Section 48 Blackmail
Dong Guoping stood in the open space in front of the gas station, carefully observing the baseline of the wall at the drawings. He was wearing a grey work clothes covered with mud, and the cement blocks on his leather shoes had already dried up. Seeing Su Hao and Xinyan coming over, he nodded schematically and bet on the spread drawings again.
Su Hao looked around and looked very satisfied with his face: "Professionals are indeed irreplaceable. In the past, it was hard to imagine that so many tasks could be completed in two days. It seems that it will not take long to put them into use here."
Dong Guoping's eyes never left the drawings. He corrected the error in Su Hao's words: "If you are referring to a gas station, you can operate normally as long as the power is turned on. If the wall you are talking about will take at least four days to close. Of course, if the staff you sent can double, the time can be shortened by one third."
"oh?"
Su Hao was surprised by his words: "Since you doubled your manpower, why can't you save half of your time?"
"Concrete needs to be dried, and human factors cannot affect this process. To achieve the best solidification effect, the wall drying time must not be less than one month."
As he said that, Dong Guoping helped Fu's glasses that had slightly slid, turned around, raised his hand and pointed to the hundreds of empty glass bottles placed along the corner of the office building of the gas station, and asked curiously: "This is what Liao Qiu sent this morning. He said it was your order, and there are more bottles to be shipped tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. I don't quite understand, what's the use of you wanting these things?"
Su Hao did not answer this question head-on, and he turned his eyes to the tall wall in the distance: "Have you heard of the "Molotov cocktail"?"
Dong Guoping frowned slightly, and then suddenly realized: "Do you want to make your own incendiary bomb?"
Su Hao smiled and nodded: "In addition to these bottles, Liao Qiu will also transport some old tires found in the automobile trading market. The chemical materials company has a lot of magnesium powder. This homemade incendiary bomb is very powerful and very convenient to make. With that wall as a protection, the dense corpse group is actually not difficult to deal with."
Dong Guoping showed a deep thought expression on his face, and gradually became a little excited: "You are right. We can create such things in large quantities to burn all the zombies in the city. Although those monsters are huge, they will be reduced a little every day, and there will always be a time to kill them all."
Su Hao fell into silence without his words.
The sudden pause of conversation made Dong Guoping a little confused. Even Xinyan and Yang Lulu who were standing next to him didn't understand. They all looked at Su Hao, trying to find the answer from his expression and eyes.
After a long time, Su Hao finally raised his head and sighed: "Monsters... can't be killed."
Nine-year-old Yang Lulu immediately asked: "Why?"
"They will give birth and breed, just like we humans."
Su Hao's tone was more serious than ever, but the few people sounded absurd.
They have hunted zombies more than once, collecting silver bones and rotten hormones, in a sense, are actually equivalent to dissecting zombies. All team members, including Li Xiaomei, who goes out the least, are extremely familiar with zombies. This terrible creature that is mutated by humans is not of any gender at all. The genitals of many male zombies have long been rotten, or are torn, broken, and fall off during mutation and struggle. The uterus in female zombies either atrophy or rot into pus. They cannot produce sperm and eggs like humans, and give birth to offspring through normal mating, conception, fetal care, and childbirth.
"This is impossible———"
Dong Guoping shook his head repeatedly: "They have no reproductive organs and no physiological functions of conception. This sounds really ridiculous. They... they can't even do things between men and women, how can they...?"
“There are many things in this world that we can’t understand.”
Su Hao calmly interrupted him: "They have no physiological functions now, which does not mean they will not be in the future. They will not be able to give birth now, which does not mean they will never have similar abilities. Don't forget that the initial life on Earth relies on self-division to reproduce. Many biological authorities have argued that zombies violate the most basic biological laws. But what is the result? Things that cannot appear appeared, and the social order was instantly broken. The end of the world is not caused by volcanic eruptions, tsunamis and earthquakes, but it comes from viruses that cannot be seen with the naked eye. They will evolve, mutate, and become terrible monsters that no one can imagine."
Dong Guoping was shocked and his eyes were almost popping out of his eye sockets. He tried hard to calm down his throbbing heart and return his thinking to normal state. His voice trembled and said, "...Is what you said true?"
Su Hao's voice was not loud, but he had an unquestionable heaviness: "We once believed that zombies could never appear in this world. But they still appeared. The unknown does not mean that it is impossible. We are humans and can only look at problems from the perspective of human beings. There are many mysteries hidden outside our sight, which can only be explained by "impossible", "unscientific" and "unconforming common sense". In fact, like us, they are residents of this planet. They will eventually appear. No matter how denied in the past or how absurd reality is, we must face it."
Xinyan grabbed his arm, his eyes full of worry: "What should we do?"
Su Hao's face was covered with a firm and fierce light: "Just like dealing with zombies, kill them as many as possible————"
..
