Meng Feng parked the car in the snow-covered birch forest. The four people in the car had not closed their eyes for more than 48 hours and could no longer hold on.

In the front row, Meng Feng and Liu Yan were clinging to each other and covering each other with a coat.

Zhang Min was lying on the back seat, resting on Cassia's thigh. Cassia leaned against the car window, all the windows were rolled up, the heater was turned on, and he fell asleep drowsily.

No one has the strength to be on duty. After a full ten hours of sleep, Cassia woke up first and found a zombie outside.

It was already bright, and the zombie was lying on the outside of the car window, frozen to death. Its eyes stared straight at the person in the car, maintaining the posture of opening the window.

Cassia stretched out a finger and moved to the left.

The zombie opened its mouth, and its cloudy eyes moved to the left.

Cassia's finger moved to the right.

The zombie's eyes moved to the right.

Cassia fingers stuck in the middle.

Zombies became eyes.

Cassia's fingers were side by side, and when they were about to separate, Meng Feng also woke up.

"Dear, teasing zombies is not a good kiss." Meng Feng yawned.

Everyone in the car woke up.

Liu Yan sat up wearily, looked back at the zombie, and said, "Most parts of it are frozen, but its mind is still awake."

"Well." Zhang Min pulled his legs upright with difficulty, took a deep breath, and frowned: "Have basic intelligence, what do you think their brains are thinking?"

Meng Feng shrugged and said: "Who knows, zombie heart, seabed needle."

He started the car, squeezed the zombie against a tree trunk, made funny noises, and drove up the road, leaving.

Liu Yan divided some food, opened a box of cold canned beef, put some chili sauce on the steamed buns that Yu Mom had steamed three days ago, and started to eat breakfast.

That was the material reserve that Meng Feng brought in the car before he went out for patrol. Zhang Min said, "How much food do you have?"

Liu Yan: "Four days of food reserves."

Zhang Min said consciously, "I can eat less."

Meng Feng and Liu Yan glanced at Zhang Min at the same time and were quite satisfied with his performance.

"I didn't plan to drive you out of the car." Liu Yan said sincerely: "But you are very funny."

Meng Feng held the steering wheel, whistled, and imitated Lin Musen's tone vividly: "I like interesting people the most, young man, work hard! Brother Sen will cultivate you!"

There was laughter in the car.

"Where are we going now? Go back and have a look?" Meng Feng parked his car at the fork in the road. Zombies crossed the border, no grass grew, and there were messy footprints everywhere. There were also a few zombies frozen in the wilderness on the road.

Liu Yan said: "It's not very safe, there should be some left... Besides, the food has been taken away by the team, what are we going to do when we go back?"

Meng Feng said: "Maybe I can find some leftovers... Forget it."

He also doesn't feel safe, especially when he's out of ammunition - it's really out of ammunition and food.

Zhang Min: "Can you contact the teammates in the team?"

Liu Yan shook his head: "If you don't have a communicator, even if you have one, it's impossible to get in touch if you're too far away."

Zhang Min unfolded the map and said, "Then... eh, let's play the brain teaser game of 'Where have you been'..."

Meng Feng and Liu Yan said in unison: "We are not your sons! Go and play with Cassia!"

Zhang Min laughed, and Liu Yan said, "I have an idea to go to town to supply supplies."

He turned a cassette over, stuffed it into the old-fashioned radio in front of the car, and the Beatles' yellow surbmarine blared, then pulled the car off the fork and headed west, twenty miles away, to a village they had swept up.

Arriving at the village and town soon after, his eyes were in a mess, still maintaining the scene that they had been there before. Meng Feng changed his ak and went down to inspect again. Liu Yan said, "Look for the box that was placed in the dwelling."

Several crows were parked on the eaves, and mice were running on the icy ground.

A little mouse squatted in front of the headshot zombie, picking up food in the ruins.

"Look." Liu Yan said, "Rats don't touch corpses."

Zhang Min got out of the car, put his left hand on Cassia, and opened his pants chain with the other to pee: "Indeed, crows are not interested in them, shouldn't scavengers eat corpses? Baby, help Dad to get it, just hold it... ...don't shush, you can pee."

Liu Yan stayed in the car, shook his head in confusion, and said, "I don't know, maybe they know that these can't be eaten? Animals have a very keen intuition, and their ability to detect danger is higher than that of humans."

Zhang Min nodded slowly: "That's fine, at least the human companions won't be infected. Baby, don't play, don't hold it, it's hard... Dad will get caught when he pulls his pants. Go away! You little bitch, eh?"

In fact, until now, the only infected species on Earth are humans.

