Chapter 22: Miyue's News
Hmm......" Zhou Zimo woke up from the darkness, followed by a severe headache, he subconsciously raised his hand to rub his temples, but what he started was rough gauze.
"I'm ...... What's wrong? He hadn't remembered anything else that had happened for a while, and it was as if there was a giant beast rushing left and right in his mind, which made him really unable to think about anything else.
The place he was in was also very special, although it was a complete room, it was a ruined building in ruins.
The surrounding walls were covered with black spots, the skin of the wall had long since peeled off, revealing a cement surface full of cracks, and the only thing that was still intact was the big bed where Zhou Zimo was lying and the wooden table next to it.
But this bed is also very simple, only a pink plaid sheet is spread on the bed board, and there is not even a quilt. Zhou Zimo just lay on the bed, frowning and relieving his headache with his hands.
The door on the other side suddenly opened, and the girl walked in, holding a bowl of porridge made of dry food in her hand, and saw Zhou Zimo who woke up at a glance, and immediately said excitedly: "You are awake!" ”
The unfamiliar voice attracted Zhou Zimo's attention, and he turned his head to see a girl walking briskly towards him, the girl's eyebrows were clear, her jade-like face was full of chuckles, her long black hair was scattered behind her head and jumped up and down with her movements, she was wearing a white T-shirt, a dog head printed on her stomach, and jeans on her lower body.
The clean and eye-catching clothes contrasted sharply with the dilapidated room, and she was not at all like a girl in the ruins of the end times, but like an angel.
Zhou Zimo's eyes lit up, the most beautiful girl he had ever seen before was Chen Xiaojie, but compared to her, Chen Xiaojie was slightly inferior.
Thinking of Chen Xiaojie, Zhou Zimo's world that had just brightened up was gray again, and he always felt in his heart that Chen Xiaojie might have been killed, after all, when he woke up, Hongfeng was already empty, and there were so many corpses in the underground living area full of corpses, maybe Chen Xiaojie was among them......
It's just that he didn't dare to look for them one by one, because he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to accept it, so he would guard that ethereal hope and frantically look for the so-called first and second underground living areas.
At this point, Zhou Zimo suddenly remembered the purpose of his coming here and remembered everything that happened before, so wasn't the girl in front of him the one he rescued before?
He widened his eyes and raised his hand to the girl and asked, "You, ...... you"
The girl was still full of surprise, but when she ran to Zhou Zimo, she found that he was staring at herself, and she couldn't understand the expression on the boy's face that was happy and sad for a while. After a while, he asked the first sentence of dialogue between them, his voice was a little hoarse, and the girl replied softly: "My name is Mu Xuefei, thank you for the previous incident!" How are you feeling right now, is there anything uncomfortable? ”
Zhou Zimo blinked twice, stared at the girl and muttered, "Mu Xuefei, it's pretty good...... Oh, I'm fine, it's fine......" he said and shook his head twice, and the headache that he had just forgotten swept up again, Zhou Zimo suddenly snorted in pain, and his hand returned to his head.
Mu Xuefei was startled when she saw this, thinking that something had happened to him again, so she hurriedly put the porridge in her hand on the table and sat on the edge of the bed and asked worriedly, "What's wrong with you?!" She wanted to help Zhou Zimo, but she couldn't do it.
The boy closed his eyes tightly and his expression was distorted, and he held his head tightly for a while before slowly relaxing. He reopened his eyes and saw Mu Xuefei in front of him, who had a concerned face, barely showed a smile that was more ugly than crying and said, "No, it's okay, it may be the sequelae...... Those zombies are too ruthless! ”
Mu Xuefei finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that he could still joke, a smile appeared on his face, and he quipped: "You are so funny, zombies are not human, they must be killed." ”
Zhou Zimo was stunned and realized his speech problem, smiled awkwardly, and echoed: "That's the same." ”
"Where are we? How did you escape, weren't there still a few zombies that didn't die before? ”
Mu Xuefei stood up, recalling the previous scene and still having some palpitations, a pale appeared on her face, and she was silent for a while before slowly explaining: "This is the transit point that we used to set up in Miyue, it was an art museum in Yecheng before, they don't know what zombies have been arranged here and never come in, so we are safe for the time being." ”
After speaking, she pointed at Zhou Zimo again, "By the way, I don't know what your name is!" ”
The boy replied: "My name is Zhou Zimo, and I am a resident of Red Maple, did you just say that you are from Miyue?" Where the hell is your safe zone, and why can't I find it in the catalog? ”
When Mu Xuefei heard this, a trace of sadness suddenly flashed in her eyes, and she sighed lightly and said, "Miyue...... It doesn't exist anymore! ”
Zhou Zimo was struck by lightning in an instant, and he couldn't even care about the discomfort caused by the headache, struggling to sit up, Mu Xuefei hurriedly stepped forward to help. He sat up straight on the bed, gasped for breath, and asked in shock, "What did you just say?" Doesn't exist anymore? What does it mean to not exist?! ”
Mu Xuefei looked at the panic and disbelief in his eyes, wasn't she so confused before? In the past, she thought that the impregnable Miyue was the safest place in the world, but she didn't expect that she couldn't survive even three days under the attack of the zombie tide, but what puzzled her the most was that Wan Jiahui, the chairman of Miyue, actually rebelled!
She couldn't figure out how that kind Uncle Wan had become an accomplice of the zombies? If he hadn't opened Miyue's gates, they wouldn't have been defeated so quickly.
