Chapter 24 The Farm
A "crack" sound is the sound of a collision between human upper teeth and lower teeth. A normal human, except for intentionality, rarely makes such a sound - because people only need to bite when eating, and what they eat is usually dead, so they rarely make such a bite.
But this sound appeared behind Li Qing's head. It was not a sound made by humans - it was made by zombies, the sound of upper and lower jaws hitting when zombies bite the living creatures. The reason for letting the zombies bite the empty space is that Li Qing avoided the attack from behind.
Darkness blinds people's eyes, but it is Li Qing's protective clothing. The twelve senses he has when he enters the space are not because his vision or hearing is much higher than that of normal people. In fact, his vision and hearing are only average. And the perception of more than twice the average person is mostly due to his alertness that is several times higher than that of normal people.
This alertness is caused by years of crime. This perception, which comes from vigilance, will not bring any help to a person's vision or hearing. It is just a comprehensive sensory judgment that is almost the sixth sense. This perception sounds mysterious, but it is everywhere in life. Old detectives are always easier to find the key to solving the case than new policemen, and on the battlefield, veterans will always avoid bullets than new recruits. It is not that why, but the survival rate is higher.
This is a judgment of the environment.
The environment where Li Qing committed crimes every time he chose this kind of weather.
Strong wind, heavy rain, dark night.
The black night sky can block people's sight, the howling wind can blind the hearing of the kidnapped, and the pouring rain can wash away all traces of his crime.
The moon is dark and the wind is high and the night is cloudy and rainy.
In such weather, Li Qing's alertness will naturally be improved to the extreme. When there is any movement behind him, he will immediately feel that before Lost is pounced on him, he will feel a cold wind in his head, avoiding Lost's attack, and then almost instinctively hit the zombie's ribs, causing the other party to slap in vain. After he hugged the other party's head with his back hand, twisted his body, and turned around and turned the zombie's head.
Another "crack" sound came out, but this sound was even more muffled and blocked by the flesh of the neck, which was the sound of a zombie's neck fracture.
"Zombies have begun to evolve." Turning around and seeing the zombie's flipped face, Li Qing said to the people around him, but due to the sound of wind and rain, only two or three people around him heard it.
This includes Shen Ruyi.
"Boss, it's dark and heavy rain, what should I do?" It was actually only three or four seconds since Li Qing was attacked and spoken. Shen Ruyi turned around and heard two "cracks", and saw Li Qing watching with a zombie's head. She was a little surprised and had no idea - after all, the storm is too heavy now.
"Keep going, the rain will not stop, and we will die if we don't complete the task in two days." Li Qing narrowed his eyes and let go of the zombie's head, wiped the rain on his face, patted Shen Ruyi's shoulder, and continued to move forward.
Seeing him keep moving forward, the rest of the team also followed.
Due to rainy nights, everyone's danger increased tenfold instantly. Everyone held their breath and squinted their eyes that were somewhat painfully washed by the rain. While walking, they alertly paid attention to everything around them. This way of walking is very troublesome.
After moving forward for more than two hours, the rainstorm became heavier and darker, and when the visibility dropped to three or four meters, the people walking not only felt troublesome—but also had difficulty.
The heavy rain caused the fields and wilderness to be very muddy, with wind on top and under the bottom

62 It was muddy and covered in his foot. Even if the journey was difficult, everyone could not slow down their walking speed, because according to the memory of the special forces, the gray lake on the map was more than 160 miles on the road and the road was detoured, but even if everyone walked straight-line distance between the fields, it had to be more than 100 kilometers. Two days was really not enough.
Therefore, it is really hard to drive at full speed in the wind and rain. If you are an ordinary person, you will be exhausted in twenty or thirty minutes in this environment. Although everyone has been strengthened by attributes, after walking for seven or eight hours, most of them can't walk when they reach more than one o'clock in the night.
After all, everyone has been sleepless in the past two days. Most people slept for two or three hours on the first night. Some people were not sleeping and had shortage of food. After several high-intensity battles and marches, even the Little Superman had to be exhausted.
So, when it reached midnight ten, someone suggested rest, but in the wind and rain, there was no place for people to rest.
"There should be a farm nearby. I remember that there is a place called Aofu Farm in the map, and there should be a house there." The howling wind and rain made a tall corn pole flying all over the sky. Li Qing protected his ears and shouted this sentence in the wind and rain.
"Farm? Nearby?" The special forces looked back at him, "You're sure you can remember it so clearly."
"It's not wrong." Li Qing nodded and walked to the front of the team.
