Chapter 21: That Warmth
In the hotel, Shen Chuxue had already boiled water to put the quick-frozen dumplings I got from the supermarket into the pot, and the water used was naturally the water received from the faucet.
Although it was a little strange why those zombies didn't attack me, I didn't think much about it, and quickly returned to the hotel, and was naturally very happy to see that I was safe and sound, and even jumped to the kitchen to check the situation of the dumplings. I sat on the stool, on the table in front of me was the bottle full of zombie blood, the black zombie blood was full of bottles, no matter how I shook it, I couldn't see its intention to change, the black blood was not mixed with any impurities at all, and it seemed to be a perfect black stone in a transparent plastic bottle.
I took out a disposable paper cup from the side and poured blood from the bottle into the cup, a smell that I don't know how to describe got into my nostrils, neither the simple smell of blood, nor the fishy smell I thought before, "Goo, goo", I shook the paper cup, a few bubbles came out of the blood, and I was a little excited.
"What does it smell, it stinks!" Shen Chuxue pinched her nose and walked out of the kitchen, a few wrinkles appeared on her snow-white forehead, and her voice was buzzing with a trilling sound because of difficulty breathing, but it was unique.
I was stunned for a moment, handed the paper cup in my hand to my nose and sniffed, although there was a strange taste, but it was not as stinky as she appeared, my head flashed, and suddenly there was a guess, I waved my hand at her: "Chuxue, you come here, look at this thing." β
Shen Chuxue pinched her nose and walked over, and when she saw the liquid in my hand, her brows furrowed even deeper: "This, isn't this the blood of zombies?" Why did you bring in such a foul thing? Her voice was full of anger.
I pointed to the kitchen and smiled, "Your dumplings are going to be mushy!" "Ahh She screamed violently, and didn't care about asking about the zombie blood, and hurriedly ran to the kitchen. I scratched my somewhat swollen ears, looked at the blood in front of me and fell into deep thought, it seems that it is not the smell of blood that has changed, but my sense of smell has changed, which can be seen from Shen Chuxue's reaction. I frowned, a little puzzled by some of the changes that had occurred in my body, it should be that the zombie blood I accidentally drank before caused the mutation in my body, so if I drink the zombie blood again, will there be a greater change?
I played with the disposable paper cup in my hand and fell into deep thought, now I am sure that it must be the zombie blood that caused its own mutation, which can be seen in the whitish skin and injured claws, but should I try again? I slowly passed the paper cup to my lips, and the strange taste became clearer and clearer.
"It's time to eat!" Suddenly, Shen Chuxue shouted, sticking out a handsome head from the kitchen door. I slammed the paper cup to my lips less than ten centimeters from my lips, I frowned, put the cup back on the table, and the blood splattered on the table with a black rose.
"Here we go", I turned my head and smiled at her, she had already put the dumplings on the dining table, "just eat them in the kitchen, the bedroom is all stinky and smells bad to death", she wrinkled her small nose and complained, "I don't know what your name is?" β
My hand holding the rice trembled for a moment, but immediately behaved indifferently, "What's it called", I said lightly, stuffing a dumpling into my mouth, "You just call me corpse." "Poetry?" Shen Chuxue paused for a moment, "There are still poets with surnames?" β
I didn't reply, just a faint smile drawn upwards from the corners of my mouth, "What about you?" I asked rhetorically. Shen Chuxue", she smiled sweetly, "Because I was born when the first snow fell in ninety-eight, it was called Chuxue." β
"First snow, first snow", I muttered the name in my mouth, and suddenly felt a little familiar, "I remember, you are Jinzhou Renmin University, right?" I looked at her and exclaimed, no wonderγγγγγγ Shen Chuxue was stunned: "How do you know?" Are you too? I smiled and nodded, I didn't expect that the school flower that I hadn't seen in school for two years would meet here by chance, "Shen Xiaohua, of course I know", I smiled, and my eyes casually swept over her body.
Shen Chuxue trembled, her face was red, and she hurriedly buried her head to eat, not daring me to see the blush on her face, the autumn wind howling outside the window, accompanied by the unwilling roar of zombies, the whole city fell into an uneasy panic, the hot air in the hotel filled the room, and the crystal dumplings and the shy beauty in front of me made me suddenly feel a trace of warmth.
Soon after eating, I returned to the table in the bedroom, looking at the blood on the table in a silent daze, I don't know if I should try, if I am alone, I will definitely try without hesitation, after all, this is the only way to cause me to mutate, however, I turned my head to look at Shen Chuxue, who was busy in the kitchen, and worried that if something happened, she would be alone in this zombie-filled city, "Hey." I sighed, poured the blood from the table into the toilet, and waited until I got her out safely.
Outside the hotel, the group of first-order zombies with missing arms and legs were still standing in place, although the direction of the standing position was different, but the surging bodies were all facing one direction, that is, the hotel where Shen Chuxue and I were, "Tartar, Tartar, Tartar" A few crisp footsteps came from behind the zombie group, and a pair of clean military boots appeared in front of the zombie group, Fang Jin looked at the more than 100 zombies in front of him, and felt a little crazy in his heart, these are all his subordinates, with these zombies, he can't dominate the party in this city? He lifted his gloomy face, it was a face that was not much different from that of a human, the color of his skin and his hair were no different, and if it weren't for the occasional flash of blood in his eyes, others would have thought he was a real human.
I jerked my head up and looked out through the window, and a pair of violent gazes met in the air, a chill rushed from the soles of my feet to the heavenly spirit cover, and I squinted my eyes, and a hint of uncertainty flashed in my eyes. I lifted the Qinglong Glaive Knife, patted Shen Chuxue's head from the kitchen with my empty other hand, and whispered, "I'll go to the door to do something, just come when I go, you can rest first." β
Shen Chuxue was stunned, you should rest first, do you want to rest together for a while? A flush appeared on her face, and before she could reply, I had already left the room.
