Volume 1 Campus Chapter 9 Sickness
After the first floor was emptied, the two quickly walked through the cafeteria and came to the entrance of the first floor. As Chen Tao guessed, this place was not broken, but they couldn't get out either. Fortunately, there was a window next to it, Ye Yuyao looked out through it, and did not see a zombie, so he opened the window, and then turned out, Chen Tao followed closely.
Outside, the air was relatively fresh, but from time to time there was a stench of rotting corpses. Ye Yuyao observed the situation nearby, and if he wanted to reach the point of climbing the wall, he had to pass through the small garden in front of him. This small garden is located in front of the cafeteria, at the back of the teaching building, and there is a long corridor between the small garden and the teaching building, but now there are a few zombies wandering there, if you go from there, they will definitely be discovered, and maybe more zombies will be attracted. The small garden is relatively safer, at least Ye Yuyao didn't see any zombies inside, but too many vine leaves blocked her vision, so that she couldn't see inside, there would be hidden dangers, but there was no other better passage except here.
"We walked through the promenade of the small garden, which was more secluded and could hide our bodies from the zombies. "
After making up his mind, Ye Yuyao proposed. Chen Tao nodded, and the two of them quickly went into the small garden, squatted down, and moved forward as carefully as they did in the dining hall.
The small garden is not so much a garden as a grass garden, and it is basically one lawn after another, except for a few peach blossom trees. In the middle of this lawn, there is a promenade, which the school is called: the art gallery. As with all promenades, there are many vines climbing on it, and it is not known whether they are planted artificially or naturally. Vines cover almost the entire outline of the corridor, and the greenery gives the illusion that the corridor is woven from vines.
It's a great place to cool off in summer, with jagged vines and leaves forming a natural barrier that blocks the scorching sunlight outside, leaving a piece of coolness. In the past, if it was free time in physical education class, Ye Yuyao would play cards such as the Three Kingdoms with Lin Han and his roommates (although they are not friends but they are also familiar) here, or chat, and the content is nothing more than the obscene content of the beauties of a certain class and how to pick up girls. Of course, at that time, they would not have thought that Ye Yuyao, who laughed the most obscenely among them, would become the kind of beauty as they said, nor would they have thought that they would usher in the end of the zombie-infested world.
Gradually, Ye Yuyao heard a low wailing and chewing sound coming from the right front, she stopped, and Chen Tao behind her was also frightened to stop. Ye Yuyao turned his head, put his index finger in front of his lips, and motioned for Chen Tao not to make a sound.
After making sure that there was no problem on his side, Ye Yuyao cautiously poked his head out and looked through the gap between the vines towards the source of the sound.
On the grass not far in front of her, several zombies were sitting around something, and Ye Yuyao knew that it was a corpse when he looked closely. The zombies were feasting on the corpse, and from time to time they pulled some intestines or entrails out of his stomach and put them in their mouths and chewed them, or they grabbed one of his arms and gnawed on the meat like corn. Blood poured from their mouths and dripped onto their hands and clothes, but they didn't care at all, still enjoying the meal.
They ate so seriously that they didn't notice the breath of a living person in the corridor not far from them, which made Ye Yuyao breathe a sigh of relief. She wanted to tell Chen Tao right away that there was nothing wrong with it and that she could move on, but she saw a picture that she definitely didn't want to see.
The zombie that gnawed at the arm finished gnawing on the meat and tried to eat other parts, but it was all taken by its companions. It anxiously searched the corpse, and when it saw the corpse between its legs, its expression became excited, Ye Yuyao was not mistaken, its withered face did have an expression that could be called excited. I saw it reach out between the legs of the corpse, and then grabbed the corpse's second child, ripped it off, and held it in his hand and devoured it.
Ye Yuyao only felt a chill in her lower body, even though she didn't have that thing now. She quickly withdrew her gaze, her face turned pale and her breath was short, she really wanted to vomit now.
"How...... What's wrong? "
Seeing that Ye Yuyao's expression was a little wrong, Chen Tao immediately asked with concern, but Ye Yuyao just replied, "It's nothing, keep going." And he hurried on. Chen Tao still couldn't stop the question in his heart, so he looked towards the place Ye Yuyao had just looked.
Seeing it like this, he regretted it, and he understood why Ye Yuyao had that expression, and even he subconsciously clamped his legs.
After a short while, they finally walked half the distance of the promenade, and now in front of them, there was an open space, which was one of the passages leading to the playground of the school building, and opposite them, the promenade of the lower half.
The two looked around, there were no zombies in the open space and in the corridor opposite, and those zombies in the corridor between the teaching building and the small garden were far from the entrance of the corridor opposite, as long as they were fast and light, they should not be discovered.
After confirming that there was no problem with their surroundings, the two immediately trotted towards the opposite corridor, there was no time to waste for them, the sun had lost its figure in the sky, and only the red sky was still telling people that it was still daytime. Everything around them gradually became blurred, and it was believed that it would not be long before it would be completely dark, and their field of vision would shrink, and the danger factor would be higher.
After entering the corridor, they are one step closer to the wall climbing point, they only need to pass through this corridor, enter the woods behind the laboratory building, and climb over the fence at the edge of the trees to reach the wall.
