Chapter 35: Kissing

After a quick rest of ten minutes, we put our weapons together, quietly opened the door and slipped out.

The fields are open, and the ragged walking corpses walk unconsciously in the paddy fields, whining and screaming. We try not to make noise, stay away from them, so that we can be safe with each other.

Of course, we couldn't go back the way we came, but walked along a ridge parallel to the embankment, and waited long enough for the corpses to climb back to the embankment.

The truck that helped us escape from the campus was left there, surrounded by a dense crowd of dead people, and tragically, all the food we got from the convenience store was still in the car.

There were only a few dead people on the road ahead, and Guan Fei and Wu Chenxing took the lead, and they were knocked down after three strikes and five divisions. At the end of the ridge are two rows of windbreaks, and you can go up the trail between the windbreaks to return to the embankment.

There didn't seem to be much danger on the trail, but we had a lot of dreams at night, so we picked up speed and ran forward. But running with the wind on my back made me a little unbearable, and my speed slowed down. Seeing this, Guan Fei took the initiative to come over and pick up Lu Feng.

When she was still about 50 meters away from the embankment, Xiao Rou suddenly stopped, pressing her knees and chest to gasp.

"I—I can't run......" she smiled helplessly, sweating profusely. I've run more than 300 meters, and even I'm a little out of breath, but now is obviously not the time to stop and rest. I was about to go over and take her hand when I suddenly heard an ominous whimper.

The trunk of the tree beside her shook out a face, and it opened its mouth wide and bit her neck. I was taken aback, and immediately raised my iron spear and stabbed it into the eye socket of the deceased, and a large amount of brown-red liquid mixed with the eyeballs poured on Xiao Rou's shoulder. Her legs went limp, and she fell to the ground.

At this time, I realized that behind the windbreak, there were many dead people unknowingly. I immediately ran over and took her hand: "Hurry up!" ā€

But after running a few steps, she sat on the ground again, and said with a wry smile: "Senior, I, I really can't run, you guys go first!" ā€

"What a stupid thing!" I immediately approached her, picked her up, and ran after her.

We finally climbed the embankment and ran about 50 meters away from the old bridge before slowing down.

"It doesn't seem to be chasing them, those should be slow zombies, right?" Hatsumi said. The "slow zombie" in her mouth should refer to the slow walker.

"Senior, you can let me down!" Xiao Rou's face flushed and whispered.

"Ahh I put her down right away.

The group was still walking very quietly, and the number of dead on both sides was indeed thinning out. But we were still afraid of being attacked, so we walked in groups of two side by side in the middle of the road.

When I walked towards Xiao Lin and wanted to walk side by side with her, she suddenly walked up to Xiao Jiu at the moment I approached and ignored me.

I shook my head helplessly, and then Wu Chenxing came to my side and said:

"When we get to the right position in a moment, I'll take the wounded friend across the other side with you, and then I'll turn back and transport the others over."

I nodded, and that was our original plan.

After walking about 300 meters, the embankment was empty, there was not a single dead person, and we decided that this was the place.

The water of the Yuto River flowed in front of us, and we came to a staircase at the edge of the embankment, and then descended from the staircase to the water's edge.

Wu Chenxing immediately took off his shirt and pants, leaving only one pair of pants, and the toned figure of the basketball player was suddenly revealed.

"Rope!" He reached out his hand backwards, and the dog immediately handed him the rope he had been carrying.

"Help fix it here, I'll come when I go!" He said to the dog, and then he picked up the rope and jumped into the river with a "coo".

He swam extremely fast, and he swam more than ten meters with one kick. The distance from here to the opposite shore was about 200 meters, and he swam to the other shore in a few minutes.

Wu Chenxing dragged the rope in his hand ashore, and then tied it to the trunk of a big tree, and then the dog also fixed this end, so a rope about 30 centimeters above the water surface was erected in the air. After confirming that the rope was fixed, Wu Chenxing jumped into the river with a thud and swam back.

We have put an iron plate in the water and put the land breeze on it. But the iron plate draught barely floated on the surface of the water. Wu Chenxing pulled up the iron plate and swam forward. I also took off my shirt and went down into the water to grab the other end of the iron plate.

The river was quite turbulent and the iron plates were so shaky that I had to hold on to ropes in the air to hold my position. The waves on the surface of the water were heaving violently, and several times the river poured into my nostrils, causing me to cough violently.

"It doesn't matter, Ah Chen?" Wu Chenxing turned his head to look at me. He is a better swimmer than me, and certainly not choking like a rookie like me.

