Chapter XXXVIII

"When you first met me, did you ever think there would be such a day?"

"Huh?" Li Wei didn't understand what he was referring to.

Li Ru hugged Li Wei hard, and she realized what he was referring to.

"I just wanted to slap you to death!" Having said that, Li Wei still rubbed her head against Li Ru's warmer chest.

"I remember I was holding you like that!"

Of course, Li Wei didn't forget, it didn't take long for this incident to pass, at most a few months.

"You were like a lion cub then, and now you're like a kitten."

"So what?" It doesn't matter if it's a lion cub or a kitten, she doesn't care.

"It's nothing, it's just that it feels like it's coming back to reality, and these days are like a dream." Recalling his life these days, Li Ru said with some emotion.

"Yes, you'll have to rely on yourself in the future, aren't there other military regions? Shall we go there? Li Wei empathized and suggested by the way, she was still used to waiting for him to make an idea.

"You can think about it, but let's get through this first." Li Ru thinks her suggestion is good, but everything has a priority, and now is not the time to think about it.

Feeling that the time is almost up, the temperature at night is already very low, and there are already many figures passing by them during this period, Li Ru let go of Li Wei in his arms and prepared to go.

Under the moonlight, it was silvery white, and Li Ru could only choose a general direction to move forward, holding Li Wei's hand tightly, no matter what, he would never let go, because once he was separated at this time, even if it was not a physical goodbye, it was very likely to be a physical goodbye.

Li Ru and Li Wei endured their nausea and moved forward, their feet undulating constantly, it was not that the road was uneven, but that they were stepping on the ground completely paved with monster corpses.

"Whatever happens, never bark, you know?" Li Ru turned around and finally admonished.

Li Wei nodded and grabbed Li Ru's hand again.

Many of the monsters in the siege are scattered, they will sleep at night, and they will only wake up when stimulated, and their sensitivity to movement is reduced so that Li Ru will not be attacked by a large group of monsters.

……

Li Ru carried the bleeding saber and pulled Li Wei forward in the sea of corpses, he didn't know how many monsters he had chopped to death, Li Ru had reduced the movement of slashing and killing as much as possible, all of them were fatal with one blow, but the figure that staggered up in front of him always continued, Li Ru's hand holding the knife was already a little numb and trembling, his arm was extremely sore, and his breathing began to become heavy, he didn't learn much about the skills of a soldier in his short military career at the base, but at least he could do it with the perseverance of a soldier.

Li Ru didn't know how long this hellish road was, he only knew that the right hand that was slashing must not stop, and the left hand that was clenched must not be released.

……

"Li Ru, wake up!"

Li Ru felt as if someone was shaking his arm, and slowly opened his eyes, only to realize that it was Li Wei.

"Here?" Li Ru woke up to find himself lying on a dilapidated bed, and the surroundings were unfamiliar, but it was certain that it should be in the building.

"You're scared me to death, I'm so afraid you won't wake up." Seeing that Li Ru had finally woken up, Li Wei hugged him excitedly and sobbed.

"How did we last night... What happened? Li Ru began to recall, but his memory seemed to be somewhat interrupted, and he had no impression of how he finally ran out last night.

"You kept slashing like crazy that day, and when we finally got out of danger, you passed out." Li Wei explained.

"That day?" Li Ru noticed some strange words in her words.

"You've been asleep for two days, if you're hungry or not, I'll get you some food." Of course, Li Wei knew what he asked and what he was surprised about, but none of this mattered, the important thing was that he was healthy.

"I've been sleeping for two days?" Li Ru felt that his stomach was indeed very hungry, but he was still more concerned about the answer to the question just now.

"yes, I'll carry you"

"You carry me?" Li Ru was a little unbelievable, he was tall and big, and Li Wei carried himself on his back? He didn't believe it, but Li Wei couldn't lie to himself about it, and before he could figure it out, the sensation in his whole body had already begun to recover.

"It hurts!" Li Ru felt all kinds of tingling and soreness all over his body, especially in his back and waist, where is this symptom of exhaustion, and the bones in his whole body feel like they are going to fall apart, what did he experience to be like this.

"Be careful, don't tear the wound open."

"Wounds? I was bitten by a monster? Li Ru was shocked and began to speculate.

"No, you weren't hurt, but then you passed out, and I was injured when I carried you." Li Wei explained with some distress.

"You got hurt while carrying me?" Li Ru didn't care about these scars, but was very curious about how he got the injuries out of his back.

"You're so heavy, I can't carry it anymore after I've carried it for a while, I... I'll just drag you away. ”

The outdoor floor is no better than the floor tiles at home, and Li Ru finally understands how the terrible pain of his whole body came from.

Seeing Li Wei's tearful self-blame on the side, Li Ru reached out and pinched her little hand and said: Thank you for your hard work! Even if it wasn't for her back, it was not easy for her to drag him, a man of nearly two hundred pounds, and how hard she worked during this period was probably only known to herself, Li Ru was a little distressed.

"It's good if you're awake."

"Where is this? Is it safe? Li Ru looked around and asked.

"Don't worry, I've checked, it's safe, it's safe around here."

"And how did you survive these few days?"

"That's a long story..."

Li Wei began to tell about the past two days.

It turned out that after Li Ru fainted, Li Wei carried him on his back for a while, because he had no sense of direction, he could only walk blindly, Li Ru was still too heavy for her, and in the end there was really no way, so she grabbed Li Ru's hand and dragged it, fortunately, Li Ru wore a combat uniform, otherwise it would not be possible to open the flesh. It's strange to say, Li Wei didn't meet a monster along the way, and even when she finally arrived in this town, she didn't see a shadow of a monster, as if they had evaporated from the world, if she hadn't experienced the monster siege, she might really believe that the monster had disappeared.

Later, Li Wei placed Li Ru in this spacious and transparent bedroom, taking care of him every day, waiting for him to wake up.

"No monsters around?"

"yes, I can't see it anywhere in the neighborhood."

This situation is not incomprehensible, the number of monsters attacking the base is huge, and the corpse tide gathered for unknown reasons is likely to be the monsters in this vicinity, Li Ru guessed that no matter what the reason for the corpse tide gathered, there should be a limit, and the total amount that can be maintained should be limited, and a lot of monsters should be killed when the base is defended, and most of the monsters in this vicinity are attracted by the unknown reason to make a supplement, but these are just Li Ru's guesses, just think about it, he didn't plan to tell Li Wei.

It's okay anyway, now he just wants to get better quickly, go back to the old days of wandering, he has to cheer himself up, and life has to go on, right?
