Chapter 183 I don't want to die

The inner city gate slowly opened, and Liu Shan and his party appeared outside the city gate.

In the eyes of the soldiers who had not yet participated in the battle, Liu Shan and his party were different from before they entered, mainly because their momentum was much more aggressive.

At this time, Yang Qing came forward, patted Liu Shan on the shoulder and said, "Well done!"

Relatively speaking, Liu Shan and his team killed very quickly, so Yang Qing stepped forward to praise them. This was his affirmation.

A smile appeared in front of Liu Shan and he said slowly: "Thank you!"

Then he led his men and walked to the side, so that they could not block the way of the next group of people.

After leaving Yongning Gate, Liu Shan and his party breathed a sigh of relief. Only at this moment did they feel alive.

"Brother Liu, we actually killed two monsters with our own hands. We are really awesome!"

In the past, a monster that I thought was invincible and was full of fear could be killed in front of me, which is incredible to me.

In addition to their combat prowess being tested, their willpower has also been tempered, and it can be said that they have transformed from the inside out.

But as a small flag officer, Liu Shan was very sober at the moment.

"We will have to train more rigorously in the future. Today, we failed to do a lot of things well in cooperating with the attack!"

After hearing Liu Shan's words, everyone nodded. No one dared not pay attention to such a life-related matter.

"But today, rest when you need to. We'll talk about everything tomorrow!" Liu Shan said with a smile.

This sentence relieved the heavy mood of the soldiers a lot. They had indeed not been home for many days.

"Brother Liu, why don't we go to your house to drink tea first? It's already agreed!"

Liu Shan patted his sleeves and said, "We can agree to just drink tea and not eat. The little food I have is not enough for you!"

These days, no one has a surplus of food.

So the soldiers put their arms around each other and walked towards Liu Shan's house.

Seeing Li Erxia lagging behind, looking like he was holding back something to say, Liu Shan slowed down.

"What's wrong? The brothers are all happy, but you are the one with a sad face!"

Li Erxia rubbed his hands and said, "Brother Liu, I want to ask you for a favor!"

"If you fart, let it go!"

"I heard that if you move corpses at night, you can get ten pounds of food. I would like to ask you to sign up for me!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Shan was stunned and stared at Li Erxia.

"Are you kidding me?"

To move corpses, you have to move at least forty or fifty in one night. This is not an easy job.

"Brother Liu, I'm not joking. I have a mother, brothers and nephews at home who need to eat!"

Now that the bamboo cutting has ended, the food supply has suddenly decreased, and he can only maintain the most basic survival, but Li Erxia wants to give his family a better life.

After sighing, Liu Shan replied: "Okay, I'll go ask it for you!"

"It's best to go tonight!" Li Erxia said immediately.

"knew!"

…………

As night falls, the Changding Gate of the West City is opened, and the lights inside and outside the city wall are brightly lit.

This is where the guards slaughtered zombies, so there are a lot of corpses here.

After killing them all during the day, all the corpses were temporarily placed inside the city because there were still zombies outside the city wall.

When night falls, the suspension bridge in the East City will be folded up. After there are no living zombies outside the city wall, people will move the corpses out of the city.

There are more than sixty people doing this work tonight, and Li Erxia is among them.

The palace guards, as the most elite force, will naturally receive better treatment. They will definitely not move corpses for ten pounds of food.

The people who came to do this errand were all soldiers from the Military and Horse Division, and they were basically people from poor families.

On the city wall, after repeatedly confirming that there were no zombies outside, the inner and outer city gates were opened at the same time.

Just listen to the shouts from hundreds of households on the city wall: "Start working now, finish it early and go back early. Don't let me see anyone idle, otherwise I will drive them out directly!"

The soldiers immediately got busy. They all covered their mouths and noses with cloths to make them feel better.

The corpse on the ground was so disgusting that even though Li Erxia felt scared, he still had the courage to step forward and directly lift a headless corpse onto his shoulders.

Even through the "mask", Li Erxia still felt the smell was unpleasant, so he could only breathe as little as possible.

The distance from the inner city gate to the corpse burial place outside the city wall is a full five to six hundred meters, so this job is really difficult to do.

It takes at least five minutes to go back and forth, which is pretty fast.

Li Erxia rushed to the end of the field, threw the body directly to the ground, turned around and returned to continue carrying it.

After two or three trips, he was exhausted and out of breath, but Li Erxia still endured the fatigue and continued to work.

Inside the urn city, in order to take care of the soldiers who were carrying the corpses, cold water had been placed on the table so that any thirsty soldiers could come and drink water.

After moving seven times in a row and feeling exhausted, Li Erxia went to drink water with empty hands. He got a rest throughout the country.

No one can get ten kilograms of food for carrying corpses, but there are extra rewards for the top three, so Li Erxia is not willing to rest longer.

Keren's physical strength has its limits. When he reached the twenty-fifth corpse at the fastest speed, his hands and feet were already weak.

Throwing the corpse on the ground randomly, the soldier on the side said: "Brother, you are so powerful, give it a rest!"

After bending her waist and taking a few deep breaths, Li Erxia straightened up and said, "I can't rest... I'm still waiting for dinner at home!"

But just as he was about to turn around, something tripped his feet, and he fell directly to the ground.

"ah……"

Seeing him exclaiming, the soldier next to him immediately stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong? Are you okay?"

Li Erxia slowly propped up his body, and then he saw that there was a big hole in his glove, with blood oozing out of it.

Enduring the severe pain, under the moonlight and lights, Li Erxia saw the wound on his hand clearly. Of course, the soldier next to him also saw it.

"I...it's okay, it's okay!"

The tone of his words was obviously wrong. The soldier next to him glanced at the place where Li Erxia fell. There was a corpse with sharp claws, and there seemed to be blood on the tips of the claws.

"Are you hurt?"

"I didn't!" Li Erxia denied out of breath. At this moment, he looked panicked.

"Stretch out your hand and take off the glove!"

Li Erxia knew that she couldn't hide it, so she knelt on the ground and said quickly: "I will give you my share of food, but please don't tell anyone!"

Speaking out would mean death, but Li Erxia didn't want to die. He hadn't even taken a wife yet.

But the soldier next to him knew very well how terrifying it was for an infected person to hide in the army, so he shouted towards the city wall: "Sir, he is injured, scratched by the monster's claws!"

A head popped up from the city wall, scolding and asking: "What's the matter?"

"He was scratched by a monster!"

Upon hearing this, the soldiers guarding the city wall immediately returned and reported to the hundreds of households on duty.

"I...I'm fine, I'm fine!" Li Erxia's tone was urgent.

Having a premonition of what was going to happen next, Li Erxia didn't want to die like that, so he simply turned around and ran away.
