Chapter 44

The speed of taking a shortcut is really much faster and safer.

Soon after the end of the day, most of the zombies gathered in the city. When all the food in the city was finished, they would move to the surrounding areas.

Now the number of zombies outside the suburbs is several grades lower than that in the city center. Wandering zombies can no longer be seen everywhere. It may take a long distance to see one or two single zombies.

However, Duan Fei knew that all this safety and calm were only temporary.

It won't take long for the food in the city to be eaten, and then endless zombies will pour out of the city center. Finally, a corpse tide was formed, which made all humans extremely afraid.

In front of the corpse tide, all living things will be swallowed up, and almost no one can survive.

The party walked slowly along the path. The original route is a ring shape, and this shortcut directly crosses the whole route obliquely, which can directly access the refuge.

There are basically no zombies on the remote path, and everyone is a little relieved.

About two hours later, Duan Fei finally crossed the artificial forest. What appeared in front of us was a fork in the road.

On the left is the shortcut. If they follow this intersection, they should be able to reach the shelter in about three hours. On the right is the original route.

The sky over the road was desolate, and the silence was terrible.

Everyone turns left and is ready to go to the path on the left. But at this time, Duan Fei suddenly opened his mouth and stopped them.

"Wait a minute!"

As soon as the voice fell, everyone stopped and looked at him strangely.

"Brother Duan, what's the matter!" Cao Silong asked.

Duan Fei's eyes swept over the expressway, pointed to a direction and said, "there seems to be a car there. I'll have a look!"

"Car?" Cao Silong was slightly stunned and couldn't help turning his head. I can only see a very fuzzy white shadow in the distance. I can't see what it is, but I can still distinguish it from the overall outline. It seems to be a real car.

"What a car!" Cao Silong looked happy and blurted out.

After commander Luo established the shelter, all sections within a radius of 20 kilometers were cleaned up for the convenience of troops' travel and task execution.

In principle, there should be no cars parked on the road. If so, the car must have just appeared here.

At the thought of this, Cao slong's heart filled with joy. If so, the car is likely to start.

While he was thinking, Duan Fei had rushed towards the road. Before long, he came to the car.

This is really a white van. The window glass on the right has been completely broken, and there is still a piece of blood left on it.

There was only one person in the van, but he was lying on the steering wheel. His face was as white as paper. He was obviously dead.

After carefully looking at the body in front of him, Duan Fei found that there were serious traces of zombie bite on his right arm and shoulder. The terrible wound had completely rotted. This strange decay had slowly spread from the wound to his whole body.

Seeing this situation, Duan Fei was completely clear in his heart.

This man should want to drive a van to the shelter to seek shelter. Unexpectedly, he met a zombie on the way and tried his best to escape from the zombie. However, although he managed to escape, unfortunately, he was finally bitten by the zombie.

The strong virus spread to his whole body in an instant. He ran here through thousands of luck and hardships, but the virus finally killed him.

After glancing at him faintly, Duan Fei opened the door, dragged the body out of the car, and then cut off his head directly with a dagger.

It won't take long for him to become a zombie. Only by completely destroying his brain can he really rest in peace.

After that, Duan Fei sat in the car and checked everything carefully.

The car can start normally and has plenty of fuel. The key is the van for transporting goods, and the space in the van is also very large.

This is really good news for Duan Fei. With this van, they don't have to take a shortcut on foot, but can drive directly to the shelter.

After all, cars are much faster than walking.

After checking again that there was no problem, Duan Fei drove him to the crowd.

After seeing Duan Fei driving over, everyone was also very excited, because in this way, we can reach the shelter in advance and enter the protection of the army.

"Get in the car!" Duan Fei opened the door and shouted at everyone.

With everyone's help, the injured Cao slong got on the bus first, then ordinary survivors, and finally Xiao Qin.

"Brother Duan, I really have you!" The joy of the rest of life filled everyone's heart. Cao slong sat behind and shouted at Duanfei.

Duan Fei smiled and said, "this is also your good luck. Your life should not be lost."

Cao slong laughed and said nothing more.

After several struggles between life and death, everyone was physically and mentally exhausted and sat in their positions to rest.

No one spoke and the car was silent. Xiao Qin sat on the co pilot to show me the way. Under the driving of Duan Fei, the car drove forward quickly.

There were not many zombies here. Occasionally, one suddenly appeared. Duan Fei drove directly and bumped it recklessly, and the zombie was directly smashed.

There was no danger along the way, and the car quickly drove in the direction of the shelter.

I don't know how long it has passed. When Duan Fei's eyes coagulated about ten kilometers away from the shelter, he seemed to find something abnormal. His right foot slammed on the brake, and the van suddenly stopped in a violent tremor.

The sudden abnormality startled everyone. A soldier hurried through the rectangular hole in the carriage and shouted to Duan Fei, "brother Duan, what happened and how did the car stop?"

Hearing the soldier's words, Duan Fei's face was a little dignified. He waved to them and said, "look for yourself!"

With that, Duan Fei raised his hand and pointed to the front of the road.

Everyone stepped down from the car to see what had happened. However, when they focused on the front, they were stunned by the scene in front of them.

On the road not far away, groups of vehicles collided and blocked the whole road. Several large trucks overturned on the ground, and the goods were scattered all over the ground.

In addition to these collapsed and damaged cars, the ground is pockmarked and full of bullet marks. Zombies are everywhere. Of course, in addition to zombies, there are about six soldiers.

Looking at the picture in front of us, everyone can guess that there was a fierce battle in this place not long ago.

"The road is blocked. It's troublesome to drive from here!" Looking at the dilapidated road in front of him, Duan Fei has some dignity in his eyes.

According to the current situation, it is impossible to drive from here.

These vehicles have blocked the road. Even if these vehicles are removed, it will take at least a day. That's unrealistic. The only good news is that now they are only about ten kilometers away from the shelter. Even on foot, it won't take long to get there.

But now it's getting late. If you walk, so many people together can easily lead to zombies. There are too many unstable factors.

When Duan Fei couldn't make up his mind for a moment, Cao slong, who was helped down from the car, suddenly changed his face when he saw the collapsed military trucks and the bodies of the soldiers.

"No!" Cao slong exclaimed.

Seeing him like this, Duan Fei was slightly stunned and hurriedly asked, "brother Cao, what's the matter? What's the matter?"

Cao Silong stared at the picture in front of him, looked very worried and said: "these trucks are used by the army to escort important materials. I remember very clearly that he was transporting a team of very important scientists today. It seems that something should have happened!"

"Scientist!"

Hearing Cao Silong's words, Duan Fei's eyes coagulated and his face became serious slowly.
