Chapter 678 is back
The next morning, when I woke up, I saw Gu Yu snoring with her head on my lap.
I was a little helpless. With the slightest movement, a tingling sensation instantly shot through my thigh, which I found hard to get used to and almost caused a cramp. It took me a long time to recover.
I took my bag from the side and placed it under her head, pulled my thigh out, and then limped to the door. As soon as I opened the door, a gust of cold wind blew in from outside.
The snow had stopped, but the snow outside was still thick enough to reach ankle-deep.
In this situation, it's impossible to drive.
"Ugh, it's so cold, close the door..." I heard a murmur behind me. I turned around and saw Gu Yu's body shrank, but she didn't wake up. I went outside, closed the door, and looked at the white world outside, feeling a little dazed.
It snowed around this time last year too, but not as heavily.
The snow crunched underfoot.
Jiajiang City isn't too far from us. If we set off at eight o'clock, it should take about three or four hours to get there.
Once we arrived in Jiajiang and met the right people, everything became much easier.
I wandered around the area for a while, and soon I found a snowdrift. I brushed the snow off the snowdrift and revealed the body inside.
I counted, and there were about seven or eight corpses piled together. Gu Yu must have done this last night.
I don't know how to judge her. If I say she's a good person, she saved us; if I say she's not a good person, she killed so many people.
She said she was going to Jiajiang, initially claiming it was for refuge, but after she demonstrated such formidable strength, I became a little hesitant and unsure whether I should take her there.
What if she has ulterior motives for going to Jiajiang? If I take her there, wouldn't that be like inviting a wolf into the house?
Click click click——
I heard footsteps behind me. I turned around and saw Hu Fei. He came to my side, clutching his still-painful head. Looking at the pile of corpses in front of him, he exclaimed in surprise, "What the hell is this?!"
I said, "Those people who wanted to eat you yesterday."
"It's them?" Hu Fei asked in surprise.
"Yes, it's them."
Hu Fei stared at the corpses before him, furious, but there was nothing he could do. After all, these people were already dead. He asked, "Did Gu Yu kill all of these people?"
I said, "Yes."
Hu Fei swallowed hard. "So it's true! I thought I misheard you yesterday. Who exactly is this Gu Yu? How is he so powerful?"
I shook my head and said, "I don't know, but she's not a good person. I'm really conflicted right now, I don't know if I should still take her to Jiajiang?"
Hu Fei didn't speak. After thinking for a moment, he whispered in my ear, "Let's take her with us."
"Why?"
Hu Fei said, "Think about it, if someone as capable as her is really going to Jiajiang to find a safe place to live, wouldn't that be great for you? If she has other motives, they will definitely be exposed when she gets to Jiajiang. It's not too late to take her down then. No matter how capable she is, she can't stop the large number of people in Jiajiang."
After thinking about it carefully, I realized that made sense. So I decided to take her with me. After all, she saved both of our lives yesterday, and it would be a bit much to abandon her now.
Around eight o'clock, Gu Yu woke up and rested for a while. Then the three of us set off on foot for Jiajiang.
We are now only 20 kilometers away from Jiajiang, so it should be a quick trip.
I don't know what the temperature is now, but we feel freezing cold with every step we take.
That makes sense. You don't feel very cold when it's snowing, but it's when the snow stops and the accumulated snow starts to absorb heat from the air that it gets the coldest.
We walked for an hour, and we were tired and cold.
Hu Fei said irritably, "Damn it, I'm freezing! Lu Xiaonan, how much longer until we get there!"
I said, "It will probably take another hour or two."
Looking at the snow-covered roads around me, I didn't recognize the surroundings, but we should be close to Jiajiang. As long as it wasn't too far, it shouldn't be a problem.
Hu Fei said, "How about we find a car?"
I said, "With this much snow, what's the point of finding a car?"
"But it's so cold, I don't want to walk anymore."
"Hang in there a little longer, we're almost there," Gu Yu suddenly encouraged Hu Fei.
Hu Fei and I looked at the girl and found that apart from her face being red from the cold, she showed no signs of discomfort or anything like that. She even had a smile on her face, as if she was very happy.
Gu Yu smiled at us and said, "I don't know how much further it is, but we've been walking for an hour, so we must be almost there. Just hang in there a little longer, and we'll definitely get there!"
Hu Fei seemed to be moved by her enthusiasm and decisively quickened his pace to catch up with Gu Yu.
I shook my head and followed behind the two of them, trudging along with difficulty.
Walking in the snow is not easy, and you have to be especially careful because there may be zombies lurking in the snow. If you accidentally step on a zombie, you'll be in big trouble.
For the rest of the journey, Gu Yu kept encouraging the two of us grown men, which made us feel quite embarrassed. Hu Fei originally wanted to rest, but seeing that Gu Yu didn't intend to stop, he continued to follow along.
I don't know if it was an hour or two, but anyway, when I was starving, we arrived in Jiajiang.
When Hu Fei saw the familiar school ahead, he plopped down in the snow, panting, and said, "Finally, we're here!"
I licked my chapped lips, grabbed a handful of snow from the ground and stuffed it into my mouth. The snow woke me up completely. The snow melted in my mouth and I swallowed it.
I instantly felt a chill.
I helped Hu Fei up from the ground and said, "Keep walking, we're almost there. We can rest once we get into the school."
We were not far from the primary school, and we could see that there were quite a few people inside. Hu Fei and I quickly walked over.
Gu Yu was also surprised to see the primary school and said, "It's great to run into someone as soon as I came in."
The three of us arrived at the elementary school gate, where there were guards. They became very wary when they saw us.
I stepped forward, and they immediately pulled out their knives.
I said, "Please inform Du Xu that I, Lu Xiaonan, have returned."
Upon hearing my name, one of the two guards at the gate exclaimed in surprise, "You are Lu Xiaonan?"
I was surprised. "You know me?"
“I know you! Ah! Yes, yes, I’ve seen you before. I never expected you to come back. Come in quickly!”
I was a little surprised that the person in front of me knew me. I didn't stand on ceremony and led Hu Fei and Gu Yu into the school.
I asked, "Do you know where Du Xu is?"
"I know, I know, he's in the principal's office."
