Chapter 28: Escape from Ascension
A group of young men rushed out of the city gate like a madman. Relying on their youthful strength and the timely blocking of guns by other targets, they actually threw away the zombies behind them.
Just leaving the city gate was obviously not enough to make them feel safe, so they continued to run wildly.
In the night, they saw a large group of people walking from the outskirts of the city to the county town.
A man in the lead hid in the rag, and his appearance was even more difficult to see in the night, but he felt that he seemed to have some legs and feet inconvenient.
"Don't go over, there's a zombie inside, run!" The man running in front called them loudly, "Run!"
He just wanted to remind him that if he believed it or not, he would ignore his business.
The man in the lead lowered his head, raised his hand, and instantly rushed out dozens of black shadows from behind him.
After seeing so many zombies just now, when they saw these things that were used together, the people's heads buzzed... Even if they can't see their appearance clearly now, they would definitely be the kind of thing if they don't have to think about these extremely fast things!
At this moment, dozens of zombies were chased out of the city gate, and the two teams of zombies suddenly formed a double-team on the group of about 100 people, attacked the people from front to back, and rushed into the crowd.
There was a rush of blood everywhere, and there were whine everywhere.
The man calmly walked into the gate of Hejin County from the scenes of biting, without looking sideways.
Soon, the zombie team behind him had reached more than 200, and the spread of the virus was too fast.
After entering the city gate, the first thing he did was to close the city gate!
Then, the man led a team of zombies to conduct a carpet sweep of Hejin County.
This is a zombie with an IQ. In front of him, those friends who like to hide and seek, and those naughty friends who like to climb high suddenly realized something was wrong!
"Oh!" As the man roared all his life, several zombies rushed into a house that had been looted, and a scream came from it soon.
Under his command, several zombies climbed up the eaves on their companions' bodies, quickly caught the people lying on high places, and quickly pounced on them. From the edge of the eaves, a large stream of blood dripped down the grooves and formed a line.
...
Zhang Ye saw the different zombie from afar and was so scared that he almost rolled down from the roof of the second floor.
Zhang Ye and a few people quickly jumped off the high place and ran to Chu Mo, "Master Chu, they began to clean every house, and even those hiding in the rice jar and the roof could not escape death!"
"I saw that there was a living dead man who was different from the others. He seemed to have someone's thinking that could command other living dead man."
The magistrate Chu was still trembling all over. He looked at Zhang Ye in horror, "Zhang, Captain Zhang, are we dead? What should we do now? What should we do?"
Zhang Ye is not as calm as the magistrate of Chu County. He only relies on his good skills to appear a little calmer. However, he did not expect these living dead people to be so powerful, with extremely fast speed and surprisingly large power, and he would not die even if he was stabbed a few times. Now the whole city is full of living dead people. No matter how high his martial arts are, there is no possibility of fighting out.
Lin Zhubo was already crying and couldn't help but feel a dozen heads leaning against the side. At this time, they were no different from the thirty or forty people. They were all in business and sat on the ground blankly.
Zhang Ye sat down dejectedly and shook his head weakly, "I can't do anything either."
These people have actually started sitting here and waiting to die!
Suddenly, a heart-wrenching scream came not far away, like a heavy punch hitting everyone's nerves.
"No, no, I don't want to die like this, you guys kill me first!"
"What's the use of killing you? You will become that way in the end!"
"Then, what should I do? I can't even die! No, if you kill me, I don't want to be bitten to death. If you don't do anything, I will do it myself."
Someone has begun to collapse.
At this moment, the magistrate of County Chu suddenly jumped up.
"Don't make a noise!"
Here, his desire to survive is the strongest, because he is the county magistrate, he still has official positions, and he has wealth and glory. He is different from these paupers who have nothing, and his life is even more valuable!
At least that's what he thought.
"Don't let everyone go empty-handed. You constables will find some weapons for these people, hurry up!"
Everyone looked at the magistrate Chu in surprise. He was the one who shook the most fiercely just now, but now he suddenly felt like he had changed, and he was full of energy.
The performance of the Chu County Magistrate feels like a glimmer of hope. Does the Chu County Magistrate have a way?
If there is hope for life, who is willing to die? Several constables quickly took the people to the warehouse to get weapons.
Those who were able to rush into the county government from such a dangerous environment before actually experienced the most severe survival of the fittest. Whether it was the constable or the people, they were all the best, young and strong, and agile.
Soon, the group of people took out weapons from the warehouse, each equipped with a big knife and a long-handled horse lance. These two weapons are also the most common, and the warehouse is equipped with the most.
The big sword is used for melee combat. Although the horse spear is a battlefield weapon, it becomes an excellent weapon to distance the distance at this time.
Captain Zhang handed two knives to the magistrate of Chu County and Lin Zhubo.
"Sir, are you going to let us guard the county government?"
Chu Mo shook his head, "What a fool to guard it. The county government is so big and we have so many people, how can we guard it."
"Everyone follows me, Zhang Ye, follow me closely."
