Chapter 9: Don't Chop, Stab!
Little Hang seemed to emerge from the previous scene, exclaiming in surprise: "Big bro, when did you grab that? I didn't even see it."
Without answering Li Hang's question, Li Yu seemed to hear something and raised his index finger to signal Little Hang to be quiet.
The surroundings instantly fell silent.
Listening carefully, the sound of sirens could be heard all around, occasionally interspersed with screams. Those screams were as if the people had seen something unbelievable, their voices shrill and hoarse.
The group exchanged glances and wordlessly got into the car.
The SUV quickly started up, and Li Yu drove them out of the city.
Passing by the supermarket from earlier, Li Yu saw two police officers still wandering there in the distance. The high beams illuminated two faces with vacant expressions, covered in black spots.
Li Yu's eyes narrowed slightly as he slammed on the brakes and stopped. Turning to Little Lüe in the passenger seat, he said: "Stay in the car and look after your mom. Don't get out."
Without time to explain further, he got out of the car. Little Lüe, who had just started university, was an 18-year-old youth full of vigor, but understandably panicked in this sudden change of events.
Little Lüe rolled down the window nervously and asked, "Cousin, what are you going to do?"
Seeing him roll down the window, Li Yu felt a surge of anger. After taking a deep breath, he suppressed his impatience and turned back to Little Lüe, saying: "Have you seen zombies in movies? Now, a zombie outbreak has occurred. You're a man now. Understand?"
Little Lüe saw the two zombies wandering in the distance and their terrifying faces, feeling numb with fear. But hearing Li Yu's words, he still summoned his courage and nodded vigorously.
"Don't open the window anymore. Don't open the door without my order. Got it?"
Seeing Li Yu's demeanor completely different from usual, Little Lüe nodded and rolled up the window.
Li Hang, following behind, also stopped when he saw Li Yu stop the car.
Just as he was about to get out, Li Yu saw him and hurriedly said: "Little Hang, don't get out of the car."
Li Hang grabbed a knife from the passenger seat and got out, ignoring the warning.
"Little Hang, what are you doing?!" As soon as the words left his mouth, Li Yu saw that the two zombified police officers were slowly approaching them. One was even right behind Li Hang.
"Cousin Hang, watch out behind you!" Little Lüe shouted from inside the car.
Li Yu sprinted over like a cheetah at an extremely fast speed.
Li Hang had just turned around when he saw a zombie in a police uniform behind him, less than a meter away.
Crack.
Li Yu swung his blade from the side, and blood sprayed.
Thud!
The zombie's head jerked up and then fell heavily to the ground!
Li Hang was stunned, having witnessed up close his big brother chopping off a head - or more accurately, a zombie's head.
Ah!
Li Hang let out a scream! The other zombie nearby also approached, less than 5 meters away.
Slap!
Li Yu gave Li Hang a slap that dazed him.
Then, ignoring Li Hang, he charged towards the zombie. Another slash, and another head flew off.
He quickly searched the zombie's police uniform, finding a gun with three bullets left.
He even found three more magazines!
It's worth noting that normally police on duty are only equipped with 5-7 bullets, so it seems the authorities were aware of the gravity of the situation and provided the police with more ammunition.
Li Yu found the same gun and three magazines on the other zombie police officer's uniform!
It's important to know that in the apocalypse, the most sought-after items are: food, weapons, and medicine!
Food and medicine had been stockpiled two months ago. Rice, flour, wheat, and other staples, even many long-lasting snacks had been hoarded.
Various medicines had also been stockpiled, including antibiotics, cold medicine, anti-inflammatory drugs, stomach medicine, and so on.
Weapons had actually been prepared too, but firearms were not available for purchase.
Now that there was an opportunity to acquire some, of course he had to seize it.
He remembered that when he first arrived, there should have been three zombie police officers, but now there were only two in front of him.
Keep looking! Opportunities like this are rare and fleeting.
He glanced at Li Hang, who had been slapped by him and was now looking at him pitifully, seemingly having come to his senses.
Li Yu looked Li Hang up and down, checking for any signs of zombie bites. Seeing none, he finally relaxed.
But a surge of anger welled up,
So he said: "I told you not to get out of the car, what the hell are you doing?"
Li Hang said a bit wronged: "I wanted to help you."
Looking at this little brother who had been mischievous since childhood, although occasionally disobedient, he had just gotten out of the car to help him! This was the apocalypse, where everyone was only thinking about saving themselves, who would still care about others?
Li Yu had even seen in the previous apocalypse before his rebirth, scumbags who pushed their wives towards zombies to escape.
A warm feeling suddenly welled up in his heart.
His tone instantly softened as he said, "Alright, it's time for you to get some training too." Thinking about it, although his little brother had always been bold, anyone would be dazed when facing zombies for the first time, so it was understandable that he froze up just now.
Li Yu himself hadn't done any better the first time he saw zombies in his previous life.
Li Hang, true to his naturally brave character, seemed to have been jolted awake by his brother's slap.
He looked at his older brother eagerly, as if saying "teach me."
Li Yu smiled and told him to grip the knife tighter, as it was quite sharp and he should be careful not to hurt himself.
He told Li Hang to follow behind him, and then they searched the surrounding area for that one zombie in a police uniform.
During this time, they encountered three more zombies, who appeared to be onlookers from the supermarket earlier.
Indeed, it's better to avoid crowds...
With one step, Li Yu quickly closed in, turned, and dispatched two zombies with two slashes.
He left the remaining one for Li Hang to kill.
Li Hang pumped himself up and shouted: "Let's go!"
The loud sound startled the zombie, causing it to pause for a moment.
Such a loud shout had confused the zombie.
"Damn it, you idiot, hurry up! Aunt and the others are still waiting!" Li Yu cursed.
Li Hang shouted "Let's go!" again and swung his knife down.
However, the blade got stuck halfway through the skull.
...
Li Hang probably thought Li Yu's clean decapitation looked cool, but he hadn't expected the skull to be so hard.
Watching the zombie with a knife stuck in its head still lunging forward.
Li Hang saw the zombie up close, its ugly and bloody face almost touching his own.
A foul stench hit him.
"Pull it out and stab!" Li Yu shouted.
Hearing Li Yu's instruction, Li Hang pulled hard, withdrew the knife, and stabbed forcefully at the zombie's head. A spray of blood spurted out.
His freshly cleaned face was now covered in blood, but the zombie instantly fell motionless.
His bright eyes were full of pride.
"Stop showing off and help me find a zombie in a police uniform," Li Yu said, unable to bear Li Hang's smug look.
Finally, they found this zombie in the storage room of the supermarket.
"Let me handle this," Li Hang said eagerly upon seeing the zombie, wanting to redeem himself from his previous failure.
However, he didn't expect that this zombie had already noticed them and was charging towards them, snarling and flailing its arms.
This zombie moved much faster than the previous ones, standing nearly 1.9 meters tall with explosively bulging arm muscles.
Li Hang rushed forward and stabbed the zombie in the chest, but it didn't stop the zombie's advance.
"Stab the head! Only the head works!" Li Yu shouted urgently from the side.
But in that instant, the zombie unleashed tremendous strength, throwing Li Hang, who was about to pull out his knife, to the side.
