Along the pnk id on the scaffolding, a group of people easily climbed up onto the overpass. Lin Tao found that this highway was actually nearing completion. Except for not yet being connected to the ring expressway, even the first yer of asphalt had been id. Standing on the bridge and looking into the distance, the bck highway, set against the surrounding yellow sand, was like a big belt lost in the desert, straight yet lonely.Scattered around were a rge number of fasteners and exposed steel bars. The surrounding scenery was monotonous and desote. What met the eye was either a tall sand dune or colpsed factories and groups of wandering zombies. Moreover, walking on the highway under the scorching sun was really a bad idea.After a while, those delicate young dies who were already in poor physical condition began to sigh. But they could only grit their teeth and lean on each other to move forward. Even though it was now the end of the world, girls with sunscreen in their bags still smeared it on their bodies as they walked, afraid that the cruel sun would damage their delicate skin.Pregnant women were undoubtedly the most likely to dehydrate and suffer from heatstroke among the group. And Zhang Xu, in order to fulfill his promise, really showed his sincerest care for Lu Jia. After walking about five or six kilometers, he saw rge amounts of sweat pouring down Lu Jia's head. Zhang Xu hurriedly found a small handcart for transporting cement and gravel by the roadside. Without allowing Lu Jia to decline, he put his backpack at the bottom, picked up Lu Jia and pced her on the handcart, then happily pushed her forward."Look over there, it seems to be an official gathering pce set up before!" Gao Chujiang stood on the edge of the highway and pointed to a refugee camp-like pce in the distance. There, a rge open space was enclosed by simple iron wire fences. Many blue tents were set up inside, but most of the tents had already been fttened and buried by the yellow sand. Only two or three were still standing crookedly. The conspicuous words "Earthquake Relief" written in white paint could be faintly seen on them.The official gathering pce was now deserted. Not even a few zombies could be seen. Zhang Xu pushed Lu Jia to Lin Tao's side and looked through the binocurs hanging around his neck at that pce. With one foot on the railing, he said somewhat regretfully, "Whoever came up with the idea of setting up the gathering pce in such a lousy pce? The line of sight is extremely narrow, and although it seems that there are not many people here, once the workers in those factories come out, there will be so many zombies that they can scare you to death. Look at the bloodstains on those tents. They must have been overrun by the zombie horde!""It's an official gathering pce. I guess they never expected the situation to develop to this point back then!" Hu Lao Da, carrying his gun, also came over and said with a sneer, "I've been to a gathering pce of this kind before. The official term is 'shelter'. Even at such a time, those damn officials still had the mood to invite journalists to write articles. At a rge gathering pce with tens of thousands of people, ter on, they actually caused the zombie virus to break out in the center of the gathering pce. Fortunately, I'm lucky. Otherwise, I would have been killed by them long ago!""Brother Lin, I see there are still several squad machine guns at that entrance. I just don't know if they can still be used!" Zhang Xu adjusted the scale of his binocurs to the maximum and stared hard at the sandbag pile in front of the gathering pce."Brother, don't even think about it. It has been exposed to wind and sun for more than a year. Even American guns can't be fired. Besides, even if the guns can be fired, nine out of ten bullets have probably become ineffective due to moisture!" Gao Chujiang patted Zhang Xu on the shoulder with a helpless expression and then said, "Let's go. This overpass leads directly to the river tunnel. If we're lucky enough, we might be able to find some useful firearms in the tunnel!""Sigh~ I really envy them. In our gathering pce, the only two squad machine guns have become divine weapons. Truly, once the machine guns come out, who can compete with them!" Zhang Xu shook his head dejectedly, turned around and threw his shabby binocurs into the handcart where Lu Jia was sitting. Then he carefully wrapped a silk scarf around Lu Jia's little head to prevent her from being sunburned by the scorching sun before continuing to push Lu Jia forward.The group walked slowly forward. The midday sun almost made everyone listless. After walking for about forty minutes, although they were on an