Ye Yiyi: "System, what kind of joke are you playing? You want me, a weak woman without the strength to truss a chicken, to go to an apocalypse swarming with zombies and save that awesome female...
Chapter 162 Incident
Li Ling doesn't have big ambitions. All she wants is a stable life with Hua Xiangwan. However, Li Ling doesn't want to think about the last stop in her previous life.
Especially with such an unexpected change, for a moment Li Ling didn't know whether her rebirth was a blessing or cruelty.
I clearly thought that I was in control of my future and that I could change everything as long as I worked hard, but I found that I was not the only one who was reborn.
After finally settling the feud with Yang Luoliu, he discovered that everything he knew was beginning to deviate uncontrollably.
Perhaps it was because the last scene before death was too bloody and desperate, or perhaps it was because the person he tried so hard to protect would once again be unable to be protected.
His emotions were so volatile that he blurted out the murmur.
Even though the sound was extremely low, in such a small environment like the car, everyone in the car was a superpower.
Naturally, every word of Li Ling's words fell into the ears of the brother and sister.
Fortunately, although Hua Xiangqing was puzzled by Li Ling's unreasonable words, she did not ask any more questions since she knew that she was doing it for her sister.
Hua Xiangwan just thought that Li Ling was worried about her. After all, this matter seemed very tricky. Her heart warmed, and she didn't say anything. She just put her warm hand on Li Ling's unconsciously stroking hand.
Feeling the warmth on the back of her hand that did not belong to her, Li Ling finally pulled her thoughts away from her memories. She forced herself to give Hua Xiangwan a reassuring smile.
"I think we should send a team to investigate ahead. After all, we can't confront this behemoth head-on."
What Li Ling said was obviously correct. Although the people sent out to investigate would inevitably be in danger, for Li Ling, no one's safety was more important than Hua Xiangwan's.
So without waiting for Hua Xiangwan to refuse, Li Ling picked up the walkie-talkie and started giving orders.
Seeing that Li Ling had already given the order, Hua Xiangwan opened her mouth but said nothing in the end.
Hua Xiangqing naturally wouldn't say anything. After all, even if Li Ling didn't say anything, he would do the same.
Since we didn't talk about anything off topic afterwards, we were just discussing several ways to avoid the giant tree in case we really encountered it.
On the other side, there was complete silence in Yang Luoliu's car and Li Yue's car.
Normally, no matter how cold Yang Luoliu was, she would not be so speechless. Moreover, with Li Yue in the car, it was impossible for the whole car to be quiet.
But now it was quiet, extremely quiet, or rather the entire convoy was quiet, except for the sounds of the cars and the biting cold winter wind.
There was no sound of any conversation.
Yes, after much difficulty, we have a safe place to live in this desperate apocalypse, but because of this sudden giant tree, everyone has to give up their relatively comfortable place to live and migrate again.
The road ahead is now as dark as tonight. I can’t see what the future holds, nor do I know what the final outcome will be.
Ye Yiyi obviously had a lot of questions she wanted to ask, but Li Wanwan and Zhong Xiaolu were in the car, so she couldn't open her mouth.
The system that could provide space fell asleep again. Ye Yiyi could only watch with all her questions as the darkness in the distance gradually faded away, revealing bits and pieces of white.
Although this night was rushed, fortunately there was no danger along the way. Although there was an occasional small wave of zombies, they were eliminated by the psychics who cleared the way before they could take action.
So the journey was extremely safe. It was not until the sky was bright that the people who had been walking stopped.
Although the world after the darkness faded was dangerous, it was still within an acceptable range. After all, they had been traveling all night, and the reconnaissance team leading the way had not brought back any bad news.
We are all human beings, not zombies or machines, and we also need to rest and eat, so Hua Xiangqing gave the order to rest and have breakfast before continuing.
Looking at the vehicle in front that had not moved for the time being, Yang Luoliu's tense nerves finally relaxed.
Turning his head to look at Ye Yiyi who was sticking her head out beside him, a faint smile finally appeared at the corners of his mouth that had been tense all the time.
"Yiyi."
After hearing what Yang Luoliu said, Li Wanwan and Zhong Xiaolu in the back seat looked at each other and got out of the car at the same time in tacit understanding. After all, they had been sitting in the car all night and they really needed to get out and get some fresh air.
The most important thing is that these two people obviously had a lot to say last night, but in the end they said nothing. You don’t have to guess why, so the two of them tacitly agreed not to act as light bulbs anymore.
However, after Li Wanwan and Zhong Xiaolu got off the car, Yang Luoliu and Ye Yiyi didn't say much.
Looking at the people in front of the car window who were setting up fires and cooking breakfast one after another, Ye Yiyi silently withdrew her gaze when she heard Yang Luoliu's voice beside her.
"Sister, did you have that thing in your previous life?"
When Ye Yiyi said these words, her tone was unusually tired.
Yang Luoliu felt distressed after hearing this. Then Yang Luoliu looked up at the system which showed no signs of waking up all night and shook his head.
"No, there was no such thing at this time in my previous life."
Hearing Yang Luoliu say this, Ye Yiyi had a bad feeling in her heart. She felt that it was because of her that this thing came into being.
Yang Luoliu seemed to see what Ye Yiyi was thinking, and spoke quickly to prevent her from overthinking.
