Chapter 3 Chapter Three Escape to the Tree

Lu Yunpei turned his head to look, and behind him was the two-story wooden building that he had escaped with great difficulty. The entire building was painted vermilion, and there was a small passage leading directly to the vestibule on the ground floor. That's where the sound came from. He remembered that the passage was small and straight, and it led to the kitchen.But his realization passed through the hallway and caught nothing. That voice was weird, but it was actually quite familiar to my ears.It seemed to be chopping wood with an axe, but the sound was too dull, muffled, and it sounded uncomfortable.

Then he heard a muffled voice. He couldn't make out what was being said, but it sounded like the man of the house was muttering. Could it be that there are still people in this homestay?Is it really just a coincidence that the girl next door turned into a zombie? Lu Yunpei regained his energy immediately, and he greeted loudly: "Hello, is anyone there?" No one answered, but the sound of the ax being struck became more frequent. Maybe the sound of the ax overwhelmed his roar, Lu Yunpei told himself.Go over and have a look, maybe you can really find a big living person. Thinking about it, his footsteps began to hesitate again, wondering if he should go and have a look.But what if you run into another zombie?But if you can't pass, you will be very unwilling after all. If you are really a normal person?if……

He knew that his thoughts were contradictory, but he couldn't help but want to explore them. He was scared, he was scared to death. He is afraid of the living dead, but he is even more afraid that he is the only normal person left in the world. The human spirit is really fragile. Once encountering a sudden event beyond the tolerance of an individual human being, even the strongest person can't help but think wildly.Although he feels that the vague concept gradually formed in the depths of his heart is not his fantasy, and even, it is very likely to be a fact! He wants to meet a normal person!Want to talk to normal people!Damn, it doesn't matter who it is.

Although the horrible thing has happened since he got up in the morning, yes, it has only been more than 20 minutes, but he feels very lonely, helpless, and terrified. The feeling of fear goes deep into his bones, and he needs a normal person to share his pain. panic. Human beings are such social creatures. When they encounter unfamiliar situations in a familiar environment, once they are alone, they will become chaotic and disorderly. Lu Yunpei held back his fear and walked slowly towards the source of the voice step by step. Subconscious voices kept telling him that there was probably no one alive in this homestay, and the most urgent task now was to escape as soon as possible, to the outside world to see what the hell happened.

However, he understands that if he doesn't take a closer look, he will definitely regret it.This is not caused by curiosity, but by human nature and luck. He glanced around, picked up a broom at hand, stepped on the handle of the broom with one foot, broke off the part of the broom with his hand as sharp as possible, and then walked slowly into the corridor . As I remembered, the corridor was short and straight, only six meters long.Since the opening faces the south, there is a lack of sunlight all year round, and it is dark, like a monster with its bloody mouth wide open, waiting for him to walk in.

Lu Yunpei groped around the wall at the entrance of the corridor, and finally found the light switch.The incandescent lamp above his head flickered a few times, panting like an old man in his twilight years, and managed to light it up. The light was dim, but enough to give him a clear view of his surroundings. "The owner of this house is really saving electricity. The energy department will definitely go crazy when he finds out. With him like this, how much money does the power company have to make?" Lu Yunpei murmured to himself for courage, and tightly grabbed the broomstick with both hands.

Soon, the distance of 6 meters was gone, and at the end was the kitchen door, and there was a clear sound of an ax chopping things inside. He stuck to the door and listened for a while, and he did hear someone's words. Although the voice was a little low and still not clear, he was sure that the speaker must be a normal person.He can judge a lot of information from the voice coming from his ears. The person inside speaks at a slow speed, with clear pronunciation, and his Mandarin is more standard than his. Lu Yunpei felt his heart beating suddenly, his eye sockets were even flushed irregularly, and he felt like he had found an organization in his heart.His heart relaxed, and he pushed open the door in front of him with his right hand without hesitation.

