There's no one in Chapter 641.
And so, under their threats, I had no choice but to be tied up.
Then they drove my car away. I was sitting in the back seat of my car with two men staring at me. The driver was the guy who had questioned me earlier; his name was Gao Jianlin.
As for who it is, I don't know.
In short, I'm really torn right now.
Although they tied me up, they didn't do anything to me, they didn't even hit me once.
I asked, "Brother, can I ask where you're taking me?"
Gao Jianlin smiled and said, "Sure, we're going to Linshan now. Do you know that place?"
I was a little surprised to see the mountain.
Gao Jianlin saw my expression in the rearview mirror and said, "It seems you know that the place I'm taking you is near Linshanfeng, which is a bit far from Longhu District. If you want to come back later, it won't be so easy."
It really is a scenic area near the mountains, but thinking about it, it seems that only scenic areas near mountains are suitable for living.
I had originally planned to go to Linshan, and since they are now offering to take me there, I might as well go. There shouldn't be any problems.
Although I know that Wu Shuang is in Longhu now, I haven't seen her in person, so I can't be sure. I'm going to Linshan now to see if the tomb is still there.
The car wasn't moving very fast. They had another car leading the way, and the road conditions were good. They didn't encounter many zombies, let alone people, so the journey was quite safe.
Linshan District and Longhu District are adjacent, but both districts are very large, and it's quite a distance from Longhu to Linshan.
The other person didn't talk to me in the car, and I was too lazy to pay attention to them, so I simply tilted my head and started to doze off.
About three hours later, they woke me up. As soon as I woke up, I saw the scenic area outside the car window, and a sense of familiarity welled up inside me.
I got out of the car and took a closer look at the scenic area in front of me. It was completely different from what I had seen a year ago. There were many newly built houses next to it, and all the uneven places around it had been leveled.
I turned around and looked at the path leading uphill, and found that it was still there.
Gao Jianlin came to my side and said, "Boy, I can untie the ropes on your hands now to show my friendliness, but you must understand one thing: without my order, you cannot leave here, go anywhere else, or talk to anyone else, understand?"
I nodded and said, "I understand."
Gao Jianlin suddenly thought of something and continued, "Of course, you can't cause trouble either, or I'll kill you directly."
"Okay," I said, and he untied the ropes binding my hands. Then I said, "Um, before you lock me up, could you let me go up the mountain to take a look?"
Gao Jianlin looked at me with confusion: "Why are you going up the mountain?"
I said, "I don't know how to tell you, but I really want to go up there, is that okay?"
Gao Jianlin didn't seem to have any intention of making things difficult for me, and said, "Alright, as long as you don't resist, anything is fine."
Thanks.
He pulled me toward the path leading up the mountain.
I came to the mountain path and remembered what happened here a year ago, and the scene of Wu Shuang dying in my arms that morning. My heart ached so much.
I came to the mountain path and to the top of a mountain facing east.
I looked at the slightly gloomy sky in the distance, and then looked around and found that there were many graves here.
"here……"
Gao Jianlin said to me, "This is a cemetery. If any of us die, we will be buried here. These ten graves are all of people I know."
I came to these tombstones and looked at them. I found the tomb that was still intact and made of piled stones.
I walked to the grave and saw the blurred characters on the tombstone. My heart ached when I wrote those words.
Gao Jianlin said to me, "This tomb doesn't belong to my friend, and I don't know whose it is. It's been here since we arrived."
I knelt down, stroked the eroded tombstone, and said, "This tombstone... belongs to my girlfriend."
"Hmm?" Gao Jianlin found my words strange.
I said calmly, "A year ago, when the zombie outbreak occurred, I came here with some other people to take refuge. At that time, I found my girlfriend, but she had already been bitten by a zombie and died. So I could only bury her here."
Gao Jianlin looked incredulous. "Wait, you mean your girlfriend is buried in this grave?"
I looked at him, nodded, and said, "Yes, is there a problem?"
Gao Jianlin swallowed hard. "Yes, there's a big problem! Because the tomb is empty, there isn't even a body inside! And the name on the tombstone is Wu Shuang. Don't tell me that this Wu Shuang is your girlfriend?"
I didn't answer his question, but instead asked, "How do you know there's no one in there? Did you dig it up to check?"
Gao Jianlin shook his head and said, "I would never do such a despicable thing. It's just that a typhoon broke a tree next to us and smashed open the tomb. We were all terrified. When we saw that there was no one inside, we thought it was just a cenotaph."
I turned my head and stared at the tomb. There was no corpse inside, so it seemed that Wu Shuang had really come back to life.
Now that I've said that, it's certain that the Wu Shuang in Longhu is the Wu Shuang I'm looking for.
Gao Jianlin then asked, "You still haven't answered me. Is your girlfriend really named Wu Shuang?"
"Mm." I nodded.
Gao Jianlin thought for a moment and then asked, "Is it Wu Shuang from Longhu?"
I said, "I don't know. All I know is that my girlfriend died a year ago."
Gao Jianlin said, "Oh right, you just said your girlfriend was bitten by a zombie, so she definitely won't survive. There are so many people in this world named Wu Shuang, it's normal to have the same name."
I asked, "Can I ask you a question?"
Gao Jianlin said, "Go ahead and ask."
I asked, "What exactly is the conflict between you and Longhu? Why are you so wary of them?"
Gao Jianlin gave a wry smile and said, "It's not so much a conflict, but in some things, the people in Longhu District have really gone too far. For example, the survivors in Hangzhou have basically been identified as just a few groups, and they are basically divided by district. We are from Linshan District, so this entire Linshan District is basically ours, and the resources here are ours too. Longhu is naturally the same."
"However, what's excessive about Longhu is that they always like to come to other districts to collect resources, which is a bit too much, don't you think?"
