Chapter 257 Zombie Crisis
After entrusting Li Liang to Sun Jing and her brother, Zhou Yang and Shen Zechuan went straight home.
It was almost 10 o'clock by then, and Yu Jing and the others had already fallen asleep.
So neither of them disturbed anyone, and they went home and went straight to sleep.
When Yu Jing woke up the next day, she thought the two of them had returned. But when she asked, she learned that they had only come back temporarily to save someone and had to leave again after breakfast. She felt very sorry for them and fed them. She then made them pack a lot of delicious food to take with them.
Zhou Yang didn't stand on ceremony and immediately put it into his spatial storage.
The two then went to check on Li Liang, who was still unconscious, and after confirming that he was alright, they went to the military headquarters and entrusted the woman's body to the military's cremation department for separate cremation and burial.
Of course, separate cremation and burial will incur a fee.
After exchanging crystal cores, the two boarded the pea and left the base.
After another half hour of driving, the two arrived at the place where they had set off the night before.
Only when they stopped did the two realize that there were several times more zombies here than last night. It seemed that Yan Fei and his team had not completely eliminated these zombies last night.
Just as they had expected, the entire town was overrun by zombies overnight.
Without giving it much thought, the two cleared away the obstacles and went straight into the building where they would be spending the night.
However, when the two went up, they did not see Yan Fei and the others.
The inside was spotless, with only a few traces of tents that had been pitched; there was no indication that anyone had stayed overnight.
Looking at the empty house, Zhou Yang was dumbfounded: "Where are they?"
Shen Zechuan didn't respond immediately. Instead, he walked to a wall and stood there. Zhou Yang looked over and saw a line of words carved on the wall: "Returning home."
This is clearly a message that Yan Fei carved on the wall for them.
"They probably headed back last night. But since they were driving, they took a different route than us."
"Huh?" Zhou Yang was taken aback. "What happened that requires us to leave tonight?"
"It might be related to the gathering of these zombies. There are too many, and it's difficult to break through when we're surrounded." Shen Zechuan looked thoughtfully at the zombies that had gathered below because of the two of them. "Let's go too, and look for them along the way."
"Row."
After they reached an agreement, the two didn't linger and headed back on the pea.
However, this time, because I wanted to look for Yan Fei and the others along the way, I took the main road and didn't travel very fast.
The two of them traveled around like tourists, looking for people and hurrying on their way.
To be honest, apart from the zombies being a bit of an eyesore, this place, free from exhaust fumes and smog, and filled with greenery, is actually quite beautiful.
"After the apocalypse is over, I really want to go out and see the world that I never had time to see before."
"It's no big deal, I'll go with you. We can even go around the world together!"
"Let's skip the round-the-world trip; there are too many variables in the ocean. Let's just travel around Eurasia."
"Fine, fine, you're in charge!"
……
The two chatted casually for a while and soon returned to Anhui Province.
They finally found Yan Fei and his group on a national highway.
The car they were driving belonged to Zhang Tao and Li Mei.
The two were able to recognize them at a glance because the cars with their rear ends completely smashed were so conspicuous.
When Zhou Yang and his companion saw Yan Fei and his group, Yan Fei and the others naturally noticed the giant pea. After all, the earth trembled when a large mutated animal passed by.
So Yan Fei and the others pulled over to the side of the road.
Zhou Yang and the other person waited until Wandou walked to the side of the convoy before getting off.
As soon as they landed, Li Mei and the others surrounded them, asking about Li Liang and the woman's remains.
Zhou Yang answered all their questions, and Li Mei and the others were relieved, repeatedly expressing their gratitude.
"By the way, why did you all suddenly leave overnight?"
After calming Li Mei and the others down, Zhou Yang returned to Yan Fei and the others and finally asked his question.
“After you left last night, we continued to clear out the zombies, but we found that the number of zombies that surrounded us was greater than expected. If we stayed, we might be surrounded by zombies. In addition, Li Mei and the others were injured, so we discussed it and decided to retreat first and find another place.”
Yan Fei paused for a moment, then said, "But I left a message for you on the wall, you should have seen it, right?"
Zhou Yang and Shen Zechuan nodded: "We saw it, that's why we came right away."
Yan Fei nodded, then added, "Oh, right, there's something else we just learned from Li Mei and the others yesterday. When they left the capital base, a wave of zombie attacks had just ended. Most of the retreating zombies went south, which is why they attracted so many zombies along the way."
We predict this wave of zombies is likely to continue growing, causing significant damage to many bases along the way. This is another reason why we're in a hurry to leave; we need to return to our base as soon as possible to report the situation and inform other bases to prepare accordingly.
Upon hearing this, both Zhou Yang and the other person frowned.
Zhou Yang recalled this time in his previous life, and it seemed that there was indeed a wave of zombie attacks before the extreme heat.
However, at that time, because the three major bases of Shanghai, Shijiazhuang, and Hangzhou were blocking their way, and their small base was not on the main route of the zombies, it did not cause them much of an impact.
Now that the Baijishan base is close to the inland, it is a stumbling block on the zombies' path and a food supply point in their eyes. It is conceivable how great the impact it will be.
And don't think that zombie sieges only involve zombies that limp on the ground; there are all sorts of zombies, some that burrow underground, some that fly in the sky.
However, the most troublesome of these are the zombie kings who lead the battle, and they are mostly mental zombie kings who can disguise themselves and scheme.
It's just a question of what level of opponent they'll be facing this time.
"In that case, let's hurry back. The sooner we get back, the sooner we can make preparations!"
"That's what we think too. Let's go!"
Realizing the zombie crisis, Zhou Yang and the others stopped chatting, called out to Li Mei and the others, and then decisively got into the car and headed towards the base.
