☆、 A simple and cute little zombie is a stubborn and domineering supernatural boss (31)
The next day, when it was still gray in the morning, the old man woke up several people who were sleeping.
Shen Xuanmo moved very carefully, for fear of waking the boy.
"Mo Mo?" But the boy still slowly opened his eyes and called the man's name in a soft and sweet voice.
Qingqing was lazily walking around, as if she wanted to remember but didn't want to remember at the same time, and looked at Shen Xuanmo with sleepy eyes.
Shen Xuanmo's heart softened, and he said softly, "Sleep a little longer, it's still early."
"Ah." The young man shook his head and sat up. He was afraid that the man would abandon him again. Like a sensitive and suspicious little fox, he looked at Shen Xuanmo reluctantly.
Shen Xuanmo smiled helplessly and reached out to ruffle the boy's hair. "I won't leave. I'll stay here with you."
The young man hesitated, and finally lay down again with peace of mind, but his eyes were still fixed on Shen Xuanmo.
"Brother Shen, everyone is here. When do we leave?" Qiu Ze's loud voice rang out, and the young man, who had finally closed his eyelids, was startled and opened his eyes again.
Shen Xuanmo sighed softly when he saw this, "Qingqing, do you want to join me?"
The boy's eyes lit up instantly and he nodded hurriedly, "Oh."
Shen Xuanmo pulled the young man up and tidied up his messy clothes.
Qingqing hugged his neck obediently, and had already become accustomed to this kind of fatherly hug.
"Do you want to go out so badly?" He raised his head and looked at Qingqing with a frown, his bright eyes flashing with a gleam.
Shen Xuanmo originally didn't plan to take Qingqing with him, but now it seems unlikely.
"Oh." Qingqing didn't care about any danger. To him, as long as the man was there, he would never have to worry about food and clothing.
This time she was not abandoned. Qingqing's brows were relaxed and she looked well-behaved and likable, appearing to be particularly well-behaved.
A hint of joy seemed to appear on that emotionless face.
"Brother Shen, you are finally here!"
When everyone saw the man coming with a young boy, there was a flash of surprise in their eyes.
The boy was wearing a black duckbill cap and a blue medical mask, so his full appearance could not be seen clearly, which aroused people's curiosity.
Qiu Ze was about to speak, but Shen Xuanmo glanced at him and he shut his mouth.
"Brother Shen, why did you bring Qingqing out?" The implication is that it is too dangerous outside, and by bringing Qingqing out, aren't you putting him in danger?
Shen Xuanmo glanced at him and said calmly: "I know my limits and won't let him get into danger." After that, he patted Qingqing's back gently.
Of course he knew it, but Qingqing was too clingy to him and wanted him to accompany her in everything. Thinking about it, his joy could not help but show on his face.
Besides... it's safer to keep it by my side. At most he'll have to take better care of it.
Qingqing seemed to know what the man was thinking and nuzzled into his arms again. Although everyone had doubts and dissatisfaction, they could not say anything more due to the mission.
Qingqing is a heartless little zombie who doesn't care about anything as long as the keeper is around.
Qiu Ze was different. He felt a little lost and walked away with heavy steps.
He couldn't understand why they suddenly came out of their nest.
He was just a rookie. He went, but he didn't know what he was going to do. He could only follow behind closely.
After everyone had packed up, they followed the experienced middle-aged man and set off.
They passed through a birch forest and came to a small city near City A.
The surroundings were eerily quiet. Not only were there no survivors, but even no zombies were to be seen.
"Brother Shen, this isn't right." Qiu Ze felt the surroundings were terribly quiet. He could even hear his own heart pounding and felt like it was going to jump out in the next second.
"Indeed, it's too quiet." The middle-aged man also spoke.
"I've been around here before, and it was completely different then."
"Could it be that all those things have left?"
"Not likely." The middle-aged man retorted earnestly.
Ordinary zombies, which are the lowest level zombies, will slowly die without food. It is impossible for there to be no trace at all.
"This is too weird!" one of them said, with a hint of regret.
"How about we go to another place? There should be many buildings like this nearby..."
But it's not just him. Among the eleven people here, none of them came here without having to do so.
Most of them join the team just to fill their stomachs, and only a few join the team voluntarily in order to obtain the mid- to high-level crystal cores that suit them.
"Follow me closely and don't talk." Shen Xuanmo held the hand of the boy who had been obedient and silent behind him and walked towards several supermarkets that were close to each other on the street.
"It's rice! Great, it's rice!" someone shouted excitedly.
"Keep your voice down, don't attract all the zombies here!" the middle-aged man reminded.
Hearing this, the man covered his mouth in fear, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I haven't seen Mi for a long time, I'm a little excited."
Soon they found five bags of 20 kilograms of rice, three bags of more than 10 kilograms of flour, and some expired snacks.
It can be considered a great harvest in the end times, but unfortunately there is no instant food. Fortunately, the base has the conditions. Many people have almost forgotten what rice with full grains tastes like.
Just in case, after discussing it, a few people decided to go back.
But Shen Xuanmo didn't seem to think so. He simply said something to the group of people, and they left soon, including Qiu Ze.
Qiu Ze didn't know what Shen Xuanmo wanted to do by staying, but there was no need for him to hold others back, so he made a quick decision to follow them back to the base.
"This is Qingqing's favorite snack. I'll give it to you." Shen Xuanmo seemed to see the disappointment in his eyes.
"Yes, Brother Shen, I will definitely protect them!"
"Well, be careful." Shen Xuanmo seemed a little worried about the people traveling with him, and said something in Qiu Ze's ear.
"I understand. Don't worry. I'm still waiting to play with Qingqing..."
After the others had gone far away, Shen Xuanmo turned to look at Qingqing beside him and said softly, "Qingqing, you can talk now. Let's go find some beautiful clothes for Qingqing to wear, okay?"
Shen Xuanmo looked at Qingqing's yellowed short-sleeved shirt and couldn't help but feel distressed. His Qingqing deserved the most expensive and best clothes in the world.
"Qingqing, if there is danger later, just howl twice, if not, just howl once." Shen Xuanmo suddenly remembered that Qingqing could actually sense whether there was any danger nearby.
"Oh." Qingqing let out an audible cry to show that she understood, and she jumped twice happily.
Soon they walked towards the nearest shopping mall. Qingqing was the happiest among them. She looked particularly well-behaved, with a faint bright smile on her face, making her look both pure and lovely.
The two walked into the mall, which was dead silent with scattered goods everywhere.
Shen Xuanmo held Qingqing's hand carefully and looked around vigilantly.
Qingqing looked around excitedly, her eyes fixed on the colorful clothes scattered on the ground.
On the other side, in a building in the city center, a large group of zombies gathered together, and in the middle sat a man with an abnormally pale face.
Suddenly, two zombies came running over with a clucking sound, howling something to the man in the middle.
"Really? Don't make a fuss, keep watching and report in time!" The man's blood-red eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of surprise.
Hearing this, several zombies clucked away again. Their movements were brisk, obviously not the speed of low-level zombies.
