Chapter 867 Daryl Dixon (21)
Daryl looked at Yun Ci, and his meaning was very clear, he didn't want Yun Ci to agree.
At least not now.
"I think it's better to protect yourself than to wait for others to rescue you." Yun Ci said, "We would like to help, but there are only two of us. We can't do much."
"We have people in our community." Aaron said quickly, "We just hope you are willing to teach us some skills to deal with the zombies."
Yun Ci touched his chin and asked: "Can your people shoot arrows?"
“We can learn!”
"That's it," Yun Ci said, "We'll teach you archery, and you come here to kill zombies from a distance, OK?"
Aaron nodded repeatedly to indicate OK.
Daryl is not feeling well. He feels that if things continue like this, he and Yun Ci will be in trouble in the end.
But Yun Ci had already agreed, so Daryl couldn't say anything else. He could only follow Yun Ci and said, "We are only responsible for teaching. As for whether you want to save yourself, that's your business."
Aaron said of course, that's what they should have done.
Alexander was just like in the plot. As for entering the door and handing over his weapons, Yun Ci refused.
"Zombies may come out from there at any time." Yun Ci smiled and said, "I hope you can understand. Otherwise, we don't have to go in."
You have to go in.
Aaron decided to let them in first, and said with a serious expression: "This matter is urgent. I need to see Diana. These two people are the helpers I invited back."
The guard stopped under Aaron's gaze, and Aaron successfully brought Yunci and Daryl into Alexandria.
Yunci and Daryl went to Aaron's house first and were entertained by Aaron's boyfriend. Aaron then quickly went to find Diana, the person in charge of Alexandria.
"Hey, I'm Eric, welcome to Alexandria."
"Uh, obviously we're not very happy."
Daryl glanced around the room expressionlessly, and then was pulled down by Yun Ci.
"I'm sorry to involve you. Aaron has told me everything that happened. Thank you for your willingness to help."
Daryl didn't say anything, and Yun Ci took over the conversation.
"You're welcome. We are only teaching you archery. We don't have the ability to kill the zombies directly."
"I heard there are tens of thousands of zombies there."
"If this continues, it will probably only increase, not decrease."
"Oh, my God..."
While they were talking about the zombie horde, Aaron and Diana were also discussing the same thing over there.
Diana trusted Aaron very much, but the huge group of zombies...it was really hard for her to believe unless she saw it with her own eyes.
“I think everyone in the community would think the same.”
Aaron could only take Diana and several representatives selected by the residents to the location of the giant pit.
The roaring and ever-increasing zombies made several people weak in the knees, and one of them almost fell into the huge pit.
Several people ran back without stopping.
After seeing this doomsday-like scene, Yun Ci was not at all surprised to feel despair.
But in the end, under Aaron's persuasion, they chose to face it.
They have no choice but to face it. They will still die after the zombies break through the truck, just a little later.
If you resist now, you still have a chance to survive.
Besides, didn't the helper Aaron invited back say that they only had to stand and shoot arrows from a distance?
Most of the residents living in Alexandria come from wealthy families, and most of them have learned archery as a hobby.
"Those who know how to shoot arrows, come here to practice. Those who don't know how to shoot arrows, continue to cut down trees and bring them back for the elderly and children to make into arrows." Yun Ci said, "Time is tight, so there is no need to make the arrows so fine. Just sharpen the tip so that it can penetrate the zombies' heads."
Such arrows cannot be shot far, so you have to get closer when attacking the zombies.
In order to survive, all of Alexander's men worked together, and at this time, no one dared to fall behind.
Their morale soared after they killed hundreds of zombies with these shabby arrows.
A group of people work in shifts and start working as soon as they open their eyes every day.
When most of the trees around Alexander were cut down, all the zombies below were killed by arrows. Some of the zombies looked a bit like hedgehogs.
This huge pit filled with the corpses of tens of thousands of people is still very shocking.
Yun Ci was speechless for a moment.
She was really curious about what this virus was and where it came from.
But at the end of this story, there is still no clear conclusion.
We still live in this world with zombies.
【This is the process of this world.】
People live in safe communities, but outside is a dangerous world with zombies.
They also clean up the zombies.
There is a precise number of humans in the world, and the zombies that have evolved from these humans will eventually disappear completely.
By then, although humans will still turn into zombies after death, it seems that they will not be a threat to them.
Maybe one day, the zombies will be designated as a ‘rare species’ by the remaining humans?
Uh, I told a joke, and it wasn't very funny.
"There are too many zombies. It's definitely not okay to leave them like this. Not to mention the mosquitoes and the smell, there are also many diseases that will be caused by their decaying corpses. Now is not the right time to get sick."
Aaron suddenly realized, "So you buried every zombie you killed along the way."
"That's also the reason. In my country, people believe in 'resting in peace'. I just want them to be completely 'at peace'."
Not leaving trouble for future generations is also a form of peace.
"This truck is here, and it's hard for us to get in. Maybe we can just bury it in the pit?"
If that's the case, one pit for each person might not be enough.
"This pit is Alexander's natural defense line. I think you can clear it out. It will be very convenient to come here regularly to clean up the zombies." Yun Ci said, "Anyway, you have already learned the craft of making bows and arrows."
"Thank you for your help." Diana said gratefully to Yunci and Daryl, "We will always remember your kindness, and Alexandria will always welcome you to join us."
In this cleanup, Daryl contributed the most effort. Perhaps the crossbow and the bow and arrow have something in common. Each of his arrows can accurately knock down a zombie.
Therefore, Daryl gained a lot of little fans in Alexandria, and there were people following him wherever he went.
Yun Ci looked at Daryl and smiled, holding his arm: "What do you mean? We've been away for more than half a year. Rick and the others must be worried about us."
"Uh, didn't you say that you would help people to the end?"
"It seems that you want to take part in the burial."
Daryl raised his hand and rubbed the small mole at the corner of Yun Ci's mouth.
"I was infected by you."
I guess everyone is like this, led by Yun Ci. They always feel that if they kill a zombie but don’t bury it, something will be missing, and they will always remember that there is a zombie that has not been buried yet.
"There are so many here, it's an incredible amount of work. By the time we finish cleaning it up, it will definitely be winter."
Traveling in winter was too painful, so Yunci chose to spend the winter in Alexandria Cat before setting off again.
Return to Atlanta.
