Chapter 3535
Xue Ling turned into a zombie very early.
While others were terrified by zombies, she was terrified that she had become a zombie.
Her skin turned blue, with blood vessels that had turned red and were very visible on the blue skin. Her eyes turned dark red, and she could not even feel her pulse or heartbeat.
Xue Ling looked at herself in the mirror for a long time, then looked down from the window. She was despairing to find that she was exactly the same as the zombies chasing and biting people below!
I wanted to shout out loud to vent my emotions, but what came out of my mouth was an ugly zombie roar.
Moreover, she gradually felt very hungry, but she didn't want to eat the snacks and rice at home. Instead, when she heard the couple next door quarreling, she wanted to go over and bite them.
At that time, the outside world had already started to get chaotic, and Xue Ling hid at home.
Someone was knocking on the door of each household, reminding them to stay at home and not go out casually to prevent the further spread of the infection. Some were also distributing supplies, but Xue Ling did not dare to open the door.
Xue Ling found herself a zombie, but unlike those zombies, she was extremely panicked. After being worried and frightened for a while, her first reaction was to look for her relatives.
My uncle, aunt and cousin should still be at home.
Fortunately, the zombies outside mistook her for one of their own kind. At that time, most people were hiding in their homes out of fear, so there were not many obstacles on the road. She successfully made her way to her uncle's house on the other side of the city.
Hesitating downstairs of the building where she had lived for more than ten years, Xue Ling was surprised to find that her mother was there too.
She had been contacted by phone before the chaos and was in the next city with her stepfather.
Is she here to pick her up?
Xue Ling was happy and scared. She hid at the door and waited until her mother walked out alone before she slowly walked over.
The moment she saw her clearly, her mother was stunned, her eyes widened in shock, tears instantly fell, and she stood there muttering her name.
Xue Ling also wanted to cry. She took two steps forward and wanted to call her mother, but all she could hear was the cry of a zombie.
This strange cry woke her mother up. She took a step back in fear and uttered a hoarse cry while trembling.
"ah!"
The screams attracted my uncle and stepfather into the house.
Stepfather used to be a truck driver. He was a bit dark, but had a good personality. When he married my mother, he secretly gave Xue Ling a big red envelope.
At this time, he hurried out with a stick in his hand. The first time he saw Xue Ling, he immediately raised the stick and hit her.
The raised stick made a whistling sound in the air, as if it could blow a person's head off. Xue Ling was so scared that he turned his head to avoid it, but was still hit on the back of his head by the stick.
The stepfather wanted to hit her again, but her mother reacted, screamed, and rushed over to grab him.
"Don't hit her! Don't hit her!"
She cried and shouted, "It's Lingling... That's Lingling, my daughter! Ah..."
The second blow from his stepfather's stick failed to hit him, and Xue Ling stumbled away, hearing a chaotic noise coming from behind.
My uncle asked repeatedly in disbelief, my aunt was scared, and my cousin cried.
Sad and scared, they urged their mother to go into the house quickly and close the door.
Xue Ling was squatting in a corner downstairs, and could hear the crying in the house for a long time.
No matter who you are, when you see a zombie at the door, your first reaction is to beat it, which is understandable.
She told herself.
If I were still a human being, I would also be scared when I saw such an ugly zombie. I can understand that.
This is the reaction of normal people.
On the way here, she thought about how to let her uncle and the others know that she was still rational and different from other zombies.
But when she saw the fear in her mother's eyes, she was awakened by a stick from her stepfather.
No matter whether she still has human thoughts and reason, no matter how she promises that she will not bite anyone, she can no longer live with her loved ones.
That night, she squatted downstairs all night. The next day, her uncle's family, mother, and stepfather drove away from Yu City.
They were planning to go to a county in the next city. His stepfather's hometown was in the countryside, with few people and not as dangerous as Yu City if there was a riot. His stepfather's son, daughter and their family were also there.
Xue Ling watched their car drive away, and only stood up and followed it after it was out of sight.
Suddenly I didn’t know where else I could go.
She wanted to go back to the house she rented, where she had lived for more than two years.
