Rebirth: I went back to the day of the zombie outbreak

The old man fell into my arms and fainted.

We could only carry him to the third floor and put him in an empty cell.

Then I sent everyone away and asked about Wang Defa's situation.

This guy was captured by zombies on a rainy night yesterday, how did he survive?

It turned out that according to Wang Defa, after he was dragged away by several zombies, he kept struggling and shouting, and no one came to rescue him. He was already hopeless.

Fortunately, the raincoat he was wearing did not cause any harm to the zombies.

Because the mountain road was steep, he slipped and rolled down the mountain holding a zombie.

I didn't know where I fell, but the head of the zombie I was holding hit a rock and broke like an egg.

He ran all the way and found an abandoned warehouse with rotting corpses all over the floor.

As it was dark and the road was slippery, and there were zombies everywhere outside, he didn't dare go out and could only spend the night with these corpses.

This morning, he heard the sound of a car, a bus transporting prisoners.

In order to survive, he didn't care about anything and shouted for help.

The people on the bus dealt with the zombies outside the warehouse, rescued him, and took him on the bus.

He was also thinking of asking these people to take him to Zhang Tanyan's villa, but later, when he saw them constantly looting supplies, he gave up this plan.

Finally, I was sent here.

After listening to Wang Defa's story, I felt a little scared.

What if this guy tells them about the villa, won’t he go straight to the villa and catch Zhang Tanyan and the others in one fell swoop?

"Fortunately, you are smart. You have met the warden and know the three rules here," I asked.

"I know. No killing, no rape, no leaving alive. What the hell is this place?"

Where?

If nothing unexpected happens, we will all fail here.

To put it nicely, the first two rules are to prevent chaos in the prison.

This third rule obviously has another purpose.

Although I still don’t know what the warden is up to, it’s definitely not a good thing.

Lao Bu lifted up Lao Bu's door curtain and said, "The old man is awake."

Wang Defa and I hurried into the old man's cell.

It was empty inside, full of dust and garbage.

The old man lay on the bed, his eyes slightly narrowed, and he felt like he was about to die at any moment.

I stepped forward and asked:

"Your name?"

"Please excuse me, my surname is Chen. I am an old man of low caliber. I was rude just now."

"You're welcome. My name is Fang Mu, and I'm the team leader now. You should take a rest. We can talk tomorrow if you have anything to say."

Seeing that Mr. Chen's complexion had improved, I finally felt relieved.

Otherwise, if one person dies just after arriving, how can I, as the team leader, put my face aside?

Just as he was about to get up and leave, Old Chen raised his branch-like hand and grabbed him.

"Don't go!"

"What's wrong?"

"You are in danger of bloodshed!"

Old Chen is already paralyzed in bed, but he's still trying to be mysterious.

"Let me feel your pulse."

Having said that, without waiting for my reaction, he interlocked his fingers and pressed my wrist against the bed.

This seemingly soft movement seems to have a thousand pounds of strength.

I suddenly felt sore all over and my entire arm was unable to move as if it had been anesthetized.

Mr. Chen put his fingers on my wrist, and after a moment, he murmured:

"The pulse is floating and weak, and it is a sign of being strong but weak. Although you are strong and healthy, there is a foreign object in your body. Although it can continuously enhance your functions, it is also eroding your vitality."

I was a little confused when I heard this. What was this talking about?

With my current physical condition, I can easily kill a cow.

Wang Defa patted me on the shoulder and consoled me, "This old man is getting confused, don't take it seriously."

"Nonsense!" Elder Chen's eyes suddenly glared, and he almost jumped up from the bed. "I have been practicing medicine for decades, how could I be wrong about this kind of pulse? Although Fang Mu's pulse is vigorous and powerful, it hides a deep and dense dark pulse that is impossible to detect without our attainments. It's like a river with an undercurrent, calm on the surface, but actually turbulent. This thing is constantly accumulating power in Fang Mu's body, waiting for the opportunity. Once it is mature, it will spread with amazing force and quickly occupy every meridian of his. By then, the disease will penetrate into his bones and there will be no way to save him."

