Chapter 294: Skinny Little Black Tree
Liu Yu and his team entered the hotel suite and threw the two zombie bodies out of the window first. Then Chen Shuhao promptly installed the glass window back.
Xu Shuyao pressed her ear to the door of the suite to listen for any noise outside. Sure enough, she heard the slow, dragging footsteps of the zombies.
Everyone tacitly agreed not to make any noise and each found a sofa or stool to sit down and rest.
When Li Guangzong lay down on the soft bed with his arms and legs spread out, he sighed unconsciously and muttered softly, "This bed is so comfortable. I haven't slept on such a soft place in a long time..."
But he only lay there for a moment before he quickly stood up and helped his teammates pack up.
He is no longer the young master who has everything handed to him. They have to make necessary protective preparations if they want to stay here for one night.
Xiao Huang nimbly passed by the busy crowd, sniffing the ground carefully with his nose before circling and sitting next to Lingbao.
Everyone laughed when they saw it so relaxed, but then they also realized that this room was quite safe.
Huanhuan sat timidly on the other side of Lingbao, staring at the big golden-haired dog with curiosity, wanting to touch it with her little hands but not daring to.
By the window, Xu Yang and others followed Zhuang Moxing's instructions and pasted the Qi-retaining talisman on the gap in the glass window to prevent the overly strong human smell from wafting out.
There might be some high-level zombies hiding in this zombie-saturated city, so it would be a good idea for them to be cautious.
The windows were sealed with Qi-gathering talismans, and everyone was carrying blue-gray tokens made by Zhuang Moxing, fully prepared.
Liu Yu immediately distributed some steamed buns to everyone for dinner. It was better to keep a low profile at this critical moment.
Someone needs to be arranged to keep watch by the window. At this moment, Liu Yu lets everyone eat first. She stands by the window and observes the zombies below gradually dispersing while eating buns.
Everyone was in good spirits that night, but Grandma Yang was worried that the children were still unconscious yesterday and would not be able to handle the long journey today, so she insisted on keeping watch tonight.
Li Guangzong was really embarrassed to let such an old grandmother Yang keep watch. After hearing this, he scratched the back of his head and said, "I will watch tonight. Everyone else should have a good rest. Tomorrow may bring some trouble. We need everyone!"
Li Guangzong had good intentions, but Xu Shuyao wanted to slap him when she heard it. What a jinx!
"Brother, please stop talking. Can't we just have a smooth journey? Why did something happen again?"
Li Guangzong finally reacted and covered his mouth with his hands. He quickly looked at Zhuang Moxing and Liu Yu and said, "Sister Yu, that's not what I meant!"
Zhao Bohong patted his shoulder and comforted him: "It's okay, but no one will take my words seriously. But don't try to grab the night watch job, let my mom do it, I'll assist her and keep an eye on her. Xiaoyu, do you think it's okay?"
He knew what his mother was thinking. They hadn't been able to survive to this day without everyone's help. Besides, his mother had been in much better spirits recently, so keeping watch would be no problem for her.
After hearing this, Liu Yu didn't say anything, just nodded, and carried the sleepy Lingbao into the master bedroom that everyone had vacated.
Seeing that everyone was taking the time to wash and rest, Grandma Yang contentedly took a small stool and sat by the window, keeping a vigilant eye on the situation.
It was her first time on night watch and she was really nervous. She kept staring at the zombies wandering below in the moonlight, fearing that something might happen outside and she would not have time to report it.
It would be fine if she only had her life left, but she would feel guilty even in her grave for implicating these young children in the room.
Li Guangzong's low snoring gradually sounded in the suite. Xu Yang, who was barely squeezed in with him, raised the height of his pillow, and the snoring immediately disappeared.
The sky was getting darker and darker, and it was entering the early morning hours.
The streets outside were gradually becoming quiet, but at some point a bone-chilling north wind began to blow.
In addition to the occasional roars of zombies, there is also the rustling sound of snow blown by the strong wind.
Grandma Yang looked back at her son who was sitting beside her, and a warm feeling surged through her heart. Then she glanced out the window again, alert.
However, just as she turned around, a pair of shiny black eyes suddenly stared at her.
“Huh!”
Grandma Yang was startled, and Zhao Bohong immediately looked in the direction of her frightened gaze, and suddenly saw a very skinny little tree blown by the wind against the glass window.
He just thought it was an ordinary branch blown by the wind and wanted to speak to comfort his mother.
Unexpectedly, the little black tree suddenly started knocking on the glass windows frantically with countless dry and thin branches!
"Bang bang bang bang!"
Only then did Zhao Bohong see a pair of holes that looked like human eyes under the black and dry bark. The holes opened and closed as if they were very anxious.
The sleeping furniture was awakened by the unusual noise and sat up alertly. Liu Yu and Zhuang Moxing had already put on their coats and rushed to the window.
However, they didn't even have the chance to take a closer look at the small black tree. A burst of fire suddenly broke out in the center of the river not far from them.
The power of the explosion instantly reached them, and the faces of everyone in the hotel suite were reflected in the flames.
Liu Yu's pupils suddenly constricted, and he immediately raised a space shield to block. Everyone subconsciously used their arms to cover their eyes.
Their sight was almost blinded by the dazzling firelight, and they were unable to see for a moment.
In this explosion, everything around them was destroyed in an instant, whether it was the hotel suite or the talisman attached to the window.
The little black tree jumped up and down in the firelight because of the heat. The moment Liu Yu glanced at it, he also put a space shield on it!