Meng Feng went out for ten minutes, and finally brought a large box of food.

Non-staple food, canned food, dry food, all kinds of fresh food in small grocery stores in copycat packaging.

"Dear, come and eat preservatives, dear." Meng Feng threw a packet of chicken feet to Cassia.

"Ah, this is good." Jue Ming said.

Liu Yan smiled and said, "Some of the things I hid when we came last time."

"You made up your mind at that time?" Zhang Min said.

Liu Yan shrugged and said, "No, I just think that in case of falling out with Lin Musen one day, at least there are multiple ways to go back, so that we can last a few more days in the wind and snow."

"Emperor Calm, you can play the sharp turn now." Meng Feng said to Jue Ming in a serious way.

Cassia thought for a while and said, "Go...here." Then he gestured on the map.

"There is the high sea." Liu Yan said: "How on earth did you survive? Forget it, let me come..."

Cassia: "I just turned the wrong page... Well, I found it, where is it?"

Meng Feng glanced at it: "Okay, go north along the road, I hope everything goes well."

"Our oil can still run 900 kilometers." Liu Yan said: "It's best to find them before they run out, or at least find some gasoline."

After two hours:

Zhang Min put one hand on Cassia's shoulder and hummed along with the music on the old tape recorder, flickering.

"That's right." Liu Yan suddenly remembered the drug addict actress and said, "Zhang Min, your idol came a few days ago."

Zhang Min said, "What?"

Liu Yan told Tang Yixiao's story once, Meng Feng and Zhang Min were dumbfounded at the same time.

Meng Feng said: "She is also my idol!"

Liu Yan glanced at Meng Feng with contempt and indifference, and said:

"Oh."

Zhang Min said, "Why didn't you help me find her autograph? My God! If I had known, I wouldn't have gone on patrol!"

Meng Feng said angrily: "Me too! Liu Yan! Why didn't you ask her to sign!"

Liu Yan had a helpless and boring expression on his face.

"Yes." Liu Yan said.

Zhang Min: "How is she? Is the real person the same as in the movie?"

Jue Ming said blankly: "What are you talking about?"

Meng Feng said excitedly: "Liu Yan, you are not being kind! The brothers both like her, so you just let her go?!"

Liu Yan: "..."

Meng Feng: "How tall is she? Is it the same as the one uploaded on the Internet?"

Zhang Min: "What did Lin Musen do to her? Did she talk about her divorce?"

Liu Yan finally couldn't bear it any longer: "She was taken away by Lin Musen, and now she should be chased by a large group of zombies, shall we go and save her?"

Meng Feng immediately said: "Forget it, it's too dangerous to drag your family with you. Brother Sen will protect her."

Zhang Min: "Well, it's not worth it, I just want an autograph, I can't take my life. Meng Feng is right, Brother Sen will protect her."

Liu Yan: "..."

Cassia: "???"

Liu Yan: "She's your idol! The idol is chased by zombies, but she doesn't care?! Do you have such fans?!"

Meng Feng: "Hey—you don't understand this kind of mood—"

Zhang Min: "That's right, when I was a soldier, all the brothers in the company liked her..."

Liu Yan really wanted to pick up the ak and give it to each of them.

In the next full hour, Meng Feng and Zhang Min began to have a long conversation about the actress, from her famous works to the award-winning works at the Berlin Film Festival, and even the gossip that just debuted. didn't let it go, and the talk was in full swing, and it was a joy.

Finally they stopped in the middle of the road, in front of a destroyed armored vehicle.

The conversation between Meng Feng and Zhang Min about the actress came to an abrupt end.

A huge footprint sank deep into the middle of the road, stomping the front half of the simple armored vehicle into a discus.

Guns were scattered all over the floor, and there were many trampled zombies around. The two wheels at the rear of the armored personnel carrier are tilted forward, and the smaller half of the body remains intact. Liu Yan got out of the car to inspect the body of the car and the wreckage of the armored car, and said, "Lin Musen ran in this car."

"There's more than one giant like that." Zhang Min speculated, "Lin Musen is really unlucky."

Liu Yan opened a lid under the car body and glanced at it, and laughed: "Not only is he unlucky, but he is also stupid. He doesn't know how to use this car at all... Look here."

There is an iron box under the body with two circular openings on the box.

Meng Feng said: "The entire front of the car and the engine were flattened, and there was no explosion."

Liu Yan said: "Because I specially designed the spare fuel tank under the car body, once the zombies chase, the person on the car body can unscrew the fuel tank cap, and the gasoline will be poured on the ground, pour it all the way, and let go part of it as appropriate. Gasoline, finally... light a fire, and the zombies on the road can be easily dealt with."

