This Wave of Zombies is No Good - Chapter 39

A few people lay down for a while longer, and by 6:30 in the morning, they got up and finished their final preparations.

Zou Lang was packing up his things and said, “He Ye, you first carry Wei Lin to the door, I’ll tidy up.”

“Alright!” He Ye didn’t think much of it, and carried Wei Lin out. As soon as he stepped out, Zou Lang slammed the door shut, and then…

Locked the door.

He Ye’s bag was still inside, and for a moment he was dumbfounded. He put Wei Lin down and kicked the door, saying, “Damn, Zou Lang, what are you doing?”

“Give me five minutes!” Zou Lang’s voice came from inside the door.

Wei Lin sat on the ground, watching He Ye’s frustration and confusion, and couldn’t help but want to laugh. But as soon as he chuckled, he felt a jolt of pain from his wound, and he groaned, covering his wound with his hand.

He Ye quickly ran over, no longer caring about what Zou Lang was up to.

Only Yu Jingtang and Zou Lang were left in the room. Zou Lang walked over to Yu Jingtang and said, “At such an important time, we should say our goodbyes.”

After he finished speaking, Zou Lang hugged Yu Jingtang, and then his hand started to move downward…

Yu Jingtang pursed his lips, and his face changed color.

Zou Lang felt his stiffness, and whispered in his ear, “Instructor. Doesn’t it hurt to sleep like this?” As he spoke, his finger moved, hooking the grenade at his waist.

“Give it to me!” Yu Jingtang’s face changed, and he reached out to grab the grenade with his combat skills.

Zou Lang dodged with a playful smile, “Wife, don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to. When I was a cunning person touching secretly, you didn’t even know where you were!”

Yu Jingtang was embarrassed and angry. Zou Lang held up a finger in front of him and made a quiet gesture, “Don’t, it will complicate things if the two outside hear.”

Yu Jingtang said in a deep voice, “That’s just a spare!”

“Even the spare one is not allowed.” Zou Lang said as he put the grenade in his trouser pocket. If Yu Jingtang tried to snatch it again, he was ready to play dirty and take off his pants.

Yu Jingtang’s face was filled with anger, and his attractive eyes stared straight at Zou Lang.

Zou Lang, on the other hand, walked over to him and straightened his collar, saying with a smile, “I see you’re much better now. I won’t stop you if you want to fight that zombie, but remember what you said, the gun is in my hand, today either we all die here, or we all go back together.”

Finally, the time had come. Zou Lang opened the door and he and Yu Jingtang walked out one after the other.

According to the previously agreed plan, Yu Jingtang and He Ye ran out of the front door to lure the monster, while Zou Lang, carrying Wei Lin, went around from the back door. Then both parties reached their designated positions and began to block the zombie.

The two groups arrived at the two ends of the warehouse, and at this time the monster was not far from the front door. Yu Jingtang made a one-two-three gesture, and then opened the door.

The zombies quickly noticed them and let out a low growl.

But the plan went awry as soon as it started. Perhaps because Wei Lin’s body had a strong smell of blood, the zombie actually followed them around to the back door.

Even if Zou Lang ran as fast as he could, carrying a person, he couldn’t outrun a mutated zombie that was on all fours.

Yu Jingtang turned around and was about to go rescue.

He Ye steeled his heart, took out his dagger and cut his palm. Blood gushed out, and he clenched his fist, whistled at the zombie, “Come, baby, follow me.”

The smell of blood stimulated the zombie, and it turned its head and roared, its tail flicked, and it finally turned its head and ran towards He Ye and Yu Jingtang.

Zou Lang, carrying Wei Lin, breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, there weren’t too many zombies along the way. Zou Lang ran to the predetermined location, put Wei Lin aside, and then turned his head to look at the gas station not far away.

Yu Jingtang had already run ahead, cut open the pipeline of the gas station with a knife, and oil flowed out from the pipe. The thick dark yellow liquid gathered on the ground.

Soon, the entire gas station was filled with the smell of oil.

The zombie caught up, and tangled with He Ye and Yu Jingtang in the gas station. Yu Jingtang was fighting while waiting for the right moment to tie up the zombie with a rope.

The kind of rope used by special forces naturally couldn’t trap a mutated zombie for long, but it could trap it for a while.

Relying solely on hand-to-hand combat, He Ye still had an advantage. His combined attack with Yu Jingtang was seamless, and the zombie was caught in a pincer attack, momentarily a bit powerless to counterattack.

