The water mist blurred the sky and the earth, and the rain was continuous, and the translucent silk and satin fluttered in the strong wind.

In the rain curtain in the distance, the black shadow that disappeared on the slope reappeared on the downhill slope. He seemed to have stumbled and rolled down from above. The rain covered his appearance of turning down the slope, so he seemed to disappear suddenly.

He stood up with difficulty, staggered, as if being chased by something, he limped forward.

Another animal-shaped black figure appeared on the slope. It stood on all fours and had a strong build. It looked like a brown bear.

The brown bear immediately locked onto the only moving black figure, roared silently, and rushed towards the humans below.

The rain-soaked clothes dragged heavily on his body, every step was like running in a swamp, with the whistling wind in his ears, Cheng Bai wiped off the water stains on his face indiscriminately, trying hard to see the direction of escape.He blinked, as if seeing some hope, his eyes lit up all of a sudden, someone!

"help me!"

Most of the cry for help was cut off by the rain, and only a faint voice remained in Ruan Jingzhuo's ears.Ruan Jingzhuo looked up and saw the short human running towards him waving, and the brown bear chasing after him.

The roar of the brown bear was getting closer, Cheng Bai gritted his teeth and ran as fast as possible, his limping left leg moved a lot, but the speed didn't drop at all.

The sharp claws tore through the rain curtain, Cheng Bai felt a sharp wind brushing against his ears, his neck was hot, it was the temperature of fresh blood, and the snort that was chasing after him suddenly went away.

Cheng Bai didn't dare to look at it, so he breathed a sigh of relief and continued to run forward.Ruan Jingzhuo retracted the hand that threw the lightsaber, and before the brown bear got angry, he picked up Cheng Bai and ran wildly.

The lightsaber pierced the brown bear's sole, and the pain completely enraged the violent beast. The brown bear threw off the lightsaber and chased the two with a roar.

The super high speed of the advanced infected was fully reflected at this time. Cheng Bai was held by the collar with a blank face, his feet were off the ground, and the scenery went backwards crazily, forming a phantom.

No matter how hard the brown bear chased, it couldn't catch up to Ruan Jingzhuo. Under the cover of the heavy rain, the two figures disappeared from the brown bear's sight. It roared a few times in place, and wandered unwillingly.

After going around several times to ensure that the brown bear was shaken off, Ruan Jingzhuo threw Cheng Bai into the cave.

"Ouch!" Cheng Bai fell down, his brows and eyes wrinkled.

After throwing Cheng Bai away, Ruan Jingzhuo went straight to put on the coat and pants hanging on the tree branch, leaving Cheng Bai with a cold back.From the moment he entered the cave, Cheng Bai felt a gloomy gaze. He turned his head and met a pair of scarlet eyes in the darkness.

"Zom... Zombie?!" Just after leaving the wolf's den and entering the tiger's den, Cheng Bai's face turned pale, and he couldn't speak well.He thought he would be bitten to death by the zombie, but after a long time, the red-eyed zombie remained motionless.

Cheng Bai had never seen a red-eyed zombie before, and that call was entirely a conditioned reflex, could it be that he misunderstood it?Cheng Bai looked at Ruan Jingzhuo, who was indifferent, feeling a little embarrassed. He was about to apologize, but Ruan Jingzhuo turned his head, and his bright purple pupils were very distinct under the cave.

He scratched his head, and asked nonchalantly, "Are you people or zombies?"

Zombies?

Ruan Jingzhuo said, "You mean the infected?"

It was only then that Ruan Jingzhuo saw Cheng Bai's appearance clearly. He was a boy of twelve or thirteen years old, wearing a white back shirt, with sparse hair like a bald head, with a few scratches on his face, but his eyes were lively. Just very energetic.

He and Ruan Jingzhuo saw a different kind of human being on his brain, and always felt that he was a child who lived in the last century.

Ruan Jingzhuo looked down at Cheng Bai, making an adult's ugly face: "Little rascal, where did you come from?"

