This is apocalyptic

Chapter 245 244: Believe

Bai Xiao was depressed for a while, but then he let it go. In fact, he was more or less prepared in his heart. If the fresh zombies regained consciousness after eating some blood, he would have to doubt whether he was Tang Monk.

The wind was blowing very comfortably. Lin Duoduo looked into the distance with a telescope, quietly. The scavengers were like them, like mice. They were usually invisible and no one knew when they would pop up or turn into zombies wandering somewhere.

Such is life among ruins.

Bai Xiao has not given up yet. He is trying to see if the fresh zombies will grow stronger if they have enough food. However, Monday is very picky about food. It is a pure zombie. The bloody smell of the fish will attract it, but it will become very irritable when faced with infected flesh and blood.

Seeing Ge Xia carrying the warm water that had been used to wash the wound and preparing to pour it, he took it over and mixed it with the blood and flesh. Monday became a little interested, but even more irritable.

"Should I pee on it?" Ge Xia said timidly.

Bai Xiao was stunned for a moment and looked at Lin Duoduo. What kind of weird stuff did this woman teach him?

In the end, the Zombie King didn't do anything so bad.

He went outside for another walk and did not find a second fresh zombie. This was expected. There were so few people nowadays, so how could there be any fresh zombies?

There are only more scavengers in the spring, probably because they have just survived the winter. He guessed that the next time there will be more scavengers would be in the autumn. Lin Duoduo used to do the same. She would go scavenging once in the spring before the grass and trees are lush, and go again before winter. These two trips are basically necessary every year. As for other times, she would go only when there is a need, and the time is irregular.

They drank two glasses of red wine in the evening. Ge Xia obviously had never drunk red wine before and was not used to the taste, but he was reluctant to waste it as he knew it was a good thing. After two glasses, he felt a little dizzy and went to rest.

Bai Xiao and Lin Duoduo would often stay at the stove for a while. Sometimes she needed to wash up, and sometimes she would make sesame paste and coffee for the zombie and leave it for him to drink in the evening.

Bai Xiao stared at Lin Duoduo as she stirred the expired sesame paste with her fingers.

She was wearing very cool clothes. As the weather was getting hotter, she would wrap herself up tightly only when she left the building. Inside the house, she would take off her coat and be left with only a small vest.

The sweat on the tip of her nose was attracting the zombies, and Monday outside was probably also attracted by the sweat under her tightly wrapped clothes. The human smell was stronger at this time.

Lin Duoduo mixed the porridge. Zombies can't be full just by eating. They get hungry quickly and need to replenish from time to time. Seeing the zombies' eyes, she couldn't help asking, "What are you looking at?"

"The light was bad that day, so I wanted to check it again."

"How can I get married in the future?" Lin Duoduo rejected the unreasonable demands of the zombies. It was so embarrassing to be checked every day.

"What's the future? No one will marry you. They will all be dead in two years."

"It makes sense."

Lin Duoduo fanned herself with a fan. She was very cool in just a small vest. She sat next to the pool table, one hand on the table, looking at the zombies. She wiped the sweat off her forehead with her hand and said, "Just give it a try. It's very tiring."

Ever since the zombies discovered the function of her teapot, she felt extremely tired every time.

"Have you noticed that now you really look like the evil villain in the story?"

Lin Duoduo frowned slightly. "The evil zombie king bullies men and women. He would pull off the necklaces of zombies he saw wandering on the street. He also kidnapped a human and locked her up in the house to play with her every day. He has countless minions surrounding her outside."

Bai Xiao indeed had this feeling. No matter how hard he tried, he seemed to be moving towards becoming an evil boss.

Now he has a new general under his command: a fresh zombie.

"You also have a hungry dog ​​guarding the door, a monster that never gets full all day."

"Now that I think about it, I seem to be really bad."

Bai Xiao fell into deep thought.

If a brave man really came to defeat him, and saw humans being sprayed with water under the manipulation of the zombie king, would his moral heart collapse?

From this perspective, this human is not the protagonist. He is probably just the tragic background of the story, used to highlight the brutality of the zombie king.

"What about the second one?"

"Because he was too thin, he was disliked by the zombie king and could only serve tea and water."

"..."

Bai Xiao laughed. It seemed to be the case, but the reality was completely the opposite.

If someone really shot you, this would probably be the normal version that would be left behind.

On the contrary, it is the Zombie King who saves his people from danger.

The sound of iron chains rattling downstairs was accompanied by Monday's roar. Fresh zombies were more energetic than old ones. The little monsters also screamed at the noise.

Like a chain reaction, the zombies on the streets also began to become restless at night.

"Finally, there is some movement."

Lin Duoduo did not feel unaccustomed to it. Instead, she felt a little more at ease because of the restless noise.

This is what the city should look like.

She stretched, stopped talking to the zombies, let the water cool down, and went downstairs in the dark to rest.

The building was not peaceful either. The zombies trapped in the building were also restless. She lay on the bed and listened for a while. She heard the iron door downstairs open and the zombie king went out.

After a long time, two hours, Bai Xiao came back and said, "Do you think Monday is the zombie king?"

"Ok?"

"Look at the noise it makes."

The vitality of the new zombies made it unable to calm down at all. This was different from Bai Xiao at the beginning. Lin Duoduo remembered that he was very quiet back then, sitting cross-legged under the shed, eating when he was asked to eat and drinking water when he was asked to drink. He did not move around at night, just like a stupid zombie.

"What did you do when you went out?" Lin Duoduo asked.

"I went to see if it was something, but it turns out that Monday is really quiet."

I always have to go out and check on the restlessness of the old zombies, and I keep them here for warning.

“All fresh zombies are like this.”

Lin Duoduo turned over and said, "In the past few years, when the zombies were not so old, they went to the city to scavenge for scraps. That's how it was. It's only in recent years that they have become quiet."

"is it?"

"I noticed that you have no memory of what happened in the past few years." Lin Duoduo suddenly said.

This was strange, just as strange as his familiarity with things from before the disaster.

Bai Xiao said: "Didn't I tell you at the beginning? I feel like I used to live in a place without zombies."

Lin Duoduo asked: "Is there really such a place?"

Bai Xiao said: "There was in the past."

Lin Duoduo was silent for a moment before she said, "So you've always wanted me to go to the shelter."

"Well... about the same." Bai Xiao said, "People always yearn for places with higher productivity."

"Why didn't you do that later? How did Aunt Qian convince you?"

"She didn't convince me."

Bai Xiao said, "After returning from the road, I thought about a question."

"what is the problem?"

“While we are on earth, should we live in the present, or sacrifice ourselves to create a better future for future generations?”

"Right now?"

"I believe in the wisdom of future generations. Besides, since I can't even survive, there's no point in worrying about future generations."

"It was Aunt Qian who influenced you." Lin Duoduo said. Aunt Qian once had an unborn child, so of course she knew about it.

"Perhaps, it's better to say that the ruins influenced me."

Not only Aunt Qian, but also Yu Ming, Zhang Tan, and many people on the road.

They may be just a minority.

But the scope of the ruins is very large. Except for the safe zone, there are ruins everywhere.
