Volume 1 Danger Lurks Chapter 23 The Hidden Truth

Xiao Jing looked up at the sky, the last rays of the sun on the horizon reflected the west red, and half of the sunset was reflected among the trees, releasing the last light.

He looked at Yu Wenjing, he was the core of the team, really? Did Yu Chao think the same way? Then, he really disappointed them!

Yu Wenjing said: "It's time to choose again! Do you choose to persevere, or are you cowardly?"

Xiao Jing's face was uncertain, sometimes sad, sometimes calm, sometimes languishing, sometimes excited. Yu Wenjing just looked at him without saying a word.

In the end, Xiao Jing's expression became calmer and calmer, and firmness returned to his eyes: since they chose me, then I want to make their choice meaningful, and since I chose to promise, it is my responsibility to make this promise come true!

"I choose to persevere! I will take this responsibility!" Xiao Jing said firmly, his words seemed to contain something, like a thousand-meter-deep pool, as firm as ever!

At the same time, he secretly resolved in his heart that this was the last time, the last wavering, the last weakness. From now on, I will go to the end for our common goal!

Yu Wenjing didn't say anything more, just nodded, speaking was not her character in the first place, and she never cherished words like gold until the necessary moment.

Then, Xiao Jing tidied up Yu Chao's body, chose a good position facing the sun on the hillside, buried him, and erected a tombstone with a solid heavy wooden block, which read "The Tomb of My Forever Friend Yu Chao", and a line of small characters next to it "Xiao Jing Yu Wenjing Jingli".

Xiao Jing solemnly bowed a few times in front of the tombstone, and secretly resolved in his heart to fulfill that arduous wish for him and save the world!

Everything went on in silence, and the two kept watch in the dark night until dawn, ate a few fruits to fill their stomachs, and finally set out on the road back after a final memorial service.

There was still silence on the road, no one had the desire to speak, there was no word all the way, and a few hours later, the two came to the familiar downstairs of the North District supermarket.

Xiao Jing found that the few monsters that were wandering around the supermarket before seemed to have dispersed, but the downstairs seemed to be very calm.

But when they came to the corridor, they were still tightly blocked, so the two had to climb the water pipe from the same road, but they found that the water pipe was stained with a large amount of blood.

Climbing onto the balcony, Xiao Jing found that there was an aluminum alloy ladder here, the kind that could be retracted, it should have been someone who went out after they left.

Xiao Jing groaned and knocked on the door, there was a suspicious discussion behind the door, and then Zhang Mao's voice came: "Who are you?"

Xiao Jing heard that his vigilance was very strong, so he said, "I'm Xiao Jing, the one who went out before." ”

There were a few sounds of heavy objects being moved away from the room, Zhang Mao opened the door with a ten-centimeter gap, looked out, and when he saw Xiao Jing, he said with some uncertainty: "You are, you are Xiao Jing?"

Xiao Jing looked at his clothes, no wonder he couldn't recognize it, he was wrapped in wolf skin, his hair was knotted together, messy, and there were a lot of suspicious foreign objects sticky, if nothing else, his face was afraid that it was also black and white.

So he turned the Tang knife sheath from behind to the front, and said, "You always know this." ”

Zhang Mao finally believed it, opened the door wider, and let Xiao Jing in.

Xiao Jing found that the light in the hall was very insufficient, they closed the curtains, not only that, but also blocked it tightly with sundries, and everyone was not in a good state, and their faces were sluggish.

Xiao Jing was puzzled: "If you don't open the window like this, it's daytime now, and why don't you look good?"

Zhang Mao said: "It's not that we don't open it, it's that we don't dare to open it! In the past few days, there have been powerful monsters around, and if you open the window, they will find it!"

"Awesome monsters?" Xiao Jing wondered, "What kind of monsters are they?"

"Wolves, wild boars, bobcats, and bats with wings more than one meter long! We went down the day before yesterday to fetch something, and two of them were bitten to death by monsters!" Zhang Mao palpitated.

Xiao Jing frowned, judging from what they saw, the monsters outside should not be so dense, listening to Zhang Mao, in just a few days, they have seen several groups of monsters infested.

Xiao Jing counted the number, originally there should be thirteen people here, three women and nine men, among the girls, Yu Wenjing went out with her, as well as Zhang Mao's girlfriend Li Yao, and a girl with a ponytail.

Among the boys, Ma Cheng and Yu Chao are dead, there should be seven more boys here, but with Zhang Mao only five, no wonder I feel that this place is much more empty when I come in.

In other words, there are only 7 people in the supermarket now. At this time, Zhang Mao seemed to have discovered something, and said in surprise: "Why did the two of you come back, Yu Chao, and that ...... What about the other two boys?"

It seems that he doesn't know Ma Cheng, so he can't name it, the corners of Xiao Jing's mouth twitched slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "They all sacrificed." ”

Zhang Mao didn't seem to see any sadness on his face, but looked a little excited, and said loudly: "What did I say, it's more dangerous to go out, do you still want to go out, ha!"

