Chapter 55 The Ambusher

In the woods on both sides of the highway, a group of strange-looking birds rested on the branches.

The black feathers were torn and missing.

The flesh on the chest seemed to have rotted, and if you look closely, you will find that there are many bloody granulations that keep wriggling.

"Ah-ah-"

As the strange birds cried, Zhou Kai noticed that these birds actually had sharp teeth in their beaks.

The group of strange birds noticed the bus driving on the road and looked over.

Fortunately, this group of strange birds did not catch up, otherwise it would be a big trouble.

"What the hell is this?" Lu Linhai frowned. The appearance of these strange birds was even more disgusting than the aliens in the city.

"It looks like a crow." Lin Yi felt uneasy.

These strange plants in front of him, and those disgusting strange birds on the trees, must have had some terrible things happen in this world, so it has become like this.

But what exactly happened?

"Is this thing a crow?" Lu Linhai was a little surprised.

"Judging from their calls and colors, they do look like crows." Zhang Cheng nodded.

"I just don't know why they look like this."

Seeing that the group of strange birds did not fly over, Zhang Cheng did not care about it.

He turned his head to look at Lin Yi and asked, "Where is the Far North you are talking about?"

"The North Pole? If we want to go to the North Pole, it will be a big project."

Lin Yi shook his head: "I don't know. We have limited information. If we want to go to the Far North, I'm afraid we can only drive north all the way."

"But I don't recommend doing this."

Lin Yi glanced at Zhou Kai and his sister sitting in the back seat, and then continued: "Let's go to the next city first. If we can't find any clues, it would be the best. If we can't find any..."

"If we can't find any, we'll talk about it later." Lin Yi sighed.

The bus was driving on the highway, and the atmosphere in the car was a little dull.

Perhaps they couldn't accept the reality in front of them for a while, and everyone in the car was silent.

The highway was empty, and there was no car to be seen except the bus they were riding.

About four hours later, Zhou Kai, who was sitting in the back row, jumped up from his seat.

"There are people in front." Zhou Kai frowned and shouted, and Lin Yi and others became alert instantly.

"Those aliens ran ahead of us? When did they run ahead? I didn't see them." Lu Linhai gritted his teeth and was ready to take action at any time.

"They are not aliens, but people." Zhou Kai continued.

"There are about thirty people in the woods on both sides of the highway."

"People?" Lin Yi was stunned.

He was used to seeing monsters gathering together, and suddenly knew that there were so many people gathered nearby, and Lin Yi was a little uncomfortable.

Because there were no cars on the highway, An Chengdao drove very fast.

So, when Zhou Kai sensed it, they had already arrived in the range where the group of people were.

Lin Yi hurriedly looked out of the window, and just when he wanted to see those people, a gunshot rang out in the woods.

With a "bang", the shot hit the tire of the bus.

The front of the car suddenly deviated to the left. Fortunately, An Chengdao held the steering wheel tightly, stepped on the brake and adjusted the direction quickly, so that he did not hit the guardrail and stopped the car steadily.

"They have guns!" Lin Yi frowned.

Before leaving the city, Lin Yi and his team had thought about getting a gun.

However, the city was a ranch built according to the living environment of humans, and it was not an easy task to find a gun.

Especially when Lin Yi and his team were already exposed.

So, they took a lot of effort and only found a crossbow.

The cold weapons in their hands met the opponent's hot weapons, and the chances of winning were extremely low.

"Why did they attack us?" Lu Linhai was a little confused.

However, his words made Lin Yi's mind suddenly brighten.

"Could it be because... they thought the people on the bus were aliens?!"

The bus was a means of transportation for transporting high-quality livestock and people, so this group of people would ambush nearby.

They did not have Zhou Kai's ability and could not tell whether the people on the bus were human or alien.

That's why they attacked the tires of the bus and forced it to stop.

"We are humans, not monsters!" Lin Yi hurriedly shouted out of the window, "Don't shoot, there are people in the car, we ran away!"

As Lin Yi shouted, several heads popped out of the woods on both sides.

Then, several people walked out of the woods and slowly approached the bus.

"Is that guy holding a shotgun?" Zhang Cheng noticed the gun in the hands of the leader and whispered to Lin Yi beside him.

"Strange, why is there only one person with a gun, and it's a three-shot 16-gauge semi-automatic shotgun."

Zhang Cheng felt a little strange. According to his idea, since the world has been occupied by aliens, both humans and aliens should get some powerful hot weapons.

Not to mention airplanes, tanks, and cannons, at least they have to get a handy rifle.

However, along the way, not only did they find that the aliens' fighting methods were quite primitive, even if they saw a gun now, it was just a semi-automatic shotgun used for hunting.

Could it be that all the hot weapons were destroyed by the aliens?

Or, were they hidden by the aliens?

Zhang Cheng couldn't figure it out for a while.

"Get out of the car!" The leading man raised the hunting rifle in his hand, and the people behind him were holding cold weapons such as knives and axes.

"What should we do now?" Lu Linhai asked.

Lin Yi thought for a while and said, "Don't get out of the car for now."

Lin Yi glanced at the people around him vigilantly and whispered, "Although they are human beings, we don't know what these people are going to do."

"What if these people are not good people? It's dangerous for us to get out of the car rashly."

"I agree." Zhang Cheng echoed, "Negotiate with them first, if it doesn't work..."

Zhang Cheng glanced at An Cheng and said, "Uncle, can the car still be driven?"

"Yes." An Cheng nodded, "Just now the car body suddenly tilted to the left, it should be the tire of the left front wheel that was damaged by the bullet."

"Although one tire is broken, there is no problem rushing out, it will just be a little bumpy."

"That's fine." Zhang Cheng nodded.

"I'll go negotiate with them." Lin Yi frowned and walked towards the car window.

Lin Yi felt that he was the most suitable person for negotiation. If the other party opened fire, even if Lin Yi was killed, he could go back to the past.

As for the others, they would be gone if they died.

"Brothers, we are all human beings, not monsters." Lin Yi said according to his own guess.

"We ran away from the city and have no ill intentions."

"Get out of the car!" The man with the shotgun ignored Lin Yi, pointed the gun in his hand at Lin Yi, and roared viciously.

"If you don't get out of the car, I will shoot!"

If the other party never spoke, the negotiation would not be established.

If they didn't know what the other party wanted to do by stopping them, then Lin Yi and his men could only rush out.

Lin Yi frowned, and for safety reasons, he decided to let An Chengdao drive out.

But at this moment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded from the crowd that surrounded him.

A man came out of the crowd, walked to the man with the shotgun, and shouted excitedly at Lin Yi.

"Lin Yi! You are Lin Yi, right? Do you still remember me?"

Looking at the person who suddenly appeared, Lin Yi was stunned at first, and then a memory from a few years ago popped up in his mind.