As night falls, a slender crescent moon appears in the sky. It is like a girl's Emei, sexy and full of temptation.
Lu Tao sat on the dusty sofa, passing through the glass-free window, silently staring at the cold world outside.
This is a residential building with 26-storey high-rise buildings. In a city where land prices are soaring, these high-rise apartments built a few years ago have long been overcrowded. Now, they have become a place for hundreds of survivors.
This room belongs to Lu Tao. He took the furniture in the living room aside, got a few bricks from the downstairs, and built a simple earth stove in the center of the living room. In addition to the bed, wooden furniture such as cabinets and closets were all split into pieces with an axe. These particleboards and wood chip boards are difficult to ignite, but they are very resistant to burning.
Lu Tao used all the kitchen utensils of the original owner of the house. Water, electricity and gas had long been cut off, and the essential daily water could only be carried up from the well downstairs with a bucket. The process was very tiring, and no one wanted to live to the terrible height of the twenty-sixth floor. Therefore, when the building was initially occupied, the survivors only cleaned the rooms below the eighth floor. They locked the stairs leading to the ninth floor with iron bars, and placed a large number of rooms from each room at the entrance of the stairs.
The heavy objects found in it. At such a close distance, the zombies upstairs could certainly smell the humans downstairs. They had been crowded at the other end of the iron fence and furniture, howling tirelessly, opening their mouths and gnawing on the hard metal railings like mice... This useless tenacity lasted for several months. The only gain of the strong-willed zombies was to chew off the patent skin on the surface of the iron fence, leaving behind clearly visible tooth marks.
The flames in the earthen stove were not too strong. The pot on the stove contained rice and water, but they were not boiled.
The rice bag has a sign of "Rice Flower Scent" printed on the surface, which is also a relic of the original owner of the house.
When Lu Tao broke into the room, the mutated man was lying on a female corpse and biting wildly. Next to it was a child who was eaten only one-third of the time. He was very young, probably only about six years old. The abdomen of the zombie was bulging high, like a blowing ball. It wanted to open his mouth and bite Lu Tao's throat, but was held by the angry intruder, held his thigh and threw it directly from the balcony.
The moon outside the window was gradually blocked by the clouds. Lu Tao withdrew his gaze, picked up the knife and wooden stick next to the sofa, and cut it without saying a word in the swaying flames.
He collected some mops, and the wooden handle was sawed into three sections. After the stick of this length was sharpened, it was a very practical melee weapon.
Lu Tao is a very diligent person—beside the wall are two bulging backpacks filled with various convenience foods collected from the outside. Double portions of the flashlight and battery are prepared, two sharp kitchen knives under the mattress, and a thick, long and strong hemp rope is tied firmly to the bed legs. In an emergency, you can throw it out of the balcony at any time and escape from it.
The experiences of the past few months are like nightmares. He escaped from death and did not want to become the flesh in the mouth of a zombie. No one knows what will happen in the future. There is no safety in the surrounding environment at all, and he must be prepared.
The porridge finally boiled and emitted a faint fragrance in the room.
Lu Tao stood up from the sofa, walked into the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, took out a can of lard, scooped out half a spoon, walked back to the soil stove, and stirred it in the boiling pot. Then, he added salt and MSG, and a handful of shepherd's purse picked from the green belt downstairs.
He pulled out a washbasin from under the bed, lifted up the bamboo basket covered with dust, and took out two pairs of bakery as big as a palm.
This is the cake made the day before yesterday—there is no yeast powder. In order to save water, Lu Tao could only add salt and oil to the kneaded noodles and bake it on the side of the pot. The cake is very dry and has almost no moisture, but it can be stored for a long time and will not deteriorate.
Just as he was about to scoop porridge from the pot, a swelling feeling came from his lower abdomen. Lu Tao smiled bitterly and shook his head, took out a bundle of plastic garbage bags from the head of the bed, tore off one, took off his pants and put his genitals into the open pocket, and shot out a thick yellow urine.
With the ease after urinating, he quickly put the plastic bag together, circled it flexibly, walked to the balcony, aimed at the dark night, and threw it out heavily.
Without water, the bathroom will naturally lose its function. Every time I go out, Lu Tao will collect some plastic bags in the store and use this kind of thing that is said to not decompose naturally for hundreds of years to solve the daily excretion problem.
He grabbed the bread with his hand that had just touched his genitals and took a hard bite.
Lu Tao considers himself a person with a cleanliness obsession.
In the past, he had to wash his hands carefully with cleaning fluid before he could eat. Otherwise, he would feel disgusted all day long.
Now..
"Ho!Ho----"
There was a knock on the door outside.
A hint of boredom appeared on Lu Tao's face.
He shook his head silently, put down the bowl, stuffed the dough basin under the bed, covered the pot of porridge, put it in the corner of the balcony, and blocked it with a broken chair... After doing all this, he let out a long sigh and stood up and opened the door.
