From the usual ten-hour driving distance, it took them 26 hours to drive and walked one-third of the distance they covered. But as time passed, Lian Ru Ning’s heart became more and more anxious. The chaotic period has passed, but a more dangerous period has arrived. Those who survived will face competition for food and resources, even to the point of killing each other. If her family survived by chance, will they be able to save their lives in the face of such a predicament?

The car suddenly slowed down, Lian Ru Ning recovered and saw Hao Jian driving. After they escaped from Xinhe Elementary School, she switched with Hao Jian after driving for two hours. Fortunately, they took turns to rest so that no accidents would happen due to fatigue driving.

“What’s the matter?” Lian Ru Ning asked. Xin Ting who closed her eyes in the back seat and was sleepy, sobered up in an instant and looked out the car window eagerly. She thought there was another zombie attack.

After the car was tossed by the zombies, even the window was cracked. Even when they were driving, she did not dare to sleep with complete peace of mind She happen to hear Lian Ru Ning’s voice, and she was so nervous that she wasn’t sleepy anymore.

Hao Jian lowered her head and looked up at the sign on it and said, “The car is running out of gas. There is a gas station ahead, please prepare .”Although they had refueled before, Hao Jian had no barrels to hold more gasoline, so they had to go to the gas station to refuel every time they were running out of gas. But this time, Xin Ting found to barrels of peanut oil in the school and stuffed them in the trunk, which also came in handy this time.

After hearing Hao Jian’s words to prepare, Lian Ru , and Xin Ting naturally knew what to prepare. There is often a great risk in places like gas stations. After all, there are many people who come to refuel and there are also people who grab resources in gas station stores, which leads to an increase in the chance of zombies appearing here.

The closer they get to Southern City, the more zombies they will encounter and the danger gradually increases. So on the road, Lian Ru Ning and Xin Ting also picked up some handy tools, Lian Ru Ning picked up a fruit machete at the fruit stand on the roadside while Xin Ting picked up a baseball bat.

When the gas station appeared within their sight, they were finally able to take a breath of air-conditioning, the gas station is wonderful!

This gas station is located in town, and there are many used cars in the open space next to it. It can be seen that there are few people here on weekdays so it’s used as a parking lot for scrap cars. On the right side of the gas station is a driving school and auto repair shops on the opposite side.

There’s a problem with their car, and these auto repair shops can provide parts for their car! And because the gas station looks like a waste parking lot, many cars will not stop here to refuel. However, Hao Jian could smell gasoline, and with such a smell, it would certainly not be an abandoned gas station! However, the convenience store at the gas station has already closed its doors and a pile of dirt on the glass indicated like it has been abandoned for years. But Hao Jian will not be deceived. After all, the dirt was wiped of artificially, and there is a possibility that someone is inside.

But before that, what they need to face are the five zombies that have heard the sound of the car and ran over.

These zombies have been wandering outside, but they are weren’t together. Their distance is about seventy to eighty meters, and the nearest one is twenty to thirty meters.

“You can’t let them all come together, otherwise the three of us will find it difficult to deal with the five zombies.” Hao Jian said, they must solve the zombies at close range before the zombies in the distance rush over, and destroying them one by one is the best way to survive.

Xin Ting hadn’t tried to hit the zombies directly, her lips trembled with fright, and her hands and feet were shaking. Hao Jian glanced at her and said, “Yours is a baseball bat, and you are weak. Don’t directly meet them. I’ll drive into them and you help watch if there are other zombies coming by,”

Xin Ting seemed to be relieved and nodded hurriedly.

Although Lian Ru Ning is also very nervous, she and Hao Jian have faced this situation too many times in the past two days. Although she really wants to survive, she is prepared to fight without fearing death, so she can bravely stand up and fight side by side with Hao Jian.

As for Hao Jian, who had already killed many zombies, she became more and more comfortable with it, from being forced to adapting the situation. She sometimes paralyzes herself and thinks that she is playing a game, so that her adrenal glands will rise, making her bolder.

As soon as Hao Jian stepped on the gas pedal, she controlled the speed and rushed directly towards the two zombies in front of them. With a ‘bang’, a male zombie was quickly caught under the wheel by her, and the other zombie was knocked a few meters away between two scrap cars. She then slowed down and crushed a thinner zombie, hit the brakes, grabbed the crowbar, opened the door and went out of the car, and hit the zombie behind her back and the rising zombies with all her strength.

Hao Jian’s actions had been rehearsed many times in her heart, and she did not panic at all. The male zombie was hit by her and hit the rear of the car directly. Although his body had deformed in many places, he felt no pain at all and struggled to rush towards Hao Jian.

