Chapter 168: Heartbeat (The Third Crazy Diamond Quest)
After hearing Wu Yue's voice calling for help, Jiang Shuai was the first to turn around and run back, but as soon as he returned to the alley, he saw Wu Yue running towards him. Behind her, the corpses were about to surround Gu Yan, and she was struggling to swing the iron rod in her hand, constantly struggling.
He didn't even think about it and was about to rush over to save her, but Wu Yue directly reached out to stop him.
"Yueyue, what are you doing?"
"You're crazy, Jiang Shuai! She's surrounded by corpses, are you going to die! Hurry up! Let's run quickly!"
Without waiting for Jiang Shuai's reaction, Wu Yue pulled him out of the alley.
The zombies on the streets are also becoming more and more numerous at this time.
Seeing that the two of them were about to jump onto the cargo box, Gu Yan's figure did not appear for a long time. An uneasiness suddenly came to his heart, and Chen Yuan shouted at Jiang Shuai: "Gu Yan! Why isn't she with you!"
Jiang Shuai looked at Chen Yuan and hesitated, "She ......"
Wu Yue shouted for him, "She's surrounded by corpses!
This sentence was like a thunderbolt bursting in Chen Yuan's mind, and he rushed out of the car with an iron rod without any thought and rushed towards the mouth of the alley.
Mi Le and Luo Xiu were both shouting Chen Yuan's name.
"Brother Yuan! Brother Yuan, you're back!"
"Chen Yuan, calm down!"
Although the two of them shouted loudly, Chen Yuan still disappeared into the alley in an instant. Seeing more and more zombies on the street coming towards the truck.
Both Luo Xiu and Miller became anxious.
There were already a lot of zombies rushing towards the container, Jiang Shuai and the others had no choice but to wield an iron rod to force them back, but the number is increasing, and if it continues like this, those zombies will rush into the container sooner or later. Jiang Shuai picked up the walkie-talkie in a panic and shouted to Luo Xiu: "Captain, another wave of corpses is coming! We can't wait any longer! Otherwise, we will all die here!" he said as he locked the door of the cargo box with his teammates beside him, waiting for Luo Xiu's decision.
Luo Xiu was already sitting in the driver's seat, and he was as anxious as Mi Le stared at the mouth of the alley through the reversing mirror, expecting Chen Yuan to rush out with Gu Yan at this time.
However, time passed second by second, and the body was surrounded by corpses, but Chen Yuan and the two of them still did not appear. He knew very well that Chen Yuan and the others should not be able to come back. From the moment Chen Yuanchong got out of the car, he had such a feeling. But he didn't want to give up, he didn't want to give up on the man who had just led them out of the predicament.
If it was only him in the car, he would have stayed here and waited for him anyway, but he still had so many team members on his shoulders who followed him from birth to death. If they continue like this, they will really be wiped out. He can't let them die here too.
He roared, slammed the steering wheel, and then stepped on the accelerator. The power of the pickup truck erupted, and they quickly shook off the corpses and rushed out of the corner of the street. Mi Le turned his head and looked blankly at the mouth of the alley blocked by zombies, and finally burst into tears uncontrollably, "Brother Yuan......"
When something like this happened, they couldn't continue searching for supplies. With a heavy heart, after driving for more than two hours, the pickup truck stopped in front of the main entrance of Building One.
Shen Jingyuan and Tong Xia were still standing at the door, waiting for Chen Yuan and them to return safely. Seeing that only one car had returned, they couldn't help but feel a little strange. Under their puzzled gazes, Miller cried and jumped off the co-pilot's seat in a trance.
"Miller, what's wrong with you?"
Shen Jingyuan asked as she craned her neck and looked behind him, but then saw Luo Xiu, Zhu Bingheng and others walking down from the small truck. The feeling of uneasiness suddenly increased, and she looked at Mi Le and asked again, "What about Chen Yuan and Gu Yan?"
Tong Xia also realized the strange atmosphere at the moment, she pulled Shen Jingyuan and ran to Mi Le, and asked anxiously, "You are talking, what about the two of them?"
Miller glanced at them, then lowered his head and shook weakly.
An indescribable feeling of suffocation came to her heart in an instant, Shen Jingyuan gasped and grabbed Mi Le's shoulder hard, and shook it, "What do you mean by this? What happened to Chen Yuan and Gu Yan? You say!"
The autumn wind ruffled Shen Jingyuan's hair, and she stared at Mi Le with wide eyes.
After being silent for a long time, Mi Le finally sighed, "We encountered an accident, Brother Yuan and Gu Yan may not be able to come back......"
"What do you say......"
When this sentence really came out of Mi Le's mouth, Shen Jingyuan only felt as if something had penetrated her heart all at once, and the pain was suffocating.
