way to rob and divide benefits, and were psychologically prepared for this kind of thing.
Without saying anything, He Zizhong’s car passed by with the new convoy, turning onto the highway, and headed for the next target location.
Some reasonable people for once.
