Chapter 9: The Rotting Corpse

"Xiaoqing, what should I do? What to do? ”

In the convenience store, Ji Yuhan clutched his friend's clothes tightly, his voice trembled, his hands trembled, and even his two beautiful legs in black stockings were trembling.

The whole person does not return to school, and the beauty that should be seen has become decadent and messy.

Bai Qing was no better, but she resisted the urge to break down and cry, trying to bite her lower lip, her hands clenched tightly on the hook, the sharp hook dripping with blood, stained with red and white pus.

Opposite the two of them, a living dead man had been hooked and half of his head was lying to the ground, his gray face was full of hideousness, his brain was flowing to the ground, and the small lounge was full of gaging breath.

This is the little brother who works in a convenience store, when the end of the world comes, Bai Qing and Ji Yuhan buy things at the convenience store, and after waking up from a coma, the whole world has changed, and there are monsters outside.

The little brother is very good, obviously he has been hiding, after hearing the screams of the two women, he ran out to protect them and hid in the lounge behind the convenience store, but he cut the wound when he resisted the zombies, and it didn't take long for him to become a living dead, and finally died under the hook he usually used to organize the goods, and the guy who killed him was the one he desperately saved himself.

Absurdity, or despair?

Nobody knows.

Just when the two women were at a loss and in despair, there was a sudden knocking sound outside, as if the road pile driver was regularly knocking out pile holes in the ground that fit the square circle.

"What's that sound?" Ji Yuhan probably didn't understand what a piledriver was, but she knew that such a sound was unlikely to come from a monster.

"It looks like a construction truck." Bai Qing's eyes suddenly brightened, "But it's also a little strange, I can't hear the sound of the engine, only the sound of banging one by one." ”

The strange banging sound came from far and near, until it came to the front of the school convenience store, and then stopped.

"Outside the convenience store?" Ji Yuhan's voice was full of surprise, "Xiaoqing, should we go out and have a look?" ”

"Wait, it's not very clear yet." Bai Qing was also very happy in her heart, but she still suppressed her impulse, "There are so many monsters outside, and you may not be able to be saved if you go out now." ”

As if in response to Bai Qing's words, the bubble sound of carrion monsters sounded outside the convenience store.

The carrion is a humanoid entity between a zombie and a skeleton, and its strength is about the middle level of the first order.

It doesn't have the sturdy skin of zombies, and it's not as massive as skeletons, and its appearance is weak and ugly, like a puddle of mud on a broken skeleton, and the melted rotten flesh is constantly bubbling up, 'Puda' and 'Puda' bursting, and oozing turbid yellow pus.

But it has a terrifying ability that explodes after taking a lot of attacks!

The exploding bone fragment carries the decay virus, covering a full ten meters of range, if you are injured by the bone fragment, hehe, unless there is a poison extraction potion or a professional who is good at purifying magic, it will wait to become the next rotting corpse.

The person who came was Chu Ci.

Galloping all the way, not only did he not have the slightest embarrassment, but he also collected a lot of soul fire, almost thirty skulls, bulging bags of marijuana picked up on the road.

The blood pouch in his hand was red to purple, containing a lot of zombie blood and fat water warrior blood, and more of them were the blood of people who died tragically, and the end of the world broke out for only a few hours, and the blood of those unfortunate people was still fresh and active.

As long as he collected enough food to last for a few days, Chu Ci would find a safe place to upgrade and maintain the eight-legged sword spider.

But the truth is often not what people want.

The huge eight-legged sword spider stood at the door of the convenience store, its four steel claws firmly protecting Chu Ci behind it, and its reddened eyes stared at the carrion monster in front of him without the slightest movement.

It is just a puppet, not a living being, and it does not have the agile physical reaction of eagerness, and will only completely obey all of Chu Ci's orders.

Chu Ci asked it to defend in place, and it would not take the initiative to attack.

"Huh?" Chu Ci raised his eyelids and glanced at the carrion monster, his brows furrowed slightly.

This kind of unstable self-detonating bomb is much more difficult to deal with than the Fat Water Warrior.

Manipulating the eight-legged sword spider can completely kill the rotting corpse, but the decay virus ejected by the explosion of the rotting corpse monster has a high chance of corroding the shell of the eight-legged sword spider with not very high resistance, damaging its running circuit.