But when she returned, the building was in chaos and someone was hiding in her room. She couldn't go back and could only wander downstairs.
Her relatives have left her. Although she still has a few friends, they are not that close. At least after she becomes a zombie, they probably won’t want to see her.
My lover...broke up not long ago.
At first she didn't think about going to look for Wen Jiuze, but she really had nowhere to go.
When the building where she lived was set on fire by a madman, Xue Ling finally decided to leave Yu City.
When you leave, you have to find a destination, right?
She thought of Wen Jiuze’s hometown, Anxi City. He and Wen Xuan had returned to their hometown some time ago.
Xue Ling decided to go to Anxi City to find Wen Jiuze, not for any other reason but because she was still angry about their hasty breakup and the injustice she had suffered from her relatives.
So she decided to irrationally vent her anger on Wen Jiuze and go to Anxi City to bite him and turn him into a zombie!
With a vengeful mentality, she set off angrily.
But the journey was too long and too difficult. When she finally arrived in Anxi City, she no longer wanted to look for Wen Jiuze, so she just found a park to lie down.
When she didn't want to see Wen Jiuze again, he suddenly appeared in front of her.
She was really upset at that time and hoped that Wen Jiuze would disappear as soon as possible... She didn't want to see the person who used to be closest to her looking at her with fear and disgust again.
After hearing Wen Jiuze's attitude, Xue Ling had lost hope from the beginning. Even her closest relatives were afraid of her, not to mention an ex-boyfriend who broke up with her.
When he fell in the pile of zombies, Xue Ling thought to himself, I'm not afraid, if you have the guts, just kill me, just shoot me.
But Wen Jiuze didn't. He was as frivolous as before, as if he didn't see her zombie look clearly. He smiled and said, "I didn't hit you, why did you fall down?"
The small boat drifting on the sea came ashore, although it had hit a reef.
It has been more than three years since she turned into a zombie, and more than two months since she reunited with Wen Jiuze. Today, when she met her relatives again, Xue Ling couldn't help but have too many complicated emotions in her heart.
After she "cried" out a bottle of water, Wen Jiuze wiped her face with a towel, wiped the wet seat, held her in his arms and lay on the flat seat, deliberately saying some provocative words.
Xue Ling tore several holes in his clothes, held them in her hands, and gradually calmed down.
"Is it because Mom is done being sad? If so, can you answer me a question?"
Wen Jiuze's thoughtfulness is like a rainbow after a storm, which shines brightly for a moment and then quickly disappears, making people suspect that it is an illusion.
"I thought you came to Anxi City before you became a zombie, and you accidentally became a zombie there, but your mother said that you looked like this in Yu City three years ago, so you came to Anxi City to find me after you became a zombie, right?"
Xue Ling: “…”
It's all confirmed, why are you asking?
She didn't say anything, and Wen Jiuze didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he asked another question: "How long did it take you to get here? A year? A year and a half?"
He guessed several times and they were all wrong. Xue Ling reluctantly told him that it was more than two years, but she couldn't remember exactly how long.
This time, it took them more than two months to drive from Anxi City to Yu City. During the journey, they had no navigation, so they got lost and took many detours. They had to take detours because of road collapse or man-made blockades, large numbers of zombies and vehicles gathered, and they had to take detours. They had to rest at night, constantly find ways to get gasoline, and encountered various emergencies.
It would be even more troublesome if you had to walk.
Xue Ling almost got lost in the grasslands. She followed the railway tracks to find her way back, but a large section of the tracks was buried by landslides on both sides. God knows how she got out.
It’s amazing that she could reach Anxi City in more than two years!
"It's amazing that you can find Anxi City." Wen Jiuze also praised her.
Xue Ling: “…”
I wasn't happy at all after he praised me like that.
Wen Jiuze: "Are you here to get back together with me?"
Xue Ling didn't want to cry anymore. She wanted to sneer.
You're dreaming, you're still getting back together, she's here for revenge!
Wen Jiuze: "You worked so hard to find me, and when you saw me you didn't bite me. You really care about me."
Xue Ling: “…”
This dog’s memory shouldn’t be that bad, right?
