    The room was a mess, with giant rat excrement everywhere. The furniture and anything that could be chewed had been chewed up, and there were pieces everywhere.  Lin Chuan walked around the room and didn't find anything drinkable, so he had to walk back.  "I will probably become a monster." Li Mingfeng said suddenly.  There was so much blood on his body, his own, his son's, and his wife's, and there were cuts all over his hands and body.  "Whatever, it's the same with me." Lin Chuan replied, he casually dug out a piece of flat ground on the ground and lay down.  There was also a lot of blood on his body. When Li Mingfeng hit him just now, blood even splashed into his mouth.  "I'm sorry." Li Mingfeng said.  Lin Chuan shook his head and said he didn't care.  "When I met her, she was only seventeen years old." Li Mingfeng said suddenly.  "She looked so beautiful then." Lin Chuan didn't answer and listened quietly.  ¡°Perhaps only by telling everything can he truly face it all.  The sky is getting brighter, and the sound of gunfire can be heard from time to time, but it sounds far away from here.  "It seems that none of us will become monsters." Finally, after Li Mingfeng finished talking about everything about his wife and son, Lin Chuan sat up.  "Compared to them, we are lucky, so we must live well." "I will not beg to die anymore." Li Mingfeng said.  "Since you didn't die today, no matter who you are, don't let me die easily. You are right, everyone has to die, and no one can escape it, so make your death more valuable." Lin Chuan put him to death.  Pulled up.  "You rest for a while, I'll go help them" he said.  "No, I should come." Li Mingfeng said.  There were no intact sheets or quilts in the room, so they ended up wrapping them in shower curtains and towels and tying them up carefully.  Facing the corpses of his wife and son, Li Mingfeng cried again, but he did not do anything irrational again. Instead, he hugged them tenderly and wrapped them carefully.  "It has to be cremated." He said to Lin Chuan.  "Otherwise the virus will still spread." Lin Chuan nodded. Now he finally knew why those soldiers used flamethrowers to burn the giant cat's body and blood.  But they didn¡¯t tell us!  He punched the wall hard. Li Mingfeng looked at him and said nothing.  Walking out of the room and walking to the central square, the sun was so bright that it was dazzling.  There were already many people staying there. They looked at the corpses carried by Lin Chuan and Li Mingfeng. They didn't speak, they just nodded silently and said hello.  Several women covered their faces with their hands and cried, while someone was advising them.  The crowd was much thinner than the day before, and many familiar faces were no longer visible.  "Brother Lin, Brother Li." Zeng Yu stood behind Lin Chuan and said softly. He had also seen Li Mingfeng's wife and son, so he could naturally guess who was wrapped.  At this time, he only felt deep despair and could not say anything.  Last night, he and Jiang Ming moved to a place where several bachelors lived. When the giant rats attacked in the middle of the night, they relied on the strength of many people to finally drive away the giant rats before the security fence was destroyed.  But many people are not so lucky.  Lin Chuan nodded towards him.  "How many more people are there?" he asked.  "I don't know." Zeng Yu shook his head.  "Go and do some statistics." Lin Chuan said to him.  "We must leave here as soon as possible. We can no longer live here." "Where to go?" Zeng Yu asked.  "The troops by the river are gone. Have they abandoned us?" "I don't know." Lin Chuan replied.  "We'll count the number of people first. Don't go into a house where no one is opening the door. People bitten by rats will turn into monsters." "Linchuan, wait a minute!" Someone in the crowd suddenly said loudly.  "Aren't you going to say something? Or do you not think that what happened last night is your responsibility at all?" "What did you say!" Zeng Yu jumped up. Although they had not known each other for a long time, he was very interested in Lin Chuan and  Li Mingfeng already has a deep sense of identity.  Lin Chuan patted his shoulder and asked him to calm down.  He knew the person in the crowd. His name was Leng Suan. He was not tall but very strong, and he was one of the thirty-seven people who stayed on the first day.  Lin Chuan later asked him to lead a team. He worked hard and effectively, and was better than many people.  Lin Chuan originally expected him to stand up and support him.  "I'm not the one questioning you.??, but to question your abilities and question your judgment.  "He continued. "You were just a salesman before. You had no ability to organize and manage, nor did you have the knowledge and courage to make the right choice.  