Chapter 17: Human Heart in the Last Days 8
At noon the next day, the army arrived in the west of the city.
The weather was cold and the air became foggy, but hearing the gunshots from outside made the people in the community cheer, especially those ordinary people who dare not face zombies and the end of the world, living in a house for a month. At home, relying on a small amount of meager food to spend the day, almost weeping at the appearance of the army, mumbling that ZF did not abandon the people.
ZF did not abandon the people, but the arrival of this disaster also made ZF take care of itself. Now let the team come to look for survivors, also because of the instructions assigned from above, but there is not much manpower that can be deployed.
After a large military truck entered the community, it stopped in a square in the middle. More than 20 soldiers with guns got out of the car and watched the surroundings. A man in a green army coat stood on the roof of the car and took it. A microphone loudspeaker began to explain the situation, and then asked the survivors to pack their things and bring their cars to gather here.
From what the man said, they went into the city to look for survivors. Because there was not enough manpower in the army, they did not go to some dangerous places. The number of people who could be transferred was limited, and they could not escort all the survivors to a safe base. All they can do is to lead the way, if there is any danger on the road, they have to rely on everyone to work together and so on.
The words are very realistic and cruel, but they also explain the situation from the beginning.
The people in the community originally thought that the army came, and they were safe. Hearing these words is tantamount to a thunderbolt. Some people are silent, some are crying secretly with their faces covered, and some hooligans, strangers... But all these were quiet after the soldier fired his gun to the sky.
There are many survivors in the community. Except for the aboriginal people in the community, the others have escaped from the city and occupied those small uninhabited houses. Although everyone was a little dissatisfied with the unexpected situation, seeing those soldiers with guns, the last days had only begun, there was still a natural fear of soldiers in their hearts, and they quickly accepted the reality.
Soon, the large military truck exited the community and joined the large military trucks outside. The survivors in the community also got on the car separately and drove out together. There are wealthy people living in the community, and there are many people who can drive. Every household has a car. It is not that there are not enough cars, but there are some concerns about the lack of fuel. Some people who can't drive can be piggybacked by neighbors, but they need to use food as the fare. This requires a private agreement. If they dare to make trouble in public, the soldiers will come directly to mediate, and the consequences will not be too good.
Lin Baobao and others also drove the car left by the owner of the small house. It was a Mercedes-Benz. It would be a bit crowded if three men, two women, and a child were seated. Lin Baobao was also very straightforward and ran directly to Lou Ling.
Lou Ling is naturally welcome, and she high-five Lin Baobao and let Lin Baobao sit in the back. Lou Dian ignored it and acquiesced to Lou Ling's behavior. In some trivial matters, Lou Dian never interfered in Lou Ling's decision, which made Lou Ling feel very happy.

There were armed troops to maintain order, but no one made trouble. The convoy quickly left the community and went outside the city.
Those large military trucks drove at the front. If you see survivors on the road, ask them to drive along with them. If you don't have a car, check if there is any space in the car behind and stuff people in. Lou Ling and their car were stuffed with an old man and an eight-year-old girl, a pair of grandparents.
When the army entered the city, they had cleaned up zombies in some places, so there were not many zombies on the way out of the city. Those zombies that moved here were often shot at the head before they came in front of them.
After the cars left the city, they discovered that there were several large military vehicles outside the city. In addition to the soldiers who were escorting them, each car contained various materials they collected when they entered the city. The main purpose of the army entering the city today is concentrated in the south and west of the city. They came early in the morning. In addition to taking advantage of the cold weather, the zombies were slow to move, as soon as possible to collect more supplies, and also to take the survivors out by the way.
When they arrived, a few large military trucks came over, followed by many survivors' vehicles. For a while, the road was full of troubles. It can also be seen that ZF is already collecting as many survivors as possible.
While waiting for the convoy to start, Lou Ling went in the vice seat, then looked out, and quickly retracted her head, and asked: "Baobao, do you remember how far the safe base is from the city on the radio? "
Baby Lin was using the ability to condense water to put it in a mineral water bottle, which is considered a practiced ability, and replied: "It seems like a three hundred li road, choose a county that is easy to defend and difficult to attack as a safe base."
After the bottle was full, seeing the little girl held by the old man staring at the bottle in her hand without blinking, she handed the bottle over, "Little sister, do you want to drink, give it to you?"
The girl hesitated for a while, then looked at her grandfather again, and when she saw the old man nodding, she took it and thanked her quietly.
Although the child looked thin and weak, she was very clean and polite. It could be seen that after the end of the world, her grandfather had protected her extremely well and did not allow the harsh environment to ruin her character.
