Chapter 35 Tian Decheng was bitten
Song Xiaomei looked at the pile of vegetables on the ground with worry: "Our girl looks normal. Are we too extreme?"
"The doctor said there's nothing wrong," Tian Decheng said. "Don't you know that Old Liu's youngest daughter went crazy before the college entrance exam? It's just that she was under too much pressure!"
"The more normal our daughter seems, the more likely she is to be wrong. She's been sensible since she was young, so maybe she doesn't want to worry us!"
Tian Yao felt extremely sad after hearing this!
"...Why are they talking about man-eating monsters? She studies every day and doesn't watch TV or anything like that. Where did this weird idea come from? I don't see anything like that in their textbooks," Song Xiaomei said distressedly. "My daughter has already been admitted to university, and as parents, we still have to read their high school textbooks!"
Hearing this, Tian Yao was really at a loss whether to laugh or cry!
"Isn't there still a free follow-up visit? Why don't we invite Dr. Lu over?" Tian Decheng whispered to his wife, "I heard they can provide some psychological counseling!"
Song Xiaomei agreed immediately: "Of course you can. Let's go to the coffee shop! Young people like that place!"
Oh my God! Tian Yao buried her face heavily in the pillow. Now she really didn’t like her hearing. It was a sin that her hearing was too good.
Suddenly, Tian Yao remembered something!
She dropped out of school as she wished, but how could she establish a good relationship with Li Zhen after leaving school?
In short, Tian Yao had no plans to see Lu Qu again.
Before going to work every day, Tian Decheng and his wife would leave a lot of pocket money for Tian Yao, asking her to go out and relax more and not to be bored at home and have wild thoughts.
A few days later, Tian Yao had nearly a thousand yuan in her pocket: "What can I buy with this money?"
"I also went home to get some money." Duan Lei took out a card and put it in Tian Yao's hand: "What do you want to buy?"
"You wouldn't have stolen your family's savings, would you?" Tian Yao looked at the card. She knew that Duan Lei's family situation was similar to hers, and it was impossible for Duan Lei to have any savings of his own.
Seeing Duan Lei nod, Tian Yao also thought of her family's savings: "But what can we buy with this money?"
"Let's buy more food. Didn't you say that food would become a scarce commodity?" Duan Lei suggested, "We can store the food in the basement!"
"Do you know that there is a kind of superpower called space power?" Tian Yao despised Duan Lei. She wanted to buy food, but she had no space. Where could she put the food after buying it?
Duan Lei took the banknotes and card from Tian Yao: "I've studied it and know what to buy. Just give it to me!"
"Hey—" Before Tian Yao could stop Duan Lei, the boy had already skillfully climbed over the balcony and left: "You little bastard, you ran so fast! I haven't even told you about the land area yet!"
In the factory where Tian Decheng and Song Xiaomei work, the roar of machines is deafening.
Workers in various positions are busy.
One of the machines broke down and a worker was repairing it!
Suddenly, the worker's body tilted and fell to the ground.
"Old Xu——" Tian Decheng and several workers saw this scene and hurried over.
Tian Decheng helped Old Xu up. The worker, known as Old Xu, was pale and his eyes were closed. "Old Xu? Old Xu? What's wrong with you?"
Another worker reached out and touched Lao Xu's forehead: "It's so hot! This guy has a fever! He came to work with such a high fever!"
"Old Xu, wake up, I'll take you to the hospital," Tian Decheng shook Old Xu.
Old Xu looked like he was dead, not moving at all. Tian Decheng looked at him and said, "Brothers, help me, help him get on my back! I'll take him to the infirmary first."
Two workers helped Old Xu up and put him on Tian Decheng's back. Old Xu's head was drooping, and no one noticed that Old Xu's eyes were open. They were not normal eyes, but gray.
He slowly opened his mouth and bit Tian Decheng's shoulder.
"Ouch!" Tian Decheng screamed.
The other workers hurriedly separated Lao Xu from Tian Decheng's back. Tian Decheng's shoulder was covered in blood and flesh, and Lao Xu had bitten off a piece of flesh.
Several of the workers who were helping were not paying attention and were bitten by Old Xu. Everyone endured the pain, tied up Old Xu who was biting people like crazy, and sent him to the hospital.
Tian Decheng endured it until the end of the day. When he returned home, Song Xiaomei immediately noticed the wound on his shoulder and asked, "Did you have a fight?"
My dad is such an honest man, how could he get into a fight? Tian Yao heard her mother Song Xiaomei exclaim and hurried out of the room: "My dad would get into a fight? Are you kidding me?"
When Tian Yao saw Tian Decheng's bloody shoulder, she gasped. There was a piece of flesh missing from Tian Decheng's shoulder, and the wound was faintly blue-gray. This—this was bitten by a zombie! Tian Yao asked anxiously, "Dad, did one of your colleagues have a fever? Were you bitten by someone with a fever?"
"It's okay! Old Xu is delirious from the fever," Tian Decheng said to his wife, "Wife, bring me the gentian violet and apply it on me. It will be fine!"
"Did you really not get into a fight?" Song Xiaomei brought out the gentian violet and continued to scold Tian Decheng, "How could someone with a fever bite? Did you get into a fight and you're too embarrassed to tell anyone when you get home?"
"Dad..." Tian Yao was extremely distressed. At this time in her previous life, she was studying in another city and had no idea what had happened at home. Now, seeing the wound on her father's shoulder, she understood completely. Her father had been bitten by a co-worker who had developed a fever and had mutated. Then, he had bitten her mother again when he got home.
Song Xiaomei applied purple medicine to Tian Decheng's wound. Tian Decheng grimaced in pain and said, "Wife, be gentle!"
"Si...I really didn't fight. Am I a fighter?"
"Look, look, biting off such a big piece of flesh, doesn't it hurt?" Song Xiaomei's eyes were red with distress: "Why is the wound still black?"
Tian Yao couldn't help but reach out and hugged Song Xiaomei, sobbing, "Mom, do you know that if Dad doesn't catalyze his superpowers in six hours, he'll become like that Old Xu, biting people everywhere!"
Song Xiaomei glared at her daughter: "You're talking nonsense again!"
"Isn't your father fine?"
Tian Decheng frowned and recalled the scene: "Old Xu's face was gray and blue, it was scary!"
"It felt hot to the touch, and then it was cold as ice. Girl, tell your father about that monster again."
"Decheng, just go ahead and make trouble with your daughter!" Song Xiaomei turned away angrily, ignoring her husband and daughter.
"Mom, listen carefully too," Tian Yao stared at the gradually darkening wound on her father's shoulder. "In the apocalypse, there's a virus spreading among humans. I call it the zombie virus. If someone is bitten or scratched by a zombie and doesn't die, there are two possibilities: one is to evolve various superpowers, and the other is to turn into a man-eating zombie!"
"Is that so?" Tian Decheng said with a smile, "I sleep alone in the bedroom at night, and Xiaomei locks me in!"
"You really believe Yaoyao?" Song Xiaomei rolled her eyes at the father and daughter, feeling both angry and amused. "Anyway, I just don't believe it!"
Tian Decheng didn't actually believe it, but Old Xu did what his daughter said. First he had a fever, then he had a terrifying chill, and he even bit people: "You sleep on the sofa in the living room tonight, Yaoyao, come and lock the door!"
