Chapter 183
"Sister, now that you've found your uncle and aunt, will you come back?" Yun Mian simply hugged sister Ji Wan's arms with both hands, leaned on her shoulders and asked her softly.
Ji Wan thought for a moment and answered honestly: "I don't know either. Maybe he won't come back in the short term."
After all, it was becoming increasingly dangerous outside, and her special abilities were mostly causing trouble for others. After finding her parents, she was more likely to live in another safe base for a long time for safety reasons.
Of course, the prerequisite is to be able to successfully reach another base and successfully find the living parents.
"What if I miss you..." The child pursed his lips with a look of reluctance on his face.
Hearing this, Ji Wan felt a little warmer in his heart. He reached out and hugged the depressed Yun Mian, and replied with a smile: "Then sister, can you try to come back earlier? When I come back, Mian Mian, don't forget me, okay?"
Yunmian stood on tiptoe and rubbed the palm of her hand that was rubbing on her head, then nodded seriously with bright eyes: "Mianmian will not forget her sister. After she leaves, you must be careful and don't be deceived by bad guys or bitten by zombies. And don't forget me, okay?"
"Let's make a pinky promise~"
Yun Mian stretched out her little finger in front of Sister Ji Wan and looked at her expectantly.
After making a pinky promise with her sister, she hugged the smiling sister tightly again and kissed her beautiful and delicate face. Only then did she let go and watched her get up and leave.
When Ji Wan was about to go outside, she turned around and saw a little kid standing on tiptoe at the intersection, waving his paw at her eagerly.
She looked back at the small figure and smiled for a moment, then raised her hand and waved at her. Then she took a deep breath and strode to meet up with the next teammate without looking back.
Yun Mian became depressed for a moment until her sister disappeared.
"I don't like parting at all." She lowered her head gloomily.
The cat's tail brushed her neck gently. Xiao Hao appeared not far away and looked at her. The system uncle pulled out the task panel and read: "Mianmian, the current side quest progress has reached 65%."
The mission Yunmian imagined going out on was completely different from the actual mission.
Imaginary outing: Pass the silk thread through the zombies' heads, causing them to fall down in droves, and then you can upgrade, upgrade and upgrade.
The actual time he went out: he was protected in the car by many people with live ammunition. He acted as a little mascot to keep the people in check, while leaning on the window and looking out eagerly. The only time he could get out of the water was when he ran from one car to another to help his fellow soldiers treat their wounds.
"I'm also very good." The useless little boy jumped up and raised his thin arms, looking pitifully at the comrade who assigned the task: "I can help you fight zombies, really!"
Comrades in the car: "..."
"Be good, Mianmian. It's not that I don't want you to go out, but there are many different kinds of zombies now. If you're not careful, you'll get into trouble. You're the most capable kid among us, so wait until there's a danger that none of us can handle, and then you can take action, okay?"
Zhang Ling has already figured out the trick to deal with Yunmian and to coax Maomao into giving in.
Sure enough, Yun Mian, who was jumping around wanting to help just a second ago, listened to his words, thought seriously for a few seconds, and nodded reluctantly but secretly and happily: "Okay then..."
Although Uncle Zhang Ling said this, Yun Mian felt that it would be better to avoid any crises that could not be dealt with.
Then the children will seriously remind everyone to be careful and not get hurt, thus completely solidifying their identity as the mascot.
But perhaps it was a prophecy, after a period of smooth sailing, the team suddenly encountered a difficult crisis.
At that time, Yunmian was resting with everyone in a medium-sized warehouse. The surroundings were very quiet and there were no plants in sight.
During the nearly half-month mission, Yun Mian's healing ability increased by three levels, and the silk threads on her fingertips increased from one to five.
Because she can use not only the crystal core rewards obtained in the mission, but also the rich spiritual energy that is everywhere in the jade pendant space.
But even so, Yun Xiaowu was a little shocked by the speed at which Yun Mian's supernatural powers were upgraded.
You have to know that this is pure spiritual energy irrigation. People in this world don’t even know any methods of absorbing spiritual energy. Just with this, Yun Mian can be promoted to level five... His talent must be far beyond that of ordinary people.
When Yunmian has nothing to do, she lets the silk threads out to “let some air out”.
When she noticed some unusual movement outside, she first tilted her head in confusion and listened, but she didn't hear any strange sound.
The child's brows furrowed a little.
Noticing her strangeness, Zhang Ling's heart skipped a beat: "Mianmian, what's wrong?"
Yunmian pinched the corn sausage they had divided and said in a low voice, "Uncle, will there be zombies in the sky or in the ground?"
Zhang Ling was stunned by her question: "In the sky, on the ground?"
Yun Mian nodded obediently, pointed at the concrete floor under her feet, and whispered, "Uncle, there seem to be zombies in here, and there seem to be zombies in the sky outside..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhang Ling stood up suddenly: "There is danger, be alert!!"
Yunmian was protected by them immediately.
Everyone held their weapons tightly and turned their backs to each other, keeping alert. Zhang Ling pointed his finger at the ground and asked Yun Mian with his eyes if this was the place.
