Chapter 333
When the two were still boyfriend and girlfriend, Wen Jiuze would occasionally get too angry. At such times, the way he thought of to make peace was -
"Would you like to go somewhere to play?"
Go out with her and as long as she is having fun, she won't care about her anger.
Just like last time at the zoo.
Wen Jiuze stood up from the river, dripping wet all over.
In fact, he was a little unhappy in his heart. He felt that he had not said anything unpleasant this time, nor did he do anything. He didn't know why she suddenly exploded.
But when he saw Xue Ling sitting on the shore with her legs hugged and her face buried in her knees after pushing the person, he couldn't help but soften his heart.
He stepped onto the shore, wiped the water off his face, squatted in front of her, and asked softly, "Why are you unhappy?"
Xue Ling didn't raise her head, only showing him a whorl of hair and a back of her head that was no longer round.
He tried to touch Xue Ling more gently.
"How about you push me down again? I'll let you push me down again, okay?"
He pulled up Xue Ling's hand and shook it. Xue Ling didn't look up. He slowly clenched his hand into a fist and slowly hammered it into his chest.
The punch was not heavy, but it made Wen Jiuze's heart beat violently, as if she had penetrated his skin and really hit his heart.
Not realizing that she had already started laughing, Wen Jiuze covered her fist and said, "Why don't you hit me harder?"
"Come on, I'll take you..." He lifted the person up and held him in his arms, "I'll take you somewhere."
After changing his wet clothes beside the car, Wen Jiu drove away from the planned route and headed towards a deserted road.
The road was very bumpy and there was no road at the back.
This terrible road brought Xue Ling out of her bad mood. She looked out the car window, with questions popping up in her mind: Where is he going to take her?
When the car left all visible roads and drove into the bushes, Xue Ling couldn't help but stick her head out, and then she was hit in the face by a branch on the side of the road.
"Hey." Wen Jiuze closed the car window, "Don't stick your head out."
I can't remain silent any longer!
Xue Ling took the writing board and asked, "Where are you going?"
"I'll take you to a good place." Wen Jiuze said mysteriously.
The road ahead was impassable, so Wen Jiuze got out of the car, pulled Xue Ling out as well, and dragged her deeper into the dense grass.
He walked in front, his tall figure blocking most of the sharp blades of grass. When he encountered thorny grass, he would step on it and create a path.
Those blades of grass would not leave any marks on the tough skin of the zombies, but would leave fine red marks on Wen Jiuze's arms.
But he didn't care. He pushed aside the tall grass and tried to figure out the direction and recall the location as he walked.
Xue Ling lowered his head and paid attention to his feet, fearing that a snake or other scary insect would suddenly slip out.
"Here we are. This is it."
The grass gradually became sparse, and they walked out of the wild grass and came to a wide open flat area. There were many gravels and sand on the ground, as well as a few strange holes.
"Guess what these holes are?" Wen Jiuze smiled and squatted beside a big pit, "Make a bold guess."
The pit was several meters deep, with a pool of water in the depression at the bottom and some lush green grass growing beside it.
Xue Ling used his brain to think, and hesitantly wrote down two words: "Theft hole?"
Wen Jiuze: “…” This guess is too bold.
He revealed the answer: "It's a meteorite crater. You remember that meteorite shower."
Three years ago, when the zombie virus was rapidly infecting this land, there was a meteorite shower.
On that day, many satellites launched by humans fell, and with them fell meteorites of various sizes.
Viewed from Earth, it was an extremely spectacular meteor shower.
"I was nearby at the time and saw the meteorites falling," said Wen Jiuze.
He was on his way back to Yu City from Anxi City to find Xue Ling.
He was extremely anxious because the ground suddenly shook and the man and the car overturned on the side of the road.
The falling meteorite hit a tall signal tower in the distance, causing the cables to catch fire and starting a huge fire.
It was clearly daytime, but the sky looked dark and was reflected in a fiery red.
He was forced to stay nearby, watching the "shooting star" streaking across the sky above his head, and for the first time he accepted their words about the "end of the world."
"What about you? Where were you at that time?" Wen Jiuze looked at Xue Ling.
It took Xue Ling a while to draw out two words - at home.
She had already become a zombie by then. With nowhere to go, she wandered around among the zombies, thinking about life.
Her peers were all looking for human scent, roaring in restlessness, but she was the only one who opened her eyes wide and looked up at the "meteor shower" in the sky.
The scene was so shocking that she watched it from the beginning to the end without blinking and forgot about the time.
When the meteorite shower ended, she came to her senses and found that all the zombies nearby had left with a clear purpose, leaving her alone standing there, not knowing what to do.
The meteorite shower did not bring her any other trouble at the time because no meteorites fell nearby. She only saw spectacular meteors streaking across the sky.
For a modern person who was still a human being not long ago, her first thought at that time was: What a pity, the phone was lost and I couldn’t take a picture.
Then she heard someone on a nearby building collapse and shout, "It must be this meteor shower. The zombie virus was brought by the meteor shower!"
Although there was a zombie outbreak in front and a meteor shower behind, this crying brother obviously no longer cared about these causal relationships.
There is no definitive conclusion as to whether the zombie virus is related to this meteorite shower, but it is true that global communication signals completely collapsed after this meteorite shower.
While Xue Ling was wandering around as a zombie joining in the fun, he heard many people discussing this issue.
Some people say that this meteorite shower caused changes in the Earth's magnetic field, so communication signals were disrupted.
After all, all means of contact and communication failed, and even today, three years later, they have not been restored.
If you turn on the car radio now, you still can't hear anything.
Two figures, one tall and one short, squatted in the meteorite pit and looked down.