"Now is not the time to talk about this. Don't worry, there will always be a way. Yiyi, do you want to get some sleep first? You haven't slept all night with me."
Looking at Yang Luoliu who appeared extremely calm, Ye Yiyi felt a little relieved, but her body was indeed very tired.
Although he wanted to accompany Yang Luoliu, he was more afraid of sudden danger that Yang Luoliu would not be able to deal with, so he didn't sleep much that night.
Ye Yiyi had no appetite now, so she decided to follow Yang Luoliu's advice and take a nap.
Just as I was about to go to sleep, Zhong Xiaolu knocked on the window.
Looking at Ye Yiyi who was obviously tired, Zhong Xiaolu's eyes flashed with heartache.
"Do you want to go to the back and rest? Captain Yang was driving last night. You can rest and we'll drive for the rest of the journey."
Neither of them refused Zhong Xiaolu's words. After being together for such a long time, they would not be shy, not to mention that they were really tired.
So Yang Luoliu and Ye Yiyi both nodded, then got out of the car and sat in the back seat.
As soon as the two of them sat down, Li Wanwan brought out the breakfast food and handed it to them.
"We can only eat in the car. We have to leave."
The group did not find it strange that they could only rest for a while, and no one complained. After all, they were not out of danger yet, and it would be strange to rest all the time.
But Ye Yiyi did not take the food from Li Wanwan's hand, but just tiredly pushed it away and spoke.
"Sister Wanwan, I'm a little tired. Let me rest first."
Yang Luoliu listened with some heartache and took the two copies from Li Wanwan's hands.
"I'm keeping it now. You drive carefully. I'll give it to Yiyi later."
Before she could finish her words, she felt a weight on her shoulders. It turned out that Ye Yiyi leaned her head towards her. At the same time, the car behind them started honking, urging them to drive faster.
Seeing this, Li Wanwan didn't hesitate any longer. She gave three servings of breakfast to Yang Luoliu and Zhong Xiaolu and started the car.
After quickly finishing his meal, Yang Luoliu took Ye Yiyi into his arms to make her more comfortable, and then he leaned against the backrest and fell asleep.
Although Yang Luoliu appears to be very calm on the surface, he is actually very unsure inside. After all, this is something he has no memory of.
And the vines with absolute power constantly remind Yang Luoliu that this world is more dangerous than he imagined.
It was so dangerous that he really had no way to protect Ye Yiyi.
Even with a system, it wouldn't work. Thinking of this, Yang Luoliu closed his eyes and rested, unconsciously stroking Ye Yiyi's head. For a moment, he didn't know what she was thinking.
Ye Yiyi was probably really tired. After all, she hadn't had a good rest for two days. Even though her current situation was indeed dangerous, having Yang Luoliu by her side allowed her to fall into a deep sleep with peace of mind.
When she regained consciousness, Ye Yiyi noticed that her ears were extremely noisy, as if she was in a busy city, with screams and fighting sounds endless.
And she was being held tightly in Yang Luoliu's arms. Ye Yiyi was not a fool. She had just woken up from a deep sleep, and her dizzy head became clear at this moment.
After just a slight movement, Ye Yiyi felt the warm arms protecting her loosen, allowing her to sit up. At the same time, she heard Yang Luoliu's cold voice.
"Awake? Did you have a good rest?"
But this time Ye Yiyi did not answer Yang Luoliu's question, because the surroundings were too chaotic. Zhong Xiaolu was not in the passenger seat, but was looking out the window.
I don’t know when the zombies surrounded us. Although I couldn’t see the number of zombies from the car, I knew there were a lot of them as they kept falling one after another.
No one knew when they surrounded the car, but Zhong Xiaolu, who was supposed to be sitting in the passenger seat, was cleaning up the zombies around the car.
Of course, I couldn't see clearly where she was, but the vines came from the roof of the car, so I knew where Zhong Xiaolu was without thinking.
Although the convoy was still moving forward, it was slowing down at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Ye Yiyi was stunned for just a moment and had no time to ask what was going on. She opened the car door and got out, using the leverage to stand on the roof.
Yang Luoliu also came up at the same time. It was only then that Ye Yiyi saw clearly that except for the driver and those who really had no fighting ability, everyone who was capable had come out to fight.
Looking up again, I saw many zombies standing on the ruins of the building. I didn't know where they came from, it was as if they appeared out of thin air.
It goes without saying that their target is the convoy trapped on the isolated island. No matter how you look at it now, the convoy looks like lambs to be slaughtered by zombies.
Looking at this scene, Ye Yiyi raised her hand to block the zombies that were about to pounce on her before speaking.
"How long?"
Although it was a nonsensical sentence, both people in the car knew what Ye Yiyi was asking. Zhong Xiaolu didn't have the energy to answer, after all, she was the one who had been struggling all the way.
"The half hour you slept in was already half an hour."
These words were said by Yang Luoliu, her voice cold and with a barely perceptible nervousness. She didn't want to wake Ye Yiyi up out of her own selfish reasons, and in this environment, it was indeed not very authentic for her to do so.
But she couldn't bear to wake Ye Yiyi up, even though she would be criticized for being selfish. But Yang Luoliu was afraid that if the giant vine appeared again, what would happen to Ye Yiyi without the system.
So it’s better to be selfish, as long as Yiyi is safe.
