Josh: He's dead.

Zhong Liwu's words resounded in Zhong Zizhen's heart like thunder, shaking his five organs and nauseating, he stiffly blocked in front of Du Yiming, but he didn't know what to say and do, Josh died...... Of course he knows, of course he knows! But is this going to send Josh to the crematorium and burn him to ashes? Such an ending is too tragic and too unacceptable.

People who were fine yesterday, so young and beautiful, should be engulfed in fire like this, and there will be no evidence of their existence left? Even if it is clear that Josh is dead, Du Yiming's thoughts are not only Josh's wishes, but also the best choice at present, even if he understands in his heart, how can Zhong Zizhen accept it so calmly-

That's Josh! Zhong Zizhen lowered his head, isn't there a better way?!

Du Yiming didn't speak, just stood with Josh in his arms, the two held each other for a long time, Zhong Liwu finally collapsed, walked to Zhong Zizhen's side and held Zhong Zizhen's arm, "Brother! Get out of the way! Get out of the way...... Are you going to put Josh here and see him and he becomes unrecognizable? Just let him—"

Zhong Lifu's words, why didn't Zhong Zizhen understand? No matter how sad he is in his heart, he can't implicate Josh's body because of his emotions, so isn't that an insult to Josh? Body...... Zhong Zizhen's heart was extremely desolate, he actually used this word, didn't he also admit from his heart that Josh was really gone forever?

The sky outside the window opposite was bright and dazzling.

The spring water failed to save Josh, who was already dead by that time. Has it been almost a day...... Judging from the current weather, I'm afraid Josh's body won't last long, right? That's why Yiming and divorce are ...... It's been prepared for a long time, and it's forced to accept such a result, right?

Zhong Zizhen's back bent down, the whole person seemed to be shrouded in shadows, his body shook, and finally moved to the side, out of the way. This simple action made Zhong Zizhen feel extremely difficult, and with Zhong Zizhen's action of getting out of the way, his posture seemed to become decadent and slumped, huddled behind the door, like a dark shadow that could not see the light, tasting all the pain alone.

Zhong Liwu's heart was uncomfortable, although he agreed...... But he really couldn't watch Josh get ...... He glanced at Du Yiming, he pursed his lips and stood beside Zhong Zizhen, looking away and staring at his toes.

Du Yiming glanced at Zhong Zizhen deeply, hugged Josh's arms tightly, hesitated for a moment and finally took a step, passed by Zhong Zizhen, and stepped out of the door, the bitterness in his heart had nowhere to be complained, and there was no way to retreat from the high-altitude hanging wire, so he could only smile bitterly with sour eyes, is all the helplessness in the world concentrated here.

It's obviously very mindful, but he can't blame his brother, and that's exactly what he does, and he is not willing to comfort and explain himself. Naturally, Josh would not blame anyone for his death, nor did he want anyone to have a trace of self-blame and apologies for his departure, he wanted to do what Josh wanted. But he knew in his heart that Josh's death had always left a mark on everyone's hearts, becoming an insurmountable threshold that would not be easily lifted, across everyone's hearts.

Naturally, they are still a team, trusting each other and uniting in this cruel apocalypse, in order to find a way to survive. But they can't go back to the way things were.

Everything is different, but you still have to live the same way.

It's hilarious. But he couldn't laugh at all.

Du Yiming soon arrived at the stairs in the corridor, but suddenly heard a "bang" behind him, and the sound of hurried footsteps was extremely messy, followed by Zhong Zizhen's shouting, "Yiming, wait and don't go!" Josh isn't dead yet! ”

Zhong Liwu also chased out of the room, seeing Zhong Zizhen so stunned, the sadness in his heart was almost overflowing, he hugged Zhong Zizhen from behind, and his hoarse voice carried a broken cry, "Brother, brother...... I beg you, I beg you, don't do this. It's not your fault, don't do that. ”

The footsteps stopped for a second, Du Yiming covered the depressed depression in his eyes, and took steps again. He can understand Zhong Zizhen's regret, and he wishes that it hadn't happened, but even if he doesn't admit the facts, what can he change? - Is there any effect other than to keep the living people bathed in grief all the time?

There should be a limit to weakness. Running away will only make people more angry and angry. He didn't want to spill all his sadness and anger on the people Josh cared about.

"No, I'm not joking! I'm serious! Li, Yiming," Zhong Zizhen saw Du Yiming's movements, and said anxiously, "Didn't you find out that something was wrong - Josh, how long he was dead, his body did not appear ossified-Lifu will not know, Yiming, you should know that after a person dies, the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in the body continues to decompose and can no longer be synthesized, the muscles will contract, and the corpse will become hard." It's usually three to four hours, four to six hours to spread all over the body, twelve to sixteen hours to peak — you know, Josh has been dead for less than twenty-four hours, you see, you think, Josh's body ......"

Zhong Zizhen's words were chaotic and confusing, but the two people present could not hear it very clearly-this is common sense in itself, and it is even clearer after Zhong Zizhen's reminder-

Josh's body, let alone stiff, is no different from an ordinary person except for being cold. The hearts of the two were like being held by a rope, and suddenly mentioned in mid-air, Du Yiming's hands holding Josh began to tremble, and he could still maintain his composure, but at this moment, a tide-like fear welled up in his heart, making his legs uncontrollably sore, trembling, and almost unable to stand.

Du Yiming looked down at Josh in his arms, there was no dead air on his face, as if he was asleep, if it weren't for the cold temperature and undulating chest, if it wasn't for the absolutely forbidden snort, and the silent pulse and heartbeat, how could he be sure that Josh was dead?

