Strange Variations

Lu Ping fired a shot and told Shen Guangming, "The distance was too far and there was too much wild grass. I only blew up the motorcycle. However, that person is severely injured. With a high probability of encountering zombies on the small path, he probably won't make it."

"Hmm, doesn't matter. He's just one person that got away. I'll go report the situation to the commander."

Shen Guangming left the hotel and went to report what happened to Xiao Fan.

Xiao Fan didn't care too much either. He could guess with his toes who was related to this incident.

The biggest suspect was Chen Fudong, after all he and Feng Zhenxiang were relatives.

Moreover, Chen Fudong's prison base was over 200 kilometers away from here, so it would be very difficult for him to come over.

The nearest human settlement to Yanshan Town should be the wholesale market in Chishui County.

Xiao Fan didn't know whether Lu Wang from the wholesale market had a hand in this matter, but he was very suspicious in Xiao Fan's eyes.

He decided not to worry about this matter for the time being. Xiao Fan still had a lot of things to do.

Now that he had strong subordinates, he should eliminate all the remaining zombies in Yanshan Town and search for supplies here.

At the very least, he should expand his forces to a battalion.

Xiao Fan believed after raiding Yanshan Town, this goal would be achieved soon.

At noon, they stewed a lot of mutant beast meat in the canteen of the police station. Together with some vacuum-packed foods found in the supermarket, they made a delicious meal.

Xiao Fan ate with his father and sister. As for others, they didn't have this privilege.

After the meal, Shen Guangming began to lead people to the depths of Yanshan Town to clear out zombies.

Xiao Fan gave him the task to completely take over Yanshan Town within a week.

The other survivors were brought back by Xiao Zhenyuan to the second floor of the hotel to reunite with their fellow villagers, while the newly arrived students all lived in the police station.

It was still very crowded here, which made Xiao Fan increasingly want to leave this place to find a new foothold.

Sitting in the office of the police station on the third floor, this was the last room.

Xiao Fan took out a map he found and started carefully examining the surrounding terrain to find a suitable place to live.

************

On the other side of the clearing operations in Yanshan Town, Li Nanfeng was struggling to move forward on the country road.

The motorcycle explosion caused him serious injuries again, but the most serious one was still the injury on his arm from earlier.

One arm seemed to be fractured, then exploded by the motorcycle explosion again, and it started bleeding again.

Li Nanfeng didn't have any medicine on him and could only bandage it with his bloodstained clothes to get by for now.

Without the motorcycle, he could only rely on his own legs and walk step by step towards the wholesale market base.

The 70 kilometer distance was not considered far with convenient transportation, but now it was the apocalypse. Relying solely on his legs, plus his severely injured state, the distance seemed as long as the horizon.

Li Nanfeng could barely walk any further. He urgently needed some food.

But there was nothing to eat in the wild. He could only take the risk and go to a village.

After walking for some time, he finally saw a village.

Li Nanfeng walked in with his gun, gritting his teeth.

Just after entering the village, he encountered zombies.

More than a dozen zombies rushed over roaring. Moreover, their movements were not particularly slow either, seeming to have evolved to a certain degree.

Li Nanfeng could no longer run. He could only choose to shoot.

His superb marksmanship had greatly diminished at this moment.

After continuously shooting and killing many zombies, he was still approached by a zombie.

"Roar!"

The zombie pounced over and bit his injured arm.

Because blood was oozing out from there, the smell of blood most attracted zombies, so this place became the target of attack.

"Damn! I'll kill you!"

Li Nanfeng was out of bullets and could only keep hitting the attacking zombie’s head with his gun, and eventually smashed its head completely relying on his powerful willpower.

Looking at the now lifeless zombie, Li Nanfeng felt extremely sad.

It was over, all over!

He was bitten by a zombie. It wouldn't be long before he became a walking corpse like them.

Li Nanfeng didn't want such an ending. He found a kitchen knife in a nearby house.

"Xiao Fan! If I don't die this time, I will definitely not let you off!"

Holding the kitchen knife, he chopped off one of his arms alive!

Black and red blood kept flowing from his wound.

The black blood represented infection, while the red blood was normal. The mix of black and red showed that the infection was still relatively mild.

Li Nanfeng screamed in pain. He wanted to die immediately, but the desire to survive supported him. He found some painkillers from the house and took them. Then he wrapped some clean cloth over his wound.

He originally wanted to find some food, but the blood loss attracted zombies again.

In desperation, Li Nanfeng embarked on another escape journey, with a group of staggering zombies behind him.

Zombies don't get tired. To get food, they can keep walking. The now turtle-paced Li Nanfeng simply couldn’t shake them off.

After walking for some unknown time, Li Nanfeng finally couldn’t persist and collapsed into a ditch. The zombies behind finally caught up.

Li Nanfeng drank several mouthfuls of foul water in succession. At this moment he felt extremely terrible. His body seemed no longer his own. The pain in his arm also seemed to disappear. Even the hunger that had plagued him was gone. The only thing left was the approaching zombies right before his eyes.

Facing death, Li Nanfeng suddenly screamed in horror.

"Don't come over! Don't come over, don't eat me! I don't want to become one of you!"

"Stop! Stop right there!"

The despairing loud shout was the final struggle. But a miracle happened at this moment.

Those zombies that were right next to him actually stopped moving.

They stood there motionless like wooden stakes. Pairs of scarlet eyes still stared fixedly at Li Nanfeng, seeming to be waiting for his next words.

Li Nanfeng was stunned. What was going on?

He tried to crawl out of the gutter and said softly to the zombies, "Retreat."

These zombies immediately retreated clumsily.

Li Nanfeng was stunned again. He realized something unusual was happening.

He hurriedly turned around and lowered his head to look at the foul pool he was in.

When the water surface calmed down, he saw an ugly face!

A face almost exactly the same as those zombies!