Liu Yan walked around to the car and said, "It's a pity that the flamethrower didn't come in handy either."

Zhang Min stuck his head out of the car and looked out, Meng Feng was standing beside the crushed front of the car, with one of Tang Yixiao's high heels thrown on the ground.

Meng Feng: "..."

Zhang Min: "..."

Liu Yan: "You can pick it up as a souvenir. It should be worth more than an autograph. There is only one shoe, how do you divide it? Do you want to stop looking for it?"

Meng Feng consciously changed the topic: "Where's Lin Musen? He ran away again? What a fate."

Zhang Min watched for a while, controlled the accelerator and brake with one foot to reverse the car, and pushed the jeep against the wreckage of the armored car.

"I Have a Scroll of Ghosts and Gods"

Meng Feng lifted the iron cover and found two bloody feet, unable to recognize who they belonged to.

They unloaded the gas tank from the car, strapped it to the back of the Jeep's spare tire, and drove off.

November 22, 2012.

Today is the fifth day after the shelter was destroyed by zombies. I lost my diary, and temporarily borrowed the Korean goods of Cassia to record. The pictures are drawn by him.

One month's food, 2,000 kilometers of gasoline, a spare tire, and three and a half people, we set foot on the road north.

The retreating buddies haven't heard a word, and I'm starting to miss them a bit. (a bunch of sketches of little people holding hands)

This year's winter came earlier and colder than usual. It was a real icy world. The world was deserted and there was no trace of human beings. Those villages and buildings were all covered with a thick layer of snow. Reminds me of the last ice age before humans appeared.

Occasionally, one or two small sparrows foraging appeared in the white snow, and Cassia would feed them with biscuit crumbs when they got off the bus to rest.

We saw a street sign with an arrow on it, which should be the direction of the government's evacuation. After a brief discussion, everyone (except Cassia) unanimously decided to go towards the arrow pointing north.

These days, we were driving on National Highway 108, the life detector did not respond, only the zombies were frozen in the wilderness like ice sculptures. The radio had no signal, and the street signs were covered with a thick layer of ice.

In this world, are there any survivors besides us? The white snow, the endless national road, and the silence like death everywhere. The Beatles' tape was listened to hundreds of times over and over again by Meng Feng, and finally the magnetic strip was sticking to it.

Fifteen consecutive days passed, and we entered Xi'an. The whole city was covered in frost, and East Chang'an Avenue was looted. Fortunately, we can still find food in the city. We changed to a bigger car and found enough resources in convenience stores, chemical stores, hardware stores, pharmacies, Wal-Mart and Carrefour warehouses.

The arrow on the street sign can no longer be found, and it is estimated that the end of the road is the occupied Xi'an.

Meng Feng suggested that we live in the city for a while, but he finally rejected the proposal. Because there are thousands of zombies in the sewers, they are actually underground to keep out the cold.

Lintong County, the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang is frozen for thousands of miles.

This is not right.

It's not like winter in the north, what the hell is going on? This weather is so abnormal.

I even suspect that everyone on earth is dead, the empty sky, the earth, the plains... only the four of us are driving in circles between heaven and earth.

We left Lintong and continued north.

On December 7, a plane was finally seen across the sky.

"Airplane!" Meng Feng roared.

After slamming on the brakes, Meng Feng quickly stepped onto the roof of the car, waving his hands crossed, and shouted: "Hey!"

Meng Feng took off his jacket and waved towards the sky. Liu Yan put on a signal flare and fired a shot into the sky. The green light flew into the air, and then drew an arc and landed on the snow.

(Simple strokes of the plane) On December 8, we waited for a day at the place where the plane appeared. Meng Feng stepped on the word sos in the snow, and a fire started in the middle.

There were no further signs of search and rescue.

Is it a reconnaissance plane? bomber? A transport plane carrying paratroopers or supplies?

In any case, as long as there are still people alive, there is always hope.

The snow is getting bigger and bigger, and it seems that there is a cold current heading south. There is no weather forecast, and life-saving is the most important thing.

We walked leeward along the southern foot of Liupan Mountain, and at the same time saw an arrow on a frozen road sign.

When we were about to drive over to check carefully, the wind and snow trapped the car. The wind was so strong that the sign was scraped away, so we had to abandon the car and walk.

Zhang Min recovered very quickly and was able to walk on crutches. Meng Feng marked the parking place of the car and led us to the high ground, looking for a cave sheltered from the wind.

On December 21st, another wave of cold currents from the south passed, and the weather turned fine. We came out of the cave, packed our equipment, and continued to drive north. The food can last for nearly two months, and eating a little can last until the spring. But I don't know why, I think spring might never come.

