Chapter 100 Chapter 100 Poison Cloud
There is bread and juice in hand, and ham slices and biscuits next to it.
While sitting on the bed eating breakfast, Jiang Xi secretly glanced at the tall and cold figure in front of her.
Xiao Liang was packing things, including the sheets they slept on last night, the medicine box for her medical treatment, and the supply box.
There weren't many things, so he had almost sorted them out.
Once she finishes her breakfast, they can set off.
Xiao Liang said that they had to speed up their journey to the hospital and let the doctor treat her as soon as possible.
Therefore, there will be no stopping to rest along the way.
Jiang Xi had never heard of any successful case of curing the zombie virus.
But she knew very well that if bitten by a zombie, she would become ill within a few seconds at the latest, be assimilated into one of them, and lose her own sense of self.
Even those with special abilities are no exception.
However, since she seemed to be able to maintain occasional lucidity, she also felt that she might be saved.
Perhaps her condition was so unique because she was scratched rather than bitten? Also, the injury was located farther from the brain... Rabies seems to work in the same way.
However, the altered appearance of her body, with her lower body almost transformed into a zombie-like appearance, constantly reminded her that she was not safe and that the virus had indeed invaded her body.
Jiang Qian didn’t know whether she would be rejected by the human survivor base in her current condition, but Xiao Liang was undoubtedly her only support now, and she could only rely on him to survive.
Before leaving, Xiao Liang squatted down in front of her and checked the wound on her leg again.
Now, even her other leg showed signs of stiffness.
After bandaging Jiang Xi's wound, he pulled down her trouser legs and helped her put on her shoes.
"Yesterday I..."
There was still a trace of memory left in Jiang Xi's mind before the blackout. Her mouth was opened so wide that it was almost dislocated.
Why is her mouth open so wide?
Jiang Qian asked cautiously, "Did it bite you?"
The memories from her blurred consciousness could not be retained in her brain. She lived in a daze, as if she was only living half of her life every day, and the other half needed to be supplemented from other people's mouths.
"No." Xiao Liang denied.
After helping her put on her shoes, he stood up. Jiang Xi didn't remember what happened last night.
If that was the case, then she probably didn't remember her "requests" and compliments to him in bed.
It was hard to tell whether he was happy or lonely. After all, he had begun to suspect that she mistook him for someone else, the man she loved in her heart...
The vinegar that you can’t eat is the sourest.
Xiao Liang said calmly, "You are very good."
Hearing him say this, Jiang Qian secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She was really afraid that she would lose control and bite someone, which would annoy him.
Even if he said he liked her, she couldn't feel completely at ease.
She is now half a zombie, and Xiao Liang is a zombie hunter!
They are opposed to each other and are mortal enemies.
Will he hunt himself?
Jiang Xi was hesitant. She was very afraid of Xiao Liang, but she could only rely on him to survive.
It was so uncomfortable...the two of them seemed to be back to square one.
She was always so humble in front of him, never had sovereignty, and could only depend on him to survive.
Her legs were stiff and she had no feeling at all. Jiang Qian used her arms to support her body, trying to stand up and follow Xiao Liang.
However, she was unable to move forward until Xiao Liang put all the supplies back into the trunk of the car.
It seems like she can't walk anymore?
Jiang Qian looked at her legs, her eyes filled with fear.
But soon, she moved a few steps.
Xiao Liang held her in his arms like a princess and carried her to the car.
Jiang Qian leaned in his arms, hugged his neck, and looked at his profile quietly. A sense of security and protection enveloped her and dispelled her doubts.
It's so strange, why would she think Xiao Liang would hurt her?
He obviously still cherished her as much as he did back then.
Xiao Liang put Jiang Xi in the back seat of the car.
But before he could close the car door, the driver's seat, the main driver's seat and the front passenger seat were all occupied at once.
Xiao Liang: "..."
Uninvited guest one and uninvited guest two turned their heads.
Actually, they can’t be considered uninvited guests. We are all acquaintances now.
Xiao Liang: "I don't think I invited you?"
"I'm the driver, have you forgotten?" Han Xu looked surprised.
