This is apocalyptic

Chapter 128 127: Two Years Old

Ever since she kissed him through his clothes that day, Lin Duoduo has kept a distance from him in some aspects, for example, she will not get too close to him.

Bai Xiao didn't care. He was also afraid that Lin Duoduo would really turn into a zombie. If the two of them were together and something unexpected happened, it would be too late for regret.

After tidying up the tricycle, he pushed it out the door wearing a helmet, and the human followed behind. Once they were on the road, she pushed it from behind for a while, and when they passed the difficult rural dirt road and the front was free to pass, she sat on the truck bed.

The desolate land is now full of vitality, and tricycles are traveling in the deserted wilderness.

Passing by a large clump of wild flowers on the roadside, she pulled one and wanted to pin it on the zombie's head, but the zombie king was wearing a helmet, so she had to pin it on her ear, feeling the breeze in the fields and gazing at the shadowy shadows of the green mountains behind her.

“Are there a lot of tricycles in the safe zone?”

"They drive cars, those iron-shell cars on the roadside. Theirs are new and not scrapped. They can make two trips a day by just stepping on the accelerator. If it were a truck, they could carry a lot of things in one trip." Bai Xiao said.

"How about we sneak one back?"

"It needs to be refueled and charged. If you take it back, it will just be scrap metal. Besides, how could they let you take it? They have so many people and so many guns."

Bai Xiao occasionally told her about the safe zone, that humans should live together with other humans.

Maybe many years later, he is farming alone in this small mountain village, and Lin Duoduo will recall that there was a zombie she rescued who warmed her feet in the winter.

When the safe zone is expanded here, she will definitely come.

It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t come, after all, he’s just a stinky zombie.

Bai Xiao adjusted his helmet and looked back. She had a small white flower in her ear and was sitting on the truck bed, hugging her knees and looking at the fields in the distance.

Lin Duoduo didn't feel bad at all about eating the supplies she found in the city, but as long as they were transported back home and stored, she became stingy. I don't know what kind of mentality this is.

"I'm twenty-two years old, how about you?" Lin Duoduo asked.

"I'm eighteen." Bai Xiao said.

Lin Duoduo knocked on his helmet, making a thud.

"The age of zombies is different from that of humans. To be precise, I am two years old now." said the Zombie King.

"Call me mom." Lin Duoduo pouted.

"You might as well call me daddy."

Lin Duoduo remained silent.

Bai Xiao reacted and was about to speak when she said, "You look a lot like my father."

"is it?"

"He would also go out to look for supplies, to find shelter, and to wrap thick leather around his arms."

Lin Duoduo hugged her knees and looked at the small mountain village in the distance that was gradually becoming blurred. "They said that in the future there will be the same person who will accompany me and go to the shelter with me, and I will find hope."

But they didn't say it would be a zombie.

"It's normal to have a small error." Bai Xiao said. He didn't know how to comfort this human. The expected companion turned into a zombie. Fate played a huge joke on him.

"They are not entirely right." Lin Duoduo raised her head and breathed a sigh of relief.

The supplies in the town had long been moved away by the survivors from earlier years, and the empty buildings looked like dilapidated graves, some collapsed and some covered with weeds.

Lin Duoduo remembers that there used to be a very big thing. Her family said it was a Ferris wheel, standing in the direction of the park. A few years ago it was still standing in the distance, but now it is gone. No one knows when it collapsed.

Everything left before the disaster was slowly disappearing. When they arrived in the city, Bai Xiao jumped out of the car, loaded the iron wire that he had not taken away last time and the useful parts he had dismantled from the hardware store and the car shop, and then walked around the ruined high-rise building with Lin Duoduo.

There was a rocking car at the entrance of the supermarket, but it couldn't be rocked anymore. It had faded due to wind and rain and became dilapidated. Bai Xiao wanted her to sit on it and rock it for a few times, but Lin Duoduo refused. She stared at the broken thing, wondering what it was used for.

There are also claw machines inside, some of which have broken glass, but some are still in good condition, like the zero-yuan purchases. Bai Xiao can just pick up a stick and smash it, and then take out the old dolls from inside.

Lin Duoduo is not interested in this thing, but the Zombie King himself likes it very much. He holds a doll of a vegetable dog. These things before the disaster can make him feel that he is really alive, just like Yu Ming. It is like a memory placed there.

Lin Duoduo would never understand the significance of a little plastic man to people before the disaster. It was the link between two eras and the prosperity that had passed away.

Many people like to collect old things, which carry memories rather than the things themselves.

"This should be sister Qiong." Bai Xiao found a little figure that was relatively intact.

"Who is Sister Qiong?" Lin Duoduo frowned.

"It's... um... a..."

It was difficult for the Zombie King to explain to her the scene of people, entrance and people, so he just put away the little man in white clothes and silver hair and took him with him for the time being. If he passed by Yu Ming's place one day, he was sure that the old man would like him.

"I always feel that you know a lot of things." Lin Duoduo said, looking at him.

"You can think of me as a zombie before the disaster."

"Is that so?"

Were there zombies before the disaster? Lin Duoduo didn't know, she just watched him find some useless things.

She also wandered around casually. To her, the world before the disaster seemed like another world, and many things left in the ruins were useless.

"Here!"

Bai Xiao raised his hands mysteriously and opened them. A gold necklace hung from his hands.

Lin Duoduo looked at him expressionlessly.

"Gold necklace, do you want it? I took it from a zombie's neck."

After saying this, the Zombie King felt a little beastly and took the necklace from the zombie's neck and gave it to the human.

Lin Duoduo reached out to take it. There was a small flower on the necklace, simple, with only four leaves.

"This is called a four-leaf clover, and it represents luck." Bai Xiao said.

"Why did Lucky turn into a zombie?" Lin Duoduo asked.

"Maybe... becoming a zombie is a kind of luck." The Zombie King said nonsense, "Wait until I go back and wash myself, and then I'll look good again."

Lin Duoduo put away the gold four-leaf clover necklace that she had taken from the zombie's neck.

"This is what scavenging is like."

The Zombie King walked in front, and Lin Duoduo followed behind. Many buildings were dark and poorly lit. Before the disaster, they needed constant lighting, but now there was no electricity or lights, and it was dark even in broad daylight.

With more supplies in stock, he began to like wandering around in the city ruins. Perhaps he gradually got used to the quietness. Two years ago, he would not have been able to adapt to it at all.

The environment has a huge impact on people. This is a belated integration. Many people have gone through this stage after the disaster, from holding on to hope, to gradually getting used to it, to recognizing everything, and starting a new life down to earth.

People have to live, even if they become zombies, just like our ancient ancestors faced nature, they either had to change or adapt.