Yunmian nodded affirmatively.
After about three seconds, the ground beneath their feet began to vibrate in a small arc that was visible to the naked eye, as if... there really was something underground that was pushing outwards and trying to break through the ground.
However, before Zhang Ling and his comrades could point their weapons at the ground, the walls of the warehouse suddenly heard a rustling sound of wings flapping and hitting each other.
"There are a lot of birds with red eyes outside." Yun Mian whispered to Uncle Zhang Ling what she saw with the silk thread.
As soon as he finished speaking, the concrete ground beneath his feet slowly cracked, finally revealing the true face of the creature underneath.
It was a mouse with red eyes and squeaking.
"Bang!"
After a decisive gunshot, the movement underground and outside seemed to stop for a moment. Just when everyone was puzzled, the rustling sounds became more intense and even crazy after a brief silence.
More and more rats came out from underground, and the originally tight group had to disperse. The rats that came out first shared the bodies of their dead companions, and then began to bite and climb towards living humans without hesitation.
Zhang Ling and his team still wanted to protect Yunmian first, but under the continuous attacks of the rats, they could not even protect themselves.
The only thing that can be done is to use the communication method within the base to send a distress message to the safe base and any teams that may be nearby.
However, what is more dangerous is the warehouse that is gradually collapsing after being attacked by a flock of zombie birds outside.
"Captain, we must evacuate quickly! If we don't, we will be crushed to death in here!"
This is not a small warehouse. It stores large quantities of supplies. The purpose of their trip is to get the supplies and food in the warehouse.
Therefore, accordingly, once the warehouse collapses, even if they are already psychics, they will definitely be crushed to death inside.
What's more, the underground might have been hollowed out by these zombie rats. You never know when you might step on empty air and fall into it. It would be too late to get out then.
Zhang Ling stepped on a zombie rat that had just fallen off his body and killed it. Hearing this, he said in a deep voice, "The flock of birds outside will probably be even harder to deal with. Everyone, be prepared."
But having said that, no one had the time to open the warehouse door for a while.
Everyone is in danger.
More and more zombie rats appeared in the warehouse. The sight of the black mice with scarlet eyes made people's scalp tingle. In addition to the sound of the zombie birds hitting the wall outside, the most creepy thing was the continuous biting sound of these mice when their teeth chattered.
Although the soldiers were wearing special protective gear, some of them had already been bitten by the swarm of zombie rats, and the situation was becoming increasingly critical.
Zhang Ling tried his best to send his comrades and Yun Mian out, but as he smelled the strong stench of rat in his nose, his brain became more and more dizzy, and he even felt that he would not be able to hold the weapon in his hand.
Just when he was in despair, the door of the warehouse did not open, but the wall next to it seemed to be cut by something to create a large exit.
"Uncle, go out." Yun Mian, dressed neatly, stood at the exit and frowned as she looked at the mess on their bodies.
Zhang Ling didn't care about being stunned. He tried his best to shoot a rat to death, then turned around to help other comrades deal with the rats, almost forcibly pushing them out while they were unconscious.
But what I saw outside was even more despairing.
Countless flocks of zombie birds were circling in the air. When they saw someone finally come out, they swooped down, chirping loudly.
The sky was dark and filled with zombie birds, and behind them were zombie rats chasing them out of a warehouse. This seemed more like a dead end than having wolves in front and tigers behind.
The moment the flock of pitch-black birds swooped down, Zhang Ling and the others closed their eyes in despair as they smelled the stench.
It’s not that they were willing to surrender, but for some reason, after finally rushing out, they all lost the strength to raise their arms to attack.
It seems that I was poisoned unknowingly in the warehouse.
But the expected pain did not come.
For some reason, the swooping birds suddenly changed direction halfway through their flight and instead flew towards the group of mice that had rushed out.
Birds...should eat mice, right?
Before they could recover from their shock, the child next to them, who was trying hard to wrap everyone tightly with five silk threads, turned back in confusion and asked them why they were not leaving yet.
It was not until this time that they realized that the people around them seemed to have suddenly disappeared, including... their own bodies?
Although no one knew what was going on, an opportunity to escape from the predicament was right in front of them. Even a dying person would desperately grab it, not to mention well-trained soldiers.
When we got back to the car, we saw a few invisible people bumping into each other in the air, and we were shocked to find that our comrade's body was gradually revealed.
Finally, everyone looked at the only child who was not hiding.
Yunmian put away the silk thread and looked at them with even more worry.
"Uncle, Maomao said that you all seem to be infected with the plague."
Yunmian didn't know what the plague was. She immediately moved the wounds on her uncle's body that were bitten by rats...
Ten minutes later.
After barely keeping himself awake and driving away from the dangerous area, Zhang Ling asked Yun Mian why she said they were infected with the plague.
"I don't know either……"
Yun Mian shook her head in confusion. Looking at their gradually pale faces, she said a little worriedly, "Maomao said that the plague is a very terrible disease. It will kill you very quickly and it will also be transmitted to other people...Maomao said that you should not return to the safe base, otherwise everyone will die."
There's more to come.
