Chapter 64 Rest
The thunder zombie succeeded in his first attack and raised his hand to launch a second attack.
But Chi Heng would never give it this chance again.
I saw a dazzling ball of light quickly gathering in his palm.
Before the thunder zombie launched its second attack, he threw it over casually.
The next moment, the holy white light became brighter.
The thunder zombies disappeared into thin air with painful roars.
As expected, light-based abilities are the most effective against zombies.
At the same time, the last earth wall behind the two men collapsed.
Before any of them had time to react.
The last bit of the aftermath of the explosion hit the two men hard, throwing them high into the air.
Chi Heng held Yu Yao tightly in his arms, releasing his wind ability to act as a buffer while turning his body to use himself as a cushion.
A few breaths later, there was a puff and the two of them fell heavily beside a flower bed in a small park.
And that sound was the sound of Chi Heng's body being pierced by the extremely sharp metal fence that was only ten centimeters away from the flower bed.
Following Chi Heng's low groan, Yu Yao felt her heart tremble.
He was busy resisting the overwhelming sleepiness, holding up his groggy head, and trying to help Chi Heng up.
It was very dark around, so dark that you couldn't see your hand in front of you.
Yu Yao passed her arms through Chi Heng's armpits, supported the wound on his back, and slowly helped him sit up in a half-hug.
Afterwards, Chi Heng gently raised his hand and snapped his fingers.
A ball of fire spontaneously ignited out of nothing under his control, and playfully flew around the two of them.
With the light, Yu Yao also saw Chi Heng's pale face.
Without any hesitation, she squeezed out her last bit of energy to heal him.
Chi Heng immediately spoke up to stop her: "I'm fine, don't waste your superpowers."
As he said this, he was about to take her hand away.
Yu Yao held down his hand that was about to stop him, and said weakly, "Don't be so self-indulgent. I have a purpose. In my current condition, I will definitely fall asleep. Only by curing you can I better protect me, right?"
Chi Heng pursed his lips, knowing that she said that on purpose.
The last time she went to lure the zombies, she also said unpleasant words to Dongfang Heping and Jing, trying to dispel their inner guilt.
They were so close, her body so warm.
Her heart must be very warm, but she just had to put up ice and pretend to be a cold person.
Following Yu Yao's movements, Chi Heng could clearly feel the tingling warmth in the wound, and even the area burned by the lightning net was slowly recovering.
Only when you feel it yourself can you realize what a magical power it is?
After a moment, all of Chi Heng's wounds miraculously recovered.
Yu Yao was also completely at the end of her strength.
She dropped her hands weakly, took out two "recovery pills" wrapped in paper, which were used to restore Qi and blood, and stuffed them into Chi Heng's hands. She only had time to say, "These are for restoring Qi and blood. Here you are..."
Before she finished speaking, she closed her eyes and fell straight into Chi Heng's arms.
Chi Heng's heartbeat was disordered, and he kept this posture silently for a whole minute.
A minute later, he lowered his eyes to look at the little head resting on his chest, sighed softly, and then threw two pills into his mouth.
He had obviously accepted the magical feeling of the lost energy and blood being quickly replenished.
His brain now is too busy to think about those things.
After a few breaths, he slowly reached out and held Yu Yao horizontally in his arms, stood up steadily, turned around and walked towards a small Chinese-style attic on the rockery not far away.
The flame also followed obediently beside him, illuminating the surroundings clearly and brightly for him.
......
Before the end of the world, this should have been a small tourist attraction.
There are some antique furniture on the first floor and a heavily carved step-out bed on the second floor.
As soon as Chi Heng put Yu Yao on the bed, Mo Yu jumped out of the pet space, meowing.
Yu Yao doted on her, so she gave her the right to enter and exit the pet space freely.
Chi Heng looked at Mo Yu and said softly, "You're here?"
"Meow~"
"You are also a space type, so do you also have space?"
"Meow~"
The cat nodded.
"Are there towels and water in the space?"
Mo Yu nodded again.
The next moment, there appeared an uncovered bucket of mineral water, a clean small basin and a brand new towel beside it.
Chi Heng was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that he could actually take it out just by asking it out of luck.
This is all thanks to Luo Mei. Before going to bed at night, Luo Mei got a lot of delicious food and toys for Mo Yu from Yu Yao.
Some of them have no lids and drinking water can be drawn directly from buckets.
There are clean soft towels for wiping the mouth and paws, and a small bowl for eating.
Chi Heng looked at those things for a long time before he laughed and praised softly: "You...are awesome."
Mo Yu meowed, signaling him to stop being so nervous and wipe it for her master quickly!
Because she was blown away by the aftermath of the explosion, Yu Yao's face was inevitably covered with some dust.
In addition, she fell into a coma due to excessive use of energy, so she could not sleep well. She kept frowning and sweating.
