Chapter 153 Asking for Directions
Chapter 153 Asking for Directions
At this time, a voice that sounded young was heard outside the door. Everyone was even more frightened when they heard it. Who in this world would dare to wander around outside so openly and still have the mood to ask for directions? Now that cannibalism has already happened, could it be that the big dog outside the door has become a spirit and started talking!
Old Li immediately signaled for everyone to be quiet. He carefully looked out through the observation hole that he had reserved earlier, and saw a boy of about seventeen or eighteen years old standing at the door. He was pushing a supermarket shopping cart and standing at the door. It seemed that the boy noticed that he was peeking, and he turned his head and smiled at him.
Old Li felt uneasy and looked away immediately. Then he looked around carefully and confirmed that there were no infected bodies or monsters around. He breathed a sigh of relief and motioned for others to be quiet. He leaned against the hole and whispered, "You are talking about Shunlin Supermarket, right? It used to be called Shunlin Department Store, but later it opened at the gate of the community on the next street. But that's a community, and there are a lot of monsters over there. There are a lot of empty houses nearby. I advise you to find a place to hide and stop hanging around outside!"
Old Li was not a heartless person who was defenseless against others. He naturally maintained a certain degree of vigilance and suspicion towards this strange boy who suddenly appeared. After all, in this world, cannibalism has happened. Who can be trusted? But seeing that the other person was not very old, he couldn't help but warn him.
Moreover, the young man at the door really looked out of place with the surrounding environment. His clothes were too clean and he didn't look like someone who had struggled in the apocalypse at all.
In fact, he didn't even want to respond at first, but for some reason, when he saw the boy smiling at him, he couldn't help but say what was in his heart. And after answering the other party, he seemed to get a great sense of satisfaction in his heart. He hadn't felt that kind of joy for a long time.
"Okay, thank you uncle, you guys continue! Dahei, let's go!" Zagreus curled up the corners of his mouth, sprinkled a little joy as a gift for asking for directions, and slowly left with the cart.
When everyone heard the footsteps gradually fading away outside the door, they inexplicably felt relaxed, as if all the depression that had been accumulating in their hearts recently was swept away.
"Old Li, who was that just now?"
"I don't know. It doesn't look big, so I asked for directions! But this kid is a little weird, I don't dare to let him in. Now that he's gone, let's just ignore him. I just saw that the monsters outside are gone. Let's get out quickly and take all the stuff with us! There's enough time today, we should be able to bring back more stuff!"
街尾
Wang Shun finally climbed out of the yard from the back door with a ladder, fully armed. After hiding the ladder, he carefully observed the surroundings and was ready for a big fight. However, he found that there was no infected body around. In the past, there were always scattered infected people wandering around on this street. He didn't know what happened today.
However, today is his deadline, and he is still short of the crystal core of an infected body, which he must find. He caught one by chance before, and he was lucky enough to have a crystal core. He thought that as long as he found another one, it should not be a problem.
He looked around the store and found that almost all the doors had been knocked open. He gritted his teeth and went to look carefully for several houses, only to find that he didn't see a single infected person. He suddenly felt anxious.
After all, it would be dangerous to go any further. He had observed that the area nearby was where many survivors passed by. After all, there was only one straight street, so it was relatively safe here. However, he did not expect that it was cleaned up particularly well today.
He deliberately made some noise and then hid aside. He found that no infected body appeared after waiting for a long time. His heart sank suddenly, and he estimated that the infected bodies on this street had been cleared today.
If you want to find other infected bodies, you probably have to look for them on the next road.
Their street is at the back of the area. Further back is a river, and across from it are fields planted by farmers. So when the infection broke out, this place was considered to be a sparsely populated area.
But it would be a bit dangerous to go forward, because their street is close to the intersection, and there are supermarkets and residential areas across the street. However, this road was blocked by many vehicles when the black fog fell. It happened that their intersection was blocked, so a natural protection circle was formed. Many vehicles blocked the entrance to the street, so most of the people they faced were infected bodies in this street.
As for the exit that Zagros came in from, it was also a small path that few people walked on. All the infected bodies he passed by were trampled to death by Dahei. It was really not easy for Wang Shun to find an infected body now.
So Wang Shun could only choose to take the risk and pass through the traffic on the street to see if he could find a lone infected body among them. However, Wang Shun mainly wanted to find some teammates to go with him. After all, it was too dangerous to go alone. But he had been hiding at home, so he didn't know anyone. But he did bring some food with him, so he thought it would be reasonable to use this in exchange.
So he waited for Zagreus.
Zagros was also very depressed. He had heard of Shunlin Department Store when he was a child and it was a popular place here, but he had never been here. He asked for directions on a whim, but he didn't expect that it had become so big and strong that it had opened a supermarket.
He originally planned to experience the joy of shopping for free, but ended up having to walk a longer distance, so he threw away the small cart he had prepared along the way, and Dahei returned to his normal size, otherwise, with his size, he would not be able to move around in this street.
