Chapter 12: Another Haunted Day

"Tiantian, where is my grandson?"

"Azhou and Axun, did you really kill Tiantian? Are you crazy?"

"What a sin! He is your own son and nephew."

"How can you be so cruel?"

A tear fell from the corner of Chen Zhou's eye, and he endured the constant blame silently.

He is the one who feels sorry for everyone.

"Mom, mom, what's wrong with you? Don't scare us."

Mother Chen fainted again from crying as soon as she woke up.

The calmest person is Shu Yao.

After waking up, he didn't say a word, but sat down beside the tree, staring at the pile of rotting flesh of Chen Tiantian in a daze.

The child she carried for ten months with great difficulty eventually passed away.

Oh my God, don’t you even leave her with a little thought?

"Baby, don't meet mom and dad again in your next life."

That strange feeling came again, and Zhao Nanyu looked at Chen Zhou and Chen's father.

The ones who are truly calm are the father and son, while the one who is pretending to be calm is Shu Yao.

Chen Xun dug a pit under a big tree, and Chen Tiantian's cenotaph was sixty kilometers outside Ancheng.

That night, several people came to Duqiao Town and found the best five-star hotel in the town to stay in.

The apocalypse occurred during the Spring Festival travel rush, so people returning home for the holidays wouldn't stay in hotels. Most people traveling for business or tourism wouldn't come to Duqiao Town because there aren't many attractions there, and if they do, they'll likely choose a hotel with good value for money.

Relatively speaking, it is a slightly safer option.

There were not many zombies in the entire hotel. They chose the top floor, the 8th floor, and blocked the elevator entrance and the corridor with tables, chairs and cabinets in the rooms on the 8th floor.

Zhao Nanyu planned to live in a single room, Shu Yao and her mother would live in a single room, and Chen Xun and the other two would live in a single room.

Looking down from the 8th floor of the hotel, you could occasionally see survivors fleeing on the road in Ancheng, but there was no smell of human life at all in Duqiao Town.

"Knock, knock, knock."

Chen Xun was worried about Zhao Nanyu being alone, so after distributing the food, he returned and searched the room thoroughly.

After confirming that there were no zombies, Zhao Nanyu took out the best hemostatic and anti-inflammatory drugs from the space and waved to him.

When the gauze was removed, both of them were stunned.

What about the hole in the palm?

Where is the wound?

What's going on? The air is completely silent.

From the time they were injured by Shu Yao to now when they were sitting on the bed in the hotel, they slowed down the frames and recalled each scene.

Suddenly, both of their eyes were focused on Zhao Nanyu's index finger.

Is it a vine?

Chen Xun took the hotel's fruit knife and stabbed his thigh. Zhao Nanyu gently stroked the wound with his index finger, and the wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Has she awakened her healing ability again?

No, that's not right. She had also touched Chen Tiantian and Shu Yao, but they didn't react at all.

Zhao Nanyu had a guess that her vine might only be able to heal herself and Chen Xun.

Obviously, Chen Xun had the same idea and silently handed over the fruit knife stained with the blood from his thigh.

"What? What?"

"Brother, are you sure?"

"You are too unkind to women."

"I'm afraid of pain, please be gentle..."

A knife cut through Zhao Nanyu's finger, the wound was only one or two centimeters, and if the bleeding didn't stop, he would die.

One second later.

"As expected of my vine, well done, hahahahaha."

"I'll give you some chicken legs tonight. Oh, I forgot, you don't want to eat. It's okay, your master will help you eat, eat two."

"Oh my, my little darling, I love you so much."

"Two kisses, muah."

Zhao Nanyu's laughter infected Chen Xun, and both of them were in a good mood. This greatly increased their chances of surviving the apocalypse.

Wait, something seems to be wrong. Chen Xun rubbed the water marks left on the surface of his thigh and thought about it. He lowered his head and smelled the fragrance of nature.

"It's not the vine, it's the water inside the vine."

Seeing this, Zhao Nanyu put his index finger close and smelled the fresh air, as if he was in a paradise isolated from the world.

"Is it Chen Tiantian?" Zhao Nanyu pondered.

"That's right. When you bound Tiantian with vines, the vines were squeezed and deformed several times from the powerful external forces needed to suppress Tiantian's continuous evolution and mutation. I think the water in the vines flowed back to your index finger after being squeezed, so it must be the water that can heal our wounds. However, it's best not to use the vine water lightly. I'm worried that it might be its nutrients."

"Okay, I understand."

"How come you are so smart?"

Chen Xun rubbed her silly little head, picked up the bloodstained gauze and bandage on the ground, and wrapped his palm again.

"By the way, let me tell you something else."

"Look at this."

Zhao Nanyu took out something.

Dark gray crystal core?

"Where did this come from?"

"In Chen Tiantian's head."

This was secretly hidden by Zhao Nanyu during the burial.

No one dug his head, she did.

"And these."

As he spoke, he took out a large bag of crystal cores from the space.

Transparent, light purple, dark purple, light blue, a lot of them.

He said that every time she went to collect supplies, she would pull a thick branch and stir around in the zombie debris on the ground, just to collect this thing?

"You're a girl, this is too perverted."

"Do you like this crystal core?"

It’s hard to say for sure, the colors and shapes are quite unique. Little girls like these unique stones.

She slapped him on the forehead and said, "Don't you think my ability has become more powerful? Look, I upgraded it with this."

As he spoke, he became interested and grabbed a handful of food from the package and held it in front of Chen Xun.

"Close your eyes and slowly absorb the energy inside."

One handful after another, a large bag was emptied. Chen Xun felt that the energy in his body was about to explode, and the range of the lightning expanded to nearly ten meters.

The hotel room was pitch black, but the psychic could see as clearly in the middle of the night as in the daytime.

The dark grey crystal core in Chen Xun's hand could faintly reveal its powerful energy under the moonlight.

This is an energy that is completely different from theirs.

"Crackle, crackle."

“Crack, crack.”

Zhao Nanyu lay at the end of the bed, opened a bag of spicy grilled wing-flavored potato chips, ate one bite himself and fed one bite to Chen Xun.

After finishing one pack, I opened another pack of refreshing cucumber flavor. Feeling thirsty, I took out the milk tea machine and milk tea powder and each of us had a cup of Zhao Nanyu's specially blended milk tea.

Sure enough, it’s more enjoyable for the two of them to live happily behind closed doors.

I looked at it from top to bottom and from left to right for a long time, but still couldn't figure out what it was.

Hand it back to Zhao Nanyu and let her take back the space.

He felt that perhaps the mystery would be solved one day in the near future.

Turning his head to the side, he saw the girl taking off her cotton socks and rolling up her trouser legs. Her fair skin caught Chen Xun's eyes.

"What are you doing?"

"Soak your feet."

Looking at the steaming foot bath at his feet, Chen Xun asked in vain.

She threw a Chinese medicine bag into the bucket, and the delicate little feet stepped on the man's rough big toe, which was a very strong visual impact.

Chen Xun: It’s another haunted day. It’s really killing me.
