CHAPTER XIX
On a snowy night, a man opened the door and saw a baby girl in swaddling clothes, placed on a bluestone slab covered with snowflakes. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info her little face was frozen pale and bloodless, and even her cry was small, as weak as a newborn kitten. The snowflakes falling from the sky are still falling on the swaddling clothes and the baby girl's face.
The man looked at the dim sky and shivered from the cold weather. He bent down and picked up the little life, turned and went back to the house.
The screen turns.
The baby girl was already able to crawl all over the floor. The little face was flushed, and it was no longer thin and white in swaddling clothes. The man was helping her change out of her soiled clothes. The baby girl giggled as she reached out her little hand to grab the man's beard, as if she had discovered something funny.
How much strength can a child have?
Although the man's beard was pulled a little painfully, he still looked at the baby girl with doting eyes. The dirty clothes were taken off, revealing the white and tender skin of the baby girl, as well as the jade plaque she hung around her neck, which was engraved with the word "Lingqi".
It's like five or six years have passed in an instant.
The baby girl has become a five- or six-year-old girl. But the man showed no signs of aging. The man wanted to send the girl to kindergarten, but the girl hugged the man's thigh and refused to let go.
The small mouth was pursed, and the eyes purer than obsidian were misty, and the tears were already rolling in her eyes, but they stubbornly refused to fall. She looked up at the man, her expression seemed angry and aggrieved.
The man sighed, the principle that things that had been decided would not change again, were defeated by the girl like this. He bent down and picked up the girl, as if to say something. The girl smiled happily, tears falling from her eyes and falling on her grinning face. The small arm encircled the man's neck, and the head rested affectionately on the man's shoulder.
Although the picture behind it is still flashing, no matter how carefully Luo Lin Xingzhu looks at it, it seems to be looking through a frosted glass, and there is a faint scene but he can't see the content of the picture clearly.
At this time, Luo Lin Xingzhu had already known his relationship with Ling Zhu from the few clear scenes just now. Ling was his adopted daughter, and he picked her up and adopted her.
But because he couldn't see the back picture clearly, he didn't know how old he was when he raised her, why he left her later, and even when he became a zombie. He knew that it was the reason why the memory had not fully recovered. When his immortal power is higher, he may be able to know everything.
As for whether he can return to Ling Hui's side, this is obviously impossible. He is a zombie, a mortal enemy of humans. He feeds on humans, who make it their mission to exterminate zombies. The situation between the two sides has long been a never-ending situation, and there is no possibility of détente at all. How could he stay by Ling Chen's side as a zombie, that would only bring her trouble and danger.
Luo Lin Xingzhu casually sent a message to the cat's tongue poison and asked him to collect the information of Ling Xuan. A soft gaze shot out of his scarlet eyes, and it was hard to imagine that a zombie would have such a gentle expression, and the corners of his mouth hooked up as he looked at the photo.
"Lan Lang, you hold on a little longer, we will be there soon. Hold on! Xiao Jin shouted at Ju Lanlang, who was holding her with red eyes and had fallen into a semi-comatose state. She put one hand around Ju Lanlang's waist and wrapped his left hand around her neck so that he could lean on her slightly thin shoulder. She herself struggled to move in the direction of the city.
Ju Lanlang's face was ugly, his lips were chapped, his eye sockets were bulging, and the skin on his face was also chapped in small parts. He is now like a fish out of water, starved of water to the extreme. Because of the lack of water and hunger for a long time, his consciousness had long fallen into self-protection, and he was in a semi-comatose state, and he needed to rely on Xiao Jinchao to move.
A full month had passed since the two of them decided to go back to the city. Originally, with their footsteps, it didn't take such a long time. But on the way, they encountered a large group of zombies, a total of ten. That's not a lot that just two of them can handle. They could only deviate from the original route to avoid the encirclement of this large group of zombies.
Later, I thought about going back to the original route, but the situation in the field was unpredictable. The two of them were unlucky, constantly encountering large waves of zombies, and could only keep dodging. Days of evasion caused them to approach the city limits about ten days later than originally scheduled. But at that time, there was not much water and food left in their backpacks, which was simply not enough to last ten days.
Ju Lanlang gave Xiao Jinchao his last remaining drinking water, when he was still five days away from the city. Xiao Jinchao said that he would not drink anything, it was life-saving water. But Lan Lang had already made up his mind to leave the hope of life to Xiao Jinchao, how could he compromise easily. He told Xiao Jinchao that if she didn't drink it, he wouldn't drink it, and the two people who would die at that time would die. If she did, at least one person would be able to go back to the city to report the news and come back to save the other person. And he is a man, he can last longer without drinking water, but Xiao Jinchao cannot.
In the end, Xiao Jinchao still drank the last life-saving water with tears. If it weren't for the various reasons that Ju Lanlang said, how could she Xiao Jinchao be a person who was greedy for life and afraid of death?
It's just that she knows that Ju Lanlang loves her and loves her so much that he is even willing to sacrifice his life for her.
She was unwilling and could not live up to his expectations.
However, she did not leave Ju Lanlang and left alone. Without supplies, left alone in the wilderness full of zombies, only death awaits Ju Lanlang. Xiao Jinchao will definitely not leave him and wait for death.
In the end, when Ju Lanlang fell into a semi-comatose state, Xiao Jinchao moved forward with him. At this time, they were very close to the city, and it was only half a day's time.
"Help! Help me! Xiao Jinchao shouted hard with his hoarse voice due to lack of water. She could already see the thick walls of the city, but her feet seemed to be filled with lead water, and she couldn't move half a step. Leaning on her shoulder, Ju Lanlang was completely unconscious, his weight was like a big stone pressing on her chest, making it difficult for her smoking throat to pant for breath, but she didn't have the slightest intention of letting go of him.
Xiao Jinchao's figure swayed in front of her, and she seemed to see the people guarding the city, rushing towards them with weapons. She could faintly hear the voices of people, but she couldn't hear them. It wasn't until she felt the strength of the stretcher under her that Xiao Jinchao was relieved to pass out, she knew that they were safe.
