Chapter 16 Chapter 16 Discipline
In one hand was a woman's soft arm, while in the other hand was a cold knife that could kill people.
But even if Xiao Liang really wanted to kill at that moment.
How could he really kill someone in front of Jiang Xi?
She is so timid, this will be a shadow in her life.
He is always calm and has self-control many times greater than that of ordinary people.
Put the knife behind his back and he won't attack again.
And the hand holding Jiang Xi's arm never let go.
Jiang Qian kept looking at him, watching him retract his angry aura and turn back into the familiar Xiao Liang who was as cold as a piece of ice and without any warmth.
Meanwhile, she was waiting.
Waiting for him to give me a reasonable explanation...
Wait until he tells him in person that what Lu Suye asked Lin Yuan to get was a gift for him. What was so shameful about it?
She didn't wait.
But he also got Xiao Liang's "guarantee".
He said he would tell her one day.
But definitely not now.
Xiao Liang's voice was low and his tone was still calm, but Jiang Qian could detect a hint of earnestness, even pleading, in it.
This Xiao Liang was so unfamiliar that she felt like he had become another person...
No, I became a person.
He was no longer so high and mighty, as if nothing in this world could catch his eye or move his heart.
Instead, he was a humble mortal who prostrated himself before her, begging her not to explore further.
It made Jiang Qian feel that...
He also has weaknesses, fears, and secrets that he doesn't want others to know.
They are equal.
The rare display of weakness by someone who has always been in a strong position can have quite astonishing effects.
This made Jiang Qian, although she still had doubts and uneasiness in her heart, the balance of her choice had already tilted towards Xiao Liang.
She softened her heart.
Let’s talk about it later.
Anyway, she had plenty of opportunities to ask Xiao Liang along the way.
As for Lu Suye's terrifying gift, which was like a weasel paying a New Year's visit to a chicken...
Jiang Qian put the jar, which had been warmed by her grip, back on the coffee table, together with the jars that were scattered around in her vest bag.
They don't want it.
Seeing Jiang Ying's actions, he seemed to be relieved and also seemed to be deeply moved.
The hand that was holding her arm slowly moved down and found her hand.
Xiao Liang wrapped her hand in his own.
He held her so tightly, afraid that he would lose her.
That was a close call.
After losing it and then getting it back, he felt lucky to have escaped death, so he cherished it even more.
Xiao Liang's concern and sudden possessiveness also made Jiang Qian feel strange.
She felt that she and he were closer, not only in distance, but also in heart.
She took his hand back and they intertwined their fingers.
Xiao Liang took Jiang Xi's hand and turned to leave.
"What should we do about these?" Lin Yuan reacted quickly and immediately looked at Lu Suye.
Lu Suye's face was as gloomy as the clouds hanging low before a summer rainstorm. He cast his eyes on the tin can that was tilted to the side on the table and said nonchalantly,
"Open it all."
Open the can?
Jiang Xi heard it so carefully that her ears perked up.
Lin Yuan was like a boiling pot of water.
“…What? What!?”
He was so shocked and panicked that he couldn't utter a complete sentence.
Lu Suye was not joking.
In just a blink of an eye, with a hissing sound, all the iron sheets at the seals of the jars curled up as if they were being roasted by the high temperature.
A few wisps of colorless air were struggling to drill out along the torn gap.
It’s over!!!
It took less than a second from rushing into the storage area to get gasoline to pouring the entire barrel of gasoline onto the coffee table and flushing all the cans to the ground.
He had never lived so fast in his life!
It really adds fuel to the fire.
However, such a small flame is not enough to burn the entire tank, and of course, it cannot carry liquid fuel that is several times its own volume.
On the contrary, the passage that blocked the air was cut off and the small flames were extinguished one after another.
Several iron cans soaked in gasoline were like dead fish that could not move, and there was no sound.
The floor was uneven, with streams of gasoline flowing from high to low, one of which extended to Jiang Xi's feet.
She did not stop her steps as she left, and her steps froze together with the moment Xiao Liang stopped and looked back.
Jiang Xi couldn't take her eyes off the debris pouring out from the seal of the jar.
But no matter how hard she tried, she still couldn't tell what these vomit-like things were.
