Chapter 1
Chapter 1
September is not yet the beginning of autumn, and the sky is preparing to become cooler.In mid-air, the dense branches and leaves are covered with layers, and the leaked spots of light streak across the roofs of the three camouflage off-road vehicles driving on the ground one by one.
As the wheels rolled over the uneven ground, the sound of the body shaking and the sound of the engine together broke the silence of the woods.The silence was chilling, chilling the woods before fall, and the noise of the SUVs couldn't warm it up.
It's nice to drive with the windows open in this weather.The driver's window of the off-road vehicle sandwiched in the middle stretched out an arm and waved, and the man who was driving stuck his head out and shouted: "Captain! Let's chat!"
An arm was draped over the window of the driver's seat of the previous car, and a deep female voice came out: "He Kate, shut up and drive well."
The man named He Kaitai continued to raise his head and shouted: "This road has been cleared, even if some zombies with no eyes come in, what are we so afraid of?"
The captain said unhappily: "If you invite zombies, jump out of the car for me!"
He Kaitai didn't dare to speak back anymore, and retracted his head to his partner on the co-pilot, "Is the captain here to be your aunt? It's more fierce than usual."
"You deserve to be scolded. This is the first time for our squadron to go to the Montenegro base. If something goes wrong with such an important mission, you can't afford to pay for the vaccines in the car." The partner gloated. , the captain is under a lot of pressure now, and you are still making trouble."
He Kate: "I know she's under a lot of pressure, so I just want to help her relieve the pressure."
Partner: "If you drive well, it will help her relieve stress. I will panic when I take your car."
He Kate made fun of herself and kept her mouth shut.
The people in the car ahead were talking about him too.Feng Yuxia, who is sitting in the co-driver, is in her 40s. Unfortunately, in an era of turmoil and population decline, she has entered a stage of life where she loves to protect the media and stretch her body. There is no successful case so far.She said to Captain Ruofei: "Kate He Kate is a little frivolous, but he knows the priorities at critical times. Don't be too strict with him."
Du Ruofei: "If you don't be strict with him, he will kick his nose in the face."
Feng Yuxia smiled and said, "You always use the captain's status to suppress him, can he be convinced? Whenever he wants to get close to you, you say that he is not big or small. The more you suppress him, the more he will rebound."
Du Ruofei didn't take it seriously: "I'm older than him and have a higher position than him. Besides, I like women. Do you think he looks like a woman? What's his name? He knows this, why does he keep harassing me? I think he is itchy and needs to be beaten."
Feng Yuxia was helpless: "What time is it still picking men and women?"
Du Ruofei: "I'm already 31, and I've got my shape. You can persuade He Kaitai to let him find a man. There is still some hope. Hey? Maybe he likes me because I'm tall and looks like a man! Because of the prejudice against homosexuality in his heart He refuses to admit it, so it’s useless to waste effort on me, so you tell him that homophobia is a closet.”
The two male players in the back seat snickered.
Feng Yuxia was thoughtful.
After a while, Feng Yuxia changed the subject and asked, "The Sixth Squadron was the one who delivered vaccines to Montenegro last time. Have you asked them for news?"
Speaking of the mission of this trip, Du Ruofei nodded, and his expression became serious: "Now the No.17 Army is in charge of the Montenegro base. Their troops have a tough style and strict rules. The leader of the No. [-] Squadron said that he only stayed on the periphery when he got there. Stay here, didn't enter the residential area. But he estimated that the population there could be two or three times larger than ours."
A male team member in the back seat exclaimed: "Good guy, there are so many people! It is indeed the No.17 Army, and it would have been messed up if it was replaced by other units. I think our Zhongci base is the current scale."
Another male team member said: "I hear you mean that the armed police detachment of our Zhongci base is not strong enough? Look at these places we pass by, and we can't even see human hair. Please be satisfied!"
Feng Yuxia also said: "To put it this way, the first ten squadrons of the armed police detachment are all regular troops, and the eleventh and twelve squadrons were recruited after the virus broke out. Is our twelve squadrons worse than the previous ones?"
The first male player even said "not bad not bad"!
Du Ruofei smiled: "We just need to deliver the vaccine safely, follow the rules, and go back on time."
The people in the car responded one after another, stopped chatting, and watched the situation outside the car while blowing comfortably. Looking at the lush woods, they felt a rare bit of comfort.
More than two years ago, the corpse virus broke out across the country, causing heavy casualties everywhere.The chaotic and turbulent scene at the beginning of the virus outbreak has become the darkest memory in the hearts of those who survived.Many cities were reduced to gathering places for zombies, and survivors were forced to flee until they found a place of safety.These places gradually expand in size and stabilize in shape, and are called bases.
The Zhongci Base was originally Zhongci City, which has the largest infectious disease research institute in the country.After the outbreak of the virus, the epidemic in Zhongci City was brought under control in time, and the first batch of vaccines were successfully produced, giving the survivors whose homes were broken saw the dawn of hope.The interior is calm, and Zhongci City accepts survivors who escaped from other places, while cleaning and expanding outwards, gradually becoming the current Zhongci base, with an area equal to about two Zhongci cities.