After about a dozen moves, He Ye found an opening and kicked the zombie in the chest, causing it to retreat a few steps. It was just near a pillar in the middle of the gas station. Yu Jingtang flicked the rope in his hand and threw one end to He Ye. The two of them circled the zombie twice, securing the zombie to the pillar. Yu Jingtang kicked the pillar with one foot and pulled the rope tight with both hands, then quickly tied a mountaineering knot at the ends of the rope.

The step of trapping the zombie was successfully completed, and Yu Jingtang pulled He Ye to run out, retreating according to the plan.

Zou Lang saw this, his hand on the trigger, ready to shoot.

But unexpectedly, just as the two of them had run out about ten meters, something went wrong.

The zombie suddenly let out a earth-shattering roar, and with a forceful move of its arms, the muscles in its arms suddenly increased dramatically, and it actually broke the thick rope!

Then the zombie’s tail chased after them again.

Yu Jingtang was taken aback, the time was shorter than he had expected! And now the rope couldn’t be used, they had to improvise. In that moment, Yu Jingtang quickly made a decision, he turned around and charged at the zombie again, this time he drew the knife in his hand.

Yu Jingtang originally didn’t want to use the knife, because the friction of the blade had a certain chance of sparking and causing danger, but at this moment, he couldn’t care less.

The zombie roared and pounced at Yu Jingtang, its swinging claws bringing a gust of bloody wind.

Faced with this danger, Yu Jingtang remained calm. His good training foundation and excellent psychological quality allowed him to instinctively avoid the zombie’s several attacks based on muscle memory.

He Ye also rushed back, but his psychological quality was not as good as Yu Jingtang’s, and his moves were a bit chaotic.

In order to prevent He Ye from falling into a passive state, Yu Jingtang began to use his body when using the knife. His elbows, knees, and legs were all close combat weapons. His movements relieved He Ye’s crisis, but also made himself more dangerous. Before long, his leg was scratched by the zombie’s sharp claws.

Yu Jingtang gritted his teeth, his movements were not hesitant, he didn’t make any fancy moves, but each move was a feint, just waiting for an excellent opportunity.

Finally, under He Ye’s punch, the zombie showed a flaw. Yu Jingtang bent over, and the knife in his hand cut at the zombie’s foot joint, severing one of the monster’s legs.

The monster lost its balance and fell to the ground in an instant.

Yu Jingtang’s knife stabbed out again, gripping the hilt with both hands, piercing the zombie’s chest. He used all his strength in this strike, causing his hands to go numb. The long knife pierced through the body and stuck into a wooden box next to it, temporarily pinning the zombie.

“He Ye, run!” Yu Jingtang said as he threw his knife and retreated.

He Ye was ahead, and after running a few steps out of the danger zone, he looked back and saw that something was wrong with Yu Jingtang.

Yu Jingtang was struggling to run forward, his injured leg was still affecting his movement. Blood kept flowing from the wound on his leg, and the exhaustion of his physical strength made him sweat like rain. His whole body felt as heavy as lead, and he was about to fall to the ground at any moment.

The zombie behind him was roaring and struggling, pushing the long knife in its chest with its claws, and was about to break free.

Yu Jingtang felt the roar was very close to him, but he could hardly move. The short distance of a few dozen meters, which was usually easy for him, now seemed like the end of the world. A sense of despair welled up in his heart, and he shouted, “Zou Lang! Shoot!”

Zou Lang cursed, “Less nonsense! You fucking run faster!”

This was the first time Zou Lang had spoken to Yu Jingtang like this, it was disrespectful, rebellious, and even included a swear word.

He Ye, who had already reached the safe zone, rushed back and pulled Yu Jingtang to run forward.

At this time, the zombie had completely broken free, and its leg injury was rapidly healing, and it charged out again!

Yu Jingtang finally fell to the ground, and He Ye was still persistently pulling him. The last stretch of the road, the two of them were almost rolling and crawling.

“Shoot!” This was the second time Yu Jingtang shouted this word, and his voice was full of urgency.

But Zou Lang remained unmoved, still standing in the distance watching steadily. His face was unusually serious, his lips were pursed into a straight line, he was still waiting!

7 meters, 8 meters, 9 meters… the monster was about to rush out!

And Yu Jingtang and He Ye finally reached the safe zone.

Zou Lang finally raised his gun, his hand steady, leveling the gun, just like the thousands of times of training before, a bullet shot out from the gun hole.

It was a ray of light, like the first ray of soft light that God cast on mankind, carrying hope, breaking through all the darkness and chaos.

For a moment, time seemed to stand still.
