Chapter 95 Chapter 95 Picking Flowers
The body is falling rapidly.
He was pushed down from the entrance of the corpse cave and fell to the bottom.
But strangely, Jiang Qian didn't feel any fear in her heart. Instead, she felt it was a relief.
Ever since she traveled through time and space to this chaotic zombie apocalypse, the only thing on her mind has been to try her best to survive, no matter the cost.
Because at that time, she also had a kitten and she had to protect her cat.
Later, the cat was gone, and her heart was empty, with no connection.
Until Jingcheng broke into her life and became the light that saved her.
However, fate played a trick on him and Jingcheng died.
Then... Lu Suye also died.
She really could no longer find the meaning of living, and she was so heartbroken that she could hardly breathe.
From the road leading out of the Paradise Guild to the entrance of the Corpse Cave, she heard the conversation between these people.
She found out that they were originally Jingcheng's subordinates.
As for her, the culprit who killed Jingcheng, they wished to grind her into ashes.
Yes, it was she who killed Jingcheng.
If she had not made that deal with Jingcheng, Jingcheng would not have left the Paradise Guild.
If she hadn't chased after him on her own will that morning when Jingcheng was about to leave alone, and forced him to stay by her side...
They will not be found by Lu Suye, and Jingcheng will not die.
If Jingcheng hadn't died, she wouldn't have lost control and killed Lu Suye in a state of emotional breakdown.
They were right, she was a complete nuisance.
She shouldn't be living in this world.
So, on the way they brought her here, when they pushed her down from the cave, she did not resist, but faced it calmly.
Let her world end here.
Like a falling bird, she plummeted.
It only takes a few seconds to free fall from the top of the cave to the bottom, which is very fast.
The closer she got to the bottom of the cave, the clearer she could see.
The flesh-colored monsters scattered around the cave, wriggling their limbs and running towards her, were ready to devour her to pieces.
The pain she was about to experience was only one ten-thousandth of what Jingcheng had experienced at that time. If she also died here, wouldn't it be considered a kind of eternity?
In a similar place in different time and space, she and he were together forever.
Jiang Xi closed her eyes and waited for death to come.
Death was a whistling, foul-smelling wind. She heard the screams and crawling sounds of the zombies in the cave, which was creepy.
She could feel something biting at her hair and clothes, pulling her back and forth.
However, the pain from the impact of the body and the ground never appeared.
Suddenly, the feeling of weightlessness disappeared, and someone hugged her waist from behind and pulled her up.
Then, she turned from her face-down position to a standing position, or rather...
She was held and suspended in mid-air.
Gravity no longer exists?
How can a person float in mid-air?
It was the person holding her waist, hanging in the air.
Several steel cables were inserted into the inner wall of the corpse cave, and they were rotating and rising in the cave like hanging wires.
The moment the man picked her up, countless blue-white arms frantically tried to grab them and drag them down.
Many zombies had already crawled to their position, transformed into corpse-shaped cannonballs, and pounced towards them. In an instant, the air was filled with jumping zombies.
"Hold me." the man said to her.
However, Jiang Xi looked as if she didn't want to live anymore.
She neither opened her eyes nor hugged the man who fell from the sky and pulled her out of the pile of zombies, so it was even less likely that she would listen to him and clamp her legs around him to stabilize herself.
The only reason she didn't fall was because of the man's arm that held her.
“…” was ignored.
The man couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Forget it, if the money was really that easy to make, it wouldn’t be called a corpse cave.
Holding her with one hand was neither stable nor fast, so he got angry and simply carried Jiang Qian on his shoulders like a sack.
This way, I can finally free up one hand.
The steel cable contracted, and he became extremely agile. With an acceleration, he rushed out of the corpse cave directly.
-
See the light of day again.
Being carried on the man's shoulders, Jiang Xi's head and hands hung limply, and the woods all around her made her dream back to the night when she was still in the Qingyuan Guild.
It was as cold then as it is now.
The difference wasn't just that the sky was now filled with the constant roar of thunder and lightning, making people tremble with fear...
Also, she knew that the person who carried her at that time was Lu Suye, but she had no idea who it was now.
Why did this person save her?
What kind of fate awaits her?
Jiang Xi's eyes were empty and unfocused. Her heart had long been dead, and she had no extra energy to react to the sudden situation.
She doesn't want to either.
The surrounding scene changed rapidly.
Soon, the thunder disappeared and turned into golden and purple flashes on the horizon.
They walked a long way.
Finally, just when Jiang Xi was about to have a brain congestion, the man carrying her stopped.
He placed her on a large round stump.
There are many round tree stumps like this nearby.
A long time ago, this was a fast-growing logging forest, but there has been no sign of human activity for many years, and it is overgrown with weeds and barren.
