Chapter 19: The Lady of Sighs (55)

On the third day when I regained my memory, I ate the food of this world for the first time. It was a lump of lean meat about half the size of my palm, greasy and somewhat cold. "This, this is?" I instinctively looked in the direction where Shen Lin, who claimed to be a nurse, was (although I still couldn't see anything because my eyes hadn't recovered.) He asked, "What kind of meat is this?"

Shen Lin smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "This is hare meat, it has been left for a long time, and there is no way to make a fire now, so it is a little cold, don't you mind." But I've baked it before. ”

"No, I don't mean to ask what kind of meat it is. I swallowed the meat and asked, "Since you said that we are now in a post-apocalyptic age, food and water are extremely scarce." But why were you able to provide me with a piece of meat for me to eat? And what do you eat?"

Shen Lin didn't answer my words immediately, and I heard the sound of chewing coming from Shen Lin's mouth. But if you listen closely, you will see that the head nurse did not eat the rabbit meat I ate, but something similar to a wild vegetable. This chewing sound lasted for about a minute or two, and as I heard Shen Lin put the food I didn't know in his mouth with great difficulty, I said to me with a smile: "Of course, I eat much better than you." After all, I still have to go out to find food and other supplies. ”

"You're eating wild vegetables, aren't you? I sneered and said, "Moreover, the piece of meat I eat should be the last piece of meat you have stored." Plus, you haven't eaten meat in days, right? ”

Shen Lin sighed, sat next to me, and was silent for a long time.

"Do you know why I still ate this piece of meat?" I patted her leg, feeling the smoothness of her thighs in shorts. "Actually, when I received the meat you gave me, I already knew that you were short of food right now. But I ate it anyway, and I don't believe you have anything to say. ”

"Yes, you're right. Shen Lin sighed softly: "This is indeed my last piece of meat." And the last time I ate meat was half a month ago. I'm going to go out and find something to eat as soon as I'm done this time. ”

"How long will you be able to last it?" I asked, "After you eat this meal, how many more days will you be able to last?"

"Huh? What are you talking about。。。。。。 Shen Lin paused for a moment, but then understood, and replied: "You mean, are you about to recover? However, don't you still remember a lot of things clearly, and even if you recover, it will still take time for you to rest." Besides, you don't know how threatening the situation out there is. Except for the base dozens of kilometers away, we may be the last non-zombie life in the world. Perhaps, the people in that base are already dead. ”

Well, it really looks like it's a nightmare world. During the few days I was resting, Shen Lin told me about some of the things that happened in this world. Listening to Shen Lin, it seems that this world suddenly broke out of a virus more than ten years ago, and such a virus has extremely powerful and terrifying lethality. These viruses are capable of turning a living, normal human into a zombie that feeds on flesh and blood without any consciousness and only thinks about eating meat in a very short time. And now, there are not many humans left in this world, and there are zombies eating human flesh everywhere.

I seem to have heard of this somewhere. By the way, didn't that maverick human named Qi Tianci tell us that he was not from our time, but from a great cataclysm hundreds of thousands of years ago. And the catastrophe that Qi Tianci said seems to have something to do with the present. Ah, I patted my forehead, could it be that I came hundreds of thousands of years ago?

But later, I thought about what the killer Breitso said before, although I was not too conscious at that time, but I could still know that at that time, when the mourner was about to kill us, Breitso, who had disappeared for a long time, suddenly appeared in front of the mourner and attacked the mourner who was careless and defenseless, and also asked the tiger king to break something. Then a pillar of white light suddenly appeared from the Tiger King, and I lost consciousness. By the time I regained consciousness, I was already here.

However, the things that scared me the most were already face-to-face battles, and what would I be afraid of in this world? "Don't worry. I was relieved, "Maybe the world is like a nightmare for you, but for me, it's not that bad. Trust me, I'll be able to keep you alive. By the way, where are we now? ”

"We're in a cave. However, unlike the other caves, the entrance and exit of the cave we are in now are on it. Well, technically this place is actually a trap, but I narrowed the hole and added a simple door to cover it, and left a rope ladder for entry and exit, so I don't have to worry about safety. ”

"That's good. "I breathe a sigh of relief, if the outside world is really like what Shen Lin said, then it is a serious threat to her. But fortunately, Shen Lin has made full preparations, which can ensure that there will not be any zombies in Shen Lin's mouth here. "That's fine, then, you don't have to go out. When I regain my sight, I'll bring you something to eat. However, I can't guarantee how long we will survive. "I'm sorry, Shen Lin, I can't guarantee how long you will survive, after all, your extinction is doomed history.

