Chapter 44: The scene of quitting being a fan
"Who are you?" Lin Yimu grabbed Dean's neck, pointed a gun at him and asked, "Where is Lu Weiyi?"
Dean didn't understand the previous sentence, but he understood Lu Weiyi's name. He stared at him with kitten-like eyes and pointed here and said, "Lu, Weiyi...home."
The strange tone was understandable, and Lin Yimu also roughly understood that this person seemed to not know Chinese. Lin Yimu confiscated the pistol and let the man go. After talking and gesturing, Lin Yimu figured out that Lu Weiyi had gone out to look for food. As for the rest, he didn't understand a word, and the three of them could only sit there staring at each other.
So, when Antonio came back from searching for supplies, he entered the building and saw the door wide open. His boyfriend, who was supposed to be sleeping, was sitting pitifully opposite two men, and he shouted "David" with a sound of grievance.
"Who are you?" Antonio threw down the box in his hand, pulled Dean behind him, and looked at the people sitting on the side.
"Brother Li," the green-haired boy greeted Li Zhuang with a smile when he saw him coming in next, and took the initiative to entertain him, "He said he was here to look for Brother Lu, and the name and room number he gave were correct, and he had the key, so I brought him up."
Li Zhuang nodded and threw two packets of instant noodles to Little Green Hair. Little Green Hair thanked him repeatedly and ran away. He looked Lin Yimu up and down and asked casually, "Are you the one who came to pick him up?"
Pick him up?
Zhuang Mingxu's words seemed to be to protect him, but it didn't seem to make any difference. They were definitely going back to Qingyuan. Lin Yimu nodded, "Where are they?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Qingyue's voice came from outside the door, "Food is the most important thing now. Gold, silver, jade and other stones are worthless. That person is obviously trying to cheat you. If you want to buy jade or other stones in the future, don't just give them as much as they ask for."
"Got it." Lu Weiyi replied halfheartedly, touching the several jade ornaments with excellent water content in his hand.
They came back with the supplies, and as soon as they entered the community gate, Lu Weiyi saw someone selling jade ornaments at a stall. They were all of excellent water quality. The first thing he thought of was his space that was still cracked. The man insisted on having a box of instant noodles. Lu Weiyi didn't want to argue with him, so he agreed. However, when he was taking the man to get the things, he was stopped by Gu Qingyue, who directly cut the price in half. He was treated as a naive person and was lectured for a long time.
"Gu Qingji? You are Gu Qingji! Right?"
Lin Yimu had just heard the voice of his young master, but before he saw him, the blond child next to him started shouting excitedly.
When Antonio saw Dean's expression, he covered his face and immediately turned unhappy towards Gu Qingji who came in.
"Do you know me?" Gu Qingji was very familiar with this kind of scream every time he traveled or attended a concert.
"I, I..." Dean pointed at himself, too anxious to speak, and just uttered in English, "I'm your fan, I came here specially to see your concert." No wonder Antonio recognized Gu Qingji when he saw him.
Dean said, waving one hand and singing to himself as an accompaniment, "You suck, wake up, and make a sound, and then I will eat it, and it will be so delicious..."
I am most afraid of the air suddenly becoming quiet.
"No wonder I have never heard your song." Li Zhuang looked at Gu Qingji with an indescribable look.
"It's not, I didn't..." Gu Qingji didn't know what to say for a moment. If this happened the day before the end of the world, I would definitely personally expel all fans of this thing.
Only Antonio clapped his hands and praised sincerely, "Dean, it's very beautiful. I think I can hold a concert by myself and don't need to listen to others."
Li Zhuang gained a new understanding of Antonio's lies.
It was not until they became familiar with each other and talked about it again that everyone finally knew the original lyrics that Dean had pieced together: You are my daydream that I am always thinking about, and even so I still don't want to wake up.
The group was silent, not knowing what to say, until Lin Yimu broke the awkward silence with a word "Young Master".
