Chapter ss1: Side Story 1
Side Story 1 Xiao Baozi who runs away from home
Mulin looked at the sky, it was already dark. She was about to clean up a place to sleep when Xiao Baozi carefully moved his b.u.t.t, then said with a flattering smile: “G.o.dmother, I’ll help you.”
“Go go, you little bunny, have you learned to run away from home?” Mulin rolled her eyes. She especially wanted to go up to Xiao Baozi by the ear and slap him in the a**.
But even though she was angry she was still reluctant, she could only turn her back and not look at Xiao Baozi to avoid being angry.
Xiao Baozi came over to please her and ma.s.saged her shoulders: “G.o.dmother, G.o.dmother, I know I was wrong, I just want to come out and play. Mama doesn’t let me come out…”
“You think there is fun outside? Your mother lacks everything in this life, except for enemies. If you run out by yourself, do you know how worried she will be! Go back with me now.” Mulin snorted coldly.
Xiao Baozi immediately pouted: “G.o.dmother, I am no longer a kid. I have never come out to play, I want to see the outside world. I don’t want to stay in Jiangcheng all day.”
Mulin thought for a while. This little baby, it’s okay to come out to see the world. It would be bad if he was held back all day, but Xiao Baozi running out by himself made her very angry.
She was not going to bother with Xiao Baozi.
Xiao Baozi tried to please her with bribes and sell his cuteness. In the end, Mulin couldn’t help but say: “I will take you around, but you can’t run around by yourself. You must follow me closely.”
Xiao Baozi nodded repeatedly: “I’m definitely not going to run around!”
“I’ll talk to your mother, then take you out to play. We will play for two days, then we will go home.” Mulin touched Xiao Baozi’s head softly. “Shao Zi, do you think you are very strong and we are just making a big fuss?”
Xiao Baozi shook his head honestly: “I think I am very strong, but I also know what it means when someone says there’s always someone stronger. Mama will worry about me…”
He was a little worried as he said that. “Is Mama angry? I didn’t think much, so I wanted to come out and see…”
Mulin deliberately scared him: “At that time, your mother heard that you came out secretly by yourself and almost fainted. It frightened your three fathers. Then Yan Qiyue checked and found that your mother was pregnant with a baby.”
Xiao Baozi jumped up at the time: “Baby, is it my little sister?”
“I don’t know yet if it’s a boy or a girl.” Mulin snickered: “Otherwise, it wouldn’t be me if I came out to find you. Now your mother, your three dads will soon hole up and won’t come out at all.”
Xiao Baozi said immediately: “Should we go home, I want to see my sister…”
“It’ll be a long time before the baby is born. Why are you in a hurry? I will take you out for a stroll. Take a lap and relax. When you go home, your mother’s belly will be bigger.” Mulin patted his head, then said: “I’m going to set up a tent, you go pick some mushrooms and wild vegetables. Let’s cook some soup.”
Xiao Baozi nodded, and then went to pick mushrooms and wild vegetables.
After a while, Xiao Baozi ran back. Mulin had already set up the tent. The two of them cooked some vegetable soup, ate and went to bed.
They set off early the next morning. Since the last time Jiangcheng was attacked, Shao Qing was particularly angry and set the surrounding area of Jiangcheng into a restricted zone for humans. Except for her friends who were recognized by her and had a pa.s.s given to them, other people, as long as they dare to enter Jiangcheng territory, will be killed without mercy.
Jing Du quickly spread the news, and listed Jiangcheng as a forbidden area, not allowing others to enter.
Jing Du also knew that Shao Qing was really irritated. After all, Shao Qing was fighting for humans, but some people with bad brains attacked Jiangcheng and killed many people.
They believed that Shao Qing would not be joking. If someone dared to enter their territory, there was really no way to get out alive.
Although there were also some who thought they were very powerful and courageous and secretly entered the Jiangcheng territory, in the end only corpses would be thrown out.
No matter whether they were innocent or not, Shao Qing only knew that she was already at the end of the line. With a sign that prohibits entry and the news has been released, those who violate the rules will be treated the same as Jiangcheng’s enemies.
The trespa.s.ser will be beaten to death, they can only admit that they were unlucky. Jiangcheng is her home. Any trespa.s.ser will be leaving their head!
Because no one dared to enter Jiangcheng, Jiangcheng became more and more mysterious. The rumors became more and more exaggerated. However, the rumors were divided into two situations. One was that the people living in Jiangcheng were all zombies, not humans. They were all monsters and were anti-foreigner. So, all who enter Jiangcheng will be killed as outsiders.
