Chapter 12: Weak corpse hunter
The morning in the wasteland is chilly, and people wearing thin clothes will shiver from time to time. But this chill only exists when the sun has not risen. When the sun rises, the chill is dispelled, and with just a little sunshine, the sand on the wasteland will become hot, and the temperature will slowly rise, eventually reaching a point where people are sweating profusely.
Zhou Yuanqiang, who did not sleep well all night, got up as soon as it was light, went downstairs to buy a breakfast, ate it hurriedly, and with the principle that the early bird catches the worm, he closed the doors and windows tightly, drew the curtains, and then directly started the transmission, teleporting himself to the pile of grass where he returned to the modern world yesterday.
At seven o'clock, in the countryside, hardworking people have already worked for nearly two hours. But in the city, it is the time when most office workers just get up.
The morning sun of the end of the world has risen a little from the endless horizon, and the red light sprinkled on the earth, covering the sand of the wasteland with a layer of gold. Zhou Yuanqiang, who was wearing thin clothes and carrying a small backpack, just appeared in the bushes and immediately felt cold all over. The unique coldness in the wilderness and the light mist on the bushes were far beyond what Zhou Yuanqiang, who had seen the scorching heat of the wilderness, could expect.
Coming out of the bushes, a few shadows swayed in the distance. They should be unconscious zombies that wandered in the wilderness all day long.
It was quiet all around. Zhou Yuanqiang took out the Type 95 from the storage space with some fear and put it in his hand. Zhou Yuanqiang knew how to use guns, but this accuracy was completely that of a rookie. At this time, the Type 95 was more of a courage booster.
"This is not safe. If I get caught by zombies and get infected with the virus, I'm done." Zhou Yuanqiang looked around. With thin clothes and the slight chill, it would be a lie to say he wasn't afraid. "I don't know if there are bulletproof vests in this desert settlement. I still feel uneasy without them!"
After identifying the direction of the desert settlement, Zhou Yuanqiang walked carefully on the sand, fearing that he would alarm the scattered zombies not far away.
After walking for only two or three minutes, there was a faint sound in front of him. Zhou Yuanqiang listened and it didn't sound like the sound of zombies, but more like the roar of humans. "Early in the morning, are you going to die early?" Zhou Yuanqiang frowned. If you shout and yell like this, won't you attract piles of zombies to besiege you?
The direction of the sound happened to be the direction of the desert settlement. Zhou Yuanqiang hesitated for a moment, but curiosity still overcame his fear of zombies in his heart, and he quietly approached.
In front of a few bare trees, two teenagers of seventeen or eighteen years old were constantly teasing the seven zombies in front of them. They were agile, holding a thin branch in their hands, and from time to time they used their running to whip the zombies with the branch. The loud roars came from the hands of these two teenagers to increase the attraction to the zombies.
Zhou Yuanqiang carefully lay in a patch of grass, and after making sure that there were no zombies around, he watched the performance of the two teenagers with interest.
"Da Li, you should be faster, don't let them touch you." The older teenager whipped a zombie's head with a branch, and then retreated at an extremely sensitive speed, pulling the distance between him and the zombies. Under his command, the teenager called Da Li nodded and said, "Brother, there are more zombies. You lead a few away, I will take care of a few first, and you pull them back."
The older teenager nodded and said, "Okay, Da Li, be careful. If you can't take care of them, run away. We have many opportunities." As he said that, the branch in his hand cleverly hit the zombie's forehead. Seeing his skillful movements, the branches snapped a few times, and four of the seven zombies were already "obediently" chasing him. The small team of seven zombies immediately split into two.
Dali grinned and roared at the remaining three zombies a few times, and began to rhythmically attract the zombies to follow him with branches.
The two brothers gave Zhou Yuanqiang the feeling that it was like playing a game, using the principle that their speed was a little faster than the monsters to lead the monsters to run all over the sky. But Zhou Yuanqiang didn't understand what the other party was doing by attracting these seven zombies everywhere, was it a childish play? But... this was playing with his own life.
After careful observation, the two brothers were very thin. They had not been nourished for a long time, and they were always hungry. It was not an exaggeration to describe them as skin and bones.
While Zhou Yuanqiang was confused, Dali had already led the zombies to a place with obvious artificial traces. He no longer paid attention to the zombies, but sprinted, quickly jumped over the sand with artificial traces, turned around, and shouted loudly. The three zombies following Dali were just ordinary level 1 zombies. They didn't doubt anything and rushed up without hesitation.
After they stepped on the artificial sand, they disappeared from the ground in the blink of an eye of Zhou Yuanqiang. A deep pit of two or three meters appeared on the sand just now. A cloud of sand and dust rushed up to the sky, and the top of the zombies' heads could be seen faintly.
"This... trap?" Zhou Yuanqiang was surprised. He didn't expect that the two brothers would use this trap to hunt zombies without weapons.
Seeing that the three zombies had fallen into the trap, Dali did not show any excitement, but calmly took out a dagger from his waist, picked up a long stick that had been prepared long ago, and installed the dagger on it, turning it into a long spear. Then he approached the trap and stabbed the zombies struggling to climb out of the trap into their heads.
In just a few minutes, the three zombies that were just so vicious were immediately killed by the boy using this primitive method.
After confirming that the three zombies were dead, Dali carefully dragged the three zombies out of the trap with a wooden hook, took out the dagger, took out a plastic bag from his pocket, wrapped his hands, and began to dig in the zombies' heads. Soon, he took out three white crystals familiarly and wrapped them in a paper bag.
After dealing with the three zombies, Dali sent a signal to his brother, and his brother received the signal and attracted the four zombies again.
The brothers were obviously well prepared. They prepared more than one trap, and dug another one not far away. The four zombies could not have wisdom. Faced with this trap that was not considered a trap, they still rushed over stupidly and fell into the trap in the end, becoming the brothers' victory.
After watching the brothers' series of performances, Zhou Yuanqiang couldn't help but mutter: "I really misjudged them. I didn't expect that they were actually corpse hunters."
The brothers, who had been cautious in facing zombies for a long time, had already trained their ears to listen to everything. Zhou Yuanqiang's subtle muttering did not escape their ears. After hearing Zhou Yuanqiang's muttering, the brothers immediately put away the crystal, held the dagger, stared at Zhou Yuanqiang's hiding place and shouted: "Who is it?"
