It was dark at night, and a group of people stumbled along the bumpy dirt road. They were tired but did not dare to stop, because once they stopped, they would be swamped by the dense swarm of zombies behind them.
"Qingyun, please think of a way quickly, the boss won't be able to hold on if this continues." A gentle and quiet-looking woman anxiously shouted towards Dai Qingyun.
They have been on the run for an entire afternoon, and if they don't think of a way, not only the injured boss, but also them will be unable to bear it. Zombies are dead creatures. They don't know tiredness or pain. As long as there is the smell of blood, they will pursue them relentlessly.
"How are you, boss?" Dai Qingyun, who was walking at the front, slowed down and walked to Tantai Yan.
"You can't die yet, but you're bleeding too much. By the way, have your powers recovered? If so, heal the boss as soon as possible." Another heroic-looking woman made way for Dai Qingyun.
"My aunt Yingmei, please stop urging her. No matter how much you urge her, she won't be able to recover so quickly." When Dai Qingyun mentioned the supernatural power, he shed tears of sadness for himself.
Since his power awakened, he has been healing his boss while escaping, but his power is only a little bit, and he can't recover quickly after using it up. He can only wait for time to replenish naturally.
"Why are you so useless!" Seeing his grimace, Feng Yingmei couldn't help but kick him lightly.
Normally he is just a fool, but at this critical moment he is actually completely unreliable.
"Okay!" Ji Ruohai, who has always been calm in his behavior, shouted to Feng Yingmei in a low voice. Everyone was anxious when something happened to the boss, but Qingyun had already tried his best. She would only make everyone more panicked by letting her anger out like this. "First think of a way to get rid of her behind. The zombies, the boss’s injury cannot be sustained by Qingyun alone, we have to find ways to find medicine.”
"But we don't have anything in our hands, how can we get rid of them?" As soon as Ji Ruohai finished speaking, a voice as clear and clear as the cry of an oriole quickly took over, "There is only one road here, and we wanted to use blood before. Didn’t we also fail in luring away the zombies?”
Her short words caused everyone to fall into a terrible silence.
One afternoon, they tried all the methods that needed to be tried. The car broke down halfway and there was not much gas left. Except for a few who were burned to death by gasoline, the zombies behind them did not decrease at all.
Their physical strength was limited. In order to reduce the load, not to mention the guns that lacked ammunition, even the most important food was only high-calorie chocolate and easy-to-carry compressed biscuits.
"Brother, let's climb the mountain overnight." The weak woman who had been carrying Tantai Banquet suddenly said, "If we continue like this, we will only get slower and slower, but it is different on the mountain. The zombies' limbs are stiff. As long as there are trees, it will be fine. Stop them well.”
Her voice was just like her appearance, but her determined tone and resolute demeanor were completely different.
"Do you have enough physical strength to bear it?" Ji Ruohai stared into her eyes for final confirmation after hearing this.
It wasn't that he hadn't thought about climbing over the mountain, but it was just plains all the way before, and then he saw the mountain and worried that Ruoyun's body wouldn't be able to bear it. Although he and Dai Qingyun were men, they took turns carrying Tantai Banquet and walked for three or four hours without stopping. It's already the limit.
"Brother, I can do it." Ji Ruoyun answered affirmatively. She had no other changes after the apocalypse, except that her strength became stronger. She couldn't carry an adult man on her back before, but now she feels she still has enough strength.
"Okay, since you said it's okay, let's go up the mountain immediately." Ji Ruohai is not a person without decisions. He knows that this method is the best at present.
If it weren't for him, the boss wouldn't be hurt, so no matter what, he would take Tantai Yan and everyone to escape.
It was so dark on the mountain at night that they couldn't see the path under their feet without lighting equipment. In the end, they could only fumble forward based on their own intuition.
With hundreds of zombies behind her and a rugged mountain road in front of her, Qi Xin felt that she could never imagine such a scene in her life, but it all happened in front of her eyes.
She walked mechanically and numbly. She had no feeling at all in her feet. She was very tired and wanted to sit down regardless, but she quickly became timid after looking at the zombies behind her. She was afraid of death, pain, and dirt. On weekdays, she was afraid of death. She has a lot of fans, but now there is no one except disgusting zombies and teammates who completely ignore her charm.
"Everyone, be careful. As long as we climb over this mountain, we can have a good rest." Ji Ruohai, who saw everyone stumbling, reminded everyone in a low voice.
It was good that he didn't make a sound. As soon as he made a sound, Qi Xin, who was lost in thought, slipped and rolled down with a "bang bang bang".
"Ahhhh!" As she rolled, a long series of piercing screams resounded throughout the forest.
"Brother, did you hear anything?" Feinuo, who was lying on the blanket, looking at the starry sky and eating fruit, couldn't help but move her ears and asked Fu Cheng, who was sitting cross-legged.
