This is apocalyptic

Chapter 230 229: Exploration

"Do you believe her?"

"I don't trust anyone."

"What should we do? Go back and shoot her?"

"That's too cruel."

Night fell, and the last bit of light was swallowed up by the darkness.

Ge Xia groped in the dark and huddled in the corner of an abandoned store. There was a broken refrigerator in the room. She had just checked and found that it was empty. If there was any noise at night, she could hide inside.

Everything that happened during the day seemed like a dream. She suddenly felt a sense of unreality.

Such a big zombie, it would be hard to breathe if you were stared at by its red eyes, but it would still carry a human on its back and walk in the ruins.

The woman called him 'brother'.

He even dared to lie on its back and knock on its iron helmet.

Ge Xia held the knife, leaned against the cold wall, staring blankly at the dark night sky outside the window. He felt as if he had a dream. In such an environment, how could there be such a beautiful woman, like the ones in those photos?
She was so clean, so pretty, not skinny, so well-proportioned, and her face had a healthy glow.

As soon as he closed his eyes, the image of a woman wearing a yellow coat and holding a gun appeared before Ge Xia's eyes.

And that horrible monster.

The moon came out in the second half of the night. She smelled the fresh scent after the rain, looked up, and saw the bright jade disk through the window. It was as clean and bright as if it had been washed by water.

Her stomach growled twice, and she curled up, hid in a corner, and forced herself to sleep.

Everything seems like a dream.

But... survived.

The nights in the city were very quiet. The zombies made no noise when they moved around, and their presence could only be detected by their occasional roars.

When it was dawn, Ge Xia came out of the abandoned hut. The ground was still a little wet. He looked at the wide old street, hesitated for a moment, and gave up the idea of ​​going deeper. He listened to the woman's reminder - there was a dangerous monster in the ditch ahead.

Perhaps the goddess came here specifically to warn her.

Many stories have this kind of plot:

When there is danger ahead, a god, a spirit, or a white fox will come to remind you that you can’t go forward or people will die.

So Ge Xia turned around and stopped moving forward, and instead searched the old house next door.

After staying in the city for another two days, the woman riding the monster was no longer seen. There were only some scattered zombies, staggering slowly in the ruins of the buildings. She carried a rag bag on her back and explored the area cautiously and carefully.

Occasionally change the route to avoid large groups of zombies.

You have to guard against not only zombies, but also other scavengers.

But Ge Xia didn't notice the tall figure between the buildings in the distance.

Two days later she headed out of the city. It took her most of the day to walk from here to the edge of the city. In the afternoon she was getting farther and farther away from the tall and short houses.

The further you go out, the fewer tall buildings there are, and the fewer zombies there are. After twenty years of wind, frost, rain and snow, only many zombies remain in the depths of the city, occasionally wandering out.

Bai Xiao followed her for two days before he saw her open a manhole cover and go into the basement on the edge of a dilapidated town.

She lives underground.

This is a good place. At least there is no need to worry about crazy flocks of birds rushing over. It was also one of the options he had prepared for Lin Duoduo, but the dim underground was too depressing.

——There is no lie, and there is indeed no group. She is just a lucky person who is still struggling after her sister's death.

Bai Xiao walked around the area, but his tall figure made little noise. He walked around this run-down town. There were a few hyenas living in the other corner. The girl was in the northernmost corner, and they lived together in the southeast corner of the town, without interfering with each other.

There were no wheel tracks or traces outside the town.

After expanding the scope of his wandering and wandering alone for two days, Bai Xiao finally rushed back to the city center.

By the time I got back, almost six days had passed.

Lin Duoduo lived alone in the castle and was not affected much - the de-zombie life was enough to support her hiding in a high-rise building for half a month or even a month, until the water in the tank was used up and the accumulated water in the pool seeped and evaporated.

It was unknown when Bai Xiao came back. When Lin Duoduo woke up in the morning, she found him by her side. She had one leg on the zombie's waist and was being touched by the zombie's hand.

She knew that she was awake, and the zombie would wake up immediately. This was the habit of zombies. They could sense any slight movement. They were in between sleeping and not sleeping. If there was no movement, they were asleep, and once there was movement, they were awake again.

So Lin Duoduo didn't move, just lying there, wanting him to rest for a while. After lying there for a long time, she couldn't help but touch the zombie's flank. The strong muscles felt good to the touch, making people a little reluctant to let go. The zombie was really strong.

"You pervert Duoduo." Bai Xiao didn't open his eyes, but just held her hand.

"When did you come back?" Lin Duoduo asked softly.

"Late last night."

In fact, it was not like this before. She was also a very vigilant person and would wake up at any movement. If a zombie just knocked on the window at night, she would immediately come out with a gun.

It is still the same now, but Bai Xiao strangely doesn't wake her up.

Lin Duoduo sat up, put on her coat, and while combing her hair, she asked, "Did you see any traces of those people?"

"No."

"What did you see?"

"The environment is indeed better than that in Linchuan, and that person didn't lie."

"That's good."

Seeing his expression, Lin Duoduo didn't ask any more questions.

This trip allowed me to understand the surrounding environment and whether there are any large settlements around Changhai.

It's too easy to hide in the ruins.

Even in Linchuan, it took nearly a year to find it because of a forest fire.

Bai Xiao took Lin Duoduo across the river and left, then chose a direction heading south. There are many cities around Linchuan, so it is not easy to find them. They may have gone to the mountains to look for them.

"Have you encountered any danger these days?" Bai Xiao asked.

"No, this building is pretty solid."

She got out of bed, walked barefoot to the window, opened the curtains, and the early morning sunlight poured in.

Looking out from here, there are lush plants on the streets between the tall and short buildings, the leaves of the big trees rustle, occasionally the shadows of birds flying up and down in the distance, and the figures of zombies wandering in the grass.

A thriving scene.

There are not many survivors on this land, but there are quite a few too. There are always lucky ones who are still lingering on, and they are just one of them.

Sometimes, not having any intersection is the greatest kindness.

"You know, if that group of people came, would those innocent survivors they found really be rescued by them?" Lin Duoduo suddenly asked.

"Who knows."
