Chapter 52: Zombies in the Fitting Room
Maybe Zhou Beichen's smile was too dazzling and his tone was too gentle, Mei Xiuwen was stunned for a moment at first, then took the water and carefully poured it, twisted the bottle cap and handed it back to Zhou Beichen. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info Zhou Beichen waved his hand and motioned for Mei Xiuwen to keep it for himself, Mei Xiuwen thanked him in a low voice, and couldn't help but take two more sips after withdrawing his hand. He was so thirsty that he could only drink one and a half bottles of water every day for the past few days, and his throat was dry and smoking, which was actually one of the reasons why he didn't speak.
It's just that Mei Xiuwen has a cold and stubborn personality and is unwilling to ask for help, so even if he is very thirsty, he never asks Qin Qin and his team for water to drink. And because Mei Xiuwen kept his mouth tight, Zhou Beichen didn't notice the young man's chapped lips, and he didn't hand out the bottle of water until Mei Xiuwen vomited just now. This bottle of water not only soothed the young man's thirsty throat, but also moistened his heart, which had never been warmed since entering the last days.
"That's it." With Dou Le's whispered cheers, the last zombie lay on the ground, and Zhao Qi, who had been in charge of monitoring, did not find any danger. In the next time, the five people except Qin Qin took the initiative to collect the loot, and Qin Qin honestly walked to Mei Xiuwen's side, avoiding the disgusting scene and giving Mei Xiuwen a science popularization. "They're looking for a crystal nucleus. Some zombies have crystal nuclei in their heads, and don't ask me how this came about, I don't know. However, the Nucleus can be used to boost your body and abilities. Uh, looking at your confused expression, don't you know what an ability is? ”
Mei Xiuwen shook his head.
Qin Qin explained: "It's too troublesome to explain it in detail, so I'll give you a rough explanation, anyway, I don't know what the specific principle is." You've definitely seen those sci-fi movies or novels, and the enhancements and abilities are similar to what you see on TV, such as being very strong and being able to unleash a fireball or something. The crystal nucleus is a small, transparent spherical object that can stimulate the body's enhancement and ability upgrades, but the crystal nucleus has little effect on ordinary people. ”
Mei Xiuwen nodded in understanding, Qin Qin heard that he had succeeded in popularizing science, and happily patted Mei Xiuwen's shoulder and said, "You don't have to care about it now, it's not too late to collect it after awakening the ability." Among the zombies now, there are very few crystal nuclei, probably only a quarter to a third of the total, so many times it can only be in vain. ”
As soon as Qin Qin finished speaking, several people who were becoming more and more proficient in crystal nucleus digging skills had already walked back to her side. Zhou Beichen held the water bottle and carefully rinsed the crystal nucleus, then handed it to Qin Qin to put away. Qin Qin stuck out his tongue and complained depressedly that there was only one crystal nucleus this time, and the zombies were so picky. Mei Xiuwen, who was watching from the sidelines, was surprised to find that Zhou Beichen actually used the water he drank to wash the crystal nucleus.
Qin Qin saw Mei Xiuwen's surprised expression, and said in a low voice: "Xiuwen, our team is not short of water to drink, you can come to me to get water whenever you are thirsty, but this matter must be kept secret." Although Qin Qin didn't say it directly, but linking this sentence with the ability she had just said before, it was not difficult for Mei Xiuwen to guess the truth. This was also discussed between Qin Qin and Zhou Beichen, to gradually reveal the extraordinary features of the team to Mei Xiuwen and attract him to join the team. Anyway, Mei Xiuwen's character is the kind of person whose grace of dripping water will definitely be reciprocated, so he is not afraid that he will reveal Qin Qin's secret to outsiders.
Among the onlookers, Zhou Beichen and Yang Lan needless to say. Although Lu Letian was a little unhappy with the cold and arrogant appearance of this little kid, he and Dou Le could see that Qin Qin intended to take care of Mei Xiuwen, and might soon invite Mei Xiuwen to join the team, so they didn't say anything. Anyway, as long as the almighty Captain Qin Qin is happy, maybe she knew this boy before.
Zhao Qi has never recovered from the shock of Qin Qin's big change of six glasses of milk in the morning, so he was a little slower when he hit the zombies just now. She is now full of all kinds of speculations flying all over the screen, like what kind of portable farming space, binding trading system, and even the setting that Qin Qin has a door to another world has been thought of. If Qin Qin wants to know Zhao Qi's thoughts, he probably has to give a thumbs up, and sincerely praise that his imagination is too rich.