Now that I think about it, the damage to Miyue's internal communication system at that time was also a good thing he did!
Mu Xuefei nodded sadly: "Miyue was broken half a month ago, Wan Jiahui rebelled, he put the zombies in, no more than 20% of our total nearly 100,000 residents survived, even my parents ......"
As she spoke, there was mist gathering in her eyes, and two wisps of tears fell quietly, Mu Xuefei hurriedly wiped the tears from her face, raised her head stubbornly, and said, "I swore that I would kill Uncle Wan with my own hands...... Wan Jiahui, avenge my parents! ”
Zhou Zimo looked at the stubborn girl in front of him with his mouth open, he suddenly felt some sympathy for the same disease, how similar are their experiences? The same destruction of the homeland, the same human rebellion, even the background is so close, and both parents are dead.
The boy raised his hand slightly, brushed away the little tears that remained on Mu Xuefei's face, and suddenly said firmly: "Then we have said that we must kill those rebellious dog mongrels and avenge our relatives and friends!" ”
Mu Xuefei had never been so closely touched by a strange boy, a hint of pink appeared on her face, and she quickly dodged Zhou Zimo's palm and nodded fiercely: "Hmm!" I must take revenge! She asked Zhou Zimo again, "What about you?" What are you doing here? ”
Zhou Zimo pursed her lips, looked at her with a complicated face and said word by word: "Because the red maple is gone!" ”
Mu Xuefei was stunned for a moment, the shyness on her face just froze, she would rather think that she had misheard, and trembled to confirm: "You mean, Hongfeng is also ......"
Zhou Zimo nodded bitterly, lowered his eyes and replied: "Yes, the red maple is gone, when I woke up, I found that the entire red maple had mysteriously disappeared, and only a few thousand corpses were found in that underground living area, but the cause of death could not be found at all, and the others ......"
He seemed to have opened the conversation, and confided everything to Mu Xuefei after he ran away with his partners, he really held it back for too long, if he didn't meet her this time, he might really not be able to hold on!
This talk was half an hour, and Zhou Zimo's own tears flowed I don't know how much, and his already weak body was even worse.
Mu Xuefei had already sat back beside him, listening to him silently, sharing the pain of his worries, both of them were survivors living in the world, and the relationship between them had become a lot closer.
After listening to Zhou Zimo's story, Mu Xuefei was also silent for a long time, she didn't expect Zhou Zimo's experience to be so tortuous, she just felt incredible when she heard these things, not to mention Zhou Zimo's personal experience, she suddenly had countless thoughts in her heart, there were pity, admiration, and some indescribable things.
The two of them sat silent, and after a long time they suddenly spoke at the same time.
"Do you know where the remaining survivors of Miyue are?"
"You haven't eaten yet, have you, I'll make some casually, do you want to taste it?"
The two looked at each other, but the tacit understanding of the opening made the air here suddenly become a little strange.
Mu Xuefei couldn't defeat her, and when she looked away first, some beads of sweat oozed from the tip of her nose, and her crimson face fully explained the panic in her heart.
She stood up and picked up the bowl that had been on the table for a long time, the dry food porridge had already cooled and was covered with a thin layer of skin, Mu Xuefei stirred it twice with a spoon and handed it to the boy on the bed.
Zhou Zimo was also a little uncomfortable at this time, Mu Xuefei's concern made him a little shy, and he didn't reach out to pick up the bowl of porridge at the first time, but looked at him on the left, pointed to the clean clothes on his body, and asked, "This...... Did you change my clothes for me? There are also these bandages...... "He regretted it as soon as the words came out, isn't it adding fuel to the fire to mention this now?!"
Sure enough, Mu Xuefei's face turned red after hearing this, she panicked and put the bowl on the bed in front of Zhou Zimo, and muttered, "I, I have something else." She didn't dare to look at Zhou Zimo, stretched out her hand and pointed outside, and continued: "I'll go out first, and you will call me if you have something!" After saying that, he ran out of the room and closed the door with a "bang".
Zhou Zimo opened his mouth to the door and wanted to say something but didn't say it, and after a while, he withdrew his hand and slapped himself, scolding himself, "What are you talking about!" ”
Lowering his head, the bowl of porridge was in front of him, he picked up the bowl, scooped up a spoonful of porridge, the dry food was crushed very finely, and the water added was not too much, not too much, and there was even a misery of some rice!
He hadn't eaten this thing for a long time, and it used to be made for him by Grandma Ling Ju, this is hard currency, very rare!
Zhou Zimo was a little moved, this girl is really careful. It's just that after leaving it for so long, the porridge is already cold, but he still eats it with relish, compared with the food he has eaten during this time, this bowl of porridge is already delicious in the world!
After Mu Xuefei went out, she leaned against the door and breathed rapidly, she reached out and touched her red face, remembering the question Zhou Zimo asked just now, she only felt that her heart was beating hard, and she secretly scolded Zhou Zimo for being stupid for a while, and asked herself what was wrong with her for a while.
This feeling is very novel, she has never had it before, although there is no shortage of boys around her when she was in Miyue, after all, people are beautiful, but she feels that those people are like clowns jumping off the beam, and they can't say anything to them at all.
The only one of the opposite sex who has a good relationship is only that, the boy grew up with her since he was a child, called Yu Xiaowei, and she has always regarded him as her brother...... If not for that thing!
[Preview of the next chapter: The Miyue that Zhou Zimo has been looking for for a long time has been destroyed! ] Where do they go from here? The appearance of Yu Xiaowei has brought new clues......]
