I sell Coke in the doomsday

Hearing this, the corner of my eye twitched and I made a very puzzled sound.

"Add water?"

Does the tractor need water? What is the purpose of adding water? Why does it need to drink more hot water?

The muscles on Sun Zheng's face twisted wildly, and he was pulling at his already sparse hair in a madman.

"No, what do you think the water tank on a tractor is used for? Just for aesthetics?"

I became even more confused, my eyes were dull and I made some vague sounds.

"Water tank?"

Sun Zheng frowned, put his hand on his forehead, sighed deeply, and said weakly.

"Forget it, let's just walk over there."

After saying that, Sun Zheng took the lead and walked forward. I hurriedly followed him. The smell of blood on his body might fade at any time, so I had to stay close to him to ensure his safety.

The journey ahead is a bit hard to describe.

How big can a city be at most? I remember a statistic back then that said the largest city was more than 2,000 square kilometers. Although the truth is not guaranteed, at least the city in front of me is so big that it makes people worry.

Sun Zheng and I walked from the eastern edge of the city all the way to the city center. After walking for a long time, we could still see the building where we started.

However, there was no trace of our destination at all. According to what Sun Zheng told me, we had to walk almost twenty miles.

According to conservative estimates, it would take about three hours of non-stop walking.

Walking on the road, I realized how amazing the scale of the city was back then.

With so many people and so much prosperity, I wonder how surprised the children born in the last decade of the apocalypse would be when they see such a city.

Perhaps to them, this might be more like a so-called miracle.

Sun Zheng walked and stopped, as if he had lost track of the way. I followed beside him, slowly dripping my blood onto his body.

Did I raise a male vampire?

After walking for an hour, Sun Zheng suddenly stopped and stared blankly ahead.

I stopped with him and asked worriedly.

"What's wrong? Can't remember how to get out?"

Sun Zheng did not answer, but just shook his head slightly and pointed forward.

I looked in the direction of Sun Zheng's finger, and where my sight fell were two zombies, one big and one small.

Of the two zombies, the older one had a face full of dust and dirt, but it was still possible to tell that she was a female.

In the hand of the female zombie, there was a boy zombie about ten years old. They looked like a mother and son.

What’s interesting is that there was a very clean area on the boy’s face. It was at this moment that the female zombie stopped, wiped the boy’s face with her palm, and explained this to me.

I looked normal and didn't have any special reaction. This action didn't mean anything. It was just a habit ingrained in the mother's bones. Even if she became a zombie, she couldn't change it.

In my opinion, there is nothing noteworthy about this. Just when I wanted to ask Sun Zheng for clarification, Sun Zheng said with a complicated expression.

"Zombies...are there mothers and children?"

Hearing this, I was stunned for a moment, and then it suddenly dawned on me that the daily life of zombies was a common scene for me, but it was the first time that Sun Zheng saw it.

Yes, this is a view that I enjoy alone. Except for me, when others encounter zombies, it can only trigger a horrific tide of zombies.

Sun Zheng stared at the zombie mother and son for a long time, unable to come back to his senses. I stepped forward, patted Sun Zheng on the shoulder, and laughed softly.

"A zombie is not entirely a corpse."

Sun Zheng came back to his senses after hearing this, shook his head slightly and sighed.

"It's... really amazing."

Chapter 109: Crazy Thoughts (I)

The zombie mother and son walked slowly towards us, then passed by us and gradually went away.

During the whole process, the two zombies didn't even look at us. My blood was quite effective.

I looked at the sun that was about to disappear into the horizon, frowned slightly, patted Sun Zheng's shoulder, and urged him.

"Let's go, it's getting late."

"At night, these zombies will be very active and may be dangerous."

Hearing this, Sun Zheng touched his head and said helplessly.

"I don't remember the way. Let me think about it."

"..."

Damn it, he really forgot the way and stopped. I thought he had never seen zombies before and was too surprised.

Under my murderous gaze, Sun Zheng gave a dry laugh, hurried forward, and said carelessly.

"It's okay. I'll remember it as I walk."

I shook my head helplessly and could only follow Sun Zheng's footsteps. However, Sun Zheng's memory was obviously not very reliable, and he was wandering around in circles in this dilapidated city.

After walking for a long time, the sun completely set below the horizon. Sun Zheng stood in front of the crossroads, looking around, and the excited roars of zombies could be heard all around. I had no choice but to say to Sun Zheng.

"It's getting dark. Let's find a place to avoid these zombies."

Unexpectedly, when Sun Zheng heard this, he pointed to a building two hundred meters away and said with a complicated expression.

"No, that's my home."

I was stunned when I heard that, looked around, looked at the direction we set out, and said in a daze.

"This doesn't look like the exact center of the city."

Sun Zheng paused, shrugged slightly, and said helplessly.

"I remembered it wrongly. My home is not in the center of the city at all."

Before I could complain, Sun Zheng smiled bitterly, lowered his eyebrows and sighed.

"Blame me. I can't remember clearly."

“I always feel like… I live in the center of the city.”

Sun Zheng shook his head and walked quickly forward. I took back my complaints and followed Sun Zheng silently.

I understand Sun Zheng's feelings. When I escaped back to my hometown with untold hardships, I stopped for a long time looking at the dilapidated and unfamiliar streets.

Time, a vague and subtle thing, always makes us beautify our memories unconsciously.

