Cao Shengli clutched the steel pipe with both hands, gasping for breath, and his face was covered with sweat.
When he saw Dafei in the car, he didn't have time to think about it. He didn't know where his courage led him to get off the car to help.
He took out the steel pipe from the back of the seat, opened the door and rushed out. The little girl in the back seat stopped crying and opened her eyes to see Cao Shengli rushing out of the car.
Holding the steel pipe with both hands, Cao Shengli smashed the back of the head of a zombie. The blood splashed, and the back of the Zombie's head collapsed under the heavy blow of the steel pipe. Its body slowly fell down, and some red and white things flowed out of its head.
Dafei got a chance to breathe. After Cao Shengli joined, the situation has been reversed. Before, Dafei fought three enemies with one enemy and became a zombie of Chen Bin.
The last zombie in front of me was killed by the people without any intention. The sound of fighting here attracted some zombies in the distance of the road, and their figures came through the gap between the cars.
Chen Bin told the monkeys to get on the bus. He and Dafei went into the house and helped Luo Qiongfen out. When the zombie was about ten meters away from the car, the monkey started the car and drove to the east gate of the community.
Six people crowded into the car. Dafei was sitting in the passenger's seat. Chen Bin and Cao Shengli were sitting in the back row.
"Grandma Luo!" Cai Ji saw Luo Qiongfen and began to cry again.
"Xiaoji!" Luo Qiongfen had not yet recovered from her weakness when she was helped to the car. Suddenly she heard a familiar voice calling out to herself. Only then did she realize that there was a little girl sitting in the back seat. This was not Cai Ji and who was she.
Cai Ji climbed over to sit on Luo Qiongfen's lap and threw herself into her arms. Luo Qiongfen hugged Cai Ji and couldn't help crying.
Everything is like a dream.
The little girl is one of the people Luo Qiongfen cares about most these days. She was entrusted by Cai Ji's mother. She took care of CAI Ji for a long time. The two people have developed deep feelings. They are not relatives, but they are better than relatives. Luo Qiongfen's husband has passed away for many years, and her only daughter has been married abroad for several years. Two years ago, my daughter took me to live there for a while. However, due to the language barrier and the lack of a familiar circle, the old man was completely unaccustomed to living there. Moreover, my daughter and her foreign son-in-law have not been able to bear children, which adds a lot of regret to the old man.
When Cai Ji's mother found Luo Qiongfen, Luo Qiongfen agreed. Cai Ji was very smart, lively and cheerful, and the old man liked her very much. He unconsciously regarded her as his granddaughter.
Luo Qiongfen's life has been enriched since she began to take care of CAI Ji. She doesn't like to chew her tongue behind her back like other elderly people in the community. Therefore, apart from occasionally going to the elderly activity center to play mahjong, she usually stays at home to do sewing and other work. This kind of contract work can't earn much money, and Luo Qiongfen is not short of money. She does it purely to pass the time. Taking care of CAI Ji made the old man's gray life colorful, as if he had returned to the time before his daughter went abroad.
Everyone left in a hurry, and the doors in the yard had no time to lock, but Luo Qiongfen did not care. After getting on the bus, she recovered a lot and met Cai Ji again. The old man was very satisfied.
"Grandma Luo and Uncle Chen were sent by her mother to save us," Cai Ji introduced Luo Qiongfen in her own way.
Chen Bin smiled at Luo Qiongfen, who responded with a grateful expression.
On the way, Chen Bin and Luo Qiongfen introduced themselves and the situation of Jiafu supermarket. Luo Qiongfen was also very happy to go to Jiafu with them.
The little girl asked if her mother was in the Jiafu supermarket. Chen Bin made up a lie to deceive Cai Ji. Luo Qiongfen felt sad when she heard Chen Bin's reply to Cai Ji. Cai Ji thought that her mother was rescuing other children in other places as Chen Bin said, but the old man guessed the truth that Chen Bin had not said.
"Alas..." Luo Qiongfen sighed in her heart and wiped tears from her eyes.

"Grandma Luo, don't cry, don't cry. We've all been saved. We should be happy," Cai Ji said to her thoughtfully when she saw Luo Qiongfen wiping her tears.
Luo Qiongfen's heart warmed, and she put a smile on her face. Her heart also opened up.
Qiao Xingyu is on the side of the east gate of the community. The passage leading to the parking lot on the top floor blocks some of the sunshine, but the temperature is still high. Qiao Xingyu did not care about the change of his skin color. During this period, his mood was very different from that of the past. Apart from occasionally thinking about his family abroad, what he thinks most every day is how to survive. Having experienced life and death, Qiao Xingyu also looked down on life and death, but he was reluctant to die because there was Zou Qiqi.
The sound of the car engine vaguely came from the community. Qiao Xingyu was inspired. He ran to the revolving iron door and looked inside. A black SUV came out from the corner. It was the monkey sitting in the driver's seat.