A rotten smell unique to the kitchen rushed towards him as the door opened. He immediately covered his nose. Strange, mixed with the rotten smell in the air, there seemed to be another weird stench.But he, who was full of joy, obviously didn't care, and walked in with great excitement before he had time to look at the surrounding environment. People are like this, once they see a glimmer of hope in despair, they will lose their reason and calm judgment.Lu Yunpei obviously lost his usual vigilance, he froze the second he stepped into the kitchen. The entire kitchen was empty, and no one was seen.

The kitchen is not big, only about 30 square meters. In order to reduce costs, this homestay uses coal to cook food.Since there are many dishes that need to be prepared at the same time every day, the stove is decorated so that six large pots and five steamers can work together. Lu Yunpei froze for a moment, and began to scan his surroundings, but he still didn't see anyone. He pricked up his ears and listened. The moment he pushed the door and came in, the sound of the ax stopped, but the sound of people talking softly was still there.It looks like it's behind the big stove. Not long after, the sound of the ax chopping sounded again.A very ominous premonition suddenly emerged from the bottom of his heart. Lu Yunpei swallowed a mouthful of saliva, then licked his dry lips, and then walked slowly towards the source of the moan step by step.

It's getting closer, getting closer, and the scene behind the stove is reflected in the retina little by little. I saw a man standing not far away with his body bent.Judging from his clothing and sparse hair surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea, it is not difficult to judge that it is the male owner of this homestay. He was holding an ax for chopping wood, and was chopping the ground one by one.Every time the ax was cut, a trace of bright red liquid was splashed. is blood. Lu Yunpei looked at the position where the ax was cutting with a dull gaze.Suddenly, he trembled all over. The male owner of this house actually killed the official hostess of the homestay, his own wife.He raised and lowered his hand mechanically, as if he was about to dismember his wife with an axe.