Obviously, he had a good sense of identity. If he was a servant for one day, he would be a servant for the rest of his life.
Until Jiang Xi is healed, his sins cannot be redeemed.
"Give me a ride," Wu Yuan raised his hand to signal, "I want to go to the hospital too."
"We're all in the same business, you wouldn't be so cold-blooded as to kick me out of the car, would you?"
As he said this, he showed the bandage on his chest. Didn't he know who cut him?
Xiao Liang naturally knew that the reason they followed him so persistently was definitely not as simple as they said, but since they came to him on their own initiative, he had no reason to refuse. He could just tell them to do whatever he wanted.
In this way, he can take better care of Jiang Xi.
In this way, the group of four set off, heading towards the north of the continent.
The journey was dull and tedious. Winter had not yet passed, and the scenery outside the window was desolate and lonely, making people lose their energy and feel depressed.
But Jiang Xi was in good condition and she did not lose consciousness for the entire morning.
Of course, the two zombie hunters in the front row were also keeping an eye on her movements at all times, not daring to relax at all.
The reason why they followed "shamelessly" was quite simple.
Xiao Liang was completely bewitched by this female zombie. Even if she wanted to bite him, he wouldn't resist...
If this continues, something bad will happen sooner or later!
This female zombie doesn't seem to have much attack power, and the harm it causes is relatively small, so it can be barely ignored.
But if she harms Xiao Liang and turns him into a zombie, that would be a big deal.
If Xiao Liang really turns into a zombie, they must immediately notify the brothers and sisters in the circle to stay away from him and make sure they don't accidentally kill him one day.
In this world, having Bai Lan is enough for them to bear.
The tense atmosphere in the front row formed a sharp contrast with the relaxed atmosphere in the back row.
Jiang Qian leaned on the car window, looking out aimlessly, her eyelids gradually becoming heavy.
Suddenly, many dense black dots in the distance came into her sight.
Her eyes suddenly widened. Was it her kind?
No, now it can be said that we are no longer of her kind.
They were a group of surviving hikers in the process of a large-scale migration...
She remembered Jingcheng saying that such large-scale human migration usually occurred when a guild base collapsed, the psychics dispersed, and were unable to maintain the operation of the survivor area. Therefore, ordinary human survivors would leave their original guild in groups and look for a new shelter.
Moreover, judging by the dense number of these people, the collapsed guild was a large one.
The Great Guild? It's nearby again.
Jiang Xi's mood became extremely depressed and she could hardly breathe.
Her emotions were fluctuating violently, and she was struggling internally. She held on to the window sill with both hands, and stared at the people walking in the distance, wanting to see them more clearly.
Of course, all this did not escape the watchful eyes of the two zombie hunters in the front row.
They made eye contact in horror.
“…”There’s nothing wrong with this state?
A proper hunting posture.
She wants to bite someone!!
The accelerator was under Han Xu's feet, and he stepped on it hard.
There is no speed limit for the modified car, and it shoots out like a rocket under the action of acceleration.
Jiang Xi was directly shaken back from the window to the backrest of the back seat.
This trick is called "cutting the bait."
If she doesn't see anyone, she won't be able to bite anyone!
Who wouldn't call him a genius?
Fortunately, the car eventually overtook the group of human migrants, and they were left far behind.
However, the lingering sorrow froze on Jiang Xi's face.
She stared blankly ahead, motionless, as if she was thinking of something sad.
Beside her, Xiao Liang looked at her.
Is she thinking about her "brother"?
Although he didn't say it, Xiao Liang really cared about it in his heart.
He was not so narcissistic as to identify himself with the person Jiang Ying was calling him.
He felt that this ambiguous name was most likely related to the man in her heart.
But he was worried that the man she called brother was not a good person.
He is definitely not a good person.
She will only be obsessed with the deep love in her heart when her consciousness is unclear.
The most terrifying thing is that Xiao Liang now has a candidate in mind for the identity of "brother", and that person is a scumbag who is not worthy of her nostalgia at all!
Anger, injustice, and even a hint of jealousy made him feel like he was about to explode.
