Not long after they started the journey again, Hao Zi saw a group of zombies running over from up ahead .
“Xia Wei… Ancestor, ancestor, did you call for your zombie army?” Hao Zi trembled .
“No . ” Ming Shu looked to Yuan Ye . “Yours?”
There was a weird silence in the car .
Yuan Ye didn’t deny it .
Everyone: “…” Aren’t you a human?!
Yuan Ye got out of the car and walked to the front of those zombies . He raised his hands to make several gestures, and then the zombies ran away .
“My skill is assimilation . ” Yuan Ye got back in the car and explained, facing everyone’s weird gazes . “I can make them treat me like a kindred, and the higher level the skill is, the higher the status will be in the zombies . ”
“Can it be higher than me?” The zombie king felt being challenged .
“…No . ” If it can reach higher status than you, do you think I’ll talk this nonsense here with you? I would have tied you up and strangled you .
“You did that to the southern base, didn’t you?” Ming Shu said again .
Yuan Ye faced several pairs of staring eyes, and he had to grit his teeth and answer, “Yes . ”
Ming Shu smiled . “So why do you think you can accuse me of blowing up the buildings?”
Yuan Ye: “…”
Everyone: “…”
Is this the main point?
Is this the f**king main point?!
These humans and zombies were both not good!
“Yuan Ye, why did you let the zombies destroy the southern base?” Su Tai frowned slightly .
He could understand Ming Shu’s behavior .
She was a zombie .
But Yuan Ye was not; he was human .
Yuan Ye took a look at Ming Shu . “Even if I didn’t let the zombies attack the city, the base would have been destroyed . ”
Ming Shu grunted from the front .
I think you were just trying to kill my snacks coupon .
Su Tai and the others obviously didn’t believe Yuan Ye . Yuan Ye didn’t want to be driven out of the car, so he compromised . “Someone at the southern base was working on a virus to kill zombies .
“Once the virus is released, the zombies may become infected, but humans will also become extinct . ”
“So in other words, you let the zombies attack the base so as to protect humans?” Ming Shu asked with a smile .
Yuan Ye pulled out a cold smile . “I just don’t want to die so early, and their stupidity must be nipped in the bud . ”
“Then you don’t have to destroy the entire base,” Hao Zi said weakly . “There were so many survivors in the southern base . ”
The character profile for Yuan Ye was “born ruthless . ”
So he didn’t worry at all . “That was the simplest and most effective way . ”
Hao Zi: “…”
Are you from the same family as the zombie king?!
Su Tai said, “On that day, it was also you who attacked the convoy on the highway . ”
Yuan Ye didn’t deny it .
He didn’t originally intend to destroy the southern base, but he found that those people also had others besides the man whose surname was Zhong .
According to the assessment given by the system, even if there wasn’t that Zhong man, they would also be likely to make the virus .
So he had to play big .
Yuan Ye somehow became a member of their team .
He even positioned himself as the big brother type in the team .
But when everyone saw Yuan Big Brother Ye was forced to give in to Ming Shu, they would feel quite comforted .
Surely there was always one thing to overcome another .
“No one can escape from natural law,” Hao Zi gloated on the side .
Yuan Ye then grabbed Hao Zi’s rations .
Hao Zi began to howl .
Ye Xiangsi gave hers to Hao Zi .
Hao Zi was just howling and didn’t dare to take Ye Xiangsi’s rations .
At nightfall…
Everyone fell asleep .
Su Tai kept watch at night . He looked into the night and the sky was dark; there were no stars up there, as always .
After a moment, Su Tai walked toward the darkness .
Yuan Ye sat under a tree .
Su Tai sat down with him . “What are you going to do next?”
“I’ll just take one step and look around before taking another . ” Yuan Ye began to dislike Su Tai a little, because he saw that psychopath treated Su Tai so well just now . He could cook, what was the big deal about that!
“At this time a year ago, we were at the contest,” Su Tai said . “Who would have thought that a year later, the world would become like this . ”
“Right,” Yuan Ye answered absentmindedly .
Su Tai didn’t talk more, though . “Sleep early . ”
Yuan Ye suddenly stopped him . “How did you get involved with her?”
As a human being, he wouldn’t have anything to do with a zombie king .
There must be some PY trades in here!
What has she done behind my back!
So angry!
Su Tai was silent for a few seconds and then said slowly, “Xia Wei had a brother, who was bitten by a zombie when he led survivors to retreat at the early stage of Doomsday . I met him in his last moments, and his last wish was for me to help him take care of Xia Wei . ”
It was dark and Su Tai couldn’t see in the dark, so Yuan Ye showed the whites of his eyes fiercely .
Did that psychopath need someone to take care of her?
Their conversation ended and Su Tai went to the other side .
Yuan Ye stood up slowly . Hao Zi had went for a rest in the car behind theirs, and right now there was only Ming Shu in their car .
Yuan Ye pulled open the car door and got in .
Ming Shu was sleeping in the back .
He slowed down his movements and sat beside her .
He pinched his hand hanging to one side and put it aside, then he lowered his head to look at her . He couldn’t actually see it clearly in the dark .
But he could see the glimmer of gold in her slightly open collar .
She really doesn’t like me?
He would be lying if Yuan Ye said he was not disappointed .
He thought… she was willing .
The only consolation was that she at least carried them and didn’t throw them away .
Yuan Ye reached out his hand and touched the edge of the gold coins, but Ming Shu suddenly moved and the coins slid into her clothes .
Ming Shu opened her eyes slightly . “Yuan Ye?”
Yuan Ye took his hand back calmly . “Yes . ”
Ming Shu held her snacks tighter and shrank back a little, entirely hiding the snacks .
Yuan Ye thought she would say something . But she fell asleep again after calling that name .
Yuan Ye estimated his chances of getting the gold coins, but finally gave up . He sat stiff in the car for a long time .
When getting out of the car, Yuan Ye bent over and kissed on Ming Shu’s forehead, like a dragonfly skimming the surface of the water .
Almost as soon as he touched her skin, he moved away and murmured, “Good night . ”
All the survivors of the southern base crowded into An City . But An City was strict about accepting outsiders, and now there were survivors stationed everywhere outside the city .
Some people even built fortifications outside the city in case zombies came, so they were defenseless .
There were also quite a few convoys like Ming Shu’s parking outside .
Hao Zi went to ask around and then came back to report: “Only women and children are allowed to enter An City now, and men are not, unless you have someone of senior status speak for you . ”
Hao Zi was not completely right . Men were allowed to get in, but the number was limited .
People outside sometimes would be beaten badly for making the cut .
“It’s not a good thing to go in . Humans are shallow . ” Ming Shu smiled . “Do you think so?”
Humans Su Tai, Hao Zi, Huang Zheng, Yuan Ye: “…”
They were all humans, thank you!
“What do you know about it?” Hao Zi asked curiously . Before, she said she was going to An City, but they didn’t know why she wanted to come here .
Ming Shu said with a smile, “I’m a zombie, how would I know about you humans’ dirty laundry . ”
F**k . Why can’t you stop calling us “you humans”?
Weren’t you a human before turning into a zombie?!
What’s your superiority of being a zombie!
Yuan Ye dissed Ming Shu fiercely in secret .
