Chapter 94: Little Zombie Cubs and Grandpa Ming in the Old World.
[Little host! Little host! ! !]
006's anxious voice rang in his mind, constantly calling Gu Rong.
Gu Rong suddenly opened his eyes and found that the snow had stopped and the sun was rising. The warm sunlight shone down, dispelling the chill.
Gu Rong blinked and found that he was still under the bridge as yesterday, but the clothes on his body were no longer down jackets, but navy blue sweatshirt suits.
The world was covered with snow, and a thin layer of ice formed on the ground. Gu Rong's clothes seemed too thin, but he did not feel the cold at all.
【Little host! 】
006's voice sounded in my mind again.
Gu Rong was stunned and said: [006?]
006: [It's me, little host! ]
When Gu Rong turned around, the whole cub froze in place.
He saw another self huddled under the bridge, wearing a dirty down jacket and a brown panda hat on his head. He was curled up in a small ball with his eyes closed. He had become stiff as a sculpture, and white frost had formed under his nose.
Gu Rong stared at himself blankly, a little confused for a moment, not knowing what was going on.
There was also a hint of sadness in 006's voice: [Little host, are you okay? ]
Gu Rong asked: [Why are there two cubs?]
006 said: [Little host, this is the old world, the past. What you are experiencing is all that has already happened in the past.]
The details may differ, but the outcome remains the same.
But Gu Rong did not remember that he had died.
He remembered that he had once gone out to look for his parents, but he had gotten lost and ended up under a bridge. He had fallen into a coma for a long time, and when he woke up, he had turned into a little zombie cub.
It turned out that he died of starvation and freezing on a cold snowy night.
Seeing himself die with his own eyes, Gu Rong felt nothing in his heart. He was just wondering: "That kid is dead, how did he become a little zombie?"
At this time, Gu Rong saw the black kitten appear in front of another self.
Then, the black kitten transformed into a three-year-old cub wearing a wide robe with big sleeves.
The three-year-old cub lowered his eyes and looked quietly at the little ball on the ground for a long time.
Gu Rong stared at the scene in a daze.
Lord Devil...?
The little black cat is actually the devil!
It turns out that what he saw yesterday was not an illusion, it was really the Devil.
Gu Rong stood not too far away, looking at his past self and Lu Li.
In his last life, there was indeed a little black cat following him like a little follower.
Although the little black cat was very rebellious and had a bad face, and didn't know how to be nice and please others, it accompanied Gu Rong through the last years of his life.
Gu Rong always remembered this little black cat, but it was not until this moment that he realized that the little black cat was Lu Li.
It turned out that he had seen the devil a long time ago.
Lu Li looked down at Gu Rong for a long time, then cut his finger, and a drop of bright red blood dripped from his fingertip, which he fed to the cub that had become as stiff as an ice sculpture.
Seeing this scene, Gu Rong widened his eyes.
Then, he saw his pale face, which had been dead, become rosy and lively again, and a scratch on his face healed instantly. His eyelashes trembled, as if he was about to open his eyes.
At this moment, Lu Li suddenly turned around and looked at Gu Rong.
Their eyes met, and Gu Rong was stunned.
But it was only a second, and the next moment, Gu Rong was suddenly sucked over by a suction force. A white light flashed in front of his eyes, making it difficult for him to open his eyes.
When she opened her eyes again, Gu Rong found that he was squatting on the ground, wearing a down jacket and small cotton boots.
He was back in his old self again.
Gu Rong looked at his own hands and called out 006 in his mind: [006?]
006 said: [Little host, 006 is here! ]
Gu Rong asked: [Why did you come back to me, cub?]
006 said: [Because the little host's wish has always been to find his parents and Grandpa Ming. The little host has not yet met your Grandpa Ming.]
Gu Rong said: [Has Zizi turned into a little zombie now?]
006 said: [Yes, the little host drank the blood of the devil and turned into a little zombie.]
Ordinary zombies are transformed by being infected with the zombie virus, but Gu Rong is different. He drank the blood of the devil. This is why he is different from other zombies in every way.
