Chapter 815 Searching for Supplies
Chapter 815 Searching for Supplies
At this time, there were not many zombies wandering on the street. After the white man killed a zombie, the three were about to move forward when they heard a voice behind them: "Hey, guys, are you survivors too?"
When the black adult man heard the sound, he subconsciously pulled out the revolver from his waist, turned around and was about to aim it at the person behind him, but he felt his wrist go numb and the revolver in his hand had already fallen into the hands of the other person.
"I'm sorry, I don't like people pointing guns at me. Also, I don't mean any harm, I just haven't seen a normal living person in a long time, so I came over to say hello to you. Let me introduce myself, I'm from China, Lu Cheng."
Having said that, Lu Cheng handed the small revolver back.
The black man saw that Lu Cheng had two pistols on his waist, but he did not pull them out and did not show any hostility, so he took the revolver and put it back on his waist: "Hello, my name is Morgan, and this is my son, Dwayne. This is Officer Rick."
Lu Cheng glanced at the somewhat weak white man and asked, "Were you shot before and haven't fully recovered yet?"
"Yes, how do you know?"
"I'm a doctor and I used to be a soldier. You have a good physique and your injuries are almost healed. But you must have been bedridden for a long time before, and your body has not fully recovered yet."
"You are absolutely right. It seems you are also an amazing doctor."
"Thank you. Where are you going this time? Do you need my help?"
Rick glanced at Lu Cheng's equipment and said, "Of course, if it doesn't bother you. My house is next door. I'm going to go back and get a bunch of keys, and then go to the police station to get some weapons."
Afterwards, Lu Cheng followed the three of them to Rick's house next door.
After entering the door, Rick said, "I checked yesterday. My wife and son should be alive. They left here."
Morgan at the side asked: "How do you know they are still alive?"
"There are fewer clothes at home. They belong to my wife and children. A few pieces for each person, enough for replacement."
"Could it be that a thief came here?"
"Even if there are thieves, they can't steal our family's photo albums, right?" Rick is an excellent policeman after all, and he has basic investigative and judgment abilities, otherwise he would not have become the leader of the protagonist group later.
Morgan couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this: "Exactly the same as my wife. When we evacuated, I was preparing all kinds of survival equipment, but she insisted on packing up the photo albums."
Morgan's son Dwayne couldn't help but say, "Maybe they are in Atlanta now."
Morgan added: "Yes, we received a broadcast before, saying that there is a survival base established by the military there, with plenty of food, water, and a hospital."
Rick suddenly perked up and was mentally ready to go look for his wife and children. He then turned aside, opened a locker, took out a bunch of keys from it, and called a few people to go to the police station.
After arriving at the police station, Rick took a few people to the bathroom of the police station because his body was stained with some dirty blood when he just killed the zombies.
Morgan couldn't help but remind him, "The water and electricity were cut off a month ago."
Rick casually turned on the shower head: "The police station has a separate propane water and electricity system, and there should be hot water. Look, isn't this it? Do you want to take a shower?"
"Of course!" Morgan and his son immediately took off their clothes and went to take a shower.
Lu Cheng shook his head: "You guys go wash up, I'll go out and look around to find some useful supplies."
Lu Cheng had just arrived in this world, so he was not dirty. In addition, he had already reached the realm of "breaking the void and seeing the indestructible gods". He could close the pores all over his body and basically did not sweat. Even if he did not take a shower for a long time, he would still be clean.
Afterwards, Lu Cheng searched the police station building and found some salt, some non-expired seasonings, flour, potatoes, etc. in the cafeteria on the first floor. He also found some daily necessities and several pistols.
As for the armory, Lu Cheng did not go there. Instead, he came to a nearby convenience store, used two table knives to kill the two zombies in the store, and then started the zero-yuan shopping mode.
Lu Cheng stored all the food and daily necessities such as salt, sugar, candy, chocolate, barreled water, bottled water, toilet paper, etc. into the storage space.
