This is apocalyptic

Chapter 262 Chapter 261: Until the building collapses

It was snowing again, and this time the snow was a little heavy. Lin Duoduo looked at the snow outside and thought carefully, it seemed like it was the fifth year.

so fast.

Twenty-four years old.

She had thought she could accept it all calmly, but when it really happened, she didn't expect that the zombies were still not prepared.

Although they had agreed on it long ago, he became more and more silent and spoke less this winter.

By night, the fire was almost burnt out. Lin Duoduo buried the remaining charcoal in the ashes, filled two bottles with hot water, shared one with Ge Xia, and held them in her arms to keep warm.

When the zombies went out to check, she had to hold a hot water bottle when she slept. It wasn't so cold at night, but the hot water bottle was no match for the zombies and became cold in the middle of the night.

The little monster downstairs was screaming. She opened the window and took a look. A cold wind blew in with snowflakes, and it was suddenly freezing cold. There was no movement outside.

After closing the window, she wondered if the zombies would come back, so she decided not to go to bed early. She lit a candle in the study and read a story with Ge Xia.

The child is illiterate, but can understand some of what is said. Those stories are very novel and fascinating to Ge Xia, who has no entertainment activities. They remind her of her past self, when she would always like to put a few old books on her tricycle and take them back when she saw them in the building while scavenging.

After all, the hordes of zombies outside are far less exciting and mysterious than the stories in the books, which is one of her few entertainment hobbies.

Ge Xia, who is illiterate, cannot even do this, and has no way to access the works left behind by people many years ago before the disaster.

"What is a refrigerator?" Ge Xia asked as he listened.

"You can freeze things and they won't go bad for many years. You can put the leftovers in it," said Lin Duoduo.

Ge Xia said "oh" and scratched his head. Isn't that the same as winter, but there aren't so many things in winter.

The spacious study, neatly arranged bookshelves, and bright candles, where two women sat. Ge Xia felt that it was like this before the disaster, exactly the same, and she now experienced it.

"When you feel very cold, you will feel satisfied and happy when you cover yourself with a blanket. If there is a warm zombie hugging you at this time, wow..."

Lin Duoduo also held the thermos. It wasn't that hot with clothes around it, but it would be too hot without clothes around it.

After hearing this, Ge Xia also exclaimed, "Is it more comfortable than a thermos bottle?"

"Yeah, same as the heater."

"What is a heater?"

"In the past, when there were no zombies, people would turn on the heater to keep warm, otherwise it would be too cold in winter."

Lin Duoduo wrapped herself in her coat. As the night deepened and the zombies showed no signs of returning, she talked to Ge Xia for a while before letting her go back. She blew out the candle and prepared to lie down to rest.

Every night, she could hear the whistling wind. As she lay in bed, she would wonder if the people who lived here before also huddled in their quilts in the winter, listening to the wind outside.

The sturdy zombie was in the ruins outside. He did not travel on this cold night, but was wrapped in the quilt he found in the broken house. The quilt had a rotten smell and was not as soft as the quilt that Lin Duoduo had sewed and dried in the sun.

The survivors in the settlement fell asleep with full stomachs. It was a gift from the mountain god. Some people accepted this statement, but the future was still dark.

No one has an easy time this cold winter.

The end of the world does not erupt with a huge fanfare, but rather fades away into silence as time goes by.

The vast snow is clean and quiet, yet it exudes a sense of deathly silence.

In previous years, winters were particularly long, with endless dark clouds and endless cold winds. People who went out were so cold that their bones were trembling, but if they didn't go out, they would feel bored and empty. However, this year, it was very calm and passed quickly, as fast as a gust of wind, so calm that it made people feel uneasy.

Bai Xiao did not go out so far again, but stayed at home, occasionally going out hunting with Lin Duoduo. Two figures, one big and one small, walked in the snow, making a crackling sound and leaving two rows of footprints.

The rest of the time, they would just stay by the brazier, warm themselves by the fire, and listen to Lin Duoduo telling stories from a book. Occasionally, he would talk about things before the disaster. The details he described were much clearer than those of this barbarian, and they sounded more real. The two humans would look at the zombies and imagine the scenes he described.

When the snow melted, weeds sprouted up.

When the snow turned into rain, the ground was wet. The ground that had been frozen for a whole winter began to be worked on again. The three of them were wearing raincoats and holding tools, working downstairs. When they didn't make any sound, they looked like three perverted killers burying corpses as evidence of their crimes.

The three people lived peacefully in the ruins of the city.

The grass and trees revived as winter passed, but the chirping of insects did not become louder day by day. The sounds were always sporadic, which made the zombies feel bad.

Ge Xia, who had been slow to react, also noticed it. She thought she could catch some insects to eat, but the silence made her feel a little helpless. She looked at the vegetable field with confusion and fear in her eyes.

The zombies became even more silent.

He often looked into the distance without saying a word. Lin Duoduo had very strong desires during this period. Every time she broke out in a sweat, she would hide in the quilt, staring out the window in a daze.

It ends at the age of twenty-four.

“I thought it was still a few years away.”

"As the environment gets worse, this process will accelerate, not at a constant speed, just like a snowball, it gets bigger as it rolls." Bai Xiao said. But this speed also exceeded his expectations.

"Also satisfied, do you want to take a bite of me?"

"You might not become a zombie, but just die directly."

"Then let another old zombie take a bite? Are you sure? There won't be such an opportunity in the future." Lin Duoduo said with a smile. She was originally gambling on whether she would turn into a zombie.

Seriously speaking, even the zombie king has never eaten a human with real weapons. He has only licked them to satisfy his taste.

"I'll take you to that tall building, the tallest one, and you'll live there. I'll seal it all off." Bai Xiao suddenly said, "Until the day the building collapses."

"Then I will really become a princess. When my hair grows so long, I will pull my hair and sneak out."

Lin Duoduo gestured.

"How long can I live hiding in a high-rise building?" she asked.

Bai Xiao didn't say anything. She stood up from the bed, walked barefoot to the window, looked at the little monster downstairs, and said in silence for a while: "This world belongs to you."

It belongs to Monday, to the little monsters, to the zombie king, not to humans.

It will be a whole new world. The zombies that have been rampant for more than 20 years will be like trees without roots and will eventually disappear, but it will be difficult for people to return to their original state.

The city ruins are still dilapidated, but plants are thriving amidst the devastation. That is the original appearance of the world, before it was transformed.

Bai Xiao stood behind her, holding her finger in his mouth, applying gentle force but not wanting to bite it.

"We've already discussed this, haven't we?" Lin Duoduo encouraged, looking into the monster's scarlet eyes.
