Chapter 169 Comfort and Arrival

Putting down the intercom, looking at Lori who looked unhappy, he could only comfort her, but it was obvious that she didn't listen and kept asking him to go out and look.

Helplessly, he could only look for help from the women around him. Amy couldn't bear it and was pulled back when she was about to help.

It was Carol who had been silent, and she smiled meaningfully at Sean.

Looking at her expression, Sean also understood what she meant. He hesitated for a while, but looking at Lori who was a little emotionally broken, he finally nodded in compromise.

The women waved their fists silently in their hearts, all of them cast a grateful look at Carol behind them, and then they came to Lori and helped her into the house.

Sean always thought that this thin and small single mother was a timid little woman, but he didn't expect that after getting familiar with her, he found that she was the best actor among these people. The reason why he didn't agree with these women to go out was mainly because the other women were really bad, but when it came to Carol, he was not worried.

This woman's growth rate is simply amazing. She performed brilliantly in several outings and even saved several people.

Now that she is allowed to go out alone, Sean is confident that she can live well outside. At this moment, Carol's meaning is obviously that she will take care of several girls. What else can Sean say?

Seeing that the matter is resolved, he lowered his head to look at his watch, and then realized that he was about to leave. He cursed and turned to run to the front yard.

…

Rick and others were still looking for a way back in the car.

After hanging up the intercom, the atmosphere in the car was a bit dull. Aji in the back seat suddenly said awkwardly: "Why don't I go to the back."

At this time, because the back seat was crowded, Tara took the initiative to put her arms on the shoulders of the people on both sides. It was inevitable that there was some physical contact, which made him a little embarrassed.

As if realizing this, Tara patted him on the back generously and said in a carefree manner: "Hey, don't be shy, I like girls, and you are like a buddy in my eyes, so relax."

"Haha, of course!"

With a stiff smile, Aji didn't feel relaxed at all. He tried to lean his body to the side, but it was useless.

Rick in the front row ignored them and focused his attention on the road outside. In such a short half an hour, they had encountered two groups of zombies, one large and one small, which made him dare not relax his vigilance. Morgan on the side was also observing the movements around him. As long as he found something unusual, he would turn around and leave as soon as possible.

At this time, the direction they were driving was getting farther and farther away from the prison, which made them more and more anxious. They wanted to find a way back as soon as possible, but they kept encountering zombies.

Another hour later, the car stopped in the middle of a road, and two big trees appeared in front of them in the middle of the road.

Looking at the two trees thicker than his waist, Rick walked up to them with a bit of depression, hugged one of the trees, and motioned for a few people to come and help.

After a fruitless effort, he stood there with his hands on his waist in frustration, panting, and watching the disgusting zombies wandering in the woods. He was furious, and drew out the machete from his waist and walked towards the zombies.

Lily hid in the car with Megan in her arms, watching the policeman kill the zombies one by one, and she couldn't help feeling relieved. She thought silently, at least following them can guarantee Megan's safety, right?

Morgan sat in the driver's seat and tried to start the car, but could only hear the sound of the motor idling. The pointer of the fuel tank had fallen to the bottom, and it was out of fuel at this time.

"Damn it!"

He slapped the steering wheel hard, rubbed his bald head as if to vent, and then looked at Rick who came back.

"No gas?"

"Unfortunately, yes."

He sighed and could only walk now. He asked a few people to load the supplies in the back of the pickup truck. He was very glad that he listened to Sean and brought more supplies.

All the people brought backpacks, which was a great help at this time. The supplies in the truck bed were quite abundant. Several people divided them and each carried some.

Rick looked at the map in his hand, identified it for a while, and then pointed in a direction and said, "Let's go over there."

Aji asked in confusion, "Isn't that the opposite direction?"

Nodding to confirm the other party's statement, Rick explained, "There is a town over there. We can go there to see if there is any gasoline."

He pointed to the three oil bottles in the back of the pickup truck, and the others understood what he meant.

"It's noon now. Let's speed up and try to get there before dark."

The group did not hesitate, picked up the oil bottles and walked towards the town.

...

At the same time, Shandingzhai.

Today is the day for the Hilltop Village to trade. Jesus got up early and discussed the quantity of traded materials with Gregory. He quickly loaded the car and left the settlement.

The people on Alexandria's side also prepared the materials. They were going to Hilltop Village and the Kingdom of God today, so they also got up early, loaded all the materials, and prepared to leave.

The captain has not returned yet, and Moore, Cass, Daryl and Catherine have also gone out. The rest of the people are currently under the management of Raphael. These materials today are also agreed last time.

Since the last time he suffered a loss, Gregory's attitude towards them has not been very good, but his biggest characteristic is that he is shameless. After discovering that this caravan is very rich in supplies, his attitude has changed drastically.

Now, whenever Lu Jiayi's team goes to Shandingzhai, this old guy will run out in a hurry and flatter him, just to get even a little more stuff.

Except for giving the other party a high price in the first transaction, the materials in the team are basically quite cheap afterwards. Therefore, this old guy has never achieved his goal. However, he is still happy with it and will never take advantage of it. The attitude of not giving up.

Just when Raphael arrived near Shandingzhai, he saw two trucks parked at the gate of the other party from a distance. About twenty people were standing at the gate of Shandingzhai with weapons in hand.

Feeling something was wrong, he immediately stopped the team, quickly hid the car, and sneaked out of the village with Bob.

After taking out the monitoring equipment they took from Allen, they quietly hid in the grass, and a man's arrogant voice came from the headphones.

"Congratulations, you are very lucky to be the first survivors we met after arriving here! So I plan to give you some benefits,"

Raphael wore monitoring headphones and held up a pair of high-powered telescopes.

He saw a tall man talking emotionally to the people in Shandingzhai.

Raphael had never seen these people before, and the arrogant voice in the earpiece continued.

"Welfare is...!"

He paused, and a few evil laughs came from the earphones.

"Hey hey hey, you will be our first slaves in Washington!"
