The courtyard wall collapsed, despite the huge noise, Yu Xiaoxiao still stayed in Gu Xinglang's arms without moving. Tonight, she sent Wuhuan's lover away. Even though Instructor Yu was an iron-blooded soldier, women always seemed more emotional than men when facing love, and Yu Xiaoxiao was no exception. Her little Gu was fine, sitting here holding her. Thinking about the fact that Wuhuan would be alone from now on, Yu Xiaoxiao felt mixed emotions. As a single dog all her life, how could she have such a feeling of both relief and sadness? At this moment, only Gu Xinglang's arms could make Yu Xiaoxiao feel the stability of this world.
Gu Xinglang thought that his wife was only a thirteen-year-old girl after all, and that what happened tonight frightened her. He kept comforting her in a low voice. Young Master Gu called his wife Xiaoxiao and kept saying, "I'm fine, please don't be like this, okay? I'm really fine."
Yu Xiaoxiao sighed. Xiao Gu didn't understand her sadness. As an evolved human who had fought against zombies, she came to a world where the overall military strength of humans was not as good as hers. There were still people she wanted to protect but couldn't. What a sad reality!
Xiao Wei squatted down in front of Gu Xinglang. He was much more receptive than Xiao Zhuang. Looking at the two people hugging each other in public, Xiao Wei pretended not to see anything and whispered to Yu Xiaoxiao, "Princess, the monster inside was burned to death, and the bugs crawling in the yard are the same as those in the Huguo Temple."
Only then did Yu Xiaoxiao raise her head from Gu Xinglang's arms.
Xiao Wei said: "If this bug bites a person, what will happen?"
Yu Xiaoxiao left Gu Xinglang's embrace and stood up straight. Xiao Wei's question woke up the princess. Yes, what would happen if people were bitten by these insects? Is it like the zombie virus, one person passing it on to another?
Xiao Zhuang said at this time: "Yes, no one should be bitten, right?"
Gu Xinglang also said: "No one came forward, and when they saw insects, they burned them with fire, so no one should be bitten."
Yu Xiaoxiao looked at the people around her. They all looked normal, but the zombie virus has a latent period in the human body, and the length varies from person to person. God knows if these insects will become the same as the zombie virus after biting people.
Xiao Wei said to Gu Xinglang and Xiao Zhuang at this time: "Only you know whether you were bitten or not. What if someone else was bitten?"
Gu Xinglang and Xiaozhuang's faces turned pale.
Xiaozhuang looked like he was having a nightmare and said, "Well, what happens after being bitten? Will people become like that monster?" Is there any way to survive this?
Some raindrops fell on Yu Xiaoxiao's face.
"It's raining at this time?" Xiao Wei wiped the rain off his face.
A heavy rain came in an instant.
Oh my god!
Yu Xiaoxiao looked at the fire that had quickly died down in the heavy rain and yelled at the sky, "They are burning insects right now, why are you making it rain? Don't you think the world is miserable enough?"
"There are bugs coming out!" a bailiff shouted.
Yu Xiaoxiao quickly shut up and looked towards where the bailiff was standing.
Gu Xinglang saw the yamen runner stepping on the bugs on the ground and shouted, "Don't touch them, step back!"
The yamen runner heard Gu Xinglang's shout, but he had already stepped down, and a thick red liquid splashed out from the soles of his feet.
Yu Xiaoxiao ran up to the runner and saw a long red worm hanging on the runner's face. Its head was about to touch the runner's eyes. Yu Xiaoxiao said nothing and raised her hand to cut it with a knife.
The yamen runner felt a chill on his face, and the long red worm broke into two pieces and fell from his face to the ground.
"Wash your face with water!" Yu Xiaoxiao said loudly to the yamen runner.
The bailiff had no time to ask why and washed his face with the rain.
Yu Xiaoxiao looked down at the insect that was broken into two pieces and found that the two halves were actually wriggling on the ground separately. The insect actually split into two new individuals as soon as it broke into two pieces!
"insect!"
“There are some here too!”
…
Many yamen runners present shouted, and the heavy rain suppressed the fire, giving the insects a chance to escape from the sea of fire.
"Everyone step back!" Gu Xinglang ordered loudly.
Yu Xiaoxiao wanted to send down a thunderbolt to burn the whole yard, but this time, no matter how much she wanted, she was powerless to be struck by thunder again. After using too much force, Her Royal Highness the Princess suffered from tinnitus.
"Go find kerosene," Gu Xinglang shouted to Xiaozhuang, "The Dali Temple should have some, go find it quickly."
Xiaozhuang nodded, grabbed an official from the Dali Temple who was running back, and the two of them went to the Dali Temple's warehouse together.
"Princess!" Gu Xinglang called Yu Xiaoxiao again.
Yu Xiaoxiao was experiencing tinnitus at the moment, and a hissing sound similar to an audio jam rang in her ears. The sound was harsh and unbearable. Yu Xiaoxiao shook her head vigorously. At this time, she could only relax and release all the strength in her body. While relieving the tinnitus, it was also the moment when Yu Xiaoxiao was the weakest.
Gu Xinglang saw that he had called out several times, but Yu Xiaoxiao just stood there without turning her head. Gu Xinglang just hated that he couldn't walk at this moment, so he had to say to Xiao Wei: "Go check on her quickly."
Xiao Wei called over a few yamen runners and asked them to protect Gu Xinglang, while he ran towards Yu Xiaoxiao.
"Princess, princess," the yamen runner who was saved by Yu Xiaoxiao said to Yu Xiaoxiao, "My face itches."
Yu Xiaoxiao couldn't hear what the bailiff was saying, but she could see traces of worms crawling under the skin on his face. Yu Xiaoxiao roughly counted them and found that there were as many as five or six.
The yamen runner felt an unbearable itchiness on his face and reached out to scratch it.
Yu Xiaoxiao grabbed the yamen runner's hand. Touching the worms at this time would only stimulate them to wriggle faster. "Stand still," Yu Xiaoxiao said to the yamen runner. "I'm here. You'll be fine."
Xiao Wei ran over at this time, and after seeing the face of the yamen runner clearly, he was so shocked that he turned pale.
The yamen runner looked to be in his teens, still a teenager. Now that Yu Xiaoxiao had grabbed his hand, he was so frightened that he could not speak.
"Princess!" Xiao Wei's first reaction was to pull Yu Xiaoxiao back.
"Save me, save me," the little yamen runner shouted when he saw Xiao Wei pulling Yu Xiaoxiao away, "Princess, I don't want to die."
Yu Xiaoxiao took out the dagger that Jing Mo gave her for self-defense, and with a flick of the knife, she cut a gash in the face of the young yamen runner.
The rain washed over his muscles that were no longer protected by the skin, but the young yamen runner didn't feel any pain at this moment. He just kept telling Yu Xiao that he didn't want to die.
Yu Xiaoxiao glanced at the young yamen runner. He was still a teenager and had only lived in such a good world for a dozen years. How could he not be afraid of death?
Xiao Wei was annoyed by the little yamen runner's nagging and yelled at him, "Shut up!"
