Chapter 1: Maybe you're like me
The hot air was filled with the smell of corruption, withered yellow leaves fluttered in the air, and a man wearing an off-white trench coat and a huge straw hat walked on the dark red asphalt road with a weapon that looked like a sword but not a sword, a knife but not a knife.
"Hiss!" Voices echoed in the air from far and near, and the man walking on the asphalt paused for two seconds, then turned to look at the weeds that were more than two meters on the asphalt side behind him.
"Babble!" The sound came from the grass, and several zombies with loose hair and dark black rags, their flesh tumbling out, suddenly burst out of the weeds.
"Humph!" A cold snort of disdain spat out of that person's mouth, and I don't know if that person was too conceited and didn't take these zombies in his eyes, or if he was already stupid by complete zombies, right? He just stood there and didn't move.
Without waiting for anyone to think about it, the zombie standing opposite the person had already rushed in front of him!
When it was too late, the silver sword body flashed in the sunlight, and the zombies that attacked this person all stopped in a burst of sword dance.
"Click!" A faint voice came from the zombie, and the zombie that attacked the person was in a burst of "Click! The voice turned into a pile of rotten flesh, sliding down the skeleton from the air.
The dark purple liquid flowed all over the ground, and the man's blade glowed with a silvery cold.
A hand reached out from the off-white trench coat, and the man wiped the liquid on the ground with his index finger and looked at it in the sun.
"Xiao Yun, Xiao Yun!"
"Help me! Xiao Yun. Without waiting for the man to take a closer look, a frightened cry for help came from an abandoned house not far away, and the man glanced at the severed limb on the ground and ran towards the house from which the cry for help came.
A ragged and bloody zombie rushed towards the surviving man, and seeing that the man was about to be attacked by the zombie, a woman with long hair suddenly crawled out of the furniture behind the zombie.
"No!" Seeing that the zombie was about to bite the man, the woman didn't know where she got the courage to hug the zombie!
The expected pain did not come, and the man slowly lowered the hand blocking his head, carefully looking at the zombie that was waving his teeth and claws.
"Both!" The woman's frightened voice rang out, and the man pressed the hammer of the pistol as if he had just woken up from a dream.
"Bang!" A deafening sound rang out, and the dark red liquid exploded in all directions, and an indescribable stench wafted through the air with a negligible fishy smell.
"Ahh Feeling that the zombie she was holding was not moving, the woman pushed the zombie in her arms out with a frightened face.
"It's okay, it's okay." The woman's frightened face met the man's frightened eyes, and she tried to pull a smile on her face and said, "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, we'll all be fine." ”
But! The man still stared at the woman with a look of horror.
The tingling pain in her left hand came, and the woman followed her boyfriend's gaze and landed on the black coat ,—— her left wrist, and the dark purple liquid slowly oozed out, and the expression on the woman's face gradually froze.
"How so, how so?" The woman took a sharp sip, took off her coat, and looked at her fleshy wrist with a broken face.
I don't know how long it took, the woman slowly calmed down her excited heart, and looked at her boyfriend opposite her with a pleading face, "It's okay, I'm fine." ”
"I can cut off my hand, I'll be fine."
"It's okay, I'm fine."
"Trust me, it's okay." The warm tears ran down the corners of the woman's eyes on the hand that was being pulled, but not only did she not feel a trace of heartache, but she felt a burst of cold air coming to her.
"Don't, I don't!" Du Ke shook his head, shook off the woman's hand, and staggered away, leaving the woman alone to kneel in the pile of zombies.
"Whew!" The woman took a deep breath, tears sliding down the corners of her eyes like a flood that burst a levy.
"Everything, everything!" The woman's mournful voice rippled through the air, but no one answered.
The dazzling sunlight hit his face with some pain, Xiao Yun moved his hand, slowly opened his eyes, looked at the dark red sky and said, "I'm still alive?" ”
"What do you think?" A hoarse voice came from the side, and Xiao Yun sat up from the ground and saw a man with shoulder-length short hair and unknown food in his hand.
"Why did you save me?"
"What's your name?"
"Your boyfriend is the one who escaped?" The man did not answer Xiao Yun's doubts, but glanced at Xiao Yun and asked two questions one after another.
"My name is Xiao Yun, and the one who escaped is called Du Ke." After speaking, Xiao Yun continued to add: "It used to be, but now it's not. ”
"I've already answered you, should you answer my question too?" Even her boyfriend gave up on her.
Why would this person risk his life to save a stranger who is about to become a zombie?
"Why did you save me?" Seeing that the other party was about to leave, Xiao Yun immediately stood up from the ground and looked, and the other party's back asked.
"Is this important?" The other party's footsteps stopped, and he turned to look at Xiao Yun.
"I'm going to be a zombie soon, it makes no difference whether you save me or not." From the beginning of the collapse, to the final abandonment, and then to the current calm, Xiao Yun suddenly felt as if life and death were nothing more than that.
"Huh!" A mocking voice came from the man's mouth, "To save, to save, to save, that's my freedom." ”
"However, if you insist on giving a reason, it is not impossible." The deep eyes looked at herself, Xiao Yun's hair was numb, and she had the illusion that all her secrets were seen through by the other party!
Finally, when she couldn't control herself and wanted to escape from the other party's sight, the other party retracted.
"Maybe! It's that I feel like you're like me. A faint voice echoed in his ears, and Xiao Yun immediately asked, "What do you mean?" ”
"You're not going to be a zombie." Niu Tou's answer to the horse's mouth spit out from the other party's mouth, and the doubt on Xiao Yun's face deepened, "What do you mean?" ”
"Literally." Pity! The other party didn't pay attention to Xiao Yun, dropped four words, and walked into the distance without looking back.
"Hey!" Xiao Yun looked at the back of the other party leaving and wanted to chase after him, but remembering the other party's attitude and words, he just stayed in place.
In the summer of 2025, a purple snow suddenly falls, zombies from movies and novels suddenly appear, and the end times - sweeping the world.
No one knows why the end times came, and no one knows what they came about.
Humanity only knows that the apocalypse in movies and novels has come true – humanity has to face not only terrifying zombies and mutated animals and plants, but also greedy humanity and dwindling resources for the deterioration of the environment.
All people who are injured by zombies will become zombies, so what does the other party's sentence, "You won't become a zombie", mean? The other party's figure gradually drifted away, but Xiao Yun was puzzled by the other party's words.
Soon, though! She'll understand.
