Although Chengxiang is a relatively poor and underdeveloped prefecture-level city in the province, it has been slowly developing in recent years because of tourism. Such as the reservoir side of the Green Lake Leisure Resort tourism area, Guishan scenic tourism area, riverside galleries, Hakka rural scenic area. . .

Not to mention the remote and convenient location of Xiaochuan county with no tourist resources, but the hot spring resort near the urban area of Chengxiang is the only tourist area in Chengxiang that focuses on the theme of ‘hot spring leisure and vacation’.

From where Hao Jian and the others came, the driving distance is quite far from the city, filled with beautiful mountains and clear waters. And because of the proximity to the first-tier Xiang city, there are many families with children who would drive to the hot spring resort every holiday to soak in, play golf, or have parent-child bonding activities.

The zombie outbreak was during the summer holidays, plus the public’s awareness of the virus is not deep. Due to various reasons such as physical discomfort or taking the children to play, hot spring resorts are quite the popular choice for a vacation.

After being upgraded to level 3, many zombies had already appeared in the hot spring resorts.

Because of this, the government hurriedly shut down the services of major tourist areas while organizing the town’s police authorities, semi-blocked the hot spring resort, and no one was allowed to enter. People were only allowed to leave in the direction of Xiang city.

Huang Yueming’s two nieces and nephews escaped because they had to go home for the summer and do farm work while she herself escaped from Green Lake and was denied passage when she passed by.

She showed Hao Jian and her group the route she took to escape, which was a small road on the edge of the golf course that few tourists knew about except for them, the local villagers. In addition, the town’s authorities aren’t enough to block all paths, so Hao Jian and the others can pass through there.

Huang Yueming also said that even though the town’s government has made the decision for a semi-blockade, the resort still has people turning into zombies every day. The people who survived either hid or were organized to annihilate the zombies, who then became the new batch of zombies after being unfortunately injured. . .

Hao Jian and the others drove around the muddy and bumpy road, beside the road was an artificial river that’s more than two meters wide. The artificial river is formed around the periphery of the golf course. Although it isn’t known how wide it is, it can be said that it’s a natural barrier to the golf course.

Seeing the zombies wandering in groups of two and three, Peng Mao clicked his tongue and said, “In this world, no matter how rich you are, you still have to speak with your fists in the end. Using fists shouldn’t be hard, the rich could only wander around the golf course extravagantly.”

“It sounds like you’re quite hostile to the rich.” Shi Gong Dui pointed out.

Peng Mao suddenly remembered that the one beside him is a rich their generation man and asked, “Have you ever played golf? I heard that a shot costs several dozen yuan, is it true?”

“Not everyone who’s rich plays golf, especially me, someone from the third generation. But of course, they want to spend their money on the edge!”

“Such as buying snacks?”

“If you can. Don’t eat my snacks.”

Xin Ting wrinkled her eyebrows, “You guys, stop arguing! there are zombies coming over!”

The three of them looked out, only to see that the movement of their car attracted the zombies in the golf course from the opposite side of the artificial river and ran over. They originally thought that there were only two or three zombies, but it turns out that it was because some zombies were blocked due to the venue and when they all ran out, the group realized that this place is a zombie nest!

Seeing that the road ahead is about to head to the golf course, the adrenaline of the three soared. Shi Gong Dui gritted his teeth and accelerated, “You guys really don’t let people sit idly by and chat?!”

As the car accelerated, the bumps were getting more and more powerful. On the contrary, when they looked at Hao Jian and Lian Ru Ning behind them, they saw that Hao Jian drove the motorcycle directly on the slope.

They want to change to motorcycles too. . .

Fortunately, the artificial river hasn’t been breached and many ordinary zombies that fell into the river stopped moving. The three were relieved and were just about to say, ‘luckily the zombies can’t swim’ until they saw a head floating out of the water again, scaring Shi Gon Dui who nearly turned the steering wheel the wrong way and rolled into the river.

“I’m X, I’m scared to death, dad!” Shi Gong Dui steadied his body and couldn’t help but curse.

“Zombies know how to swim?!” Peng Mao was also very scared, but he, who had already been to the toiled just now, was able to avoid the embarrassment of peeing in his pants again.

Xin TIng has seen all kinds of horror movies and seeing this scene reminded her of the psychological shadows left by all kinds of horror movies. She secretly wiped her tears,
‘Biting and eating people is scary enough, but they actually learned to pretend to be ghosts to scare people, zombies are really becoming too much!’

When they finally escaped from the golf course, Hao Jian and Lian Ru Ning slowed down to rejoin them and found that they all looked grim, like they had been ravaged dozens of times.

“What’s wrong? Were you ravaged by zombies?”

Peng Mao grasped the iron net window to complain to them that the zombies were too much. Lian Ru Ning listened, who can’t help but look away to snicker while Hao Jian let out a round of a hearty laugh and said, “I think zombies really can’t swim, but don’t forget that their lungs stopped, so they don’t float when underwater, so they can walk as long as their feet can touch the ground.

