I Build a City in the Apocalypse

Xu Bai was reborn. She returned to ten years ago, to the fifth day after the apocalypse began. In this life, she didn't awaken any abilities; instead, she was bound to a system.

With ten ...

Chapter 128 Xu Bai and I are just friends

"The new residents of Dawn City have found their lost children. What a joyful occasion!"

Ever since scientific researchers developed the network site device, Xu Bai would place the site device wherever he went, so they could still refresh the network in Rongcheng, but the network would be slightly laggy.

"Hey, it's Xu Xiaoxiao." Shi Qinghe refreshed the page again and saw that someone had uploaded a photo.

In the photo, a man and a woman are holding Xu Xiaoxiao, and there is another child standing beside them.

Shi Qinghe always remembered the little boy Xu Xiaoxiao's small red bag of "food", so she was deeply impressed by him and immediately recognized that the person in the photo was Xu Xiaoxiao.

"I always thought Xu Xiaoxiao was raised by his grandfather, but it turns out he's a left-behind child."

"I haven't seen Xu Xiaoxiao mention his parents either. Captain Lin, have you mentioned him?"

Captain Lin shook his head. Although he lived with Xu Xiaoxiao, the child usually talked to him about food, what he played with Jiao Yangyang, and what work he helped Jiao Yangyang with. He didn't show any sign of missing his parents.

As a result, Captain Lin used to think that Xu Xiaoxiao's parents died early and was raised by his grandfather. Captain Lin didn't want to poke at the child's wounds, so he never asked.

"You think so much. It's great that you can find your biological parents now. What a fate."

After all, in the end times, not everyone can meet their family again.

Captain Lin couldn't understand Shi Qinghe's reaction.

"Isn't it because the child standing next to him looks terrified? It seems that Xu Xiaoxiao should be considered this child's older brother. Seeing his brother so scared, could it be that the two brothers are not getting along?"

Shi Qinghe muttered to herself, and was amused by her own imagination.

Xu Bai, who was drinking water nearby, paused and glanced at Shi Qinghe: "There's something wrong with this kid Xu Xiaoxiao."

"Ah?" Shi Qinghe was shocked, and he and several members of Team Lin also looked up at Xu Bai.

"Just observe carefully and get along with each other normally."

After Xu Xiaoxiao entered Dawn City, the system told her that Xu Xiaoxiao was not human, but the child had always been normal and lived actively like a human being. What reason did she have not to let Xu Xiaoxiao stay in Dawn City?

Besides, she wondered how many people like her there were.

"What could be wrong with him?" Shi Qinghe whispered as she approached Ji Heng, but was met with Ji Heng's disdain. "Xu Bai said it was nothing, so there's no need to worry about it."

"Understand?"

"Does Xu Bai know that you are so boring?"

Ji Heng turned to look at Shi Qinghe, narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked Shi Qinghe up and down. His scalp felt numb when he looked at him.

"Look...what, is there something wrong with me? No, you're not going to pester me and not tell me, are you? I already know everything about you guys?"

Ji Heng felt a little puzzled. "What's going on between us? What are you thinking about? Xu Bai and I are just friends, understand?"

"I saw you two hugging each other last time. You were almost scratched by a zombie on the way back from South City last time."

Ji Heng: “…”

"You're mistaken. She was just checking if I had any wounds."

Ji Heng remembered that when Xu Bai approached him, her weak breathing sprayed on his neck. Ji Heng felt a little uncomfortable and left with a gloomy face.

Shi Qinghe touched her head in confusion, "Did I really see it wrong? Oh my god, this is a huge misunderstanding. Fortunately, I didn't say anything I shouldn't have said to Xu Bai."

Shi Qinghe glanced at Xu Bai who was resting with his eyes closed against the car, and ran to chase Ji Heng with a guilty conscience.

After a good rest, Xu Bai and his companions decided to head towards the center of Rongcheng.

The center of a city's economic development is often where the most zombies are.

When Xu Bai and his group arrived at the city center, they found that everything was quiet and no zombies appeared. Even the ground looked like someone was cleaning it every day. It was so clean that it was eerie.

"I don't sense any zombies nearby."

"The mutant animals didn't sense it either."

In this case, either there are really no zombies, or the zombies' supernatural levels are higher than Xu Bai's, so high that they can crush him and he will not be discovered.

"be safe."

Even though there were no zombies, Xu Bai still said something out of habit.

They walked forward for several blocks and didn't see any zombies.

"This place is so quiet, it's not right." Shi Qinghe tightly gripped the dagger tied to his waist.

This dagger was snatched from Xu Bai. He rarely used it, but when he was nervous, he couldn't help but hold it to give himself a lot of confidence.

"Zombies are coming!"

In Xu Bai's sea of ​​consciousness, groups of zombie icons were moving towards them madly. As soon as she finished speaking, zombies surrounded them.

The zombies were very orderly. Even though they wanted to pounce on them and bite them, they still stood straight and surrounded them in a circle.

There was a zombie being carried in a sedan chair by other zombies and placed right in the center of them.

Xu Bai and his companions stood back to back, looking vigilantly at the zombie sitting in the middle.

The zombie was half paralyzed, leaning on the sedan with one hand and holding a blood-stained bowl in the other. The bowl was made of transparent glass, and one could clearly see the zombie drinking the blood in the bowl. The zombies standing around looked at the bowl with a little blood still on it with longing eyes.

But none of the zombies standing by dared to rush forward and snatch it.

The sitting zombie threw the bowl at the zombie closest to him. The zombie was splashed with a little blood, but he didn't make a fuss. He lowered his head and licked the blood off the bowl and his clothes.

The glass bowl is cleaner after licking than after washing.

"These zombies are probably above level four?" Shi Qinghe turned his head slightly and spoke in a low voice. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that there were zombies in front of him staring at him fiercely, occasionally baring their teeth at him and making gestures with their hands as if to grab him.

Shi Qinghe: "..."

Are these sentient zombies? !

“Ahhh…”

Led by the zombie in the center, it howled at them, and then the zombies that had originally surrounded them dispersed, leaving a path for them to walk, but they really couldn't understand the zombie language.

Xu Bai took a tentative step forward.

She found that the zombie that was originally half lying down had become even more ferocious. It stood up and roared at her even louder. Its voice was hoarse but full of energy.

Xu Bai led them back a few steps, and the zombies' noise became quieter.

"Walk."

Xu Bai and his companions ran away. When they looked back and saw the zombie sitting in a sedan chair being carried away by other zombies, they stopped and followed carefully.
