C67 (1/2)
After resting for a while, Chen Jing looked at his watch. Chen Jing's watch was the first gift Chen Lan bought for her father when they first returned from abroad. It was a high grade waterproof watch, so despite experiencing many dangers, it was still in good condition.
Chen Jing looked at his watch and saw that it was already past 12. He thought to himself that it was no wonder he was hungry, so he cut open a piece of snake skin and scales on the python with his axe, then used his sword to slice off a piece of snake meat that weighed several pounds. It was a pity that Chen Jing did not find the warm feeling of eating the fish. Perhaps its attribute was wrong, after all, this snake was definitely a high level animal.
At three in the afternoon, Chen Jing returned to Su City. Of course, when he returned to the railway maintenance car, which was 30 kilometers away from where he had been waiting, he instructed Zhang Xinlin and the others to bring the python's corpse back while he followed Zhou Ping back to Su City. After arriving at Su City, the engineering team, which was already on standby, quickly set out to clear the railway.
At 6 PM in the afternoon, the rail car travelled back and forth several times before finally being able to transport Zhang Xinlin and the rest, along with the seven to eight tons of snake bodies that had been chopped into several pieces, back to Su City. Naturally, he made a few pots of serpent broth at night. Sure enough, almost half of the people felt warm after eating it. This snake meat was truly a treasure! A huge snake gall that weighed more than ten kilograms. Yang Chaohui had instructed Su Cheng Pharmaceutical Factory to make pills, while the snake skin, including the fish skin that Chen Jing and others had brought, Yang Chaohui had made dozens of pieces of leather armor for the clothing factory. Of course, this was a story for the future.
The next day, Yang Chaohui stayed behind to guard Su City. Zhou Ping, Yang Fan, Mu Guanzhen, and Chen Jing led a squadron and a regiment from the First Division. More than four thousand people went to Huixi Battle Reserve's warehouse and arrived at Huixi Underground Station, where Chen Jing was battling the giant python. After finding out that the entire platform had been blocked, it took dozens of people over half an hour to clear a passageway. After entering the subway station, it was almost 12 o'clock.
Taking into account that it would most likely be a fierce battle once they reached the surface, Zhou Ping ordered them to have lunch and a short rest at the station before departing at one o'clock in the afternoon.
The battle preparation warehouse was located in the northeast of the town, which was over a kilometer away from the subway station. However, it was only about 500 meters in straight line. This area was indeed a gathering place for zombies. Even in the city, there were still dozens of zombies on the streets. Although the buildings on the street were only about 30 meters away from the subway entrance, in Chen Jing and the others' eyes, the distance was as wide as the sky!
What should he do? Getting rid of those tens of zombies was easy, but who knew how many zombies were in the surrounding area? This incident wasn't something to be trifled with, so he had to quietly enter the village.
A moment later, Chen Jing thought of a solution. He casually picked up an object beside him. It was a high-heeled shoe, thrown away by a woman who had once turned into a zombie. ”The sound of high heels hitting the ground naturally alerted a nearby zombie, so the zombie ran over to check out the situation. However, right after arriving, it was immediately cut in half by Chen Jing's Six Vein Divine Sword. After all, he was just an ordinary zombie, he didn't have such strong protection.
After that, the corpses on the ground naturally attracted the surrounding zombies, but these zombies were also gradually killed by Chen Jing, Zhang Xinlin, and the others. As more and more zombies piled up, the number of zombies that were attracted to them also increased, not just the zombies that they saw previously, but also the zombies that they didn't see previously. Finally, the high-level zombie also arrived. A member of the team threw out a sword of six meridians, which meant that there was nothing wrong with it. On the other hand, a member of the team discovered a member of the team in the tunnel.
After half an hour or so, no zombies came, so the group came to the entrance of the underground tunnel. The street was empty, not even a single zombie could be seen. Seeing the situation, Zhou Ping ordered the soldiers to bring the zombie corpses away, and then brought the cars and billboards and so on. From the entrance of the subway to the side, there were two walls built, forming a safe passage from the subway to the nearby buildings.
After that, Zhou Ping's team encountered a wall, and when they encountered a gap, they built a wall. Around 4 pm, a safe passage to the war preparation warehouse was built.
At 4: 10 in the afternoon, Chen Jing and the others arrived at the military reserve warehouse in Huixi City. From the outside, it looked like a crude grain warehouse with over one hundred mu of different buildings scattered all over. If it wasn't for the fact that Zhou Plains was originally a high level military reserve, they definitely wouldn't have believed that this place was the largest military reserve warehouse in the eastern military zone!
Under Zhou Ping's lead, the group arrived at a large bungalow. Opening the door, they found that it was indeed a large warehouse. However, the corridor in the middle was very wide, around ten meters wide.
However, when they entered the third door, the situation changed. There was a sloping downward slope, and then a heavy iron gate. Seeing this, Chen Jing naturally understood that the situation here was very similar to the new art company's underground base!
After reaching this place, Zhou Ping waved his hand, and several people came over with a gas cutter. About an hour later, the thick metal door was cut open.
After they walked for about a kilometer, a light appeared in front of them, and when they got closer, they discovered that there was another metal door, that metal door was wide open, but behind the door were two heavily fortified buildings, just as they were about to enter, a series of bullets shot out from the fort, followed by a voice shouting, ”Stop, this is a heavy military ground, those who enter will be killed without question!”
Hearing the shout, Zhou Ping took a step forward and said: ”I'm Zhou Ping, the head of the military region's main equipment department. How's the situation over there?”
”General, Captain Zhang Lin Jun is on guard duty.” After hearing Zhou Ping's words, a first lieutenant walked out from the right side of the fortress, walked up a few steps, and performed a standard military salute towards Zhou Ping. He then asked, ”General, what's going on outside? Did a nuclear war happen? Why haven't the military regions given us any orders?”
”Ah, Comrade Captain.” Zhou Ping returned the salute and sighed. ”It's not a nuclear war, but the situation is even worse. I'm afraid our country no longer exists. How are things here? ”
”Reporting to General, our place is very good. Ever since the incident last year, Chief Yuan Hao has been preparing for the emergency wartime order. He's been waiting for it ever since. He's been waiting for the military region's order!” The captain reported with another salute, then asked, ”Has the general brought orders from the military?”
”Well, Comrade Captain, how many people do you have here? How many zombies are there? ” Zhou Ping asked casually.
”Zombie? What zombie? ” This made Zhang Tie curious.
”What?” With an underground base as a precedent, Chen Jing was of course not surprised. However, Zhou Ping was quite surprised, ”You guys aren't infected with the biochemical virus?” No zombies appeared? ”
”We don't have any viruses here, nor do we have any zombies here.” the captain answered honestly.
”Strange! It's too weird! ” After Zhou Ping whispered to himself, he explained to Zhang Linjun, ”This catastrophe was caused by a biochemical virus. 10% of the people died, 70% turned into zombies, and only 10% survived. The country is no longer a country, the entire world is in chaos.”
”Um, General, you don't have any orders, I can't just bring you in. How about I report back to you?” Zhang Linjun said with a troubled expression.
”It's alright, you go and make the report!”
