Li Yu had just picked up the call and was still half-asleep. When he heard what his uncle said, he instantly woke up and thought to himself, "Could it have been brought forward?"
Eldest Uncle, who was driving, didn't hear what Li Yu said clearly, so he asked, "What did you say? I didn't hear you clearly.
"Set off now. I don't know what will happen tomorrow or the day after tomorrow!"
There was noise in the background and the sound of police sirens all around them.
Li Yu came back to his senses and said to his eldest uncle, "Get Little Lue and Auntie to prepare their luggage. I'll come over now."
"Alright! Then I'll hang up first." He seemed to say to the team member beside him, "Are the anti-explosive suits ready?"
Li Yu hurriedly said, "Uncle, this matter is probably unusual. Be careful. If there are any accidents, come to my tourist park."
"Alright!" First Uncle hung up the phone after saying that.
Li Yu quickly got out of bed and washed his face. Then, he woke his brother up and asked him to go out with him.
His brother was sleeping soundly when he was suddenly woken up. He was a little unhappy.
Li Yu didn't care if he was happy or not. He dragged his brother up and ran outside.
"Wait, I'm wearing shoes. Where are we going? It's the middle of the night…" Li Hang complained.
"I'll tell you later. Go get a car. We'll take one each." Li Yu waited for him to put on his shoes, then walked out.
Halfway there, Li Yu seemed to have thought of something. He went down to the warehouse and took out two machetes with his keys. He casually wrapped them in cloth and took them away.
When they reached the door, Li Yu and Li Hang each pushed open the eight-meter-long door. Back then, their families did not understand why Li Yu wanted to make such a thick door.
Although it looked extremely safe, because it was too heavy, it was abnormally difficult to open.
After the two of them pushed open the door, Li Yu walked to the car and said to Li Hang, "Uncle just called and said that there's an abnormality in a village in our county. Everyone in the village has been infected with a virus, just like zombies. In a few days, traffic control will probably be implemented. Let's go over and bring Aunt and the others over."
Li Hang was stunned when he heard that.
"Ah? What virus? Does it have anything to do with the terrible weather these few days?"
"I don't know either. Let's go first. There's still a long way to go."
The two of them drove off and looked at the time.
November 21, 03:00.
As they drove on the national highway, the sky was dark without a trace of light, and there were very few cars on the road.
Along the way, they could only see a few cars.
It was not until they were almost at the county city that the number of cars gradually increased.
Suddenly, Li Yu heard a loud explosion.
Looking out of the car window, he saw two helicopters whizzing past.
What was going on? Helicopters had been deployed. There were actually helicopters in this small county.
Li Yu was shocked. Could it really have been brought forward?
No, he suddenly remembered that he was in M City before he was reborn. As he had been staying in the rented house, he had no idea what had happened outside.
In other words, it didn't happen early at all, nor did it happen on November 25th.
It turned out that zombies had appeared long ago, but he didn't know about it.
It was only after the heavy rain on the 25th that the situation was completely out of control. After all, zombies spread especially quickly. As long as they were bitten, they would change within three minutes.
He sped all the way.
They were passing a supermarket. Its glass door was broken and there was some blood on it. The ground looked like two corpses.
A police car was parked there, and there were some residents surrounding the supermarket, discussing.
"F*ck, what's going on? Why did someone die?"
"I heard that two people went to the supermarket to snatch something and smashed open the supermarket door…"
"Why did I hear that Old Wang, who was next door, was caught cheating? Then her husband found out…"
...
"It's moving, it's moving, it's coming back to life!"
The corpse that was clearly lying on the ground just now slowly squirmed. Then, it crawled up in a non-human posture. Its hands drooped down and it slowly raised its face.
What kind of face was that?!
His face was covered in blood and his flesh was badly mutilated. His eyeballs seemed to have been pulled out and were floating in the air.
It was as if a piece of flesh had been bitten off his arm, and his entire body was covered in black and white spots.
The other corpse beside him also got up.
The surrounding people took a few steps back in unison, and the commotion stopped abruptly.
"Spread out, spread out!" Three police officers got out of the police car that had just arrived.
As soon as he finished speaking, the two zombies suddenly rushed towards the crowd.
Everyone dispersed like birds and beasts.
However, one of the old men must have been old and ran slowly. One of the zombies caught up to him.
Crack!
The zombie bit the old man's neck.
Blood gushed out.
Everyone who was running in front turned around and saw this terrifying scene. They instantly ran even faster.
The three police officers followed closely. Before they could check on the old man who had been bitten, the zombie turned around and rushed towards the three police officers.
"What the f*ck is this???" Li Hang shouted when he saw this scene. His mind instantly went blank.
Of course, Li Yu also saw this scene, so he rolled down the glass and shouted at Li Hang, "Hurry up and leave. Go and pick up Aunt and the others first."
Li Yu's heart was beating like a drum. He didn't know if this was an exception or if it had already erupted on a large scale. He could only speed up now.
He hoped that his aunt and the rest were fine.
Hence, he called his eldest aunt and realized that there was only one signal.
Beep~ Beep~ Beep~
She only picked up the call when the time limit was almost up.
Li Yu simply told his aunt to pack her things first. He would be there soon.
He was about to tell them to wait at home and not go downstairs when the call was cut off.
He called again, but the call didn't go through. He picked up his phone and saw that the remaining signal was gone.
Li Yu's heart sank and he immediately started racing.
His aunt's house was in an old town. There was a kindergarten next to it, and it was just around the corner.
Seeing that he was about to arrive, Li Yu thought to himself,
'Looks like it must have erupted in advance. I have to hurry. Otherwise, it will be troublesome when it spreads.'
The two of them arrived at their aunt's building and had yet to park the car. From afar, they saw their aunt waiting downstairs with Little Lue.
There were more than a dozen bags beside the two of them.
When his aunt saw Li Yu, her face lit up with joy. She waved at him from afar. "Yu, here, here."
Li Yu heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that his aunt and Little Lue were unharmed.
He stopped the car and said to his aunt as he moved the things, "Let's get in the car quickly!"
Aunt looked at Li Yu's serious expression and then at Li Hang's dazed expression. It was as if she had seen something unbelievable.
She wanted to ask what had happened, but just as she was about to speak, Li Yu quickly said, "Don't ask yet. Move the things up. I'll tell you later."
"Little Hang, stop daydreaming! Hurry up!" Seeing that Li Hang was still immersed in the scene just now after stopping the car, Li Yu shouted angrily.
"Oh, oh, oh, okay." Li Hang seemed to come back to his senses after hearing Li Yu's angry roar.
He quickly got out of the car and threw the luggage into the car.
It took less than five seconds.
"Aunt, Little Lue, you guys take my car." Li Yu looked at Li Hang worriedly.
He patted him. "Little Hang, hurry up. Follow behind me later. Don't be distracted."
Then, he took out a knife from the car and handed it to Little Hang.