Lu Weiyi's gaze suddenly turned away from the excitement, and the moment he saw Lin Yimu, his cold eyes brightened, "Brother Damu, where is Zhuang Mingxu?" He looked around and didn't see anyone, so he looked at Lin Yimu again.
"Mingxu? Isn't he in Kyoto?" Lin Yimu's information still remained at the level before the earthquake.
"He went back to Qingyuan and said he would pick me up right away. Aren't you with him?"
Lin Yimu shook his head, "Before the earthquake, he called me and asked me to come over overnight." Lin Yimu roughly described what happened on the way and said, "He may have taken the wrong road. The earthquake changed a lot of places, especially the direction of Yilin County that we usually took, which was turned into a steep wall by the earthquake. If we keep going, it will become a dead end. I also took the wrong road and turned back to change to the direction of Akita County. This trip and return took me several days."
Although Lin Yimu tried to comfort him verbally, with the earthquake and zombies, he actually had some doubts in his heart as to whether Zhuang Mingxu had gotten into trouble.
"Well, something must have delayed him." Even though Lu Weiyi said this, he still looked a little disappointed.
His crow-feather-like eyelashes cast a small shadow as he lowered his head, and his delicate eyebrows drooped, making him look like an abandoned little prince, yet he was holding on to a last bit of stubbornness, which made him even more pitiful.
"Mingxu will definitely come to pick you up," Lin Yimu added in his heart if he is okay.
"Well," Lu Weiyi took a deep breath and returned to his usual calm self, "Let's move things first."
At the same time, thousands of miles away in Qingyuan City, Zhuang Mingxu asked the child on the sofa in the living room of his home for the last time, "Aiyi, I'm asking you one last time, are you sure you want to follow me to find your little daddy? There will be many monsters along the way. It's very dangerous. You may die at any time."
"Aunt Muzi said that I'm only safe with Big Daddy, and asked me to follow Big Daddy all the time," Zhuang Aiyi said in a low voice, her little hands tightly grasping the corner of Zhuang Mingxu's clothes. The beautiful eyes that looked exactly like Lu Weiyi's looked at Zhuang Mingxu with tears in her eyes, "Big Daddy, don't leave me, I will be good."
When Zhuang Mingxu got off the plane that day, he felt the airport was too noisy and did not call Lu Weiyi directly. While getting ready to get in the car, he saw the text message sent by Lu Weiyi. Feeling uneasy, he called Lu Weiyi and just in time heard him shout, "Go to an open and less crowded place."
Zhuang Mingxu didn't think about anything. He called the driver Zheng Xin who came to pick him up to follow him and ran quickly out of the terminal.
Almost as soon as he ran out, he felt a vibration under his feet. Zhuang Mingxu staggered from side to side, but still ran a distance to avoid the panicked crowd.
After the vibration completely disappeared, Lu Weiyi's phone could no longer be reached, and what appeared before his eyes was a purgatory on earth.
The earthquake caused a crack in the terminal building, and countless people were crushed to death underneath. Vehicles in the parking lot were squeezed and collided, and there were limbs and blood everywhere. As the crowd poured out, there was a large-scale stampede. Crying and screaming filled the ears, and it was a scene of hell on earth.
Zhuang Mingxu and Zheng Xin were both injured, but compared to the others who were missing limbs, the amount of blood they shed could be ignored.
The roads around the airport were completely destroyed, and the damaged electrical circuits made the surroundings pitch black. The two could only wait until dawn and then walk back.
If they wanted to go to Wutong City, they had to pass through Qingyuan. The two walked two or three kilometers early in the morning before they saw a van parked on the side of the road. They knocked on the window, and Zhuang Mingxu showed off the keyless ignition, and then the two of them set off on a bumpy road.
I originally wanted to go straight back to my residence and drive an off-road vehicle to Qingyuan, but I didn't go far before I ran into an acquaintance who was blocking the road on the side of the road - Li Muzi. The white coat she was wearing was covered in blood, and she was holding a child in her arms. Zhuang Mingxu stopped the car and took a closer look before recognizing that it seemed to be his son, Zhuang Aiyi.
