"Aunt Luo?" Chen Bin whispered.
There was a rustling sound in the room. It seemed that something had hit the table. Chen Bin and the three stood by the door and waited for a while. Seeing that the door was not opened, the monkey had to take out the wire and try to unlock it.
The lock on this door is a little more complicated than the lock in the yard, but it is not difficult for the monkey. The glass enclosed yard was extremely hot, and the monkey's face was sweating. In his concentration, he did not bother to wipe the sweat, and let the sweat drop from his chin.
As time went by, there was no new news in the room. Chen Bin and Dafei were worried and didn't know what was happening inside.
One end of the wire is slightly cocked up, and the monkey extends into the keyhole to test it bit by bit. The structure inside the keyhole is touched by the wire, and the monkey gradually knows it through the grasp of the hand.
The monkey felt the feeling from the wire in his hand, and his ears kept catching the inaudible sound in the lock eye.
When Chen Bin saw that the monkey took a long time, he also felt a sweat in his heart. He and Dafei stood behind the monkey without making any sound, for fear of affecting the monkey's performance.
"Well," said the monkey with a long breath. Chen Bin and Dafei also put down their confidence.
The monkey wiped the sweat on his face, put away the wire in his hand, and then gently pushed the door open.
It's cooler inside than in the yard. In the middle of this room is a big table made up of two small tables. A piece of cloth is spread on the table. There are some cloth and thread balls on the table, and a layer of fine dust falls on it. It seems that nobody has cleaned it for a while.
In one corner of the table is an old-fashioned sewing machine, which is similar to the one Chen Bin left at his home in Jiangcheng city. This sewing machine, like the er'ba bicycle, is a relatively old thing of the last century, and it is hard to say that it is a generation's memory.
Chen Bin goes around the table to find the place where the sound was made before. He has determined that there must be someone in the room. There was a man lying on the ground behind the table. Chen Bin saw two feet sticking out on the ground behind the table.
The monkey pulled up the tablecloth that was about to fall to the ground and was checking under the table. Chen Bin had already walked around the table with a crossbow and arrow.
Lying on the ground was an old man in her fifties and sixties. She fell on the ground, and her hair and clothes were stained with a lot of dust. After Chen Bin observed the situation, he went over and put his finger to her nose to try her breath.
"How is it?" Dafei came over from behind, squatted down beside the old man, and began to look at the man on the ground.
"And breathe. We need to save her." Chen Bin took water from his bag, poured it into his palm, and sprinkled it on the old man's face.
At first, the old man didn't move. After Chen Bin put some water on her face, he saw that her eyelids began to shake a few times.
Luo Qiongfen is having a dream. In the dream, she is walking alone in a desert. The scorching sun over her head scorched the earth and the yellow sand. Luo Qiongfen felt that she was surrounded by a flame, and was too hot to breathe. The sand under her feet began to flow like water, and it was more and more difficult to walk. Luo Qiongfen wanted to put her hand beside her forehead to block the sun's light, but she found that she could not lift her hand anyway.
She just fell forward. There was no pain when she fell on the sand. When the flowing sand came into her mouth, Luo Qiongfen felt an unspeakable bitter taste.
The sand began to accumulate on her body. Luo Qiongfen was shocked to find that she could not make any effort at all. She could not move and could only let the sand cover her. More sand came into her mouth and slid into her throat. The friction between the sand and her throat caused a burst of pain. Luo Qiongfen felt a knife in her throat.
The sand spreads over the palm, over the shoulder, over the nose, and finally over the eyes. It began to become dark in front of her. Luo Qiongfen fell into a panic. She felt that she was about to die and her breathing could continue. This made her very strange.

There was a burning sensation in her stomach. Luo Qiongfen felt that the sand had gone into it. This feeling made her very uncomfortable. However, her body was soft and she could not use any strength. The heart was beating fast, and Luo Qiongfen could clearly hear its sound.
Some water suddenly came out of the gravel, wetting Luo Qiongfen's face a little, which made her feel much more comfortable. Her body was buried under the sand, but Luo Qiongfen still tried to open her eyes. She felt the breath of death and the hope of living. Her belief in survival finally overcame the fear of death.
It seemed that a clear spring flowed into her mouth. In a moment, her throat and stomach were much more relaxed. Luo Qiongfen opened her eyes and began to feel the pain in her head. It seemed that her waist had hit something. Under the multiple pain, she almost fainted again.
She saw three young men squatting or standing beside her. One of them was holding a bottle of mineral water to her mouth.
Luo Qiongfen reached for the bottle of mineral water, but when she lifted it up, she found it was useless.
