Volume 3 Chapter 30 Arriving at the coast
The woman’s eyes lit up at that time. She probably had not given up yet. As soon as Ah Run saw Shao Qing, he was ready to retreat. He wanted to save Ah Jiao, but Ah Jiao did not cooperate.
She looked around to see if Qin Zixi and Shao Qing were together.
After all, when they left, there were not so many people around Shao Qing. This meant that these people only just met Shao Qing after they left.
Looking again, she saw that the baby zombie was not there, while the others were disguised like human beings. Maybe they don’t know Shao Qing’s ident.i.ty.
It must be true, otherwise who would be willing to walk with a group of zombies?
Ah Jiao felt that her opportunity was coming. There were no masters in the group of refugees and they did not dare fight against Shao Qing, but when they looked at Qin Zixi, they could tell they were all superhumans of high rank and they could definitely clean up Shao Qing!
At the thought of this, Ah Jiao’s smile was much more charming, bringing along a slight hint of viciousness. She stepped forward: “Yo, we meet again.”
Shao Qing swept her eyes over coldly. Except for Ah Run and Brother Yao, the remaining refugees couldn’t help but retreat.
“Then? What do you want to tell me?” Shao Qing asked.
The woman’s face was distorted. She pointed to Shao Qing and said to Qin Zixi: “You must not know this, but this woman and the few people behind her are zombies! I saw it with my own eyes!”
Qin Zixi changed at that time. Seeing Ah Jiao’s gaze, she couldn’t hide her murderous intent. He knew and didn’t care about Shao Qing’s ident.i.ty, but that didn’t mean everyone didn’t care.
This woman had just casually exposed Shao Qing’s hidden secret, she definitely was up to no good.
He sneered, then said: “If Qing Jie is a zombie and you saw it, do you think you can live to this day?”
Ah Jiao froze for a moment, those members repeatedly echoed: “That’s right, is this woman out of her mind? Who are you calling a zombie, hah?”
“Do we even know you? Who are you to come rush and point at our big sis…. Cough… people and say that they are zombies?”
“We can tell you are up to no good! If Qing Jie is really a zombie, why would you even be left alive?”
Ah Jiao anxiously argued: “The people behind me have also seen it! If you don’t believe it, you can ask them! It’s because we have so many people, she didn’t dare to kill us. Ah Run, Brother Yao, you speak!”
She turned around, her face looked sinister.
Some of the refugees wanted to speak, but when they saw Xiao Hua turning her head and slowly drawing out a weird smile with sharp fangs shining with cold light as if they could easily tear their flesh, those who wanted to speak immediately shivered. They bowed their heads and dared not speak out.
Ah Run pulled Ah Jiao, embarra.s.sed, he said:”I’m sorry, these days there has been something wrong with her. She probably got frightened by the zombies and has been having hallucinations, calling everyone a zombie.”
Ah Jiao slapped Ah Run away and said angrily: “Why am I following such a useless man! You don’t even dare to say the truth! Brother Yao, you say it!”
“Ah Jiao, stop it!” Brother Yao caught Ah Run. His eyes could not help but freeze for a moment. A wife should be spoiled, but they were not yet married. He couldn’t sacrifice for a woman who was unable to differentiate good from bad and have his brother lose his life.
“When are you going to stop making trouble?”
“I’m making trouble?” Ah Jiao’s chest shuddered, she looked back at the group of refugees: “A group of cowards, wimps!”
“You all know that she is a zombie. The person behind is also a zombie, why not say it? Just because she is strong, afraid of being retaliated? We have so many people!” Ah Jiao encouraged. She looked like some kind of cult.
Shao Qing smiled faintly and then asked Qin Zixi: “What should we eat tonight?” Qin Zixi thought for a while and said, “We will eat whatever you make. As for this woman, you don’t have to do anything. I will help you deal with it.”
Shao Qing said nothing and took Er Dai and them over. When she pa.s.sed Ah Jiao, she even gave her a charming smile which made Ah Jiao angry.
Qin Zixi gave a look to the people around him. Two people immediately stepped forward and dragged Ah Jiao away. Ah Jiao spoke while struggling: “Zombies have no temperature, no blood, do you dare prove it?”
Yan Qiyue bit his finger calmly and gorgeous blood fell on his lush lips, looking very seductive.
Ah Jiao still wanted to argue, but Qin Zixi’s team members had already closed her mouth and dragged her away. She was terrified and desperate. At this moment, she realized that there was no good ending when you go against some people.
For example, Shao Qing.
Both Ah Run and Brother Yao knew that they would kill Ah Jiao. Both eyes were unbearable and helpless, especially Ah Run. He tried to chase them, but was stopped by Brother Yao.