‘Pop!’ Hao Jian’s crowbar was already handy, hitting the zombie’s forehead directly, that caused a missing skull.

Xin Ting was so scared that she stayed in the car and didn’t dare to move, until the glass window was smashed by the zombie’s head and some blood stained the window glass. She was so frightened that she used a baseball bat to hit it desperately, screaming, “Ah. Ahhh!”

The zombie’s head was pushed out of the car window by her baseball bat and there was no movement for a while. She opened her eyes a little and found that Hao Jian looked at her with a faint smile, “You call it again, it’s not just these five zombies.”

Xin Ting closed her mouth immediately, Hao Jian didn’t have time to pay attention to her, but turned to look at Lian Ru Ning.

When Hao Jian crushed the thin zombies under the wheels, it still did not forget to reach out and grab Hao Jian, but he was too far away to reach her. At this time, Lian Ru Ning also plucked up the courage to open the car door and saw that a zombie hand was grabbing her. She slashed it with a knife in a hurry and removed the zombie arm like a carrot.

The zombie arm was very fragile, but she didn’t have time to think about it, so she endured the nausea and killed the zombie completely. The blood of the zombie can no longer flow so even if she uses cruel methods, no blood will splash on her body.

The moment she looked up, she also found that Hao Jian had killed the male zombie, while Xin Ting seemed to be screaming without noticing it. She looked around nervously, except that the zombie stuck between the waste cars struggled more violently, and the other two zombies that were about to run towards them. No new zombies were found.

“When you solve the two zombies, be careful.” Hao Jian said to Lian Ru Ning.

“You too.” Lian Ru Ning nodded, she still had confidence in Hao Jian.

The two rushed in one after the other. Hao Jian’s movements became more and more flexible, and the quasi-center of the hitting direction became more and more precise. With Lian Ru Ning killed another zombie next to her, she can also deal with the zombie in front of her with no distraction.

After fighting for a while, the two zombies also fell down. Hao Jian and Lian Ru Ning rested for a while then walked towards the stuck zombie. . . They can’t leave the zombie and not deal with it.

“Sorry, I’m really useless.”

At the gas station, Lian Ru Ning found a faucet, and when it was opened, there was still clear water. She washed her hands and cleaned up the blood on the knife, while Hao Jian was doing something else, Xin Ting walked to Lian Ru Ning’s side and apologized for what happened just now.

When Hao Jian and Lian Ru Ning were solving the remaining two zombies, she got out of the car and failed to complete the task Hao Jian gave her. Although they did no blame her at the time, she felt very guilty after seeing them fighting.

“Not everyone is born to be like this.” Lian Ru Ning smiled slightly, “There were still living people forty-eight hours or twenty-four hours ago. Even if they have become zombies, if they attack us, it is also very difficult to kill them.”

“But I can’t even follow and help you.”

“You have only been out with us for a short time, so you are still not used to it. After a few days, when you figure it out, you won’t be afraid anymore.”

Xin Ting wanted to say something and heard a ‘clam’ from the gas station, like a crash of a gas gun being thrown into the ground for no reason.

“Hao Jian!” Lian Ru Ning’s heart jumped, grabbing a knife and rushing over.

After passing the waste cars and their sight not obstructed, she saw two men; one holding a knife and the other holding an axe, each placed on Hao Jian’s neck, while Hao Jian had raised both her hands in a surrender.

Hearing the voice of Lian Ru Ning, the two men looked at each other and said, “If you don’t want your partner to have trouble, put the knife down and come over!”

Lian Ru Ning’s hear tightened. After looking at the expressionless Hao Jian and tangles in her heart, she chose to put the knife down and walked towards them. Many bad thoughts flashed in her mind, especially after she and Hao Jian had encountered people who were unkind to them. And between hers and Hao Jian’s life or keeping her virginity, she chose the former.

Even if they only knew each other for only three days, she could no longer do such a selfish thing like abandoning Hao Jian for her own safety.

“And you!” The two men looked at Xin Ting who was behind fiercely,

Xin Ting didn’t know where the two people come from and she had never experienced what Hao Jian and Lian Ru Ning experienced before, so she wasn’t as worried as Lian Ru Ning was in her heart. She thought that the other side was discussing whether they were humans or zombies.

Seeing that they were following obediently, the two men breathed a sigh of relief. The man with the knife released Hao Jian and turned to Lian Ru Ning. He motioned to Lian Ru Ning and said, “Behave and follow us in.”

Lian Ru Ning’s body was sweaty and her heart pounding,
Where do they want them to go in? Are they going to do something?