"Uh...... Yes...... "
After walking a few steps, Ye Yuyao heard the wailing of zombies in front of her, and she quickly pulled Chen Tao to hide behind a pillar.
As soon as they hid inside, a zombie emerged from the vine next to it, its mouth opening and closing, and it let out a series of faint wails. It looked around, as if looking for food, and looked like a wild dog.
Ye Yuyao's heart was beating very hard, "knocking and knocking" as if it was about to rush out of her chest, and she was even afraid that the zombie would find them because of her heartbeat. At the same time, Ye Yuyao clenched the knife in her hand again, as long as the zombie came over, she would immediately insert the knife into its eye socket.
Chen Tao looked at the small figure beside her, her brows were furrowed at this time, her right hand was holding the handle of the kitchen knife, her small nose was moving because of nervous breathing, and she looked nervous like a great enemy. Chen Tao wanted to help her, but he didn't know what to do, when the zombie was about to appear, he was blinded, if it wasn't for Ye Yuyao's quick reaction, I'm afraid they would have been discovered by the zombie.
The zombie didn't know if it had a bad nose, it didn't smell the smell of the living people next to it, and when it saw that there was no food for itself, it dragged its slow pace and left disappointed. Ye Yuyao heard its footsteps and wails getting farther and farther away, and only then did he breathe a long sigh of relief.
"Alright, let's ......"
Suddenly, a miserable white arm stretched out from the vine at Ye Yuyao's feet, grabbed Ye Yuyao's calf, and pulled her into the vine. Ye Yuyao didn't react at all, she was pulled to the ground all of a sudden, and was quickly dragged into the vine, and the open rotten mouth in the vine let out a howl, and it was about to bite her calf.
At this time, Chen Tao felt that his brain circuit was beating like lightning, and he slashed at the zombie's arm, and actually cut off its arm at once, and dark red blood splashed out from the broken part of the arm. Chen Tao didn't know how he did it, he felt that this was completely a subconscious act, and when Ye Yuyao's leg was caught, his knife had already been swung out.
Feeling that his calves had lost their restraints, Ye Yuyao immediately sat up, reached out and grabbed the head that the zombie wanted to bite down, and plunged a knife into its eyebrow bone.
"Hah...... Ha...... Ha ......"
Ye Yuyao gasped, she didn't know how many times she had brushed shoulders with death, and she seemed to be able to cope with this situation gradually. After the crisis is over, all kinds of sensations in the body come back, whether it's sweating profusely or beating heart.
Ye Yuyao felt that her calf was still being grabbed by something, she looked over, and found that the zombie's severed hand was still clutched, and the cold touch came in through the thin clothing, which made her heart cold. She was crazy and wanted to break the zombie's hand, but it was so tight that it was like a plier clamping on it, and she couldn't break it for a while.
The movement just now attracted the attention of the nearby zombies, and they all turned their heads to look at the corridor where Ye Yuyao and they were, and then turned around, let out an excited howl, approaching the fresh food, like hungry wolves, slowly surrounding this corridor.
Chen Tao raised the bone chopping knife and slashed at the zombie who had just left but turned back, killing him with one blow. He looked around nervously, and the howls and footsteps of zombies came from all directions, and he felt embattled. He knew that if the zombies didn't leave before they got closer, they would be doomed, and he didn't think the vines would be able to stop the monsters.
"We ...... Let's hurry up, it's too late if we don't go......"
Chen Tao said this while looking at the zombies that were approaching a little bit around him, and finally, he looked at Ye Yuyao.
And the next moment, he froze.
This is not because of Ye Yuyao's beauty, but because he sees ...... Ye Yuyao was sitting on the ground, constantly shaking the palm of the zombie, his movements were very impatient, and his face looked disgusted, as if he had stepped on a toad and had to clean the soles of his shoes. Seeing that she couldn't break it with her bare hands, she simply picked up the knife and cut the zombie's thumb little by little, and the gurgling blood came out, dyeing her hands even redder.
"That...... Leaf...... Ye Yuyao? ”
Chen Tao's voice trembled a little, he felt that Ye Yuyao was very strange at this moment, as if he was possessed by something, Ye Yuyao's appearance was more terrifying than those zombies who were close.
Ye Yuyao didn't pay attention to him at all, she just cut the zombie's finger seriously, she knew that many, many zombies were coming, but she had to take this damn hand down, no matter what, otherwise she would go crazy.
Even if she looks like she's gone crazy now.
Soon, most of the zombie's thumb was cut off by her, she held the knife in her hand with her backhand, then grabbed the zombie's thumb and tore it off the palm of her hand, and at the same time the zombie's palm also left her calf. After that, she rubbed the legs of her school pants like crazy, as if they were stained with the virus of those zombies.
And her sanity gradually sobered up, and she saw Chen Tao looking at her, but his frightened expression shocked her heart.
He...... Why are you looking at me like that?
But without saying a word, she got up from the ground and immediately ran towards the grove. Chen Tao reacted at this time and hurriedly followed behind her.
They simply don't have time to think about those issues.
