Dangerous Survival in the Apocalypse Chapter 22 part1

When Yun Feiyang and Mo Feng left, Shen Xun pouted his face, “An An, you're lying.”

"En"

“Mr. Gu didn't call you at all, right?” The child's eyes were clear, and he looked up at Shen Shian,”Before the sound was obviously an alarm.”

Shen Shian smiled and locked the door carefully, holding the child and sitting on the sofa. His ringtone and alarm sound were mixed when Shen Xun tossed the phone. Before the morning meeting, he learned from the road repair that he had to go to the hospital at night, he set a 5:30 alarm. When he was persuading Yun Feiyang, the alarm turned on in the space, so he took his phone out from the space with his pocket as a disguise.

He had successfully deceived Yun Feiyang but he had failed to deceive the child.

He told Shen Xun two sentences, "It's not good to lie, don't learn to lie."

Shen Xun hugged his palm and said, "I won't lie to An an." As for the other humans, that would be bad.

Shen Shian's heart was warm, and his eyes got softer.

Yun Feiyang and Mo Feng took Ruibao and the house immediately became quiet. Because it is too quiet, their thoughts became active and uncontrolable.

Fan Guoping was scratched by a zombie and was infected with the virus, which he had never expected. After listening to Professor Li's analysis of the relationship between the zombie virus and the flu virus in the anatomy class, Shen Shian had been thinking about a problem.

Does spring water has any effect on protection against the virus or even curing the zombie virus?

Before the outbreak of the zombie virus, the number of people infected with influenza in the medical department was about one-half of the total number. According to local news reports and the warning issued by the National Center for Disease Control and Prevention, other regions were almost the same proportion.

But he, Yun Feiyang, Mo Feng, Fan Guoping, Shen Xun, and Mr.Gu, including Yun Feiyang's parents, all of them did not show any signs of catching a cold. This chance was not impossible, but under normal circumstances the possibility was too small. The most reasonable explanation was because they had all drunk the spring water and the tomato juice produced in the space.

In other word, spring water could protect against the virus.

The sudden change of a person who was cold into a zombie means that the flu virus must have mutated. Fan Guoping was scratched by a zombie and infected with the mutated flu virus, the zombie virus, and he mutated. When he escorted Shen Shian and the others back to the door, the zombie changes on his body were already very serious. The skin was dry and blue, the veins were distorted, the eyeballs were cloudy, and even the blood leaking from the wound was covered with dark unknown liquid.

This showed that even if you take the spring water, there was no way to resist the zombie virus after the mutation. At the very least, there was no way to resist the zombie virus that has penetrated into the body.

The truth is that, but Shen Shian at this time can't help but think more possibilities. If spring water is not able to fight the virus, it's just because Fan Guoping's intake is not enough. In other words, you can be safe as long as you drink a little more spring water.

After learning that Fan Guoping was scratched by a zombie, his mind flashed the idea of ​​trying to save people with the spring water. But he can't do that.

First, according to the information obtained so far, the possibility that the spring water can cure zombie virus and even reverse zombie is too low; secondly, the existence of space and the spring is too shocking, a innocent ordinary man, treasuring a jade ring beccomes a crime[1].

Fortunately, he used the spring water to save Fan Guoping's life. According to the other party's return to the school when he was about to transform, if Fan Guoping asked him to save other people who have been scratched by zombies, if Fan Guoping's wife really turned into a zombie, Fan Guoping will ask him to save her with the spring water. Should he save or not save?

Everyone will know the secrets of the spring water, and the space is more likely to be exposed. And once the existence of the space is exposed, not only will he face an unpredictable fate, but even he will be thoroughly investigated and studied.

If Yun Feiyang was the one who got infected by the virus today, then Shen Shian will find a way to let him drink a little more spring water, and even stun the other party directly into the space to soak in the spring. Fan Guoping is not Yun Feiyang.

He is grateful, respectful, and admires Fan Guoping's character, but he can't take such a big risk for the other party.

The thoughts in his mind were surging, and it was inevitable that he would be restless. He looked at the child who was playing with his finger, perhaps to convince himself, or perhaps to alleviate the feeling of guilt in his heart, and whispered, “Do you think that the spring water can cure the zombie virus?”