In addition, he can also solve the rotting corpse monster with the attack technique in alchemy, but Chu Ci's current spiritual power and the strength of the magic power in his body are too heavy to drive the attack technique, after all, it is now the 'front end of dawn', and the elements of Blue Mercury have not yet been completely precipitated, and the speed of recovering his strength is too slow.

However, Chu Ci doesn't necessarily need to kill it.

The corners of his mouth lifted, and the 'quasi-alchemist' who was reborn was still so calm.

"The rotting corpses also have a weakness, that is, they are naturally afraid of fire, and the fierce flames can roast the rotting corpses into charcoal to avoid causing explosions."

Chu Ci doesn't need to destroy it directly, as long as he knows how to take advantage of its natural weakness, he can still come and go freely.

With a brisk pace, bypassing the interception of the carrion monster, Chu Ci rushed into the convenience store, reached out and grabbed a mop, then opened a bottle of cooking oil and poured it on the mop, lighter, "bear", and the mop burst into a large fire.

The sudden high temperature suddenly startled the carrion monster that was slowly approaching Chu Ci.

The carrion monster wanted to lean over, but was afraid of the flame mop in Chu Ci's hand, so he finally stopped and staggered in place.

Chu Ci didn't stop moving, moved an iron bucket, filled a small half barrel of oil, lit a fire, and placed it in the middle of the convenience store.

The blazing fire barrel emitted an even more violent heat, which made the carrion monster extremely uneasy, and retreated directly to the door, leaving Chu Ci alone in the convenience store.

"We're searching for supplies."

Chu Ci looked at the food and goods scattered everywhere, without any fluctuations, after all, in the last days, he had seen more messy and dirty shops than this, but when he skimmed a shelf out of the corner of his eye, Chu Ci's body suddenly froze, and there was a trace of sadness in his eyes, and there was a trace of nostalgia.

……

"Uncle Wei, look, I found a box of candy shortbread." Chu Ci, who was covered with dust, tried his best to suppress his excitement, and gently bumped Uncle Wei, who had saved his life, with his shoulder, and whispered.

Uncle Wei was startled, then reacted, hurriedly covered the expression on his face, and lowered his head to dig the sand and gravel.

"Ah Ci, lower your head, don't let people see it, bury things first, don't show flaws."

"Hmm!"

Chu Ci nodded vigorously.

In the past three days, Chu Ci has only eaten half of the expired steamed buns, and he has been so hungry that he can hardly endure it.

This time, I was taken out by the Flame Demon Hunter to dig up the ruins, but I didn't expect to actually find food.

Chu Ci felt that his stomach was burning, as if he had swallowed a fire, and the terrifying desire to survive drove him to dig out the shortbread, regardless of opening it to eat it.

But he knew he couldn't.

Once discovered by the Fire Hunters, the food will definitely be snatched away!

The hands are so heavy, and the eyelids are so heavy.

Chu Ci's eyes went straight to Venus, pulling on broken stones, enduring the torture of hunger, lifting, throwing, lifting, throwing...

He immediately lost consciousness.

When Chu Ci woke up again, he had already returned to the safe zone, his body was scarred, and he was almost beaten to death.

His companions told him that he had fainted for five whole days, and that five days ago, when he was about to starve to death, it was Uncle Wei who risked his life by digging up the box of candy shortbread from the rubble and stuffing several of them into his mouth.

But Uncle Wei, he...

Chu Ci's eyes were full of sadness, and he touched the corners of his mouth, where there was still a little fragrance of shortbread.

——

"Heh~~"

Chu Ci stood in front of the shelves, looking at the neatly packed dozen boxes of candy shortbread in front of him, and suddenly smiled, as if there was a beautiful bubble in the air, which burst with a light sigh and disappeared without a trace.

Later, he slaughtered the entire Flame Hunters, but so what, people can't be resurrected after death.

The wounds that have been suffered, the pain that has been left behind, will never dissipate.

So...

Whether it is a peaceful era or a cruel last days, if you want to be unharmed, you must have great power, and only by mastering the power will others dare not hurt you, bully you, and insult you.

There is never anything wrong with the desire to become stronger!