"Gudong." Wen Jiuze threw a small stone and it hit the small puddle in the pit.
"Why don't we go down and take a look? Maybe we can find a meteorite." Wen Jiuze said.
He remembered that Xue Ling liked meteorites in the past and had excitedly bought a meteorite pendant.
He looked at it for a long time and felt that the "meteorite" was no different from the rocks on the roadside, so he asked her: "Do you think this is very likely a fake meteorite?"
Xue Ling said: "This is a fake meteorite. A real meteorite can't be so cheap."
"You knew it was fake, but you still bought it?" Wen Jiuze was puzzled.
"Just like when I bought a fortune-attracting bracelet, do I think it can really bring in wealth?" Xue Ling said as if it was a matter of course.
Aren't we just pinning our romantic fantasies and beautiful expectations on others? Who would take it seriously?
Wen Jiuze thus knew that she liked meteorites.
Later, because of some marketing accounts' claims that "meteorites cause cancer", Xue Ling reluctantly put away the pendant and replaced it with a bracelet that promised passing every exam, which she bought from a temple.
Because she was having a headache about the exam at that time, she would recite lessons until late at night every day.
By the way, I also bought him a silver bell bracelet to keep him healthy, but of course Wen Jiuze refused to wear it.
Wen Jiu slid down the sloping wall of the meteorite pit, with gravel and sand falling under his feet.
He stretched out his hand to Xue Ling: "Be careful, give me your hand."
Xue Ling felt a little troubled. In fact, it was most convenient and quickest to just roll down into this kind of pit. She had done this before, and she wouldn't get hurt or feel any pain anyway.
But Wen Jiuze was waiting for her with his arms open, so she had no choice but to swallow it slowly as he wished.
Go down to the bottom of the pit and step next to the small puddle.
Xue Ling looked up at the sky. It was blue above her head and the weather was very good.
Wen Jiuze was already squatting there, picking up rocks on the ground, and asked her, "Which ones here are meteorites? Can you identify them?"
Xue Ling also squatted down and searched for stones at the bottom of the pit.
She didn't plan to look for meteorites, she just wanted to find two nice-looking rocks.
In fact, she liked meteorites more when she was a child, but she didn't like them as much as she grew up.
It is normal for many children to become interested in aliens, the universe, stars, etc. when they first come into contact with the universe.
When Xue Ling was a child, she watched an animated film about an orphan looking for his relatives.
The stone that the orphan was wearing was a meteorite, and he was actually an alien child who was left on Earth. One day, his alien relatives finally found him based on the meteorite and took him home in a spaceship.
Xue Ling, who was still young at the time, inevitably had this fantasy. Maybe she was also an alien child, and her loving relatives would come to Earth to take her back and reunite with her.
However, after this thought came to mind, she was followed by guilt, as if she disliked her mother.
So the little girl was seriously worried at the time, wondering if her alien parents would come looking for her and whether she should leave her Earth mother.
Because of this reason, I like meteorites, but it is a bit difficult to open my eyes when I grow up.
When Wen Jiuze asked her why she liked meteorites, she pretended to be very literary and told him about the birth of stars, saying that she liked meteorites because the universe was very romantic.
At this moment, when Wen Jiuze insisted on finding a real meteorite for her before he would leave, Xue Ling felt a little regretful for her pretense... Why did she have to pretend like that?
She held two pebbles, pulled Wen Jiuze's clothes, and urged him to leave.
Wen Jiuze let his clothes be pulled to an oversized size by her and continued to dig at the stones without moving.
"The two stones you found are not meteorites." He sneered at the stones she found.
"See? This is a meteorite." He pulled out a black stone with holes on the surface and some tiny reflective crystals.
He held it in his hand and asked her, "Is one piece enough? I'll find you another one."
Xue Ling: “…” He actually knew what a meteorite looked like.
Okay, that’s enough, let’s go.
Wen Jiuze was surprised: "Why are you in such a hurry?"
It was nothing, except that Xue Ling was afraid that there was really radiation in this meteorite pit, and if Wen Jiuze stayed here for too long, something might happen to him.
He was not a normal person to begin with, and now he is affected by radiation and becomes even more grotesque. What should I do?
Hearing the sound of his clothes tearing slightly, Wen Jiuze stood up and said, "Okay, let's go."
Xue Ling took the meteorite from his hand, put it back where it was and buried it.
After returning the meteorite to the meteorite pit, she pushed Wen Jiuze up.
Wen Jiuze went up first and then pulled her up.
"You've come here for nothing. You're like Ye Gong who loves dragons but doesn't even dare to take the real meteorite." Wen Jiuze laughed at her.
Xue Ling took the two white pebbles he had found and was about to hit him, but Wen Jiu raised his hands to block them.
"Why are you in such a hurry to leave? I'm planning to camp here with you tonight."
"Don't you want to rest in this sinkhole?"
No thanks.
Xue Ling thought to herself, it’s not like I haven’t slept in a meteorite pit like this before.
She didn't tell Wen Jiuze that she had actually seen such meteorite craters several times.
On the way from Yu City to Anxi City, she got lost several times. She had seen meteorite craters and a satellite crater before.
The satellite in the pit was torn into pieces, leaving only some debris.
Next to it is another large meteorite crater.
She rolled down the side of the pit, dug at the bottom, and found a large meteorite.
That night she lay with the meteorite as her pillow, feeling calm yet excited all night.
All the science fiction movies I have watched since I was a child are replaying in my mind, and my mind is full of things like whether I will mutate or whether zombies will evolve.
But nothing happened that night, and the sun was particularly hot at noon, so she had to climb out of the pit in disappointment and continue walking along the road.
