Chapter 7: The Second Day of the Tribulation
"Are you all asleep?" Ye Yao suddenly spoke, breaking the atmosphere that had been silent for a long time.
"No, it's so noisy outside, how can you sleep." Ma Rui lay on his side, staring blankly in the direction of the window.
"That's right, I'm already very tired, but I still can't sleep, it's really uncomfortable." Ye Yao said.
"You're overly sad, and your brain is in a state of collapse. Let's open it a little. Ma Rui took a deep breath and turned his body upright, but this time the skin of his right arm fit on Ye Yao's left arm, but the other party did not have the slightest intention of dodging.
"If I'm overly sad, what about you?"
"As soon as I heard it, I knew he was talking nonsense." Su Yi said seriously.
"I'm wondering how long we'll live." Ma Rui put his left hand on his chest and felt his heartbeat: "To be honest, I belong to a more optimistic kind of person, not general optimism but blind optimism, so that I do everything according to my own temperament, as if it doesn't matter if I go to class or not, I always feel that it is still early to graduate or something, or that finding a job after graduation will be as smooth sailing as going to school, and I have never considered the problem of livelihood." Not to mention life. ”
"Even if I received the rent payment this morning, even though I didn't find a job, I think my parents can help me pay the fee." Ma Rui paused, sighed and continued: "But now it's different, even my life is in the palm of my hand." For a moment, I felt an unprecedented pressure. I couldn't breathe. I used to think only about the best, but now I can only think about the worst. ”
"Is it just a little bit of pressure that makes you breathless? If you become like me, won't you just be unable to breathe? Su Yi snorted coldly, her strong tone couldn't hide the tears flowing from the corners of her eyes, and her mind was full of her parents' faces for a while. But she didn't let out any crying, but silently wiped away her tears with the back of her hand.
"You're really much better than me." Marry closed his eyes, as if he didn't want to say something.
But his unintentionally moved arm deepened the touch with Ye Yao. The other party still did not run away.
Marry wondered if it was the reason for her squeezing. I simply moved to the side a little consciously. Unexpectedly, he had just moved a little distance, and Ye Yao quickly followed. The two were still close to their arms.
This made Ma Rui suddenly feel a feeling of heartbeat. He suddenly became bold, grabbed Ye Yao's wrist, and clenched it tightly, like a mutual encouragement between good friends.
Ye Yao acquiesced, and even the corners of her mouth rose slightly.
Ma Rui kept holding it like this, and he didn't know how long it took, his palms had begun to sweat, and he was going to let go.
At the moment of letting go, Ye Yao spread out his palm, and the two of them clasped their fingers together.
Ma Rui smiled with satisfaction, and tightened his palm slightly, and Ye Yao tightened his palm as if in response to him.
Time passed inadvertently, and Sue's breathing began to gradually become heavy, and Ma Rui also felt his eyelids begin to disobey.
He took out his phone under the bedside, squinted his eyes and glanced at the time, it was already past 3 o'clock in the morning. Although he is also used to going to bed late on weekdays, most of the time it is only around 1 a.m. No wonder I'm so sleepy now.
Ye Yao let go of her clenched hand and adjusted her sleeping position, and lay down with her back to Ma Rui.
Because of the hot weather, the three of them didn't even cover the thin sheets, and Ma Rui could get a full view of Ye Yao's seductive figure at a glance.
After repeated observations, Ma Rui actually hugged Ye Yao from behind, but the other party slept deeply and didn't notice it at all.
Just as he was about to make the next move, a numbing pain came from his arm.
Ma Rui opened his eyes in a daze, the sky was already bright, and then he woke up, it turned out that he was dreaming just now!
He almost laughed out loud in bed, but before he could regain his taste, a tingling sensation hit his arm again.
Ma Rui looked at it with a bitter face, and his arm was actually pressed under Ye Yao's body, to be precise, he was hugging her waist. It's a pity that his arm is now completely unconscious, and even if he is excited, he can only feel the touch of being electrified.
He tried to pull his arm back, but he was so crushed that he couldn't move. Just after he struggled many times, Ye Yao began to move his body, and Ma Rui was worried about being discovered about his actions, so he immediately pretended to be asleep and closed his eyes again.
Only a gap was left between the eyelids. He watched Ye Yao turn around slowly, because of his squinting eyes, he couldn't see her face, only her moving figure.
The soft abdomen rolled between his arms, and soon Ye Yao noticed the arms around his waist. Ma Rui's heart beat rapidly. Then he heard the sound of "chirp, chirp", which sounded like some saliva stirring back and forth in his mouth.
Ma Rui pretended to be asleep and raised his head, and his nerves tensed as his vision shook.
The person in sight didn't look like yesterday's Ye Yao at all, her hair was unkempt, and she shook her head like a muscular dystrophy patient. Ma Rui frowned unconsciously, and then he saw the gray and blank eyes. For a while, his heart was raised to his throat, and the other party seemed to see him suddenly.
"Evil !!" She bit down on Marry's skull with her mouth wide open.