"I'm back at last," Qiao Xingyu said in his heart.
The car stopped in front of the revolving iron door. The door of the rear seat of the SUV suddenly opened, and a little Lori jumped out.
"Hi ~" Cai Ji and Qiao Xingyu greeted each other.
"Hi..." Qiao Xingyu hasn't recovered. Little Laurie followed another old man. The old man saw Qiao Xingyu at the door, knew that he was a friend with Chen Bin, and smiled at Qiao Xingyu.
Suddenly, two new faces, old and young, appeared. Qiao Xingyu was completely unprepared. Previously, in his guess, the most ideal result of this action was that Chen Bin and the four of them could escape completely. However, it was unexpected that they really saved the survivors, or two at a time.
Dafei and others also came down from the car one after another. Monkey and Cao Shengli walked last, and they brought back the bags on the car together.
Qiao Xingyu took the bag from Cao Shengli and helped him share the weight. Then he led Luo Qiongfen and Cai Ji to the elevator in the unloading area.
Luo Qiongfen took Cai Ji's hand and observed the surrounding situation as she walked. The box was cut off by several large trucks. The bottom of the truck was filled with large bags of sundries, which was tightly blocked. The space between the cab and the carriage of the large truck is also filled up, leaving no dead space.
Cai Ji is no stranger to this place. She used to go shopping with her mother in the supermarket. Now the surrounding environment is very different from before. When the little girl became curious, she forgot her fear when she saw the zombie.
The party went up to the second floor. Zhao Guangcheng was taking Luo Jia to go down to change shifts with Qiao Xingyu. He saw Qiao Xingyu leading the crowd back, and there were two new faces in the crowd.
The atmosphere of the Jiafu supermarket began to liven up. Zou Qiqi and a CAI tidied up the shelves inside. Lao Huan helped them make more space to take care of their living place. After moving the shelves in rows, they were regularly rearranged, separating the area into small pieces. The ground had been cleaned. Zhao Guangcheng also brushed it with the supermarket's cleaning car in advance. Clean bedding was laid on the ground, and a floor was laid in each space.
The arrival of Luo Qiongfen and Cai Ji makes everyone very happy. New faces are always exciting. Moreover, Cai Ji's liveliness is more like a firework in the night sky, adding a lot of color to life.
Luo Qiongfen still stumbles when she walks. Ah Cai helps her sit on a paved floor. Everyone has nothing to do for the time being, so everyone is around.
Cao Shengli vividly told Lao Huan about what happened on the road, and did not forget to teach his old brother some of the fighting skills that Dafei had corrected him. Tsai Chi chose a place next to Luo Qiongfen's bunk, put down her mountain bag, and took out things one by one.
After a while, the little girl also put the things she brought out of her home on the side of her bunk. After setting out the things, Cai Ji ran to Luo Qiongfen's side and began to talk to everyone. It seems that she really has a set of kung fu skills.
After chatting for a while, all the people who went out for the activity went to change their clothes first, and several girls got up to prepare food. Luo Qiongfen wants to stand up and help. Ah Cai asks her to sit down and have a rest, and assigns the task of accompanying Luo Qiongfen to Cai Ji.
Luo Qiongfen's heart calmed down a lot. It was the first time she had seen so many living people these days. After the day of mutation, every day in her home was a torment. There was no electricity, the hot weather could be tolerated, and the food could be barely supported for some time. Every time Luo Qiongfen went to buy vegetables, she would buy a lot of them and put them in the refrigerator. Then she would bring the dishes she wanted to cook to Cai Ji's house to cook for her. What almost made Luo Qiongfen lose her spirits was the killing that took place in the yard and outside the window. She lived most of her life. When she was young, she heard the old people tell stories of various gods and demons. These monsters that appeared around were completely different from those gods and demons, but they were extremely bloodthirsty. Luo Qiongfen has seen several scenes of zombies eating people with her own eyes, which makes her dare not sleep every night for fear that these monsters will suddenly appear beside her after she falls asleep.
After getting old, it is difficult to guarantee the quality of sleep. Luo Qiongfen has a very light sleep, and even a slight sound can easily wake her up. She could not sleep well and was worried all day. In addition to the lack of food and malnutrition, Luo Qiongfen's body became weaker and weaker. When she was near the zero point where she was crushed, she finally met Chen Bin and others.
God will always care for some people. Luo Qiongfen has been to Jiafu supermarket many times. She has never felt that this is paradise like today. What she didn't know was that this place was once a purgatory. In the bus parking area downstairs, the remains of dozens of people were still lying in the hot sun. The peace and tranquility on the second floor were realized through the unremitting efforts of Chen Bin and Qiao Xingyu, who later joined.
This place is like a small piece of Paradise under the end of the world. Luo Qiongfen has taken this place as a new home in her heart.
