Chapter 189 People who fled
Dr. Yan shook his head and said, "I'm afraid there are more than that." With an army of zombies, wouldn't it be easy to conquer the world?
The image of Ming Xiche flashed through Yan Shaohui's mind, but he felt that Ming Xiche was not such a courageous person.
"Not necessarily. I think there is someone behind Ming Xiche who is controlling the overall situation." Yan Shaohui said with a frown.
"We are just guessing now, without any basis." Dr. Yan took the lab report from Yan Shaohui, "I will try to take out the microchips from the two zombies to see if there are any new discoveries."
"Okay, then I'll go first." Yan Shaohui also said goodbye and left.
……
In the following days, Yan Shaohui kept waiting for news from the laboratory, but in the end he only got a fruitless answer.
After much deliberation, Yan Shaohui finally decided to go to the Yagura base himself to find out what was going on.
But the Yagura base is now full of dangers, and no one could have expected how many zombies were waiting for them there. When Mu Xin knew that Yan Shaohui had such an adventurous idea, he disagreed a thousand times, saying that if he didn't take her with him, Yan Shaohui couldn't go alone to take risks.
Yan Shaohui thought that Mu Xin could help him manage the base if he stayed in the first base, but it was too dangerous for him to follow him for safety reasons.
Mu Xin refused to give in and said that there was someone following Yan Shaohui who could help, and that the base could be completely handed over to other people in the headquarters to manage and there would not be any major chaos.
However, Yan Shaohui refused to agree no matter what Mu Xin said. Because of this, Mu Xin and Yan Shaohui had a cold war for several days. Finally, it was Shang Junming, Qi Shanlang and Zhu Mengli who mediated and Yan Shaohui agreed to take Mu Xin to Yacang Base.
In order to conceal their tracks, the two drove a half-old off-road vehicle, disguised themselves as wandering survivors, and set out on the highway to Yagura Base.
Along the way, the two people were still sulking with each other because of their previous disagreement. They didn't speak, and the atmosphere in the car was quite depressing.
It was not until the highway was blocked by several orange roadblocks, making it impassable, that Yan Shaohui broke the dull awkwardness and spoke.
"We have to turn to the low-speed road. We can't drive on this road anymore." Yan Shaohui said thoughtfully while holding the steering wheel.
Mu Xin hummed and said nothing more.
Yan Shaohui glanced at Mu Xin, who tilted his head and refused to look at him, and could not help but raise his hand and patted the back of Mu Xin's head lightly.
"Still angry?"
"Yeah, angry." Mu Xin replied sullenly.
"I'm thinking about your safety, why are you still throwing a tantrum?" Yan Shaohui laughed.
Mu Xin curled her lips, "You are worried about my safety, can't I be worried about yours?"
Yan Shaohui sighed, "Then you can't be willful."
Mu Xin pulled Yan Shaohui's hand and bit his palm hard, "No matter what! You can't let me watch you walk away alone."
Yan Shaohui sucked in a breath of cold air and looked at the red tooth marks on the base of his right hand. "You were really cruel."
"Thank you." Mu Xin sneered, then pointed the way, "Brother, do you want to go?"
Yan Shaohui glared at Mu Xin secretly, then he made a sharp turn, turned the car around and started to accelerate. Mu Xin was thrown so hard that his head hurt.
Of course he knew that this was someone's malicious revenge on him, but who made him speak up in advance? There was nothing he could do. Mu Xin was angry and could only hold it in and wait for himself to digest it slowly.
After all, the person driving the car is not his own, and his life is now in the hands of the man holding the steering wheel.
The slightly old off-road vehicle was driving on the old road. The surrounding area was barren, which could be said to be a barren land.
Mu Xin looked at the surroundings and felt strange. "Strange, why is there not even a single plant?"
"Isn't it strange that there are no plants in a place like this?" Yan Shaohui raised his eyebrows.
"I've been to City C before, and there's a lot of grass and vegetation on this road. Even though it's the end of the world, there's no need for it to become a complete desert, right? There won't be a single blade of grass."
Yan Shaohui remembered that they had encountered abandoned roads before. Although they were also very desolate, they were not completely devoid of vegetation. Weeds could still be seen.
The only places that become barren lands like this are those where there are a lot of zombies. The vegetation there is either corroded and no longer grows, or it is transformed into zombie-like plants.
Yan Shaohui and Mu Xin looked at each other and felt a little uneasy, thinking that things seemed to be getting more and more complicated.
The car went farther and farther away, but some people who looked like they were fleeing gradually appeared along the way.
"Where did these people come from?" Mu Xin looked at those pale and skinny people who seemed to be fleeing from famine and asked Yan Shaohui beside him.
"Looking at the direction, the most likely place is the Yagura base." A hint of deep thought flashed across Yan Shaohui's eyes.
"Why are all the people in their base running out? And they all look so terrified." Mu Xin looked carefully at the facial expressions of those who passed by them and said in a strange tone.
"The only reason they ran out of the base, risking the danger of encountering zombies, was that there was something more terrifying than zombies in the Yagura base."
As they met more and more people, their car drove slower and slower, almost at a snail's pace.
Finally, a teenager stopped them, and Yan Shaohui frowned and stopped the car.
