Chapter 47: A Short Rest

He Chen didn't answer, and hugged him directly.

Xiang Jiayun let go of all his strength and leaned on He Chen's shoulder, with a pair of strong arms around his waist and back, allowing him to show his fragility without reservation.

so tired.In fact, his condition has been getting worse and worse since yesterday. After pretending for so long, he really has no extra strength.Now he just wants to stay in He Chen's arms forever, and don't get up again until the zombies or humans are extinct.

Neither of them spoke, words would only appear superfluous at this time.

Xiang Jiayun leaned quietly in the warm embrace for a long time, until he was drowsy when he heard He Chen's voice: "Sleep."

He closed his eyes in relief, and before the last trace of soberness disappeared, he realized that he was being hugged, and the sound of steady footsteps resounded on the long street.

**

When he woke up again, his head was aching, and the softness under his body made him forget the time for a moment.I thought I was lying on the bed at home and passed out the night before, and now I have a hangover and a headache, but I have to get up and go to work immediately.

He opened his eyes in a little anxiety. The strange room confused him for a moment, and a boy's voice suddenly sounded not far away: "Brother Xiang, you finally woke up. You have been asleep for a long time, and it is almost noon."

After a moment of slow discernment in his mind, he finally understood.Turning around, he saw Liu Yao sitting on the sofa. The young man was eating canned food quietly, and said to him during the eating space: "The sun is too strong, Brother Zhuang and the others discussed it. Let's rest in the ancient town for a day first. Brother He also agreed."

The curtains were drawn tightly so that no light could come in.Xiang Jiayun sat up with the sheets propped up, and her strength recovered a little, much better than yesterday.

"Where are you Brother He and Xia Shuya?" He asked.

The room was not small, with a bed, two sofas, and a separate bathroom, but at this time there were only myself and the boy here.

"Going out to patrol," Liu Yao put down the can, stood up and stretched, "We're going to search the entire ancient town to see if there are any supplies or potential safety hazards."

Xiang Jiayun remembered the tourist bus in the parking lot and nodded.

"Brother He asked me to stay and watch over you, but since Brother Xiang is awake...well, can I go down and play for half an hour at most." The young man seemed to be bargaining with his brother, and brazenly launched a wave at him. Smile attack.

Although he was still thinking about playing at this time, he was really heartless, but Xiang Jiayun was not a serious person.If he is in good health now, I'm afraid he will go out with Liu Yao to go wild.

"Go, go, play with you." He waved his hand and started to chase people away.

The young man became excited instantly, took the crowbar and was about to leave, before going out, he turned around and said to him, "Oh yes, there is a water storage tank on the roof, and Brother Zhuang distributed a lot of rainwater from before, and Brother He gave it to him." You moved back, and it's in the bathroom. I can't help you take a shower, so be careful not to fall!"

Xiang Jiayun was stunned, "I see."

Liu Yao was still not at ease, as if he had a task ahead of him, he became rambling: "After I go out, you remember to lock the door behind you. If you have something to do, open the window and call me. I won't run far."

He couldn't bear to hear it anymore, raised his eyebrows and said, "It's all taught by your Brother He?"

The young man smiled and hurried out.

Xiang Jiajun was stunned for a while, couldn't help but smile a little, and honestly went to lock the door first.

His legs were still a little sore, reminding him of when the zombies just broke out, when he removed the plaster cast and couldn't walk on his left leg.Right now his legs were like that, extremely stiff, and they eased up as he moved into the bathroom, leaning against the wall.

There are two buckets in the bathroom and a pool of fresh water in the bathtub.

Some time ago, there was continuous rain, and the people at the base received a lot of rainwater. Zhuang Fan and the others simply filtered and purified the water source.They stored the purified water in large barrels, and they kept carrying it in trucks even after the base was disbanded.

Xiang Jiayun bent down to touch the water in the bathtub, it was still slightly warm, as if it had been exposed to the sun.There are a few clean clothes stacked on the side, which should also be prepared for him.

He extravagantly felt restless, took a bath, put on clean clothes and walked out of the bathroom.

As soon as he walked out, he heard a knock on the door. He didn't know how long it had been ringing.It should be that Liu Yao came back. Regardless of his hair still dripping, he went to open the door first.

However, Tian Man was standing outside the door. Seeing him wet, he was stunned for a moment. After recovering, he said, "Are you and He Chen raising pets?"

Xiang Jiayun wanted to close the door directly, but was shocked after hearing this.When they got off the car yesterday, it was inconvenient to carry the mice, so they had to stay in the car, but they also fed them.I thought I would only stay in the ancient town for one night, but Zhuang Fan decided to rest here, and now the mouse must have gone crazy again.

He thought about it quickly, and replied vaguely: "What's wrong with it?"

Tian Man nodded, "It's really raised by you. Xiao Zhang told me that when I was guarding the car, I heard noises in your car. It sounded like a living thing... Then why did you lie before?"

"Aren't you afraid that you won't allow it?" Xiang Jiayun raised the corner of his mouth.

"What exactly are you raising?"

He lied without changing his face and heartbeat: "Puppy Mouse."

