It wasn't until he could already see the campfire and busy figures not far away that Li Ling cautiously slowed down, trying not to kick the stones or break the branches.

To his surprise, the figure in front of him was not Naiyin, nor was it Qin Xiaoyu. It's the figure of a man. Since it was night and with his back to him, Li Ling couldn't see the person's face clearly.

But he expected that the man had two identities, either he was a forerunner on a journey, or a supporter who had left the army.

Either way, Li Ling, who had been alone for nearly four months, was inexplicably excited, and walked straight towards the figure.

Now Li Ling doesn't need to be overly careful, he believes that no one can hurt him easily.

When the distance was less than fifty steps, Li Ling saw the man constantly poking in the fire with a stick, trying to make the bonfire burn more vigorously. He kept muttering, and Li Ling could already hear what he was saying.

"Oh, my mother, why is it so cold tonight? Why is it so quiet?! Ma Xiyu muttered while wiping her nose with trembling hands, completely unaware of the movement behind her.

Seeing the familiar figure in front of him and the aggrieved nagging, Li Ling couldn't help grinning.

He was about to surprise Ma Xiyu, so he walked over lightly and stretched out his hands to bake the fire.

……

The white hands that suddenly appeared made Ma Xiyu's heart bloom, and she thought that Haruko was reluctant to go, so she came to accompany her.

In order to behave more steadily, Ma Xiyu did not rush up to the scene, but pretended to be cold and said: "You go to rest, don't come to accompany me!" I am a soldier, I know what to do and what not to do, since you haven't thought about it yet......" Before the words were finished, Ma Xiyu's eyes shrank suddenly, staring at the white but thick hands tightly.

Li Ling looked at Ma Xiyu strangely, thinking to himself who Ma Xiyu was talking to? It's obviously only one person here, isn't it...... I have already been discovered by Ma Xiyu?

Just thinking about it, Ma Xiyu suddenly picked up the sharp wood on the ground and poked at Li Ling.

The sudden change startled Li Ling, and he subconsciously reached out and grabbed it. The sharp wood pierced through the clothes on his shoulders, but he held it firmly in his hands.

"What people?! Sneaky! Under the reflection of the bonfire, Ma Xiyu's eyes widened angrily and shouted loudly.

While speaking, Ma Xiyu exerted force with both hands, wanting to insert the sharp wood into Li Ling's body.

Li Ling grinned, and with a hard push of both hands, he pushed Jianmu away from his body.

Ma Xiyu felt a strong force coming from the sharp wood, and she couldn't retreat under her feet, grabbing the sharp wood and falling backwards to the ground.

After all, he can be regarded as a member of the guards, and Ma Xiyu is not weak, so he rolled on the spot, and immediately half-squatted and took a defensive posture. At the same moment, the mind was racing: "What is this?" Pale skin, unbelievable strength, haunted in the dark wilderness......"

"Zombies!" Ma Xiyu exclaimed loudly.

"Uh...... I wanted to surprise this guy a little, but it turned into a fright! Li Ling was a little speechless, looked down at his hands, and was indeed too white.

couldn't wait to explain, Ma Xiyu looked left and right, and shouted in the direction where Haruko was resting: "Zombies, there are zombies!" Haruko, watch out for zombies in the dark! ”

"Looks like there are other companions around." Li Ling knew that if he didn't open his mouth to explain, it would only lead to a greater misunderstanding, so he hurriedly said, "Ma Xiyu, can you calm down?" Take a good look at who I am?! ”

Ma Xiyu was jumping and screaming somewhere, and only then did she stop when she heard a familiar voice. By the light of the fire, Tsai carefully looked at it.

"You...... Are you Li Ling - Adjutant Li?! ”

"Who else but me?!" Li Ling spread his hands and grinned. So that Ma Xiyu can see that he doesn't have fangs like zombies.

Ma Xiyu's expression changed from panic to surprise, and after his mouth squirmed a few times, he gave a military salute suddenly: "I've seen the adjutant!" I...... We...... It's so hard to find you! ”

For a while, he thought of the catastrophe suffered by his companions, the hardships he endured on the journey for more than half a month, and the grievances after being ruthlessly rejected by Haruko, Ma Xiyu, a big man, actually had red eyes and forced out two tears.

Seeing that he could wronged a strong guy like this, Li Ling knew that there must be some big trouble. He patted Ma Xiyu's shoulder comfortingly, walked to the bonfire in a few strides and said, "Come on, tell me why you are here." ”

"Hmmm! It's good if you come back, and I know you're going to show up. Ma Xiyu nodded vigorously and continued: "Actually, Haruko and I came out to look for you nearly a month ago......

There was a sound of footsteps, and Haruko stepped out of the bushes.