At the same time, the China Citation Base did not give up seeking contact with the outside world.Human beings live in groups, and a completely closed environment will cause people to fall into anxiety, which is not a long-term solution.Moreover, not only do people's emotions need to be appeased by external news, the development of a region is also inseparable from transactions, and it is impossible to cling to a base and sit and eat.
After several explorations, the Zhongci base has established stable contact with the three bases of Heishan, Wenyan, and Shuiming. Among them, the closest, largest and most stable base to the Zhongci base is the Heishan base.
The Montenegro base has a vast area, and its scope includes five cities connected by the foot of the mountain. It is backed by Montenegro, hence the name.The Black Mountain base has fertile land and developed agriculture, and the surplus crops can be exchanged with other bases.This time, after the [-]th Squadron delivered the vaccine, they had to pack a cart of kimchi back.
Several sections of the expressway between Zhongci and Heishan Base are completely blocked, and they can only be driven on the ground, so the terrain along the way is changeable.Starting from Zhongci, the first is the city road, then the highway and then down, and then take the village road, and continue to approach Montenegro, and there is a large area of wild woods and wasteland.
The two bases jointly cleared the passage area of this route, and each assigned soldiers to garrison at important checkpoints.As long as it is not unlucky to run into a group of moving zombies, a team of about ten people can pass safely with a high probability.
Now Du Ruofei and his party are on the wild forest road.Including Du Ruofei himself, the [-]th Squadron had a total of ten people and three vehicles.Departure at [-] o'clock in the morning, estimated to arrive at the Montenegro base at noon, and returned to Zhongci after a two-hour rest, just in time to arrive before dark.
Although Du Ruofei was a little nervous, he didn't think there would be any accidents in this mission.Calculating the distance, they have already traveled more than half, and in about two hours, they will see the "impregnable" Black Mountain base that the Sixth Squadron said.To be honest, Du Ruofei was quite curious.
Du Ruofei was a former member of the national women's epee team when the virus broke out.The career lifespan of a fencer is relatively not too short. Du Ruofei was elected to the national team at the age of 17 and retired at the age of 27. The year before his retirement, he also won the runner-up in the women's individual epee of the National Games.Her physical condition is very superior, and 27 years old is definitely not the limit. If she did not choose to retire at that time, it would not be a problem to earn a few more trophies in the future.
However, if she hadn't retired then, it's hard to say where she is now.
After retiring, Du Ruofei did not look for another job. He took the prize money from past competitions to travel around by car and climb mountains. He lived a free life for two years.When the virus broke out, she was 29 years old and was climbing Baisu Mountain. The scenic spot adopts "barrier-free design" to facilitate people with disabilities to visit.
She was accompanied by her 19-year-old younger sister who had just graduated from high school.The sister is now missing.
Du Ruofei drove the car wholeheartedly, while Feng Yuxia, the co-pilot, looked out the window.Across the woods, the increasingly clear sound of water flow attracted their attention. The two turned their heads to look obliquely ahead, and could vaguely see the light reflected when the river flowed.
It is a tributary of the Jian River.The Jianhe River is more than 400 kilometers long. This tributary travels all the way from afar and plunges into this wild forest.Further on, the tributary got closer, and the trees blocking the view gradually thinned out, and finally the river clearly appeared in the view.You don't have to cross this tributary to get to Montenegro from Zhongzhi, but just pass by it.Tens of meters ahead, the river turned a bend, and then changed direction and extended away further.
Both Du Ruofei and Feng Yuxia saw that there seemed to be a female corpse lying on the bank near the bend of the tributary—in this wilderness, the possibility of a living person was very small.
Neither of them spoke.Originally, Du Ruofei didn't intend to cause trouble, but she kept looking there involuntarily. She hesitated in her heart, but she stretched out her arms and gestured to the vehicles behind to slow them down.After driving another distance, Du Ruofei stopped, opened the door and jumped down.
He Kaitai stretched out his head and asked, "Captain, what are you doing?"
"Stay where you are!" Du Ruofei ordered, approaching the river bank with a multi-purpose bayonet in his hand.The green grass under his feet was crawling, and when he stepped on it, he only made a very soft sound.
The people on the ground were lying face down by the river, their whole bodies were soaked, half of their bodies were still submerged in the river water, they were wearing black T-shirts and camouflage trousers, their long hair was tied up in bunches, as if they had floated here along the river. The river turns and is washed to the shore.Du Ruofei called out twice, then kicked her with his toes, and seeing that she didn't respond at all, he turned her over carefully and quickly.
The girl's pale cheeks rubbed against the wet mud of the river bank, a little dirty, but it didn't prevent Du Ruofei from seeing her face clearly.Like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, Du Ruofei's mind went blank, staring blankly at this face that had appeared in dreams countless times, he even forgot to breathe.
