Chapter 5 Living People (")

At this moment, next to the road to Xie Tian left is a residential community called International City. The environment in the community is naturally much more complex than the straight streets. Compared with zombies without IQ, the more complex the environment is, the more beneficial it is to you. Moreover, the community is so big that if you can be lucky enough to encounter a unit door that has not been closed, you can use it to avoid it.

Xie Tian suddenly turned around and rushed to the community gate. The zombie who was running towards him was a little slower, and then followed him after him. Although Xie Tian had good physical strength in the past, it was difficult for him to run past zombies. But now, his physical fitness is obviously much better than before. He ran very fast and his physical strength was completely keeping up. He even breathed in an orderly and even symmetrical manner.

After rushing into the International City, Xie Tian hurriedly turned around after passing the first row of buildings. While running, he observed the situation of the unit door of the residential building. The zombies are now about a hundred meters behind him. If an unlocked unit door can be found, he will have enough time to rush in and block the zombies outside the door. Of course, the premise is that the door lock of the unit door must be used normally. Even if it cannot, he can rely on the narrow stairs to defend himself to avoid head-on conflicts with a large number of zombies. Moreover, if you shoot in the corridor, it is much safer than shooting on the street!

But Xie Tian was a little lucky. After passing two buildings in a row, only one unit door was open. Unfortunately, the noise caused by Xie Tian being chased by the zombies attracted the two zombies in the unit door. As long as the zombies locked the living person, they would follow behind and chase him endlessly. Xie Tian had no chance to go back, and could only be chased by more than ten zombies, running with all their might in the originally small community.

Almost reached the dead corner of the community, Xie Tian’s luck was not ordinary. He passed several buildings along the way but couldn’t find a suitable place to hide. Seeing that there was no way ahead, Xie Tian could only turn around with a knife to face the zombies getting closer and closer. While retreating carefully, he thought about how to deal with these more than ten zombies and a pistol on his waist, which gave him some capital. In any case, he had to fight to the death!

At this moment, Xie Tian just stepped back to a closed unit door and was about to take out his gun to fight back. At this moment, the closed iron door was suddenly pushed open, and a figure appeared in the aisle inside the door. Xie Tian reflexed that he thought it was a zombie. He was about to slash over the knife when a woman's voice came: "Come in!"

Zombies cannot speak. Xie Tian understood this very well. When he heard the other party speak, Xie Tian knew that the other party was definitely not a zombie. He rushed in immediately. Xie Tian flashed and passed by the woman. The woman hurriedly closed the unit door and locked the door lock from inside.

The zombies chasing behind him arrived in the next second, slapped the unit door frantically, trying to break through the obstacles, and rushed in to have a full meal.

However, even if the physical strength of zombies is stronger than that of ordinary people, for the steel welding doors, their constant slapping is nothing but irrelevant and does not have any substantial effect.

Xie Tian glanced at the woman in front of him. This was the only living person he had seen along the way, but he looked extremely sloppy and downcast. She was wearing a dirty dress that had lost her original color. She was about 168 cm tall, her body was very weak, her face was covered with dust, and she could not even see her appearance clearly. Her messy long hair exuded a rotten and sour smell, but Xie Tian’s own smell was not nice, so she didn’t care.

Surviving in the end of the world made Xie Tian unable to help but feel a sense of mutual appreciation for her. Xie Tian looked at her and said, "Let's go in quickly, otherwise these zombies will not calm down. If they attract more zombies to block the door, it will be troublesome."

The girl nodded and followed Xie Tian and walked into the stairwell. Xie Tian then found that there were two houses on each floor of the unit here, on both sides of the elevator. However, there was no electricity supply in the entire Yangcheng. Xie Tian just took a look and climbed up the stairs, came to the corner of the stairs between the first and second floors, and sat down against the wall.

The girl was a little slow. She grabbed the railing with both hands. Every time she stepped on a step, it seemed like she had to spend a lot of effort. Xie Tian hurriedly got up and walked down, and helped the girl's arm without saying a word and pulled her up.

"Are you the only one here?" Xie Tiancai asked, "The two of them were standing against the wall and sitting opposite each other.

"Yeah." The girl nodded gently and said, "I have been hiding here for three days. There are 22 floors in this building. I have checked them all. Every house has a door closed and there are no zombies, so it is safer here."

The girl's voice sounded very nice and seemed familiar, but Xie Tian couldn't remember it for a moment. When he heard the girl say this, he let go of most of his heart and said with great gratitude: "Thanks to you just now. If you hadn't opened the door in time, I would probably be in danger."