But her covered mouth and furrowed brows spoke volumes.
This stuff stinks.
Xiao Liang glanced at Lu Suye coldly.
He actually did that. How dare he do that?
More than a dozen jars were opened at the same time without exception.
Sometimes just one glance determines the outcome.
Lu Suye leaned on the sofa, his eyes full of suppressed hysteria.
But the corners of his mouth turned up, revealing a big smile, as if celebrating a victory in advance.
"I was so scared..."
In stark contrast, Lin Yuan kept patting his chest, taking a long breath, and was still in shock.
He felt relieved only after confirming that all the jars were "dead".
The strong stench of gasoline wrapped in the catalyst announced the failure of the tin can.
Fortunately, he acted quickly enough to destroy the source of these disasters.
otherwise--
"This amount should probably be enough to attract Bai Lan!!"
He didn't even care that he was just like Jiang Qian and the others, and had just met Lu Suye for a short time, and started chatting with him in a very familiar manner.
Lin Yuan made no secret of his caution about the name, but Lu Suye didn't care.
Having done so, he didn't mind creating an unprecedented chaos.
Turn this empty city into hell.
"Who is Bai Lan?" Jiang Xi couldn't help but feel curious.
Lin Yuan answered every question, "Zombie King!!"
"Zombie King?!" Jiang Xi was stunned.
Then, the blood in my body suddenly turned cold.
Combining all the previous signs, she keenly grasped the key.
"Are these tin cans used to attract zombies?"
Although it was a question, she used a declarative tone.
The truth cannot be disputed.
"Yes." Lin Yuan nodded.
This small iron can, similar to a beverage can, is an SSS-level hazardous item made in a laboratory.
Because its effects were so abnormal, to the point that it should not have been invented, the laboratory classified it as a failed waste.
But countless facts have repeatedly proved that waste may be treasures placed in the wrong place.
One man's meat may be another man's poison.
Its effectiveness is popular among a very small group of people, and this group, although small, cannot be ignored, has been bid up to a price a hundred times higher than that of source gold.
Simply because the rewards it can bring are also extremely generous.
Therefore, this type of tin can has always been produced and supplied in small quantities.
As for the label with only a red X, it is not a name, but the brand code of the laboratory that produced it, Lingyue Bio.
The specific ingredients of this jar are kept secret.
The name given by the zombie research academic community is "zombie pheromone", which is a medium to attract large numbers of zombies to rush in crazily.
But people still prefer to call it affectionately:
"bait".
-
These jars used to attract zombies are Xiao Liang’s favorite things.
It is not difficult to conclude that Xiao Liang likes to use these jars to attract zombies the most.
Attract zombies?!?
Jiang Xi's face looked a little ugly.
What a niche word.
She didn't understand it wrongly.
"The main source of income for zombie hunters is hunting zombies, especially high-level zombies above level A that are attracted by bait. The brains of these zombies are sold on the black market and are invaluable goods."
Lu Suye was unhurried, his face full of self-mockery.
As the necessary bait to attract those high-level zombies, he sighed slightly, looking distressed.
"These jars of mine aren't cheap either..."
Still hard to find.
He wanted to give Xiao Liang a big gift, allowing him to attract high-level zombies with crystals in their brains at will and obtain the most valuable thing in the world. It can be said that he did it completely out of kindness, but it ended up in this situation.
No one could have imagined it.
The truth that was revealed unexpectedly turned out to be like this?
No wonder they didn't let her open it before. It turns out that opening it would cause such a terrible thing.
Jiang Xi's mind was in great confusion.
On the one hand, she was shocked and frightened by Xiao Liang's behavior of actively luring zombies over.
He attracts large numbers of zombies that ordinary people avoid, and is like the King of Hell.
Therefore, Xiao Liang didn't want her to know that he was such a cold-blooded and ruthless meat grinder, which is why he stopped Lin Yuan from explaining...
As for the zombie crystals that Lu Suye mentioned, they looked very similar to the gem crystals in nature. She seemed to have seen Xiao Liang holding them in his hands.
Killing zombies and collecting crystals every day, over time, he became so rich that he could buy any plane he wanted! !
Everything makes sense.
