Chapter 65: Nail House Lu Nian
Qin Shiyu raised his voice from Momo's back, "Stop talking! The zombies are coming!"
Everyone just remembered this, Zhu Ci picked up Xu Zhiyang and jumped onto Momo. After everyone sat down, the zombie tide was only a hundred meters away from them.
Momo suddenly jumped out and took a few people away.
Explosions continued to sound from the underground laboratory behind them. A man slowly climbed up the stairs, covered in blood, but his eyes were staring viciously in the direction they left.
"Lu Nian is a little timid, let him sleep for a while." Xu Zhiyang patted his pocket lightly.
Li Huiyin sighed: "What a disaster! After being kidnapped once, she can get a handsome boy."
“…” Xu Zhiyang raised his hand to slap her, but sadly found that he couldn’t move.
Li Huiyin was so happy seeing this that she almost danced for Xu Zhiyang on Momo's back.
Ignoring this idiot, Xu Zhiyang looked at Zhu Ci and asked, "What happened after you chased him out last night?"
Zhu Ci raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and looked at the boy, "The one I shot was a speedster, but he was incredibly strong. We had a fight, and I accidentally got shot. In the end, I used wind blades to cripple his hands and feet."
"When I came back, the zombies had already surrounded the tree. I didn't have much energy left, so I could only climb up the tree and wait for Momo to wake up and come find you."
Li Huiyin slapped her thigh at this point. "You don't know, but when Big Brother came back last night and saw you were gone, he went berserk. It was terrifying! After he got the news of where you were being held, he immediately killed that speedster!"
"I told him not to kill so hastily, what if he couldn't be found... but he wouldn't listen..."
Xu Zhiyang completely ignored Li Huiyin's complaints and focused all her attention on Zhu Ci. When she found out that he was injured, she immediately gave him energy.
Xu Zhiyang's voice was filled with anxiety: "Where was the bullet?"
Zhu Ci looked down at the boy, a soft light in his eyes, and placed his palm on the back of Xu Zhiyang's hand. "It's okay, it doesn't hurt anymore."
Lifting up Zhu Ci's clothes, Xu Zhiyang checked the wound on his abdomen. He couldn't believe that Zhu Ci could run to him with a bullet in his body.
The wound was healed by the gentle wood energy. Xu Zhiyang took out the bullet and asked with a frown, "Who is that Song Yuan? Do you... know him?"
"Yes. Strictly speaking, almost all the researchers in the imperial capital know him."
Zhu Ci held Xu Zhiyang's hand, feeling more at ease. "Song Yuan was originally a very important scientific researcher in the country. However, before the apocalypse, Song Yuan violated regulations and used living people to experiment on viruses. When he was discovered, he defected and fled abroad."
"I received an order from my superiors to help the Nighthawk Unit secretly capture Song Yuan abroad, but that mission failed and he escaped."
Qin Shiyu listened quietly to the whole story, and suddenly asked, "Is there someone protecting him?"
Zhu Ci nodded: "Yes, the Americans sent two teams of mercenaries to protect him."
Xu Zhiyang whispered, "Lu Nian told me that Song Yuan often used him for experiments, using electric shocks..."
"He's simply a lunatic." Qin Shiyu frowned. "He was cruel before the apocalypse. No wonder the country can't tolerate him."
Xu Zhiyang thought of the zombie that was injected with his serum. It could speak and was conscious at the last moment.
If this is the case, does it mean that... his blood can really be used to research vaccines?
In this apocalypse, animals and plants seem to be the most deadly, but so do zombies, especially mutated zombies. If there are a few more like Yan Shen, even people with superpowers will find it difficult to survive.
"I didn't expect Song Yuan to return to China and cooperate with the Six Gods Gang." Zhu Ci glanced at everyone.
He said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid it will be even more difficult for us to move forward in the future."
Qin Shiyu: "Second brother's ability is incredible. There will only be more people coming to snatch him away. It's too late to say anything now. His ability cannot be concealed."
Zhu Ci said solemnly, "Try your best to conceal it, at least as far as the imperial capital."
Mu Ke pondered for a moment: "From now on, Zhiyang should try to use less force, or use only one type of energy. If you need to heal, try to find a secluded place."
"I agree. From now on, Yangbao, hide behind me and I will protect you!" Li Huiyin hugged Xu Zhiyang's neck, pouted and wanted to kiss him on the face.
Xu Zhiyang calmly put his hand out to block it, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Lu Nian, the wide-eared fox in his pocket, really wanted to say that he would also try his best to protect Zhiyang.
Lu Nian moved hesitantly, but ultimately did not dare to stick his head out.
.
Momo ran on the road for two more days. These two days were the few relatively quiet moments. Along the way, Li Huiyin, Mu Ke and Zhu Ci encountered mutant animals with their own attributes and went down to harvest their superpowers.
Animals with other attributes will be killed by Zhu Ci, and their energy will be quietly absorbed by Xu Zhiyang. Some weak wood energy will be given to Qin Shiyu to help him advance faster.
"It's been two days. Is this little brat planning to live in your pocket?" Li Huiyin reached out and poked the small bulge in Xu Zhiyang's pocket.
She joked, "Hey, Lu Nian, remember to pay the rent!"
Xu Zhiyang patted his hand and said, "Don't tease him. Lu Nian is introverted and timid. He will be fine once he gets to know us over time."
Li Huiyin's tone was a little sour: "Why are you so nice to him..."
"I just feel... he's a bit like me..." The small mole at the end of Xu Zhiyang's eyebrow moved. "The first year after my parents passed away, I was just like him, hiding... and didn't want to come out."
"And he stayed very quiet in my pocket, barely moving."
Li Huiyin felt distressed, and her sadness instantly subsided. Instead, she wanted to reach out and hug her best friend.
Zhu Ci on the side glanced coldly at Xu Zhiyang's pocket. He never expected that not only was there Li Huiyin, but now there was also Lu Nian.
The road to pursuing his wife is bumpy, and there are too many people who are thinking about Xu Zhiyang.
The man frowned and looked serious, but in his heart he had already rushed back to his past self and punched the girl he had liked.
He is not gay, he doesn't like men, but he likes Xu Zhiyang.
Qin Shiyu really didn't want to understand the love, hate and vengeance between the adults, but as an intellectually evolved person, he could tell what the brothers were thinking at a glance.
Qin Shiyu: Sigh... It's another day of trying hard to be transparent.
"Is Enshi District of H City just ahead?" Xu Zhiyang looked through the telescope but didn't find anything unusual.
Zhu Ci took it and observed it for a while: "There may be many surviving humans here."
Qin Shiyu asked: "Brother, what did you find out?"
"Humanity's defense," Zhu Ci said, "Let Momo pass."
"Okay." Qin Shiyu didn't ask in detail. He would know in a while anyway.
Half an hour later, Momo entered a street. The streets on both sides were dilapidated, with huge and dense plants. The buildings and roads were all occupied by plants.
Momo paused.
Xu Zhiyang looked down and saw three rows of sharp spikes made of wood standing on the street, blocking the entire way.
For Momo, this height is easy to jump over.
But we don't know the specific situation inside, and it would be dangerous to enter rashly.
Mu Ke offered, "How about I turn into a golden eagle and fly higher to observe?"
"This is the only way right now." Zhu Ci was about to nod.
Suddenly, Xu Zhiyang's pocket moved, and a broad-eared fox the size of a kitten crawled out.
