Chapter 224 - New neighbors?

Throughout the day, the water originally stored in the community and the frozen ice were basically transported to the underground parking lot next door. Wei Xuan went to the next door to check the situation in the evening after avoiding the embarrassment of the morning.

The whole floor of the underground parking lot has been remodeled by the zombies, and most of the rows of uniform and uniformly sized houses are filled with ice cubes. But because there are too many cold storage rooms, they have not been filled with these ice cubes until now.

In the morning, the zombie brothers at home were disposing and placing these ice cubes, and in the afternoon, they happily used all kinds of containers that were still intact and not broken by the ice cubes to fill the snow and collect clean accumulated ice. Snow. By the evening, the snow on the roofs of the community had been basically cleaned up by them.

Toss it again tomorrow, I guess the pots and pans at home will be filled again by hard-working zombie brothers, right?

Standing in front of the window, Wei Xuan looked around with satisfaction at the scenery in the neighborhood outside the window, then turned and walked towards the bed. He now has night vision ability, unless he is going to play games at night, there is no problem even if the lights in the room are not turned on at night.

A good night’s dream—By the way, I stopped Du Hang several times, who was trying to continue his shameless nightlife a few days ago. Wei Xuan felt extremely refreshed after waking up in the morning.

After waking up, I sighed how powerful the zombie’s body is (last night, I was still in such good spirits in the morning despite preventing someone from attacking me several times last night), Wei Xuan took Du Hang downstairs after washing up and eating some snowflakes, and gave the zombie brothers Schedule work today.

The snow on all the roofs in the community has been collected, and today it is time to collect the relatively clean snow on the ground and around the corners of the house. In addition, some younger brothers must be sent to collect the clean snow in the nearby communities, and the rest will work with themselves to heat the collected snow, purify the melted snow water, and put them into suitable containers for freezing. After being raised and stored, part of it fills the remaining space in the underground ice cellar, and part of it remains in the building for daily use.

After getting the new job, the younger brothers started to be busy with enthusiasm, and each of them exuded a happy mood and got busy in and out of the community.

After the heavy snowfall, the community where Wei Xuan lives is busy with the daily work of collecting snow and purifying snow water. The zombies within a radius of at least 1,000 meters from the community were all sleeping quietly under the heavy snow, as if they were covered with a layer of white quilts, enjoying the warm time of the long winter.

But within a radius of one thousand meters, all the zombies that can move freely in winter and do not hibernate are busy.

One by one, they happily scraped away the white snow on the ground, and dug holes with their bare hands on the muddy land that was not covered by asphalt. If there are sleeping corpses that are “sleeping” in the dug place, they will pull those guys away and dig a hole in the ground under them.

Those zombies who were pulled away will be dazed in a daze, until they find that the zombies who pulled them apart have dug up delicious food… Yes, they dug out delicious food from under their sleeping “beds”!

Then, after some in-depth exchanges that only the zombies can understand, there will be an extra younger brother beside the zombie who digs holes, learning along the way, and then digging holes by himself…

In urban areas, there are more and more zombies who are disturbed by digging pits and have to wake up in hibernation, because zombies also have their own different activity areas. Generally, the pits dug by one zombie will not be thick-skinned by other zombies. Go to other people’s pits to pick up snacks, so the scope of this digging pit will spread wider and wider, and the number of zombies forced to “wake up” from their deep sleep will increase.

Fortunately, the zombies need to replenish a limited number of snowflakes every day. As long as they dig deep enough to produce snowflakes and there is no rain to wash them away, these snowflakes will stay in place for a long time.

Some clever zombies will also hold a container picked up from nowhere to collect the snowflake crystals in these hard-earned pits (and of course the bonus dirt next to the snowflakes).

Under the heavy snow cover, the activities of these zombies are still very conspicuous, especially when some people have been living in relatively high places, as long as they look outside, they can see dark figures bending over and pawing in the snow appearance.

“Say, what are they doing?” One person frowned and looked at the zombies in and around the community who were bending over and pouting their buttocks, working hard in the snow pit.

The people nearby shook their heads again and again, with confused expressions on their faces. If they knew, they would not be human, they would be zombies!

“Are you looking for something?”

“Are you looking for zombies? Look, there are zombies crawling out of the snow in the place where they pulled over!”

“That’s right, isn’t it to dig out those zombies lying in the snow?”