Li Muzi is a professor at a genetic engineering research institute, specializing in double sperm cultivation. Zhuang Mingxu sponsored this project in his early years in order to cut off Lu Weiyi's retreat. He used the sperm of both of them to cultivate a child, who is now over two years old.
The child bred from the two sperms survived but his health was not very good. He spent most of his time living in the institute and was cared for and studied by special people, so naturally the relationship between them was not very close.
But after all, this was the blood of himself and Lu Weiyi, so Zhuang Mingxu was still very concerned about this child. When he heard Li Muzi say that the child was trapped in the collapsed house and was dug out, he felt scared. But when he saw his son weakly open his eyes and shouted "Big Daddy" with tears in his eyes, it is undeniable that Zhuang Mingxu's heart softened instantly.
The car that was heading straight home turned a corner and went to the hospital first.
The examination and treatment was delayed for several days, and by the time I was discharged from the hospital and before I had time to leave, zombies appeared.
As soon as Zhuang Mingxu heard the news, he sensitively perceived the future situation. He gathered together the brothers who had retired with him and the company's senior executives, used his suburban villa as a temporary gathering place, and organized a few people to quickly empty out several large supermarkets.
There are troops stationed a hundred kilometers away from Qingyuan City. This kind of large-scale geological disaster will definitely alert the army for rescue. Zhuang Mingxu took advantage of the time difference. When the army arrived and began to control the food in large supermarkets, he was already discussing with his subordinates about getting a batch of arms. Although they could not deal with zombies, humans might be more terrifying than zombies in the end times.
After finally coming up with a rough outline for his subordinates, Zhuang Aiyi fell ill again. The attack came on in the middle of the night and it was once judged that he would not survive. Naturally, Zhuang Mingxu could not leave at this time. Now that he has finally recovered, he insists on going with us.
Although he knew that the road ahead would be full of dangers with the child, he was indeed right. In today's world, children would definitely not be safer with anyone else than with their parents. But if he didn't go to find Lu Weiyi because of the child, that was impossible.
Between taking the child into danger and giving up Lu Weiyi, Zhuang Mingxu chose the first without hesitation.
He sat on the sofa in silence for a while, then said to Zheng Xin beside him, "Pack up and leave for Wutong City tomorrow morning."
**
After moving the things, it was already dark, so they just had dinner together.
They took out a few self-heating hot pots, mixed the seasonings together, added a lot of ham and braised eggs, turned on the gas and cooked two packs of noodles.
Brothers Gu Qingyue were in charge of cooking, and Dean came over to help. Lu Weiyi sat at the window, stroking the jade Buddha he had just exchanged for, and looked out silently. Li Zhuang and Antonio smoked cigarettes and studied the map to decide where to go tomorrow, and occasionally looked up in the direction of Lu Weiyi.
The solar light bulbs illuminate the room brightly, making it seem like a happy place before the end of the world.
Lin Yimu washed himself, changed his clothes, and came out, then walked over to sit next to Lu Weiyi. "Master, what are your plans?"
Lu Weiyi shook his head, his expression reflected in the window looked a little helpless.
"Should we...keep waiting?"
Do I have to wait forever?
In his previous life, it took Zhuang Mingxu seven days to travel from Qingyuan to Wutong City. Now, even if it takes another ten days, he should be there. Although Lu Weiyi has been saying that Zhuang Mingxu is fine and he will come, who can be sure that his rebirth will not change anything? Didn’t Dean, who was rescued by him in time, not have to face the things in his past life? And didn’t Lin Yimu, who was supposed to appear with Zhuang Mingxu, appear here alone?
Who can guarantee that Zhuang Mingxu will be okay?
Lu Weiyi was silent for a while. When Gu Qingyue called him cheerfully for dinner, he put a few jade ornaments into the space. Feeling the pain in his belly button, he made a decision, "If he still hasn't come in five days, we will go back to Qingyuan."
