Chapter 94 Cleaning Up
Listening to the shouts in the horn gradually faded away, Lu Yu exhaled a heavy breath.
He originally planned to ask Zhang Ning to press the loudspeaker at the intersection and use the sound to attract the zombies around the community so that his subsequent plan could be implemented.
But what he didn't expect was that not long after Zhang Ning turned on the amplifier, he actually turned back and walked around the community twice arrogantly, attracting almost all the zombies around him behind him.
And before leaving, he waved at him!
After looking at the restless long-tongued zombies in the security booth, Lu Yu whispered.
"It's really enviable that this kid won't be bitten by zombies. He can almost come and go freely in this world after the disaster..."
Although the zombies around the community were attracted by the movements caused by Zhang Ning, Lu Yu still did not relax completely. After glanced around with vigilance, Lu Yu hurriedly walked towards the residential building.
He also needs to find a suitable location to dispose of all the bodies inside and outside the corridor.
When Lu Yu thought of the corpse, he naturally thought of Yao Peiqing. When he thought of Yao Peiqing, a strange smile appeared on his expressionless face without any warning.
Why did Yao Peiqing suddenly become zombies?
Of course this is not a coincidence, but Lu Yu did it intentionally, or rather, it was the result of Lu Yu's "unintentional action".
During the first few days of the disaster, Lu Yu used various containers to collect water in order to prevent the supply of tap water from being inconvenient to life, which resulted in the plastic buckets and plastic basins at home filled with tap water.
These tap water stored in buckets are certainly not for drinking.
At that time, Lu Yu was worried that there might be problems in these tap water, so he boiled bottled mineral water and then replaced the daily drinking water.
It was later proved that the caution at that time allowed him to survive and did not become a walking corpse.
The empty bottles that had been poured out of mineral water were also used by Lu Yu, refilled with tap water, marked them and stuffed them back into the box.
This kind of water bottle filled with tap water is not too much or too little. It happened that a box of twelve bottles was stuffed in the corner by Lu Yu.
Only Xiaoran, who lived with Lu Yu at the time, knew about this. After processing this box of bottled tap water, Xu Xiaoxiao came to visit with a kitchen knife.
Things happened afterwards were urgent and complicated, and the special box of "mineral water" was soon forgotten by Lu Yu and Xiao Ran in the corner.
It was not until that day when Yao Peiqing proposed to transport some food that Lu Yu suddenly remembered that he seemed to have a box of mineral water filled with tap water.
I don’t know if it was the arrangement of fate or Yao Peiqing’s habit.
The box of mineral water placed in the corner was actually picked out by her.
Lu Yu actually wanted to tell him, but Yao Peiqing's disgusting attitude did not win Lu Yu's favor, so he simply pretended that he had seen nothing and let the selfish old woman take his own actions.
Even afterwards, he generously agreed to continue carrying food.
Because at that time, Yao Peiqing was already a dead person in his eyes.
Although Lu Yu didn't know the probability of the human body's natural immune virus, he believed that without the help of aspirin, the probability of Yao Peiqing becoming a strengthener was almost zero.
However, what he didn't expect was that Yao Peiqing had become a zombie after so long.
According to his idea, Yao Peiqing should have quietly turned into a zombie at home the night he moved out of the food.
After all, before this, Xu Xiaoxiao had a high fever not long after drinking tap water and entered an infected state.
"I don't know if it's the long incubation period of the secondary virus, or if it's too late for Yao Peiqing to drink tap water..."
After talking silently in his heart, Lu Yu dispelled the thoughts in his mind and walked into the residential building.
Lu Yu soon arrived on the second floor. Yao Peiqing's body was wrapped in a bed sheet, and Xu Xiaoxiao stood by the door in full arms. It seemed that he had been waiting for a while.
"Do you have a mask? It's best to bring it with you."
After taking the rubber gloves handed over by Xu Xiaoxiao, Lu Yu asked in a word.
Xu Xiaoxiao looked at Mr. Ni next to him in confusion, saying that he was not sure whether he had masks at home.
"I remember there should be some in the cabinet, so I'll look for it..."
Shao Xiuqi, who was beside him, whispered, but his voice trembled, as if he was frightened by something huge.
Lu Yu was slightly stunned when he saw this, but then, based on the previous incident, he quickly reasoned out the reason why Shao Xiuqi was abnormal in his heart.
As a normal person, for the first time I saw a zombie transformed from a human being being shot and killed, I would definitely be scared.
Although she had seen Lu Yu saw the terrifying scene of the head of the phase-level zombie before.
But compared to a human like Yao Peiqing who could communicate normally in the last second, but in the next second, the scene where he turned into a zombie and was killed is still very different.
After all, the former is a heterogeneous species, while the latter is a homogeneous species.
The scene where Xiao Ran shot Yao Peiqing was like shooting a human in front of everyone.
The psychological impact caused to Shao Xiuqi and others can be imagined.