The other zombies were ugly and hideous, lacking humanity, but Gu Rong was no different from a human cub in both appearance and psychology.
This is also the reason why he smells human blood.
Because he is not an ordinary little zombie at all, he naturally cannot drink ordinary human blood.
Gu Rong was about to get up from the ground, but found that he couldn't move. He was still wondering, when someone ran towards him with a flurry of footsteps.
"Let's hide under the bridge for a while. Damn, this zombie is so fast, my lungs are about to explode!!"
Gu Rong looked through the gap between the cardboard boxes and saw three middle-aged men covered in blood running towards them.
Perhaps they had just escaped from the zombies' pursuit. They looked disheveled, unstable, and gasping for breath.
The three of them casually lay down on the cardboard box and calmed their breathing.
Probably because they were sure it was safe, the three of them started chatting in a rough voice again.
"Damn it, why don't humans die out? This state of being neither dead nor alive is too torturous!"
"I can't stand this life of wandering from place to place for even a day. When will it end?"
"It's good that it's the end of the world. Now, rich or poor, noble or humble, everyone is brought to the same level. I have to say, I feel balanced at last!"
"Fuck you, you're balanced, but I just paid off my mortgage, damn it!!"
"Alas, the most critical issue now is food! The feeling of starvation is too uncomfortable. There are many corpses along the way, but unfortunately they have all been eaten by zombies and infected."
When it came to the real pain, the three of them fell silent and sighed.
At this moment, a man stood up from the ground and exclaimed: "Hey, what's that noise?"
The other two also stood up from the waste paper box in an instant and looked behind them warily.
A portion of the stacked waste cardboard boxes collapsed, revealing a cub huddled in a small ball inside the boxes.
Gu Rong was trying to gain leverage to stand up from the ground when he accidentally knocked over a cardboard box, causing a noise and alarming the three people.
When they saw Gu Rong, the three of them were stunned.
Then, his expression quickly changed.
The three of them looked at each other and saw the same idea in each other's eyes.
They haven't eaten for a long time.
Seeing a cute little cub, they themselves were almost dead and could no longer arouse sympathy.
Those corpses had been bitten by zombies and were infected with zombie poison, but the little cub in front of him was still alive. Although it looked dirty, it was undoubtedly a living person.
Gu Rong is now a little zombie cub who can keenly perceive the kindness and malice of others and immediately sense the danger and malice of the other party.
Without even thinking, he wanted to get up, turn around and run.
But his body was out of control, as if dominated by another force, and he drilled directly under a pile of abandoned pipes and went in.
The pipe was too narrow. Gu Rong could get in, but three adult men couldn't.
They lay on the ground, looking at the cubs that had crawled into the middle of the pipe and remained motionless. They cursed angrily and kicked the pipe several times, but there was nothing they could do.
Gu Rong also noticed something was wrong and asked curiously: [Why can't you control your body, Zizi?]
006 said: [The little host is now only in the body of his past self, but his body is still controlled by the little host of the past. The little host is just a bystander.]
Gu Rong seemed to understand but not quite.
But he remembered that he had indeed encountered these three people before, and they wanted to eat him. At that time, he didn't know that he had become a little zombie. When he encountered bad guys who wanted to eat him, his first reaction was to hide. Because he couldn't run away, nor could he fight.
The three men had been squatting under the bridge. They had finally found food and they would not give up easily.
Gu Rong is so small that he can only hide in the pipe. He refuses to go out no matter what, because if he goes out he will be eaten.
After hiding in the pipe from dawn to dusk, the three men finally gave up.
Countless pairs of eyes seemed to be hidden in the darkness, and zombies could come at any time. They couldn't waste any more time here.
Maybe this cub will starve to death and never come out again.
After the three of them left for a long time, Gu Rong fell asleep again.
Until a chirping sound rang in my ears.
Gu Rong opened his eyes and found a rat about the same size as him crawling out of the pipe and approaching him.