He said this to the other boys in the hall, but inside and outside the words, they seemed to be mocking Xiao Jing.

However, Xiao Jing's mood is not high, and he doesn't want to worry about him, but it seems that Zhang Mao can't completely manage these people, and how many of them seem to have different opinions with him?

Xiao Jing said: "You said to go downstairs to pick up something, what to take?"

At this time, a boy by the window in the hall said: "Food, we were going to finish eating the things in this canteen a few days ago, and we took some the day before yesterday, but it was still not enough, and we ran out of food last night." ”

Xiao Jing remembered that this boy seemed to be called Liao Weiyuan, and he was also tall and taciturn, but at first glance, he knew that he was a very assertive character.

He didn't look at the crowd, but just took a table leg and sharpened it with a kitchen knife.

Xiao Jing's expression moved slightly, this person is a character, it seems that he is ready to go out and fight, and he also knows how to use the existing conditions to prepare, and he is extremely actionable! He should be the one who does not deal with Zhang Mao.

"Are you going to go down and get something?" Xiao Jing asked.

"Hmm. Liao Weiyuan was concise and to the point.

"We still have a little food here, let's divide it, and then, let's go out together and bring things up!" Xiao Jing motioned for Yu Wenjing to take out a few pieces of meat tied to his back.

This is the food prepared by Yu Chao and Yu Wenjing, seeing this, Xiao Jing can't help but think of the second middle school boy who was already lying in the cold soil.

Of course, there is no shortage of pots and seasonings in the cafeteria, but the meat and fruit and vegetable ingredients are delivered once a day, which is why they are eaten so quickly.

Everyone lit the fire, boiled the meat simply, and put some salt, for people who have been hungry for so long, it is no different from a big meal, but Xiao Jing thought of Yu Chao, but he didn't have any appetite, just walked to the side and stared out the window.

Liao Weiyuan came to him, was silent for a few seconds, and said, "I want to know how Yu Chao died." ”

Xiao Jing looked back at him, took a deep breath, and then exhaled, silent for a long time, and said, "I was killed by a monitor lizard, and I couldn't save him." ”

Liao Weiyuan stared at his eyes tightly, as if he was observing whether he was lying, and after a long time, he sighed and said, "That's it." ”

He looked out the window, pursed his lips, and said, "He's my best friend, I was going to go with him, but he asked me to stay, so as to leave us a way out, I'...... I'm supposed to go along. ”

Xiao Jing looked at his reddish and bloodshot eyes, and said, "He is good, he has helped a lot, his death is my fault, I didn't protect him well." ”

Liao Weiyuan shook his head and said: "Don't worry, I'm not a stalker, I won't be angry with you, judging from your expression and demeanor, what you say is the truth, people's eyes will not deceive people, I trust my own judgment." ”

Xiao Jing was silent, and at this time, everyone was almost full of food and drink, so he said, "Let's go and discuss the matter of getting food." ”

Xiao Jing came to the center of the hall, signaled everyone to be quiet, and said, "We don't have much food left, and you know that we have to go down to find food, so let's discuss it now, what should we do." ”

In fact, with Xiao Jing's strength, he can go out and get the food by himself, but he must find out the personality of these people, and he has to understand how much before holding a discussion meeting.

Zhang Mao still had a bone in his mouth, and walked over and said, "I think it's better to pick a few capable ones, and we will answer them on it." ”

Xiao Jing glanced at him meaningfully, this "we" is very interesting. Does he mean he's not going down to get food, he's shouting and cheering on it?

It seems that this Zhang Mao is really scared, otherwise with his character, he should not have given up such an opportunity to express himself.

Xiao Jing didn't force him, anyway, he was only here for a while, and he had to explore the other places soon, and how he dared to do it had nothing to do with him.

He said: "That's it, the principle of voluntariness, if you are willing to go down, you will go down to help, and if you don't go, you will help us take care of it from above." ”

Everyone nodded in agreement with this idea, and then Zhang Mao couldn't wait to raise his hand and said: "I have a little pain in my foot in the past two days, and I didn't say it because I was afraid that you would be worried, so I won't drag you back this time." ”

Xiao Jing was secretly funny, he had already seen that this Zhang Mao was not only timid, but also liked to encourage others to explore the way for him, what a villain!

Then, the two girls naturally didn't go, and the two boys also stood up and said that they didn't dare to go out, only Liao Weiyuan stood up silently, and there was also a thin boy named Yan Mouhui, who felt that he should do his part.

In the end, a total of four people decided to go down to get food, namely Yu Wenjing, Liao Weiyuan, Yan Mouhui and Xiao Jing himself.

In fact, Xiao Jing was worried in his heart, in fact, he had already noticed that things were by no means as light as Zhang Mao said, otherwise, no matter how dangerous it was outside, a group of hot-blooded boys, at such a close distance, how could they not dare to let go!
