After walking along the highway for a few kilometers, they saw the national highway. At this time, there were not many cars on the national highway. The sparse cars looked very miserable.
"Don't you think it's strange? Why can't I see those monsters at noon? Are they all taking an afternoon nap?”Chu Hanmei said as she drove.
An Yan thought about it when he heard her say that. Speaking of which, he really didn't see any insectoids at noon, but at night, those monsters would run out. They also appeared in the morning. What was the difference between morning and noon? It seemed to be the temperature. The temperature at noon was the highest, up to 30 degrees. Could it be that insectoids couldn't move in high temperatures or didn't like high temperatures?
An Yan told Chu Hanmei his thoughts, and her eyes lit up." It's really possible. From 10 to 6 pm, about eight hours is safe. That means we have to find a safe place during this time. Does Big Brother An know where we should go?”
"Go to the front." An Yan pointed at a gas station and said. No matter what, they had to have gas to go.
There was no one in the gas station. There were a few cars parked in a mess. The doors were open, and the pools of blood and limbs on the ground reminded them that something bad had happened here. They drove over, but the oil gun seemed to be out of reach. The road was blocked by other cars.
"Pack the car and wait in the car. I'll go find something to fill up the oil.”An Yan opened the car door and got out.
Chu Hanmei wanted to say that she would go with An Yan, but she thought that it was safe in the car. Even if there were monsters, she could still drive away, so she didn't say anything.
An Yan carefully checked the other vehicles. He held a military knife in his hand to guard against the attack of the insectoids. He turned the car around and saw a few bodies. They hadn't smelled yet. Perhaps they had died here last night. A gas gun was lying on the ground. An Yan didn't move it. He walked to the house in the gas station. There might be insectoids there, but only there would be oil barrels. He could use the oil barrels to fill some gasoline, so that the car would not have to worry about refilling.
He first looked at the window. The things inside were clear at a glance. There were no insectoids. An Yan pushed the door open, but it didn't budge. He kicked the door open.
An Yan admired his kick very much. He could now feel the increase in his strength. In the past, his strength was about two-thirds of others, but now it should be twice as strong. He had never tried it before, so he guessed based on his usual performance. He walked in cautiously. The room was very clean. Other than the television and a bed, there was only a table and a stool left. There was also a door that led to the back. An Yan picked up the bedsheet with a knife. There were some shoes and socks under the bed, which were a little smelly. The door at the back was also locked. He used his old trick and broke the door open.
As soon as he kicked open the door, he saw a stool fall down. However, the person inside clearly underestimated the situation and did not expect An Yan's position at all. The stool fell too close to the front, brushing past An Yan's nose and falling to the ground. With a bang, the chair fell to the ground. An Yan only took two steps back.
"Who is it?" As he shouted, An Yan raised the military knife in his hand and prepared to attack.
"You, are you human?" The person inside raised his stool and did not attack immediately. He asked with uncertainty.
At this moment, An Yan saw clearly that the person opposite him was in his twenties. He had a crew cut and was wearing work clothes. He was clearly a worker at this gas station. He put away the knife and said," Of course I'm human. My name is An Yan. Are you okay?”
The man put down his stool and said in embarrassment," Oh, I'm sorry about just now. I didn't hurt you, right? Were there no more man-eating things outside?”
"No, it seems that the monsters don't come out during the day. We're here to refuel. By the way, are there oil drums here?”
The man turned around and took out a large bucket. The plastic bucket was half the height of a person, round, and about two feet in diameter. They went outside together. An Yan looked at the person cheering him on. He touched his chin. It seemed that he had no money now. If he asked him for money, he wouldn't be able to take it out.
"My name is Qian Shengshui. I'm a worker here. There were suddenly many monsters last night. I was taking shifts inside when I heard screams outside. I hid in the cabinet in the inner room. Later on, there were many screams. I don't know how many times they sounded throughout the night. Are they all dead?" Qian Shengshui was adding fuel. He saw the dead person An Yan had mentioned. From this angle, he could only see half of the body. The blood on the ground had already turned dark red.
An Yan nodded. He was not in the mood to talk. The insectoid had already arrived here, and he did not know where the safe zone was. According to An Yan's own observation and Qian Shengshui's explanation, he believed that the insectoid's hearing should be more developed, and their vision should be very impressive. The insectoid's eyes seemed to be similar to that of a kitten or a puppy, and they should be able to see clearly at night. Only their sense of smell seemed to be less developed. An Yan memorized all of this. This was very important knowledge. Only by understanding the monsters could he better deal with them.
"We need to find a safe place. What are your plans?”An Yan asked.
Qian Shengshui screwed the lid of the oil barrel back on and looked around at the tragic scene." I wanted to go home, but I think it's very difficult. Did most of the people in the city escape?”
