Chapter 48 Ambush



Our people fell into a strange silence.

Lu Qianzhi slipped just as he was about to step forward, and everyone looked at Jiang Chuyi with indescribable expressions.

No matter what, He Sizhao is notorious and even the common people have heard of him. Why is it that when Jiang Chuyi speaks of him, he is like ordering a big dog?

He Sizhao himself also showed a subtle expression. He was not angry, but just looked at Jiang Chuyi with helplessness in his eyes.

"What do you want me to do up there?" he asked.

"Do whatever you can." Jiang Chuyi retracted his head. "I really don't like these people. Get rid of them."

He Sizhao and Su Mo both looked thoughtful.

Lu Qianzhi and the others hadn't spent much time with Jiang Chuyi, so they didn't know this. Although Jiang Chuyi had a bad temper, apart from her daily dislike for others, she rarely said directly that she hated someone.

These people just showed up, what did they do to annoy her?

Lu Qianzhi coughed lightly and said, "Major General He, don't be anxious. We are all survivors. Try not to use force if you can reason with us."

He Sizhao narrowed his eyes and looked towards the few people.

Jiang Chuyi showed her face briefly, and at this distance, it was enough for them to see her face clearly.

When these people saw her for the first time, they all stared at Jiang Chuyi, who was huddled in the car and only the hem of her white skirt could be seen, with greed and desire in their eyes.

A trace of doubt arose in He Sizhao's heart.

If a man showed this kind of look, he could still understand it, but the only woman looked at Jiang Chuyi with a desire that was no less than that of the men, and was even more impatient than the men.

This look was not just about coveting her beauty. If I had to describe it, it was like a hungry beast seeing a sweet prey, unable to hide their bloodthirsty eyes.

Lu Qianzhi took a few steps forward, ready to negotiate.

"Brother, this is it..."

"You don't have to leave the food, but leave the woman." Before he could finish, the leader of the group said, "Even if you're more in number, you can't be unreasonable. You took our things and you think you can just leave like that?"

Lu Qianzhi choked: "How did it become taking your things? You guys own this gas station?"

"We don't own this place, but we've lived here for a long time, so all the supplies are ours." The man said matter-of-factly. "You want to take it for free? Okay. Leave that woman here. One woman for a convenience store's worth of supplies. You'll make a killing."

His shameless attitude made everyone in the team boo.

Lu Qianzhi was almost laughing out of anger: "Wait, if you want to reason, I will reason with you. This convenience store is not owned by your family. Anyone passing by can take it, and whoever takes it owns it. You are using our things to exchange for us. Isn't this a very cost-free deal?"

"I don't care, this is ours." The man cast a dangerous look at He Sizhao and the other man. "Or do you think that just because you're soldiers you can blatantly rob the common people? There's no law in this apocalypse, right?"

"That's right, you just rely on your guns to bully others!"

"They're stealing our things in broad daylight. Let's fight them!"

"Leave the women behind! Leave the supplies behind!"

The others immediately started arguing as well. There were only six of them, but they were arguing like ten thousand ducks.

Veins bulged on Lu Qianzhi's forehead.

Although it is the end of the world, those who have stayed in the main base for a long time have no idea of ​​how chaotic the outside world is as those who have been outside.

After all, the headquarters still retains the minimum morality and bottom line because of the suppression, and no one dares to be presumptuous.

This was the first time he had heard such shameless remarks.

Because he was standing in the front, these people saw that they didn't want to take action and even came up to try to grab his gun.

"This gun is a good thing, keep it too!"

"It's obviously ours, why did you take it away?"

Lu Qianzhi was startled and took a step back: "Stop, it's dangerous!"

His gun was loaded. Giving the gun to ordinary people would be tantamount to turning everyone into a sitting duck.

He retreated step by step, but these people became more and more bold and kept chasing him.

When others couldn't help but step forward to stop them, Jiang Chuyi's impatient voice came from the car again: "He Sizhao!"

He Sizhao and Su Mo looked at each other and sighed helplessly: "I heard it, Your Highness."

As soon as the words fell, everyone felt a flash before their eyes.

Accompanied by several screams and the dull sound of being hit, no one had time to see how He Sizhao made his move. When he stopped, all six of them fell to the ground, either holding their legs or supporting their waists.

There was groaning all over the place.

Everyone on Lu Qianzhi's side was stunned. They looked at He Sizhao with awe, not expecting that he would not take action unless he did, but once he did, it would be like thunder.

Is this the strength of Major General He?

"We don't want to embarrass you, and you shouldn't be greedy." He Sizhao lowered his head and said calmly to the few people, "We can leave some supplies for you, and this is the end of the matter."

Several people looked at him with resentful eyes, but no one dared to say a word because they were afraid of his strength.

Everyone thought this was the result. He Sizhao had spoken, and no one wanted to object.

Anyway, they had a lot of supplies with them, so they divided a few items out, threw them to a few people, and then got in the car to leave.