Cheng Bai has a pure heart, and he has never seen other human beings be kind, so he doesn't care about Ruan Jingzhuo's attitude, and he shakes his bottom all at once.

"I lived in a deserted laboratory with my uncle, grandma and aunt. My uncle would go out every day to find food for us. My aunt was in poor health and could only lie on the bed. My grandmother took care of my aunt at home."

Cheng Bai sat on the stone steps, his feet wobbling, completely unaware of the situation he was in.

"Uncle sometimes doesn't come back for several days, saying that he is looking for other living humans, but he has never found them after so many years. I thought there were only four of us in the world, but I didn't expect there to be any. Others."

Listening to Cheng Bai's narration, Ruan Jingzhuo's thoughts surged.

The scope of human beings is still too small, the cave is in the south, and the ninth base is in the west. Except for the thin route linking the two sides on the huge map, there are unexplored areas all around.He was walking in a part of the unexplored area. The distance between the two safe areas was not too close. Because the map was too simple, they took a lot of detours, and they only completed one-third of the journey today.

There are too many things for human beings to do, such as operating safe zones, exploring unknown areas, fighting against the infected, and rescuing the wandering humans... The endless tasks in the brain, the new bases that increase every year, are not all human civilizations Is there a sign of a crisis?

Fortunately, he thought that human beings had come out of the darkest moment and were flourishing.At this moment, Ruan Jingzhuo vaguely saw a small hole in the great crisis of civilization.

After Cheng Bai finished speaking, he suddenly remembered that the two people in front of him didn't seem to have explained their identities to him. He said embarrassedly: "But you should be human beings, zombies can't talk."

"Oh—" Wu Qing, who was hiding in the darkness, roared at the right time, and immediately stunned Cheng Bai.

"He he he..."

Ruan Jingzhuo pressed Cheng Bai and pointed at Wu Qing's hand, and said inscrutably, "He is an artificially infected person."

Cheng Bai: "?"

"Humans are fighting against the infected... Oh yes, it's the zombies you mentioned. In addition to fighting against the infected, we have established a lot of safe zones, and the surviving humans are all inside, with a stable life and security. The human-shaped weapon can effectively fight against the infected. And I am a modified person." Ruan Jingzhuo relied on Cheng Bai's ignorance, and said nonsense, "My eyes, skin, and even claws and teeth are all acquired. Yes, the bodily functions are much stronger than normal humans."

"Wow!" Cheng Bai didn't have the slightest doubt, he opened his mouth wide and blushed, "No wonder you can run faster than a brown bear!"

"For reformed people like us, there are still many safe zones. We have given everything for human survival. I thought that all human beings have been searched and rescued..." Ruan Jingzhuo showed a trace of appropriate annoyance, "I didn't expect that there are still people living outside. of."

Cheng Bai nodded. A child's attention is easily diverted. He suddenly became interested in Ruan Jingzhuo's exposed blue-gray arm. He wanted to reach out to touch it but was stared back by Ruan Jingzhuo.

He turned his gaze to the red-eyed corpse king who was hiding in the dark again, wanted to take a look but was a bit afraid, so he could only hint to Ruan Jingzhuo: "Will he bite people?"

"meeting."

Cheng Bai: "..."

Probably because Cheng Bai's gaze was too scorching, Wu Qing walked out and sat next to Ruan Jingzhuo.

"Ah!" Cheng Bai quickly covered his eyes with his hands after seeing Wu Qing clearly, but the gap between his fingers was wide. It was the same as if he didn't cover it. He said shyly, "Why isn't he wearing clothes?"

Wu Qing is not even considered a human being, and has no sense of shame at all. Ruan Jingzhuo himself is a man who thinks it's no big deal if he doesn't wear clothes, but there is an extra child here, so he has to pay attention to politeness.

Ruan Jingzhuo had no choice but to get up to get the remaining lining on the branch, leaving Cheng Bai and Wu Qing facing each other on the stone steps.It didn't feel much to be separated by a person, and when they met each other, those scarlet and treacherous eyes were completely unstopped, and fell greedily on Cheng Bai's small face.