overpass that hadn't been opened to traffic yet, Lin Tao and his group had already killed no less than twenty zombies. And judging from the clothes on the corpses, these zombies were not workers from the construction site but civilians who had turned into zombies.Gao Chujiang took Lin Tao's binocurs and looked around. The surrounding tall buildings were getting denser and more obvious. He said in a heavy voice, "We can't go any further. If we keep going, we'll enter the city. Look, there are more and more zombies below!""How far is it to the river tunnel from here?" Lin Tao frowned and looked down at the overpass. Indeed, the number of zombies, which had been sparse at first, had now become so common that it was like slowly entering a zombie paradise."See that colpsed big billboard? The entrance to the river tunnel is right below it!" Gao Chujiang pointed to a very obvious red billboard in the distance and then said, "Go down from this ramp and take the overpass on the right to get there. But you can see that overpass. It has been open to traffic for a long time and there are a lot of zombies on it!"Lin Tao thought for a moment and then said to the people behind him, "Bai Ru, give your gun to Zhang Xu. Jiao Jiao, give your gun to Lao Gao. Cao Mei, you and Michael are responsible for protecting the women here. The rest of the men, follow me!""Brother Lin, I... I don't need to go, do I?" Wang Peng, who had broken his ankle and was leaning on a crutch, looked at Lin Tao with a troubled face. His right foot was now swollen with a big blood blister. If it weren't for Lin Tao deliberately slowing down the pace to wait for him, with his cowardly nature, he probably wouldn't even be noticed if he fell behind."You stay here!" Lin Tao looked at Wang Peng expressionlessly, then turned and threw the rifle handed over by Bai Ru to Zhang Xu. Zhang Xu lowered his head to check it, then took Lu Jia out of the handcart and handed her to Jiang Yan and the others to take care of before jogging after Lin Tao.The four men carefully climbed over the obstacles set up on the ramp and stumbled down onto that old overpass. Generally speaking, there were not too many zombies on this overpass because it was almost completely filled with a rge number of cars, leaving almost no space for the zombies to move. Moreover, many cars had caught fire in rge areas after the accident at that time. The zombies were either burned to death or crowded and fell off the overpass.Lin Tao led the way and jumped onto a car that was burned beyond recognition. Since there was no road, they could only jump forward by stepping on the wreckage of the cars. Even though more than a year had passed since the disaster on this overpass, the air was still filled with a rge amount of burnt smell. And sometimes when you stepped down, you would stickily pick up an unidentifiable object, which was extremely disgusting."Wow! Look, it's Sister Ru!" Zhang Xu put up a sunshade in front of his forehead and pointed excitedly to an office building not far away. On the wall of the office building, a huge spray-painted advertisement almost occupied the entire wall. A graceful and beautiful dy with a smiling face was looking at everyone. Naturally, it was Bai Ru, Miss Bai, who had almost been deflowered by Lin Tao st night!"Why does she look more mature after wearing makeup? Her natural look is better!" Lin Tao also curiously walked forward two steps and stared at the huge advertisement of Bai Ru with a pleased smile."That's right. Sister Ru is naturally beautiful! Hehe~ I'll have her sign my back ter. Otherwise, it would be such a pity!" Zhang Xu grinned. But when he saw the content of the advertisement clearly, he asked in confusion, "Supreme Yongsheng Golf Course? Strangely, Sister Ru, such a big international star, actually endorsed such a small pce. I wonder what kind of person the boss is to be able to invite Sister Ru!""You can ask her yourself ter. Let's go. My head is so hot that I can fry eggs on it!" Hu Lao Da came over impatiently and jumped forward on the roofs of abandoned cars, making a "crackle crackle" sound.On the left side of the overpass, apart from a construction site, there was a rge building materials wholesale market adjacent to it. Standing on the bridge and looking at it from a distance, except for a few scattered trucks in the empty yard, it seemed very quiet. But if you carefully looked at a five-story building inside, the thousands of zombies walking back and forth inside would immediately make people's scalps tingle. And so many zombies also sent out a dangerous signal, clearly telling Lin Tao and his group that this pce was not just on the edge of the city!