That was just a hunch.

Until we saw the 30-meter-high broadcasting tower on the top of the snow-covered mountain.

"Liu Yan! Look here!" Meng Feng said.

He shoveled the snow away, and there were traces of a fire under the tower. Liu Yan frowned, squatted down and pushed away the snow and ice with his hands. They almost turned over the surrounding snow and found a damp cigarette butt, a pine branch that was half-burned and extinguished, and a piece of rope.

"Paratrooper rope." Zhang Min said, "Where did the paratroopers come from?"

They stood on the top of the mountain and looked down. On the other side of the cloud and the mountain, a dim red light of the evening was shining.

"This is a signal tower for radio broadcasting." Liu Yan said: "Caesar! Take out the radio!"

Cassia, wearing a thick woolen cap and covering his ears with earplugs, stood under the signal tower, pulled out the long antenna and pointed it towards the top of the tower, and turned the knob to the far left and then to the far right.

Always be quiet.

"Climb up and take a look?" Meng Feng said: "Point the antenna a little bit, I think it touches the sharp point on the tower..."

"I can't stand your point the most, Meng Feng." Liu Yan said helplessly: "Is it a waste of your time to read the manual before using something?"

Meng Feng: "My dad is always like this. When walking, the antenna needs to..."

Liu Yan: "What you and your father think is wrong here. We are already standing under the signal tower. If it has no signal, it has no signal! It has nothing to do with where you point it! You can even hang Cassia on this tower. On the top of the signal tower, he can't receive any signal!"

Meng Feng was furious: "Your grandmother is not much better, Liu Yan! When I went to your house before, your grandmother didn't even know how to use the remote control, so she just shot the TV! Can you change the channel?! Look?"

Liu Yan: "Enough!"

Zhang Min fell to the side of the road with laughter. Jue Ming didn't hear what they were saying at all. He was still immersed in his alien signal and followed Liu Yan with his radio in his arms.

Meng Feng went back and drove the car over, saying, "Where are you going now?"

Liu Yan: "I don't know, ask your dad's radio to go kiss."

Meng Feng drove the car and said, "Then... look along the foot of the mountain. Hey, baby, look, there are two snowmen there?"

Liu Yan didn't look, Meng Feng patted his face and said, "Turn your head and look there."

There were two piles of snow in the wilderness.

Zhang Min said, "It's natural."

Meng Feng: "Well, what is the principle of physics? Baby, explain it."

The car stopped, Cassia looked around curiously, and then got out of the car and walked staggeringly. There seemed to be something covered under the snow, and Cassia pushed aside the snow on it and found a long, hard object and pulled it out.

Pull out a carrot.

Cassia: "?"

Meng Feng was dumbfounded.

Three seconds later, Liu Yan realized something, rushed into the car, pressed Meng Feng's hand to the horn, and several loud horns spread far and wide in the snow.

Meng Feng pulled out his whistle in the glove box and blew his breath.

At the back of the foot of the mountain, a child stepped on the snow.

"Team... Captain!" The little fat man shouted immediately when he saw Cassia. "Captain Jue Ming!"

Meng Feng took a deep breath and took Liu Yan's hand to get out of the car. The little fat man shouted "Ah-", as if he had seen a ghost, he turned around and ran away.

"Wait!" Liu Yan shouted, "Where are you going! Stop!"

The little fat man fell in the snow and ran without a shadow. They got into the car and raised the snowflakes to catch up. They went around the bottom of the tree-root-like mountains that lay across the snow. Suddenly, in front of them, there was a bright light. A sprawling farm at the foot of the mountain.

The little fat man ran out with a group of people, each shouting loudly, Liu Yan stopped and rushed forward, shouting and hugging the survivors.

On December 22, 2012, we finally found our lost partners, who left arrows and words on their way out of the shelter - it turned out to be Hu Jue's idea.

Then Wen Qiege took everyone around Xi'an to the north and entered the southern area of ​​Ningxia. At the junction of the two provinces, we saw a tall signal tower. Like us, it faced east along the leeward of the foothills and turned to the north.

There is a road here, and at the end of the road is a farm with the words "Farmhouse" on the sign.

Hu Jue led his brothers who could fight to sweep away the ten zombies inside and buried them in the west of the farm.

It's not too big, but it's much better than our last home.

It is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the river to the east has been completely frozen.

A rural farmhouse resort...like a paradise.

In the days when we were away, the seventy-nine people took Hu Jue as their leader, and Wen Qiege, as the captain, took on the responsibility of protecting everyone. When Hu Jue handed back my diary, he told Meng Feng. In a word.

"Great, our boss is finally back."
