Chapter 28: The Abandoned Mine

With the torch lighting, everyone's faces were visibly relaxed. In this century-old mine, there are many tunnels that radiate in all directions, and the miners of the coal mine have been working in this dark mine for many years.

Fortunately, although the backpack on my back was scratched by some zombie birds and scattered a lot of food, there is still some food and water in the bag, which is enough for the four of us to last a few days.

Under the light of improvised torches, the mine zigzagged and went, and we can't remember how many tunnels we turned, except that they were very deep, and no one knew how deep they were. Some of the passages we had just walked had collapsed due to disrepair, and the falling stones blocked the tunnels, forcing us to turn back and choose a new path.

Coming to a very wide mine, where many of the old pit equipment has been corroded, the rails and coal carts that carry coal are rusted, and the roof of the mine is supported by thick logs, but because the logs have rotted for too long, it gives people the feeling that they are crumbling and ready to collapse at any time, and I am sure that the free people of those tribes are far from going deep into here, and we have reached the belly of the mountain.

"Big brother, when are we going?" Xia Kite was so tired that she couldn't walk, so she couldn't help but sit on a boulder, and the firelight reflected on her head and face and she could see a piece of fragrant sweat.

"Take a break!" The physical strength of the two women could not be compared with me and Zheng Zhe, so I had to stop moving forward, and took out some food and water from my backpack for everyone to eat.

I don't know how much time has passed, but fortunately there is a lot of wood in the mine, and we have made a few torches from this discarded wood. Humans always like to live in the light, and although I have night vision, lighting a torch also makes me feel more comfortable.

"Big brother, what if we can't get out?" Xia Kite sat next to me and whispered, and the question made me panic for a while, and I was not sure the answer to this question, so I could only cheer Xia Kite and say as if I was encouraging myself: "I can go out!" Absolutely! As long as we can find an exit, you see, there must be other exits from so many holes. ”

Xia Yuan glanced at the deep mine in front of her, the black hole was as deep as a devouring monster, so frightened that she shrunk her neck, didn't dare to look at it anymore, picked up an unfinished piece of compressed food and said to the snow leopard Xiaobai who was lying at her feet: "Xiaobai, eat it......"

Xiaobai glanced at the compressed food in Xia Kite's hand, whimpered and turned his head away, obviously not interested in these "vegetarian foods".

"What a picky eater!" Xia Yuan retracted her hand in embarrassment.

"Little kite, little white is a carnivore. If we have to stay in the mine for a long time, for Xiaobai's food, we can only take out the brain core of this little zombie and give the corpse to Xiaobai as food......" Zheng Zha glanced at Mo Lin and pointed to the little zombie on the ground.

"Such a small zombie has also formed a brain nucleus?" I looked at the little zombie next to me suspiciously, because there was no hypnotic injection, the little zombie had already woken up, and looked at us fiercely with a pair of gray-white eyes, because its hands and feet were bound by special hard ropes, so it didn't move, just lay quietly on the ground.

I was amazed to see its gray-white eyes, it is said that the current zombies can only evolve after they reach adulthood, because at that time, their bodies will grow, and their physiology will be further improved. Looking at the little zombie in front of him, it was obviously the size of a teenager, but it already had signs of evolution to a second-level zombie.

"What do you see? If you look at it again, let Xiaobai eat you......" Xia Yuan saw the little zombie's eyes that wanted to devour, and kicked it angrily, as if he could understand Xia Kite's words, the little zombie glanced at Xiaobai in fear and closed his eyes.

"Very smart zombie......" Seeing the performance of the little zombie, I was secretly frightened in my heart, if this grows up, this zombie has a high possibility of evolving into a high-level zombie, and this possibility is very high.

"Alas! Actually, zombies are also a life......" Maureen looked at the little zombie with a complicated expression, and was a little hesitant about her own words just now: "Studying the brain core of the GHK can only let me know its DNA talent and the mutation of the X virus in its body...... Perhaps, keeping it alive might be more valuable for experimentation. Xiaobai, as an experimental object of me and Fang Xing, has been changing the DNA order of Fang Xing since he was a young beast, and now Xiaobai's physical signs have gradually returned to their ancestors? Hearing Maureen's words, the little zombie opened his eyes suddenly, and the doubts in his eyes flashed away.