On the other hand, there were traces of Lu Suye's dissatisfaction. They did give Xiao Liang a "precious" gift, but they were the ones who didn't appreciate it.
Xiao Liang even drew his sword against them, which was really inappropriate.
"I'm so sorry..."
He pulled Xiao Liang back with force, completely eliminating the pulling force.
It's normal that this guy doesn't understand the ways of the world.
But as Xiao Liang's "friend", I can now say without hesitation that she is his girlfriend.
Jiang Ying felt obligated to maintain her boyfriend's image in front of "outsiders".
"He didn't mean it."
Jiang Xi apologized to them on behalf of Xiao Liang, especially Lin Yuan who almost died.
"It's okay, cough cough..." Lin Yuan waved his hand and said that he was just helping to pick up the goods. These things were all obtained by Lu Suye.
"Sorry." Turning to Lu Suye, Jiang Qian's lips curled up with a hint of apology.
"I even picked out his favorite brand..."
Lu Suye seemed to be still immersed in the treasure he destroyed in a moment of "impulse".
However, when I think about it, I have already done it and it is difficult to undo what has been done.
"Forget it." He was also very generous.
At this point, the matter was resolved satisfactorily.
The people around her were feeling extremely uneasy and helpless. Xiao Liang pinched her so hard that it almost broke her fingers.
Jiang Xi really wanted to comfort this man who was more than a head taller than her, telling him not to be nervous. It wasn't abnormal to like killing zombies, and there was nothing to hide.
She won't look at him with tinted glasses, and at the same time, this won't affect his handsome and cool image in her mind, so he doesn't have to worry at all.
But for the sake of face, Jiang Xi thought that she should say these words when they were alone.
Just as they were about to go out, Jiang Yongzhuang had already jumped into the car and was waiting.
But in that instant, something flashed through Jiang Xi's mind.
A strange feeling arose spontaneously.
As she stopped again, Xiao Liang's heart sank to the bottom of the lake.
Sunk there forever.
Jiang Qian turned around and asked Lu Suye,
"How do you know he likes this brand?"
Of course, this is also the most powerful pheromone bait that can be produced by current technology, and it can attract the highest level of zombies.
An end is often accompanied by a beginning.
"Grizzlytown,"
When he said this place name, a strange light of excitement flashed in Lu Suye's eyes, almost too bright to be contained, just like a full moon night, so bright that it poured out tons of enthusiasm in the eyes of moon-worshiping creatures.
"There are jars like that out there."
——Zombie pheromone bait produced by Lingyao Biological.
Jiang Ting was stunned.
Grizzly Town?
The place where she met Xiao Liang.
It is not surprising that there would be such a jar there, as Xiao Liang had been there before.
But what truly shattered her was the exact location where the Spirit Key Biological Jar appeared.
In front of the wide intersection in the center of the town, on the road opposite the convenience store.
A coordinate point where a telephone pole stands upright.
Jiang Yongzhuang widened his eyes and stared at the bird picture pasted on the telephone pole for a long time.
Lu Suye's description was so detailed that it seemed as if he was there at the time.
The road next to the convenience store at the intersection in the town center...
Jiang Xi was a little afraid to breathe. Was that the place where she stopped the car to buy a phone card?
Lu Suye himself couldn't leave, but he contacted his friends to help him go to Grizzly Town.
He generously admitted that he deliberately wanted to win Jiang Si's favor in this way.
Ever since the conversation in the car that day, when she told Lu Suye about her past experiences that were a mixture of truth and lies...
He came up with the idea and immediately started preparing.
He asked friends in the community to retrieve some things that meant a lot to her but that she didn't have time to take away from her former residence.
Like photos or something.
Even photos with my ex? (He's so sweet.)
But unfortunately, his friend failed to find anything valuable for Jiang Xi.
There’s no way you can find it.
So, I started investigating this story which is 70% fake and 30% true.
The person sent by Lu Suye, Si Mu, eliminated all the useless noise and dug out all the value contained in the three points of truth.
Similarly, Xiao Liang, the top zombie hunter, never disappoints with his favorite brand of pheromones.
Ordinary zombie hunters dare not even touch the zombie pheromones produced by Lingyao Biological.