He Sizhao sat in the back seat, while Su Mo and Lu Qianzhi sat in the front.

"Why do we still feed them?" Jiang Chuyi tilted his head and looked at He Sizhao, "I warned you, they are annoying."

"I'm a soldier. I can't attack people in distress. I'll help them when I can." He Sizhao answered the question seriously, then asked, "Xiaoyi, why do you think they are so annoying?"

Jiang Chuyi retracted his gaze and looked at the novel: "Believe it or not."

She could sense the magnetic field of other people. These people were not the "people in distress" as He Shizhao and the others thought.

He Sizhao was stunned for a moment, and his tone became obviously cautious: "I don't disbelieve it, really."

But Jiang Chuyi still didn't turn back.

He Sizhao smiled bitterly to himself, it was really easy to step on a landmine if you were not careful.

"Life is as bitter as a song." Su Mo sighed in a good mood in the passenger seat.

He Sizhao: "Get lost."

"Those people do look a little off," Lu Qianzhi interrupted. "At first I thought they just had strange logic, but after getting closer I realized something was very wrong with them. Major General He, Colonel Su, have you noticed anything?"

"Yeah." He Sizhao responded, "Their eyes are not right."

"Their eyes were wild and their limbs were slightly twitching, but after careful observation, I didn't see any signs of infection with the zombie virus." Su Mo's voice became much more serious when it came to his own area of ​​expertise. "There must be something wrong with them."

He Sizhao looked at Jiang Chuyi thoughtfully: "Xiaoyi, you think they are annoying. Have you guessed what's going on with them?"

Several people couldn't help but focus their attention on him.

"How would I know what's going on with them?" Jiang Chuyi said without even looking up. "They're not good people. That's all I can feel."

It was the first time for them to know that Jiang Chuyi had this skill, and they looked at each other in surprise.

"Is this... Xiaoyi's awakened talent?" Su Mo guessed, "This is a very special talent."

Jiang Chuyi didn't want to explain too much, so this attitude was taken as a tacit agreement by others.

He Sizhao looked at her, feeling a pang of pain in his heart.

No wonder she was able to survive at the hands of those demons. It turned out that her talent allowed her to avoid some of the malice.

But if she could sense the good and evil of others, how panicked and terrified she would be when facing those demons.

That's why she disguised herself, just like a kitten showing its tender claws threateningly to people, she just wanted to protect herself.

Jiang Chuyi felt that the car was unbearably quiet. When she looked up, she saw He Sizhao's eyes that had turned into a dark brown color.

The deep heartache and pity in it almost made her shiver, and she couldn't help but look down at herself.

What is going on with this person?

She had not forgotten that the outrageous speculation she had heard outside the tent was first proposed by this person.

Wasn't she being obvious enough? Why couldn't she see any impatience on this person's face no matter what she said or did?

She is always greeted with an inclusive gaze and warm arms.

At this moment, Jiang Chuyi clearly realized that He Sizhao really cared about her.

Feeling distressed?

Jiang Chuyi lowered her eyes, and the words on the book began to jump, along with her fluctuating heartbeat, and could not be seen.

Everyone is afraid of her, dreads her, and uses her. How can anyone feel sorry for her?

Even in this world, she knew exactly what effect the Zombie King's identity would have on humans. Once she revealed her identity, would this person still look at her like that?

Boring emotions, useless and ridiculous.

Jiang Chuyi's eyes darkened, and his fingers gripping the edge of the book were so tight that they turned white.

Human beings will never change no matter which world we live in. It will always be like this.

"Xiaoyi, are you feeling unwell?" He Sizhao asked softly.

He focused most of his attention on Jiang Chuyi and easily noticed her abnormality.

Jiang Chuyi didn't say anything.

This was the feeling of being cared for, something she had never experienced before, but unknowingly, she had become luxurious enough to squander this kind of care.

So He Sizhao is really warm. A small voice in my heart said.

The hands are warm, the embrace is warm, the eyes are warm, and the food prepared is also warm.

So what? Jiang Chuyi rudely suppressed the voice in his heart.

If it is still warm now, then use it. When it is no longer warm, get rid of it. There is nothing to worry about.

After confirming his own mood, Jiang Chuyi's fingers gradually relaxed and he replied coldly: "It's okay."

He Shizhao's eyes became even more worried.

Jiang Chuyi has never been the kind of person who would endure unhappiness in her heart, but now she is hiding it. Could it be that what she just said brought back some bad memories for her?

He Sizhao began to blame himself.

He quickly calculated in his mind what ingredients he had left.

Just as he was thinking hard, the car drove out of the gas station. Suddenly, the whole car shook and crackling sounds came from under the car.

"Not good!" Lu Qianzhi's face changed, "There's an ambush!"

He Sizhao and Su Mo became serious in an instant, and He Sizhao murmured a few words.

"Those few people really won't give up just like that."
