Chapter 169: A Fork in the Road

Su Ming wished that the other party would beat him, because if the infected person did not resist, he was not sure if it was a battle.

It didn't take long for his skin to slowly grow new tender flesh, but it grew slowly, slowly, as the ability said—it took a long time for the injuries to transfer.

Slowly, smoke began to rise from the insubject's body, his skin began to dry, pus evaporated, and slowly flickering sparks flickered on him.

It was dark, and Su Ming was still pressing on the infected.

With the continuous recovery of his injuries, Su Ming has long been out of the state of [Hell Return], although the burns on his body are still very serious, but compared to before, this injury is not worth mentioning at all.

The process of physical recovery is painful, especially the stage of remodeling of the pain nerves, but it is not enough to endure this pain compared to the belief that you want to live.

In addition, Su Ming was even more glad that he had encountered an infected person, this kind of immortal Xiaoqiang, who would always survive as long as he was not forcibly killed, was the most suitable target for the transfer of injuries.

And the virus on the infected person is also completely immune under the action of Su Ming's highly toxic body.

Now, this guy under him, except for being a little disgusting, Su Ming looks at him like a good friend.

After a few more hours, the infected person who was suppressed by Su Ming had severe burns on his body, he was pinched by his throat and couldn't squeeze out a word, while the burns on Su Ming's body had completely healed, and the symptoms of severe ischemia had completely disappeared...... Even the herpes that had grown from the virus before has disappeared.

Su Ming stood up and stepped on the head of the infected with his foot, and a fire flew out of his palm, completely igniting the infected.

The infected were bathed in flames and let out a terrible howl from the fear of death.

Su Ming enjoyed the sound and a smile appeared on his face.

"That's what it's like to be alive."

……

After burning the infected, Su Ming casually found some leaves to cover his shame, and then quickly rushed in the direction where Flora and the others had left.

He had no shoes, no pants, and only a scarlet skirt to cover his shame.

Su Ming was speeding all the way, feeling like a happy wild man, with a healthy body and a strong physique, which made Su Ming feel that he had been reborn and was ecstatic.

He felt like he was running faster than a horse!

Su Ming took advantage of the moonlight to keep hurrying, and finally reached the end of the mountain road a few hours later? He saw two forks in the road appear in front of him from afar, a straight cliff like a sword? Divide the mountain road in half from the middle.

A gust of wind blowing? Su Ming slowly stopped, and he smelled the pungent stench of decay in the air.

He's ready for battle? Moving on and climbing a low hillside? Looking down from above? The slope was littered with corpses.

The flesh of the corpse has turned into a black, viscous liquid? If it is frozenly attached to the bones, you can barely see the human form, the horse and human flesh are stacked on top of each other, and the body is distorted? Reminiscent of some kind of abstract dark art.

Su Ming's heart suddenly tightened? He took a deep breath and stepped forward with a solemn expression, carefully identifying each corpse.

After checking around, there was no trace of Flora and Xia Xiaoyu? He breathed a sigh of relief.

"All of them are dead, and they must have been crushed by some kind of heavy object." Su Ming whispered to himself? Look around, trying to find some clues for him to relate to.

He noticed a steep cliff beside him, with long trees on it, which had now been completely overwhelmed, as if a huge ball of stone had rolled down from it.

Su Ming could imagine what happened here at that time, when Flora and her party walked here, the huge poison on the cliff next to them rushed down the steep slope like falling rocks, and then pressed over with people and horses.

Of course, it is impossible for a stone to be poisonous, let alone to corrupt a corpse to such an extent, and its large body and deadly toxicity are easily reminiscent of the corrupt in Sarah's mouth.

"I don't know if Xia Xiaoyu caught up with the big army at that time, I hope she's okay." Su Ming muttered to himself.

He looked at the forks in the road in front of him, chose one of them, and moved on.

The sky was dark, the moonlight was hazy, and Su Ming's speed slowed down slightly.

After running on the mountain road for more than ten minutes, Su Ming encountered a break in the road and had to stop.

The mountain road was cut off from here, and a ten-meter-long gap appeared in the middle, and he was sure that the gap here had appeared not so long ago, and it could be distinguished by the difference in the color of the rocks on the cliff face.

On the ground of the opposite mountain road, there seemed to be red handwriting, and then the moonlight looked closely, and the glyphs could be faintly recognized.

"It's not...... This, not this road? Su Ming's brows furrowed, he believed that the sentence was left by Xia Xiaoyu.

This road should not be the road to the next village, but why did Xia Xiaoyu take this road?

And, why didn't she write the message here, but across the broken mountain road?