That’s why there was a scene of a zombie’s head emerging out of the water.

Xin Ting’s eyes widened, “Does that mean that even water can’t prevent zombies? Then Jiangxin Island refugee base. . .”

“I think Jiangxin Island refugee base also discovered this matter, that’s why they first built a barbed-wire fence around the island before sending people out to patrol. But in general, as long as the island is not surrounded by smooth terrain, the zombies will have difficulty getting to shore.”

Shi Gong Dui busily interrupted, “Classmate Hao, you’re quite awesome to collect that much information!”

Hao Jian smiled, “It means I have good people skills. People are happy to tell me what they find.”

The four people who are ‘not well liked’ “. . .”

It isn’t surprising that Hao Jian knew about this, after all, she once asked the system questions about various possibilities and the system’s principle is that it can pass on relevant research results based on existing ones.

So, with such a large institution in the country, the progress of various researches on zombies is thought to be amazing, aside from no antidote have been found, research experts have already conducted experiments on what methods could be used to prevent zombies.

The method of using water to defend against zombie attacks has also been researched and they found that zombies can walk underwater. Of course, the researchers have not conducted experiments in the sea, but it’s conceivable that even if zombies can walk underwater, they will still be crushed when they’re at sea.

With these experimental results as a basis, the government has been trying to find ways to pass this knowledge to various shelters, hoping that when they choose water as a means of defense, they must make the surrounding terrain steeper so that zombies can’t climb up.

However, after ‘Wugui’ forces penetrated all parties, news in some places lagged slightly behind. The lag of news is good for ‘Wugui’ and use this information to take the initiative.

Hao Jian couldn’t be sure whether the authorities of this town knew these things, but she also didn’t intend to head over to be a messenger.

However, after Shi Gong Dui switched with Peng Mao and drove, he took out the wireless device and began to tinker. Xin Ting and peng Mao couldn’t understand what he was doing, but Hao Jian told them to believe him so they didn’t ask any more questions.

She thought he was repeating his old trick, trying to use the radio system to draw all zombies away so they could get through the hot spring resort, but until they were about to leave the blockade, they didn’t hear any movement coming from the surrounding radio.

Xin Ting caught a glimpse of him editing a long text inserted into a pile of code and sent it out. Although she had doubts in her mind, she still held back from asking.

From leaving the golf course to the first county road entrance and exit, Hao Jian and the others spent more than forty minutes from the original ten-minute journey. Every time they escaped was a frightening endeavor.

They drove a few hundred meters further before entering another county road. However, the town’s government office building is also there. It obviously belongs to the blockaded area, so they chose the nearest county road.

However, this road doesn’t seem very smooth. There were abandoned vehicles everywhere on the road. Compared to the mountain roads they’ve traveled before that have few zombies, there are zombies to be seen almost every 100 meters.

As the number of zombies increased, everyone wasn’t in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery along the way. They are also slowly realizing that the closer they get to first and second-tier big cities, the more zombies there are and are gradually increasing.

It took them three times as long to get to the entrance of the other highway that leads directly to Xiang City when the sun began to set.

Given that it wasn’t safe to drive at night, they chose to spend the night in a factory nearby.

The factory is two to three kilometers away from the front and rear villages. Because there are roads dug in the mountains, the air is full of dust when cars pass by on sunny days while the road becomes muddy and bumpy on rainy days and isn’t on the provincial highway, so the place is quite desolate.

After clearing the zombies near the factory, Shi Gong Dui asked Hao Jian, “How did you find this place? The map doesn’t show such places, right?”

The paper map doesn’t show detailed structures, so Hao Jian naturally relied on the system map to find their way, but after she concluded that ‘Ding Gunian may be a host,’ she became particularly careful about anything that could reveal her ability, so she thought of a good excuse.

“The offline map on the phone now has a satellite map, didn’t you know?”

Shi Gong Dui said, ‘Oh’ and first drove the car inside the factory.

Xin Ting looked at Hao Jian, wanting to say something.

Lian Ru Ning felt a little strange, so she took Hao Jian’s hand. Hao Jian turned to her and whispered, “What’s wrong? Do you want to relive your old dream?”

“. . . I want to talk about serious things with you!”

“Am I not serious?”

You still have the nerve to say you’re serious with this kind of embarrassing talk!

Lian Ru Ning pointed at Xin Ting, “Xiao Ting seems to have something to tell you.”

“Got it. I’ll look for her later when I’m free.”

Hao Jian was about to leave when Lian Ru Ning pulled her back and urged, “You have to be more careful about what you say to your companions.”

“I’ll listen to little sister.” Hao Jian replied with a big smile.

Lian Ru Ning was stunned by her smile, and when she left, she couldn’t help but secretly sigh. Although she’s more likely to be favored this way, in fact, Hao Jian’s charming personality is rather more attractive in her eyes.

The person who couldn’t see Hao Jian’s beauty is really blind. Before she knew it, Lian Ru Ning couldn’t help but become angry on behalf of her girlfriend.