"I hold a breath in my nose, and when water comes up, I use that breath to push the water out. After a few attempts, you will gradually become familiar with this feeling. He said.

I tried it, and at first I still choked on the water, but it didn't take long to get the hang of it and I stopped choking.

Although the river is only 200 meters long, it feels extremely wide when you are in it, as if you will never reach the other side. We were silent all the way, and it wasn't until we were halfway through that he asked, "Ah Chen, what have you been through along the way?" Why did this friend get a gunshot wound? ā€

"That's ......," I told him a brief summary of what I had experienced at school.

"I see, you have experienced more twists and turns and disasters than we have......"

I also remembered one thing, so I asked, "By the way, don't blame me for talking too much, we all think that you are a good match for Sister Hatsumi, and Sister Hatsumi seems to like you too, why don't you be together?" ā€

I sincerely hope that Hatsumi's confession will come to an end, and in this apocalypse, there is no happier than letting the person you like fall in love with you.

Wu Chenxing was about to say something, but suddenly looked in the direction of the old bridge vigilantly. I saw a corpse on the surface of the river that had floated to us at some point, its head buried in the water, not moving.

Wu Chenxing also immediately let go of the rope and swam forward quickly, and the moment before it floated under the rope, we crossed the corpse.

"Whew......" I let out a sigh of relief, thinking to myself that it was just an ordinary corpse. But when I turned my head a second time, the body was gone!

I panicked, paddling and looking around, but I couldn't see the body anywhere, and I took a few sips of water before I was caught off guard.

"Ah Chen, look below!" Chenxing shouted.

I immediately turned my gaze to the water. The light refracted from the water into the eyes was so terrifying. The walking corpse with a puffy face, teeth and claws was already approaching my abdomen. I was startled and paddled backwards desperately.

Then I realized that the deceased was sinking due to the large amount of water he had sucked in, and soon disappeared into the deep black water. After the horror calmed down, I thought, could it be that this person had just died and drifted here before his corpse was transformed?

"Ah Chen, what are you still doing in a daze? Come on! So we picked up speed and swam to the other side.

Wu Chenxing climbed ashore and carefully carried Lu Feng up. I was gasping for air.

On this side of the bank was also an embankment, and the embankment was empty and frighteningly quiet. Beyond the embankment, I saw many tall buildings rising under the low sky.

"Ah Chen, you look at him, I'll go back and help the others!" Wu Chenxing said.

He threw the iron plate into the river and was about to jump down when he suddenly turned his back to me and said, "By the way, I haven't answered your question yet." My answer was that I liked Hatsumi and liked her before she confessed to me for the first time, but at that time I was full of cleanliness and I always wanted to make myself better. However, when I confessed to her after I decided to win the game, I didn't expect that the world would be like this before the game was over......"

He continued: "Actually, I didn't send you here entirely because you saved my brother, but at that moment I suddenly had an idea, I told myself, if I can get you here safely, I will confess to her, I will let go of any knots in my heart, and live and die with her wholeheartedly!" ā€

With that, he jumped into the river with a thud. He swam back and forth two more times and finally got us all ashore. Hatsumi is waiting for him on the other side.

"The next road will definitely not be easy, good luck to you!" He turned to leave, but Xiao Lin suddenly called out to him.

"Thank you, Brother Chenxing! Thank you for me, Sister Hatsumi, you guys are so nice! Tears were already in her eyes.

"Dude, you must live!" Guan Fei, who was five big and three thick, also hugged Wu Chenxing, and his voice was reluctant.

We said goodbye to him one by one. Finally he turned back to me and bowed slightly, and I nodded knowingly, and he jumped into the rushing river.

Guan Fei picked up the land breeze on his back, and we began to walk towards the road on the river embankment. Suddenly, Xiao Lin pointed to the other side and panicked: "Sister Chumei! Sister Hatsumi! ā€

I also turned my head sharply, and although it was far away, I could clearly see that as Hatsumi was standing by the river waiting for Wu Chenxing, she didn't notice at all that a slow walker was slowly approaching her from the slope.

By the time she turned around, the zombie had come to her face and devoured her neck with ferocity. Xiao Lin screamed and closed her eyes.

At this time, a big hand reached ashore and pulled Hatsumi down. Then the owner of the big hand turned ashore again, picked up the weapon on the shore, and with one blow the dead man who tried to kill his beloved.

Hatsumi was pulled back to shore, her hair wet and clinging to her shoulders, and the powder-blue skirt dripping with water. She wanted to say something, but her mouth was sealed with the same moist mouth.

They kissed and hugged each other passionately and glued together for a long time until they disappeared from our sight.