"Li Ling!" Haruko quickly recognized him.

"Haruko!" Li Ling stood up and smiled at her. He was glad to see two companions at once, one of whom was the girl who had taken good care of him.

"You...... What's wrong with you? Haruko looked Li Ling's body up and down in surprise, not knowing whether she was excited or afraid, her chest continued to rise and fall.

"It's a long story, Haruko!" Li Ling explained. "It's been tortured, but it's worth it. I'm still Li Ling, just like before, I'm not a zombie! Li Ling smiled at Ma Xiyu as he spoke.

Ma Xiyu lowered her head in embarrassment.

"Hmm!" Haruko nodded, didn't hesitate any longer, jumped and flew over from the grass, and swooped into Li Ling's arms like a bird.

Li Ling opened his hands a little bewildered. He saw Ma Xiyu staring straight at him and Haruko, and his smile completely froze.

But Haruko's body trembled, hugged him tightly, and muttered: "Great, you're finally back, finally back......" didn't care at all about Ma Xiyu, who was staring at him with wide eyes.

Haruko's heart was distracted, which made Li Ling a little ashamed. I thought that this little girl was simply happy for herself.

Thinking of this, Li Ling also stretched out his hands frankly and gave Haruko a firm and powerful hug.

Only then did Haruko realize that something was wrong, pushed Li Ling's hands away, and said, "You...... What were you two talking about? ”

"Speaking of which, you came out to me early, and then you showed up." Li Ling hurriedly replied, then turned his head to Ma Xiyu and said, "Yes, Xiyu?!" ”

"Ah...... Oh! Ma Xiyu nodded dejectedly.

"Then go ahead!" Li Ling said. "After being out for so long, I can't wait to know how everyone is doing."

"It's bad, worse than you can imagine!" Speaking of business, Ma Xiyu temporarily forgot the unhappiness in her heart.

Li Ling looked at Haruko, who nodded at him uneasily.

Ma Xiyu continued: "When you first left, our base was developing very smoothly, and we also gave it a name with a good meaning - Longshou Town. But who would have thought that a few dozen miles away from our base, those sinister and cunning beasts were waiting for an opportunity to pay our ......"

Li Ling quickly had a guess that it must be those despicable beasts that called themselves Batman, and perhaps the beasts led by Nayin and Keith who called themselves Bussen. He and Qin Xiaoyu fell for their tricks.

Thinking of Qin Xiaoyu, Li Ling was inexplicably a little irritable, waved his hand and said, "Let's make a long story short, Ma Xiyu." My time is precious, but I'm not here to listen to you! ”

choked to death in half a sentence, and Ma Xiyu's face turned red all of a sudden.

"It's those batmen!" Haruko took over Ma Xiyu's words. "The batakins that have attacked us are haunting our newly built village like ghosts. We've had nearly a hundred of our companions dead......"

"What?!" As if struck by lightning, Li Ling stood up suddenly, and his voice became hoarse: "How many do you say, nearly a hundred?!" ”

"Hmm!" Haruko nodded, as if she had expected Li Ling to react so violently. But she didn't finish yet, and continued: "This was still the situation twenty days ago, when we left, the companions were still dying one after another, and now ......" shook her head slightly, Haruko didn't even dare to think about it anymore.

Li Ling only felt that his head was buzzing, and it took a while to calm down, and he said in a deep voice: "So...... Did Gzin tell you to come to me? As the deputy commander, not only did I not stay with you, but I had you to look around. ”

"Don't think so, Adjutant! It's not your fault. Perhaps, all this is providence? Ma Xiyu planned to comfort his boss, after all, he had sacrificed his life to save himself. But he knew what a clumsy excuse "providence" was.

"No, I'm coming to you! I just informed Lord Gejin before I left. Unexpectedly, Haruko stood up and said.

Li Ling raised her head in surprise and looked at the girl who used to blush as soon as she spoke, and was called a priest by herself. Now, she is looking at herself with the eyes of her elders encouraging the little ones.

"I believe you can save everyone, Li Ling! Don't ask why. Haruko walked over and placed her palm on Li Ling's shoulder. Also, Gejin asked me to tell you that if you don't hurry back, by the time you find some bullshit answer, your companions will be white bones and shit! ”

"But now so many days have passed, the devil knows......" Ma Xiyu muttered a little embarrassed.

But this was exactly what Li Ling was thinking, and just as he was about to nod, he saw Qingzi glaring at Ma Xiyu fiercely.

Li Ling's neck froze there, allowing Haruko to attach to his ear, and said in a soft and cold voice: "He also said a word, if you really find out any conspiracy, it doesn't matter if it's those precursors, or this beast." Remember to come back and tell him, to tell your brothers. Whenever and wherever you ......"