Gu Rong was naturally not afraid and did not think of hiding, but his body moved uncontrollably and began to crawl inside to avoid the rats.
Gu Rong couldn't control his body and was very uncomfortable.
The mouse was very agile and good at crawling, and now that it had mutated, it was even faster than lightning.
But in the blink of an eye, it crawled behind Gu Rong and opened its mouth to bite the cub's feet.
Gu Rong instinctively kicked with her little feet, and the next second, the big rat was kicked away. It was launched out of the pipe like a cannonball, and with a whoosh, it flew hundreds of meters out of the bridge hole and disappeared.
Big Mouse: ? ? !
Gu Rong opened her mouth into an "O" shape and looked at her own little feet in disbelief.
After turning into a little zombie, he possessed supernatural powers. This was the first time he used them, and he was shocked.
Gu Rong felt shocked, and then he found himself crawling out of the pipe on all fours.
After crawling and crawling, Gu Rong finally crawled out and put his hands on a pair of feet, above which were a pair of legs and a crutch.
“…”
Gu Rong paused and slowly looked up, and saw an old man with gray hair and a face covered with dry bark, walking slowly.
The old man was leaning on a crutch in one hand and holding the mutant rat that Gu Rong had just kicked away in the other. Half of the rat's head was missing and it was deader than dead.
The old man frowned and looked down at the little ball in front of him. He was silent for a while before speaking fiercely:
"Where did you come from, little brat? Go away, don't block your grandfather's roasted rat dinner."
Gu Rong recognized at a glance that the bad-tempered old man was Grandpa Ming.
But at this moment, the two met for the first time. He wanted to call him Grandpa Ming, but he couldn't open his mouth.
After the old man finished speaking, he ignored Gu Rong, pulled back his foot that was being held down by the kid, walked to an open space, used a waste cardboard box as firewood, and began to prepare his rat feast.
The old man was carrying a bag on his back. He took out half a bag of salt from the bag and prepared to sprinkle it on the roasted mouse later.
The old man ignored Gu Rong the whole time, as if he didn't exist.
Seeing that the old man was not like the three bad uncles before, who wanted to eat him and didn't even look at him, Gu Rong found a small corner, hugged his knees, and curled up quietly.
Now he has nowhere else to go except this bridge arch.
It was dark outside again, so even if he wanted to find another place, he had to wait until daybreak.
Gu Rong was quiet and well-behaved. He didn't say a word and stared at the old man who was busy roasting mice.
The old man didn't communicate with Gu Rong during the whole process. He roasted the mouse by himself, sprinkled some salt on it, and started eating it directly. He enjoyed it very much.
Gu Rong's stomach was growling with hunger. The aroma of barbecue that reached his nose made him feel even hungrier, and his stomach began to boil.
But he had just experienced being chased by three people, so he could only stare at him but did not dare to ask the old man for food.
It’s good that the old man didn’t eat him.
The old man ate a mouse leg, which was very plump and tender. After the mutation, it was even more delicious than chicken leg.
While eating, as if he noticed Gu Rong's gaze, he turned his head and looked at Gu Rong.
Gu Rong's little face, covered in dust, was dazed and timid. He looked at the old man but didn't dare to speak.
The old man looked very fierce. He stared at Gu Rong for a while, then tore off another mouse leg and threw it in front of Gu Rong.
The mouse leg fell half a meter in front of Gu Rong. Gu Rong blinked, looked at the mouse leg, then looked up hesitantly at the old man.
Is this for the cub to eat?
But the old man only threw the mouse legs without any other expression. Gu Rong grabbed the mouse legs with her little hands, wanting to eat them but not daring to take them.
The old man sneered, "You can kill a mutant rat with one kick, but you can't even lift a rat's leg with your hands?"
Gu Rong was stunned for a moment, then realized what the old man meant. The mouse leg was indeed given to him.
Without any further hesitation or concern for the old man's aggressiveness, Gu Rong picked up the rat leg on the ground and began to eat it in big mouthfuls.
