This is apocalyptic

Chapter 236 235: A Wall

Just as I said that this place was more suitable for living than the mountain village, I saw corpses floating all over the ground.

The dead and the living were submerged in the accumulated water. When the zombies fell, they had to struggle and squirm in the water.

There were too many dead zombies in the city, and the accumulated water floated up their bones and into the community.

When it rained heavily, the little monster would occasionally take a piece of cake and chew it, and he would still have fun even when he was soaked.

The Zombie King braved the rain and lifted the manhole covers in the community, but this could only provide temporary relief. As long as the rain did not stop, the old drainage system would not be able to withstand such a large amount of drainage.

That's the downside of living in the city.

When the disaster did not happen, heavy rains would cause flooding.

The heavy rain blurred his figure as he was busy in the community. Some of the large barrels he used for shelter were knocked over by the accumulated water.

The people were struggling in the puddles and screaming in the rain.

Bai Xiao was soaking wet. He went upstairs and sat in front of the window, watching the rain still accumulating outside.

When things develop in the expected bad direction, there is a subtle sense of relief, because the hanging heart finally died.

This is the end of the world.

Lin Duoduo stood behind him with a towel and wiped him.

"If these weren't zombies but human corpses, there would probably be a plague."

Bai Xiao discovered that zombies actually have their benefits.

Looking at the zombies wriggling on the street, he couldn't help but laugh.

People will laugh when they are completely speechless.

The world is purgatory.

He felt a genuine sense of impending doom, which had not been so obvious three years ago when the fellow reveler on the road had spoken of it.

Perhaps this is what makes him different from the natives in the apocalypse.

Bai Xiao also suddenly understood Lin Duoduo's crazy and bold fantasy - she could remain emotionally stable and optimistic in such despair and depression. The truth was that she had gone crazy a long time ago.

He has always been the abnormal one, as he has only lived here for four short years.

Everything is slowly and inexorably decaying.

“I don’t know how long it will take for the water to recede.”

Bai Xiao looked at the figures of his people in the rain.

"A lot of things ran out of the hole." Lin Duoduo saw rats floating on the water. That was only under the residential area. There must be more outside. Some monsters would be forced out.

Water and fire are equivalent in a sense. Burning a mountain can drive away animals, and so can accumulated water.

"Do you want to catch some?" Lin Duoduo asked.

"Wait until the rain stops. They are just small shrimps now."

"Will the little monster drown if left there? If you don't move it somewhere else."

“It should paddle the water.”

"I've never seen water, and you've locked me up since I was born."

“It can learn.”

It was hard to get the food given by God. Compared to going to a dry place, Bai Xiao believed that it was happier now.

The fat mutant rat came out of the water and was eaten by the little monster.

If it were taken away now, it would definitely be angry, as it has never had such a sumptuous meal since it was a child.

The zombie dried his body, unwilling to look at the purgatory-like outside. Instead, Lin Duoduo kept looking outside through the rain, as if she was very interested in this scene. The sound of the rain continued.

There were still quite a few things stored in the kitchen, bamboo shoots piled in the corner, and lotus leaves that were not eaten yesterday placed on the stove. On the cabinet were canned food from more than 20 years ago, juicy amaranth, and a few pieces of meat hanging on the stove, shiny with fat.

Ge Xia was also dragging her injured leg. If she waded in the water downstairs in her current state, her wound might get infected.

Lin Duoduo couldn't go downstairs, at least not until the water cleared.

Two people are standing alone on a high-rise building in the city. Outside, there are oppressive dark clouds and rain that covers the sky. This old building built more than 20 years ago is like a lonely boat, swaying and trembling in the ocean of rain, and may be submerged at any time.

In Ge Xia's eyes, heaven and hell are only separated by a wall.

Standing upstairs, watching the little monsters in the rain chewing on dry bones and eating the monsters forced out of the caves by the stagnant water.

Lin Duoduo made a large cup of sesame paste for the zombies and stirred it with her fingers in warm and slightly hot water. The black, expired paste tasted pretty good to Bai Xiao.

Her hair was a little messy. She yawned and rubbed her forehead, wanting to lean on the zombie for a while. Bai Xiao rubbed her head and took a comb to comb the hair of this human.

When Ge Xia turned around, he saw the huge zombie standing behind Lin Duoduo, combing the human's hair. She was small, with her head slightly raised, standing there in light-colored loose clothes, but in Ge Xia's eyes she seemed extremely tall.

The dark rain outside the window made her look particularly holy and solemn, like an angel left behind under the dim sky.

Ge Xia suddenly had an urge to kneel down.

She limped forward and leaned over to kiss Lin Duoduo's shoes.

Both the zombies and humans were startled. Lin Duoduo climbed onto the zombie's arm and asked, "What are you doing?"

She almost thought that the second child was also infected and turned into a zombie.

No one knew what this scavenger who had been wandering since childhood was thinking. After sending her back to another house and closing the door, Lin Duoduo sat in front of the window and Bai Xiao continued to comb her hair.

"She is not very old. After all, she doesn't have a home left by her elders like you do. She can read and write, so her life is much harder than yours. You have a small house, a water well, and Aunt Qian. You have stumbled through a few years and still have a relatively stable life."

Although I am young, I live in such a world.

Lin Duoduo said: "It's not easy for everyone."

It's even harder now.

"She was trying to find shelter before, too. She came from far away, but the person who took her died. It was a long time ago, when she was very young," she told the zombie.

Bai Xiao said: "This is the best life she could imagine, especially with the mess outside."

This is not common in the apocalypse. Before the apocalypse, they try to live like they did before, one person and one zombie, trying to live like they did before the disaster when there were no zombies.

Lin Duoduo didn't say anything. She didn't know how shocked the little scavenger was when he saw a woman riding a zombie while walking around the city when they first met.

It's still raining.

"Maybe they regard you as the god who guides the survivors." Bai Xiao said.

Lin Duoduo smiled, grabbed the zombie's hand, and clasped her slender fingers through his fingers.

No 'god' would want to have sex with zombies in a shabby house.

"We are just poor people struggling in this world."

The sky was dark and overcast.

The water was still rising, and more bones floated to the surface, along with tangled pieces of clothing, grass roots, and skulls.

She smiled gently. There was a snake swimming in the puddles downstairs, and then it was eaten by the little monster.

When the end of the world comes, everything will be overturned.
