The Walking Dead TWD

Chapter 165 Friendly Hershel

Zhou Nan smiled and rejected Hershel's kindness, "Forget it, I can't ride a horse."

Hershel thought for a moment, then said to Zhou Nan, "This is easy. I'll ask Beth to teach you tomorrow. Although Beth looks a little weak, she's an expert on horseback riding. I think with Beth's personal instruction, you'll be able to master the essence of horseback riding quickly."

Zhou Nan had a strange expression on his face. "Thank you, Hershel. I really want to see your daughter's horseback riding skills."

Hershel always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on that strange feeling. Fortunately, the voice from Zhou Nan's radio interrupted Hershel's thoughts.

"Both trucks are already full. Should we transport these supplies back?"

Zhou Nan also responded: "It's full so quickly? Good efficiency, worthy of praise. Double rewards for everyone today!"

"Since it's fully loaded, you can go back and empty the supplies before returning. I won't be following you back. Please be careful on the road."

"But it looks like there are a lot of supplies here. You can drive an extra truck here to load the goods."

After Zhou Nan finished speaking, someone on the radio immediately responded, "It's probably going to be difficult to drive another car over here. We're running low on gas right now. We'll probably run out of gas in three more round trips."

Zhou Nan thought for a moment. Insufficient gasoline was indeed a big problem. However, Zhou Nan suddenly remembered that there were quite a few tanker trucks parked at the terminal. However, Zhou Nan was not very clear about the situation there and needed to think carefully.

"Forget it, you guys just do the haul first. I'll figure out the oil issue after you come back."

After ending the call, Zhou Nan fell into deep thought, and Maggie and Hershel tactfully did not disturb Zhou Nan.

But soon, Zhou Nan arrived at Hershel's residence, where a fat man was squatting on the ground, and it seemed that he was processing his prey.

This person is Otis. In the play, he is the one who accidentally hit Carl while hunting deer. When he saw a stranger here and Hershel also had a kind attitude towards this person, he also released his kindness.

Zhou Nan admired Otis for his courage in taking responsibility for his mistakes in the play, so he said a few words to him. Seeing Zhou Nan frowning, Otis asked him what difficulties he had encountered.

Out of courtesy, Zhou Nan simply told Otis that they were currently short of fuel, but he didn't expect that just this one sentence would allow Otis to do him a big favor!

Otis secretly told Zhou Nan that when he was hunting, he found a train with oil tankers on the railroad tracks west of the farm, which might contain a lot of fuel.

Zhou Nan also quickly arranged manpower and prepared to wait for people to come back to fetch fuel. If the effective volume of the double-compartment tanker truck can reach 40 cubic meters, then the volume of the tank transported by train will be no less than that!

One cubic meter is 1000 liters, so this large tank of fuel contains at least liters of fuel, which is enough for Zhou Nan and his team to consume for a long time!

If what Otis said was true, then it really helped Zhou Nan a lot!

Otis and Patricia are husband and wife. To thank Otis, Zhou Nan asked someone in prison to bring some small gifts to the couple.

Some brand-name clothes and two brand-name watches brought back from the mall.

Otis expressed his gratitude to Zhou Nan. Before the disaster day, he and his wife could not buy even one of these things even if they saved for several years. They were shocked by Zhou Nan's "generosity".

However, Zhou Nan said that these were small gifts that were not worth mentioning. If Otis really solved the problem of oil shortage, Zhou Nan would give Otis a big gift in the future.

That is to invite him to join the prison and provide him with food for a month!

However, this proposal requires dealing with the stubborn old man Hershel first, and Zhou Nan did not tell Otis in advance.

In the cabin on the other side, the light-bodied Beth was thrown roughly onto the bed. Beth looked at Jimmy with an expression of disbelief.

"Jimmy, what's wrong with you!"

Beth couldn't believe that Jimmy, who was usually friendly and helpful, would be so rude to her.

Jimmy closed the door and locked it, and Beth suddenly became panicked.

Jimmy growled in a suppressed voice, "Beth, I've been so good to you, are you going to abandon me? Zhou Nan just got here, and he's already taken your heart away?"