The power of the storm is getting stronger and stronger, and the wind level has reached a terrifying level 7 or 8. If it is bigger, no one can stand it anymore. Moreover, on the way, since Li Qing's strength and physical fitness coefficient are the lowest - it is really not much stronger than ordinary people, he has been able to survive all the way by his own will.
The most test of people's endurance in the wind and rain, and endurance is also a kind of strength. Although he tries to perform the same as others, it is really hard for him to let people with only 13 points of strength do the same thing as people with 30 points of strength. A person's will can make up for some physical defects, but no matter how firm a child's will is, it is difficult for him to do it with adults.

Something like that comes.
What's more, Li Qing's pitiful 7-point physique made him feel that he had to get sick if he continued to move on.
These are the most objective factors - the one who needs rest the most in the team now is not others, but his one with the lowest physical attributes.
Apart from the objective factors of the body, there is also the subjective factors that Li Qing wants to rest - if he keeps rushing and everyone gathers together clearly, it will be very unfavorable to the implementation of his plan. So when he got here, he took the initiative to lead the way, and use his almost unforgettable memory to lead the team to the inconspicuous Aofu Farm on the map.
He walked forward, and the people in the team followed him skeptically, but the doubts and doubts did not last long, and they saw the fence of human institutions.
There was a wooden sign next to the fence. It was too dark for everyone to see what was written on the wooden sign. However, having a fence means having a house, and more than a dozen people suddenly became energetic.
"I didn't expect there was really, so close." A female student in the team became excited - as an ordinary student, when did they suffer such pain? The raindrops were swept on the face by the strong wind, and they had long wanted to find a place to rest.
"Your memory is really good." Seeing the fence, the special forces looked at Li Qing suspiciously, as if he had thought of something.
The others seemed to be just immersed in the joy of seeing the resting place, climbing over the fence in the wind and rain, and walking towards the inside of the farm.
Farms in the United States are usually large because a farmer sometimes has to manage a large piece of land. After people climbed over the fence, they came to a small complex of seven or eight large houses, and there was also a place to dry grains outside. In these seven or eight large houses, there were grain storage warehouses and places to place pesticides and fertilizers. At first glance, there was only one house where humans lived, which should be the farmer's own home.
"Let's rest here in the middle of the night." The heavy rain outside caused the accumulated water on the ground to bury the ankles. This heavy rain was very unusual - because in normal weather, long-term heavy rains are rare. Everyone waded in the mud and walked to the door of the big house, and listened alertly whether there was any movement inside.
"It's impossible to say if there is no zombie." Everyone came to the door and looked at the farmer's door. After opening it, Zhang Qinliang made noise again. However, in this noisy sound of wind and rain, and even thunder, the volume he created was really incomparable with the sensational sound between heaven and earth.
So, he smashed the door for a long time, but he didn't see a zombie running out of it. In desperation, he shrugged and cursed, "These pigs are deaf in their ears."
The zombies didn't come out, and everyone was going to go in. After seeing the sound and the tactics were fruitless, the special forces led the way into the house.
The farmer's house is very big, it is a homemade two-story building. Each floor should have an area of more than 300 square meters. The house is not very clean, including radios, old TVs, random sofas, and the messy things left after packing the floor. Everything in the house is full of American country decoration style.
The messy and wide house is not a good thing for everyone. After entering the door, Li Qing reached out and turned on the light. After two "slap" switches, he found that the power had been cut off. The house was still dark. Only the occasional lightning flashing outside the window could make the house light suddenly.
And everyone was moving forward carefully in the house with this light...
After searching the house, everyone was already ready to fight with the zombies. They were even ready to meet a special infected person here, but after searching upstairs and downstairs, they found that there was no trace of zombies here, which surprised everyone.
"The farmer and his family should have run away at the beginning of the disaster." After searching, Li Qing said to Shen Ruyi next to him: "The valuable things in the house were taken away, and no one was found, including the flashlight. If it weren't for sufficient preparation, the luggage would not have been packed so thoroughly."
As Li Qing spoke, he took off his already wet top and wiped his body with the bed sheets in the room, which made him feel a little better.
"The farm is far away from the city and has a small population, so even if the disaster comes, it will not be so sudden. It is not surprising that the farmer can run away. Even if he can't run away, there shouldn't be much zombies here."
Farms are not as good as forest farms. In the United States, due to fully mechanized farming, there are few people on the farm. Except for the farming and harvest season, there are usually less than ten people on the farm, which is very quiet.
While Li Qing and Shen Ruyi were talking, Shen Ruyi also took off his armor and clothes as usual, and opened the tightly wrapped hunting rifle he had wrapped. This thing was wrapped by him three layers inside and three layers inside and three layers inside and were still held in his arms along the way, so although it was still a little wet, there was no large area of water inlet, so it was completely normal to use.
