Chapter 133 Earthquake
Su Qing had been out for a while and collected a lot of things. When her backpack was no longer full, she went back to the base to empty it out.
When he went out again, there was a rich man by his side.
The dog protested strongly against Su Qing's repeated abandonment of it at the base. When he saw her come back, he followed her closely and stayed by her side all the time.
I had no choice but to bring it out with me.
The jeep was driving on the road, Su Fuguier sat upright in the passenger seat, looking up and around.
"Why are you following me?" Su Qing glanced sideways at Fu Gui'er. "Being outside in the wind and sun, bouncing around everywhere, is nowhere near as comfortable as staying in the base."
Fuguier tilted his head, staring at her with his big golden eyes without blinking. Then he leaned forward and licked Su Qing's hand with his tongue. The warm and soft touch made her heart soften.
"You really have to endure hardship." She said this, but her hands were gentle, gently stroking Fuguier's head. Fuguier squinted his eyes comfortably, and a slight snoring sound came from his throat.
The scenery outside the car window passed by quickly, and the afterglow of the setting sun coated the earth with a layer of flowing gold. Seeing that it was getting dark and there was no town around, Su Qing decided to sleep in the wilderness tonight.
She drove the car into an open area in the woods and stopped. A man and a dog got out of the car. Then she took out the RV and set up camp.
As night fell, Su Qing finally prepared dinner for one person and one dog. She stood up and looked around, but did not see Fuguier.
She called out, "Fuguier, it's time to eat!"
The voice echoed in the quiet woods, but Fuguier still didn't come back. Su Qing went into the RV and looked around but couldn't find him. Then he walked deeper into the woods, tentatively calling out, "Su Fuguier?"
Something seemed to be shaking among the trees. Su Qing took out his gun and held it in his hand, approaching cautiously, "Fuguier! Is that you? Come out quickly!"
The next second, a silver-gray figure jumped out, ran quickly to Su Qing, and excitedly "woofed" at her twice.
Seeing Fuguier, she felt relieved and put away her gun. "Why are you so happy? Don't run around at night, it's dangerous. Let's go back and eat." Then she turned and walked towards the RV.
Fuguier blinked his smart eyes, turned his head to look at the bushes where it jumped out, and hummed as if saying something. Seeing that Su Qing was getting farther and farther away, he had to give up and follow him.
After dinner, the man and the dog returned to the RV. Fuguier squatted by the window and looked outside from time to time after getting in the car. Su Qing leaned over to look out curiously, "Is there anything outside?"
In the pitch-black woods, only the RV emitted a little light. The surroundings were silent and she really couldn't see anything.
"Awooo!!!" Fuguier howled with his head raised, then turned around and curled up on the sofa to sleep.
Su Qing sighed, turned back to bed and turned off the lights.
In the early morning, there was a rustling sound in the RV. Fuguier tiptoed carefully to the door, raised one paw and hit the door button, and the door slowly opened. He turned his head to look at Su Qing, and saw that she was sleeping soundly in the bed without noticing. He turned around and quickly jumped out of the car and ran towards the woods.
Su Qing, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes instantly, stood up and followed him out quietly.
Fuguier ran deep into the forest and then crossed a bush. As the leaves swayed, he vaguely revealed an off-road vehicle parked in the open space inside. He ran over and pried open the main driver's door.
A deep male voice came from afar, "Fuguier..."
Su Qing half-crouched, his sight blocked by the car so he couldn't see anyone. He could only hear the intermittent voice, "Didn't we agree not to come over here...Okay, okay, I can't go..."
Interspersed between the man's words were Fuguier's high and low whimpers and cries.
Su Qing was confused for a moment. This voice was...
She stood up and walked towards the SUV. In the sunlight, Qin Yu's tall figure had his back to her, half-crouching and talking to Fu Gui'er, "Okay, go back quickly. She'll be worried if you're gone."
He stood up, turned around, and their eyes met.
The smile on Qin Yu's face froze slightly, and a hint of panic flashed in his eyes, "I...you..." The first commander of the special forces in the army, who has always been famous throughout the army for his decisiveness in killing, was so nervous that he couldn't speak.
"Have you been following me?" Su Qing stared at him in a daze.
Qin Yu's throat rolled slightly, and his usually cool and steady voice was a little tense at this moment, "Yes..."
The noises outside the RV late at night, the dangers she easily resolved, the coincidences she thought were just good luck, all these illusions turned out to be the person in front of her secretly helping her.
Qin Yu calmed down and explained, "I accepted the mission. The military... sent me out to find Luo Xinxin's whereabouts. It was just a side trip..."
He had been in the capital to stabilize the political situation. As soon as the situation stabilized, he withdrew and went to the Dawn Base to find Su Qing. After asking Fang Qing, he learned that she had gone out to look for Luo Xinxin. He applied for an overseas mission and chased her all the way until he finally found her whereabouts.
He deliberately hid and followed far behind, and Su Qing didn't notice him at all. But this time she brought Fuguier with her, and the little guy spotted him as soon as he came out, and kept trying to pull him out. Perhaps his behavior was really abnormal, so Su Qing discovered it.
"Since we have the same goal, why hide? Let's just go together." Su Qing replied simply after hearing this.
"Fuguier, take him back to the RV for dinner!"