He could not let Ah Run die for such a woman.
Speaking of it, they had already given her all their love. They treat Ah Jiao very well. They would always try to grant whatever was asked, but Ah Jiao was pampered, selfish, and lost her temper easily. That was already fine, however because of her own jealousy she was about to drag everyone to their deaths.
They were better off without this kind of woman.
When Ah Jiao was resolved, Shao Qing silently controlled the dodder and shattered Ah Jiao’s heart. She had to confirm that Ah Jiao had died.
Once the threat is completely crushed then she can rest a.s.sured.
A few people went out to find a lot of edible things and came back. When they came back, they saw the group of refugees sitting in the same place.
They did not dare to go, fearing that Shao Qing was dissatisfied and would kill them all to make food. Shao Qing ignored them. She stewed a big pot of rice and fried a dozen dishes.
The group of people ate together and as they ate, the team members said, “That woman really got crazy, pointing fingers at people. Look at Qing Jie. Who has ever seen zombies that are able to talk, look so beautiful, and cook?”
Shao Qing smiled and said softly: “This kid, still turning around to praise me, your mouth is quite sweet.”
The team member quickly said: “I’m just giving a bribe to Qing Jie. If you see a woman who is half as pretty as you, please remember to introduce her to me.”
“One or two sweet words and you think you can buy me?” Shao Qing said lazily: “Am I so cheap?”
“No way.” The team member said in earnest: “I will give you my captain. That should be enough to show you my intent, so at that time you just need to find me a nice girl.”
Shao Qing lay in Er Dai’s arms and smiled. He was almost overwhelmed. As soon as she stretched her arm, Yan Qiyue reached out and pulled her. Shao Qing pinched Yan Qiyue’s finger, there was a trace of blood on the scarred wound. She stretched out her pink tongue and licked it, then lazily said: “Do you see? These two are mine. You shouldn’t say more, otherwise, these two in my family are going to be jealous.”
Qin Zixi gripped his chopsticks. He didn’t know why, but he suddenly felt sad. He bit his lower lip and smiled: “Qing Jie, when did you get together with brother Yue? Why didn’t you call me to drink the wedding wine.”
“I’m not married yet. After some days, when things calm down, maybe I will have a wedding and marry both of them at home.” Shao Qing said with a smirk.
She hadn’t felt Qin Zixi’s intentions before. After all, Qin Zixi’s age was small, it would be like an old cow wanting to eat tender gra.s.s or something. That’s too much.
She still has a little morality.
It was only when the team member proposed it that she felt something ambiguous and her instinct made her immediately take out the two from her family to put an end to all their thoughts.
She felt that Qin Zixi was probably just fond of her. After all, Qin Zixi was now at the age of developing feelings, it would be easy to have a fascination with her, a more attractive mature woman. That was not love.
Since long-term pain was worse than short-term pain, it was better to stop his thoughts now.
They were more suitable to be sisters and brothers, not lovers.
“I will definitely give my sister a big red envelope by then.” Qin Zixi hooked his lips upwards, but it made people feel that he was not really happy.
Several members who were still laughing just now made a noise.
Especially the one who was joking with Shao Qing before was dumbfounded. He was originally preparing to help his boss. As a result…
Sob, this was different from what he was expecting!
He will definitely be beaten tonight.
“Okay, let’s eat first, I will definitely inform you when the time comes.” Shao Qing was reluctant to talk about this because she knew that Yan Qiyue wanted to marry her, but she kept delaying it because of Er Dai.
This was very unfair to Yan Qiyue. Yan Qiyue didn’t say it, so she was unwilling to mention it more to make Yan Qiyue unhappy.
The group of refugees trembled as they ate their meals, not to mention going to bed. The next day, when Shao Qing lazily got up and washed, she found that the group of refugees were huddled together, sleeping under a tree, with dew on their brows and eyes. It looked pitiful.
As soon as Shao Qing walked over, they sat up cautiously, one by one.
Shao Qing asked Brother Yao because he still looked sensible: “Where are you going to go?”
“We are going to find a bigger base and settle down. We found several, but they refused to accept us, so we are going to Jing Du. ” Brother Yao said honestly.
Those bases have become startled because of the zombies mixed in before and would rather not add new population or dare to accept outsiders.
Shao Qing nodded, with some regrets.
If they were going in the direction of Jiangcheng, she would entrust Xiao Yu to them.
However, it was impossible to think about it. This group of people lacked courage. If she were to send Xiao Yu, it would scare them to death.
Abandoning this tempting idea, Shao Qing went to the gra.s.s area. Xiao Yu hugged the tree trunk and spit bubbles while sleeping. He was really like a little fish.
