Chapter 16 Immediately (《》)

It was late at night. After the consciousness returned, Xie Tian walked out of the bedroom and took out a pack of high-end cigarettes left by his former owner under the coffee table in the living room. Xie Tian rarely smoked. However, when he was at school, he always liked to stay up late to play games with other brothers in the dormitory on weekends. When he stayed up late, he would sometimes smoke a cigarette to refresh himself. At this time, he wanted to smoke because of an extremely unrealistic feeling that suddenly arose in his brain.

Xie Tian lit a cigarette, stood on the balcony and looked at the city under the night sky. There was no longer a trace of light made by humans. Looking back on everything he had experienced these days, Xie Tian hoped that this was a nightmare. If you look at it too cruelly, it would even make people lose hope for life.

The sound of gentle footsteps came, and Zhao Ziye, wearing pajamas, walked out of the room, passed by the living room, and stood behind Xie Tian.

"Can't sleep?" Zhao Ziye asked softly.

"Yes." Xie Tian responded without looking back, but just asked Zhao Ziye lightly: "Does human beings still have a future?"

Zhao Ziye smiled bitterly and asked back: "Why are you asking me such a emotional question?"

"I don't know." Xie Tian smiled like a self-deprecatingly and said, "I just suddenly felt a little melancholy. Maybe I was so tired of it."

Zhao Ziye was embarrassed for a moment, shook his head and chuckled: "I also have insomnia. I just lie in bed and kept thinking about a problem."

“What’s the problem?”

"A multiple-choice question: The first option is to die here without pain, the second option is: to die in pain on the way to hope, may be starving to death, to death from illness, or torn to pieces by zombies, or to become a zombie without emotions."

Xie Tian turned around and said with a smile: "I am worthy of being a host, and I speak so literary."

Zhao Ziye smiled. He was about to speak, but he suddenly became stunned when he saw Xie Tian's expression. In amazement, Xie Tian blurted out: "It's an airplane!"

"What?" Zhao Ziye was stunned by Xie Tian's answer and asked in confusion: "What plane?"

"There is a plane!" Xie Tian grabbed Zhao Ziye's hand and ran to the door. He pushed open the door without saying a word and pulled Zhao Ziye upwards. In front of the iron fence gate leading to the rooftop on the top floor, Xie Tian shook the iron door frantically and seemed to be crazy. Zhao Ziye couldn't help but be shocked.

The iron fence door is made of steel bars as thick as a little finger. With Xie Tian shaking so vigorously, the lock nose quickly fell off. When the door opened, Xie Tian pulled Zhao Ziye's hand again and ran to the rooftop of the building.

Zhao Ziye didn't care about Xie Tian's hand tightening without permission, and just followed him and ran with all his might.

On the rooftop, Zhao Ziye could already hear the faint roar of the plane. She was ecstatic and hugged Xie Tian's arm and shook it hard, saying, "Are we saved?"

The roar came from the north, but for a long time, the two saw two black spots gradually growing in the sky. As soon as the plane entered Yangcheng, it began to hover around the city. Xie Tian could already see that the two planes were four-engine propellers, which looked very much like military Y-8 transport planes. The plane began to throw white paper sheets over the city, and dense white paper sheets were as snowed as the moonlight.

The huge roar of the plane flew over the heads of the two of them, and Zhao Ziye kept jumping up and shouting: "We are here! Help!"

Xie Tian said, "Stop calling, it's useless."

As expected, the plane ignored Zhao Ziye at all. It flew past the sky and flew to other places, but many of the pieces of paper thrown by the plane fell on the roof.

Xie Tian picked up one of them, and after seeing the text on it, Xie Tian was shocked!

Zhao Ziye thought he had seen hope of life, but the plane ignored her. In a disappointment, she approached Xie Tian and asked, "What are the words on these flyers?"

Xie Tian looked up, looked at her, and said, "We must leave within a week!"

"Why?" Zhao Ziye asked in confusion.

"You can see it yourself." Xie Tian handed the leaflet to Zhao Ziye. Zhao Ziye took advantage of the moonlight and became more and more frightened. After reading it, he asked blankly: "Fencheng?"

The content on the flyer is very simple, it is to burn the city. According to the flyer, a large number of zombies gathered in many cities in the south migrated northward due to food shortages, which brought great pressure to the defense of the three safe areas of Changsha, Nanchang and Shanghai. The military decided to carry out devastating air bombing on the fallen cities in the south, with the purpose of eliminating hundreds or even tens of millions of zombies entrenched in the dead city. The flyer also said that a week later, at about 12 noon on July 15, the military will send bombers to use solid gasoline bombs to launch a devastating blow to Yangcheng. At that time, the terrifying high temperature created by gasoline bombs alone will last for at least an hour. The purpose of the plane scattering leaflets is to inform the survivors in the city to evacuate before July 15.

In addition, the leaflet also has a simple route map from Yangcheng to Changsha and Nanchang, the two nearest safe areas, guiding survivors to go to these two safe areas.

"Why do you have to do this..." Zhao Ziye didn't understand and looked at Xie Tian and said, "Is this a little inhumane?"

Xie Tian smiled and said, "I think this decision is quite wise. Think about it, more than 85% of humans were infected with viruses and became zombies when the virus broke out. There are 1.4 billion people in the country. What is the concept of 85%? There are about 1.2 billion zombies in the country, and how many humans can survive? Most of the uninfected humans are turning into zombies' food at the first time when the outbreak begins, and a small number of them become zombies due to blood infection. In this way, there are even fewer living humans. If so many zombies are not used, when will they be killed?"

Zhao Ziye was silent, with two lines of tears slid across the corner of his eyes. Xie Tian patted her on the shoulder and comforted him: "The country must keep the last glimmer of hope, and abandon the pawns and protect the car to have the opportunity to overcome this difficulty. By then, the city can be rebuilt."

"I understand." Zhao Ziye nodded slightly, Xie Tian sighed and said, "Go back and rest. It's only seven days, and it's imminent. It seems that we need to speed up the time and prepare!"

Since I want to burn the city, it is undoubtedly a matter of seeking death to stay in the city to upgrade the Saiyans. Now I have used the Saiyans to find a suitable vehicle, a supermarket with a large amount of supplies, and a large number of weapons and equipment. The only thing I have to do is to improve the Volvo heavy truck as soon as possible. Since the rear bucket is to be used to store supplies, it is necessary to protect the upper part of the rear bucket. To weld the entire rear bucket, Xie Tian also needs a large amount of steel bars and other components. As long as the car is ready and carrying enough diesel, he and Zhao Ziye can get on the road with confidence.
