Chapter 3: Nightmares
Looking at Chen Mo, who looked like he hadn't eaten or drunk for a month, the two brothers couldn't help but laugh a few times, and then the two of them also moved a stool to sit around the small round table and picked up steamed buns and began to eat.
"Brother Chen, I said, who are you, how did you travel to our poor place, and you still came alone."
Listening to Erzhuang's question, who was chewing food and looking puzzled, Chen Mo's face eased slightly, swallowed the steamed bun and said, "I'm here to experience life." ”
Listening to this slightly unpleasant tone, Er Zhuang secretly glanced at his brother who was sitting on the side and stared at him, rolled his eyes, lowered his head and continued to eat.
As the three of them finished eating, the sun had already set, which made the temperature in the house drop a few points.
"Brother Chen, there are all cannibalistic zombies outside, we went to the town today to find some villagers who are still alive, I estimate that you can't go home at the moment, let's come back and pack up our things and go to the town tomorrow to meet the villagers, you and we go together?" After all, there is a lot of power in numbers. ”
Looking at the solemn face of Zhuangzi in front of him, Chen Mo frowned, his tone trembled slightly, and his voice was hoarse towards Zhuangzi: "Thank you two today, Brother Zhuangzi, I want to ask how far our town is from W City." ”
"W City?" Erzhuang opened his mouth suspiciously.
Seeing Zhuangzi's elbow on the top of Erzhuang, he immediately said with a contemplative expression: "Let's go out to the highway in XC Town, and it will take about three weeks to travel under the stars." ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw Chen Mo's eyes messy, his body couldn't stop trembling, his teeth were bitten together and made a piercing 'gurgling' sound, the nails of his hands were deeply embedded in his palms, and the blood flowing out fell to the ground 'tick, tick' along his hands.
"He must have someone he wants to protect." As Zhuangzi said to himself in his heart, he got up and patted Chen Mo's shoulder, and looked back at Erzhuang, who was full of doubts.
Night.
Chen Mo, who was already exhausted, lay in the small room arranged by Zhuangzi, and Chen Mo, whose body was already loaded, listened to the howls of zombies from time to time and the sound of banging on the door, and fell asleep.
In the dream, when he was a child, Chen Mo was surrounded by a circle of children of the same age in the corner, looking at the kick that was kicking towards him, and a resolute and thin figure blocked in front of him.
"Ahmad, when you grow up in the future, will you protect your sister?" Looking at the delicate girl in front of him, Xiao Chen Mo's eyes were resolute and just about to agree, when he saw a hideous-looking zombie suddenly appear behind the girl and pounce on the girl.
"Don't!"
With a loud shout, Chen Mo suddenly got up from the bed, sweat crawled all over Chen Mo's back, and the sweat droplets on his forehead also dripped down his nose and onto the quilt.
"Awake? We just got up, so let's finish our meal and leave. Erzhuang's voice came from his ears, and the sky was already bright outside.
Chen Mo, who walked to the front hall with his head up, looked at the steamed buns that were steaming on the table, and the two brothers who were eating at the table, exchanged two words, picked up two steamed buns to satisfy his hunger, and then drank a can of warm water, and Chen Mo, whose body gradually returned to normal, secretly clenched his fists.
After breakfast, the three of them finished talking and prepared to leave, and the two brothers carried a little flour and millet on their backs.
Chen Mo, who was in charge of opening the way, looked at the five or six zombies outside the door, and suddenly kicked the door open, and the zombies flew out upside down, and the two brothers seized the opportunity and rushed out directly, heading towards the destination.
Chen Mo ran in front of the two, after all, in Chen Mo's eyes, the scattered zombies were not a threat to him at all, as the dagger fell again, another zombie fell on the side of the road, but Chen Mo's eyes were full of contemplation, as if he was planning something.
With the sound of eager running, the two brothers also followed, and as soon as they arrived, they saw Zhuangzi's face as usual, and he pointed forward with his hand and said very quickly: "Brother Chen, the grain and oil store in front is the camp." ”
Looking at the strong son Chen Mo, who had been running with him for so long, and still had no tiredness, no red face, and no breath, he was a little surprised, but his eyes followed the direction of the strong man's finger, but Chen Mo was staring.
"Brother, this, this, why are there all zombies at this door, what should we do?" As Er Zhuang's face turned sallow and he asked, Chen Mo and Zhuangzi looked at each other at the same time.
"I'm going to lure away the zombies at the door, you take the opportunity to go in, and then I'll come back to join you." Chen Mo took the lead in speaking to the two brothers with a normal complexion.
"This."
Before the two brothers could speak, Chen Mo had already run to the door of the grain and oil store, and the surrounding trees that had withered and yellowed became a natural cover for the two brothers.
Chen Mo, who carefully observed the terrain of the village, kept remembering the geographical environment he had run through, and after a while, Chen Mo had already run more than 300 meters away with the zombies.
As the surrounding scenery quickly retreated, Chen Mo turned his head to look at the zombie group on the street, carefully looking at the zombies chasing after him.
Chen Mo found that some zombies walked forward at the same speed as normal humans, while some zombies could run, and the speed was also very considerable, vaguely faster than that of normal adults.
When Chen Mo looked at the zombies behind him, he didn't notice that in the bushes about twenty meters on his side, the two pure white eyes that couldn't see eyeballs in their sockets were staring at him.