If the situation were not what it is now, if you came out to help everyone work and serve everyone, there would be no problem.  But now it is obviously not that simple. As a leader, every decision in the future means the fate of hundreds of people. A seemingly trivial mistake may even cost everyone their lives, just like last night.  I hope you can take responsibility for everyone and voluntarily hand over leadership.  " "Why?  Zeng Yu said loudly. "What happened yesterday is not Brother Lin's responsibility at all!"  "    "Yeah?  Whose responsibility is that?  Who told everyone that they can sit back and relax?  "Leng Su'an sneered. "I have long said that expansion screws cannot be used. They must be drilled and fixed with bolts. Does anyone listen to my opinion?  It was precisely because Lin Chuan said there was no time that he did it casually and killed so many people.  If I were the leader, there wouldn't be so many people dying!  " The crowd was in an uproar. Many people didn't know that such a thing had happened. Lin Chuan didn't answer silently, and Zeng Yu became anxious. "The method you mentioned is too time-consuming and there is no time!  If you're really right, why don't you stick to it?  "He said loudly. "Besides, Brother Lin and Brother Li almost lost their lives to find steel and welding machines, so that we can live to talk here. What nonsense are you talking about with your eyes open?  " "They have done a lot and taken a lot of risks, but this does not allow me to pretend that I cannot see their mistakes.  "Leng Su'an continued. "If we had thought more, there wouldn't have been so many people dying. Why didn't we do it?  Please think about it, can you turn a blind eye to this mistake?  Do you feel safe leaving your destiny to him?  " People began to whisper among themselves. "After all, don't you just want to be the leader?  I will be the first to disapprove of you!  "Zeng Yu said. "Stop talking, Zeng Yu, let him finish.  " Lin Chuan grabbed him. "I used to be the president of Anyuan Electric. The company is not very big in Jianghai, but it has nearly a hundred people and more than 400 million in assets. I and my subordinates worked hard to build it all.  of.  I am also the convener of Cheonan Wilderness Survival Club and have rich wilderness survival experience.  "Leng Su'an looked at the survivors around him and said. "I have experienced many more things than Lin Chuan, and I have come into contact with a wider range of people. In every aspect, I am more suitable to be a leader than Lin Chuan.  Of course, if anyone thinks they are stronger than me, please come forward.  I am not fighting for any rights. Frankly speaking, at this time, these so-called rights have no meaning at all. I just feel the responsibility to stand up and lead everyone to live a better life.  Instead of just messing around without a clue like now.  " Lin Chuan looked at him, and he stared into Lin Chuan's eyes without showing any signs of weakness. " Let everyone choose.  " Lin Chuan said with a final sigh. As Leng Su'an said, in this kind of doomsday, the right to lead hundreds of people is meaningless at all. In just two days, Lin Chuan already felt very tired, not  Physical fatigue, but fatigue caused by the huge pressure on his shoulders. "Everyone" Leng Su'an turned his head with satisfaction and was about to tell the residents his plan. A sound of horn interrupted him.  Dongfeng Warriors and two military vehicles full of soldiers rushed directly into the community. People fled in all directions. Before they could complain, forty or fifty fully armed soldiers had jumped out of the military vehicles. There were about thirty military vehicles on the street outside.  "Is everyone here?  "A major and a captain came down from the Dongfeng Warriors. The major looked at the buildings in the community and asked with a frown. Before Lin Chuan could speak, Leng Su'an rushed forward to greet him. "Comrade, what's the matter?  he asked. "What's new?"  " "There should be 161 adult men in this community. Where are the others?  "The captain asked, holding a list in his hand. "This" Leng Su'an muttered, the attitude of these soldiers was obviously wrong. "They are already dead.  Lin Chuan replied. He was wearing the military uniform of a reserve second lieutenant. The captain looked at him but ignored his answer. "Class one to four, bring infrared detectors and go upstairs to get everyone down."  "He ordered. "If you refuse to obey orders, just break the door open and drag him down."  "About half of the soldiers quickly carried out his orders. "Are you the person in charge here?  "He turned to Lin Chuan and asked. "Comrade, we are discussing this matter" Leng Suan said next to him. The captain frowned and raised his chin at him.Immediately two soldiers came up and dragged him behind the crowd.  "We only have twenty minutes here," the captain said.  "Have your people line up immediately. Men over fifteen and under fifty-five will stand in four columns, and women, children and the elderly will stand next to each other. The matter is urgent, and it's best not to have anyone come out to cause trouble." Lin Chuan was also in a group.  Confused, but the captain's expression made him understand what he should do, and he immediately pulled Li Mingfeng, Zeng Yu and others into the crowd.  "What's wrong?" "What do they want to do?" People asked one after another. Lin Chuan tried his best to comfort them and asked them to line up according to the captain's request.  More people came down from upstairs one after another. Some of them obviously had new injuries on their faces. They were either angry or panic-stricken. But after seeing the soldiers with guns, they all wanted to squeeze into the crowd. Lin Chuan  With Li Mingfeng, they had to sort them into the teams they should be in again.  Ten minutes later, all the soldiers who went upstairs came downstairs, vaguely surrounding them.  This made people panic.  The captain nodded to the major, so the latter took out a horn from the car, stood on the pedal of the Dongfeng Warrior, and spoke loudly.  "Comrades, I know you must have many questions, but now we don't have time to answer your questions." The major spoke at a steady pace so that everyone could hear what he said clearly.  "Let me explain briefly: You should all be able to guess that we are facing an unprecedented doomsday crisis! Not just Jianghai, not just China, but the entire world!" The crowd started to commotion, and the captain raised an automatic rifle.  Several shots were fired into the air, and the crowd fell silent again.  "There is no way out of Jianghai's periphery. Thousands of monsters have surrounded Jianghai and will soon enter the city! You should have seen what mice look like after they mutate, but the monsters on the periphery are much bigger than them.  More! And much more ferocious! If we don't take measures quickly, everyone in Jianghai City will be eaten by them in a few days!" There was a burst of exclamation from the crowd, and the major nodded with satisfaction and continued.  "This is the situation we are facing. Therefore, for the survival of everyone, the emergency command has issued a general mobilization order! All men between the ages of fifteen and fifty-five must join the militia and fight for the survival of Jianghai!"  The crowd became chaotic, and someone screamed in panic. The mother wanted to squeeze into the crowd and hug her son, but the soldiers quickly stopped the chaos with the butts of their rifles.  "In the center of the city, within the first ring, construction of a thirty-meter-high and ten-meter-wide wall has begun! From now on, those of us who survive will live in it! We have dug a deep well that is free of pollution.  , experts also demonstrated that everyone can survive by growing food on high buildings! But building this wall requires a lot of manpower and time! We must do our best to ensure that the wall is built, otherwise everyone will die!  " "You have three choices," the major continued.  "First, those who know how to use guns must join the front-line troops! We must delay the monsters outside the city for at least twenty days at all costs! Your family members will be able to enter the safe inner city immediately and enjoy enough food and drinking water.  ! Even if you die in the battle, they can still survive safely! Second, those who have done construction before, can weld, and can drive large construction machinery, you and your family members can apply to join the city wall construction.  On the outside of the city wall, you can enter the inner city after the wall is built! Others must stay and build fortifications in place. If the monsters arrive in this area, you must take up guns and fight! Fight off the monsters and you can enter the inner city!  Run away, and the deserters and their families will be shot on the spot! Anyone who tries to leave the jurisdiction and flee to the inner city will be shot on the spot!" People started talking in panic, and the major jumped off the pedal and walked directly to Li Mingfeng.  "Have you ever been a soldier?" "You have been a special police officer for ten years." Li Mingfeng replied.  "Very good, we are short of talents like you right now." The major patted him on the shoulder.  "We have already organized a reserve force here, which is under" Li Mingfeng said.  But the major interrupted him directly.  "That's a thing of the past. Now everything has to make way for the construction of the wall. Everything has to be broken and started all over again." The captain took the trumpet from his hand and shouted: "Start counting people now! We have used it before  The man with the gun raised his right hand!¡±
