Chapter 4 Like a Sapling
She originally wanted to punish the scumbag, but now she has no chance.

After resting for a while, Qiao Zhi heard his stomach rumbling.

She got up reluctantly and prepared to get herself something to eat.

I opened the refrigerator and saw very little food inside.

Qiao Zhi doesn't cook much, so naturally he doesn't buy too many ingredients.

While there is still electricity and water, she wants to finish eating the food in the refrigerator first to prevent it from going bad during a power outage.

She was cooking while watching videos. The situation outside was very serious. There were zombies everywhere on the road. Many people found places to hide, but many people also sent out distress messages saying that they were trapped.

But at this time, everyone is busy taking care of themselves, so how can they have the ability to help others?

Suddenly, her finger stopped at the official channel, which was broadcasting live and the person speaking was their mayor.

"Please rest assured, our country will not abandon anyone. The zombies are currently moving slowly. As long as you find a place to hide as soon as possible, you will be safe for the time being. Everyone, rest assured and wait for rescue."

"Also, zombies are highly contagious. Anyone bitten or scratched can turn into a zombie. So if there's someone around you who's been bitten or scratched, tie them up and lock them up in a separate area to prevent them from harming others after they transform."

"Finally, please trust the country. The country will not abandon any of its citizens, and we will provide rescue as soon as possible."

The last sentence not only gave Qiao Zhi more confidence, but also gave confidence to the confused Chinese people.

Yes, they still have a country.

China has stood in the world for thousands of years and has experienced countless disasters. How could they be defeated by a small doomsday?

The official statement restored people's confidence, and everyone quickly sought shelter and waited for rescue.

The comments online are not so negative anymore, and everything seems to be getting better.

The meal was ready. Qiao Zhi put down his phone and started eating impatiently.

Her cooking skills are average, but fortunately, semi-finished foods don’t require much skill. They just need to be baked in the microwave to be delicious.

After eating and drinking, she began to organize the supplies piled in the living room.

The house she rented was a one-bedroom apartment, but it also came with a very small storage room.

Qiao Zhi placed all the purchased supplies in the storage room, then closed the door and scanned the living room to make sure nothing was missed.

It was already dark outside and it was raining. Qiao Zhi checked the doors and windows and made sure they were all closed before returning to the bedroom.

The network was still operating normally. She opened the community chat group and found that everyone was discussing things related to the end of the world.

Building 1, Room 303: [There are too many zombies in our neighborhood. I don't even dare to go out to buy supplies.]

Building 9, 2002: [It's too late to buy supplies now; the supermarkets are all closed.]

Building 1, Room 903: [A zombie appeared right when I came back and almost bit me.]

[Speaking of which, I also saw a young girl kick a zombie away with one kick. She was very strong.]

Building 3, Room 202: [I saw that too. It's so cool. It's just that the zombies are useless. You have to blow their heads off to kill them.]

Room 4, Building 502: [You all just watched the live broadcast, right? I don't know when the authorities will come to rescue us. My supplies won't last much longer╥﹏╥]

Building 7, Room 1101: [Help! I heard some noise in the corridor outside. It sounds like there are zombies outside my house.]

Building 1, Room 301: [Don't be afraid, try not to make any noise. As long as your door is strong enough, the zombies won't be able to get in.]

Building 7, 1101: [Hmm]

Building 8, Room 501: [Someone come save me! My wife has turned into a zombie and I've locked her in the bedroom. There seem to be zombies outside my house too. I really don't know what to do now.] Building 2, Room 804: [Hell has begun, brother! Who dares to save you?]

If it happened outside the house, it would be fine, but this happened right at home. If the zombies in the house were not dealt with, if the other party came out of the bedroom while I was sleeping, I would be killed immediately.

Messages kept popping up in the community group, many of which were requests for help, either saying that their family members had turned into zombies or that there were zombies outside the door.

Qiao Zhi discovered that there were very few people speaking in the community group, only about one-tenth of the usual number.

The community where she rented has a very high occupancy rate because of its good location, and almost every building is full.

There are so few people sending messages now, could they all have turned into zombies?

If that's the case, it would be a disaster.

There were constant messages in the community group, and several enthusiastic people were teaching the man whose wife turned into a zombie how to escape danger.

Building 2, Room 201: [The best way now is to kill the zombies.]

Building 8, Room 501: [That's my wife, I can't do it.]

And he wasn't sure if he could kill the zombies. If he couldn't, he would be doomed.

Seeing his cowardly remarks, everyone in Building 2, Room 201 was almost pissed off. He shouldn't have said anything more.

"Then do whatever you want. The neighborhood is full of zombies, and there are zombies outside your door. If you don't find a way out yourself, we can't save you."

No one would risk his or her life to save a stranger.

Building 3, Room 202: [According to the apocalyptic novels I've read, zombies may have the ability to upgrade. If you don't deal with them now, you won't have another chance later.]

Room 3, Building 202 is a novel fan. After waking up early this morning and seeing the changes outside, he immediately went to the supermarket to buy a lot of supplies.

Room 8, Building 501, was feeling nervous. He was afraid that he couldn't kill the zombies, and he was also afraid that the zombies would break out and eat him.

The sound of rain outside gradually grew louder, attracting her attention. Qiao Zhi put down her phone and stopped looking at the messages in the group.

The rain now is no less severe than that in the early morning, hitting the windows and making crackling sounds.

Qiao Zhi felt more and more sleepy and slowly closed his eyes.

She had a dream. In the dream, she was like a small sapling, growing slowly under the water of rain, and eventually turned into a towering tree.

She stretched out her branches under the scorching sun and grew vigorously in the rain. As the dream deepened, Qiao Zhi's body in reality was also changing.

Her hair gradually grew longer, covering the entire bed, and green lines appeared on her skin, but they soon disappeared.

Her already well-proportioned figure has become even more standard, and her skin is whiter and smoother than before.

The next morning, Qiao Zhi woke up from his dream.

As she sat up, she was startled by the hair on the bed.

How come her hair has become so long?

Could it be that yesterday's dream was reflected in reality, so her hair grew so long.

Or has she awakened some special ability?
But apart from her hair growing longer, she didn't feel anything unusual about her body.

No, there are still some.

Glancing at her increasingly white and tender arms, she confirmed that some changes had occurred in her body again last night.
