Chapter 161 Yuxiang's First Zombie Follower
Qiao Yue was sitting on the sofa in the living room, idly flipping through an old magazine when she looked up and saw Youxiang, who was obviously about to go out. A look of confusion instantly appeared on her face.
"Little Yuzu, are you going out? Although it's only 40°C outside now compared to a few days ago, it's still very hot and humid."
As Yu Xiang tidied her equipment, she explained, "Du Rong called and said a group of zombies wants to join our base. I have to go check it out. After all, our base has rules for accepting zombies, and I have to personally oversee it."
Qin Zhuo, holding a pair of black sunglasses, quickly walked to Youxiang's side, handed her the sunglasses, and said, "I'll go with you."
Youxiang took the sunglasses, put them on, and then took a sun umbrella from the shelf next to her. She smiled and said to Qin Zhuo, "You've only just recovered a little, and your body isn't fully healed yet. The sun is very strong in this weather, so you'd better not go out to avoid getting heatstroke again."
Qin Zhuo couldn't help but step forward, gently placing his hands on Youxiang's shoulders and lightly kissing her smooth forehead. "Come back soon after you've finished your business."
Yuka's cheeks flushed slightly, and she nodded vigorously, saying, "Yes, I will, so don't worry about me."
Qiao Yue stood to the side, watching the two lovey-dovey people at the door, and couldn't help but smile secretly.
Then she leaned closer to Qiao Yan and whispered, "Sister, look at this young couple. They don't care about us at all. They're just busy being lovey-dovey."
Qiao Yan gently patted Qiao Yue's arm, a faint smile on her lips, "Alright, stop staring at them. It's a good thing that the young couple is in a good relationship, we should give them our blessings."
She sincerely wished Youxiang and Qin Zhuo well in being together.
Yu Xiang bid farewell to Qin Zhuo and Qiao Yue, and drove her pink car to the base gate.
Du Rong was already waiting there, dressed in a smart outfit, with fine beads of sweat on her forehead.
Upon seeing Yuxiang, she immediately jogged over to greet her and respectfully said, "Boss."
Youxiang patted Du Rong on the shoulder and said with concern, "You've been working hard lately, guarding the gate in this hot weather. Don't overwork yourself."
Du Rong quickly waved her hand, then led Youxiang into the house while saying, "It's not hard work. The boss installed surveillance cameras and air conditioning, so most of the time we can just stay indoors and watch the cameras. It's much easier than standing guard outside."
Yuka nodded, then asked, "Where are those zombies you mentioned on the phone?"
Du Rong pointed to the room next door, "It's in the next room."
Du Rong brought the scent of grapefruit to the next room.
The zombies inside looked wretched, their clothes tattered, their狰狞 faces showing exhaustion and hunger.
When they saw Yuxiang, they only looked up at her briefly before lowering their heads again.
Du Rong turned to look at Youxiang and asked cautiously, "Boss, do you think we can leave these zombies here?"
Just as Yuka was about to answer, a zombie excitedly ran up to her and shouted, "Boss!"
Yuka tilted her head, looking at the zombie in front of her with a puzzled expression.
She hadn't even said whether she wanted them to stay, and this boss was already calling out so early, without even asking if she agreed.
The zombie's mouth rattled off like a machine gun, "Boss, back then you took your two human servants and said you were going to find us food, and then you left. We brothers waited and waited, our eyes practically burned out, but you never came back."
"Later, that place was discovered by other humans. They rushed over with weapons, and we had no choice but to leave that area and begin our life of wandering."
After hearing this, Yu Xiang thought back to what she had heard.
After a moment, she finally remembered who the zombie in front of her was.
This zombie was the first zombie underling to call her "boss."
Upon seeing the zombie she had once tricked again, Yuka felt a little guilty. After all, she had promised to find food, but she had lied to them just to escape.
She coughed lightly a few times, trying to ease the awkward atmosphere, and then explained, "I'm sorry, something unexpected happened, the situation was very critical, so I couldn't come to find you. By the way, what's your name?"
As for what unexpected things might happen, let them use their imaginations.
The zombie scratched his messy hair and grinned, "I knew the boss hadn't forgotten me. There must be some compelling reason why he couldn't come back. As for my name, I don't even remember what I used to be called. Why don't you give me a name, boss?"
Yuxiang tilted her head and thought for a moment, "How about calling her Sangsang?"
The name was just picked randomly, it doesn't have any special meaning, it's just something that sounds good.
Upon hearing this, Sangsang's eyes sparkled with joy, and she happily spun around in circles. "Sangsang, I love this name! I'll be called Sangsang from now on!"
Yu Xiang looked at the excited Sang Sang, then turned to Du Rong standing to the side, lowered her voice and said seriously, "Leave these zombies behind, but keep an eye on their behavior and report any unusual behavior to me immediately. Also, tell them some of the rules of our base, so they know what they can and cannot do in the base."
Du Rong nodded. "Okay, I'll go arrange it right away."
Yuka saw that everything was arranged and was about to turn around and leave.
Just then, Sangsang suddenly ran over, grabbed Youxiang's sleeve, and asked anxiously, "Boss, are you leaving?"
Yu Xiang stopped, turned around, and said with a smile, "Yes, I have other things to take care of. Listen to Du Rong later, she will arrange accommodations and food for you, so you can stay at the base without worry."
As she spoke, she pointed to Du Rong beside her.
Upon hearing this, Sangsang's eyes flashed with a hint of doubt, and she continued, "Food? Are they humans raised by the boss? When we came here just now, we encountered a group of humans hiding in a cave. Originally, our group of brothers wanted to eat them and take over their cave, but unfortunately those humans were a bit too strong. We couldn't beat them and were even driven away by them."
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiang lowered her head and began to ponder.
Will Sang Sang be able to recruit those people she saw into the base?
In such a high-temperature environment, those people must have had a very difficult time outside, constantly on guard against zombies and other dangers.
Now is the perfect time to recruit them. If she can bring them into the base, it will not only strengthen the base's capabilities but also bring her closer to her goal of building a base where humans and zombies can coexist.
