"Hey, Acheng, why are you hiding in the corner alone? Why don't you go over there and play cards with the big guys?"

Raising his eyebrows and looking at Tang Xiaoquan who was walking towards him, Acheng shook his head feebly, then lowered his head and excused himself: "I, I'm not very interested in playing cards."

"Oh, that's it~" He seemed to respond quite casually, and Tang Xiaoquan sat down next to the former without leaving any trace, then raised his finger and pointed to the sky in the distance, saying:

"I remember when I was very young, my grandma once told me that after death, people will turn into stars in the sky. When you look at the stars at night, the brightest star is the person you care about."

"Later, my grandma passed away due to illness, so I would stand in the courtyard of my hometown at night, looking up at the stars, looking for the brightest star I could see."

"And every time I find that star, my heart will feel warm unconsciously, as if grandma is watching me from the horizon."

"Then as I grew older and improved my knowledge, I gradually understood that the so-called "people will turn into stars after death" were false, but it was also like this that made me realize the meaning of my grandma's words.

Another meaning."

"Another meaning?" Acheng blurted out subconsciously, with a little curiosity in his words.

"Well," Tang Xiaoquan still raised his eyes to the sky, seemingly unaware of Acheng's question. He continued, "What grandma told me is actually people's yearning for happiness.

A spiritual sustenance.”

"Aren't these things the basis of what makes us human? Just imagine, if human beings don't have dreams, then life will wither; if human beings don't have civilization, then society will collapse! In the end, we will all be reduced to the bottom of a building.

Such a beast-like walking corpse."

"So, to a certain extent, we are happy because we are still alive. Although the end of the world is coming, we must not give up our dreams. We must live strong for those we love and those who love us.

, but also for those who are also struggling to survive at the bottom and those who have unfortunately passed away."

"Ah~" At this point, Tang Xiaoquan patted Acheng's shoulder meaningfully, and then took a long breath: "Look for the brightest star. Brother Du and your father must be watching over there.

As for you, don't let them down, live strong, this is their last wish, and it is also your filial piety, you must fulfill it."

Acheng slowly turned his head thoughtfully, but when he looked to his side, the slightly thin figure had already stood up and walked away.

"Are my father and uncle watching me from the horizon?" Acheng murmured. Although he was already 18 this year, and although he knew that those were all nonsense, he still subconsciously looked into the distance for some reason, and at the same time

Secretly praying: "Dad! Uncle! Don't worry, I will live well!"

There was nothing to say all night, and in the blink of an eye it was morning again.

When the rising sun just peeked out from the horizon, the survivors were already getting up and getting ready.

There is no doubt that the survivors who have run out of ammunition and food will not be able to enjoy breakfast, so they are hungry and must complete the task of carrying food before their bodies collapse.

In addition, the dawn in summer is the time of day when the intensity of sunlight is relatively low. Choosing this scene to take action will undoubtedly minimize physical exertion.

"Okay, everyone, if anyone doesn't know much about this action plan or has any questions, please raise them now." Hu Xiaodong returned to his serious and serious state again, his plastic face solemn and tense.

"No," almost in unison, everyone gave an affirmative answer.

But it's no wonder they are so coordinated. After all, this plan is a matter of life and death, and no one dares to be careless.

"Okay, now that everyone is clear about it, I won't go into details. In short..." There was a sudden pause in his voice. Hu Xiaodong's eyes swept over everyone one by one, and then continued in an extremely solemn manner: "

In short, I hope everyone can come back alive...and successfully complete today's mission."

No one answered, everyone looked solemn. Hu Xiaodong's words, which could not be regarded as an oath, undoubtedly sounded the alarm in everyone's hearts.

"Uncle Lin, if there are two tiger girls at home, I'll ask you and Lu Rui to take care of them."

Lin Muye patted Hu Xiaodong's shoulder lightly. His wrinkled face seemed a bit older now: "Don't worry, there won't be any big problems at home, but you must pay attention to your safety. If you encounter

It's dangerous, don't force it, remember life is the first priority, if the food is gone, we can find a way to get it, but if the life is gone..."

Lin Muye did not continue, because he felt that it was obviously unlucky to say anything about death or not at this juncture, so he quickly changed the subject and affirmed: "I, old man, are waiting for your triumphant return!"

After the greetings were completed, Wu and Wang Qiang worked together to resist the 7-meter-high wooden ladder.

Tang Xiaoquan also took advantage of the situation and took a look at the bottom of the building, but saw that there was nothing underneath, and no zombies were found.

Such a situation was undoubtedly great good news for the survivors. At that moment, everyone did not dare to delay, so they hurriedly climbed down the wooden ladder one after another and started to queue up as soon as possible.

As usual, Hu Xiaodong held a compound bow in front of his head to clear the way. He walked in twos and twos to the entrance of the alley, then quietly followed the cover of the wall, looked sideways to explore the situation outside the entrance of the alley, and then stretched out two fingers.

"Two zombies!" Wang Qiang muttered to himself. Due to his experience last time, he didn't need Wu's explanation this time.

As usual, he nocked the arrow, raised the bow, and loosened the string. Hu Xiaodong's archery skills were still so superb. With two dull sounds of falling to the ground, everyone knew that the target was solved.

"Let's go!" With an unusually crisp wave of his hand, Hu Xiaodong rushed out with a ghostly waist. The next second, he rushed to a van on the street and squatted down. He waited until his teammates behind him followed suit before he started.

Move your feet and walk to the next shelter.

As Tang Xiaoquan had expected in advance, Hu Xiaodong had a good understanding of the layout of the entire street. He could almost always find a suitable shelter in the right place, and even if he encountered some blind zombies blocking the way, he would

Can kill it with bow and arrow in the first time.

Therefore, under the leadership of Hu Xiaodong, who was almost a fool, the group of survivors finally arrived at the target location without any danger.

Six people lined up behind two abandoned cars. Hu Xiaodong gently poked half of his head out. The four big characters "Xianghe Noodle House" 50 meters directly in front of him were clearly visible.