The girl smiled slightly and said, "I originally planned to go out, but I didn't expect you to suddenly appear, so I didn't think too much at that time, so I opened the door so that you could come in quickly."

Xie Tian was a little puzzled and asked, "Isn't this place quite safe? Isn't it more dangerous if you are a girl, if you go out rashly?"

The girl was silent for a moment and said in an extremely helpless tone: "I have been hiding here for three days, and I haven't eaten anything for two days. I'm afraid that if I continue to waste this, I will starve to death here, so I want to give it a try in the end."

When Xie Tian heard this, he took off the mountaineering bag behind him without hesitation. After whispering for a long time, he handed over a can of 500 grams of beef and a bottle of unopened vitamin drink and said, "You can eat something first."

The girl stared at Xie Tian with wide eyes and asked in shock: "Are you going to give me these food and water?"

"Yes." Xie Tian nodded and said, "Since you have eaten it, of course it's for you."

"But..." The girl wanted to say something, but swallowed the words to her mouth, staring at the can in Xie Tian's hand without blinking, unable to say a word.

Xie Tian didn't know what she was worried about, so he put the food and water on the ground and pushed it over, saying, "If you hadn't opened the door at a critical moment just now, I would have been in danger. These foods were considered to be rewarded for you. Don't worry, I had no other intention."

The girl looked at Xie Tian gratefully and said, "Thank you! From the outbreak of loss to the present, no one has ever given food to others without asking for anything in return, and we have never known each other..."

Xie Tian smiled miserably and said, "There are fewer and fewer living people who can see it. It is fate. I just keep it for a little food. I can live for one more day." As he said, looking at the girl, he said sincerely: "You haven't eaten anything for so long. Let's eat this bottle of canned food first. If it's not enough, I still have it here."

The girl's big eyes suddenly covered with a layer of mist. Then, she nodded gently, held the can in her hand silently, grabbed the pull ring with her fingers and tried hard to open it, but she tried it twice without success, which showed how weak she was.

Xie Tian walked over and squatted in front of her, took the canned food, and lifted the entire metal top cover with great force, and the aroma of beef suddenly dispersed.

"Here, eat it." Xie Tian handed the can to her again. The girl took the can. The strong sense of hunger and the fragrance emitted by beef made her reach out without thinking, trying to pinch out the beef slices in the can directly with her hands, but when she looked up at Xie Tian, ​​she stopped moving again. After hesitating for a long time, she finally pulled her hand back.

Xie Tian could see that even under such strong hunger, the other party still had not lost the reserve that a girl should have. Eating in front of a man in disregarding her image was probably unacceptable for many girls, so he spoke to her and said, "You eat first, I'll go up and see if you can find a way to open the door of which family, so you can settle down for the time being."

"Don't!" the girl blurted out: "You don't know what's going on in the house. What if the family inside turns into zombies!"

Xie Tian smiled slightly, picked up the machete, held it in his hand, and said, "I'm not afraid, Besides, it's nothing even if there are zombies. The zombie virus has been outbreaking for more than a month, and those zombies have been locked in the room. From mutation to now, they can't eat anything, and their attack power will not be too strong." After saying that, Xie Tian instructed again: "You haven't eaten for a long time, so don't eat too fast, too much, it's best to eat slowly in several times."

The girl nodded and told softly: "Then be careful."

The girl had said before that she had checked all these 22 floors. The doors of each household were closed, and Xie Tian did not unlock them. The quality of the security doors now are so good, it is unlikely that they could force themselves to enter. However, what Xie Tian thought of at this time was his mother. Since she could remember, although her family had moved several times, her mother had a habit of keeping it alive, that is, she always liked to hide a key in a hidden place at the door in case of emergencies. Xie Tian didn't know if Yangcheng people also had this habit, but it was still worth trying.

Finally, Xie Tian took a long time to find the key to the security door at the bottom of the locker in front of the Donghu door on the 16th floor.

Before entering the door, Xie Tian took out the pistol at his waist, held it tightly with his right hand, and gently inserted the key into the keyhole with his left hand, and carefully twisted the key to open the door. As soon as the door was opened, Xie Tian hurriedly took two steps back and raised his gun to aim it at the door, fearing that the zombies would suddenly rush out of the door.

However, after waiting patiently for more than a minute, there was still no movement in the door. Xie Tian kicked the metal security door, making a few loud noises, and waited for a while. If there were zombies in the room, they would have rushed out desperately when they heard the movement. After waiting for so long, there was no movement. I guess the house should be clean.