Qin Qin beckoned everyone to walk into the store, and as soon as he entered the store, he heard a banging sound from the depths of the store. Qin Qin clenched her weapon and cautiously walked over to check, only to find that it was a door in the fitting room that was slammed. Qin Qin glanced at Zhou Beichen with inquiring eyes, and Zhou Beichen helplessly spread his hands, signaling that he couldn't do anything. The door of the fitting room in this store is very simple, that is, a door panel is installed on the door shaft, which can only be pushed inward, and there is a gap of about a foot up and down, and people can insert the latch inside after entering, and there is no way to open it outside. Zhou Beichen felt that since the zombies couldn't come out, they didn't need to go through the trouble of splitting the door and letting the zombies out and killing them.
Qin Qin shrugged his shoulders and announced that he would have free time for the next ten minutes, and everyone would pack the clothes they could wear and box them together, and at the same time, they would also have to collect some loose clothes casually. Mei Xiuwen didn't understand what Qin Qin's strange order meant, but he thought that he was just an outsider who had been receiving favors, so he was embarrassed to ask. Mei Xiuwen looked at the clothes and didn't feel much interest, so he turned his head to look at the fitting room where there was a zombie, and hesitantly made a request to Qin Qin: "Sister Qin, can I go and kill that zombie?" I want to exercise more and train myself. ”
Qin Qin raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you planning to split the door and release the zombies?" ”
Mei Xiuwen shook his head and pointed to the door of the fitting room and explained seriously: "Sister Qin, you see, there is about a foot of space under the door of the fitting room from the ground, and I can easily shovel the legs and feet of the zombies inside with a shovel, so that the zombies will naturally fall to the ground." If it's with its feet outwards and its head in, I can pull it out and then kill it. If it was head-on, I could have cut its neck off, and then it would still have its arms trapped in the fitting room, and it wouldn't even have to resist. ”
After hearing this novel idea, Qin Qin's eyes lit up and said, "Then let's try it." Sounds very reliable, Xiuwen, your brain is spinning so fast. ”
Mei Xiuwen smiled shyly, did not answer, but walked to a meter in front of the fitting room, half-knelt on the ground and looked in. A pair of gray-skinned feet stood in the door, moving from side to side from time to time, as if trying to find a way out. Mei Xiuwen clenched the shovel with both hands and shoveled it down fiercely.
I only heard a plop, and the zombies in the fitting room fell to the ground as Mei Xiuwen expected, but their feet were facing outward, and they were kicking their legs from time to time. The wound on the zombie's ankle was deep, but because the blood in the corpse no longer flowed, only a small amount of dirty blood slowly flowed out of the wound. Mei Xiuwen clenched his teeth and slashed the zombie's other foot as well. Then he rushed out of the fitting room and came back with a pair of jeans, tied the zombie's feet tightly together, and slowly dragged it outward with the knot.
As the zombie was dragged out little by little, Mei Xiuwen's face became redder and redder, because the zombie seemed to be a woman, and it was not covered by any clothes until the middle of her thighs. Qin Qin looked at Mei Xiuwen, whose face was red as if he was about to drip blood, and kindly suggested: "Xiuwen, why don't you go out first, and I'll kill it before you come in?" ”
Mei Xiuwen gritted his teeth, shook his head and refused. "No, this zombie is what I proposed to kill, how can I let you take the risk? Sister Qin, don't help, I'll definitely be able to kill it! ”
Qin Qin closed her mouth, nodded obediently, and kindly did not tell Mei Xiuwen what she thought in her heart. In fact, it is no longer a risk for her to kill a zombie now. But it's rare for Mei Xiuwen to be so courageous, and he can't dampen the enthusiasm of the young man to bravely face the red ** zombies.
With the appearance of the base of the thigh, Mei Xiuwen breathed a sigh of relief, and thankfully, the zombie was still wearing underwear. In fact, Mei Xiuwen is just a shy nature, today's zombies have a blue and gray complexion, and their muscles are slowly shrinking, making their bones look extraordinarily prominent, and with the sharp nails that gradually grow, they are more like monsters than humans. Mei Xiuwen bit his lip, kept his gaze on his waist and abdomen, which was not very rude, and then pulled the zombie out violently with both hands.
