Chapter Seventy-Four: Seeing Off (Part 1)
At three o'clock in the morning, Chen Yuan woke up from the darkness.
The soft touch on his head made him feel comfortable, and his consciousness gradually became clear.
He blinked, and in the dim vision, a little light from the candle flame reflected on Shen Jingyuan's sleepy face.
Realizing that he was lying on her lap, he quickly controlled his movements and quietly got up.
However, it was still discovered by Shen Jingyuan.
"Ah, are you awake?"
Shen Jingyuan rubbed her eyes in a daze, although she was very happy to see Chen Yuan wake up, she still couldn't hide the tired tiredness on her face. She maintained the same position for too long, and when Chen Yuan got up, she immediately stretched her legs. As if the tingling sensation of the electric current passing through her body quickly spread throughout her body, she couldn't help but make a little sound, "Whew......"
Chen Yuan sat down next to her, a little distressed, "You won't let me pill your lap since I fell asleep, right?"
Shen Jingyuan shook her head, as if she was a little shy, "No, I still went to the toilet halfway." ”
"Why are you so stupid?"
"You're stupid!"
"Can't just put me on the ground?"
"It's definitely more comfortable on my lap than lying on the floor!"
Chen Yuan was still thinking about arguing with her again, but suddenly the familiar hunger pang came from his abdomen.
The second time something like this happened, he didn't have too many waves in his heart.
"You're right, go to bed. ”
With that, he stood up.
Shen Jingyuan glanced at him and muttered, "Originally, what I said was right." Seeing Chen Yuan stand up, she tilted her head and asked him, "Aren't you sleeping?"
"I'm hungry, so I'm going to find something to eat. ”
Shen Jingyuan smiled, "You have a really good appetite, you eat when you wake up, and sleep when you're full, like a pig, hahaha." ”
"Hurry up and go to bed. ”
Chen Yuan was too lazy to argue with her. Now he needs to eat as soon as possible so that the hunger in his body can be eliminated quickly. The surrounding partners were basically lying on the ground and asleep, only Gao Xu was next to Yang Yalin, almost half-asleep. Chen Yuan walked to the side of the car as lightly as he could, and then opened the trunk.
Because they will continue to move forward tomorrow after filling up the gas, some supplies have not been brought off the car. Finding the bag full of food, Chen Yuan began to eat greedily.
Thirty minutes later, he leaned against the trunk of his Lincoln and looked up in satisfaction.
Looking at the night sky of Jialing from this position, it was rare for him to see countless stars twinkling brightly.
The hunger was gone, and the bloodthirsty urge was not revealed, and he raised his hand to light a cigarette, blowing a cloud of smoke into the sky.
He hadn't had time to think calmly about what had happened yesterday, and now he had to think about it carefully.
The first is the words left by Dr. Liao in the video.
After the outbreak of the virus began at Jialing International Airport, those infected with the virus flew directly to the rest of the world on flights that day. In other words, there is a high probability that the whole world is now in danger.
Dr. Liao said at the time that Jialing had been given up, and they had been given up. Then armed men with guns rushed in and slaughtered them.
Thinking of that scene at that time, Chen Yuan felt that the cells in his body were trembling unconsciously. Why did armed men with guns rush in and kill people? Chen Yuan couldn't figure it out. Could it be that the helicopter they saw that day was not there to save people at all, but to kill people?
But why? According to Dr. Liao, Jialing became a hell in one day. There must have been countless people who had turned into zombies because of the infection. Could it be that the people in the shelter were worried that they had become carriers of the virus, so they gave up the rescue and turned into a massacre?
There are no precise answers to all the questions, and the identity of the armed men with guns is a mystery, and it is not clear from their clothing which side they represent in the video.
Chen Yuan sighed weakly.
If every Vault is at risk of being wiped out, is it necessary for them to continue to look for places like that? Reasonably, if there are armed forces like the one in the video, it means that the world is not completely broken. There must be a place where everything is safe.
Chen Yuan looked at the brightest star above his head, and he felt that his idea must be right. It's just that he doesn't know where that place is.
And that strange zombie you met in the Tech Building. Why did that zombie attack him? And he knew how to use his hands to block bullets. This shows that the zombie can not only define him as a target, but can even recognize the danger of the gun. It was so strange that the situation made him feel uneasy.
He couldn't help but wonder if it could be the result of Dr. Liao's medical experiments. Maybe it's because of a certain amount of treatment, although the virus can't be completely eliminated from the body, but it has a little bit of something like thinking. At the moment, it seems that I can only think along this line.