“But why do the zombies dig up the zombies?”

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, not because they didn’t understand, but because the actions of the zombies were too puzzling.

“Huh? There’s some movement over there!” The people on the other side of the room suddenly yelled loudly, causing a group of people who were watching the Western view from the balcony window to run in the opposite direction: “What’s wrong??”

“That building, that is, didn’t someone live in that building a few days ago?” The person who was observing the situation in the opposite direction held a telescope in his hand and pointed to the same high-rise residential area in the distance.

The people in their base have lived in this community since the end of the world. Of course, there are also a small number of people who fled to the vicinity after the initial stage, and escaped after being assisted by people from high-level bases. I have lived here for a long time, although I still yearn for the various lives before the end of the world, yearn for the days when I can live freely outside, and occasionally imagine what kind of life those who escaped from the city will live in the base.

But after a long time, although they still imagined it, no one was willing to take the risk of leaving here and living in those unknown places. He has no intention of communicating with people from other bases or accepting new members.

Of course, if they could get some new information from outsiders, they would still be very willing, but they were asked to admit newcomers, but no one was willing to start.

Especially after some of them turned into zombies and were thrown down below, they were even more afraid that strangers would come here, and then slaughter all the zombies around the upper floors—old companions they couldn’t bear to kill, and How could those former companions who apparently still retained their memories be willing to let others kill them?

Therefore, a few days ago, when they accidentally discovered that there were lights on in a high-rise community not far away at night, they immediately realized that someone lived there!

Those people definitely didn’t live in that community from the beginning! They have been living here for three years, and they know very well whether there are other people living in the nearby high-rises and buildings.

After discovering that someone actually came to live near their own base, the members of the entire base instantly became alert. They carefully hung curtains on all the windows of the house facing the direction of the person, even the rooms in other directions, so as not to accidentally reveal the light in the room at night.

Fortunately, due to the shortage of energy in the post-apocalyptic world, they are usually reluctant to light candles. Although it is winter recently, they need to light a fire to keep warm, but most of the fire is stuffed in the homemade stove and there will be no light from the fire. After dark, they would try to rest as early as possible, unless those people had binoculars in their hands and had observed the situation in this high-level area specially, otherwise the possibility of being discovered by the other party was not too great.

That group of people was strange, and their identities were also very confusing. Although some people in the high-level base were curious and wanted to inquire about the situation with the other party, they gave up this approach after thinking about it-they were not sure that they could guarantee that the people on their side could go all the way without disturbing the zombies. There is no guarantee that those people will have the same good intentions as their own, and will not attack those who come to inquire about the news.

So in the past few days, they will send someone to keep an eye on that direction, in case there is any problem.

Now, there really is a situation there.

“What’s the situation?” A man snatched the right to use the telescope from the person in charge of the observation, but was surprised to see a scene that surprised him.

“What’s the matter, what’s the matter?” The people around asked quickly, and someone snatched the telescope from him again.

“Are they…arresting people??”

“No! Even if there is internal strife, how can you arrest people from the building?”

The person who had been in charge of monitoring snorted contemptuously: “Che, I saw the whole thing from the beginning to the end. You didn’t see it just now. Three people have been arrested from that building just now.”

“What’s going on, what’s going on?”

“Say it soon!”

After getting the news, the people who were resting near the building hurried over. Seeing that this guy was playing tricks, they almost slapped him on the head in a hurry.

The person in charge of monitoring said: “I don’t know too well, but I’m sure I saw the zombies outside entering the building, and then someone was caught out!” The window they observed was at a good angle, and they could see Go to the entrance of the inhabited building.

After hearing what the man said, everyone looked at each other again.

“Someone was caught by the zombies…but where are they going to take them?”

“Could it be that zombies went in to catch people and eat them?”

“No! After they were captured, there were no zombies on the street?”

“What’s the situation? What’s going on? Are those people who were captured still alive?”

Everyone was surprised again. They hadn’t seen the scene when those people entered the community at first, so they naturally didn’t know if the zombies on the street attacked them when they entered. But since it lights up a fire at night, it should be a living person?

Even without binoculars, they could roughly see someone coming out of the building in that neighborhood, and then it seemed that someone picked up a person, carried the person quickly and ran into the distance. Afterwards, one after another was picked up and flew away from the community…

After a long time, everyone looked at each other again: “What’s going on?”
