"Have you seen their guns?" Zhang Zhuo thought for a while and asked this question.
"No, but when monkey and I were outside Lianhua supermarket, we heard gunshots coming out, that is, after the prisoners entered." Luo Jia recalled.
"How many shots?" Zhang Zhuo did not spare a single detail.
"Then we hurried away." Luo Jia looked at Zhang Zhuo and continued to think whether there was any other information to tell him.
"Well, I've almost got some eyebrows in my mind," Zhang said. "I hope I haven't disturbed your rest."
"Where, where, really, you just came to take risks for us. We are very sorry. We just hope you pay more attention to safety when you move." Qiao Xingyu said: "it is not easy for people to survive."
"Well," Zhang Zhuo nodded and left here with Chen Bin.
After they had summed up, they went back to have a rest.
In the morning of the next day, after breakfast, everyone began to divide into two groups. Chen Bin and Zhang Zhuo went to Lianhua supermarket to ask for information. Monkey and Qiao Xingyu continued to search for survivors in phase IV of Yulan Xiangyuan.
There are still two points on the west gate and the South Gate in the community that have not been searched. We don't want to miss any place where there may be survivors, so the daily search and rescue work is still in progress. Dafei and Lao Huan stay behind in the Jiafu supermarket, while the girls are responsible for the housework. Luo Qiongfen takes Cai Ji and Cheng Zixuan full-time.
Both teams started from phase IV of Yulan Xiangyuan. The passageway out of the first floor of Jiafu supermarket has been blocked, and everyone has not had time to dredge it. Moreover, after the dredging, people need to be arranged to guard it, so it has been shelved there.
Monkey helped Chen Bin and Zhang Zhuo find an ordinary Santana. The car is half old but not new. It looks inconspicuous.
Chen Bin and Zhang Zhuo got on the bus, monkey and Qiao Xingyu got on another black SUV, and the two cars drove along the north edge of the community. When they reached the gate, they started to move separately.
Zhang Zhuo drove out of the gate and drove across Zhangdong road to Yijiang road. Chen Bin began to look at this familiar and strange place.
Zhangdong road is a two-way six lane road, and the two-way two lane Yijiang road meets at the gate of phase IV of Yulan Xiangyuan. However, there are many vehicles on the wide road at the gate. Chen Bin felt the chaos here when the mutation occurred on the cars that collided with each other and the corpses that had rotted to the point where the bones were exposed.
The road began to narrow from Yijiang road. Fortunately, Zhang Zhuo was born in the army and drove steadily. The sidewalks and green belts on both sides of the road are deserted, and garbage is scattered all over the ground, most of which are articles scattered by people when they run away.
Not far ahead is a bus station. The bus stop has been knocked down by a car. On the railing of the green belt, there is still a corpse, covered with white maggots. Some of them fell down and fell on the ground.
The car ran over from a bicycle that had fallen in front of it. One side of the wheel had already mounted on the sidewalk. Zhang Zhuo carefully controlled the car to pass through the cracks on the road, and from time to time he had to avoid the trees on the side of the road. Chen Bin is very familiar with this road. When he went out, he often waited for a bus at the bus station here, and the most people were Zhangjiang No. 1 and No. 636.
The car stopped at the zebra crossing in front of it. Zhang Zhuo saw a school on both sides of the road. On the left is a primary school and on the right is a kindergarten. Zhang Zhuo stopped his car here for a while and carefully observed the buildings on both sides.
"Have you ever been inside these houses?" Zhang Zhuo asked.
"No, before that, they basically worked in the Carrefour supermarket and phase IV, and the search scope has not been expanded." Chen Bin pointed to the community next to the school: "there are many communities here. This is the first phase. There is also a community behind the primary school there. There may also be survivors in it. But at present, our ability is not enough to reach here."
"Well, you're right. We only do things within our capabilities. After all, we are also responsible for our current peers." Zhang Zhuo also affirmed Chen Bin's idea.

The farther ahead, the more shocking the situation on the road. There is a commercial square between the school and shengxia road. There are many shops here and there is a large flow of people on weekdays. Looking from the road, the number of zombies in the square is very large, and some of them even run to the road and shuttle back and forth between vehicles.
The two banks on the roadside are also in a dilapidated state. When the mutation occurred, it must have suffered a serious impact. The glass gate of the bank has been broken, and the rolling gate outside has also been pried up and broken to one side. There are still some hundred yuan bills scattered at the door, some of which are stuck to the ground by blood. The corners of these bills are constantly swinging in the breeze.