"Smack!"
Pain came from his pelvis, and Ma Rui suddenly woke up. When he opened his eyes, he realized that he had rolled to the ground. The two people on the bed were long gone, and they rubbed the bridge of their noses with their fingers.
It's so nervous, I've never had such a serial dream. Marry slowly crawled back into bed, and the door was pushed open.
"You're awake." Sue said as he stood in the doorway.
"Did I sleep for a long time?" Marry scratched his head, still sitting on the head of the bed and didn't move.
"Actually, we got up half an hour earlier than you." Su Yi took out his phone and glanced at the time: "It's already 11 o'clock at noon." ”
"It's still a little early, and I usually sleep until three or four o'clock in the afternoon before I get up."
"As the only male in the house, I guess you're not going to clean up the living room?" Su Yi frowned: "It is estimated that this big summer will stink in a while." ”
"This... It's really not up to me to have the final say, why do you have to ask Ye Yao, right? It's his boyfriend after all. ”
"I've already asked for you, and she nodded in agreement. Get up quickly. ”
Marry nodded in response. After a brief scrubbing, Marry stood in front of the corpse and hesitated.
If you want to deal with the corpse, you can't go out now, don't even dare to open the door, how to deal with this.
Ma Rui propped his chin in one hand, and an idea naturally came to his mind, and he looked out the window. Ye Yao, who was sitting on the sofa, seemed to have seen through his thoughts, and said in a pleading tone.
"Don't leave him behind..." Ye Yao bit her lip, as if she had already thought about it, and said, "Use the rope to slowly put him down." ”
Although it was none of his business, Ma Rui was not a person who did not understand human nature, and he took the curtain rope that was originally used to pull Suyi. A slipknot was tied in the abdomen of the corpse.
This is what he learned from previous outdoor survival documentaries, as long as the rope is in a state of tension and force, the knot of the rope will not loosen. So throughout the process, he was asking Ye Yao to pull in the rope.
When it was ready, Ma Rui dragged the body to the balcony, and then he slowly lowered the body with a rope in his hand, and the whole process of falling took only two minutes, and the body was smoothly placed downstairs on the green belt next to the building.
The corpse was wrapped in a pile of dark green bushes. Ma Rui gently tugged on the rope, and the corpse moved slightly sideways, and the rope was smoothly pulled back by him.
"I'm reluctant to use this rope that has tied the dead, but I don't have any other choice." Marry said and tugged at the rope again.
"What? You're going down? Sue stood by the glass door of the balcony and watched.
"That's right, didn't you say that there is food and knives downstairs, I think I'm going to go down sooner or later anyway, so it's better to go down now." Marry said.
He glanced down, and the height really made people a little weak. However, it can be regarded as influenced by outdoor survival documentaries, and the height in front of me is a bit small for the frightening scenes that are commonplace on the screen.
It's all trivial, no problem! His heart kept pumping himself up.
Ma Rui climbed out of the balcony wall, looked at the two women who didn't move, and said, "You'd better help me pull a little rope, I'm afraid the glass door won't be able to support my weight." ”
Ye Yao and Su Yi seemed to react suddenly, and grabbed the rope one after the other. Ma Rui nodded with satisfaction.
He climbed down the outer ceramic wall little by little, and the arm that had been over-moving yesterday began to exude a soreness and pain. Fortunately, it didn't affect his movements too much, he tensed up, quickly slid down a distance, and then jumped in with both feet on the fence of the second-floor balcony.
The interior layout of the house is basically the same as that of the upper floors, except that it is a little larger, there is an extra room, and there is a kitchen that can be seen at a glance. Marley walked briskly around the oval dining table and headed straight for the refrigerator.
He opened the refrigerator door, and the gray cold air wafted from the inside out, followed by a strong fishy smell, except for some uncooked seafood, only two cans of beer.
Disappointed, Ma Rui closed the refrigerator door.
Looking at the floor around the kitchen, there are four or five boxes of drinks, which are estimated to be delivered by people, and they should prefer to drink, except for the red wine that was drunk only two bottles, the rest of the drinks are all unopened, and a box of instant noodles has never been touched.
Ma Rui gathered all the materials on the balcony, and by the way, he also took the Tang knife that Su Yi said, returned to the balcony, and tied the boxes of materials to the rope and transported them up.
During this period, Ma Rui also took a closer look at the Tang knife, the knife was not as delicate as imagined, the slender blade, the black and white grip, always made people unconsciously think of the katana.
However, for Ma Rui, who doesn't know anything about knives, when judging from the appearance, he really can't tell what kind of knife it is.
After about ten minutes, Ma Rui tied the last two bottles of loose red wine to the rope.
At this moment, the rapid honking of the car suddenly resounded throughout the city, and Marry craned his neck to find the source of the sound.
A bus appeared at the end of his vision, and then he watched it staggering left and right on the road and crashing into zombies along the way, and the continuous honking of the horn finally became a prolonged sound. After a 180-degree turnaround, the bus crashed headlong into the bottom of the building where Ma Rui was located.