"Dad? I miss him so much...... "Xia Kite's father is called Xia Fangxing, and when he heard his mother talk about the past, Xia Kite's pure black eyes were immediately covered with a layer of mist.

"Alas! Mom misses him too, I don't know if you're still alive......" Maureen muttered to herself, her eyes looking into the distance with empty eyes, and her longing was overflowing.

"Brother Fang Xing must still be alive! Certain! Hearing the mother and daughter's question and answer, Zheng Zhe lowered his head and said in a deep voice. The light of the fire shone on his face, and his eyes were exceptionally bright, and I glimpsed a glimpse of a flash of sharpness in his eyes, as if by illusion.

"I hope so......" Mo Lin muttered, raised her head, and looked at Zheng Zha with a grateful face: "Zheng Zha, if you hadn't saved me desperately that day, the little kite wouldn't even have a mother, and in the past few years, this child has suffered a ......" said lovingly stroking Xia Kite's long hair.

"This is what I should do, I almost died after my evolution failed, it was Brother Fang Xing's injection that saved me, and restored my strength to the same ......" Zheng Zha looked ashamed: "I didn't protect Brother Fang Xing, I have always been haunted!" ”

Hearing this, I couldn't help but cry out in amazement: "What? Is there any salvation after the failure of evolution? ”

"Usually!" Zheng Zhe glanced at me, this guy has always been very repulsive to me for some reason, and said coldly: "In this world, only Brother Fang Xing and Lin'er have a way to let the evolution warriors who failed to evolve live and regain their strength, not only me, but also Hou Mingzhao and Yu Sikun, we were all saved by them after the failure of evolution for various reasons." No one else can do it but them! ”

"Zheng Zha!" Mo Lin's face flushed a little rosy, and she said unhappily: "If you don't call me sister-in-law, you can't call me by my name directly......"

Seeing Mo Lin's embarrassed and annoyed look, Zheng Zha's eyes were stunned for a moment, and he lowered his head in agreement.

Hearing Zheng Zha's words, my heart turned a monstrous wave, and I admired Mo Lin and her husband Xia Fangxing in my heart, the failure of the evolution of the evolution warrior is not accidental, almost every evolution warrior who is thirsty for more strength will choose to improve his strength, and promotion is a double-edged sword, success is to, failure is to face death or mutation. If there were Maureen's methods, evolutionary failure would no longer be a terrible nightmare.

I think of Brother Wen Zhengbiao, he is a fifth-level evolution warrior of red armor, after the failure of evolution, he luckily did not die, and his fifth-level strength has also degenerated to second-level, if he is handed over to Mo Lin, she must have a way to restore Wen Zhengbiao's former fifth-level red armor strength. Thinking of this, my heart was gloomy, Wen Zhengbiao was abducted by the man in black and didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and I couldn't help but worry about him.

"Ah, Xiaobai? Where are you going? The exclamation of the summer kite disrupted my thoughts, and following the sound, the snow leopard Xiaobai's figure flew forward rapidly, and soon the figure disappeared into the dark passage.

"What's going on?" Everyone stood up in confusion, and Xiaobai's sudden run away made us suspicious, but soon, Xiaobai's body full of markings returned to my sight again.

"It's back!" Seeing Xiaobai's strange performance, everyone gathered around, only to see Xiaobai whimper, spit out the corpse of a huge mouse from his mouth, looked at us with smug eyes and roared, it turned out that this guy went to capture prey.

I carefully observed the huge mouse corpse on the ground, I had never seen such a large mouse, with a body the size of an adult rabbit, obviously a mutated creature, only the mutant infected with the X virus had such a huge size, the strong limbs drooped on the ground, the gray fur sparsely attached to the skin, the rodents in front of the mouth had mutated and sharpened, and under the reflection of the fire, it emitted a seeping light.

After Xiaobai proudly showed us off, he bit the corpse of the mourning rat in his mouth, and chewed this rare delicacy with a "squeak".