Jiang Xi sat on the tree stump, holding the moist round edge of the stump with both hands, her body trembling slightly.
Looking straight ahead, she finally saw the man who saved her.
Wow, you're willing to open your eyes?
The man felt it was a little strange, so he leaned over and looked her in the eye.
He saw his own reflection in her eyes.
What beautiful eyes they are, just like they contain a bag of water.
And the delicate nose and mouth...
Unable to help himself, he reached out and pinched her chin.
But he quickly realized the inappropriateness of his behavior and immediately withdrew his hand.
What the hell!
He seemed to be bewitched and lost his mind just now.
"Who are you?" Jiang Xi finally couldn't help it.
How could someone come to save her? Was this man someone she knew? But she had no impression of his face at all.
What she had just experienced was like a dream. The shadow of death had clearly fallen on her head, yet she unexpectedly escaped death.
"I?"
The man grinned, with the corners of his narrow eyes raised. He exuded an evil charm from the inside out, and the words he spoke were even more dissolute.
"I am the flower thief."
Hearing these four words -
Jiang Xi: “…”
After saying this, the man stood up and left.
Gone…?
Jiang Qian looked at the man's back, her eyes full of confusion.
Her body was shaking with chills and her head was splitting, so she hugged her arms.
She couldn't confirm whether she was still in the corpse cave, and whether what was happening now was just a dream before her death.
Dreaming that someone would come and save her.
-
The man left, but not far.
He went to see another man.
His "accomplices".
The man was dressed in black and had his back to him.
"Hey," Han Xu shouted, "The person has been rescued."
The man with his back to him turned around.
As soon as I saw his face.
"Damn it!" Han Xu's mouth twitched twice, "Do you think you are Yang Guo!?"
There is some truth to this.
Because the man had a new mask on his face.
Han Xu: “…” What the hell.
A small bag was thrown in the air. Han Xu caught it and opened it, his eyes full of smiles.
The pay was good, but it wasn't enough.
"I rescued her from the corpse cave," Han Xu began to raise the price. "Is this all?"
He shook the black cloth bag.
"Corpse cave?" The masked man's voice was muffled through the mask, and his original tone could not be heard, but from his tone, it could be judged that he was a little shocked.
"Of course," Han Xu frowned, "it was too late when you provided the information."
No way.
He lied with his eyes open, "When I arrived, she had already been thrown in."
In fact, he followed him all the way.
As for why he waited until Jiang Qian was thrown in before taking action?
Because you have to pay extra money to save people from the corpse cave!
Masked man: “…” It’s hard not to call him a piece of shit.
He ignored Han Xu and walked towards Jiang Xi in two steps.
Looks very anxious.
Han Xu naturally wouldn't leave until he received the extra reward, so he followed again.
So, when Jiang Qian saw two men walking towards her from the distant forest, one in front and one behind, her nerves were all tense.
There's another flower thief!!
Jiang Xi's face turned pale as she watched the masked thief who arrived later squatting in front of her.
She wanted to run, but her body seemed to be frozen, numb all over, and she couldn't move at all.
She could only let the masked man grab her arm and lift up the sleeve of her coat.
“Tsk…”
Han Xu knew what he was doing at a glance. Was he questioning his buddy's professional skills?
"rest assured,"
Because the extra compensation hadn't arrived yet, he could only patiently explain, "I can't bite off a bit."
But how could the masked man believe his one-sided words? He would not take her life lightly.
After checking both of the woman's arms, he found no wounds. As for other parts of her body, he didn't know.
Suddenly, the masked man turned around and gave an order to Han Xu, who was standing behind them with his eyes fixed on him.
"Turn around."
Han Xu: “…………”
Speechless!!
However, he still did as he was told, all for the sake of money.
Immediately afterwards, the masked man's hand appeared at the collar of Jiang Xi's coat.
It's obvious what he wants to do.
Jiang Qian raised her hands with all her strength and grabbed his wrists.
She stopped the man from unbuttoning her coat.
He wants to... pick flowers?
Jiang Xi was extremely frightened, her eyes full of resistance.
"don't want……"
She grasped the hand hard, trying to remove it from her collar.
But she couldn't muster any strength at all now. Just raising her hand made her feel exhausted...
What's wrong with her?
Hot tears fell from her eyes and hit the man's hand.
She could do nothing but stare at the man's hand, hoping that he would have a change of heart and let her go.
But soon... she was stunned.
This hand——
Jiang Xi's breathing seemed to have stopped.
The shackles on the wrist of this hand were removed.
So the man unbuttoned the top button of her coat.
But at the same time, her hand reached out to the man's ear.
She took off his mask.
