Beidi County, Yangling Mansion, on the bank of the river.
"Hurry up, hurry up...there's a big ship ahead!"
About a dozen people were rushing forward as if they were desperate. Three hundred meters ahead was the big river.
Behind these people, a large number of zombies are chasing after them, which is overwhelming and terrifying.
There is only one way to escape, and that is to enter the river, otherwise you will definitely die if you are surrounded by corpses.
At this time, people's potential is stimulated, and everyone is running forward like flying.
"Sir... we finally got here, are we going to die here today?"
"In the more than a month since we started from Bei'an, more than 20 brothers have died along the way. I'm afraid we will have to answer here today!"
"Mom...little sister, I miss you..."
Hearing the cries of his subordinates around him, Zhang Guangshi was extremely upset, but he had to remain calm.
"Shut up, everyone. If you really don't want to die... just run faster!"
Zhang Guangshi's scolding made these people immediately shut up and rush forward.
Ouch...
At this moment, a burst of screams came, and it was obvious that someone had been murdered.
No one looked back. At this time, they could only keep running forward to avoid suffering.
Looking at the vast and boundless river in front of him, Zhang Guangshi's voice suddenly rose: "We're almost there... hurry up!"
At this time, as a commander, you must inspire people.
Everyone's pace quickened a bit more. They were very tired at this moment, and their cardiopulmonary function was working to the extreme.
As everyone got closer, Zhang Guangshi then reminded: "Don't run into the reed swamp, go directly through the open space..."
There were probably zombies hiding in the reeds, so he had to warn them.
Everyone had some experience. After listening to Zhang Guangshi's reminder, they immediately adjusted their direction.
Nearing the river, the snow became deeper and deeper.
From the first ten centimeters, to twenty centimeters... when we approached a hundred meters from the river, the depth of the snow had reached fifty centimeters.
It's very difficult for people to walk on it, especially for the mindless zombies.
Moreover, because they were stuck deep in the snow, the zombies' movement was slowed down, which created greater opportunities for Zhang Guangshi and his party.
The distance grew wider and wider, and when they came to the river, the zombies were already fifty or sixty meters behind them.
Now they can only say that they are safe for the time being, zombies will always crawl over, and they still have to find a hiding place.
Unfortunately, there was no place to hide, and it was not realistic to swim across the shore at this moment, which made Zhang Guangshi and his party extremely anxious.
Fortunately, at this time, I heard someone shouting next to me: "Sir... that is a big ship!"
Looking in the direction the man was pointing, I saw a stranded fishing boat a hundred meters away.
"Let's go... hurry up!"
Everyone did not dare to hesitate at all and rushed forward, but the speed was really slow.
They had no choice but to take a break just now and the energy they were holding had dissipated. It was really unrealistic to run quickly now.
But soon, a dozen of them arrived at the fishing boat.
"Hurry up, turn the boat over and push him into the river!" Zhang Guangshi directed the crowd.
More than a dozen young men worked together and easily turned the fishing boat over, and then pushed it into the river with all their strength.
Next, everyone immediately got on the fishing boat.
It was at this moment that they were truly safe and could relax for a while.
Everyone was crowded together, lying slumped against the edge of the boat, breathing heavily, and their chests and abdomen were heaving.
Some people couldn't help but rejoiced: "But...it scared me to death!"
"I...I'm still alive!"
Everyone was happy after the disaster, but Zhang Guangshi remained silent, squatting on the bow of the boat and looking at the situation on the east bank of the river.
This time, he was ordered to go to Longyou to investigate the situation. From Bei'an Prefecture to the bank of the river, it was only a distance of three hundred miles, and they walked for almost two months.
Along the way, many people died, and now they finally saw hope of success.
At this time, Zhang Guangshi reminded: "Have a rest quickly and then row!"
After the boat was quiet for a few seconds, someone asked: "Sir... can we return to Bei'an alive?"
This is not easy to answer.
Before returning to Bei'an, they had to find out the situation in Longyou, and there were countless difficulties and obstacles involved.
"Everyone, at least we are still alive now. As long as we are alive, there is hope!"
After just saying this, Zhang Guangshi turned around and continued to observe the situation on the other side.
When they reached the other side, they had to find a suitable place to dock, so they had to observe the terrain in advance.
At this moment, I heard an exclamation: "He was bitten..."
After hearing this, everyone was startled, and they all moved away from the bitten person, and started fucking the guy instinctively.
At this time, even if they still felt tired, they did not dare to rest anymore.
Zhang Guangshi also turned around, his face looking ugly at this moment.
"You were bitten, why didn't you retaliate?"
"Do you know that you will kill everyone if you do this?"
Listening to Zhang Guangshi's questioning, the bitten man was speechless and couldn't help crying for a moment.
"Sir...I want to live!"
Looking at his miserable appearance, although the others were on guard with knives, their eyes were filled with pity, a bit like the sadness of a rabbit dying of a fox.
After a while of silence, Zhang Guangshi said in a deep voice: "For the safety of everyone, commit suicide!"
After experiencing the apocalypse for more than a year, the people of Beidi County have a rough idea of the situation of zombies and know that they can mutate at any time after being bitten.
So now the bitten person is a threat to everyone on the ship.
Zhang Guangshi's words reminded everyone on the ship that the pity in their eyes gradually disappeared and was replaced by determination.
"Brothers, my family lives in... Lijia Hutong, Bei'an Prefecture. There is a well outside my door. If you can go back, take care of my family for me!"
This is explaining the funeral arrangements. Although these people in front of me may not necessarily help, it is a comfort to me to say it.
When everyone was silent, Zhang Guangshi said: "If I can go back, I will visit your house!"
The man who was bitten endured the pain and smiled. He was very grateful for Zhang Guangshi's response. It was not important to him whether it was true or false. All he wanted was peace of mind.
I saw him taking off all the useful things on his body, including water bottles and dry food, as well as his saber and shoes, all of which could be left for the living or used by others.
After doing this, the man tremblingly walked to the bow of the ship under the gaze of everyone.
He turned around, smiled at his companions, and then jumped into the river.
The current was so fast that the man disappeared without a trace without even a splash.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Guangshi felt even more uncomfortable.
There were about thirty people when we left, but now there are only eleven people left, and they all experienced death along the way.
Logically speaking, he should have been numb to death long ago, but at this moment Zhang Guangshi still felt uncomfortable.
It is indeed numbing to see a person being bitten to death and cut into pieces, but seeing a person who has only been bitten by a zombie, he can only choose to die... This feeling of powerlessness is what really makes Zhang Guangshi uncomfortable.
Facing the formidable enemy of zombies, the three major forces in Beidi County were plotting against each other and never thought of cooperating to fight against each other. This made Zhang Guangshi even more sad.
