Apocalyptic disguise

After eating a meal that I don't know whether it was breakfast or lunch, everyone put on their backpacks and weapons and set out on the road.

I don't know if it's because Zhang Ziyao shared his food with Tang Ce and Yang Pei. These two people were obviously more energetic than other people who only had stomach pads to accompany Zhang Ziyao to explore the way ahead.

Since they were already on their way down the mountain last night, most of the mountains here are slope-shaped. When the car rolled down, it went directly to the bottom of the valley, which saved everyone a journey.

There are not many trees at the bottom of the valley, and occasionally there are but most of them are not high.There is a small stream in the middle, which is clear and bright, and everyone follows this stream all the way forward.

"Squeak-"

"Woo--"

Rhubarb, whose head was drenched, was covered with drenched little ash on his head, and ran to Zhang Ziyao's surroundings with small steps.Xiao Hui swooped onto Zhang Ziyao's shoulder and shuddered from top to bottom. The water droplets on his hair flicked and splashed on Zhang Ziyao's and Tang Ce's faces.

Zhang Ziyao stretched out his thumb and forefinger, and stroked its little head.Seeing this, Rhubarb also went around to rub his head in front of Zhang Ziyao, but Zhang Ziyao slapped him on the head and scolded him, "Don't make trouble."

"Heh..." Tang Ce couldn't help laughing when he saw Da Huang stepping in the water and running far ahead, then leaned closer to Zhang Ziyao's face, stretched out his finger and poked Xiao Hui, making him unable to stand upright. Steady, the two little paws waved wildly a few times and finally hugged Tang Ce's outstretched index finger.

"Zhizhi!!——ヽ(*.>Д<)o゜" After standing still, Xiao Hui realized what he had done and immediately let go of Tang Ce's finger, stood up and accused him.

"Tang Ce, are you bored?" Zhang Ziyao cast a sideways glance at Tang Ce.

"But, you are so kind to this little thing, aren't you afraid that I'll be jealous~?" Facing the double warnings from Xiaohui and Zhang Ziyao, Tang Ce had a nice smile on his face, but the words that came out of his mouth had a sour taste.

Well, he really wants to peel and bake this little thing~

Those little sharp claws touched Zi Yao's skin, the soft fur was gently caressed by Zi Yao, and the fluffy little head was kissed by Zi Yao...

In Tang Ce's mind, Xiao Hui's head clicked and fell off.

Xiao Hui's small round eyes rolled around, she felt her body getting colder and colder, she shivered violently, and then slid into Zhang Ziyao's collar.

"It's not a small thing, it's a little gray."

Sensing Tang Ce's eyes staring at his collar that almost turned into reality, Zhang Ziyao silently covered the little gray in his clothes. "Why are you jealous with it?"

......

Since there are fewer detours in the valley than the winding road, even on foot, the few people walked out of the valley for about two hours.

Already out of the valley, the scorching sun is even hotter.Even though it was autumn, a group of people walked on the highway with no end in sight, and they were still a little scorched.

"How long did it take you guys to come?" Zhang Ziyao asked.

"Not sure, it hasn't been long!" Yu Tian scratched his head again, and wiped the sweat from his forehead along the way.

Zhang Ziyao frowned, this answer is too general, not to mention that human senses can be deceptive, just saying that no one has seen the city at all, you can know how unreliable the answer of "not long ago" is. .

"I'll go ahead and have a look first, you guys rest for a while before continuing." Zhang Ziyao summoned Rhubarb, turned his head and said to everyone.

"I'll go with you!"

"No, let me go!"

Yang Pei and Tang Ce spoke at the same time, then glared at each other and looked at Zhang Ziyao.

Xu Qingxiao glanced at the two of them helplessly, and said, "It's not safe for you to be alone, so you should bring another one."

Zhang Ziyao pondered for a while, and said, "That's right." Then he turned his gaze to Ah Yan, who was silent all the time except for a few words with Yu Tian, ​​"You can go with me."

Ah Yan glanced at him, didn't say anything, took off the bag on his back and handed it to Yu Tian, ​​and then got on the horse directly.

Zhang Ziyao was about to get on his horse, but Tang Ce grabbed him.

"Why did you choose to take him?"

"You still have injuries on your hands." Zhang Ziyao answered him with a calm tone, and didn't feel that there was anything wrong at all.

"No, it's not because of this, you don't even have children with you!" Tang Ce pulled Yang Pei who was on the side, and Yang Pei waved Tang Ce's hand away, but his eyes matched the dewy gaze. By Zhang Ziyao.