After saying that, Chu Mo led the fifty people to the county yamen courtyard quickly.
When Chu Mo first took office, he had no mansion in the county, so he lived in the county yamen for quite some time, but later he moved out when he got rich.
It can be said that during the time he lived in the inner courtyard, he was the time when he accumulated wealth. He did a lot of things secretly. At that time, he was not as old as he is now. He was worried about the news of the matter all day, so he dug a tunnel in his dormitory...
It is not unreasonable to live for a thousand years, as people always have a sense of danger.
As a result, this secret passage became their last hope now!
Chu Mo and Zhang Ye lifted the wooden bed, and under the wooden bed, a secret passage entrance suddenly appeared.
"Correspondents walked in front, behind the people's palace, the last person must seal the entrance! Whether you can survive is here to kill them. Please be careful!"
The Living Dead has arrived near the county government office. Time is tight now, and everyone knows the importance of this operation. Zhang Ye and the others dare not delay and quickly jump into the dark secret passage. Chu Mo and Lin Jian walked in the middle, behind the people's palace.
The last person who entered the cave carefully covered the bed board and pushed hard again. He found that the mechanism had been buckled, so he kept up with something wrong.
There were no lights in the secret passage, and the secret passage was narrow and everyone was squatting forward.
"Oh, whose spear hit me!"
"It's not me, it's the back."
"Shh! Do you want to die? Don't make a noise!"
"Sir, how long is this secret passage and where is it leading to."
"The riverside in the south of the county town, after crossing the river, it will be Dahua County County. After walking a few miles away, they found that we couldn't even run away."
Chu Mo was thoughtful and actually dug the secret passage directly to the riverside. If he was chased, he could escape along the Yarlung Zangbo River!
...
Li Zheng has been very busy these days, but he is in an unexpectedly good mood.
With the efforts of the people and the officers and soldiers, all the seeds of Ganqing No. 5 were sown. He has checked the sowing situation in the past few days. It seems that everyone has implemented several key points he explained.
There is sufficient fertilizer in front and appropriate seed spacing... Dahua County is located on the plateau, with the Yarlung Zangbo River not far away. Rizhao and water sources are sufficient. As long as you avoid pests and diseases, you can wait for a bumper harvest in autumn.
8,000 acres, 5 stones of barley are harvested per acre, which is 40,000 stones! In addition, the barley that many people sow themselves has at least greatly alleviated the famine.
When the people see that the harvest is so good, they believe that when sowing seeds in winter, Ganqing No. 5 can be promoted throughout the county. By then, Dahua County will completely get rid of the famine.
Food is the lifeblood of troubled times. With food, Dahua County will attract more people to settle down. Two years later, when the world is in chaos, he will have his own capital!
Of course, there is still a very important achievement now, that is, the people's hearts.
On the one hand, the granary guards were grateful to Li Zheng and were in a state of "support". Although Li Zheng deceived them, he did not really want to harm them.
Did the so-called "ancient kings" win over people's hearts must be devoted to their efforts? Obviously not, just achieve the goal!
What's more, in the long run, Li Zheng did this to save the world.
In short, their contributions are tangible.
On the other hand, Li Zheng's approval rating has continued to rise in recent days. People in remote areas have heard that such a unique and caring good official from the county has come to the county. They have moved closer to the county.
Many people with grievances even plucked up the courage to go to the county government to beat drums and make grievances.
The reason why people can come to the county government to file a complaint shows that the people trust Li Zheng.
Unfortunately, Li Zheng is not good at determining cases, so he gave these things to Chu Zhi.
At present, Li Zheng's main energy is to inspect the farmland. A bumper harvest of barley is the basis of all his next plan, and there must be no mistakes in this matter.
After inspecting a farmland near the county town, Li Zhenggang returned to the county government office and Chu Zhi came to find him.
Chu Zhi walked to Li Zheng in two steps, "Sir, Hejin County Magistrate Chu Mo asked for a meeting outside the city gate."
Li Zheng frowned slightly.
Hejin County? It seems to be a small county town northwest of Dahua County, and it belongs to the same as Dahua County.
What does it mean? The county magistrate came in person. Is he going to visit him?
Li Zheng was a little nervous. After all, he was a county magistrate, and he would be exposed when he met people in the officialdom... But he couldn't see him. The county magistrate came to him in person, so he couldn't keep him out.
"Why are you outside the city? Just come in directly." Li Zheng asked.
Chu Zhi organized the speech, "Sir, this magistrate of Chu is a little... a little strange. He has blood on his body and is covered in mud. He is so nervous. The more than 50 people he brought with him are all like this. Everyone has weapons on his hands and refuses to disarm. I wonder if he has been robbed."
He ran to other people's territory, with dirt and blood stains, and was carrying weapons. Even if he was the county magistrate, the guards would definitely not let him in.
There are peasant troops everywhere now, what if this guy comes to seize the city?
Li Zheng frowned, what was his neighbor going to do?
Chapter completed!
