Chapter 167 Old MacDonald's Farm
Chapter 167 Old MacDonald's Farm
Looking at the crazy Jimmy in front of her, and thinking of Zhou Nan who always had a smile on her face, Beth looked at Jimmy with impatience.
Just as Jimmy was about to step forward and attack, Beth grabbed the dagger on the table and pointed it at Jimmy.
"You'd better calm down. If you dare to hit me again, don't blame me for being rude!"
Jimmy looked at the cold dagger in Beth's hand and suddenly calmed down. Since he learned that Beth's family owned a farm, he has been trying every means to pursue Beth.
Now he is just one step away from success. If he turns against Beth now, all his three years of hard work will be in vain.
Jimmy suppressed his anger and said to Beth, "Let's just let this matter go today, but I want you to understand one thing: I am your fiancé!"
"If you dare to get involved with Zhou Nan again, I will expose your actions to the public. If you don't want others to know, then behave yourself!"
Beth looked at Jimmy who was threatening her and immediately ordered him to leave: "Are you done? If you're done, leave here. I think you need to calm down."
After hearing this, Jimmy slammed the door and left angrily.
After Jimmy left, Beth felt exhausted and collapsed on the bed. From the very beginning, the two of them were not favored by others, especially their father Hershel.
Jimmy gives a good impression in front of others, but only after getting along with him can you know what kind of person he is.
Every time Jimmy gets humiliated by Hershel, he gets angry at Beth. Beth has to endure Jimmy's groundless accusations and try to comfort Jimmy in return.
It was because of the so-called loyalty and doctrine that she was tied to Jimmy.
It was not until Zhou Nan appeared that Beth realized that there were many people better than Jimmy, and she was not married to Jimmy, so why should she be wholeheartedly good to Jimmy?
Beth knew it was somewhat immoral, but morality be damned.
The teachings that Hershel had instilled in her for a long time made her feel constrained. She had always been a rebellious girl. The more others opposed her, the more she resisted. She didn't want to think about anything now. She just felt that the taste of betrayal was very good!
Beth curled up in the bed, thinking of Zhou Nan's bright smile and pleasant smell. Her breathing gradually became heavier, and her hand reached down...
At this moment, all propriety, righteousness, integrity, and sect teachings were thrown out of her mind. She just wanted to sink into it and didn't want to wake up.
Zhou Nan also got into the car at this time. The car was filled with empty oil drums, which were brought from the prison in order to empty all the oil tanks.
Hershel also chose to follow Zhou Nan. He was very familiar with the area and believed that he could help Zhou Nan when necessary.
What they didn't know was that at that moment, at the tanker truck that Otis mentioned, there was a couple with a child filling up the tank. The family had discovered the tank in advance.
They only needed to fill one barrel of oil, but just as they were happily filling it up, a group of people surrounded the family of three.
If Zhou Nan were here, he would definitely find that Randall, who was killed by Sean in the play, and Dave and Tony, who were killed by Rick and whom Hershel met when he went to the bar to drink, were all mixed up in this group of people.
There are about 30 people in this group, and Randall in the play also said so. They all carry large and small bags on their backs because they never stay in one place for too long.
Dave seemed to be the leader of the group. When he saw the family of three, he stepped out from the crowd and said, "Son of a bitch, it looks like we've met a living person."
When the family of three saw Dave and his group, they also looked nervous, "What are you going to do?"
Dave silently looked at the man's wife and daughter, then he took out his pistol and put it on the ground to show his friendliness. "My name is Dave. Don't be nervous. We are both good people."
The man of the house also replied: "My name is Justin."
Seeing that the family of three looked much more relaxed, Dave said, "It seems that you found this oil tank first, but we are also short of fuel. Can you share it with us?"
Justin also said: "Of course, we don't need that much."
Dave also said politely: "Thank you for sharing. Where are you planning to go?"
Justin replied, "We're trying to follow the railroad to Fort Benning."
Dave showed a regretful expression after hearing the answer: "Sir, I have to tell you this sad news."
"We learned from a soldier stationed at Fort Benning that Fort Benning has fallen and is now full of the living dead."
Seeing the three of them looking at him with suspicion, Dave added, "I swear to God, what I said is absolutely true. There is not a single lie."
Justin was convinced by what he saw. He shrugged and replied helplessly, "It seems we can't go to Fort Benning."
Dave also said: "What are you going to do next? Return to the original camp?"
Justin was alarmed. “No, we don’t have a campsite.”
Dave glanced at the family's car and asked, "Is that your car over there?"
Justin nodded: "Yes, the car over there is ours."
Dave laughed: "We live in our car too, and it's always so packed with stuff it's a mess."
"But I see your car is clean and tidy, so where are your luggage and equipment? You're not lying to me, are you?"
"Oh, damn, you're wary of me."
Dave showed a regretful expression, and the family of three also looked nervous. They had been speechless by Dave's words, because they did have a camp.
Seeing that Justin didn't respond, Dave continued to ask, "Are you stationed in the suburbs? Or somewhere else?"
"What else is there around here? There's nothing more than that new residential complex in the suburbs that was built before the disaster. That new community is really nice. I was thinking of buying one before."
"Do you live there?"
Dave observed their expressions and shook his head in frustration. "It seems not. Do you live on a farm?"
Dave started singing as he asked, "Old MacDonald had a fucking big ranch. It was fucking big."
The family's faces also turned ugly because Dave had already guessed where their camp was.
"So, you live on a farm!" Dave said this time with a clear tone of certainty.
"You know, life is tough these days. It's hard for everyone out there to survive. We've all done things we had to do to stay alive."
"You know, no one in this world has clean hands. I bet you've done those nasty things too. You know what I'm talking about."
"So, I hope you can know that I really don't want to do those things, but all of this is based on your honest confession."
"We can share manpower and resources, and we can live together under the same roof and in harmony."
"So come on, let's hold hands, ride happily on the tractor to the farm, and get to know each other."