When they first met, didn't she want to bite him? Didn't she want to bite him but didn't succeed? She reacted so quickly, was so strong, and tied her up so that she couldn't get away even if she struggled. But he didn't mention it at all.
In the afternoon, when Wen Jiuze was packing his things by the car and preparing to leave, he saw Ms. Xue Pingying again.
She held the little girl who was a few years old yesterday and took the initiative to walk over and talk to him.
"I haven't asked you your name yet. Are you planning to stay at Xiu'an Base?"
Wen Jiuze heard the rustling noise in the car and stopped. He smiled and replied, "My name is Wen Jiuze, and I'm leaving this afternoon."
He glanced at the little girl in her arms: "Who is this child?"
Xue Pingying patted the shy little girl and said, "This is my stepdaughter's daughter. Her father is gone and her mother has to work every day, so I take care of her."
There were so many people who died, and every family had lost a loved one. Xue Pingying, whose eyes had turned red in the morning because she suddenly heard the name of her dead daughter, now seemed no longer sad. After all, it had been a long time since she died.
But no one had mentioned her daughter to her for a long time, and Xue Pingying suddenly felt the desire to talk to someone and confide in them.
"Her name is Tiantian. She is a sensible and obedient child, just like me, Lingling. Lingling was like this when she was little. She seldom cried and didn't like to make trouble. She behaved well when I held her in my arms."
"He's very sensible at a young age, and he even gives me an umbrella."
Wen Jiuze leaned against the car window and listened, while Xue Ling leaned behind him and also listened quietly.
She still remembers this incident. She had only lived in her uncle's house for a year at that time. During the summer vacation, she received a call from her mother. She finally couldn't hold it in anymore and cried, saying that she missed her and wanted to live with her.
When her mother heard her crying, she also burst into tears on the phone. She also missed her daughter.
So I took a day off and took a train overnight to pick her up and live with her, and we agreed to go back to my uncle's house after the summer vacation.
At that time, my mother was working alone outside. Her salary was not high and her accommodation conditions were not good. She lived in a small room on the rooftop. It was very sunny during the day, so she couldn't afford to install an air conditioner and only used an electric fan.
It was only after Xue Ling left that she installed an air conditioner.
During the day, when her mother went to work, Xue Ling stayed in the room alone. Every day before her mother went to work, she would give her a lot of instructions, such as not to touch the knife, not to touch the plug, and not to take hot water.
She went to work every day feeling worried about her, and would rush back to see her at noon before rushing back to work.
Once, when it was time to get off work, it rained heavily. Xue Ling didn't wait for her mother to come back, so she went downstairs with an umbrella. But she didn't know where to go after going downstairs, so she had to sit downstairs and wait for her.
"I waited until the rain was about to stop before returning home. I saw Lingling waiting for me downstairs with an umbrella. As soon as she saw me, she started crying and said, 'Mom, a dog bit me.' I looked over and saw a puppy the size of a palm biting her leg."
Xue Pingying recalled all this and smiled.
Years later, she could still smile when she thought about it, but she was too young to care about anything else at the time. She was only filled with fear, so she went up to her daughter and sternly told her not to go downstairs alone.
She often heard about children being lost somewhere, and she was really afraid that if she missed a child, he or she would be kidnapped.
Wen Jiuze suddenly asked, "Was Xue Ling afraid of dogs when she was a child?"
Xue Pingying was stunned for a moment: "No, she likes puppies. That day the puppy bit her pants and scared her, but she told me that the puppy didn't bite her on purpose, it was just hungry. Later, when I took her downstairs to play, she would always look for the puppy and want to play with it."
She had been holding the little girl named Tiantian and talking to her. When she felt a little tired, she put her down.
She walked on the ground every day, not paying attention to what the adults were saying. When she saw a bug on the ground, she suddenly reached out to catch it.
Xue Pingying saw this and hurried to stop him: "Tiantian, don't catch bugs. They will bite you."
She picked up the child helplessly and said casually, "Children just like to play with these little bugs. They are not afraid of them at all. My daughter Lingling is the same. When she was little, she even grabbed a frog and kissed it."
Wen Jiuze looked strange: "Catch the frog... and kiss it?"
