Chapter 97 Chapter 97 Old Friend
"parking."
The car stopped immediately and the driver obeyed.
Han Xu looked towards the back seat and found that the masked man had already picked up Jiang Xi.
In the darkness of night, they walked into a shop along the street.
The masked man had already noticed that something was wrong with her condition, so he asked Han Xu to change her route and find a place to rest nearby.
Therefore, this desolate town on the highway became their first choice.
Jiang Xi was in a very bad condition. Her forehead was sweating, her consciousness was blurred, her eyelids felt like they weighed a thousand pounds, and she kept mumbling incomprehensible nonsense.
Oh, and he also likes to catch people, and it hurts a lot when he does.
The masked man carried her into the store, put her down on the sofa next to the pool table, and then rolled up her trouser legs. The gauze wrapped around her legs above the knees was already stained scarlet.
Her wounds never healed.
Not only that, more dense blood vessel patterns overflowed from the edge of the gauze wrapping and spread in all directions.
Han Xu: “!”
The masked man didn't ask him to avoid it, and he certainly didn't have the awareness to do so.
Therefore, he discovered the abnormality of Jiang Xi's body openly.
This situation is extremely bad.
The result of being scratched by the zombies' claws was not as lucky as he had imagined. Judging from the current situation, this woman was 100% infected, and it was only a matter of time before she completely turned into a zombie.
But, look at the masked man's reaction again. He was untying the gauze wrapped around the woman's thigh, which was soaked in black blood.
What? Do you need to re-bandage it?
"Hot water, scissors..."
That’s right.
The masked man spoke concisely and told me exactly what he needed right now.
Han Xu: “- -||” Oh.
A caring servant, always at your service.
Anyway, let's see how the situation goes.
Han Xu went out to prepare what the masked man wanted.
One of her legs was lifted up, her ankle was held in the man's hand, and Jiang Qian was leaning on the sofa, mumbling vague words.
When the masked man used his hand to test the temperature of her forehead, she grabbed his hand and opened her mouth to bite it.
But he didn't take his hand back, letting her hold it, and maybe even letting her bite it again later.
The heart is really big.
But what was strange was that after Jiang Ying grabbed the hand, she did not rush to bite it. Instead, she sniffed it and tried to lick it with her tongue.
Finally, the masked man heard clearly what she was muttering for the first time...
"Uncooked... raw..."
At that time, his cerebellum shrank a little.
It turned out that she was hungry.
Han Xu had not returned yet, so he had to go get her food himself.
But this would mean leaving her temporarily, and he fell into a rare state of hesitation.
“Ahh—Ahh—”
It seemed as if Jiang Xi's eyes could not be opened, they were only squinted a little, and she could not see anything. She frowned and groped around with her hands, eating the air.
Then he touched the medicine box.
Before she could take out the ointment from the medicine box and take a bite, the masked man closed the lid.
"Wait until I come back."
I don’t know how much effect this will have on a “patient” who is in a state of confusion.
But he went anyway.
The dilapidated billiard hall had its doors and windows tightly closed, leaving only a tiny gap for ventilation.
Outside the window, the moon hung high in the sky, obscured by the gathering night clouds.
The shadow cast on the ground was like a ghost.
Jiang Qian looked in that direction with her empty eyes, curled up her feet on the sofa in fear, and hugged herself.
According to the rules of the underworld, as long as you don’t step into the dark, you can’t touch ghosts.

"Hot water is coming!"
Han Xu pushed the door open and walked in.
The sofa was empty.
He was stunned and looked around.
Where are the people?
The person is behind him.
The masked man appeared like a ghost.
Han Xu carried the kettle confidently.
"Where's the zombie sister?"
Masked man: “…”
The bag of snacks in his hand fell to the ground.
Jiang Xi is missing.
-
-An abandoned house in the town-
Having been uninhabited for a long time, the place was filled with a musty smell of rotting wood, and the carpet was covered with large patches of unknown stains, which was quite disgusting.
At this time, a woman wearing a sweatshirt and sweatpants with disheveled hair was sitting on it.
Her arms were hung high at both sides, and the other end of the cloth strips on her slender wrists were fixed to the heavy furniture. She struggled hard but could not escape from the confinement. She hated the feeling of having her wrists bound and twisted her body frantically.
At this moment, a bright and scorching light appeared in front of her, and she instinctively stepped back.
It was a brazier, and the shredded paper and wood chips inside the brazier rolled and collapsed under the burning flames, turning into ashes.
The town had long been without electricity and water, which was the primitive way for humans to obtain light and heat in the dark nights of winter.
Right next to the brazier, a figure could be vaguely seen.
After the man lit the fire in the brazier, he walked towards her.