Su Ming retracted his gaze and looked at the broken cliff next to him, he saw that a meter or two away from the opposite side, there were two mountaineering nails nailed to the rock wall, but there were only two, and the follow-up mountaineering nails did not nail all the way, which proved that the person who was going to climb gave up halfway and turned back.

Su Ming's mind came up with the image of Xia Xiaoyu climbing on the rock wall, she wanted to come over at first, but for some reason, she gave up halfway, turned back to the wrong path, and left the last message on the ground.

Looking at the gap of ten meters in front of him, Su Ming frowned.

Although the strengthened body has reached the peak of what ordinary people can reach, it is still very difficult to jump a distance of ten meters, not to mention that this road can't even run in a straight line.

But he can't give up, he has to go over, Xia Xiaoyu is on the other side, and her situation should be very bad.

Su Ming closed his eyes, imagined carefully, and constructed an iron chain with a lock in his mind.

As Su Ming imagined, blood overflowed from his hands, and finally solidified into a chain, and he successfully created a "weapon" that did not look like a weapon.

"Great, it can be made!" Su Ming breathed a sigh of relief, he had a way to get over.

Next, all you need to do is make a sturdy nail and a hammer, and you're done.

……

In the depths of the dark cave, orange light smews.

Xia Xiaoyu sat alone next to the bonfire, holding a mirror to look at her face, in the mirror, her face was as white as paper, the whites of her eyes were bloodshot, and through the light of the fire, she could vaguely see the small blood vessels under the skin beating slightly.

She suddenly felt a little dry in her eyes, and wiped it gently, feeling a little blood on her fingertips...... Her eyes were starting to bleed and her vision seemed to be declining.

"Damn." Xia Xiaoyu's voice was rough and dry, as if there was no moisture in her throat, as if she was filled with thick phlegm.

She weakly set the mirror aside and kept her body close to the campfire to keep warm, her cold body finally warmed up a little, but the itching of her skin made her want to scratch, and she had to concentrate to restrain the urge to scratch.

"That thing, it should be the corrupt."

Xia Xiaoyu recalled the behemoth she had encountered before...... That monster can actually see her.

If you think about it, she could have done better at the time, but the corrupt man appeared too suddenly.

At that time, she had just caught up with Flora's large army, and they were about to enter the fork in the road on the right, but when the first half of the team entered, the corrupt who rolled down the hillside cut off the whole team, and many people were directly stoned to death by the corrupt people.

She was at the end, and Flora was already on the right path, and the first action taken by the corrupt was to pursue Flora and the others.

In order to stop the corrupt from pursuing the large army, Xia Xiaoyu tried to attack the corrupt with firearms, and although the kinetic attack of the rifle did not cause significant damage to it, the corrupt did respond to her.

It noticed her presence and made her a target for pursuit, so much so that she had to go the other way.

Even now, Xia Xiaoyu couldn't believe that the ghost thing was moving so fast, the speed of the other party was not much different from that of a horse, although the body was huge, it was completely a rolling slime, and the volume did not affect its actions in any way.

If it weren't for the weight of the corrupt man who crushed the mountain road halfway, Xia Xiaoyu believed that he would never have survived.

There was nothing she could do to fight the monster, not even a little closer.

During the whole chase, she didn't come into contact with the corrupt at all, but only inhaled a little bit of the foul smell emitted by the other party, and her body became so bad,

The horse she was riding was dead, and now it was her turn.

Originally, Xia Xiaoyu planned to return to the right path the same way, she carried climbing props with her, which could cross the broken mountain road, but her physical strength was no longer enough to support her to climb the short distance of ten meters.

At that time, the only thing he could do was to leave a secret message to Su Ming and inform the other party that this path was not the right path.

Can Su Ming see that code? If he had only been there at night, would he not be able to see clearly if the light was too dim?

But since the mountain road is broken, he should go back and take another way, hoping that he can catch up with Flora and them, in this strange world, you can't live alone.

While thinking, she took out the canned food she had brought with her, the food did not taste anything in her mouth, and after a few bites, she could not eat it.

The body is getting colder and colder, the itching sensation on her body slowly evolves into a dull pain, she can clearly feel the process of body changes, the sensitive itchy skin slowly becomes dull and paralyzed, and now there will be no pain when you pinch yourself gently, the tip of the tongue is also numb, and the fingers cannot contract freely.

Damn, can't you resist it with your own immunity? It was naïve before.

Xia Xiaoyu sat on the edge of the stone, staring at the constantly writhing bonfire, with a lot of thoughts in her heart.