Excessive fear blinded his eyes and thoughts, and he even ignored this. Du Yiming's eyes were hot, he took a deep breath and turned around, taking extremely steady steps step by step, for fear of falling accidentally, but after a while, he returned to the small door again, he raised his eyes, looked at Zhong Liwu, who was also shocked mixed with surprise or disbelief, and Zhong Zizhen, who had a determination to burn people in his eyes, and the words rolled in his throat a few times, before he said what he said in a less trembling voice.

Placing Josh on the bed, closing the doors and windows and turning on the lights, the three of them gathered again in front of Josh's bed, setting off the small cabin to be extremely crowded.

Zhong Zizhen clenched his hand into a fist and pressed it on his chest, facing the eager inquiring gaze of his younger brother and best friend, closed his eyes and took a deep breath, he had a conjecture in his heart when he found this clue, combined with the information and situation he already knew, his thoughts were already very clear when he opened his eyes.

"Yiming, divorce," Zhong Zizhen's voice was a little dry, Lingquan and space have always been the most bottom-line guarantee since the end of his life, and he can give him the confidence to arrange actions at any time, although he did not deliberately conceal the slightest leak, but if he wants to say it, he also needs to be mentally prepared, "I think you should all guess that I have been hiding a secret - I never said it, and now I tell you." Zhong Zizhen paused, and when he looked around, he found that the expressions of the two were very solemn, and the tacit understanding between life and death for a long time let him know that no matter what he was about to say, these two people would be tight-lipped...... With a long exhale, Zhong Zizhen made up his mind, "Actually, there is actually a mysterious space on my body—unlike the ambiguous storage space, there is land and a spiritual spring in my space—the spring water in it can not only stimulate the awakening of the ability, but also fight against the zombie virus." As long as you don't completely die and become a zombie, you can be rescued by the spiritual spring water...... I don't have enough samples for experiments, but I feel this way. ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhong Liwu gasped, and Du Yiming's expression was also solemn. After going through so much, they naturally understand what this means, the reason why the disaster of the end times is terrible is that there is no effective vaccine for the zombie virus, as long as the infection is confirmed, in addition to the miracle, they will definitely die, and they will become a member of the zombie army after death.

Our downsizing and local increases in numbers, and going down this path is the end of humanity. And the spiritual spring water, which is equivalent to antibodies, if exposed, will bring them endless troubles - before they have absolute control over the base, it is tantamount to a child holding gold in the market, and it may kill them at any time.

It's the same thing that Josh just has a healing ability and hides his worries day and night. Before saving someone, can't you guarantee yourself first? Moreover, people's hearts are complicated, and the story of the farmer and the snake is just a common thing in the last days.

"My attitude towards Josh, after that, slowly." Seeing that the two understood the situation, Zhong Zizhen continued, "It's just that it's not that perfect, I can only take out a little spiritual spring water every once in a while, and the spiritual spring water will lose its effect if it is left outside for a long time." At that time, I had just overdrawn and took out the spiritual spring water to feed Yiming, and I saw that Josh had already ...... He was still using the healing power on me and the Divorce at the last moment, and I used all my strength to give Josh a ...... I didn't expect it to be late......"

Before he could feed Josh to the Spring, Josh was dead. The spiritual spring is magical, but it can't bring the dead back to life, so Josh is still ...... The fact was reiterated again, and the three of them could not hide their deep sorrow in their hearts, and the atmosphere fell silent for a while.

In the end, it was Du Yiming who broke the silence, "You mean...... Although the spiritual spring water failed to revive Josh, it played a role in Josh's body, so that his body did not die and maintained such a state of balance? ”

This is not an easy topic. Even if the body is not stiff, what is the point? If consciousness dies, it is only ...... to preserve the body Wangmei quenches her thirst and paints bread to satisfy her hunger. It's just that there is the last glimmer of extravagant hope in his heart, looking forward to who can refute his desperate thoughts.

"Remember? According to the research of the Academy of Sciences, zombies are conscious, but most of their consciousness is erased by the instinct to eat and spread the virus - as long as the body functions remain intact, even people who are infected with the virus and become zombies may regain consciousness after receiving antibodies. There was a glitter in Zhong Zizhen's eyes, "As long as we preserve Josh's body, and wait until the antibody is developed, Josh will be able to come back." ”

"Antibodies?" Zhong Liwu was about to cry again, for so long, not to mention antibodies, even the nucleic acid sequence of the zombie virus has not been studied clearly, when will the antibodies appear? Zhong Lifu's question is tantamount to a basin of cold water poured on his head, slowly freezing all the luck and joy from head to toe, and isn't the spiritual spring water almost equivalent to antibodies, isn't it also useless.

Du Yiming was thoughtful, and after thinking for a few breaths, he said, "Even if this is the case, it would be good to be able to save his body." "Remain in this world, the last of the bonds, instead of turning into a handful of ashes, dissipating in this uncleared world.

These words made Zhong Liwu feel a little better, but for a moment, his face was like ashes, "Then where do we put Josh?" My space was too cramped, there was a lot of clutter like a grown-up warehouse, and ...... "I can't put living things, if Josh does wake up one day, wouldn't it be ......

Zhong Zizhen raised his head, "I'll try." My space is like the real world, it's no problem for me to go in it myself, I can still put him in the spiritual spring water......" He smiled in a low voice, desolate and sad, "I should be glad that he is like this now, and he is not alive......"

But now, what else can you do but try?

Zhong Zizhen put his hand on Josh, his mind moved, the space seemed to be a little resistant, but he did not refuse to react, but in an instant, the person on the bed was gone, Zhong Zizhen raised his eyes and looked at the two frowning people, wanting to pull away the corners of his mouth and smile, but in the end it was just a numb expression, "I still have a lot to tell you......" 166 Reading Network
