Apocalypse Cockroach

Staring at the Yiyang Lin a few dozen meters from the distant river beach, Zhang Xiaoqiang looked up to the sky, at this time just before dusk, at the most beautiful time of the sunset, the tile blue sky was still as bright as sapphire, the sunset was high, the red day seemed to consume too much heat during the day, not as bright glare as at noon, but rather dark red, under the blow of the river wind, looking at the sunset with a hint of poetic painting, walking on a flat and spacious land, looking at the seemingly endless vegetation, like walking in the grasslands, really responding to the desert loneliness, the long river sunset circle, two ancient poems.

Shortly before, there was a trail ahead, saw the road, many people were a little confused, they were completely immersed in the beauty of the plain setting sun, how to see the road, let them jump back from the wild pleasure, sudden conversion let most people faint, then they thought that they were not swimming in the autumn, but in the perilous end of life, carrying out the task of life and death unknown.

By the end of the trail, the reeds had grown on both sides. Last year's reeds had not been harvested. This year's reeds had grown again. The old reeds were lying on the side of the channel, like piles of dead graves, dead graves. The new reeds had grown lush and lush, and seemed to prove the significance of life.

The most common tree on both sides of the road is the short tree, the tree is not high, any one person can jump under the tree, can climb to the highest branch, on the low tree, a huge bird's nest, look carefully, all built with the dead branches of Yang, the bird's nest is like the abandoned house after the end of the life, the bird goes to the nest sky, I don't know what kind of bird is left behind, and naturally I don't know whether these birds have mutated or have been eliminated by the end of the life.

Looking up, Zhang Xiaoqiang was somewhat curious that village buildings could not be found in the first place. Before the end of his life, apart from the rugged neighborhood and deserted wasteland, there were few uninhabited open spaces on the edge of the big city. Immediately, at the end of the distant road, he saw a number of wall tiles showing a corner in a small forest.

With the building, there is no need to set up tents on the wasteland. The walls surrounded by red bricks are safer than tarpaulin. Zhang Xiaoqiang takes people to the village, but he sees Huang Quan with five people out of the building hidden in the woods. He comes to the brigade led by Zhang Xiaoqiang. Zhang Xiaoqiang swept around and found Chen Ye and five other teammates absent. He wants to explore it elsewhere.

One big and one small two people meet in the middle of the road, Huang Quan quickly walks to Zhang Xiaoqiang and stands upright, then reports:

“Brother cockroach... the village over there has been abandoned for a long time, there is no furniture in the house, no one has been seen by the zombies, and the inhabitants should have been relocated before the end of their lives. ”

Zhang Xiaoqiang nodded unanswered, and the local militia behind him explained.

“I remember, what state is this? It was flooded in '98...”

“Yeah, yeah... it looks like it's been in the paper, and all the people here are moving...”

“I've been on a boat before, and this island used to be full of people from the river bank coming to plant fields...”

Zhang Xiaoqiang heard this place, nodded to Huang Quan, there were no zombies here, because no one here became a zombie, the only place where there were zombies, was the ship's cemetery that we had seen before, the reason why the ship was formed. When the end of life came, the crew became either a zombie or was eaten by zombies, the ship went out of control, the uncontrolled ship carried cargo and the zombie crew floating along the river, and almost all the ships that floated, except those that hit the shore, hit this natural beach land.

Looking at the sky is almost 6: 00, although it is only Mid-Autumn, but it is not too late at night. In about an hour, the sky will be completely dim. Zhang Xiaoqiang ordered his men to set up camp in the abandoned small village.

A pile of bonfires lit in the woods, the fuel was dead tree branches. Here, dead tree branches and dry reeds were everywhere. A big pot frame smoked white smoke on the bonfire. Looking at the white eyes, the tired militia surrounded by the bonfire also had a certain spirit, listening to the big pot mumbling over the water, the smell of rare porridge poured into the people's nose, let them smell the smell of rice porridge, and feel the rare and relaxing moment.

A gust of river wind poured on the bonfire and the flames rose, lighting the sparks from the flames to the people who sat in front of the fire. Although it was the middle autumn season, the weather was very hot during the day. At night, river winds blew, and people felt only warmth and not heat in front of the fire.

In this temporary camp, the people sitting on each other's boats during the day consciously divided into three groups, one militia member, one official team member, and one Zhang Xiaoqiang and several of his women.

Yellow Springs and Chen Ye were with the search team. Chen Ye was the chef. Chen Ye, like the men, threw rice into the pot and didn't care. She stirred it in the pot with a long spoon to prevent wheat from sticking to the bottom of the pot. Yellow Springs stared at the bear's bonfire and beside him, the soldiers sitting around maintained their weapons and equipment.

They were surrounded by a small number of people. The search team was Zhang Xiaoqiang's sharp knife, but also Zhang Xiaoqiang's eyes and nose. They had to be on guard outside to guard the boat, and even someone had to send them to eat.

“Okay... eat..." Chen Ye Qinglian said, drawing attention to the large pot, took out his metal lunch box, Chen Ye carefully gave Huang Quan porridge, and handed the long spoon to others.

Yellow Springs picked up the golden yellow wheat porridge, pickled the vegetables on the box cover, whispered and drank, waiting for the sound of the porridge to keep ringing around him, but he didn't hear the movement of Chen Ye, looked up to Chen Ye with his knees in his arms, stared at the flame and stunned, a strand of hair draped from Chen Ye's forehead to cover her eyes, the masked black towel covered her cheek, and Yellow Springs couldn't see what Chen Ye's expression was.

“What's wrong? Why don't you eat it? It tastes good. Try it? ”

Yellow Springs has long regarded Chen Ye as his closest relative. If Chen Ye doesn't eat it, he can't eat it either.

Chen Ye shook his head and buried his forehead against his knees. Huang Quan didn't know what happened to Chen Ye. He was a little anxious. Recall what was wrong with Chen Ye during the day. All of a sudden, he thought that if he ate, Chen Ye's soul would be defenceless.

“Worried about twins and twins? It's okay, they're not hungry, the big kitchen food tastes good, someone will open a small stove for them, you don't know, before I picked it up, she also fed her sister, you know, many big men starve, she is a smart ghost, can't starve her. ”

Hearing Huang Quan say this, Chen Ye raised his head and stared at Huang Quan's eyes, seemed to be discerning the authenticity, Huang Quan was naturally fearless, looked at Chen Ye's bright black crystal eyes without blinking, Chen Ye distorted his head and thought about it, a lunch box that had grabbed Huang Quan:

“Mine..." Chen Ye said. Lift the corner of the black towel and drink the porridge.

Huang Quan did not care that his lunch box had been taken away by Chen Ye. On the contrary, he was pleased that Chen Ye was eating with him in front of outsiders, proving that the distance between the two had reached a great step. However, Huang Quan always felt obstructed when he saw Chen Ye's masked black cloth. For a moment, he made a decision that he did not even expect. He reached out and pulled off the black cloth on Chen Ye's face and threw it on the fire.
