Chapter 22: A starving ghost to survive?
"Oh, by the way, you guys came here before. Were there no zombies on Wutong Avenue?"
Since he decided to stay for the time being, Wei Xuan no longer held on, found a place in the corner and sat down, letting out a long sigh of relief.
The soreness on his body and the injuries made him feel uncomfortable all over after standing there for a while.
When the old horse saw this, he also got down.
"Oh, by the way, you are still injured. Let me bandage it for you! Xue Yan, please help me look for mineral water, gauze, tape, scissors, etc. in the supermarket!"
Seeing that Wei Xuan and Lao Ma were tired and weak, Pei Yue also reacted and quickly called Xue Yan for help.
Xue Yan is thin and frail, and looks very delicate, but she doesn't like to talk much. When she hears the greeting, she immediately goes to browse the shelves.
Gong Peisheng and Liu Haibo sat down and explained: "There are usually a lot of people coming to the supermarket and getting express delivery, how could there be no zombies! When we arrived here, there were at least dozens of zombies at the door!"
"It was also our luck. Just when we were desperate, a few survivors rushed out from the School of Engineering. They rode bicycles and accelerated past, seeming to want to escape from the school. Those on Wutong Avenue The zombies were attracted by these survivors and all ran to the school gate!"
After hearing what the two people said, Wei Xuan didn't know what to say.
Being able to survive by chance means good luck.
Dare to ride through the zombie swarm, which shows that you are not bad at courage.
If such people are more cautious and use their brains more, it shouldn't be difficult for them to live longer.
But just riding out like that, it can only be said that he didn't die fast enough.
However, Wei Xuan could also understand that many people were suddenly hit by a catastrophe, and obviously they had not yet understood, or did not know, the scope and extent of this catastrophe.
I thought that if I escaped from the school or the city, I would have a chance to be rescued.
But how do they know that now that the whole world is the same, there is no hope and pure land.
The only hope is that you must try your best to survive!
Speaking of which, Wei Xuan and the others were lucky. When the disaster occurred, they happened to be in an astrophysics class, and Professor Hong talked about gamma rays.
Otherwise, they might think the same way now.
"Look, what is here!"
Xue Yan, who was rummaging around inside, suddenly screamed in surprise.
"what?"
Liu Haibo and Gong Peisheng rushed over with quick hands and feet.
Then the two of them exclaimed in surprise, "Haha, great, we don't have to worry about supplies anymore, there is actually a storage room here!"
There is also a secret door inside the supermarket, which is not only a changing room for supermarket employees to change clothes, but also a storage room for the education supermarket.
Xia Tao and the others were in a panic earlier and only stared at the supplies on the shelves. Naturally, they did not notice the secret door.
But if you think about it, you can understand that supermarkets need to replenish supplies at any time, so how can they not stock them.
Liu Haibo and Gong Peisheng took out all the food and water inside, including bread, ham sausages, biscuits, chocolate, mineral water, as well as various snacks and drinks.
Although the total amount of supplies is not large, the variety is quite complete.
"There are only six of us in total. These supplies are a little more economical. We should be able to hold on for a week or two without any problem."
Gong Peisheng said extremely excitedly.
However, they were soon dumbfounded~~
For a week or two?
Something that doesn't exist at all!
Wei Xuan and Ma Shitu were like starving ghosts.
Whenever he saw something to eat, he would stuff it into his mouth no matter what it was, and once he started eating, he would never stop.
Seeing that the pile of supplies was decreasing little by little, the two of them still had no intention of stopping.
"Why are you so hungry?"
Gong Peisheng was stunned and couldn't believe what he saw.
"Why don't you two take a break first?"
Pei Yue was also frightened. How could anyone eat so much? No matter how hungry he was, his stomach couldn't hold it.
If you continue to eat it, your stomach will burst!
"Hiccup~ It's okay, don't worry, just take two more bites and you'll be fine!"
Lao Ma stuffed another piece of ham into his mouth. After drinking a bottle of Sprite, his eating speed slowed down.
When the two of them were finally full, the remaining supplies were barely enough for everyone to last for a day.
Of course, the premise is that Wei Xuan and Lao Ma stop eating and drinking.
In fact, the two of them really didn't eat or drink anymore. After eating and drinking, the two of them felt very sleepy and fell into a drowsiness not long after.
When the two woke up again, it was already the next morning.
Moreover, the two of them did not wake up naturally, but were woken up by Pei Yue and the others.
"Zombies, there are zombies!"
As soon as the two opened their eyes, they saw Gong Peisheng's frightened face, and he deliberately suppressed his voice to remind them.
For some unknown reason, there were zombies wandering back to Wutong Avenue from other places.
Less than thirty meters away from the right front of the Education Supermarket, it was spinning in circles as if it had been hit by a ghost.
There are not many zombies, three in total.
But for the small team in front of them, all three zombies are deadly.
Among everyone at the moment, only Wei Xuan and Lao Ma had weapons in their hands. The others were all bare-handed, making it even more difficult to deal with zombies.
"The supermarket only has rolling shutter doors, which are completely defenseless. We must find a way to trap them, otherwise the zombies may accumulate more and more, and even if they rush in on their own, we will be in trouble!"
Wei Xuan took one look, retracted his head, and then said to everyone.
"But, aren't three zombies a bit too much?"
Yesterday, he was eager to hunt zombies. Now that there were zombies in front of him, Liu Haibo couldn't help but feel a little scared.
“We can take advantage of the environment in the supermarket!”
Pei Yue glanced inside the supermarket and quickly explained: "Wei Xuan said before that zombies have low IQs and their fatal weaknesses are the head and heart. If we climb up the shelves and lure zombies in, can we use you Stabbed him to death with the scissors in his hand?"
"no problem!"
"can!"
Lao Ma and Wei Xuan nodded at the same time, both thinking this strategy was feasible.
The shelves are as tall as a person, so zombies can't reach them.
But the gardening scissors in Wei Xuan and Lao Ma's hands have a blade and handle that are more than seventy centimeters long. They can easily hit the zombie's head from top to bottom.
"Okay, in that case, let's climb on the shelves first, and then lure the zombies over!"
Pei Yue nodded immediately and directed everyone to climb onto the shelves against the wall.
The middle shelf is not secure to prevent zombies from pushing onto the shelf and falling from it.
In just two days, Pei Yue has indeed grown a lot.
thump~
Lao Ma was lying on the shelf near the door, considered to be on the front line.
Seeing that everyone was ready, he slammed the handle of the scissors on the shelf.
The zombies' hearing was sensitive, and the crisp sound immediately attracted the zombies' attention. The three zombies immediately turned their heads and rushed towards the supermarket.