Lin Baobao is a hearty and enthusiastic person, very good at socializing, and can get along with anyone, and quickly collected the information of the grandpa and granddaughter. The grandfather and granddaughter were surnamed Mo, the grandfather was Mo Yaohui, and the granddaughter was Mo Yingying. The son and daughter-in-law of the grandfather of the last days passed away in a car accident. Only the little granddaughter was left. The old man had to live with his granddaughter. After the end of the world, they did not become zombies, and because the old man habitually collects food at home, they can survive this month safely.
However, although there is food, the food is not as good as the last days. The child is still hungry and thin, and because she has witnessed cruel things such as zombies cannibalism, people grabbing food, and fighting, it still leaves a deep shadow in her heart. Just like Chen Luosheng at the time, Mo Yingying has been close to her grandfather since getting in the car and refused to leave him, as if she was afraid that her grandfather would disappear when she was not paying attention.
Lou Ling also looked at the pair of grandparents from the back of the car mirror. Grandpa Mo looks more than sixty years old with gray hair. The granddaughter is a lovely loli, wearing a pink down jacket and fur hat. The grandparents and grandchildren have sat in the car obediently since they got in the car without disturbing people or asking questions. They also politely thanked them when they got in the car. I have to say that this kind of polite and current affairs person is extremely popular.
Lou Ling habitually took out a few coffee candies from her pocket--Lou Dian stuffed her in the morning. Recently Lou Dian suddenly likes to put various types of candies in her pocket, as long as she finishes eating or gives to others. There will be a few more in her pocket the next morning, giving her the feeling that Lou Dian treats her as a child. Lou Ling gave the little girl four candies, one for Bao Bao Lin and one for herself, and by the way, she peeled one and stuffed it into Lou Dian.
Lou Dian doesn't like sweets very much, but for those sweets stuffed by Lou Ling, he held it in his mouth without changing and waited for it to slowly melt.
"Ling Ling, I love you so much." Baby Lin smiled happily with coffee candy in her mouth. Before the end of the world, she didn't like hard candies, only soft candies. But now let's not talk about soft candies, you can eat good candies, don't be picky.
The little girl also ate very happily, first peeled a coffee candy and held it in front of her grandpa, then Grandpa Mo shook his head and ate it by herself.
Just when the sugar was finished, the convoy finally started, but the speed was not fast.
Lou Dian drove, he was very skillful in putting the car behind the convoy, separated from the car in front of a certain distance, so that the people in the car could see the environment on both sides of the road. The withered crops know that the arrival of the end times has made farmers too late to harvest the crops in the field. The mountains and forests in the distance are also gray, shrouded in fog, and you can't see clearly.
After leaving the city, if they see a gas station, the soldiers will get of the car directly, go to clean up the zombies in the gas station, and then collect all the fuel in the gas station. If those cars don't have gas, they can only go directly to the army to ask for it. Fortunately, the army gives, it's just a limited amount. Now at the end of the world, many things have become disposable consumables. Many people are aware of the military's practices, so not many people are making trouble for this.
Because there are too many convoys, it is impossible to reach the safe base in one day, so in the evening, the convoy came to a village.
Before entering the city, the army had walked this road and had already cleaned up the zombies in the village.
In the village there are about a thousand households in the house, but this time there are 20,000 survivors, and they can live in it.
Everyone is crowded.
When the army stopped, the convoys in front also stopped, and some even advanced to the village very alertly to occupy the house next to the army as a resting place. It's cold now, and everyone doesn't want to spend the night outside. Even in the car, it's not safe. It's better to have a house, and it's safer to be closer to these soldiers.
Lou Dian drove the car slowly from behind, and then stopped in a clearing at the entrance of the village.
Xi Mufeng and the others had already got off the car and waited for them. Seeing them sluggishly, and all the well-located houses in the village had been robbed, they couldn't help but feel a little anxious. However, when they saw Lou Dian opening the door and getting out of the car in no rush, and then walking with Lou Ling's hand, they were not in a rush for some reason.
"Mr. Lou, we went too late and the house is almost occupied." Xi Mufeng said.
Lou Dian glanced at him, pointed to the house at the entrance of the village, and said, "Isn't there an empty house?"
Everyone looked at the house, and couldn't help but twitch. It was at the entrance of the village. There was a house 500 meters away. It was a lonely house. It looked rather pitiful, and it was the easiest to become a target, so none of the survivors had any. I want to choose it, even if it looks beautiful villa.
However, seeing that Lou Ling had already been pulled by Lou Dian, Lin Baobao and the pair of grandparents followed along, so Xi Mufeng and others naturally didn't have any comments. Although I think Lou Dian is not easy, I have never seen Lou Dian make a move, so sometimes he will inevitably hesitate in his choice.