"Do I have to explain so that everyone can treat me as a perverted murderer?"
Lu Yu muttered in his heart that Shao Xiuqi was moving very quickly and found the mask after a while.
This mask is not an ordinary medical mask, but an N95 mask with a higher protection level. It can effectively isolate dust or most bacteria in the air and achieve the purpose of protecting the respiratory tract.
"That's really good, this mask is really good!"
Lu Yu took the N95 mask and exclaimed from the bottom of his heart.
At the same time, it seemed like I remembered something and added to Shao Xiuqi.
"Well, don't be afraid. As long as you don't become a zombie and follow the arrangements, I think there will be no major problems with our relationship..."
Lu Yu's lips curled up and showed a self-friendly smile to Shao Xiuqi.
But after this kind smile combined with his words, it became a little weird in Shao Xiuqi's eyes. In addition, her thoughts were distracted, and the meaning in her mind became the following.
"You must be obedient, otherwise you don't have to wait for you to become zombies, and I can kill you..."
Shao Xiuqi showed horror on her face, nodded like a chicken pecking at the rice, quickly took a few steps back, and hid behind Yan Hanfeng.
"Well, it's very good. It seems that the necessary explanations and a friendly smile will help to pull the relationship between people. You must take more methods when getting along with people in the future..."
Lu Yu, who lacked empathy, did not see the fear revealed in the other person's expression at all. Instead, he boasted proudly in his heart and included this wrong communication method into his treasure house of experience.
"Xiao Xiao, let's go and throw this body outside the community wall..."
Lu Yu said, bent down to prepare for transport, but seemed to have thought of something again, and suddenly stopped Xu Xiaoxiao's movements.
"Uh, wait a moment..."
While speaking, Lu Yu lifted the sheet covering Yao Peiqing's head, revealing the two crossbow arrows on her head.
Lu Yu stretched out his hand, held one of the crossbow arrows, and used a little force on his arm, trying to pull it out.
But the crossbow was nailed tightly into the skull without any movement.
Seeing that he couldn't pull it out at once, Lu Yu felt a little irritated. The strength on his arm increased a little, but the crossbow arrow was still firmly nailed to the head of the corpse. Instead, because Lu Yu used too much force, Yao Peiqing's head was driven by the crossbow arrow and raised it up.
"Why are you so dead..."
Lu Yu muttered in his heart, stretched out his left foot with conditioned reflex and stepped on Yao Peiqing's hideous face.
With the strength of his left foot as a fixation, Lu Yu exerted force on his waist and back, and suddenly pulled out the crossbow arrow out, finally successfully pulled the crossbow arrow from Yao Peiqing's head.
With the first successful arrow draw, Lu Yu quickly pulled out the second arrow, carefully wiped off the red and white objects on the arrow with the bed sheet wrapped around the body, and handed it to the little loli beside him.
"There are only 30 crossbow arrows in total, so you can't just throw them away..."
Lu Yu's actions were naturally to save crossbow arrows, but when they fell into Shao Xiuqi's eyes, they became another scene...
After re-wrapped Yao Peiqing's body, Lu Yu and Xu Xiaoxiao came downstairs, one after another.
After confirming the safety around him again, Lu Yu winked at Xu Xiaoxiao and signaled her to throw Yao Peiqing's body outside the wall.
After that, the two of them used the same method to clean up the corpse of the headless phase zombie pushed downstairs.
Although the woman who was killed by Su Daqiang and the zombie corpse of the big-backed head tempted by Lu Yu had not been long, the corpses still emitted a rotten smell under the influence of temperature. Fortunately, the two were protected by masks, so they barely threw the two corpses outside the community wall.
"There is also the corpse of the orange cat and some of the corpse residues, so it is best to clean it up. After all, I have to stay in this building for a while..."
Lu Yu recalled again the three messages he left to himself when he first met the mysterious time traveler Zhang Heng.
The first is to prepare a lot of food and water to deal with the subsequent catastrophic environment.
The third point is to ask him not to travel far before December 21, 2022.
“Let’s go on a long journey…”
Lu Yu repeatedly muttered these three words in his mind. Since Zhang Heng did not explain why he was asked to do this at that time, Lu Yu was confused about the last message and did not know the meaning of it.
"What exactly is the long journey..."
Lu Yu's mind became entangled again. It was because he didn't understand the last message that he was so worried.
If Zhang Heng had made some clarity at that time, such as not being able to leave the community before December 21, or not being able to leave a certain block, or even leaving City N, then he would not have to worry about it.
But the message left by Zhang Heng was a vague sentence, "You can't go far."
"Can I really want to stay at home?"
Lu Yu's face wrinkled into a bitter gourd, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, as if he had caught some key clue.
When Zhang Heng was explaining the first message, he seemed to say, "It's better to last until the end of this year."
"That Zhang Heng asked me to stockpile a lot of food with a long shelf life and clean water, and it would be best to last until the end of this year."