There is a radio not far away, playing something.The voice from inside was the source of the clear voice that attracted me to come over to see the situation. "Damn it!" Lu Yunpei shuddered, turned around and ran away. Behind him, the male master slowly turned his head with an ax in hand. His eyes were exactly the same as those of the little girl next door, only the whites remained in the eye sockets.I don't know how his retina is made up, but as soon as Lu Yunpei ran away, the male master who turned into a zombie followed suit. The zombie was still holding the ax used for chopping wood tightly in his hand, and his body twitched, but the speed was not slow. Lu Yunpei quickly ran out of the house, and couldn't help but look back. After seeing this, he suddenly took a deep breath. I saw that the zombie was already following me, with that indomitable posture, I guess no matter how I ran, it would not lose it, and the ax in my hand was still waving in the air from time to time.If he didn't hurry up and was thrown over, he probably only needed an ax to chop himself down. He was so frightened that he ran into the playground behind the house. The grape trellis nearly two meters high above the head is lush, covering the entire sky. Although it is morning, the sun is not bright.Under the grape trellis, the surroundings looked gloomy, and the living dead chasing after him was killing people. In the venue under the grape arbor, there are many tables built with bricks, which were originally used for playing mahjong, but they have become the best obstacles at this time. Lu Yunpei ran around those brick tables as much as possible. The zombie's IQ was obviously not high. It roared and followed Lu Yunpei around in circles. Although the speed was not slow, it was still not as flexible as a living person.After a while, Lu Yunpei opened the distance. It didn't take long before the field ran out and he headed off into the woods.The general behind him was still unyielding, it sprayed blood foam, its white eyes were covered with bright red bloodshot, it swung an ax and slashed wildly, and ran into the woods. Lu Yunpei estimated the distance.I was about 50 meters away from it, but if I wanted to get rid of it completely, I guess it would be impossible if I didn't encounter any obstacles that I couldn't pass through. I really don't know why the zombie is so dedicated. When this guy was alive, he had never seen him so full of Olympic spirit. After running forward for a while, he felt that his lungs were about to explode, and it became more and more difficult to breathe.This is also true. He never ran for such a long time when he played outdoors, let alone when he became a salesman of an insurance company and worked. Since I started this job, I have been busy every day without a break.Apart from socializing and drinking everywhere, and the beer belly getting bigger and bigger, it seems that I didn't get much benefit. Fortunately, the habit of exercising has been retained. It's even better now, not only was he sent to such a place where the birds don't shit, but he also met some damn zombies for no apparent reason. I’ve only seen this stuff on TV. If I didn’t clearly understand that I’m still in this country, the media and TV stations don’t bother to play this kind of tune to entertain the public. I really thought it was a prank by some TV station. . But it seems that today is not April Fool's Day, and what I am encountering right now is not some funny and thrilling family carnival, nor is it that I have traveled to another world.I did meet the legendary zombie, and he was so immortal, as long as he was caught by the zombie chasing him, even if he thought about it with his knees, he would definitely die a miserable death. He hasn't married a wife yet, and hasn't passed on the family line, so how can he die?What's more, that kind of death is too embarrassing! Lu Yunpei himself found it strange that he was admiring himself for being able to think wildly at such a critical moment! Just persisting like this, I suddenly found that the woods had been crossed by myself, and I finally escaped to the end of this homestay.But looking forward, he almost fainted on the ground. Not far away stood a wall, a wall that was more than two meters high and looked a bit thick. It was only then that he remembered that the homestay had walls, and there was only one exit from this home, which was across the open space in front of the two-story wooden building. Depend on!Being frightened, confused and panicked, I ran all the way towards the gate, and now I really made myself cornered. what to do!What should I do? Lu Yunpei hurriedly looked around.The one behind him was getting closer and closer, and he could even hear the rustling of the zombie stepping on the leaves, as well as its low growl. The wall directly opposite is too high, and there is no place to climb at all. It is obviously unrealistic to climb over.But, do you really want to stand here and wait to die? Damn it, just turn around and rush to the zombie, and fight that bastard thing. But as soon as his line of sight came into contact with that terrifying and ferocious face, the thought suddenly melted away. The owner of this family may be a little cowardly at times, and his body is also thin, so he probably can choose one or two. But after it died, it was a little uncertain. In addition, it didn't know pain, and it was still pulling an ax in its hand without sportsmanship.It is estimated that with its current comprehensive combat power, it can at least pick five of itself. Damn, hitting is killing you.If you don't fight, you will die.What should I do? Zombies are getting closer.Suddenly, Lu Yunpei's sight touched a tall fir tree nearby. Look at my flustered head, since there is no way to go to heaven and no way to go down to earth, then just climb up the tree, I don't believe that zombies can climb trees. Without thinking about it any further, Lu Yunpei found a big tree with many branches, easy to climb, tall and big, and a thick trunk, and climbed up.Just as he climbed two meters, the zombie had already jumped to his feet.The zombie swung the ax and almost hit his heel. Fortunately, Lu Yunpei was lucky. Climb all the way up to the position of five meters, look down, and see the zombie holding the axe, circling under the tree in a completely bewildered manner, unable to figure out where the man ran to just now up. Fortunately, it seems that zombies really can't climb trees!Lu Yunpei let out a deep breath. Not long after his peace of mind, he suddenly remembered something. No, seeing that the underground zombies can't find anyone, but there is no sign of leaving.If it doesn't go away, how dare it go down.If you can't go down, what will you eat and drink by yourself, and how can you leave? Thinking of this, his face turned pale, and his stomach let out an unsatisfactory "grunt", feeling hungry. He didn't eat breakfast, and he did such an intense exercise. Now that his nerves have relaxed, negative emotions such as fatigue, exhaustion, fear, hunger, etc. have all been used in one brain. After thinking about it carefully, he took out some snacks and water from his backpack.Fortunately, I was calm in the face of danger, and subconsciously stuffed some in, otherwise I would really starve to death. Now we can only endure and see who will fall first.The food and water must be distributed. Lu Yunpei opened the backpack again, and was about to sort out the food and water in the bag and distribute them reasonably. Suddenly, by a strange coincidence, he saw a newspaper. That newspaper was picked up at the station when he first came to this small town. It was a local newspaper called "Mosong Weekly". The date of the newspaper was ten days ago. For some reason, his gaze actually stayed on a piece of news in the newspaper.