"There are a lot of monsters in the city. There is no electricity inside, so we don't know where the monsters are. There is no effective counterattack, no one to command, and everything is chaotic. "We escaped from there, and too many people died. If no one cares about it in the summer, it will rot very quickly. Think about that kind of environment." An Yan said a few words and did not say anything else. He had already said what he needed to say. It was the freedom of others to choose.
After putting down the oil barrel, An Yan pushed the oil barrel and rolled outside. Qian Shengshui quickly caught up and joined the ranks of pushing the oil barrel." Brothers, I'd better go with you. One more person means more strength."”
Of course, An Yan welcomed him. It was safer with more people.
They rolled the oil barrel outside, but they didn't put it up. It seemed that the volume of the oil barrel was too big. Their car was originally a private car, and there was a lot of food in the trunk. The front seat couldn't fit it either.
"Haha, this Brother Qian is really an honest person. He's afraid that we don't have enough gasoline. How about this, Brother Xiaoshui, you can choose whichever car you like. In the past, he couldn't afford a car, but now that he had the chance, he didn't have to be polite.”
"And this is?" When Qian Shengshui saw Chu Hanmei, he sighed in his heart that this girl was too beautiful. Her eyes and nose made him feel like he was about to fall for her.
"Her name is Chu Hanmei. Oh, Xiao Mei. This Brother Qian, Qian Shengshui, wants to come with us. Aren't you going to find a car?" An Yan said to Qian Shengshui, who was dawdling beside him.
"Alright, why don't we go and take a look together?”Qian Shengshui was very afraid of the dead people there, so he did not dare to go there himself.
An Yan didn't think too much about it. He and Qian Shengshui pushed the two cars apart and chose a green Beiqi Warrior SUV. The car had a high and sturdy chassis, and the space inside was large enough to accommodate the large oil barrel. The two of them carried the oil barrel up and were so tired that they were sweating. An Yan looked at the car outside and saw that Chu Hanmei was still inside. That little girl actually didn't come to help, which made An Yan a little angry.
Qian Shengshui went to his hiding place and took out a box of large bottles of coke and a travel bag. The bag was bulging with things. An Yan also found a car and asked Qian Shengshui to find a gas can. He filled the car up. He wanted to practice his driving skills. After all, there was no danger during the day. He was originally very envious of that off-road vehicle, but he knew that his skills were not very good. It would be a pity if he crashed it. I'll just make do with one that can be driven.
Both of their cars were ready to be refilled here. There were no bumps on the cars, but Chu Hanmei's car looked very miserable. She gave up and found a red Fiat.
Seeing Chu Hanmei limping, Qian Shengshui asked An Yan softly," Well, children have never suffered before. If they walk too much, their feet will get blisters. It's not a big deal."”Although that was the case, An Yan's soles had blisters last night, but he was fine after a night's sleep. He was secretly happy about his recovery ability.
Qian Shengshui was relieved to hear that. It would be a pity if such a beautiful girl was crippled.
When they came, there was only one car. When they left, there were three cars. An Yan drove a car that he didn't recognize. The three cars set off one after another. Fortunately, they were on Provincial Road 231. This road was about 30 meters wide and the road was flat. Other than driving into the ditch, there would not be any accidents.
However, accidents still happened. There were abandoned cars on the road from time to time. Some were by the roadside, while others were parked horizontally in the middle of the road. There were also bitten human bodies on the road. Every one of them was extremely miserable, and countless flies were flying on them. Those corpses made people's hearts ache. These were their own kind. These people might have been successful businessmen in the past, or beautiful women in the eyes of everyone, but now they had become corpses with their stomachs cut open and their flesh mutilated. It was very likely that there were bugs in the corpses. An Yan thought of the corpses he saw at the intersection, so he didn't want to get out of the car and push them away, so he ran into them.
Looking at the scene on the road, there were other vehicles passing by. Some of the corpses on the ground had been crushed into bloody mud, leaving red tire marks on the road. Some cars had their doors knocked off, and some were directly smashed apart.
An Yan, this half-baked person, would sometimes crash into the car or run over the dead bodies when he couldn't dodge in time. Later, he knew that it was impossible to get past all the corpses with his skills, so he stopped deliberately dodging. Although there was air conditioning in the car, An Yan was still sweating profusely. He was too nervous. There was no traffic police here. An Yan was just afraid that his car would capsize. After hitting seven or eight cars and running over more than ten corpses, An Yan's car had already become a wreck. He could not help but sigh at the quality of this car. Even so, it could still be driven.
The two people behind An Yan easily followed him. In their opinion, An Yan's speed was still too slow. After seeing too many corpses on the road, they would slowly become numb. Qian Shengshui vomited twice but stopped vomiting.
They stopped at a wide empty area, ate something, and rested for a while. It was already two o'clock in the afternoon. They had driven for almost three hours. Due to the poor road conditions and An Yan's poor technical skills, they had traveled a total of about 160 kilometers.
