Seeing this, Zhou Yuxuan rushed to Chen Xiaoru and helped her up. "Xiaoru, how are you?" His voice trembled, his eyes full of anxiety and worry.
Chen Xiaoru wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and shook her head: "I...I'm fine."
Zhou Yuxuan felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief. His heart finally settled down, but then he was filled with fear. If he had been slower, the consequences would have been disastrous.
"We have to get out of here quickly," Zhou Yuxuan said hurriedly. He helped Chen Xiaoru stand up. "The smell of blood is too strong here. It's not safe. It will attract other zombies later."
Chen Xiaoru broke free from his support and said softly, "I'm fine. I can walk on my own."
Zhou Yuxuan looked at her carefully and felt relieved to see that except for her pale face, she seemed to be fine otherwise.
He looked around and made sure there was no danger before he and Chen Xiaoru quickly walked towards safety.
"Yuxuan, look ahead!" Chen Xiaoru suddenly pointed to a place not far away, her tone filled with casual joy, "There's a car parked there. Let's go over and see if we can drive over!"
Zhou Yuxuan looked in the direction of her finger and saw an SUV parked on the side of the road.
Although the car body was covered in dust and dried blood, it looked relatively intact.
Maybe it can be opened.
The two men walked over quickly. Zhou Yuxuan reached out and pulled the car door, but it didn't move at all. It was obviously locked from the inside.
He frowned, thinking about how to open the car door.
Chen Xiaoru had already picked up the frying pan and smashed it against the car window.
The glass shattered with a crisp sound.
"You..." Zhou Yuxuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This girl was still so impetuous.
Chen Xiaoru raised her eyebrows proudly, got into the car first and unlocked the door.
Zhou Yuxuan shook his head helplessly and sat in.
The car was spacious and had comfortable seats. There were still dark red bloodstains on the steering wheel, emitting a faint fishy smell.
Zhou Yuxuan rummaged through the car, found the key in the glove box, and tried to start the engine.
"Buzz——" The engine made a low roar, and the car actually started!
Chen Xiaoru looked ahead expressionlessly and said calmly, "I'm pretty lucky."
Zhou Yuxuan showed a gentle smile on his face. He skillfully shifted gears, stepped on the accelerator, and the off-road vehicle slowly drove out.
As he drove, he said softly, "This car is nice. It should have been quite expensive before the end of the world."
Chen Xiaoru glanced at him coldly and said in a cold tone: "Hurry up and leave."
The smile on Zhou Yuxuan's lips deepened, with a hint of barely perceptible obsession.
He didn't say anything and concentrated on driving, but his eyes would fall on Chen Xiaoru from time to time, his eyes filled with unmelting tenderness.
The off-road vehicle sped along the road, with desolate scenes on both sides, collapsed houses, abandoned vehicles, wandering zombies... forming a unique landscape of the end of the world.
Suddenly, a faint cry for help came from a distance.
"Help! Is there anyone here?"
"Someone come and rescue us!"
Zhou Yuxuan and Chen Xiaoru looked at each other, and both saw a hint of solemnity in each other's eyes.
"It sounds like someone is calling for help." Zhou Yuxuan said. He slowed down the car and carefully identified the direction from which the sound came.
Chen Xiaoru frowned, listened attentively for a while, and said, "The sound came from the front. Let's go over and take a look."
Zhou Yuxuan nodded and drove the car in the direction of the sound.
The off-road vehicle drove for a distance, and the scene in front of them made the two men gasp.
I saw a dozen people being trapped by a group of zombies beside an overturned bus. They were holding various weapons in their hands and desperately resisting the zombies' attack, but it was obvious that they were already unable to do so.
"There are too many zombies!" Zhou Yuxuan exclaimed. He roughly counted and found that there were at least hundreds of zombies.
"Saving lives is the most important thing!" Chen Xiaoru said decisively.
"Okay!" Zhou Yuxuan took a deep breath, stepped on the accelerator, and the off-road vehicle rushed forward like an angry bull.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" The off-road vehicle directly knocked away several zombies blocking the road and stopped not far from the crowd.
Zhou Yuxuan quickly got out of the car and waved his arm. Bolts of lightning shot out from his hands, accurately hitting the zombies that were besieging the crowd.
Chen Xiaoru also jumped out of the car and rushed into the group of zombies waving a frying pan. Her movements were clean and neat, and each blow could knock down a zombie.
When the survivors saw someone saving them, the already desperate crowd suddenly became energized. They waved their weapons and fought the zombies even harder.
With the addition of Zhou Yuxuan and Chen Xiaoru, the situation reversed instantly.
Those originally ferocious zombies fell to the ground one after another under the attack of lightning and frying pans.
In less than ten minutes, all the zombies besieging the crowd were wiped out.
After the battle, everyone gathered around and expressed their gratitude to Zhou Yuxuan and Chen Xiaoru.
"Thank you so much! If it weren't for you, we would be in great danger today!" A middle-aged man said excitedly, with a look of shock still on his face.
"Thank you for saving us!" a young girl said gratefully, tears in her eyes.
"You're welcome. We are all survivors and it's our duty to help each other." Zhou Yuxuan waved his hand and said modestly.
"By the way, why are you here? Where are you going?" Chen Xiaoru asked. She noticed that some of these people were carrying backpacks and looked like they were going on a long journey.
