"They really are the same!"
Bai Zhengxuan also glanced at the middle-aged man. The old scar on Bai Zhengxuan's arm made him subconsciously extend his own arm as well.
He was wearing a short-sleeved shirt, which revealed a scar on his arm that wasn't too deep, but was still quite noticeable.
This scar is quite large and looks very old.
The scar is the size of an infant's fist and has an irregular shape.
The probability that two people have the same irregular scars is zero.
But Bai Zhengxuan and the middle-aged Bai Zhengxuan had the exact same scars on their arms.
They look like they were made from the same mold.
If you insist on saying it's different, it's that Bai Zhengxuan's scars on his arm are lighter in color because he's middle-aged.
Another point is that Bai Zhengxuan, being middle-aged, has full, well-developed muscles on his arms.
Bai Zhengxuan's arms have loose skin and wrinkles, just like all elderly people.
Bai Zhengxuan, in his middle age, touched the scar on his arm and instinctively covered it.
Then, realizing she was overreacting, she slowly loosened her grip and revealed herself openly.
"I've had this scar since I was a child. It was when I was swimming with my friends and I tried to save them, and I was accidentally scratched by a tree branch in the water."
In his middle age, Bai Zhengxuan casually made up an explanation for the origin of the scar.
"Where did Grandpa get the scar on his arm?"
Bai Yifan looked at Bai Zhengxuan.
When they were children, Bai Yifan and Bai Xizhu both noticed that Bai Zhengxuan had a scar on his arm. They asked him about it several times, and each time they received a different reason.
It's either an act of heroism or a righteous indignation.
In short, they are all left behind from doing good deeds.
But the reasons given each time were different, and it was obvious that they were made up on the spot.
"I'm pretty much the same, I was just doing a good deed too." Bai Zhengxuan gave a dry laugh, deliberately changing the subject, "By the way, the zombies won't come back, right? Let's pack up and run!"
“They won’t be coming back. They’ve gone to a very far place,” Zombie King Zhang Yiming said calmly.
"It's good that they won't come back. Then let's keep sunbathing!"
Bai Zhengxuan silently wiped the sweat from his forehead and stopped talking.
"Grandpa, are you embarrassed to say how you got the scar on your arm?"
Bai Yifan tilted his head and looked at Bai Zhengxuan, his heart filled with endless curiosity.
The less Bai Zhengxuan said, the more curious Bai Yifan became.
For some reason, after seeing the scars on Bai Zhengxuan's arm, Bai Yifan felt compelled to get to the bottom of it.
"Why are you asking so many questions, you little kid!" Bai Zhengxuan rolled his eyes at Bai Yifan. "Haven't you done your homework in months? Are you bored out of your mind? I'll give you some homework in a bit. Even if it's the end of the world, you can't skip homework!"
As an excellent teacher, I haven't taught any classes for children in a long time, let alone assigned any homework.
So I just gave Bai Yifan a few notebooks of homework to do, just to satisfy his craving.
Even in the apocalypse, as the grandson of a teacher, homework is still essential.
What if I didn't write anything in the past few months?
Make it up! It absolutely must be made up!
Otherwise, they'd be asking random, pointless questions all the time.
"Fine, I'll write it!" Bai Yifan nodded with a conflicted look. "But while I'm doing my homework, can you tell me how you got hurt?"
"cannot!"
Bai Zhengxuan rolled his eyes and shook his head.
Being older has its advantages; at least when people ask him something and he doesn't answer, no one pressures him to answer.
If all else fails, he'll pretend to be sick. After all, he's already quite old, and nobody's going to press him for details.
If anyone actually keeps pressing for an answer, he'll beat that bastard to death!
Anyway, he's the grandfather!
"Fine then! I won't do my homework."
Bai Yifan shrugged.
"I'll kill you if you don't write it!"
Bai Zhengxuan raised his fist at Bai Yifan.
Children have to do homework and study. Bai Yifan is at most a high school dropout now.
Even though the school is gone, my studies can't be neglected.
Bai Yifan pursed his lips and remained silent.
I'll just write something, no matter what!
...I'm still afraid of being beaten to death.
"Grandma, do you know how Grandpa got the scar on his arm?"
Bai Xizhu looked at the scars on Bai Zhengxuan's arm and her grandfather's arm, and felt that something was off.
These irregular scars are exactly the same; the probability of them being identical is too low.
For a moment, she was somewhat dazed.
She remembered that about twenty years ago, when she was still young, her grandfather was younger than he is now. His arms were not wrinkled yet, and he had some muscles, which were somewhat similar to Bai Zhengxuan's arms in middle age.
"This is because he was greedy when he was little. He went to the pigsty to kill a pig and eat its shank, and the pig rooted him up!" Liu Jing whispered in Bai Xizhu's ear.
Bai Xizhu: ...
The Bai family: ...
Being a superhuman has its advantages; no matter how quietly you speak, you can still hear what others are whispering about.
"I knew it! This scar is too irregular; it doesn't look like it was scratched by anything."
Bai Yifan muttered something under his breath.
Bai Zhengxuan, a middle-aged man, twitched almost imperceptibly on the face, tilted his head to look away, and remained silent.
Liu Jing, middle-aged, smiled so much that the gauze bandage was tied crooked.
Seeing that his wife had already revealed his true colors, Bai Zhengxuan decided to stop pretending.
"What do you know!" Bai Zhengxuan said with his hands on his hips and a righteous expression. "In our time, having a fat pig at home was considered a sign of being a wealthy family! When I was a kid, our family was considered a wealthy family!"
"A wealthy family?" Bai Anhai blinked. "Why was my family so poor when I was a child?"