Tong Xia was also stunned on the spot, she looked at Mi Le in disbelief, "What did you just say?"
Mi Le's emotions were also extremely lost, he pushed away Shen Jingyuan and Tong Xia's hands, his tone was full of despair, "I don't believe that such a thing will happen, but the reality is like this, Brother Yuan was trapped in the corpse group in order to save Gu Yan, they can't come back!
It seemed that he had also been hit hard, and he roared twice and rushed headlong into Building One.
Shen Jingyuan blinked her eyes sluggishly, and her tears had already burst the embankment. In the blurred vision, the pickup truck stopped motionless, but the man he loved so much would never jump off the car again.
Luo Xiu passed by the two of them, and Tong Xia grabbed his arm without giving up, "Captain Luo......"
Luo Xiu stopped, glanced at Tong Xia with a lonely expression, and waited for her next sentence.
"Chen Yuan, they must still be alive...... Isn't that right?"
Tong Xia's eyes were full of tears, she bit her lip and looked at Luo Xiu tremblingly.
Luo Xiu was silent for a long time, and finally shook his head, he took Tong Xia's hand away, "Don't be too sad. With a heavy sigh, Luo Xiu also walked into the hall on the first floor.
Shen Jingyuan was already slumped on the ground, and Tong Xia squatted down and hugged her tightly.
"I don't believe it, I don't believe they will die, he promised me that we will be together forever......"
"Yuanyuan ......"
"I'm not sad, I know he's going to come back. ”
"Well, then we'll wait for them here, and I'm sure they'll be back!"
The time goes back to three hours ago.
When Gu Yan fell towards the group of corpses behind her, at that moment, she felt that the whole world had become very peaceful. The woman who had killed her was already running towards the mouth of the alley. But now she was in a state of confusion.
What do you live for?
Since the zombie appeared and her body was ruined by Wang Meng, she has given up the idea of living. She just wanted to kill the disgusting and filthy man with her own hands and then end her own life.
But why did you choose to survive?
That delicate face gradually came to mind.
Is it because of him?
If it weren't for him, maybe he wouldn't have had the opportunity to kill Wang Meng with his own hands.
It's just after killing Wang Meng......
Complex emotions are constantly intertwined with each other.
Memories of the past also come flooding out uncontrollably.
"I don't need you to do anything for me. You just have to adjust yourself and try to make yourself happy if you can. Because, the days to come may be even more difficult. ”
Chen Yuan's words, she has always engraved in her heart.
Every time I talk to him, I feel at peace and comfortable.
He would listen quietly to himself singing, and he would also listen to himself play the piano quietly. He also gave himself a music box to teach himself to exercise, as if as long as it was related to him, the feeling of being alive would become very real.
So......
I don't want to die, I want to be by his side......
When he finally fell to the ground, a cold, real pain came from his back. The corpses behind her head roared and approached her, and the zombies in the alley on the other side also rushed out, and the zombies that had just been kicked down were trying to pounce on her with their teeth and claws.
She opened her eyes wide, clenched the iron rod in her right hand, and smashed it into the head of the zombie on the left. As blood splattered, she quickly stood up and pulled out the dagger in her left hand. Struggled into the head of another zombie. The hordes of corpses lunged at her, dodging backwards as she swung the iron rod in her hand to force back the zombie closest to her.
Then he turned around and stabbed another zombie in the head.
The sound of her heartbeat became clearer and clearer, and she gasped violently.
Seeing that there were more and more zombies left and right, she didn't want to give up at all. The desire to survive swelled in her mind, and she kicked away the zombies next to her, then knocked over another with a stick. The sound of wind and roars filled her eardrums, blood everywhere, and everything was in chaos in an instant.
Chen Yuan rushed in from outside the alley, and countless zombies were piled up in front of him. He couldn't tell why he didn't hesitate to come to her rescue at this moment. Maybe just like when he saved Tong Xia in the parking lot, he didn't want this extremely poor girl to die here like this. She's been devastated by life so badly, she shouldn't have ended up like this. So, be sure to save her no matter what!
Chen Yuan held the iron rod in his hand and swung it vigorously, and all the zombies in front of him were violently knocked away by him. Finally, he saw the girl who was fighting alone in the crowd of corpses.
"Gu Yan, hold on! I'm coming!"
He shouted, increasing the speed of his feet.
Suddenly hearing Chen Yuan's shout, this made Gu Yan, who was already red-eyed, even more courageous. While scattering the zombies beside her, she rushed towards Chen Yuan.
In three seconds, Chen Yuan rushed away from the zombie and stood with Gu Yan.
The two men looked at each other silently, and no one spoke.
They listened to each other's heartbeats as if they were together.
Then, he laughed slowly.