Fuguier sat on the ground, watched Su Qing turn around and leave, and yelled at Qin Yu.
"See, we told you to come over and join us, but you still got discovered! Let's go!"
Qin Yu looked at Fuguier with his head held high and followed him with a wry smile.
The two of them and the dog were eating at a folding table when Su Qing suddenly asked, "One night, I thought I heard a wolf howling. When I woke up in the morning, nothing was wrong outside, so I thought I was dreaming... Were there really wolves?"
Qin Yu swallowed the bread in his mouth and nodded, "Well... you were frying meat outside, and the aroma of the meat wafted into the air, attracting the attention of the wolves roaming nearby. They waited until midnight until you fell asleep before surrounding you."
Su Qing was stunned. She didn't expect that she would run into a pack of wolves just by chance when she was frying steak on a whim. "Then the sound of fighting later... was it you? You are not hurt, right?" She glanced at him nervously. Facing a pack of wolves alone was scary just thinking about it.
"I'm fine. It's just a few crippled wolves. They don't have much fighting power." He smiled, but didn't elaborate on what happened that day. "Where are you going today?"
Su Qing thought for a moment and said, "I plan to go to Province C. I've never been there before."
Seeing that Su Qing had finished eating, Qin Yu stood up and said, "Let's pack up and go. Can we take my car?"
"Okay." She nodded and put the RV and the table and chairs on the ground into her backpack.
…
After the off-road vehicle entered the territory of Province C, the road became very bumpy. The road surface was often either severely cracked and sunken, or blocked by trees and rocks. The occasional buildings on both sides of the road almost all collapsed.
Looking at the scene outside the car window, Qin Yu frowned, "It seems that there was an earthquake here before."
"After all, there are many active earthquake zones in Province C, and there have been constant large and small earthquakes." Su Qing's sight fell on a collapsed building. Under the brick wall was a corpse, one of its hands stretched straight forward, as if asking for help. Its body had long since rotted into bones, and no one knew how long it had been there.
As the car drove farther and farther away, the bones turned into a small dot in the rearview mirror and finally disappeared. Su Qing felt a sense of unease inexplicably in his heart.
She believed in her sixth sense very much. Usually when this feeling appeared, something bad would happen. But before she could think about it, a voice suddenly came from the system in her mind.
"Zombie traces have been discovered in the town ahead! Host, please be alert!"
"Could it be Luo Xinxin?"
"Unable to confirm."
Su Qing looked up and saw a small town in front of her. She said, "There are zombies in the town ahead. Let's go in and take a look."
"good."
Qin Yu gripped the steering wheel tightly, and the off-road vehicle bumped forward on the bumpy road. However, it could not go any further when it reached the edge of the town. The road in front was severely damaged and could only be entered on foot.
The two people and the dog struggled to walk through the town. There were collapsed buildings and facilities everywhere around them. Su Qing walked in front and came to a building according to the system's instructions.
"It's right here. There are about a dozen zombies inside, but I'm not sure if Luo Xinxin is among them." Su Qing took out the inhibitor gun from his backpack and handed it to Qin Yu. "There are only six potion bullets in this gun. I only have two here. Once you use them up, they're gone. Use with caution."
After saying that, she took out the mini drone and Qin Yu controlled it to circle outside the building several times, but no trace of zombies was found.
Qin Yu put down the drone remote control and said, "Looks like we have no choice but to go inside. I'll go in and take a look first. You stay outside and keep watch."
He turned to leave, but his arm was suddenly grabbed by Su Qing, "No, I want to go in with you." For some reason, she always felt that if she didn't go in, something bad would happen.
Due to Su Qing's strong request, Su Fuguier was finally arranged to guard the door, and the two of them entered the building.
The building was damaged everywhere, the floor tiles were cracked and bulging, and large pieces of bricks on the hall walls were falling off.
The first floor was visible to the end at a glance, but nothing was found. When Su Qing was following Qin Yu and was about to head to the stairwell, her eyes suddenly shook and she lost her balance and fell forward.
"Be careful." Qin Yu turned around quickly and supported her.
"What's going on..." Before Su Qing could finish his words, the building began to shake violently, and broken tiles and wall dust fell to the ground.
"It's an earthquake!" Qin Yumeng hugged Su Qing in his arms, steadied his body and wanted to take her away from here.
Another violent shaking came, and Qin Yu felt his back hit the wall heavily. Something seemed to fall on his head. He hurriedly protected Su Qing's head. Then he felt a tearing pain in his arm, and a warm liquid slowly flowed down his arm. Through the flying dust, he saw a corner of the ceiling collapsing, and the twisted steel bars pierced through the concrete wall, revealing a black hole.
"Qin Yu!" Su Qing was held in Qin Yu's arms, her hands tightly grasping the clothes on his chest. Although she couldn't see, she smelled a strong smell of blood.
He is injured!
Qin Yu hugged Su Qing and ran out staggeringly, and the cracks in the ground under their feet became bigger and bigger.
Fuguier stood at the door and roared anxiously. Just as he was about to go in, he saw his owner and others running out.
We are almost at the door.
With a "swish", Qin Yu and Su Qing's figures disappeared in front of Fuguier, steel bars and concrete fell, and the building collapsed at an extremely fast speed.