Xiao Liang's face still had that calm expression, like an emotionless machine.
“Fuck!”
Just then, there was a cry of surprise from the front row.
The voice came from Wu Yuan in the co-pilot seat. He raised the communicator in his hand and said, "How about we take a detour?"
The "Storm Chasers" group chat on the communicator was flashing a dangerous red exclamation mark.
At the same time, it is also an exclamation mark for urgent reminders.
It reported the coordinates of the latest white mist poisonous cloud storm.
Their current route just passes through the center of the poisonous cloud's eye!
Maybe I can even say hello to Bai Lan in the eye of the storm.
"So exciting?"
Compared to Wu Yuan's worry, Han Xu was excited, "Let's see who runs faster!"
Before he changed his career, he was a "wind chaser".
However, the profits that Zhuifeng brought him later were far less than what he would have earned from completing bounty missions. Moreover, the Bailan Poison Cloud did look intimidating to outsiders, but it did not cause any substantial harm to them, the zombie hunters. Over time, they were no longer afraid of it.
However, this time period is limited to the world before the zombie virus enters the third stage of the process.
Han Xu's excitement and eagerness to try made the veins in his temples throb wildly.
Wu Yuan: "..." I think you are not mentally normal.
"How long has it been since you last joined the group?" he asked.
This guy obviously hasn't realized the seriousness of the problem.
Han Xu: "I forgot."
This is not the key point, the key point is——
The co-pilot objected, but he agreed, one to one.
"What do you mean, boss?" Han Xu looked at Xiao Liang in the rearview mirror.
You know, if you really want to take a detour, the detour will be very long, with mountain roads on both sides, and it will take at least half a month more.
However, you can also stop and wait for the white mist poisonous cloud storm to completely pass.
It will take at least half a day. Isn't he very anxious?
Sure enough, three faint words came from the back row.
"Go ahead."
Before he finished speaking.
"Haha!" The driver applauded.
He knew Xiao Liang would agree.
"Speechless." The co-pilot raised his head weakly.
Why on earth did he want to get involved in this mess?
It was at most ten minutes' drive away, and they were getting closer and closer to the edge of the poisonous cloud storm.
Dust was raised all around and visibility dropped to zero.
White mist, poisonous cloud...?
This proper noun brought back horrible memories for Jiang Xi.
She was shaking with fear.
Then, she was pulled into a strong and powerful embrace.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Xiao Liang held her in his arms.
Surrounded by this familiar smell, Jiang Xi's heart calmed down a little.
As the vehicle continued to move forward, the sky around it became darker and darker, with billowing smoke and dust covering the sky, as if one was on a front line with artillery shells and flames flying.
The car body was still shaking, as if it had driven onto a rough gravel mountain road, the road so broken that it almost broke the car apart...
Suddenly, all the vibrations disappeared.
The car returned to a flat surface, but it was pitch black outside the window, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.
Only the car's headlights emitted a faint light, barely illuminating the less than half a meter ahead.
They are already in the storm!
Jiang Qian's face was pressed against Xiao Liang's chest, absorbing the warmth of his body and feeling the strength of his embrace. These supported her will and told her not to be afraid.
As long as he's around, she'll be fine.
She prayed in her heart that the sky would brighten soon so that they could get through this terrible storm quickly.
Han Xu was still racing, and Wu Yuan silently concentrated his mental strength to help the car and make sure it didn't overturn.
There are three zombie hunters on this car. Theoretically, the safety factor is higher than the rocking car in front of the supermarket.
Nothing will happen.
The black ghost face outside the car changed back and forth, opening its bloody mouth towards the car traveling in the poisonous cloud.
But no matter how hard they tried, there was no way to damage the car at all.
The scorching mental barrier will evaporate into water vapor any zombie that tries to approach.
Jiang Qian closed her eyes tightly, enduring with great difficulty, trying to calm her wildly beating heart.
At this moment, a faint voice, like a whisper from the abyss, rang out in her ear...
That was the gentle call she could hear countless times in her dreams at midnight.
"Baby……"