Especially when you know you can never go back.

The night gradually fell, the stars began to light up, the roar of zombies replaced the chirping of insects, and the long night had arrived.

Sun Zheng and I finally arrived at the residential complex where he lived back then. According to him, his family lived on the 18th floor, so the elevator was naturally unusable and he could only climb the stairs.

Sun Zheng's physical strength was running low. When he reached the seventh floor, he was already out of breath. He leaned against the wall and said he wanted to rest.

"No...I can't do that anymore. Let me rest for a while."

Hearing this, I blew away the dust on the ground, then sat down on the ground. I opened my schoolbag, took out a cigarette, and handed it to Sun Zheng.

Sun Zheng didn't care about the dust on the ground, sat down directly, gasped for breath, and took the cigarette tremblingly.

The corridor was frighteningly dark, with almost no light. Even though Sun Zheng and I were very close, I could only see a vague outline.

Pah! The lighter lit up a flame, slightly dispelling some of the darkness. Under the orange-yellow flame, I lit Sun Zheng and my cigarette.

Then the flames went out, and the entire corridor returned to the deadly darkness.

Cigarettes that have been stored for ten years are a little hard to smoke, the tobacco burns very slowly, and the taste is as light as water.

In the darkness, two dim sparks flickered with each breath, and no one spoke.

I could tell that Sun Zheng was feeling a little down, so I stopped talking and gave him some quiet time.

A cigarette burned out, and in the darkness, I vaguely saw a person standing up, and then I heard Sun Zheng say.

"Let's continue."

After saying that, Sun Zheng pressed his palms against the wall and groped his way forward bit by bit. For the rest of the way, he remained silent without saying a word.

After walking and stopping many times, we finally arrived at the 18th floor. Sun Zheng’s home was not difficult to find, after all, there was one household per floor.

Holding a lighter, I came to the door of Sun Zheng's house with me. Just as I was about to kick the door open, Sun Zheng reached out to stop me.

"Don't be so violent, I have the key."

Hearing this, I was a little stunned, and then looked at Sun Zheng in the faint light of the fire, but Sun Zheng just lowered his head and pinched a thin thread from his neck.

Online is his key.

Sun Zheng held the key and began to check the keyhole, while whispering.

"Don't be so surprised. I took this key with me when I escaped."

"I thought, one day... I'll be able to come back."

"Hey, I didn't expect that I would actually come back."

I remained silent and did not say anything. For Sun Zheng, this seemed too long, a full ten years.

Click! With a crisp sound, the door was opened by Sun Zheng, and he strode into the room, muttering something in a low voice.

“Fortunately, we didn’t switch to a fully electronic lock.”

I followed Sun Zheng into the room. As soon as I entered the room, a cold wind blew towards my face. I looked up.

However, I saw that the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room had been shattered and was in tatters, with broken glass all over the floor.

The whole room was filled with a rotten smell, which made people cover their noses.

However, Sun Zheng seemed not to be able to smell the strange smell. He opened his hands, took a deep breath, then closed his eyes and spoke softly.

"I am back."

The person has returned, but everything has changed. This is no longer Sun Zheng's home.

I can understand Sun Zheng’s feelings, but I know what will happen next.

Like Sun Zheng, I once stood in a dilapidated, cold home, feeling grateful that I had finally returned.

But it didn't take long before I realized that it was no longer my home.

No one was there, and it was just an empty house, no longer a home.

I didn't disturb Sun Zheng who was standing there. I quickly scanned the living room. The house was not too big. The kitchen was on the side of the living room, and I could see the refrigerator inside at a glance.

Except for the broken glass, everything else in the room was well preserved with no obvious signs of damage.

Seeing this, I almost fell into my old habit of picking up trash, but after all, the owner of the house was here, so I suppressed the desire to plunder.

After standing there in a daze for ten minutes, Sun Zheng finally came to his senses. A smile appeared on his face, and he turned around and greeted me.

"Come on, you are the guest today, I have to treat you well."

As he said that, Sun Zheng stepped forward, dusted the sofa, and asked me to sit down. I glanced at the cold wind coming in through the window, hesitated for a moment, but finally did not refuse. I walked to the sofa and slowly sat down.

The rotten smell that permeated the room was obviously coming from the sofa. Now the rotten smell lingered at my nose and could not be shaken off. Sun Zheng still looked stupid, leaning on the sofa, smiling foolishly.

I looked at him with a complicated and incomprehensible look in my eyes, with no intention of pointing out the truth to him.

In such a world, staying awake is an extremely torturous thing. It is time to let Sun Zheng be a fool for a short time.

Chapter 110: Crazy Thoughts (Part 2)

Just like that, Sun Zheng and I sat on the sofa and rested for a while. During this time, the smile on Sun Zheng's face gradually faded, but his eyes were still cloudy and lifeless, and he did not look sober.

Sure enough, Sun Zheng suddenly stood up and asked me as usual.

"Would you like something to drink?"

I was stunned when I heard that, and didn't answer anything. There couldn't be clean water in this room, nor anything drinkable. He really wasn't sober enough to ask such a question. I pondered for a moment, but couldn't think of any solution, so I gave a desperate answer.

"Whatever, as long as I can drink it."

After hearing my answer, Sun Zheng turned and walked towards the refrigerator in the kitchen. Without electricity, the room was dark, and only the moonlight outside could illuminate the entire room.
