Doomsday pawn

When the last zombie's head rolled to the ground, the refugees who had come from afar supported each other and stood in a pool of black blood, seemingly very tired.

"Nine and a half, not bad!"

Ding Xing, who was lying by the window watching the show, stood up and looked back at the clock on the wall. His tone seemed to be quite satisfied with the result.

In his opinion, it only took seven zombies nearly ten minutes, which was still too slow. But none of them escaped or got injured, so overall it was pretty good.

Seeing the group of people continuing to walk in this direction after a short rest, Ding Xing patted Mustache on the shoulder, and then walked straight out the door. After greeting the young man who spoke particularly unpleasantly, and getting a response

, the two of them walked downstairs along the stairwell.

Although he didn't give any reminder just now, now he plans to go downstairs to greet them in person. The performance of those people is worthy of his reputation.

at the same time…

Not far away to the south on their right, in the blind spot of the window where Mustache was, there was a small building of about the same height. In one of its rooms, a figure was smoking silently and looking at the building.

Li Wu and others got off the stairs, and until they were safely downstairs of the six-story commercial building, he put out his cigarette butts, turned around and left, continuing to move closer to the front.

Downstairs of commercial building…

After arriving at the location, Li Wu, who had not yet entered the hall, was still a little worried. His mother-in-law reminded him: "Uncle Kong, after you get up there, suppress your bad temper. Don't be impulsive."

"Stop being so pushy, come in quickly!" Old Man Kong, who had been inked several times along the way, was too lazy to wave his hand anymore. He agreed as if he had sworn a vow, but his expression still looked a little impatient.

.

"Remember Ang!"

“…”

Li Wu's endless chatter was rewarded with a look of disdain.

The conversation between the two ended quickly, with each other showing helpless expressions. For a moment, they couldn't tell who was the elder and who was the younger.

"Brother Li Wu, you are finally here!"

Just after they finished speaking and stepped into the hall, Ding Xing, holding a Guandao, also walked out from the corner. Although he had just arrived downstairs, it looked like he had been waiting for a long time.

of.

The sudden appearance of Ding Xing made Li Wu stop, but he reacted quickly, walked a few steps quickly to Ding Xing, and replied in a flattering manner: "I kept you waiting for a long time, Brother Ding. Look...

You even came down to pick us up in person."

That flattering look was like a bitch, causing Old Man Kong on the side to lower his head and pout. He just felt that he hadn't noticed before that this kid had the potential to pretend to be a grandson.

At this point in the meeting, everyone who had their own thoughts was getting along well, but then an inappropriate voice came out...

"Who do you think you are? Do you still need Brother Ding to wait for you here?"

After hearing these arrogant and harsh words, Old Man Kong immediately raised his head, a hint of anger appearing on his old face. The big stone stone clenched the shovel in his hand, ready to move.

Not only Old Man Kong, but also Ding Xing's face was a little confused at this moment. He turned back sharply and scolded with a straight face: "Tan Feng, shut up!"

Not surprisingly... the one who spoke was the young man standing behind him. He had a gun and a stick in his mouth, and looked like he wanted to be beaten.

It turns out your little boy’s name is Tan Feng.

Li Wu also drooped his face. He was just angry. You must know that Li Wu is a petty person who never waits for revenge. Now he is being humiliated by this bastard one after another. Normally, he would have been

I was furious.

But when he thought that Wei Lai was not here now, and it was not the time to fall out, he could only suppress his anger, and made an aggrieved smile without saying anything.

But in the little notebook in his mind, he wrote down this little bastard one stroke at a time.

"You step on..."

The young man named Tan Feng raised his eyebrows, as if he was a little unconvinced and wanted to talk back. But when his eyes fell on the Guandao in Ding Xing's hand, he swallowed the words that came to his lips.

After hesitating again and again, he finally pursed his lips and did not dare to say anything more. He just shook his head and moved his body, nodded with annoyance, and stood aside with a gloomy look on his face.

Ding Xing stared at Tan Feng with his sharp eyes until he shut up obediently, then Ding Xing turned around with a serious face.

In fact, he really disliked the lunatic next to him who spit out feces when he opened his mouth. Just a few years ago, people had to chop it into pieces with a knife and throw it on the street to feed him just because of his mouth.

dog.

And he really didn't know what was wrong with Brother Guan, why he had to keep this wolf bastard, and even let him take him with him no matter what. Is it because he was easier to talk to than Chen Jiang, that dead-faced man?

Ding Xing felt a headache when he thought of the guy who was still looking for supplies outside. He really didn't know why he was going out so desperately to take risks.

But fortunately, these people who came this time seemed pretty good, and their courage was pretty good. If Brother Guan agreed to let them stay this time, he would kick that little bastard Tan Feng away no matter what.

Thinking of this, the longing in Ding Xing's eyes became stronger. But he still didn't show any apology for what Tan Feng just said. He just turned around and walked towards the stairwell: "Let's go, follow me.