She fed Xiao Yu something, touched his head, and comforted him. Then she went back with the washing utensils.
Once again parting ways with this group of refugees, they ran faster than anyone else. They probably were scared Shao Qing would change her mind and keep them to kill them and shut their mouths forever.
Shao Qing was really too lazy to make a move on them. Although being a zombie was inconvenient in many ways, it was also beneficial. For example, zombies will not be uncomfortable for a few days every month.
Her period would never come.
In order to perform missions before, Shao Qing had stayed in all sorts of environments. She used to spend a whole day in the gra.s.s filled with cold rain, lurking in the river in winter, and often she would be in the wild drinking cold water. Every time her period came, she would die of pain.
Becoming a zombie, she was able to say goodbye to her period. It was actually a blessing in disguise.
She was used to wanting to feel warm and wanting to be carried away during those few days.
Especially after she has exposed themselves to Qin Zixi, Shao Qing had thrown caution to the wind. After walking two steps, she would let Er Dai piggy back her, allow Yan Qiyue to carry her, while Xiao Baozi bit his fingers on the side. Shouldn’t this be his treatment?
The last one to replace Er Dai and Yan Qiyue was Xiong Da*.
* the big bear Qin Zixi controls
Xiong Da became Shao Qing’s exclusive mount. He carried Shao Qing on his back and Xiao Baozi and Xiao Hua on his head.
Except for meeting the refugees, they did not encounter anything special. They still saw many refugees fleeing around, dragging their family and trying to find a place to stay.
The end of the world had just settled down and was messy again. Shao Qing was a little tired. If she had a choice, she really wanted to nest in Jiangcheng, go nowhere, look after the children, tease her lover, and accompany her friends.
However, why do people live a lifetime?
Others don’t know, but Shao Qing knew. Besides wishing for her family’s well-being, she has only one wish, to live with an indomitable spirit and with a moral conscience.
That will suffice.
Her only conscience prevented her from seeing such terrible scenes and not intervening.
To speak bluntly, if the whole world was ruined and only a few of them were left, what’s the point?
Soon, they reached their destination, the West Coast.
From a distance, you can see many superhumans of teams of about ten people, patrolling along the coast. Once they found a zombie going ash.o.r.e, they would wave to their teams and advance forward.
Just a little further away from the sea were a lot of tents. According to Qin Zixi, these patrol squads were scheduled for specific time slots to ensure that 24 hours a day, every minute and every second, there was someone patrolling.
So those tents were for the night shifts to recuperate.
They had just arrived on the west coast, and had not yet contacted the person in charge when they heard someone shouting: “There are zombies on the sh.o.r.e!”
A row of resting superhumans jumped up and rushed to the place where the sound came from. Besides the patrol, there were some more powerful superhumans, they were like a fire brigade.
Wherever there were zombies is where they would go.
When the fights were more frequent, right when the fighting was done, everyone would lie down and rest as soon as they stopped fighting. They couldn’t even support their weight, their whole body becoming like mud.
In any case, Shao Qing still respected these people. At least they were guarding China.
No matter what kind of intentions they came with, protecting their family members or taking up their own responsibilities, they all deserve respect.
Shao Qing saw that they were all rushing to a place and said: “It’s not urgent to catch up with the person in charge. Let’s go over and check it out first to see what rank the zombies coming here are at?”
Qin Zixi nodded, then said: ” It’s inconvenient for you to take your children, don’t get too close at that time.”
He knew that Shao Qing’s baby must have been a zombie, but even if they knew that Xiao Baozi and Xiao Hua were zombies, their lovely appearance was too much. They couldn’t help but want to protect them.
“I know.” Shao Qing nodded. The group of people followed along. Besides the fighting superhumans, there were some superhumans with healing abilities, forming a rescue team.
Whenever a superhuman was injured, they would be carried to the side for treatment.
But anyone who was lifted down was usually seriously injured. Whenever the injuries reached a certain degree, they were directly carried into the tent in the distance. For slightly lighter injuries, they were treated with a bandage and would go back to the battlefield.
The superhumans in the rescue team were mainly water and wood elementals, the two types that produced healers the most often.
Shao Qing gave them a glance and set her sights on the battle group by the sea.
They surrounded a zombie with golden hair. Its body was very tall and looked very muscular. Half of that dazzling golden hair was lost and his face looked like it appeared from a horror movie.
It should be a rank four, relatively easy to deal with. After judging the rank, the people around them breathed a sigh of relief and ordered the superhumans to come forward in order.
After scouting was completed, a wave of attacks should be able to defeat the zombie.
Shao Qing stood farther away. She looked at the zombie and vaguely felt something was wrong.
