War Lord

Chapter 29: Couple

Like a huge fireball, when the sun dropped to the horizon, a modified green car drove into Silvertree City.

Ji An is like sitting on pins and needles, his sight always inevitably floats to the soldier sitting opposite him. This guy who lifted himself up with one hand, Ji An would never forget his vision when he looked at him. There was no anger, no contempt, no violence, and no mercy in that sight. Yes, it's just as calm as autumn water.

Being calm and chilling to the black man, it means that Ji An is in the heart of the owner of these eyes, and is no different from the corpse on the side of the road. At that time, as long as the thumb that clasped his throat and the index finger gently pressed together, Ji An believed that it could definitely crush his Adam's apple easily. Even breaking his neck.

But it was such a terrifying person. After letting him and the young female companion get in the car, the soldier handed over 20 yuan to Teddy's hand as promised before, even if Teddy didn't dare to accept it.

In turbulent times, there is no law. There is even more disorder in the wilderness. Whoever has the big fist is the law. Zero's display of force can completely drive them out of the car or even kill them, and then rob the car and drive away. But he didn't. He just pulled his female companion into the car silently, and then sat quietly by the window.

Even so, no one wants to be close to zero. Sitting next to him is no easier than sitting next to a corpse wolf.

When the car drove into Silver Tree City, Ling raised his head and looked out the window. Silvertree City is not much different from two years ago. The cracks in the streets in the city, the street lights or a certain stop sign are stained with blood that does not know whether it is a human or a beast, and it turns into brown spots because of the fading. . The vegetation in the city has disappeared, and the grass in front of the houses is now showing dry sand. And in those dark windows, Zero felt the seemingly dangerous danger.

It's just that the feeling of danger is much weaker than it was two years ago. It can be seen that the monsters or abnormal creatures in the city have been greatly reduced.

This reminded Ling of the group of migrating corpse wolves, the monsters in Silvertree City, I am afraid that more of them have left this abandoned city. But even so, the big thorn plunged into the city, and Zero didn't think it was a good idea. Even if this car is modified, the machine gun on the roof of the carriage can easily tear apart monsters that dare to provoke, and the windows reinforced with iron bars can be responsible for the attacks of flexible creatures like living corpses.

The car finally stopped in front of a roadside gas station. Ji An and several other men got out of the car with shotguns and pistols, while the driver Teddy went to check several gas tanks. Zero left Leah in the car, but he got out of the car himself.

Even though it was evening, the temperature on the ground was still terribly high, as can be seen from the heat rising from the soles of the feet. Several men in Ji An subconsciously drew a little distance from Zero, but on the contrary, Teddy, this young man, didn't have much fear of Zero. The young driver took off his peaked cap, shook his head and said, "Damn, there is no petrol in the tank."

"Nonsense, this city has been deserted for so long, it is surprising to have gasoline. But..." Ji An looked at the convenience store at the gas station: "There should be some things that can be used, such as food or potion."

He waved to the convenience store, and the men were about to follow. Zero blocked them: "I'll go, you protect the car and the woman."

Taking a step forward, Zero turned around again, and his eyes swept across the crowd like autumn water: "If I find you do something strange, believe me, I will make you regret it."

After speaking, Zero was in the darkness of the convenience store in Leah's sight.

In the jungle, a violent bear or no pack of wolves is stronger. In this era of poor resources, it is much easier for teams to survive than individuals. There is still a long way to go to Remte, and he will have to spend some time with people like Teddy during this journey. Deterrence by force alone can only last for a short time, and it is extremely unreliable. So Zero wants to make them peers, so the only way is to win their trust and make some contributions.

This is the only way to integrate into the team. Only by participating in it will everyone recognize you.

Naturally, or just one person, he doesn't have to be so troublesome. But he still took Leah, and for the sake of the girl's safety, Zero could only do something that seemed redundant to him.

The convenience store is dark and quiet at the same time. Zero draws out the revolver, holding a pocket flashlight in the other hand to act as lighting. He touched the door, and the shop was in a mess. Zero picked some food and medicine in the cabinets that were still intact, and it was not within his scope of consideration as to whether the things had expired or not. As long as he takes things back, someone will naturally distinguish and choose.

There was no danger in the convenience store as imagined, but when Zero was ready to flash people, a slightly inaudible sound came into his ears.

The sound came from the lounge behind the convenience store.

Zero walked over, and he opened the door gently with the muzzle of his gun.

Behind the door is a small room, the afterglow of the setting sun falls on the edge of the window, and the room is shrouded in a dark yellow light.

What catches the eye is a photo frame. The photo in the frame is not big~lightnovelpub.net~. The photos in it have faded, but it is not difficult to see that an elderly couple is lovingly leaning together in the photo. This is simple and simple happiness.

Under the frame is a single bed with the body of an old woman lying on the bed. The body's water was exhausted, leaving only a skin. The limbs, wrists and ankles of the corpse were tightly tied with cowhide rope. From the messy traces on the bed, it can be seen that the old woman had struggled violently before her death.

And beside the bed, there is an old living corpse. The living corpse's hair was completely stripped, and it was judged from the appearance that it was the old man in the photo. The living corpse was lying on the ground and unable to move, because the part below the thigh had disappeared. Even if he perceives the arrival of zero, the old living corpse has no desire to attack. He just mechanically digs out the only rotten flesh of the thigh roots with his hands, and then sends it into his own mouth to chew.

Zero was surprised. Two years ago, Mary, who became a living corpse, remembered her former lover and had surprised Zero. Two years later, a living corpse devouring his own flesh and blood touched a soft place in Ling's heart again.

Judging from the complete body of the female corpse on the bed, Ling knew that this old living corpse would rather eat his own flesh than hurt his wife's hair.

Remember the vows in front of the holy hall. No matter rich or poor, regardless of birth, old age, sickness or death, I will guard by your side and never leave!

Ling secretly sighed, put down the pistol, and took out the dagger. He walked up, the dagger flicked a pale yellow rainbow over the setting sun, brushed the throat of the old living corpse, and removed his entire head.

Holding this head, Ling placed it quietly next to the female corpse, and then gently pulled up the quilt under the bed to help them cover it.

In this way, you can sleep forever. Like the countless nights many years ago, hug and sleep until the end of time!

After doing all this, he quietly exited the room and the convenience store.