Chen Yuan scratched his hair vigorously, and he had to be more careful when he encountered zombies in the future. If there is a loophole in your own conjecture, then maybe that strange zombie may exist elsewhere.
He puffed on the smoke and continued to think.
The next plan can only be to go to the coastal villa area for a while to see how the water and electricity situation is there. I remember that I seemed to have heard Xu He say that the villa area has an independent water and electricity system, but I don't know how long it can last. Hopefully, everyone can spend this time there in peace before he finds his next stronghold.
Throw away the cigarette butt in your hand, get up and close the trunk of the car. After briefly observing the surrounding situation, he walked into the factory steadily.
The original candle had been extinguished, and Shen Jingyuan re-lit one, she sat there and looked at him, then covered her mouth and yawned.
"Why aren't you sleeping yet?"
Chen Yuan sat down next to her, speechless for a while.
"Wait for you, otherwise if you go out to eat alone, and when you come back, everyone is asleep, and there is no light, then you will definitely feel a little lost. ”
Shen Jingyuan smiled softly, "Now I am waiting for you and helping you light the candles, in this way, you will feel at home, and you will feel very warm." ”
"What ...... feel like home"
Chen Yuan was stunned and repeated it in a low voice.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that since his grandparents left him, he hardly feels at home. At this time, when he suddenly heard Shen Jingyuan say this, he couldn't help but have a warm feeling in his heart, which was very comfortable and made him a little infatuated.
Seeing his expression, Shen Jingyuan gently leaned over and asked, "How is it, are you very moved?"
"Well, it feels like we've been a couple for years. ”
"You're going to die!"
Chen Yuan slept very lightly this night, and after dawn, he was woken up by the noisy sound in his ears.
sat up and looked at it, and found that it was Gao Xu and a few of them surrounding Yang Yalin, who didn't know what they were arguing about.
Somewhat guessed something.
He sighed, got up and walked over there.
What should come will come eventually, he has always believed in it.
"I don't want to become a zombie, please kill me, kill me!"
Yang Yalin grabbed Gao Xu's arm, as if pleading.
Gao Xu lowered his head, still unwilling to accept this fact.
He gritted his teeth, tears on his face, "Arlinn, hold on, we're going to the villa today, haven't you always liked that place?"
Yang Yalin shook her head helplessly, "No, I won't go." ”
Yan Wei crouched next to her and cried, she held a thermometer in her hand, her voice was full of sadness, "Xiaobin, what should I do? Arlinn's body temperature is already forty degrees, what should we do......
Yang Bin looked at her, could only keep shaking his head and then hugged her in his arms.
Gu Yan sat calmly next to Yang Yalin, her face was still as white as snow. She looked into Yang Yalin's eyes and asked softly, "Arlinn, do you really want to die?"
Hearing her ask this, Gao Xu turned his head to look at her in disbelief.
Yang Yalin showed a complicated smile, and then nodded slowly, "Hmm." ”
Gu Yan's eyes shone with a little light, she held the handle of the knife in her right hand, and said faintly, "Then I'll help you." ”
Seeing that she was about to draw a knife, Gao Xu hurriedly stopped her and shouted, "What are you going to do, Gu Yan!"
Gu Yan's expression didn't have any waves, she looked at Gao Xu quietly, and said softly, "She's in pain, I don't want to see her in such pain." ”
Chen Yuan walked over at this time, and he patted Gao Xu's shoulder, "It's okay, Ah Xu, it's okay." ”
Tears poured out of his eyes again, and Gao Xu knew very well what Chen Yuan's words meant.
Feelings are a very strange thing.
In fact, he and Yang Yalin didn't really spend much time together. But he really regarded her as the person he would protect for the rest of his life, and he hoped to live with her in this zombie-infested world. When Yang Yalin agreed to try dating him, he really thought he was dreaming. For several days, he woke up laughing when he slept at night, and he really thought that this beautiful dream could go on forever.
But now, this dream is shattered, completely shattered.
Chen Yuan finally decided that he would personally send Yang Yalin away, he had experienced the feeling of a novice killing his companion, and he knew very well the pain of powerlessness. He didn't want Gu Yan and them to bear this. Anyway, he can be regarded as a person with one experience, and the same thing can be done again.
Damn, I said I didn't want to go through it a second time.
He smoked a cigarette, looked at Yang Yalin lying on the side, thought about it, and asked, "Do you have any last words or wishes?"
Yang Yalin smiled and shook her head, "Thank you, Brother Yuan, if you have the opportunity to meet my parents in the future, please help me tell them that I miss them very much, and please help me tell Ah Xu that I am very happy and happy in the past few days with him, and I really like him." ”
