Chapter 233 - 229 This is Unscientific
The convoy had passed Bishkek from a distance, without stopping anywhere near the city.
Zhao Qiang was right; on their way, Gao Yuan and his group encountered zombies three times, but they were just scattered ones. The vehicles didn’t even stop; the trucks in front just plowed straight through them.
In the dead of night, the convoy stopped near a desolate gas station.
Following along the Ala-Tau mountain range, the area wasn’t uninhabited, but the density of villages couldn’t compare to the domestic situation. It wasn’t a no-man’s land, but it was still sparsely populated. After leaving the area near Bishkek where villages were relatively clustered, it would be dozens of kilometers before encountering another village.
When they came across a roadside gas station, it was certain they would stop to rest. Most importantly, they needed to see if there was any diesel left in the tanks.
As usual, it was Gao Yuan who scouted, and the result was predictable; the gas station was empty, not a person in sight.
The building was intact, and this was just a simple gas station with a small selection of merchandise for sale, but there was nothing left. A few cars that had long been abandoned were strewn beside the station.
After parking the vehicles and everyone alighted, everyone’s legs wobbled a bit.
"We’ll rest here for the night, everyone get some good rest. Liu Deguang, come with me to check if there’s any fuel left in the tanks."
For some reason, ever since the small incident in Almaty, Zhao Qiang had stopped giving orders. Although there wasn’t anything important going on, he had previously been the one instructing everyone on what to do, but now, he acted as if nothing was the matter, not saying a word.
