Li Yu told Uncle Lai's daughters and wife to get into the vehicle first.
But he still steeled himself and got out as well.
To try to talk them out of it.
In the end, he said nothing.
Xiao Lue picked up a wooden stick from the ground. Li Yu glanced at him with some approval.
He had a bit of backbone.
Then came Xiao Lue, carrying the wooden stick.
Next came Li Yu and Li Hang, carrying long blades.
They faced the horde of zombies head-on.
Seeing the people below the wall, Li Hongyuan asked curiously.
"Turn on the searchlight," Li Yu said.
It could supposedly illuminate things hundreds of meters away.
Li Hongyuan switched it on as Li Yu instructed.
He froze in shock.
Second Uncle and Fourth Uncle, who had just climbed up the watchtower, were stunned as well.
But there was easily enough room for three people to stand below.
"The way they walk doesn't look right, though," Second Uncle asked.
Li Hang rushed to answer.
"Bring them inside."
He charged into the zombie horde first.
Meters.
That would mean trouble.
Only then could they avoid being surrounded.
"Yu!"
Li Hang beside him, along with his father and Fourth Uncle on the watchtower, all called out.
His blade rose and fell.
Two zombies dropped straight to the ground.
He slashed at another two zombies.
Those two were also cut down.
He had been terrified at first.
When had his son become so formidable?
He immediately pulled Second Uncle and Fourth Uncle along to open the gate below.
Meanwhile.
They each picked a zombie.
The blade struck the zombie's neck.
It was well and truly dead.
A single thrust drove straight into the zombie's eyeball.
The blade pierced clean through.
Clean and efficient.
It was incredibly fast. He immediately recalled the method his older brother had taught him.
He thrust his blade forward in an instant, then ran toward Li Hang.
He stabbed again.
The zombies behind them had caught up as well.
He charged over.
He cut the heads off the three zombies rushing toward Li Hang.
Once sharpened, the blade was incredibly keen.
Parts of its edge had even curled slightly.
The zombies behind them kept coming.
Immediately afterward.
With horizontal slashes and downward chops, they finished them off within minutes.
He pointed at the two zombies lying on the ground ahead.
He had long since been unable to hold back.
He thrust his blade at one of the zombies crawling forward.
To his surprise, it only sank in a few centimeters.
He immediately jumped back.
Li Hongyuan and Second Uncle, Li Hongda, pushed the gate open.
The straight blade thrust forward.
Bloody froth sprayed everywhere.
He stared at them in astonishment.
He also hurried out of the vehicle.
His eyes immediately stung with tears.
He noticed that the zombies lying on the ground all looked somewhat familiar.
Full of questions, Li Hongyuan looked at Li Yu.
"I told you before. They've turned into zombies."
"Look at them. What part of them still looks human?" Li Yu said.
These were zombies now. Li Yu's other relatives heard the commotion and hurried out as well.
After all, they were old. He was afraid of frightening them.
Hours spent at their side protecting them.
It was also good to let them know what was happening now.
That way, no one would be caught off guard.
His grandfather and the others were not frightened.
They had endured hunger, hardship, and exhaustion.
This hardly counted as frightening.
After seeing them, they all hid behind their parents.
His expression was grim.
As soon as those words were spoken.
His second maternal uncle and his youngest maternal aunt's family.
And they were so far away.
They cried and worried at the same time.