The more I listened, the more frightened I became. Mr. Chen sounded so serious in what he said, so he shouldn't be talking nonsense.

Although traditional Chinese medicine is complicated and not as well-founded as Western medicine.

However, we can determine the cause of the disease based on the yin and yang, qi and blood of the human body.

Is there really something wrong with my body?

After thinking about it, could it be the system that suddenly appeared?

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but move closer to Mr. Chen and asked:

"Mr. Chen, what's my problem?"

Wang Defa shouted anxiously, "Oh my, you really believe it."

Old Chen shook his head helplessly.

"I am an old man with no talent. I can only observe its appearance but cannot find its root. However, judging from the pulse, it is probably in your brain."

In the mind?

I was terrified. How could it be like a zombie virus?

Could it be a brain tumor or something?

Like Michael Scofield in Prison Break?

Afterwards, we left Mr. Chen to rest in the cell while we went to look for the young man.

The young man was beaten black and blue, and was huddled in the corner, hugging his knees and crying.

As soon as he saw me, he crawled over to me on his knees and said, "Help me... please... save my fiancée... please..."

The young man's tears, snot and blood smeared all over my pants.

When faced with this kind of person, I just don't want to pay any attention to him.

But when I thought that I would probably need his help in the future, I could only persuade him with kind words.

"Stop crying, fucking man."

After I yelled at him, the young man stopped crying.

"what's your name?"

"Zhao...Yiming."

"Where's your fiancée?"

"Lu...Xiaochan..."

They are indeed a match made in heaven.

"Have you seen the warden before you came here?"

Zhao Yiming thought for a while and nodded.

"Then you should know the three rules here."

"Three rules? I don't know. We were so scared at the time that we had no idea what was going on. We were hiding in the institute and would sometimes come out to look for supplies, but the supplies outside were getting fewer and fewer. We had to run farther away to look for them, and then we were caught by them."

At this time, Lao Bu corrected him: "You are stupid. You are scared outside. How can you be safe here?"

"I don't believe them, they are criminals." The young man said worriedly.

"What's wrong with the prisoner?" Old Bu was a little unhappy when he heard it.

I interrupted them and said, "This used to be a prison, but now there are many survivors like you here. Don't worry, our warden has set three rules. One is no killing, and the other is no rape. So don't worry, your fiancée will be fine."

"Really?"

Zhao Yiming seemed to have found hope, and his eyes brightened.

Who is telling you the truth?

"But she must be very scared... She has been terrified these days..." Zhao Yiming murmured for a while and asked, "What about the third rule?"

Wang Defa replied: "You can't leave alive."

"what!"

But Zhao Yiming got anxious and kept muttering:

"No, no, I have to leave. I have to take Lu Xiaochan away."

"Such a good place, but you can't find it even with a lantern, and you still want to leave? Where are you going?" asked Old Bu.

"I..." Zhao Yiming hesitated to speak.

Old Bu is right. Logically speaking, being able to survive in a place like this in the apocalypse is much safer than being outside.

Unless, Zhao Yiming has a better place to go.

Obviously, he wouldn't tell us.

I didn't press him, but asked Lao Bu: "Can people from other groups be brought over?"

"Yes, can my fiancée be transferred to our group?"

Lao Bu said, "It's not impossible, as long as the leader of that group agrees to release the person. Of course, you, Fang Mu, also need to agree to accept him."

I looked at Zhao Yiming and whispered, "Did you hear that? We can definitely bring your fiancée over to reunite with you, but we are a team now and we can't have any secrets from each other. Is there anything else you haven't told us?"

He frowned, as if he was making a very important decision.

"Well, forget it. If you don't want to talk about it, forget it." Wang Defa winked at me, stretched his waist, stood up and left. "Anyway, I heard that some sexual behaviors are not considered rape--"

Zhao Yiming almost fainted from anger after hearing what Wang Defa said.

"Fang Mu, you must rescue my fiancée... I know there is a safe place where we can avoid this nuclear attack..."

"What? Nuclear attack?"
