Things turned out just as Tang Zheng had guessed. The heavy rain blocked the zombies' perception, causing them to lose all channels for obtaining information from the outside world and become motionless.
Even if Tang Zheng walked three meters away from them, they remained indifferent.
But within three meters, zombies seem to have feelings.
After detecting the movement range of the zombies, the next step is to avoid them and then hurry on.
This kind of heavy rain usually doesn't last long. If you want to go on your way, you have to hurry up. A few people quickened their pace. Even if the zombies occasionally sensed them, they would be quickly left behind.
Under the heavy white rain, everyone almost jogged along Xinglin Road.
This five-kilometer-long road of death was passed just like that.
By the time we walked out of Xinglin Road, it was already afternoon.
After turning another corner, Yida City was already in sight in the distance.
"General, the rain seems to have subsided a little."
Tang Zheng looked up at the sky. Sure enough, the rain had become lighter, and it was now a moderate rain.
The zombies on the street seem to be showing signs of coming back to life.
Sure enough, the decision to leave immediately was the right one, otherwise they would not know how many days they would be trapped on the roof of that building.
"Let's go into Yida City. The terrain there is wide. Even if there are zombies, there is no danger of being surrounded. As long as we leave Yida City and cross an intersection, we can get on the viaduct. There are no street pavements on the viaduct, so there is no danger of being surrounded by zombies.
There won’t be many of them. Once we get off the elevated highway, we’ll reach Binjiang Road, which is not far from Binjiang Park.”
Tang Zheng had already planned the route forward. Xinglin Road was the most difficult step. Another difficulty was the section from Binjiang Road to Binjiang Park.
As for Yida City, it cannot be said that it is not dangerous, but it is less difficult than the other two places.
Yida City is a large-scale comprehensive supermarket that integrates shopping, leisure, and amusement parks. There are four in Sanjiang City.
Tang Zheng didn't go indoors, he just wanted to pass through the wide area of Yida Plaza, so there shouldn't be much danger.
While it was still raining and the zombies were slow to move, Tang Zheng and his group quickly passed through intersections and streets and arrived at the gate of Yida Amusement Park.
The gate of the amusement park is tall and there are many classic animated characters from home and abroad on the gate.
There are some flower baskets in front of the door. They are withered branches and leaves, and they are leaning here and there.
Some red silk was hung on the door, hanging down wetly.
Tang Zheng wiped the rain off his face. The wet clothes on his body were very uncomfortable.
"Let's go in first."
Everyone followed Tang Zheng's footsteps and walked into the amusement park.
There are many buildings here, tall Ferris wheels, crazy roller coasters, and floating pirate ships.
Bungee jumping, merry-go-round...you name it.
Of course, there are also some zombies wandering around in the rain at an extremely slow speed.
This is a very safer time.
Tang Zheng looked up at the sky. The clouds still hadn't dispersed. Although it looked like there wouldn't be heavy rain, the light to moderate rain was probably going to take some time.
"It's now past two o'clock in the afternoon. We walked out of Yida City today and couldn't walk out of the viaduct. It seems that we have to rest here tonight and wait until tomorrow to set off again."
Tang Zheng wanted to take a rest and at least find a place to warm up by the fire.
He had radar and could avoid risks at a relatively short distance, so he took everyone by the houses and buildings to see which building had fewer zombies.
After walking for a while, when he came to an indoor bumper car experience center, Tang Zheng suddenly stopped.
There is something wrong with the surrounding environment.
Around the experience center, a lot of debris has accumulated, forming an isolation zone.
You must know that when zombies are wandering, they will not take the initiative to climb over those difficult obstacles, so those who can do this must be humans.
Debris was almost piled up in a circle around the experience hall, so the survivors must be in the experience hall.
Tang Zheng was a little hesitant. He didn't really want to stay with the other survivors at the moment. After all, this military uniform could easily cause the survivors to misunderstand and beg them to be taken away.
But now there is no suitable place to stay in the entire playground. After all, it is still raining, so he can't sleep outside.
Before he could make a decision, the door to the experience center opened unexpectedly.
The soldiers were immediately alert, but Tang Zheng didn't pay too much attention. If the other party took the initiative to open the door, there must be no malice.
Sure enough, a young man waved to Tang Zheng and the others inside the door.
"These soldiers, please come here to take shelter from the rain."
Tang Zheng did not hesitate anymore and walked towards the experience center.
Entering the room, the young man was very enthusiastic: "Hello, are you here for rescue?"
Tang Zheng shook his head: "No, we are not here to rescue, we are just passing by."
The young man's face was slightly disappointed, but he didn't say much. He still greeted warmly: "See you're all wet. Come in quickly. You can still light a fire here."
Follow the young man through a foyer, which is a huge space.