"It's fine. Shen Lin is very open-minded about this matter. "I've been lucky enough to live in this apocalyptic world for more than ten years, and I don't know when I've been facing death every day. If I hadn't wanted to be like those zombies, I would have died a long time ago. But I didn't want to kill myself, so I lived in this world for more than ten years. In the past ten years, I lost my precious son in the early days of the disaster, and then my precious daughter in the third year. By last year, my brother and husband had become zombies and committed suicide. So, I don't really have any point in living now, but, but I don't want to die like this, I don't really want to die like this... After speaking, I heard Shen Lin's cry.

It's a very sad cry. From this cry, I could hear that Shen Lin's heart was really uncomfortable, and she was about to collapse. I don't know what this ordinary woman has been through in the past ten years, but I think if I were her, I would have died in this world a long time ago. "Don't worry, really don't worry. I patted Shen Lin on the shoulder and said to her, "I'm a very powerful undead, these zombies are really nothing to me, although I haven't seen them." ”

"Ahh

Alas, how can this woman's reflexes be so slow. Obviously, I said a few days ago that I was an undead, and this woman who was obviously missing a tendon in her head only found out now. "Alas, Shen Lin, Shen Lin, how big your life should be. Your head is obviously tendoned, but you are still blessed with a great life. And I'm not just an undead, I'm a former elf. Also, I'm not from now, well, now that I think about it, I should be from a world hundreds of thousands of years from now. ”

"How many, hundreds of thousands of years later?" Shen Lin's voice was very surprised, and exclaimed: "How is this possible? Is this crazy for you or am I crazy, since you said that you are from the future, then how can you come to the present?"

"There's something incomprehensible about this. "Although even I don't know how I got here, I can only deliberately act disappreciative, so as not to make Shen Lin feel even more panicked. "Looks like you don't know what magic is, and you humans were the only ones who dominated the world before. But in our day, although there are human beings。。。。。。 ”

"Wait, you're talking about human beings? There were human beings in your time? Are you telling the truth?" Shen Lin suddenly interrupted me and asked with joy, "Are you saying that there were still human beings in your time?" Oh my God, it turns out that we persevered!"

"What you stuck to the past. Without thinking, I said, "The humans I'm talking about are not your generation of humans, but the zombies you are talking about." You will perish in this time. Not... "Why did I say this, why did I say this? I felt extremely regretful, and tried to turn over this bad memory for Shen Lin. So he said: "In our time, there were not only human beings, but also many interesting races, and human beings were just one of them, in addition to orcs, barbarians, dwarves, elves, undead and other races, and countless small races. And we're in an age full of magic, so it's a big disaster for you, but it's really nothing to me. As long as my glasses are back to health, then as long as I am here, I will be able to protect you. In addition, I forgot to mention, I am still a good archery master, in my time, I and another elf, yes, elves are the two best archery in the world. "Ciel, speaking of this, my heart is also a little sour, how is Ciel, what happened to the other companions, did they escape, or were they killed by the mourner? I don't know, I really don't know.

In addition, I found another thing, that is, why didn't Shen Lin speak anymore? Although I still can't see anything for the time being, I can still feel that Shen Lin sitting next to me seems to be sobbing. "You, why don't you speak?"

And Shen Lin didn't answer my words, she just sobbed and cried.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have told you about your future. Me, I just said that I slipped out. I felt very sorry and said to her apologetically, "I know your history, you are a great race, and you have left a lot of things, even if we still use them. "Actually, hundreds of thousands of years have passed, and everything they used has long since disappeared without a trace, and where are there any relics?

Sure enough, my comfort didn't help. "You know, even if there are relics that have been handed down to your time, they don't mean anything to me to us as a whole. Why, why did God treat us like this, why? ”

I didn't know what to say, and I really didn't know what to comfort her. Life is like this, generation after generation of lives are constantly dying, but the lives of new generations are still springing up like mushrooms after a rain, and disappearing one after another. Even I don't know when we're going to perish. Apostles, they were a little early. It's just that what about this woman, now she seems to have completely collapsed. After a long time, I said: "Shen Lin, survival is like this, no matter what race it is, there will be a day when it will be completely extinct." And even if you don't go extinct, you don't have anything to do with it now, do you? Your relatives are all dead, and you don't have any offspring. Can you live for hundreds of thousands of years yourself? How is that possible? I know, what I'm saying is a bit blunt, but it's true. You can only grieve for your own fate. ”

Sure enough, after I said this, Shen Lin became even more sad. But after a minute or two had passed, Shen Lin suddenly perked up and smiled at me: "Sigh, sigh lightly, lady? What you said is really straightforward." Don't you know that your words have filled me with despair for the future?"

"This... "I don't know what to say. Perhaps, what I just said was too cruel.