There was no warmth in Wu Qing's eyes, Cheng Bai felt as if he was being targeted by a poisonous snake, and shivered involuntarily.He didn't dare to wait any longer, he jumped down the stone steps and followed Ruan Jingzhuo's butt with a limp leg.

Ruan Jingzhuo brought the clothes and ordered without emotion: "Put it on."

"Woo—" Wu Qing refused without emotion.

Ruan Jingzhuo narrowed his eyes, folded the lining into a circle, and put it on his head quickly before Wu Qing could react.

Wu Qing wanted to shrink her neck, but was restrained by the circle of her clothes, so she could only howl in vain, her nails popped out of the sheath under Cheng Bai's horrified gaze, and Ruan Jingzhuo had ten scratches on his arm in an instant.

"He...you..." Cheng Bai hid behind Ruan Jingzhuo, pointing at his injured arm, so frightened that he couldn't even speak clearly.

Ruan Jingzhuo had already seen the strangeness, but Wu Qing managed to save his strength and didn't scratch his entire arm, so he naturally wouldn't take such a small injury or pain seriously.Ruan Jingzhuo grabbed Wu Qing's dangling hand and stuffed it into a sleeve.

"Aw... woo woo!" Wu Qing showed ferocious fangs, and Ruan Jingzhuo stuffed her mouth into a thick long branch just as she opened her mouth halfway.

"It's too noisy." Ruan Jingzhuo said indifferently, tucked his other hand into the sleeve, pulled the hem, and the clothes were finished.As soon as she let go, Wu Qing jumped up like a spring, and quickly moved away from Ruan Jingzhuo.

Cheng Bai eagerly followed Ruan Jingzhuo who continued to look for his pants, and asked worriedly, "Is your arm okay?"

Ruan Jingzhuo shook his pants flat, and heard the words foolishly: "The artificially-made infected people will not carry the infection virus, it's fine."

"Oh." Cheng Bai nodded half-understanding, and saw Ruan Jingzhuo hooking his hand at him.

Ruan Jingzhuo stuffed a lightsaber into Cheng Bai's hand, and pouted towards the entrance of the cave: "You stop there, don't let him escape."

"Ow!"

Another flutter.

The weather in the apocalypse is changeable, and the moment the rainstorm stops, the dark clouds suddenly dissipate, and the sun quickly occupies the sky, vowing to evaporate the proof after the rain.

Ruan Jingzhuo acted as a drying rack by himself, standing under the sun to expose himself to the sun, while Wu Qing hid in the cave and was unwilling to come out, only showing a pair of eyes.Cheng Bai circled Ruan Jingzhuo like a curious baby, popping up a question from time to time.

"What does it look like in the hole?"

Ruan Jingzhuo didn't type a word in the draft, and just opened his mouth: "It's very prosperous, with many buildings and people. The streets are full of children your age. It's surrounded by a city wall, which is very high."

"How tall is it?"

"Probably a hundred of me."

"Wow!" Cheng Bai's cheeks flushed with excitement, as if he had already seen the solemn and tall city wall.

"Then can we go to the safe zone right away?"

Ruan Jingzhuo's relaxed expression froze, and he looked down at Cheng Bai.

Cheng Bai raised his head, his eyes were bright, like the dazzling sunlight reflected on the clear water, pure joy.

Ruan Jingzhuo said: "No."

Cheng Bai didn't expect Ruan Jingzhuo to refuse, he was stunned for a moment, and finally asked in a low voice, "Why?"

Cheng Bai carefully observed Ruan Jingzhuo, like a small animal who was afraid of being rejected but couldn't help but hope, his eyes were full of longing and obsession with the safe zone, Ruan Jingzhuo suddenly couldn't speak too much.

"...My communicator is broken, and it will take a while to return to the safe zone."

Cheng Bai's eyes lit up again.