The venue of the bumper car experience hall is naturally not too small, approximately 2,000 square meters.
But at this moment, the surrounding ground was covered with carpets, and many people were lying or sitting in the corners. When they saw Tang Zheng and others coming in, their eyes burst out with strange looks, and many people stood up.
There were probably more than fifty people, both men and women, and there were more than a dozen children among them.
But no one said much, and it seemed more orderly.
The young man brought Tang Zheng to a tall man.
"This squad leader, this is Brother Meng, Meng Zhiliang, the person who led us to survive. If you have a rescue plan or find an organization, you must remember to give credit to our Brother Meng. If it weren't for him, more than fifty people here would
There may not even be ten people left."
Tang Zheng looked at Brother Meng in surprise.
This man is about thirty years old, has a strong build, and is slightly taller than himself, about 1.85 meters.
He was carrying a fire ax behind his back and a police Type 64 pistol at his waist.
Tang Zheng knew this kind of gun. It was a gun issued by the security officers of the Public Security Department, and its power was moderate.
The gun had a bright appearance, but Tang Zheng, who was careful, quickly discovered something was wrong.
The traces of wiping are too obvious, and rust can be seen in some gaps. The inside of this gun is probably rusted. It is mostly for show when it is pinned to the waist like this.
This thing has no effect on zombies, but for people, guns are always the most deterrent thing.
This is not for killing zombies, it is for scaring people.
Staying here like this is probably for people like me, to prove that they are not powerless to fight back.
Of course, he may also be testing his attitude to show that he has nothing to hide.
Tang Zheng felt a little funny in his heart, but he also knew that this was the normal mentality of survivors.
Tang Zheng also knew that if he proposed to confiscate the gun at this moment, this person would obediently hand it over, but of course Tang Zheng would not do that.
They stretched out their hands to Meng Zhiliang: "My name is Tang Zheng."
Meng Zhiliang seemed calm, but actually he was a little nervous inside.
After all, the group of people in front of them are soldiers and have enough strength to crush everyone here.
But out of trust in the soldiers, he still asked the young man to bring the group in.
Taking the initiative to put the gun on his waist is also a frank attitude. After all, the gun is not his. He found it from the Public Security Bureau box in Yida City. If the young officer asks him to hand it in, he will hand it in.
.
At this moment, when he saw Tang Zheng reaching out to shake hands with him, he was a little flattered and immediately stretched out his hands to shake hands with Tang Zheng.
"Hello, monitor, I am Meng Zhiliang, a gym coach."
Tang Zheng nodded and glanced at the ax behind him: "Your ax has dark brown marks on it. You must have chopped down a lot of zombies."
"Yes, yes, after years of fitness, I still have some strength. This kind of ax is heavy and not easily damaged, so it is perfect for killing zombies."
"Did you save all these people?"
"Yes, on the day the apocalypse broke out, I took my children to the amusement park to play..."
Having said this, an aunt in her fifties from behind spoke.
"Xiao Meng, let these soldiers come and sit down quickly. They are all soaked. Let's talk while warming ourselves by the fire."
Tang Zheng looked back and saw that the survivors were already busy lighting a fire.
On top of the fire is a large iron pot with boiling water in it.
"Oh, look at me, I'm so ignorant, Squad Leader Tang, come on, come on, come and sit down."
Someone brought stools and gathered around the fire. Tang Zheng led the soldiers over and sat around the fire.
Da Congming and Xiao Mei lay obediently at Tang Zheng's feet, feeling comfortable under the firelight with their eyes closed, as if they were asleep.
But if someone goes against Tang Zheng, they will definitely attack and hurt him immediately.
Meng Zhiliang sat with Tang Zheng, and the other survivors gathered in the outer circle, their eyes revealing their trust in Tang Zheng and the others.
The young man even poured a cup of hot water for Tang Zheng and the others.
After taking a sip of water, my stomach felt warm.
Being enveloped by the warm firelight, the coldness on his body gradually disappeared, and Tang Zheng felt comfortable for a while.
In the apocalypse, there are evil people like the chef at Chunxi Hotel, but most of them are kind-hearted ordinary people.
This group of survivors hugging each other for warmth is a relatively normal state.
Tang Zheng has already observed it since he came in.
There were combatants in this group, such as Meng Zhiliang, young men, and several other men, also holding some crude weapons.
There are also living staff, and there are many traces of labor in the room. There are all kinds of cooking supplies, some supplies and food are piled in the corner, and there are also man-made bows and arrows, although they are very crude.
What's more, there are children here.
If you have children, you have a future and hope.
If such a group can receive strong armed support, the future will be very promising.
Yida City has a large area and there are not too many zombies. Once it is done, this will be the prototype of a survival base.