"I heard it." As a person with superpowers, Fu Cheng's five senses are only more outstanding than Fei Nuo's. Since she can hear it, how could he not hear it, "It's a woman's voice. There are people on the mountain, and there are zombies." Howl.”
"Oh." Feinuo didn't move, just lay on the spot and responded obediently.
"Fei Fei doesn't want to save people?" Looking at his completely indifferent sister, Fu Cheng felt helpless. Before the end of the world, he felt that the reborn Fei Nuo had not changed much, but after the end of the world, he realized that this was not the case.
Except for him, his father, and Mother Chen, others simply didn't exist in her eyes, and because they didn't exist she could ignore their injuries or even death.
Just like now, she could obviously save people, but she just didn't do anything.
The awakened animals chirped, and the owl's owl's owl occasionally came from deep in the forest.
Qi Xin lay prone on the ground. The various sounds in her ears made her hair stand on end, but she did not dare to move. She was afraid that if she moved, the branches supporting her would break with a "click".
"Axin, are you okay?" No more harsh screams were heard, Feng Yingmei stood there and asked tentatively.
"No...it's okay." Qi Xin's weak voice came from below.
"As long as it's okay, just stay there for now. Ruohai and I will come down to pick you up." Feng Yingmei said and took the lead in climbing down. Although she looked down on Qi Xin and thought she was squeamish and vain, after all, they have been sisters for many years. Maybe leave her alone.
Qi Xin didn't hear what she said clearly, her attention was focused on her body. She lay motionless, and through the layers of treetops, she could see zombies constantly raising their claws towards her.
Their nails were black, and every time their rotten and purple arms were raised, they were only half a finger away from her nose.
Time seemed to be slowed down step by step. Qi Xin, who was almost collapsed, felt her body getting stiffer and stiffer. She began to be in a trance, and her pupils changed from constriction at the beginning to laxity.
"Come, hold my hand." I don't know how long it had passed before a voice finally reached her ears.
She didn't have time to think, so she grabbed the other person's hand like a reflex. At first she held it weakly, and after a while she tightened it tighter and tighter, until her nails dug into the other person's skin, and she barely regained some sense of security.
The two quickly worked together to pull Qi Xin up.
"How's it going? Are you injured anywhere?" Feng Yingmei asked with concern as soon as the danger came into contact.
Qi Xin was numb. Although she was not injured, she did not want to make any response. If it weren't for Ji Ruoyun's suggestion of climbing over the mountain and they unanimously agreed, how could she have rolled down and almost been scratched by the zombies, so they should take care of her.
"Axin, you..." Feng Yingmei was unhappy when her wrist was almost broken when she didn't say anything.
"Okay." Ji Ruohai didn't have the energy to listen to the two arguing. He had been tired for a day and just wanted to climb over the mountain quickly and then rest to find medicine.
By the time the seven people came down from the mountain in embarrassment, it was already dark, and the thin morning sun cast a circle of light halo on the clear river.
"Brother, there's someone over there." Ji Ruoyun was the first to notice the situation not far away. After a night of toil, they looked ragged, with countless scrapes and scratches on their bodies.
"You guys just wait here, I'll go over and take a look." In just a few days of the end of the world, Ji Ruohai could no longer believe in people's hearts.
In the city, he has seen too many people who are unscrupulous in eating. In order to survive, they will change their wives and children, and even push their loved ones to death without hesitation.
And people like them who have temporarily lost the ability to protect themselves are most easily used as human shields by ordinary people.
"Hey, I finally came down from the mountain after spending a whole night." When he saw Ji Ruohai, who was pale and his steps were soft, Fu Cheng couldn't help but speak out first.
In the past few days, at Feinuo's request, they walked to sparsely populated areas. This was the first time they met other people.
"...Hello." Ji Ruohai greeted Fu Cheng dryly while looking at Fu Cheng carefully.
In fact, it was very rude for him to do this to people he met for the first time, but at this point he had to do it. Not only was his own life weighing on him, he was also weighing down his friends, relatives and Tantai Banquet.
Fu Cheng nodded without avoiding his gaze.
"I am Ji Ruohai, and they are my teammates. We were besieged by zombies last night and we finally escaped. If it is convenient, can you take us in for a while." After roughly confirming Fu Cheng's character, Ji Ruohai said shamelessly Open your mouth.
Fu Cheng shrugged and said he couldn't make the decision, then lowered his eyes slightly and looked behind him: "What do you think, Concubine?"
Feinuo, who was still lying on the blanket, didn't want to pay attention to him. It was none of her business whether these people stayed or left. She stood up to leave, but inadvertently caught a glimpse of Ji Ruoyun's body.
