Chapter 427: 389 We in E City are very sincere and want to reconcile with Xiang City_2

Hu Yanxiang immediately nodded; he had recently fallen out of favor with Qu Shiheng.

Because the walls of the E City Base had not been repaired, Qu Shiheng had developed a low opinion of him, and, gradually, Hu wasn’t being given important tasks anymore.

So Hu desperately needed to accomplish something noteworthy.

He turned and left Qu’s tent, calling together the few strong men left under his command to pursue Chen Hu’s vehicle.

Because of Xiang City Base’s strength, they had previously focused on clearing the obstacles on the various highways.

Moreover, with some effort from E City Base, the highway between E City and Xiang City was quickly cleared.

Driving a car toward Xiang City Base, Hu didn’t notice anything unusual on the road.

He also didn’t quite understand why there were so many skeletons in the lowland of E City Base. If he had to offer some explanation, perhaps a large number of zombies had died outside of E City Base?

That was the mainstream narrative in E City Base.

After all, if there were anything wrong on the road to Xiang City, it would likely have already been discovered by the people of Xiang City Base.

Not long after, the man driving Hu whispered to him,

“Brother Xiang, are we really heading to Xiang City Base? Think about it, what’s the situation there now? The place is swarming with zombies.”

“It’s likely that if Chen Hu reached Xiang City Base, he’s now buried among the zombies.”

After some thought, Hu found the man’s words reasonable. Now, Xiang City Base was completely surrounded by the Zombie Tide.

If they continued on, they would encounter zombies.

Chen Hu hadn’t taken many people with him to Xiang City Base, and counting his deceased mother, there were at most five.

How could those five possibly defeat so many zombies?

Therefore, Hu instructed the man driving the car,

“Drive on for another half an hour, and after that, we won’t go any further.”

“Everyone keep your mouths shut. If Qu Shiheng asks, say we pushed Chen Hu into the Zombie Tide, and he was devoured beyond recognition.”

“Got it?”

Everyone nodded in agreement and drove toward Xiang City Base for half an hour.

Then they decisively turned back.

On the way to E City Base, they found a body similar to Chen’s physique, strapped it to the roof of the car, and hurried back to E City Base.

In this day and age, bodies were a common sight; that was no exaggeration.

Those who had never left Xiang City Base could not comprehend such a hellish scene.

Bodies were so plentiful that, while driving on the road, one would encounter a disfigured corpse every few distances.

Actually, what Qu Shiheng said wasn’t entirely untrue. Although E City Base was in bad shape, comparatively speaking, it was still considered very safe, convenient, and resource-rich.

At least in E City Base, there were still many people alive.

With some luck, you could also find quite a few resources among the rubble outside E City Base.

Hu’s men really had nerves of steel.

They dragged a body similar in build to Chen’s before Qu.

Qu looked at the half-eaten face of the corpse with disgust.

Without much of a glance, he waved his hand and told Hu,

“Take this body to Xiang City Base.”

“Tell Hua Mi at Xiang City Base that we at E City are very sincere and want to make amends.”

“Chen Hu was wrong before. If it hadn’t been for him stirring things up behind my back, I wouldn’t have acted so irrationally.”

“You must remember, your attitude has to be good; you’re representing me, after all.”

Qu added,

“Whether E City Base can have enough food, medical supplies, and water sources all depends on whether we can please this ‘bitch’ with the surname Hua.”

Qu gritted his teeth as he spoke, harboring deep hatred for Hua Mi, yet he now had to ingratiate himself to her.

The situation at E City Base was simply too dire.

Every day, loads of people suffered from diarrhea, defecating everywhere.

Finally, many died in the excrement within E City Base.

It was a literal death by excrement.

Qu had never seen survivors with bloody stools to that extent.

Their bodies, due to blood loss, appeared emaciated, nothing but skin and bones.