He squatted down so his eyes were level with hers.
“Hiss, hiss, hiss—”
Jiang Xi bared her teeth and used them to threaten the other person, "Don't come near!"
Because now she can no longer use her claws as a weapon.
Her head was in a daze, as if it was filled with a mass of paste, and she was completely unable to calm down or think.
But she can tell who is good to her and who is malicious towards her.
For example, the person who took her away from her original place, brought her to this dark and smelly place, and tied her hands was definitely not a good person.
Seeing Jiang Xi like this, the man couldn't help but feel excited.
"Yo yo yo, are you angry?"
With the help of the firelight, he could finally see the woman's face clearly, which he had not seen clearly before.
Even in such dim light, and with the characteristic dark blue spiderweb veins that had crept up her neck and into the corners of her eyes, he could still tell that this woman was quite good-looking...
I guess she must have looked even more beautiful before she turned into a half-human, half-zombie state.
This is not surprising, but what is surprising is that the person who gave her favor and patience was actually that guy?
That's why he brought her here.
He is really curious.
I heard that zombie hunters have started raising zombies?
What a niche track this is, quite avant-garde.
But now it seems that this "zombie" has not completely lost its mind and is in the process of alienation.
Maybe we can communicate.
The man pinched her cheeks to stop her from ranting.
"What is your relationship with Xiao Liang?"
He speaks his mind.
As soon as the two words "Xiao Liang" came out.
The effect is immediate.
All the woman's struggles and resistance disappeared in an instant. It was as if the pause button was pressed on her whole body. She sat there quietly, motionless.
Is there really a connection? The man smelled a strong scent of gossip and prepared to continue his efforts.
"Boyfriend?" He tentatively threw out a relationship term.
But before he could get more useful information.
"grass!!"
After his body rolled quickly for a distance on the carpet, he uttered a clear and melodious curse in Chinese.
"***!" Still in shock.
How to say it, if he had dodged a little slower just now, his head and neck would have been separated.
There were now two tall figures in the house.
The man holding the ancient black gold sword managed to chop the sword, which was less than two meters long, to make it look like it was 40 meters long, and he was the one being chopped.
The man who was chopped in the corner was supporting the floor with one hand, gasping for breath, and the saliva he swallowed was full of the strong smell of blood.
“Ahhh—”
I thought I had escaped death, but there was a series of blood drops dripping on the floor.
The lung was pierced! ?
He covered his chest and stood up with difficulty. Dangerous black energy was emanating from his body and he was obviously enraged.
"You bastard, are you really that serious?!"
"You," just want to watch the fun and not mind getting involved.
Han Xu unceremoniously poked the man who was clutching his chest not far away, and added insult to injury, "Damn it!"
Without even considering the time, place, and people involved, you dare to kidnap someone. This is nothing but courting death.
"You're still speaking for him?!"
The man who was bleeding profusely was so angry that he was about to faint, but if he really had to fight two people alone, he didn't have the ability to do so.
He couldn't even beat Xiao Liang alone... let alone Han Xu.
So unlucky!
"Come on, let me help you bandage it."
First a slap in the face and then a sweet treat, Han Xu rushed over, put his arm around his shoulders, and pulled him out, "Don't take it personally, we're all brothers..."
brother?
Fuck brother!
"I think he wants to kill me!!" The man coughed and spit out blood. When he got excited, he spit out more blood and felt dizzy.
"Yes, yes," Han Xu nodded repeatedly in agreement, "He wants to kill you."
Isn't it normal to take your brother's life for a woman?
Let me put it this way, if he wasn't still of some use, like being able to run errands or something, the same thing would have happened a few days ago.
"I'm telling you..." When the two of them reached the door, Han Xu lowered his voice and whispered in the ear of a zombie hunter who had received a private message from an anonymous group about gossip and came to investigate, only to be nearly killed by a 40-meter machete.
"That's the zombie on the tip of his precious heart!"
? ? : "#%￥#&%&!!" (bird language, the translator is dead)
After they left, there were only two people left in the room.
The masked man came up to Jiang Xi, stretched out his hand, and helped her untie the tight cloth strips around her wrists.
Untie one hand first, then go to the other.
Then, just as he was helping her untie her other hand.
In the fight against the virus, Jiang Qian regained consciousness for a brief moment, and her hand, which was now able to move, reached out to the man's face again.
The second time.
The man paused, but didn't dodge.
The mask was taken off, and this was his last mask.
Without any cover, his face was finally exposed to her.
On a quiet night, in the burning firelight, the flames and the darkness of the background are intertwined, and light and shadow overlap.
Looking at the man's eyes, Jiang Xi's vision blurred.
haven't seen you for a long time.
