The sky was extremely turbid.
The cold wind whistled, and sparkling snowflakes danced in the sky.
The farmlands on both sides of the road were gradually covered in snow. The doors of the self-built buildings were closed tightly. The tile-roofed houses further away could no longer be seen with smoke.
It was as if the entire world was emitting a cold and gray aura.
At a glance, there were no signs of life.
.......
The bus drove past, rolling over the snow on the road, making a creaking sound.
"Bada."
Xu Anqing lit a cigarette.
In the days without passengers, cigarettes seemed to be the only thing to relieve boredom.
On the fifth day of the outbreak of the Winter Apocalypse, He City, which was surrounded by mountains, had become like this. Some countries and cities on the plains would probably be destroyed by an even more intense snowstorm, leaving very few survivors.
However, this was not something Xu Anqing should worry about.
He needed to go to the gas station in the West District to fill up the bus with gas and store a few barrels in the car.
.......
The bus drove steadily.
In the snowstorm, the outline of a special gas station box appeared in his field of vision.
"The last time I was here was when I was in high school.”
"Time really flies."
Xu Anqing looked at the gradually clear outline, and a trace of memories appeared in her eyes.
Granny Mountain was the only 4A scenic spot in He City.
During holidays and weekends, many people would come here to climb mountains and camp.
Especially in summer, many young men and women dressed in skimpy clothes would go to the small lake on Granny Mountain to swim and play. The white water was much more beautiful than the scenery.
Moreover, the unpolluted natural river water was highly sought after by the citizens of He City. Even in winter, many people went camping and barbecued. It was extremely lively.
However, there were only a few cars in the parking lot of Po Po Mountain now. Even the scenic area manager could not see them.
The once green mountains and clear waters were now all snow-white. Under the low clouds, one could only see the bottom of the mountains and not the top. It felt a little surreal.
Xu Anqing retracted her gaze and looked at the gas station not far away. She suddenly realized a serious problem.
"I think I need a gas card to cheer up. If it's an employee inside, wouldn't I have come all the way here for nothing?"
"Let's take a look at the supermarket at the gas station first.”
Granny Mountain was located in the mountains, far from the city, so there was a service area.
The service area included supermarkets, fast food restaurants, toilets, and other facilities for tourists to rest.
However, there was not a single person in this huge place.
Under the gloomy sky, snowflakes kept falling on the treetops, as if they were going to crush it, one after another, endlessly.
Xu Anqing put on his combat uniform, hung his saber on his waist, and walked to the supermarket with his revolver and mini pistol.
As soon as he opened the car door, a cold wind mixed with snowflakes blew against his face. The cold air entered his heart and lungs through his nose, making him involuntarily shiver.
"Hiss!"
"It's so cold!"
"It seems that I have to quickly upgrade the bus and obtain a constant temperature function. Otherwise, if the weather continues to be so cold, the electric heater won't work.”
Xu Anqing tightened his collar and silently increased his speed, making the creaking sound of the snow under his feet become denser.
Perhaps the sky was too dark, but the neon lights in the service area were lit up early.
In this snow-white world, the flickering red color made people feel inexplicably warm.
"Hello, is anyone there?"
"I want to work hard."
Xu Anqing came to the entrance of the supermarket and asked politely.
At the same time, he observed the situation inside through the glass door.
The rows of shelves were very neat.
However, all the supplies on the shelves had been cleaned out by the survivors, not even the chewing gum was left behind.
"Looks like there's someone!"
Xu Anqing's eyes lit up.
If the supplies were taken away, it meant that there were survivors.
Within a few kilometers of Granny Mountain, only the service area had buildings to shelter from the cold.
It meant that the survivors were nearby.
"Hello!"
"I'm not a zombie. If there's someone here, please give me a response or throw me a gas card.”
Xu Anqing placed his left hand on the revolver and looked around vigilantly, ready to draw his gun at any time.
He didn't want to hurt others, but he couldn't let his guard down.
At this moment, in the staff lounge of the supermarket, two girls were holding a hot water bag and trembling. The girl with a slightly round face said in fear,
"What should we do? Someone seems to be coming."
The other girl was calmer, but she was not much better. Her teeth trembled slightly as she said,
"Ignore him! I can't deal with the monster outside.”
"Right now, we can't even protect ourselves. It's impossible for us to have the strength to save others.”
"I hope he's on his own."
The two of them trembled at the mention of the monster.
It was obvious that he had seen the horror of the monster and was extremely afraid of it, which was why he had such a mechanical reaction.
"No one? If there's no one else, I'm going to break the glass door.”
The voice from outside came again.
The round-faced girl said anxiously,
"Sister Yuan, what should we do? He's going to barge in!"
The glass door could help them isolate part of the cold.
If there was no glass door, they would have died of cold here in no time.
Yuan Yuan subconsciously clenched her fists and whispered,
"Don't be afraid. The monster will come soon after hearing the commotion.”
"Sister Yuan, do you want to take this opportunity to fight?”The round-faced girl suddenly raised her head and whispered," There's only one survivor in so many days. If we miss this chance, we might not have another chance.”
The monster outside was faster and stronger than ordinary zombies.
It was so strong that it made them feel despair.
Now that a survivor had finally come to attract the monster's attention, they might be able to try their best. Otherwise, once the power went out and there was no heating equipment, they would only be waiting for death in the lounge.
He would die either way, so why not give it a shot?
Yuan Yuan was clearly struggling.
The rescue team had already begun their operation. She did not want to take any risks.
However, just as the round-faced girl had said, this place was so remote that even the rescue team would not come here to rescue them. If they missed this opportunity...
.......
Outside,
Xu Anqing saw that there was no response from inside. Just as he was about to kick open the glass door, a strange murmur suddenly sounded behind him, causing his hair to stand on end. His scalp was about to explode!
"Legs…Bai... White!"