Zhang Ziyao remained silent, and took a step forward, grabbed Tang Ce's collar and gave him a deep kiss. After letting go, a pair of faint green eyes stared straight into Tang Ce's eyes.

He said, "Be good." Then he turned around and got on the horse, and sat behind Ah Yan.When he left, he touched Yang Pei's head by the way.

The eyes of everyone looking at Tang Ce suddenly became strange...

the other side

There was a reason why Zhang Ziyao pulled Ah Yan on the horse.

When he saw Ah Yan and Tang Ce this morning, it suddenly occurred to him that Ah Yan was the young man he had taken a second look at in Tang Ce's camp bar back then.

Looking at him more at that time was because of his remaining humanity that decisively ended the farce.

Coming out with him alone now is to protect the person who led the farce...

"What exactly do you want to do when you propose to come with us?" Zhang Ziyao said calmly, but went straight to the point.

Ah Yan felt that he had noticed something in the morning, but he didn't expect him to ask directly.After being silent for a while, Ah Yan did not answer Zhang Ziyao's question, but instead asked him: "...Do you know how Tang Ce came to find you?"

Zhang Ziyao couldn't see his expression, so he only guessed and said, "I don't know."

"Then do you want to know?" Ah Yan asked him.

"Do you want me to know?" Zhang Ziyao asked back.

Ah Yan was silent again, Zhang Ziyao didn't speak, and waited patiently.After a while Ah Yan said, "It's better if you don't know."

"Really?" Zhang Ziyao said, "Then can you tell me why you came here?"

"It doesn't make much sense anymore, because I just decided to give up." Ah Yan said.

Zhang Ziyao didn't speak any more, Da Huang ran "cracking", as if he was tireless.After about ten minutes, the endless road was no longer in sight.Under the sun, the gray city seems to be covered with a layer of white veil, which is vague and indistinct.

At this moment, Zhang Ziyao suddenly threw out a sentence.

"You want to kill Tang Ce."

Ah Yan was startled, although he reacted instantly and remained calm.But the slight movement of turning his head at that moment did not escape the eyes of Zhang Ziyao, who was prepared to stare at him closely.

"Why did you give up?" Zhang Ziyao asked indifferently.

It is understandable for him to want to kill Tang Ce. Although Tang Ce didn't say it clearly, it is obviously impossible for such a safe and well-regulated camp to be destroyed in such a short period of time. The reason is that Who is obvious.

Having lost such a favorable living environment, as well as the friends and relatives he might have had, he had too many reasons for revenge.Enough enough, Zhang Ziyao couldn't figure out why he gave up in just one day.

Even though it would be more beneficial for him to give up, Zhang Ziyao felt that there was no reason to give up at all!

Because..." Ah Yan finally couldn't help turning his head, "I found out that there was a reason for him to abandon the camp. "

"I originally thought that he was just doing meaningless things because he was bored. He often does this." A Yan looked at Zhang Ziyao and said, "But today, I found out that there is a reason for all of this. If it is for love People, and abandon the camp, I think I can accept this reason."

"And you, since you don't know anything about it, you're innocent. I won't kill you either."

"..."

Zhang Ziyao suddenly felt that he couldn't look at this young man directly. This kind of inexplicable world view, dividing things one by one and judging black and white, really makes people disagree.

But in the last days, things can still be viewed as a simple black and white model, which, I have to say, is quite admirable.

The avenue leading to the city is close at hand, and a giant signboard with the words "Homeland for the Lost" is erected on the right side of the road, which still looks brand new.

Zhang Ziyao patted Da Huang's back, and Da Huang stopped cleverly.

"You know something about it, in your opinion, is there still a need for us to go in and have a look?" Zhang Ziyao asked.

Ah Yan shook his head, "We'll see when we come over. If we go in too early, it is very likely to attract zombies. Brother Yu and I have walked through the general route here, but let me remind you that there are more than just zombies here." With us."

Not only us?

Zhang Ziyao spun a few times in his mind, and asked, "What do you mean?" But he already understood in his heart that Ah Yan and Yu Tian must have met other people when they were in the city before.

And since it needs to be reminded, there are at least two situations.

One is that they didn't meet each other, and the other party was much stronger than their own.

The second is that the two parties have already met, and the other party is not very friendly, which may even be one of the reasons why Yu Tian and Ah Yan left.

Of course, there is also the situation that Zhang Ziyao least wants to face——

——"There are remaining federal regular soldiers here. Unfortunately, they all seem to have bad tempers because of being abandoned."

"Tsk..." The worst option!