More than a month has passed since the zombie outbreak. Civilized society has completely ceased to function and production of all kinds of goods has stopped. Once some things have expired, it will be difficult to collect them in the future.
Thirty cubic meters of storage space is equivalent to a small room two meters high and fifteen square meters. It is neither big nor small, and can store a lot of supplies for survival.
Afterwards, Lu Cheng went to a grocery store similar to a hardware store and prepared to collect some steel nails as a reserve of hidden weapons.
With Lu Cheng's current strength, it is not difficult to kill these slow-moving zombies. Even with bare hands, he can easily kill a large group of zombies.
But these zombies were all rotten flesh and blood, and the stench was too strong. When he could kill them remotely, Lu Cheng didn't want to kill them at close range. This was also the main reason why Lu Cheng had always used a steak knife as a hidden weapon.
As for guns and firearms, the noise is too loud and can easily attract large numbers of zombies and expose the target.
Crossbows and bows are both good choices, but they have not been collected yet.
Whether it is a table knife, steel nails, or coins and pebbles that can be found everywhere, in Lu Cheng's hands, they can all become hidden weapons with power no less than a pistol, except that steel nails and table knives are more convenient to use.
After walking around the grocery store, Lu Cheng took away a large number of steel nails and table knives from the shelves, and also took out a set of car repair tools and some other useful things.
Afterwards, Lu Cheng went to a nearby store selling fresh grains and oils, and found some bags of Thai fragrant rice, various flours, oil, salt, seasonings, sugar, honey, etc.
Although this town is not too big, it has a wide variety of shops, including cafes, restaurants, bakeries, maternity and baby stores, etc.
Lu Cheng quickly shuttled through the town, collecting as many supplies as possible.
When they had collected almost everything, they quickly returned to the abandoned military base, found a military Hummer in good condition, put some daily necessities in the car, left some storage space empty, and loaded some more daily necessities.
In the home of a person who liked hunting, Lu Cheng also found two compound bows, two crossbows, and hundreds of bow and crossbow arrows.
Of course, it is also inevitable to find some scattered shotguns, pistols and other weapons.
Of course, I also collected some commonly used medicines, surgical instruments, etc. from the town’s pharmacy.
After Lu Cheng had packed up everything and the 30 cubic meter storage space was almost full, he stopped and drove the military Hummer to the door of the police station.
By this time, Rick and the Morgans had finished their showers and taken out the guns and ammunition from the armory.
Seeing Lu Cheng driving back, Rick said, "Lu, I'm going to Atlanta, and Morgan is going to stay here with Dwayne. What are your plans?"
"I am also going to Atlanta. In such an apocalypse, it is difficult to live alone. Only when a group of people unite together, find a suitable shelter, build a defense circle, and resume farming and production can they survive for a long time."
Rick nodded when he heard this: "You're right, Morgan, I think you need to reconsider it. It's really too dangerous for you to be here with Dwayne."
Morgan glanced into the distance and said, "I haven't thought about it yet. My wife is left here, and I should let her rest in peace, but I... let me wait a little longer."
Shortly after the outbreak, Morgan and his wife and children wanted to flee to Atlanta. When they arrived in King County, they stopped to rest. Unfortunately, his wife was bitten by a zombie and turned into a zombie. Morgan was reluctant to leave.
Lu Cheng gave some advice: "Morgan, I have to remind you. The risk for you and your son to stay is too great. You can't always be with your son. As for your wife, please be more open-minded. You still have a son. Your wife would definitely prefer you to live with your son rather than stop here and take risks."
Morgan was silent for a moment after hearing this: "Thank you, Lu. I will think about it carefully."
Seeing the other party like this, Lu Cheng didn't say anything more. Everyone's fate is the result of his own choice.
Although Lu Cheng wants to rebuild civilization, he will only bring those who are willing to follow him and believe in him.