However, the phrase "keep a distance" did not work on Xiao Liang.
Who makes him the best among masters?
A vein hidden in the darkness unfolded, like gasoline spilled on the ground, mixed with bait crumbs, flowing freely along the undulations of the floor, leaving hideous lines.
convenience store.
Jiang Xi was indifferent to Lu Suye's research on her.
She just kept mumbling three words.
"convenience store……"
"Convenience store?" Lu Suye repeated the word that had obsessed her, a smile in his eyes. "What's wrong with convenience store?"
No one knows whether the smile in his eyes indicates that he knows something more.
Because Jiang Qian had turned her head and was re-examining the man in front of her, whom she thought she knew well enough and whom she had dreamed of having.
But at this moment, she felt as if she had never really known Xiao Liang, let alone possessed him.
This was the last sentence she said in a calm tone while she was still in a state of sanity before her emotions exploded.
"You put the bait to attract zombies next to my car?"
Jiang Xi's expression was one of both anger and amusement.
However, Xiao Liang could read the sadness in her eyes. All of this was just a pretense of restraint.
The words were spoken slowly...giving him plenty of time to respond.
He planned to respond with silence.
as always.
Xiao Liang didn't say anything.
He had no answer to this.
He just looked at Jiang Qian silently, watching her go from calm, to pain, and then to rage.
"Speak up! Did you put it there?"
It turns out that nothing has changed at all, nothing has changed.
Xiao Liang hasn't changed, not at all.
The moment the disguise was completely torn off, the fragile sand castle that Jiang Ying had built with great difficulty collapsed completely.
One wave hit and it was wiped out.
He is still the same Xiao Liang.
Xiao Liang, the one who had no way to deal with her as long as he didn't want to communicate!
Despair and helplessness swept through her world, taking away all the colors and leaving only a lonely gray.
Jiang Xi's tears rolled down her cheeks in big drops.
The water hit the pearl buttons of her tightly twisted coat, splashing water.
Those were the ones Xiao Liang had fastened on her one by one personally to protect her from wolves.
Who could have thought that he, who cared so much about her and loved her so much, would actually do such an intolerable evil act.
"Xiao Liang, you are crazy, you are simply a lunatic!!"
Although, when she said this, she looked more like a madman than the almost completely calm Xiao Liang, as she seemed to be losing control of her emotions. But she really couldn't bear it anymore.
Her eyes were filled with deep disappointment in the man she had chosen.
The angrier she appeared, the sadder she felt inside, because this was a reality she could not accept at all.
"You put that thing next to my car, are you trying to kill me?!"
Jiang Si collapsed.
"How much do you hate me?"
"How can anything happen to you when I'm here?"
Like a ray of light shining through ice.
Even if it was weak, it worked.
And just now, it was the first sound of ice cracking at the heart gate.
Xiao Liang finally couldn't help but responded to Jiang Wei's question.
He wanted to tell Jiang Qian that the reason he did this was to prove that he had enough capital and confidence to ensure that she would not be hurt at all!
But he forgot that this was also invisibly exposing him from the darkness where he was familiar with hiding to the sunlight that had nowhere to hide.
Jiang Xi choked up and looked up at the man in front of her, her eyes so broken that it made people feel distressed.
"You admit it?"
Her voice was soft, revealing the weakness of being exhausted.
Her eyelids blinked unconsciously, and her long, curled eyelashes were soaked and red.
She got the answer she wanted to know.
Although, it wasn't the one she wanted.
Xiao Liang: "..."
Avoiding the announcement will not help.
The admission without acknowledgment made it impossible to turn the situation around between him and this woman.
But as this jar revealed the story behind it, he needed to admit much more than that.
All of them must be settled one by one.
Admit it, how could he admit it?
Admit how he was deeply attracted to Jiang Ting and couldn't look away from her the first time he saw her breaking into this deserted town from outside her car?
Even though he only saw half of her profile, hidden by her long, curly hair, which looked very fragrant, his heart was still moved beyond words...
Admitting that he was like being bewitched and possessed, he could not remember what kind of powerful and evil force was controlling him, which made him unable to escape and act like a madman as she said.