Zhang Zhuo drove the car very slowly, trying to keep the noise from the engine as low as possible to avoid disturbing the nearby zombies. Some zombies who had found the car approached to this side. Zhang Zhuo pushed those who were in the front under the wheels, and those who were behind left them alone.
The exit of the phase I gate is blocked by many vehicles. The situation here is much worse than that of the phase IV gate. There are dozens of corpses on the open space outside the gate. Several zombies wander around the gate. When they see the cars coming, they look here.
These corpses should be survivors who escaped from the community on the day of the mutation. Their vehicles were blocked at the gate, so they had to abandon their vehicles to escape. However, those waiting for them outside were still dead. When disaster comes, life and death are just a line.
Compared with the outside situation, it is really very comfortable in the Carrefour supermarket. Chen Bin lamented his good luck and was worried about the unpredictable future.
"What did you do before?" Zhang Juchao and Chen Bin asked that they began to find topics to talk about, which could be used to pass the boring time on the road.
"I studied painting in high school and design in college. Now, I can't use these things," Chen Bin said with regret.
"Hey, you can't say that. Every experience in life is a valuable asset. There is nothing useless, only people who can't use it." Zhang Zhuo began to enlighten Chen Bin with a smile: "what is useful to learn?"
"Fighting, medical care and high-end research are OK," Chen Bin said after thinking for a while.
"You're right, but you should think so. Many people who learned these skills died in this disaster, but you survived. What does this mean? Don't just blame luck." Zhang Zhuo turned his head and looked at Chen Bin with a deep meaning in his tone.
"If it's not luck, what else can it be?" Chen Bin was puzzled.
"Although the painting and design you have learned may be of little help to you now, in the process of learning them, the process you have experienced and the people and things you have come into contact with are constantly shaping your behavior habits and personality. They are all part of your personality. Every problem you think about in daily life, the perspective you think about the problem, and the choices you make when you encounter problems are all related to these experiences 。” Zhang Zhuo's words made Chen Bin begin to meditate.
"Maybe you don't understand it, but I'll give you another simple example. The experience of life is like the air around us. We usually don't feel its existence and don't consider its value, but it really works. And once we lose it, life will suffocate." Zhang Zhuo lit a cigarette and handed one to Chen Bin.
"Thank you, I don't smoke," Chen Bin declined Zhang Zhuo's cigarette, still reflecting on what he said just now.
"I used to think that I was very capable. I could play with knives, guns and sticks. I won many awards in military training competitions. But what's the use? Although I have protected so many people, I haven't protected my most important people." Zhang Zhuo smoked a cigarette, and his tone began to feel sad.
"Haven't you heard from my sister-in-law?" Chen Bin asked.
Zhang Zhuo shook his head and took a long puff of smoke from his mouth. "I didn't hear her last position on the phone...".
"There will always be clues, and no news is good news," Chen Bin comforted him.
"That's the only way to think." Zhang Zhuo looked ahead, feeling a little complicated. He knew that the longer he stayed in the Jiafu supermarket, the less hope he could find Manman. However, he saved Ji Wenwen and Cheng Zixuan on the road, but he could not leave them in the Jiafu. If there were no prisoners nearby, perhaps Zhang Zhuo would not have any burden in his heart and could continue on his journey with confidence.
"Save the people to the end, and send the Buddha to the west," Zhang Zhuo said in his heart. Everything must have a beginning and an end.
"Here, there is Lianhua Supermarket in front," Chen Bin pointed to the other side. Zhang Zhuo saw the gate of Lianhua Supermarket through a spherical landmark in front of him.
The signboard of the "kangeryi" health club nearby is much more eye-catching than that of Lianhua supermarket. Zhang Zhuo looked over and saw that half of the body of a car was embedded in the gate of Lianhua supermarket, which opened the rolling gate, and the body just blocked the opening.
"The front of this road seems to be blocked," Zhang Zhuo recalled that when he brought Ji Wenwen and Cheng Zixuan out yesterday, many vehicles were blocked at the end of the road, just outside a middle school.
"Look there," Chen Bin said, his eyes falling on a piece of white cloth on the roof of Lianhua supermarket, which read "here is a shelter, with food and water".
"It seems that the people inside have some ideas," Zhang Zhuo felt that the people in Lianhua supermarket were not easy to deal with. According to Ji Wenwen's previous story about seeing their cars appear on the playground of Zhuyuan middle school, they might have found survivors and expanded the number of people in the team.
Zhang Zhuo wanted to drive into the parking lot of Lianhua supermarket from the spherical landmark. When he drove to the front, he found that the ground was covered with broken glass fragments of wine bottles, and there were many zombies around the gate of Lianhua supermarket.