Beth stood up angrily after hearing this. The weak girl actually slapped Jimmy with all her strength: "Jimmy, you'd better respect me. Look at what nonsense you are saying. I was just talking to Zhou Nan normally!"

"We will have our wedding next year, and I will be yours completely. Why are you jealous?"

Jimmy covered his face, then laughed: "Beth, we've been together for three years, and even after such a long time, you actually spoke to an outsider!"

Jimmy pushed Beth down on the bed and roughly controlled Beth's hands with his big hands.

"Aren't you aloof? Normally, you always refuse me when I want to kiss you. Today, I not only want to kiss you, I also want to sleep with you!"

Beth kept struggling. She was really panicked. This place was far away from her father Hershel's residence. Even if she shouted, she would not attract anyone's attention.

Beth kept begging: "Jimmy, listen to me, I shouldn't have praised Zhou Nan today, okay? I apologize to you."

Jimmy also became angry, and the force of his blow increased. "Sure enough, you just saw that he had the ability to buy the farm, and then you had other ideas. I really misjudged you!"

Beth struggled, constantly pushing Jimmy with her hands: "You can't do this to me, I swear I'm sincere to you, I'm really just communicating normally with Zhou Nan!"

"Then devote yourself to me and prove it to me!" Jimmy reached down and tried to go further. Beth also desperately pulled her pants to prevent Jimmy from succeeding.

"Jimmy, please don't do this. I'm scared of my first time. Can you please not push me? I'm not mentally ready yet."

But Jimmy suddenly heard Hershel's voice coming from outside the house.

"Why is your dad here at this time!" Jimmy's expression suddenly became panicked.

When Beth saw Jimmy let go of her hand, she quickly hid under the quilt and looked at Jimmy trembling.

She didn't know why Jimmy suddenly went crazy today, and even forced herself to have sex with him against her will. She was extremely scared at the moment.

Jimmy suddenly seemed like a different person, his tone completely different from before: "Beth, I'm sorry, I shouldn't force you, but I really love you. You won't tell this ugly thing to others, right?"

After hesitating for a while, Beth nodded. After all, they had been together for three years and had an emotional foundation. She just thought that Jimmy was a little emotional this time.

Beth likes the traditional marriage culture of Longguo very much. She believes that the first time should be given to her husband on the wedding day. That represents loyalty, purity and is also romantic.

She has always felt guilty towards Jimmy. After all, she had been with him for three years, but he had never succeeded once. So when Jimmy exploded this time, she chose to be patient.

Besides, if Hershel knew that Jimmy treated him like this, he would definitely be driven away by his father, which was not what he wanted to see.

"Jimmy, don't let your imagination run wild. I will be yours sooner or later. After this winter, it will be the day for you and me to get married."

After hearing what Beth said, Jimmy also showed a doting smile: "Okay, Beth, I'll listen to you."

Seeing Jimmy return to his previous state, Beth felt relieved.

After Jimmy finished speaking, he opened the locked door of the room and waited for Hershel to come. But what made him angry was that Hershel actually brought Zhou Nan, a kid, to Beth.

Hershel's face turned pale when he saw Jimmy in Beth's room.

"Boy, didn't I tell you not to stay in the same room with Beth? You're ignoring my words. Do you believe I'm going to break your legs?"

Jimmy smiled awkwardly, "You misunderstood, I just have something to do with Beth, I'm leaving now."

Hershel's expression improved a lot, "Well, that's better."

When Hershel turned to look at Zhou Nan, his attitude took a 180-degree turn.

Hershel just smiled and said something that made Jimmy's blood rush to his body.

"There's no room over there, so you can stay at Beth's place for now. Don't rush back. Stay at the farm for a couple of days. Beth will tell you everything about it, and tomorrow she'll teach you how to ride a horse..."

Zhou Nan also kept agreeing: "Mr. Hershel, thank you for your kindness, everything is up to you!"

Jimmy felt a black screen before his eyes and he almost fell to the ground.