This caused her face, which had always been clean and fair, as if it had been beautified with a soft focus filter, to look somewhat dishevelled.
That beautiful cinnabar mole between the eyebrows was like a pearl covered with dust, losing its luster.
Chi Heng seemed to understand Mo Yu's meaning. He raised his eyebrows slightly and obediently wet the towel with mineral water.
He first helped Yu Yao straighten the messy hair on her face with a slightly stiff attitude.
Then he slowly cleaned the sweat and dirt off her face.
His movements were extremely light and gentle, with a barely perceptible tremor, as if he was afraid of scratching the girl's delicate skin.
It took him several minutes just to wipe his face.
Mo Yu was so anxious that he wished he could grow a pair of hands so he could take his place.
......
After wiping her face clean, Chi Heng also carefully wiped Yu Yao's neck and hands.
I took off her shoes again so that she could sleep more comfortably.
After finishing everything, Chi Heng washed the towel and small basin.
He ignored the fact that he was sweating all over his forehead and instead breathed a sigh of relief. He casually bent one leg and sat on the step of the stretch mat, trying to contact other teammates through the mind group chat.
"Ah Xian, Ping Jing, are you there?"
Luo Mei: "Boss? How are you guys? Are you all right?"
Chi Heng: "We are safe, but Xiao Qi fell asleep due to exhaustion."
Jiang Yi: "Why are you exhausted again? Is it serious?"
Chi Heng: "There is no big problem for now. Mo Yu and I are staying by her side. What about you? How is Dongfang?"
Qi Xian: "My second brother hasn't woken up yet, he's still running a fever."
Luo Mei: "Boss, where are you? We'll go find you!"
Chi Heng: "First, find a safe place to rest and guard the east. We can deal with the rest after dawn."
Luo Mei: "I'm worried about A-Yao!"
Chi Heng: "I... and Mo Yu are here."
Luo Mei: "......"
I feel uneasy because of you.
It’s not that I don’t trust Chi Heng, it’s just that Chi Heng has never taken care of a girl since he was a child, he is a straight man.
It's really hard for people to entrust Yu Yao to him with confidence.
However, I don’t know if it was Qi Xian and the others who persuaded Luo Mei to stop.
Luo Mei didn't say anything else after that.
Qi Xian and Jiang Yi each reminded him to be careful and take good care of Xiao Qi, and then stopped talking.
......
Sensing their obvious distrust, Chi Heng pinched his brows, tilted his head, and looked at Yu Yao's little face that was still glowing in the dim firelight.
I couldn't help but feel moved.
She was undoubtedly very beautiful.
Chi Heng considers himself to be knowledgeable and has met and seen quite a few beauties.
But I have never seen a beauty more stunning and more spiritual than Yu Yao.
When I first saw her, she was holding two swords in her hands, moving among the zombies like a dancing butterfly, beautiful and dangerous.
He couldn't help but look at her twice more, and even took the initiative to reveal his flaws, asking Yu Yao to help him.
Later, Luo Mei suggested that she join the team, and Chi Heng naturally agreed.
And subconsciously he felt that he must catch her with all his strength!
He will never regret it.
Sure enough, in just a few days, from some point on, she became the indispensable Xiaoqi in the team.
Was it when she deliberately threatened Dongfang Heping and Jing not to stop her from getting rich, while at the same time disregarding the danger to lure away half of the zombies in the city?
Or when she exhausted all her supernatural powers to save Ah Xian, but pretended to be relaxed?
Or was it the day of the vigil, when she carefully told her secret and showed such a pure smile?
Chi Heng didn’t know.
But this did not prevent him from thanking God and fate for letting them meet such a good teammate and such a good Xiaoqi.
"Meow~"
Mo Yu's cute voice suddenly sounded, waking up Chi Heng who was distracted.
I saw it squatting on the edge of the bed with its head tilted, and its lively cat eyes seemed to say: Go and have a rest if you are tired, I am here.
Chi Heng was surprised that he could actually understand Mo Yu's subtext, but he still shook his head lightly and said, "I'm not tired, you go and rest."
"Meow?" Mo Yu's little head tilted even more, as if she didn't expect that he would reject her.
However, she did not insist. Instead, she took out two unopened lollipops from the space and threw them at her feet.
Then it meowed twice, turned back to Yu Yao's face, curled up into a small ball and fell asleep.
Chi Heng looked at the lollipop on the bed and recognized that it was a kind of candy that Yu Yao and Luo Mei often ate.
It must be a magical object.
Chi Heng was bored anyway, so he picked up a cigarette, opened it and put it in his mouth.
After a moment, he fell silent again.
"...Sure enough, magical~" Chi Heng murmured.
The warm orange flame jumped mischievously and then suddenly went out.
The world returned to darkness once again.
And in the darkness, there were only three shallow breaths...
Well... there was also a small purr.
......
