Chapter 44 Black Forest

Author: Cucumber mixed with lettuce

"It's okay, let Fang Zhijiu go back." Lin Kai said, "He will go and check the situation in the shelter first. If possible, we will all move to the shelter then."

I looked at Jia Yang and then looked at Tian Li.

If we all moved to a shelter, would there be enough supplies there?

Dad broke the calm and asked: "Can you bring a mobile phone there? So that Xiaoqi's mother can contact us."

"OK."

"Then this meal is a farewell meal for you!" Dad picked up the bowl, and we all picked up the bowls in our hands.

After dinner, Fang Zhijiu packed up his things. In fact, he didn't have much. He changed out of Lin Kai's clothes, put on his own clothes, loaded his gun, and was ready to set off.

The car he and Tian Li drove here was low on oil. Dad and Jia Yang shared some of the oil in our car with him. Before the zombies broke out, we pumped some more oil.

Fang Zhijiu had a lot of words with Lin Kai before leaving. After talking for a long time, he saw that Lin Kai kept rubbing his shoes on the ground.

I walked over with Tian Li and asked Lin Kai what Fang Zhijiu had told him.

"Oh, tell me not to have a heat stroke and drink more water, just like my mother." Lin Kai felt impatient with Fang Zhijiu's explanation.

Tian Li was holding her sleeve tightly beside her. She wanted to say something to Fang Zhijiu, but I saw that she wanted to say something but couldn't.

Fang Zhijiu said: "Captain Fang, Lizi seems to have something to say."

Fang Zhijiu turned to Tian Li and said, "What's wrong?"

"I...I want to say," Tian Li pulled my sleeves, looking very nervous, "Be careful!" She finally said it.

"Yes, I will." After Fang Zhijiu finished speaking, he waved to his father and Jia Yang, "Uncle Xue, Jia Yang, I'm leaving."

Dad and Jia Yang responded, and Fang Zhijiu drove away without any nostalgia.

Tian Li stared blankly at Fang Zhijiu's car, only to see that his car became smaller and smaller, and disappeared after turning the corner.

I patted Tian Li on the shoulder, and the five of us went home.

At night, Jia Yang and I were too hot to sleep. We lay on bamboo mats and opened the windows. The wind blowing in was also hot. The rain in the morning seemed like an illusion.

We also slept once during the day, and we planned to go downstairs to have a drink of water.

I saw Lin Kai and his father who were about to go out.

"Aren't you asleep yet?" Dad asked.

"If you can't sleep, why are you going?"

I took a closer look and saw that their equipment was quite complete. They carried a bag with some knives and ropes inside.

"Let's go see wild boars. Hehe." Dad looked very excited.

Lin Kai continued, "Didn't we hear the sound of wild boars when we were putting out the fire this morning?"

"I thought it was an illusion!" I looked at Jia Yang.

"I'm thinking of going to see wild boar. If the wild boar is burned to death, we can still eat fresh wild boar!"

Speaking of fresh meat, we haven’t had it for a long time, and my eyes lit up.

"It just so happens that we can't sleep either, let's go too!" I pulled Jia Yang's hand, and Jia Yang nodded to me in affirmation.

"Okay! If you have more people, you can bring more meat with you!" Lin Kai replied.

"But like this, Lizi is at home alone, and it's not safe for her to be a girl at home..." Lin Kai thought, "Let's go call Lizi and see if she goes!"

"Uh-huh!"

Lin Kai quickly ran upstairs and knocked on Tian Li's door softly. After Tian Li opened the door, he quickly said a few words to Lin Kai. When he opened the door again, she was ready to go up the mountain.

"Sister Xiaoqi, take me one!"

Tian Li and I held hands, and the five of us walked up the mountain.

I remember that when I was a child, I was very afraid of the back mountains, especially in the summer, when the mountain wind blew and the shadows of the trees danced. The old houses in the past were different from the ones we live in now. The entire structure was made of wood. If there were really a zombie attack, we would definitely die.

undoubtedly.

But the scene now is much scarier than when I was a child. I don’t know why, but I am not afraid. Maybe it’s because I have seen too many bloody scenes and too many lives and deaths in the past few months.

We were already very familiar with the mountain road, and soon we arrived at the place where we cut the fire break last night.

You can see the dark blue sky here. Without the city lights, the sky here becomes particularly clear, and you can also see the small stars in the sky.

It’s just that the clouds in the sky are moving very fast.

As you walk forward, you can see the burnt tree trunks.

It looks like a black forest.

In the night, the black branches and the smell of burning seemed like a scene from a ghost movie.

Yesterday, there were many people and I didn’t feel it was scary, but today I feel a little eerie. Not far away, you can see burnt zombies, which still look like humans, with round heads and thin torsos...

There is also a sticky feeling on the body, which always makes people feel uncomfortable.

Looking around, there were burnt leaves and branches everywhere on the ground.

There are also some things that are dark and hard to see.

Lin Kai stepped forward and picked up one, "How pitiful, it's a squirrel!"

When Tian Li saw the squirrel being burnt, he felt distressed and walked up to discuss it with Lin Kai.

Dad looked at their backs, came over to me and Jia Yang and said, "These two kids look pretty good together!"

Jia Yang and I looked at each other and smiled, and I said to my father, "Dad, you have good taste!" I gave him a thumbs up.

Tian Li turned around and asked, "What did you say?"

I said: "No, no."

Finally, after searching for a few times, we saw the wild boar from last night.

This wild boar was probably smoked to death, and its nose was completely black. I thought so and said so.

"I remember that the wild boars on the mountain are all black." Jia Yang said thoughtfully.

"Ah? Is that so? I thought he died of smoke."

"Will its meat spoil?" Tian Li asked.

"It's possible, the weather is so hot, and it's been dead for a while," Dad replied.

Dad and Lin Kai used the props they brought to split open the wild boar's body. The wild boar's fur had been burned away by the fire, and its skin was thick, hard, and full of fat.

Jia Yang was beside him, holding down his body that was prone to twisting.

Because my hands were burned, Tian Li refused to let me work. She squatted down to pick up the pieces of pork they had cut.

Fortunately, the wild boar meat did not spoil.

This wild boar is enough to feed more than 20 people. The five of us in our family cannot eat so much pork at once, so we decided to carry it down the mountain later and share some with the villagers.

Recently, the five-person group has been a lot more polite to us because of Fang Zhijiu and Lin Kai's "identities". The villagers have also become alienated from them because they know what the five-person group has done. However, under their "power",

We have to work together.

When the villagers received the wild boar meat we gave them, they thanked us profusely and gave us some eggs.