“No.” Shen Xun decisively shook his head. He had seen the community from the balcony window and the situation in the distant campus. Although he did not understand why there were so many dead bodies, the danger of these inferior races is beyond doubt.

“An An,” the child looked at Shen Shian's eyes. He sounded peculiar, not like a dog who had become a person for a few months, nor like a three or four year old child, “The spring water can save lives, but only if the other party is still alive. Fan Guoping is no longer alive.”

He is not the owner of the space, so his perception of the outside world when he was in the space is rather vague, but he could still perceive how many person were around the space. When YunFeiyang and the others arrived at the door of the house, there were only three beating hearts in the vicinity of the space. He thought that Shen Shian was met with an accident, so he was so worried when he was out of the space.

If Fan Guoping is immediately treated when he was scratched, there may be a chance. But those who have died, even the spring could not revive them.

Shen Shian stared at Shen Xun for a while, and there was a dark light in his eyes. He couldn't found out what the other person was thinking.

After a long time, when they had calmed down, Shen Shian tidied the child's hair neatly, "Do you want to go to Beijing?"

Shen Shian decided to go to Beijing

He assured Fan Guoping that he would do his best to investigate the news of his family and to protect their safety. The communication network is now broken. He did not know whether Mr.Gu is still alive or not, not to mention whether the zombies will continue to evolve. For whatever reason, he couldn't stand at home and wait.

The reason why he chose to go instead of going back to school and waiting for the rescue team with the others is that he is not sure when the rescue team will arrive. Secondly, the rescue team's primary rescue target are advanced researchers such as Professor Li. Students are likely to be left, waiting for the next wave of rescue.

There is a more important reason besides this. In order to reduce time, the rescue team must be transferred nearby. Fortunately, there is a large military region in the province where H city is located, and the army is stationed for a long time. If he guessed that there was nothing wrong with it, the rescue team did use high-end researchers as the primary rescue target. In order to develop vaccines and effectively control the disaster as soon as possible, the most likely way is to establish a shelter and a safe area nearby, instead of risking to travel to almost all China and it took thousands of miles to go to Beijing. After all, according to the density of the population in the capital, the severity of the zombie disaster is far more greater than the vast majority of the country. As a result, even if he waits for rescue, it does not make any sense.

From H city to Beijing, before April 3, it took only more than two hours by plane, less than five hours by high-speed train, about ten hours by train, even if it is self-driving, if you counted the time to relax and sleep along the way. It will not exceed four days at most.

However, in the current situation of the zombies in the country, the future is uncertain, and the road is difficult.

Since he decided to go, he must be well prepared. The first step is to prepare supplies.

Unlike Yun Feiyang, Shen Shian was not worried about the traffic congestion caused by survivors fleeing. He has the space to rely on. When he encounters a congested road, he can first collect the car and continue driving after the traffic jam. At present, gas, water and electricity can be used normally. If it is not used, its a pity because the road is long and there will be lots of dangers. He is afraid there are not many opportunities to cook with peace of mind.

He first collected all the meat from upstairs to the second floor of the bamboo building. Fortunately, after the execises, he could use his mind to directly move the objects in the space. Otherwise, it would cost him a lot of time to sort out the piles of stuffs.

Then he took the steel pipe obtained from the dissection room and went to the supermarket outside the community. There were more than a dozen zombies in the supermarket, and the shelves had  fallen a lot. The goods had been scattered all over the place, and there were traces of being collected by people.

Shen Shian blocked the surveillance camera and took three bags of rice, a bucket of cooking oil, salt,  vinegar and other edible spices. The fresh area can only save one or two days of vegetables, chicken, duck and fish. In the district, he took one-fifth of the buns and taro cakes[2] , took one-tenth of frozen meat, fresh milk, yogurt and, meat product that would quickly rot in the freezer. In addition, he also took several boxes of milk and eggs that were not so easy to carry

For all readers, I'm very sorry but this novel will be on hold until next month because I got exam coming up and I need to study for it. Once again, I'm very sorry.
