Upon reaching the bird's back, Mi Qingying couldn't resist reaching out and gently touching its feathers.
Smooth, soft, yet it feels extremely tough.
The bird's warmth seeped through her fingertips, and Mi Qingying felt an unprecedented sense of peace.
Mi Qingying subconsciously raised her head and looked at Jiang Wu in front of her, only to find that his back was so tall and imposing.
Zhu Lin then came to his senses, his eyes filled with excitement.
He knew perfectly well how awesome it was to possess such a huge golden bird in this apocalyptic world!
What this man in front of me is probably true!
Moreover, even if the man is bragging, as long as you build a good relationship with him, even if he rides a giant bird to send dozens of people out at once, you can still ensure the safe departure of everyone in Copper City!
The next second, Zhu Lin's burly face broke into a beaming smile as he fawned, "Brother Jiang, Chief Jiang, is there anything else you need? I'll do whatever I can for you."
Jiang Wu looked at Zhu Lin and said calmly, "Contact the other survivors in the city as soon as possible and tell them to wait patiently for the next few days and try to stay underground, because we will be using artillery shells, and they should avoid being accidentally injured by them."
Zhu Lin nodded quickly and said with a smile, "Okay, okay, Chief Jiang, I'll go and make the contact right away! You can trust me with my work; I guarantee it will be done perfectly!"
Jiang Wu nodded, then turned to Mi Qingying and asked, "Where is that mine you mentioned?"
Mi Qingying pointed in a direction.
Soon, the enormous golden bird took flight.
Zhu Lin and the others watched the giant bird gradually disappear into the distance, their hearts filled with awe and envy.
They never imagined that in this post-apocalyptic world shrouded in the shadow of zombies, someone could possess such magical power and control such wondrous creatures.
A man muttered to himself, "Brother, you're amazing. What kind of strength does it take to subdue such a giant beast, and a giant bird at that?"
Another man remarked, "There's probably nowhere in this world that can stop this guy. I wonder what the outside world is like."
Zhu Lin was also filled with envy. He thought for a moment and said, "Third brother, go and contact No. 1 Middle School and tell them what happened here. Fourth brother, you go..."
On the bird's back, as the golden giant bird continued to climb, the wind whistled in our ears.
Mi Qingying gripped the bird feather tightly, her body trembling slightly.
Even though she had long since disregarded life and death, her fear of heights still made her extremely nervous at this moment.
She also realized that she would not become fearless just because her heart had hardened.
She unconsciously moved a little closer to Jiang Wu.
It's as if this can reduce some of the tension in my heart.
Jiang Wu, who was in front, was completely unaware of this. Worried that Mi Qingying might not have heard him, he said loudly, "Keep an eye on things and let me know when we're almost there."
But there was no response.
Jiang Wu subconsciously turned his head to look at Mi Qingying, only to find that her face was pale, her lips were purple, and her forehead was covered in sweat.
Those big, emotionless eyes of hers were now even somewhat stiff.
Jiang Wu asked in confusion, "What's wrong with you?"
Ke Mi Qingying still didn't react, just staring blankly at herself.
Jiang Wu looked at Mi Qingying with suspicion, then suddenly realized and asked, "Are you afraid of heights?"
Mi Qingying finally nodded this time.
Jiang Wu laughed, took out several bottles of drinks, some Snickers bars, and some chocolates from a row of large bags hanging from the bird's neck, placed them in front of Mi Qingying, then sat down behind her and smiled, "Alright, have some drinks to calm your nerves. I'll sit behind you, so you don't have to worry about falling off."
After all, Chen Yin had impersonated Mi Qingying several times and acted recklessly for a long time, so Jiang Wu had a natural affinity for Mi Qingying.
Remembering something, Jiang Wu walked forward, took out a snakeskin robe from a bag, and handed it to Mi Qingying, saying, "This is made of level three giant python skin. It's impervious to blades and spears. Even an M3 can't easily cut through it. Put it on first to save your life."
Mi Qingying stared blankly at the drinks and snacks in front of her, then at the robe Jiang Wu offered her. She subconsciously shook her head and said, "No need."
Jiang Wu smiled slightly, opened the robe, and was about to help Mi Qingying put it on.
Mi Qingying instinctively backed away, but she forgot that she was currently experiencing extreme acrophobia.
She fell backward.
Jiang Wu found it amusing, and with quick reflexes, he grabbed her hand and pulled her up, smiling slightly. "You yourself said the place you're going to is very dangerous. Wear this to save your life. Don't be polite with me now."
Noticing that she seemed to be trembling slightly and that her hands were terribly cold, Jiang Wu simply offered to help her put on the robe.
The next second, Jiang Wu couldn't help but frown again and said softly, "Why don't you take off the clothes that are covered in zombie blood? You can take me to the place where I heard the roar before. You don't need to come in with me and risk your life. Don't worry, with me here and this robe protecting you, you won't get hurt."
Ke Mi Qingying simply lowered her head and remained silent.
Jiang Wu glanced at her hand tightly gripping the bird feather, then stopped talking and helped her change her clothes.
Mi Qingying wanted to refuse, but her body seemed to be out of her control at that moment.
We can only let the other party do as they please.
Jiang Wu skillfully changed her into a long robe and threw the long cloak stained with zombie blood down.
It smells so bad!
After doing all this, Jiang Wu opened a bottle of Coke for Mi Qingying and handed it to her, then peeled open a Snickers bar.
"Come on, have something to eat. That should ease your tension," Jiang Wu said encouragingly.
Mi Qingying glanced at the food that was almost within reach in Jiang Wu's hand and couldn't help but swallow.
Jiang Wu thought she was still nervous, so he simply fed her directly.
Mi Qingying pursed her lips, wanting to turn her head away.
Jiang Wu casually said, "Either I feed you, or you eat by yourself. We have to go to a dangerous place later."
Mi Qingying lowered her head and said softly, "I'm not hungry."
As soon as she finished speaking, Mi Qingying's stomach made a soft rumbling sound.
Jiang Wu laughed and said with a smile, "But your stomach is protesting. After all, you've lived in this world for so long. When faced with such exquisite food, shouldn't you seize the opportunity to eat your fill first?"
As he spoke, he handed the Snickers bar forward again, smiling as he looked at Mi Qingying.
Mi Qingying said softly, "No need, I will take you there, and I am not afraid of death."
Jiang Wu laughed and said, "Eat it. Consider it a form of reward. Besides, since you can live well, why die? Under my control, you can return to your normal life."
Mi Qingying slowly raised her head and quietly looked at Jiang Wu.
In this cold and cruel apocalypse, she had long been accustomed to bearing everything alone, and the kindness of others was a luxury to her.
More often than not, those good intentions are actually feigned; they just want to get her.
But now, she couldn't sense the other party's intentions at all.
On the contrary, it is a kind of sincerity.
