the sun rose slowly behind them and the sky turned to silky white which gradually changed to dark blue, but the direction Hao Jian and the others were headed was the dark abyss, an abyss that would swallow all things that would enter.

At seven o’clock in the morning, the sun has shone into every corner of the town. There are already a lot of farming figures doing formwork on their lands by the river and a small boat casting a net to catch fish in one of the fish farms surrounded by nets on the riverbank, the caught fish would then be sold to the people who would come in trucks to collect the fish.

Villagers would squat on the side of the road with their vegetables, hawking and chatting with bystanders while children would help collect money or play in groups.

Those who bought vegetables would return home and begin to boil water to cook porridge, wash the vegetables they recently bought straight into the pot, and blanch them. They would then drain them out and pour some soy sauce. Perhaps others bought fish and fried the two palm-sized fish in a frying pan until golden brown on both sides before putting some seasoning.

After preparing the dishes, they would call their families back for breakfast. . .

It was the common sight in this town before the apocalypse, however, all of this vanished due to the horror of the zombie virus invasion.

Hao Jian and the others drove along the riverbank and saw nothing but unpopular zombies, broken wooden doors, messy fish farms, and they can even see many fishes floating on the river, emitting a foul smell.

They did see a few boats along the way, however, either they’re wooden boats or kayaks commonly used in tourist attractions. What they all have in common is that they require manual paddling while no industrial or automated ship could be seen.

It was obviously not a wise move to go to the center of Xiang city using a boat that requires manual labor, so the group had to continue searching along the river.

Soon, they found two bamboo rafts on the shore near the next town, the kind one can sit on for sightseeing tours. After making sure that they had engines, the group was ready to approach them.

Shi Gong Dui was very excited, “I don’t know which guy drove all the bamboo rafts in the tourist attraction, but thank god!”

After the group cleared the surrounding zombies, they sent Hao Jian and Xin Ting down to check the bamboo rafts. Xin Ting confirmed that one of the rafts was using an electric engine but already lost its power while the other one was still using an older gasoline engine but ran out of gasoline and was pushed into the shallows.

“Pour the remaining gasoline into it and move the things down!” Hao Jian directed.

In fact, they didn’t have much stuff and what they had was just luggage as well as various rags they picked up on the road. They will soon arrive in Xiangcheng, so there’s no need to carry those rags.

As the group approached the raft carrying their own bags, several people suddenly jumped down from the high slope of the road and took the lead in rushing towards Hao Jian and Xin Ting, “Haha, I didn’t expect you to have gasoline, what a godsend!”

Those words were the same ones Shi Gong Dui previously said as if hitting him in the face with a ‘slap’.

“The mantis catches the cicada without noticing the yellow bird behind?” Hao Jian’s expression didn’t change while looking at the several people surrounding them.

There were five people, four men, and one woman, but it was clear in a glance that the woman wasn’t a weak person. Her expression naturally reminded Hao Jian of criminals.

All five of them were holding knives, steel forks, clubs, axes, and batons. Although hao Jian and the others also appeared to have weapons, why were they mostly women?

In their eyes, women are vulnerable and not intimidating enough.

Hao Jian coldly looked at them. Killing zombies is easy, but to take these people on, she really doesn’t have enough power to deal with them.

At this moment, more and more zombies appeared around them that the woman called out, “Kill them so we can leave!”

Hao Jian drew out her gun and smiled, “Then let’s see which is faster your knife, or my gun.”

The man which Hao Jian aimed her gun at laughed and smiled full of contempt, “Who doesn’t have a toy gun?”

Just after speaking, a ‘bang’ came out. The man paused and then let out a cry of pain. His companions were startled by the sound and at the same time saw a lot of blood flowing from the man’s telling, dripping onto the ground. . .

“This bitch actually brought a real fucking gun?!” They were shocked, but they weren’t deterred by Hao Jian either until another man was hit by Hao Jian again.

With two people wounded in a row, the remaining people had no doubt that Hao Jian still had many bullets in her magazine. Although they were tall and overwhelming in terms of strength, they were still powerless when faced with a gun.

What’s more, Lian Ru Ning, Peng Mao, and Shi Gong Dui also rushed over, and when they saw that they only had three people left and were no match for the five of them, they quickly retreated.

“Fuck, if the zombies hadn’t come, I would’ve killed you, bastards!” Shi Gong Dui shouted, “Student Hao, let’s go!”

Hao Jian then threw their things into the raft and pushed it down the river for several more meters until the water reached their knees before climbing onto the raft one after another.

The zombies have already run to the shallows. The two people who were shot who hadn’t died saw the numerous zombies and wanted to run, however, they couldn’t escape and their miserable cries soon echoed.

The hearts of everyone trembled and then Shi Gong Dui pushed Peng Mao, “Quickly start the raft.”

“I don’t know how to drive this thing!” Peng Mao said.

After he finished speaking, he and Shi Gong Dui turned to Hao Jian who pondered for a moment, “I don’t either.”

“. . .” Seeing that there were zombies whose feet were already in the water, Shi Gong Dui cursed ‘fuck!’ grabbed Xin Ting’s gasoline rice cutter, and aimed it at the zombies.

The first zombie to enter the water had already reached the position of the gears of the rice cutter and Shi Gong Dui aggressively slammed against the zombie while shouting, “Hurry up and find something to row the boat, you guys row away first!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a sound like ‘duk duk duk’ and then the raft swayed that Shi Gong Dui nearly fell off. However, his balance was good and he immediately stabilized himself.

They all looked at Xin Ting who blushed, “Many gasoline-type engines work similarly. . .”

“Um, move the paddle that controls the direction, otherwise, you will send us all to the zombie den.” Hao Jian said as she slashed a zombie’s neck with a knife.

It was they realized that the bamboo raft slid straight towards the shore because no one controlled the direction. Lian Ru Ning’s eyes widened and hurried over to th adjust the direction of the raft. After a while, the bamboo raft made a turn and moved a little further away from the shore.

The zombies didn’t give up and went straight down the river who eventually getting covered by water.

After thinking that there might be zombies walking at the bottom of the river, Xin Ting got goosebumps all over her body and increased to the raft’s maximum speed. It took Xin Ting several times to control the raft’s oars until the bamboo raft finally gradually stabilized.

Do you guys think those people dying would end up becoming Hao Jian’s points?? And can I just say I love how decisive Hao Jian is when she pulled the trigger?? Oh and I think she’s out of bullets. . .

Do you guys think there are zombie fishes in the river? I mean, there are zombie dogs, right?? Though it would be messed up if there was. . .