While she was getting out of the car to go to the convenience store, he placed Lingyue Bio's zombie pheromone bait under her car.
Admit it, he didn't want to wait even a little longer, he wanted to see her one more time, to see her sooner.
So, the chance encounter at the convenience store is not really a chance encounter.
Oh……
It means "follow".
Admit that he followed her like a pervert?
We bumped into each other in the convenience store.
This time he was looking at her face from the front, staring at her without moving.
He even ignored her request for him to "borrow".
Finally, she pushed him away and ran away, then went back to the car and called him a pervert.
Stinky.Wolf!
The scolding is absolutely right.
Next, everything happened as he planned. This beautiful but fragile woman was frightened by the swarm of zombies.
Next to the fire outside the wooden house in the forest farm.
She was crying in the house.
And he sat quietly on the ground.
The peaceful chirping of insects and the brilliant starry sky brought him back to the countless nights he had spent alone.
And now, there is no difference.
The summer night breeze calmed the heat that was brewing in his heart.
He seems a little regretful?
Provoked a woman.
But all the familiar things that could calm him down were no match for the creaking sound of the wooden door being pushed open from the inside.
rub!
The fire that you thought would go out will always turn over and ignite light and heat even more than before it was suppressed.
Should he admit it?
When she was rejected and pushed away by him time and time again, the embarrassment, helplessness, sadness and grief on her face made him almost want to tell her not to believe it, because in fact, these words were lies to her...
When she looked at him with such gratitude and admiration, how hard he tried to pretend nothing had happened and said, "To be honest, I don't want anything from you, because I would do the same no matter who it is."
But actually, there is only you.
Later... she hid her purpose deep in her heart, and only revealed her affection and love for him inadvertently, expressing it in a tactful way that would not make him "hate" her but could still express her emotions.
But it is this subtle gentleness that is the fatal blow. It is not obvious, but it exists.
Always existed.
One day, he suddenly found that he couldn't pretend anymore?
Every minute and every second he spent with her, this repeated suppression and rekindling of desire, was constantly challenging his willpower, putting him in a perilous situation like hanging by a thread. Just one step would lead him into the abyss, from which there would be no recovery.
Like running water corroding rocks, by the time he felt uncomfortable and could no longer pretend, it was already too late.
Once a small hole is torn, the flaws will be everywhere like thousands of rays of morning light breaking through the sky.
In the bathroom rest area, for the first time, he no longer restrained his desire for her, held her face with his fingers, and kissed her.
In the best way to express the desire that he had suppressed for too long, he sucked her tongue and swallowed her saliva.
So sweet.
Although after waking up, he wanted to kill the despicable self he had just been.
Filled with remorse, there were many ways he could make it up to her.
Be her follower, servant, slave, or even dog...it's all fine.
But she was so generous in forgiving herself, in order to offset her guilt,
She kissed him back.
Without permission.
That was the moment when her lips touched his lips again.
He was very sure that the string that had been held tightly in his heart had completely broken.
In an instant, he abandoned all morals and bottom lines, and was completely controlled by primitive physical desires. He became like a beast, acting recklessly and venting his feelings without regard for any consequences, making her belong to him completely.
Likewise, he belongs to her.
From the body to the heart, every inch of the soul is under her control.
In less than a week of knowing her, he was captured by her and became her trophy.
How long will it take to persist like this?
Perhaps, he was not a firm person from the beginning to the end, but he just thought he was very firm.
He never dared to recall the first night he saw her.
When she came out of the cabin and sat opposite him, the sound of her voice and the expression on her face when she spoke to him were so alluring.
Even though she came with a clear purpose, her lack of experience made this unnatural "seduction" even more unfamiliar.
And this is the real reason why he was able to get away with it at that time, right?
He had so much to confess.
He also needs to admit that no one can resist being seduced by someone he has a strong physical attraction to.
The same goes for him.
If, she put her arms around his neck, just like he carried her to the bed, and held tight.
Their heartbeats were so close that they could clearly hear each other's breathing.
So……
He would never know whether he would lose control of himself and push her down beside the campfire in the wilderness of the woods on the night they first met.
Under the starry sky and moonlight, like they did in the shower room of that supermarket bathroom,
crazy.
