#305 - Chapter 305: A Little Test
Inside the carriage.
Liu Wenhao and Li Cai finished their conversation.
Everyone leaned against the vehicle, either dozing off or looking at the scenery outside the window to pass the time.
The journey was still long, and they couldn't chat all the way to their destination; people needed to rest.
Team Leader Liu also needed to devote some attention to maintaining the safety of the convoy.
Li Cai, on the other hand, leaned against the back seat, staring at the trees and buildings outside the car as they receded, her mind filled with thoughts.
In a few more hours, around evening, she would be able to see Brother Li and A Zhen, whom she hadn't seen for months.
She remembered when they had just left their residence in Shenzhen last year, and how they, as a group, had struggled to survive in this apocalyptic world.
The car broke down and they were surrounded by zombies.
They shared food they found when they were hungry.
They changed cars after the acid rain damaged them.
At night, when zombies harassed them, they encouraged each other and huddled together to sleep.
She remembered how they overcame their fear of zombies and grew stronger while searching for supplies.
And then, on the last day when they left the main group, facing the pleas of their companions, she dared not look in the rearview mirror, afraid that tears would uncontrollably flow out and be discovered by everyone.
Thinking of this.
The corners of Li Cai's mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, outlining a smile as bright and warm as spring flowers blooming.
This smile was like a ray of sunlight piercing through the haze in winter, unreservedly displayed on her beautiful and moving face, making people unable to help but be captivated.
Time really flies.
In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed.
Fortunately, everyone was still alive.
She heard that Brother Li and Xiao Cong were now building branch bases for Green Source, living in designated areas every day, with special vehicles for transportation, and the work locations were very safe with various defensive personnel guarding them.
It sounded so full of longing.
A land of hope.
It was much better than their small coal mine shelter in Shanshi.
But she wasn't jealous because her parents were there.
Her parents were there.
That was home.
This time, she only came out to see Brother Li and the others, to confirm that both sides were doing well in the apocalypse, and that was very satisfying.
She would go back to Shanshi again.
She would accompany her parents to build a good coal mining area and strive to support more people.
To bring hope to more survivors.
******
Time came to two o'clock in the afternoon.
Team Leader Liu and his transport convoy estimated that they would be able to enter the territory of Guangyuan City in about half an hour.
This still belonged to the territory of Yongning City, a city bordering Guangyuan City.
"Everyone perk up! We expect to be back at the base in about an hour!"
Liu Wenhao shouted into the team channel with a walkie-talkie.
Although the geomagnetic field affected the signal, the walkie-talkie could still work at short distances.
The team members responded one after another.
Li Cai in the back seat also sat up from her half-asleep state.
They were almost at Green Source?
So, she was about to see A Zhen and the others?
Her mood fluctuated slightly, becoming more and more restless.
Staring at the scenery outside the window, they had unknowingly arrived on a road in a small town.
Outside were some low-rise houses on both sides, and after the passage of time, the original noisy atmosphere could no longer be felt.
Everywhere was dilapidated, and the doors of many shops along the road were wide open, whether they had been visited by other survivors or the owners had left in a hurry and couldn't bother to close them.
Was there still a chance to go back to their former lives?
No one could give her an answer.
Suddenly.
Li Cai's beautiful eyebrows furrowed, and she stared at an alley outside the car with a somewhat solemn expression, then quickly said:
"Brother Liu! Can you stop the car!?"
Although her words were a request, they were filled with determination.
In fact, Liu Wenhao also saw what happened outside.
It seemed that a survivor was being chased by zombies over there!
This kind of thing was very common in the apocalypse, and it was happening everywhere on the earth every day.
According to Liu Wenhao's usual habits, he would not stop to meddle in other people's affairs.
He first glanced at Li Cai, and then advised:
"Miss Li, do you want to save the people outside? Those people may not be good people, there are many people fishing now, and there may be a risk of being injured by zombies if you go over."
His words were quite clear, and Li Cai understood the meaning immediately.
In the apocalypse, there were too many people who repaid kindness with enmity after being saved, or deliberately set traps to plot against other survivors.
"Brother Liu, please stop the car, I know what I'm doing."
Seeing her persistence, Liu Wenhao thought for two seconds, then picked up the walkie-talkie and ordered in the team channel:
"Everyone stop the car!"
The convoy stopped quickly, and Li Cai opened the car door and ran towards the scene she had just seen!
Liu Wenhao was helpless, thinking that he had promised the other party's parents to take care of their daughter, so he followed with a weapon in hand.
The other team members naturally stopped the car to carry out guard defense.
To Liu's surprise, he couldn't keep up with this brave girl!
Even if he was affected by some weapons and equipment hanging on his body, it shouldn't be!
He was trained!
Just as he tried his best to catch up, Li Cai in front had already arrived at the place she had just passed by, and saw a female survivor being chased by three zombies!
Team Leader Liu's face suddenly changed!
Even if he faced these three zombies head-on, he would have to be careful, let alone Li Cai, who seemed to have no firearms!
She just ran straight towards it like that!
It was different from his imagined long-range killing of zombies with the help of terrain!
"Get out of the way!!"
He shouted at the top of his voice.
Just.
The girl in front of him seemed not to hear, and stopped!
The female survivor who was being chased by the zombie also glanced at Li Cai in panic and doubt, left a sentence "Run" and continued to run back without looking back.
She bypassed the survivor.
Facing the three zombies directly, there was no fear on Li Cai's face.
On the contrary, there was only a piece of calm.
There seemed to be a little eagerness to try!?
An unexpected scene appeared!
She saw her take out two small daggers from her two calves as if by magic!
The whole person instantly lowered her body and turned into a blurry shadow, attacking forward!
The zombies who had already pounced in front of her and stretched out their claws would naturally not refuse the fragrant meat delivered to their door.
They roared, and their three rotten mouths had been opened to the limit, ready to enjoy this delicious meal.
Just as Team Leader Liu's eyes were about to split.
Seeing that this girl was about to die.
Li Cai, who was moving, turned around and moved, her speed was amazing, and a pair of slender arms turned into invisible black shadows, flashing continuously on the three zombies who pounced over!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh——
"Woo ka..."
Thump! x3
The momentum of the three zombies' advance was not exhausted, and they continued to pounce forward for a few meters, and rolled a few times on the ground before lying motionless on the ground!
What happened?
Seem?
Solved!?
Liu Wenhao ran over panting, looking at the scene in front of him with a face full of astonishment:
On the ground were three hideous, stinky zombies!
And not far away, a girl in sportswear was standing there quietly, holding two sharp daggers in her hand, carefully wiping the blood stains on them.
Her movements were elegant and skilled, as if she was already accustomed to this bloody scene.
The sun shone on her, outlining her slender but tough profile, revealing a different kind of temperament.
"This......"
He didn't know what to say at this time.
What the hell is going on!?
How could the delicate girl he thought was so powerful!
She wiped the two daggers clean with a paper towel before putting them back into the hidden scabbards on both sides of her calves.
If it weren't for this scene just now, others wouldn't have known that this woman was hiding such weapons.
"Brother Liu, let's continue on our way~"
Walking in front of Team Leader Liu.
Waving her hand in front of him, Li Cai said with a smile to Liu Wenhao, who was a little dazed.
