An invisible ripple slowly spread out from Jiang Chuyi's palm.
Apart from the zombies, no one noticed anything unusual happening here.
And at the moment when the ripples spread out, the circle of zombies closest to the car reacted first.
They were visibly stunned for a moment, then their eyes suddenly turned scarlet, and they pounced on the car with even more violent movements than before!
A few loud bangs startled everyone in the car, and everyone's faces turned pale in an instant.
Surrounded by so many zombies, the car couldn't hold out for long, and the body of the car was squeezed and twisted and groaning.
"It's over, it's over." A man in the back seat bent down tremblingly, ignoring the gun in his hand, holding his head with both hands and muttering to himself, "It's all over, we will die here, we will all die here..."
"Shut up!" The third brother yelled fiercely, "Take out your guns! If anyone dares to threaten death again, I'll throw him out to feed the zombies!"
He was hysterical, and his hideous, flushed face was reflected in the rearview mirror.
It was obvious that he was extremely panicked and knew that under such circumstances, the possibility of them surviving was very slim.
Jiang Chuyi ignored the chaos in the car. She looked at the increasingly excited zombies and fell into a moment of stagnation.
The system trembled and said, "Host, what are you doing?"
"Something's a little off." Jiang Chuyi rubbed her chin and moved closer to the glass. The zombie's dim, cloudy eyes, almost squeezed out of their sockets, stared at her fiercely. "...It shouldn't be like this."
The system looked at her face full of research and contemplation, and gradually an unbelievable idea emerged in its mind.
"You... are trying to control the zombies?"
Jiang Chuyi did not answer. She carefully felt the resonance between the energy in her body and the zombies, and tried to guide the energy that was absorbed into her body.
The zombie in front of her became obviously more excited and manic after seeing her, and began to bang its head against the car window desperately.
Bang, bang, bang.
The loud noises, one after another, were like the death knells, and everyone in the car showed a look of despair.
At this tense moment, the third brother suddenly turned his head, staring at Jiang Chuyi and the other person with his bloodshot eyes, a look of madness on his face.
"Open the car door and throw these two women out." He said harshly.
Wen Xi looked at him in horror: "What did you say?"
"Throw these two down, and the zombies' attention will be diverted. When they stop, increase the horsepower to maximum." The third brother's face looked crazy, but there was deep calculation in his eyes. "Our car has been modified. As long as they don't swarm us like a swarm, we will definitely be able to break out!"
The man in the driver's seat said, "But, big brother..."
"It's already late, Big Brother can't save us now!" The third brother shouted, "As long as we all keep a common story and say we were besieged by a tidal wave of zombies, and that the two women were too slow to move and got lost, how would he know how they died?"
"You devil!" Wen Xi understood his plan and cursed with an ugly face, then turned to the other men, "Do you really want to listen to him? We are the ones being thrown down now, but when we are all dead and there are still zombies, you will be the ones being thrown down!"
She tried to arouse the other men's vigilance and the remaining humanity in their hearts, but unfortunately, after the third brother said this, all these men stared at them with red eyes, their eyes full of desperate and cruel looks.
The third brother sneered, "Don't waste your energy. We are all living in fear. Now we can either die or live. What is there to hesitate about?"
Wen Xi was speechless. She looked at the hand slowly reaching out to her with trembling body, and subconsciously leaned towards Jiang Chuyi.
The girl was probably so scared that she didn't make a sound for a long time.
"I'm sorry." Wen Xi leaned against Jiang Chuyi and whispered bitterly.
She is a soldier, and her mission is to protect the people. Unfortunately, in this fucked up world, she can't even protect the most fragile little girl.
She slowly closed her eyes, preparing to face her impending death.
until--
Pop.
A crisp sound.
Wen Xi suddenly opened her eyes and found that the hand reaching out to them was tilted to one side, with a bright red palm print on the back of the hand.
This is……
She turned her head slowly and found Jiang Chuyi with a cold expression on her face. She was staring at the man in front of her with her eyebrows raised: "How dare you reach out such a dirty hand to touch me?"
This girl is really strong. This was Wen Xi's first thought. The man's arm was very strong, but she slapped it aside with a slap, leaving a red mark.
Then she came to her senses, and seeing that she was still acting so willfully as if it was a matter of course even in this situation, she didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
"you……!"
"Throw me down."
Before the third brother got angry, Wen Xi took the initiative to speak.
When everyone was stunned, she sighed and looked at the third brother with a determined look: "You just need someone to distract the zombies, right? Then I can do it alone. I volunteer to be the bait, and you can spare the girl's life."
The third sister fell into deep thought. Everyone in the car was shocked by her fearless words and no one spoke for a while.
The only sounds left in the car were the teeth-grinding scratching sounds and the high-pitched roars of the zombies.
This is like an unsolvable cage. It is a dead end inside the cage and it is also a dead end outside the cage.
Jiang Chuyi looked at Wen Xi and met her gentle gaze.
"Little sister, I still don't know your name." Wen Xi gently stroked Jiang Chuyi's black hair. She seemed to want to smile, but failed. "We just met for a short time, and we have to say goodbye."
Jiang Chuyi understood that this woman wanted to go out.
She probed Wen Xi's body and found that despite her excellent physical fitness, she was mostly suppressed by anesthetics and had not awakened any special talents.
If she goes out in her current state, she will definitely die, there is no chance of luck.
"You'll die if you go out," Jiang Chuyi said bluntly, "Given your condition, you won't survive even five seconds if you go out."
Wen Xi smiled bitterly.
"Now that you've made up your mind, why are you still dithering?" The third brother said coldly, "Ninth brother, open the car window and throw her out."
Wen Xi knew that she didn't have much time left, so she seized the last chance and looked sincerely into Jiang Chuyi's eyes.
"Little sister, remember, I'm not going to die for these scumbags. I'm doing all this just to protect you. I hope that no matter what you encounter in the future, no matter how difficult life becomes, you must strive to survive. Only by surviving can there be hope."
"My name is Wen Xi, please remember me, okay?"
After saying all this, Wen Xi smiled and closed his eyes, ready to face the impending death.
She felt a hand roughly grab her arm. The sounds outside the window became clearer. A strong, fishy odor instantly filled her nose. Sharp teeth were about to gnaw at her throat...
Just before her heart stopped, she felt another hand grab her collar.
The hand was slender, white and soft, seemingly powerless, but it pulled her back from the window.
It was the same force that Jiang Chuyi used when he pulled her into the car just as she was about to be hit on the head by the third brother.
Wen Xi opened his eyes in shock and met Jiang Chuyi's black and white eyes.
“This…this is…?”
Lao San and the others' voices of disbelief were heard. Wen Xi rolled his eyes and saw outside the car window that the surrounding zombies stood up one after another and staggered away as if they had received some orders.
In this miraculous scene, Jiang Chuyi's voice sounded calmly.
"I remember your name, but I hope you remember what I said too," she said. "I told you that you would stay and cook for me. What do you want to do now?"
Wen Xi had not yet recovered from the excitement of escaping death, and was stunned by this sentence.
She opened her mouth, but tears suddenly welled up in her eyes.
Maybe it was due to the suspension bridge effect, or maybe it was because Jiang Chuyi really pulled her regardless of the danger. At this moment, in her eyes, Jiang Chuyi was no different from a savior god.
Just as she was shaking and sobbing, the man's hoarse voice exclaimed, "Third brother, this is bad! Look, those zombies didn't let go of the car behind us!"