Some also said that the people living in Jiangcheng were saviors. However, the person who saved many people was hurt by the person he saved. In a rage, he brought his relatives and friends to build a house that belonged to him. No one was allowed to enter the paradise.
Although there were many rumors, it slowly faded, because the end of the world has now entered the later stage. Many zombies have recovered their memories of being human after they have evolved to a certain level.
Then these zombies were divided into three states. One was to find that they have eaten their relatives and friends, collapse with their awakening memories, then choose to commit suicide and end their lives.
Another would find that they have eaten people and cannot accept it, but they still had relatives and friends alive. So, they will live for their relatives, and in turn protect humans. This type of zombies will restrain the low-rank zombies and prevent them from going to hurt humans.
There was also the most terrible group. After they find that they have eaten people, they do not fear or regret it. Instead, they were ecstatic because of their power. They will even continue to prey on humans and superhumans, wanting to gain more power.
So the current human world was still quite chaotic, because after reaching a certain rank, it was enough to awaken the memory. The appearance of the zombies was no different from that of humans. This caused a lot of panic to humans.
Fortunately, someone later invented a medicine that humans did not have any side effects after taking it, including those with superhuman powers. After taking it, zombies would have a special reaction, and the flesh and skin would begin to rot in an instant.
Everyone who tried to enter the base and return from the outside must take the medicine. After a certain period of observation, then will they be allowed to enter the base.
The invention of this medicine made the bases a relatively safe existence for the time being, even if some zombies wanted to hunt humans, they could only hunt outside the base.
But humans cannot stay inside the base forever. They need food and all kinds of materials. They still have to look outside the base. But now all bases were beginning to try to cultivate various plants, just like Jiangcheng, in their bases. They wanted to set up a planting base.
According to this development, sooner or later, human beings can achieve self-sufficiency and no longer have to worry about starving to death.
However, when they go out to find supplies, the search teams looking for suitable places for planting and breeding bases are often attacked by zombies. High-rank zombies can command low-rank zombies. In other words, they can launch small waves of zombies. Search teams need to confront the tide of zombies, and those high-rank zombies are very strong. They can even wipe out an entire army.
The most frightening thing should be that high-rank zombies like the crystal in the head of the superhumans, but they will hunt ordinary people and feed them to the low-rank zombies under their hands, to let them evolve.
These zombies, who have lost their conscience, thought that they were new species higher than humans and hoped to rule the entire world. They no longer treat humans as their kind, but as their food.
After the human side fell into a brief chaos, they slowly reorganized to resist those zombies, but the effect was not good. Although they could kill low-rank zombies, it was difficult to kill high-rank zombies.
Although the recovery ability of advanced zombies was not as good as that of Shao Qing and Er Dai, it is much stronger than ordinary superhumans. If you want to defeat an advanced zombie, you may only need one advanced superhuman, but if you want to kill a high-rank zombie it would require many high-rank superhumans.
So the high-rank zombies were the source of this disaster. This lasted for a long time, and it has not yet subsided.
Mulin and the others only realized this after they came into contact with people. Mulin sneered, “Your mother had antic.i.p.ated this a long time ago. The inferiority of human beings is very serious. So once she learned about zombies and that they are able to restore their memory, she had expected this day. But the situation was more serious than she had imagined. Those shameless people, insisting the minds of those who are not of their race must be different, refused to accept the kind zombies who were willing to help them. It’s normal for it to be like this.”
Xiao Baozi narrowed his mouth: “What I’m most worried about is that they go to my mother. Isn’t their specialty looking for my mother when they can’t beat them?”
Mulin sneered: “The forbidden land is not called that for nothing. Your mother said that she won’t interfere. She is taking care of her baby, how would she have the time to help them? Let them fight. When they find that they must unite and accept those zombies, they will have the ability to resist. If they don’t repent, they will die.”
Xiao Baozi nodded. He didn’t like those people either. The younger the child, the more he can feel the hidden emotions of human beings. He can sense that those people were scared and guarded against Jiangcheng. They did not have warm feelings towards them.
So why should they be friendly to humans?
“We will be in town soon. We can stop and rest.” Mulin touched Xiao Baozi’s head. As soon as the two of them walked from the concrete road to the dirt road, one person flew over and fell in front of them.