The zombie's feet were tied, but its entire upper body and arms were constantly struggling and waving, looking anxious and angry. Maybe it's because she hasn't eaten since the end of the world, the female zombie's waving arms look a little weak, and the struggle of the whole body is not violent. Mei Xiuwen squinted slightly, kicked the zombie over with one kick, and shoveled a shovel at the back of the zombie's neck before the zombie got up. Two, three...... Soon, the zombie's entire head was cut off.
Mei Xiuwen exhaled a long breath, this was the first zombie he killed alone, and the process was not thrilling, which gave the young man a little more confidence. Maybe he will slowly become very powerful, able to kill many zombies, eat and drink from now on, live a happy life, and at the same time have the ability to repay the people who have helped him kindly.
"Good job, this is the first zombie you've killed alone, right? Ever feeling excited? Qin Qin's voice came from the side.
Mei Xiuwen nodded vigorously, indicating that he was indeed very excited, and he didn't even feel sick to his stomach anymore. He pointed to the zombie's head and asked, "Sister Qin, can you tell me where the crystal nucleus is?" I'd like to see if there's anything to be done. ”
Qin Qin's face that was still full of smiles just now suddenly became bitter, she glanced at Mei Xiuwen sadly, and whispered with a pout: "Anyway, it's in the middle of the head, you can find it yourself, I'll go out first." With that, Qin Qin quickly ran out of the fitting room, leaving Mei Xiuwen with an inexplicable face standing in place.
Zhou Beichen stood at the entrance on the other side of the fitting room at some point, and he forced a smile to explain Qin Qin's strange problem to Mei Xiuwen, who was a little overwhelmed-when he was fighting zombies, he vomited a lot when he got the crystal nucleus. So now the people in the team are very accommodating to Qin Qin, and let her stay away when taking the crystal nucleus.
Mei Xiuwen nodded suddenly, and then rummaged through it under the guidance of Zhou Beichen. Luckily for him, this zombie happened to have a crystal nucleus growing in his brain. Mei Xiuwen took out the crystal nucleus, first rubbed the blood stains and brain pulp on the jeans that bound the zombie's feet, and then carefully rinsed the crystal nucleus with a little water. Mei Xiuwen stood up with the crystal nucleus, thanked Zhou Beichen first, and then walked out of the fitting room to find Qin Qin, who was picking out clothes, and handed over the crystal nucleus.
Qin Qin was a little surprised, but he still pushed the crystal nucleus back and said, "Don't give it to me." You killed the zombie yourself, and you own the crystal nucleus, and you can use it when you awaken the ability. ”
Mei Xiuwen shook his head, stubbornly handed the crystal nucleus in his hand to Qin Qin again, and at the same time whispered a word: "This is part of the reward you brought me, and I will find a way to pay you back the rest." ”
Qin Qin glanced at Mei Xiuwen in surprise, thinking that this future master actually knew how to be grateful, and he had to hand over the crystal nucleus to himself even if he was a zombie, it seemed that his idea of inviting him to join was very hopeful. Thinking of this, Qin Qin took the crystal nucleus and pretended to ask inadvertently, "That, Xiuwen, do you want to join our team?" I see that you learn very quickly, and you don't seem to be afraid of fighting zombies, so you will live with us in the future? ”
Mei Xiuwen blinked, barely suppressed the excitement in his heart, didn't speak, just looked at Qin Qin fixedly.
Qin Qin was a little embarrassed by his staring, and coughed lightly twice, because he was afraid that Mei Xiuwen would directly refuse to join, so he immediately added: "You don't have to answer in a hurry, just tell me the answer before returning to the base the day after tomorrow." I'm going to move things first, you pick out your clothes. With that, Qin Qin quickly ran towards the others, leaving Mei Xiuwen, whose eyes were already a little moist, standing in place.
Zhou Beichen, who had completely taken this scene into his eyes, sighed softly, he knew that Qin Qin just listened to his words, and was so good to him in order to win Mei Xiuwen into the team. In fact, Qin Qin himself Mei Xiuwen, who was several years younger than him, did not have any wrong thoughts. However, looking at Mei Xiuwen's expression, he seemed to have a good impression of Qin Qin, not only did he seem well-behaved and obedient, but he also gave Qin Qin the first trophy. Zhou Beichen didn't want to give birth to the heart of a villain, he just wanted to know, is this good feeling out of gratitude, or out of love?