"Wake up," Chen Bin saw that Luo Qiongfen opened her eyes. It seemed that the water she had just fed her mouth with a bottle had played a role.
Chen Bin picked up Luo Qiongfen's body and sat her up with his back against the leg of the table beside him. The mineral water in her hand reached to Luo Qiongfen's mouth and helped her hold the bottle.
Luo Qiongfen drank a few mouthfuls and coughed. After a while, she drank a little more and her face recovered some blood color.
Dafei handed over a packet of biscuits. Chen Bin opened them and fed one to Luo Qiongfen. Luo Qiongfen chewed the food in her mouth and took the rest of Chen Bin's hand.
The monkey walked around the house and found that there were only three people here except the old man. The things in the room are arranged neatly. A layer of dust is on many furniture. The electricity in the room seems to have been cut off long ago. Several windows with metal railings are opened for ventilation.
"Thank you," said Luo Qiongfen. She was very weak and her face was a little dark. After eating the biscuits in her hand, she drank some water and looked much better.
"Are you aunt Luo?" Chen Bin asked.
Luo Qiongfen was shocked, and her face showed surprise. Chen Bin was about to speak to her about Xiaoji when he heard some noise outside the yard.
"Ah!" The scream came in from the outside. Chen Bin and the three people were shocked when they heard it. This is Xiaoji's voice. What happened outside?
There was no time to say more to Luo Qiongfen. Chen Bin and the others rushed out of the room and ran out.
In the black car, the little girl was looking at the zombie on the window with a frightened face. Cao Shengli's snoring was interrupted by Cai Ji's scream.
Cao Shengli woke up with a start. Before he could wipe off the saliva on his mouth, he was stunned by the scene beside the car.
I don't know when this SUV has been surrounded by several zombies. They are looking at the people inside through the window and clutching at the door with their arms. Bloody handprints were left on the glass. He Cheng, the little girl, had seen such a scene and was at a loss after screaming.
Chen Bin and others were not seen nearby. Cao Shengli didn't know what to do for a while. Cai Ji had forgotten the less frightening comments he made about the zombie. He sat in the back seat and cried.
Chen Bin rushed to the gate of the yard and saw four or five zombies around the car. He quickly shrank behind the door and then reached out to block Dafei and the monkey behind him.
Dafei looks out and takes a breath.
"What is it?" The monkey asked them.
"I'm in trouble..." Dafei said, pointing out and gesturing to the monkey.
"Fuck me..." the monkey cursed in his heart.
With a "puff" sound, a zombie beside the car leaned against the car and fell down. His head was shot through by a crossbow and arrow. The arrow protruded from the other side of his head and pulled a mark on the black body.
Several zombies nearby turned to look around. Chen Bin moved quickly. After shooting an arrow, he immediately retracted his body, and did not check whether the arrow hit the target.
After two seconds, Chen Bin leaned out and saw the corpse lying next to the car. He felt a little relieved.
The second arrow hit the head of a zombie again. The remaining three zombies found the situation behind the yard door, and turned around one after another and walked towards the yard.
"Cover me," Dafei said to Chen Bin and the monkey, holding a bat and ready to rush out from behind the door.
The living people from behind the door made the zombies extremely excited, and their desire for the flesh and blood of the living people drove them to fly. Dafei hit a zombie with his first stick, and it tumbled to one side, then struggled to get up again. Dafei here has already begun to parry the two zombies coming from behind. The distance between them is very close. Chen Bin holds the crossbow and hesitates, fearing that the crossbow will hurt Dafei by mistake. The monkey had no weapon in his hand, so he ran back to the yard and carried a flowerpot out. He held the flowerpot high above his head and threw it at the head of the zombie who was falling on the ground and was about to climb up. The flowerpot "dangled" and split on the head of the zombie. The half body of the zombie just supported fell down again.
Dafei's situation is a bit dangerous. When facing three zombies alone, the first stick swings out, and the other two zombies who come from behind have no strength to attack, so they have to parry. The shield of his left hand is against a zombie, and he can't bear to push it away. The other Zombie's hand reaches over the stick that holds his body and grabs Dafei's face. Dafei tilts his head to the side and narrowly hides.
The pushed zombie rushed up again. Chen Bin saw a very large gap on Dafei's left side, and was about to pull out a dagger to fight. Suddenly, he saw a blood flower on the back of the head of the zombie held by Dafei with a bat.
Dafei's stick against the Zombie's body relaxed. The zombie slowly fell down, and Cao Shengli's figure emerged from behind.