The woman was fooled once, and this time she couldn't believe it easily, but she didn't expose it on the spot, but gave him a meaningful look, "As long as you have the ability to support yourself, it's none of our business."

After saying thank you to Jiayun, just as she was about to close the door, Tian Man blocked the door with her hand, "Wait a minute."

He was a little impatient, "What's the matter?"

"A small matter, out of personal curiosity," the neat and capable woman asked in a low voice with an interested gossip expression on her face, "Why did Hou Zhicheng provoke you yesterday?"

"Are you here to avenge him?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Tian Man sneered, "I think too much brother. Forget it, go in, see you later."

Tian Man withdrew his hand, nodded at him and turned around gracefully.But at the same time, the two caught a glimpse of a passing figure, quickly turned around the corridor and slipped away.

"Who?" Xiang Jiayun couldn't see clearly.

Instead, Tian Man turned around and told him generously, "That attendant with glasses next to Hou Zhicheng."

When Xiang Jiayun recalled that person, he only had the impression of the word "idiot" in his memory.Hou Zhicheng was injured, but this man secretly eavesdropped on what they were saying, and he didn't know what he was planning.

"Are they on good terms?" He asked Tian Man.

The woman shrugged, "All the way."

A head popped out from the stairs, Liu Yao happened to see the two talking, so he hurried over and pushed Tian Man out, "Sister Tian, ​​what's the matter?"

Tian Man didn't mind the boy's recklessness either, so he just smiled and waved, then turned and left.

Before he had gone far, Liu Yao lost his temper, turned around and drove Xiang Jiayun into the room: "Brother Xiang, why are you opening the door for others casually! If anything happens, Brother He will beat me up!"

"What are you talking about..." Xiang Jiayun was forced to step back, watching the young man act cautiously like a bodyguard, and said speechlessly, "Aren't you afraid that I'll beat you up? My beating is more painful than your Brother He's beating."

Liu Yao calmed down a lot in an instant, and changed the subject: "Brother He said they won't be back until evening, so you can eat something by yourself."

"Going for so long?" He was a little surprised, the heat wave outside was so hot that even a normal person might not be able to bear it.

"Oh, there are so many shops in the ancient town," Liu Yao gave him a knowing look, "Brother Zhuang means to loot them all."

Very good, the robbers gathered together, Zhuang Fan should have a common language with Mr. He.

Xiang Jiayun picked up the backpack, took out the compressed biscuits inside, looked at the package calmly for a while, and then resignedly opened it.

Taking advantage of his eating time, Liu Yao walked to the window, raised the curtain and looked out seriously, as if he was looking for something.

He guessed right away, "Xia Shuya is also in the team going out?"

The boy nodded in shame.

Xiang Jiayun could tell that Xia Shuya and Liu Yao were actually not the same kind of people.The girl is capable and ambitious, and after killing her relatives, her character will only become stronger.As for Liu Yao, this child... is really lacking in mind, and it is difficult to survive in the apocalypse.The two minors don't know whether they will stay together forever or go further and further apart.

"Oh, that's right!" Liu Yao suddenly remembered something, turned around and said, "I just saw Hou Zhicheng downstairs, wearing a mask, and was going to find Brother Zhuang."

"If you file a complaint, just sue, at worst, get out of here." After he finished speaking, he stuffed a mouthful of biscuits into his mouth, hypnotizing himself that it was a pack of chocolates.However, his mouth was filled with dry and crumbled biscuit crumbs, which completely failed his hypnosis.

Liu Yao handed him a bottle of water in a doggy manner, and said awkwardly, "If you want to leave, where are you going?"

He glanced at the young man in surprise, and joked after drinking half a bottle of water: "Going to City C, are you reluctant to part with us?"

"Isn't it...it's hard to meet such nice people as you and Brother He?" Liu Yao grinned, "I don't dislike us as children."

Xiang Jiajun remembered the bedtime story Mr. He told, and only patted the boy on the shoulder, "Children will grow up too."

After speaking, he also got up and walked to the window, carefully hiding in the dark, looking out through the gap in the curtain.

Their room was on the third floor, barely able to see the nearby street view.He couldn't help but also searched, trying to find Mr. He, but he couldn't succeed after staring for a long time.

When I turned my head, I found that Liu Yao was already sitting on the sofa, flipping through a high school English exercise book boredly.

The young man noticed his gaze, raised his head, and shook the teaching materials in his hand, "I left in a hurry, I only brought this to relieve my boredom."

Xiang Jiajun was shocked by the student's ardent heart, and he took a while to say: "I'm going to the parking lot after dark. If He Shenhui comes back by then, please tell him."

Liu Yao nodded in response, and then asked, "What are you doing in the parking lot?"

He thought that he had already told Tian Man about the mouse, so he stopped hiding it from Liu Yao, organized his words, and replied, "Go get the pet."

The man with glasses probably overheard the conversation between him and Tian Man just now. Hou Zhicheng and his group are despicable and shameless, so it is uncertain what they will do.In case the mouse was snatched away and caused some bad effects, he still had to go to the parking lot to keep the bomb by his side to be safest.