Get up!"

Regarding Ding Xing's attitude, Li Wu didn't say anything, but quickly followed behind with everyone.

Anyway, he was already prepared to fall out in the future, so it didn't matter whether it was Ding Xing's attitude or Tan Feng's actions. At worst, he would have to be more serious when the time comes. Let's not talk about other things for now.

With that broken mouth, anything he said would be torn to pieces.

…

As the group of people gradually went up, there were more and more obstacles blocking their progress.

Tables, chairs, cabinets, shelves and other miscellaneous items were piled up throughout the stairwell, leaving only a small path along the wall that could accommodate one person.

Tan Feng, who is mean-mouthed, can be considered a normal person when he is not talking. At this moment, he is walking at the end, putting the clutter that has been removed back to its original position, and completely clearing the only remaining path.

Blocked.

After turning a corner, that is, arriving at the second and a half floor, the clutter in front of us began to gradually decrease. By the time we reached the third floor, there was no longer any clutter in the stairwell.

At this time, Li Wu and the others also smelled the stench that hit their faces and hit their foreheads. A group of people, including Ding Xing and Tan Feng, couldn't help but raise their hands to cover their mouths and noses.

And it's just that the weather has turned cold and winter has entered. If it were a hot summer, I'm afraid no one would be willing to stay in such a place for even a short second.

"I'll go, Brother Ding...what does this smell like?" Li Wu twitched for a while, as if he was about to vomit. As he said this, he opened the side door of the stairwell to take a look.

"I advise you not to drive!"

Ding Xing stopped first, and then grabbed Li Wu's arm. In such a hurry, he even forgot to cover his mouth and nose. It wasn't until the smell invaded his nose that he quickly let go and covered his mouth, and just

In this way, he did not forget to use his other hand to grab Li Wu's wrist, as if he was afraid that he would open the wooden door.

Then he looked at Li Wu who looked puzzled and explained: "The entire third floor has been used as a latrine by those people, and now it is full of mines."

"grass…"

Li Wu, who was still curious at first, cursed secretly in his heart, and then followed Ding Xing's advice and quickly put down his arms, wanting to stay away from this disgusting place with a look of disgust on his face.

At the same time...even Old Man Kong and others behind him moved their steps in disgust, moving themselves further away from the door. As a girl, Gardenia, although she was unkempt all day long, looked like a little beggar.

, but still couldn't bear this situation, and turned around early.

Under the erosion of this stinky smell, they almost ran up the last half floor. At this point, their goal was very consistent, that is, to leave here as soon as possible.

When they arrived on the fourth floor, although the smell here was equally unpleasant, it was at least much stronger than the one on the floor below. In comparison, the sour smell on this floor was actually tolerable.

"This is where we are staying. There are nearly two hundred people now. Most of them are waiting for rescue with hope." Ding Xing, who was the first to enter the hall, raised his finger and pointed to the middle, explaining to Li Wu.

"Where are...there are so many people?"

Old Man Kong was a little surprised when he looked at the group of people scattered in the hall. Although he knew that this was another gathering place, he really didn't expect that so many people could be hidden here.

However, although he was very surprised, he still scoffed at what Ding Xing just said.

They are just waiting for rescue. Just look at these people's sallow faces, thin skin, and confused appearance. They all wish they could be hanged with a rope immediately. There is no sign of hope for the future.

He didn't know who had the final say here, let alone how that guy managed to survive with these people. But based on what he saw with his own eyes now, that guy was far worse than Wei Lai.

.

Well! Xiao Wei is better!

After praising Wei Lai mercilessly in his heart, Old Man Kong raised his hand and rubbed his old face, and asked Ding Xing over Li Wuxian in front: "Are we going to live here too?"

"Those who have the courage to go out to search for supplies have the right to live in separate rooms. But those who dare not go out and take risks can only crowd in the hall."

Ding Xing glanced at Old Man Kong who stood up with some surprise, and then at Li Wu who didn't make any move. He continued with a strange expression: "But even like this, you can get one meal a day, and at least you won't starve to death."

."

"But before that, you have to go see Brother Guan first. As long as he agrees, you can stay!"

When he said this, he no longer paid attention to the young Li Wu, but kept looking at the thoughtful old man Kong, as if he had noticed something.

"you decide!"

Old Man Kong, who pretended not to notice, nodded first, then looked at Li Wu "cryptically" and motioned for him to come forward and come up with an idea.

then…

Facing Ding Xing's somewhat meaningful look, Li Wu nodded lightly.

……………

fifth floor,

A walkie-talkie placed on the coffee table made a buzzing sound, which attracted the attention of the two men. Before they could pick up the walkie-talkie, a man's voice rang out...

"I found... that Dong... Xi. I can't fight... but... Dongzi and the others are already dead. I'm... going..."

But before he finished speaking, the communication stopped abruptly...