When he broke into the room, the door was open. Lu Tao found the complete set of keys for the inside and outside doors from the owner's body.
When I opened the door, there was a woman in her thirties and a fat woman standing outside.
She was wearing a nearly transparent gauze pajama, with thin shiny metal chains tied around her waist, black net stockings wrapped around her legs, and the thin black thong edges exposed thick hair. Although it is summer, such dress is too exposed. Because she is taller than the woman outside, from Lu Tao's perspective, her entire front is almost naked.
"Little handsome guy! Can you borrow some fire from you?"
The woman raised her feet wearing ten-centimeter high heels and reached into the door frame without any hesitation. She boldly approached Lu Tao and rubbed her plump and slightly upturned buttocks on the other side. This exaggerated movement made her legs split, revealing her curly pubic hair, and exuded a strong stench that had not been cleaned for a long time.
This woman's name is Li Jie.
She joined the team a few days later than Lu Tao. Several men who went out to collect food discovered her. The clothes she wore were very expensive and gold and silver jewelry. It is said that a strong man in the team that night \/strong\/traitors\/sexuals in her team. Lu Tao was not very clear about the specific situation. After all, there were many rooms in this building, and no one knew what happened when they closed the door. However, since then, Li Jie became very slutty. She never went out to look for food, nor was she willing to go downstairs to get water. She walked back and forth between the men, changing food by sleeping and playing.
Li Jie had knocked on Lu Tao's door before.
I don't know if this woman has been mentally stimulated. If the other party insists on not opening, she will keep standing at the door and knocking until dawn, or even bringing things to pieces. This way of making trouble and rogue is very effective. People who are unbearable can only open the door and give her some food to exchange for peace. There are also many strong men who are full and have nothing to do willing to let her into the house, press it on the bed to get what they need.
She has a plump body and very white skin, which is attractive enough to most men.
However, Lu Tao had no interest in her at all.
He stared coldly at the coquettish middle-aged woman, took out a small bag of cookies that had been prepared from her pocket and handed them over.
Li Jie took the biscuits, but she had no intention of turning around and leaving.
She sucked her nose hard, and obviously smelled the aroma of the porridge that was floating from the house. For those who had been filling their stomachs with convenience foods such as biscuits and bread for a long time, the smell was as irresistible as a *** in front of an addict.
“I smelled it…”
The woman cast a charming look, she stretched out her tongue and turned her lips around, reached her hand to Lu Tao's crotch, gently stroked it, and whispered in a very seductive voice: "What are you cooking? Give me one, okay?"
If it were the past, Lu Tao wouldn't mind putting out a bowl of porridge from the house and giving it to this woman.
But now... it's not that he is cold-hearted, but that this woman comes to ask for it in this way too many times, and she comes to knock on the door almost every day. She has a wink and will never take the initiative to provoke those irritable and strong men, but treats people with mild temperament like Lu Tao as targets for frequent harassment.
Li Jie herself is also very clear------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Compared with the two, Li Jie naturally visited her home more and more times.
Lu Tao looked at her coldly and prepared to close the door with his backhand.
"Tsk tsk tsk! Don't be so cruel!"
The woman flashed into the door frame with a quick eye and quick hand, blocking the closed door panel. She was quite angry and said in a coquettish voice: "Give me some, just a little, okay?"
Lu Tao looked at her, and his face gradually showed anger: "You have hands and feet, why do you have to do this? If you are afraid of those monsters, I believe many people are willing to bring you with you when you go out. You can live a better life, rather than finding food from a man's crotch in this way. Look at Xiaoyan on the sixth floor, and then look at Sister Wang on the fourth floor. They are women like you, but they all live more freely than you."
"That's because they are not as beautiful as me, and they are not as fond of men as I do."
Li Jie smiled very slutically, and she unbuttoned the buttons in front of her pajamas, revealing two large and plump \/breasts, salivating her face, and half-pleasant and half-threateningly said: "I don't want much, a small bowl is enough. Do you have the heart to see me stay at the door all night? Maybe I should move the bed over and sleep naked in the open-air corridor will be very cool."
Lu Tao's face changed suddenly.
He was only twenty-four years old and had never had any experience in dealing with such a situation. If Li Jie was a zombie, Lu Tao would have pulled out a dagger and stabbed it into her eye socket without hesitation.
But the question is...is she a human being or a partner in the same team.
He didn't want any intimacy with this woman at all.
He was afraid that the other party would really sleep in front of his door naked.
Young people are always busy dealing with such things.
What's more, in Lu Tao's subconscious mind, he had already regarded the blind date girl as his wife who had not passed the door... At this moment, he felt angry, panicked, and felt that something indescribable was inflating in his heart. Words such as disgusting, lewd, and dirty flashed through his mind.
