Chapter 583 Red Brick House
The next morning, Xia Yan opened his eyes naturally.
I looked at the time and found that it was only six in the morning.
It may be because there is something on your mind that you can't sleep well.
Xia Yan didn't linger on the softness of the bedding. After stretching, she got up and washed up, changed into yesterday's clothes, and rested her elbows on her thick down jacket. She prepared to go to the buffet restaurant for breakfast.
In the empty hall, only her footsteps could be heard, and Xiong Xiong's whereabouts were nowhere to be seen.
The buffet restaurant's food counter was still filled with hot food, and a robot was walking around the counter holding a rag.
Always be prepared to clean up grease stains.
Xia Yan hung his clothes on the back of the chair, took out his plate, and prepared to have a high-calorie breakfast.
When the restaurant was packed with customers, fruit pizza and supreme pizza had the highest sales. What’s more, the ingredients were solid and you could pull out long strings with just a light bite.
The mouth is full of the milky flavor of cheese.
Xia Yan brought a bowl of multiplying noodles, a small piece of fruit pizza, a pure meat and black pepper sausage, and finally a cup of black coffee to comfort himself.
Next is the time to enjoy the food.
Outside the window, the protective shield surrounding the hotel was outlined by the snow, and the sky was gray, as if it was going to snow again.
As soon as this thought came to mind, snowflakes like fragments fell down.
A drizzle of snow began to fall across the entire plain. Without the disturbance of wind, it seemed quiet and beautiful.
Xiongxiong appeared in front of the protective shield, lay on it, and looked at the smooth snow surface outside - the road that was dug out with great effort yesterday was covered again after a day and a night.
There is no trace at all.
The power of nature is always stronger.
"Xiongxiong, let's go. Arula and the others must be waiting anxiously."
The boss's voice came from behind. Xiong Xiong put on his down jacket and said, "Okay~"
Xia Yan and Xiong Xiong returned to the place they left last night. Just as she thought, Arula and the others got up early, had breakfast, and loaded everything back into the car.
Just then, Xia Yan saw a few drops of dark sticky substance next to the wheel.
Her heart skipped a beat and she looked at the four people.
She actually overlooked a very important thing. From the moment they came back, the two children did not show any excitement.
Instead, he went against his usual behavior and buried his face in Allura's belly, his arms tightly wrapped around her waist.
As if he was extremely scared.
Arula touched their heads and comforted them softly. When she looked up and met Xia Yan's inquiring eyes, she forced a smile and said:
"It's all right now. It was a living dead. Luckily there was only one, so we reacted quickly and nothing happened. We're digging a hole now to bury it."
They were prepared, knowing that the further down they went, the greater the number of the living dead would be.
But when you really see the corpse with a rotten face running towards you with agile movements, the visual impact is so shocking that your scalp goes numb and your legs are filled with cement, unable to move at all!
Sending the children to school was a decision that the couple considered for a long time.
They can accept it.
Arula hugged the child tightly, silently praying to God for protection and a safe journey.
Xia Yan didn't want to disturb them, so he walked quietly following the footprints on the ground.
After taking a few steps, I heard the sound of digging.
Then I saw Cairang with a serious face and the zombie who was tied up.
What Xia Yan didn't expect was that the zombie was still alive, with a rough rope running across its rotten mouth, preventing it from opening and closing its mouth.
Then the rope locked its shoulders and arms tightly together, and its legs were bent backward to the limit, binding its limbs together.
The zombie's gray eyes stared at Cairang who had his back to it, and it made a hoarse sound in its throat as it struggled to get closer.
The pit was not big, about two meters deep. He jumped out of the pit. Although he saw Xia Yan, he had no time to say hello.
He went around behind the zombie and lifted it into the air like a fish.
Cai Rang walked to the edge of the pit, grabbed the rope with one hand, and fixed the folded knees with the other hand, so that the zombie remained in an upside-down position and was forced into the pit.
He picked up a shovel and filled the pit with ice-covered soil, stomping on it again and again, trying to make it as firm as possible.
Xia Yan thought that was the end of it, but unexpectedly Cai Rang took out a deflated plastic bag from his pocket.
"I forgive you for what you did," he untied the bag, took a handful of water from it, and sprinkled it on the soil, "You just took the wrong path, it's not your fault.
"Rest here. I have sown strong seeds. They will take root in your body, pierce your eyes and head, and absorb nutrients while accepting all your sins. When the flowers bloom, you will see the light."
Finally, he closed his eyes and made a strange gesture.
It's all settled now.
When he turned around, the muscles on his face relaxed, as if he had already confessed his actions to the god in his heart.
"Let's go. It's best to get to the school before dark today."
Xia Yan had no objection.
Cairang led the way with the yak in front. The two children were still sitting in the old door curtain. Their mother Arula held the frame of the cart to prevent anything from falling and to help push the cart to save the yak some energy.
The wheels of the car made a creaking sound as they rolled over the ground, and the sound could be heard from far away.
Their shadows stretched out on the ground, connecting to the frame carrying hope, all blending into one.
The ruts have been rolling from the past to the present, and the family of four has never changed.
After crossing a new high mountain, the stream turned into a river with a wide surface and fast-flowing water.
At the end of the river bend, two small bungalows stood quietly like discarded building blocks.
"It's right there! The school is still there!" Cairang waved at the two houses and shouted "Hey, hey".
Even though his voice couldn't reach there, he still greeted her.
He seemed very sure that the people in the room had been waiting by the window, waiting for parents to send their children to school.
Going up the mountain is easy but going down is difficult, so Cai Rang stood in front of the car, propped up the frame with his back, and leaned backward, almost parallel to the mountain, with his heels pressing hard against the rocks as brakes.
Use your own strength to resist the heavy car body.
The yak seemed to know that this was a very dangerous thing. It kept mooing quietly, with its butt tilted back and its four hooves planted on the ground as it walked slowly.
Arula asked the children to get off the car early and followed behind with an expression that said nothing would go wrong and that they had to trust her to succeed.
They have walked this downhill road many times and are very experienced.
Only when the car finally stopped on a flat road did my legs start to tremble.
"See, your father is the strongest man in the world." Arula said.
Rest for a while and then continue on your journey.
They crossed the bridge over the river and reached the other side.
The two small bungalows finally returned to their true size and became two dilapidated red brick houses.
