Chapter 70: This World Never Revolves Around NPCs
If you think about it carefully, it makes sense. After all, Gu Qinyuan is a super-powered person who has been reborn. It seems that it will be no problem for him to deal with the evolved zombies more easily.
She's not strong enough.
She had to find a way to draw more cards.
After the evolved zombies were dealt with, most of the remaining ordinary zombies in the shelter had also been killed by them, and the remaining ones were no longer a big threat.
As the two were clearing the remaining zombies in the shelter along the main road, they happened to find Hu Zi and Lu Yuanze fighting zombies.
Yan Chu: "It's them!"
Lu Yuanze and Hu Zi were surrounded by a circle of zombies. When Yan Chu was about to help them, he suddenly saw a plant root as thick as a person appear around them.
The thick roots quickly and flexibly wrapped around the zombies in that circle, twisting them into twisted knots one by one.
...What is that? A superpower?
Hu Zi turned around and saw Yan Chu and Gu Qinyuan. He opened his eyes wide in surprise:
"Brother Lu, Yan Chu and the others are back!"
Lu Yuanze looked back and saw Yan Chu running towards them, but her light-colored skirt was almost stained with blood.
Lu Yuanze suddenly became nervous: "Is this your blood?"
"Huh?" Yan Chu looked down and shook his head, "How is that possible? This is zombie blood."
Then she asked them, "Where are the others? Are they all okay?"
"We were just about to go look for them," Hu Zi sighed, "The three of them went to the Life Department to get some supplies, but they haven't come back yet."
As soon as the words fell, Hu Zi suddenly frowned: "Wait, is that Chen Qianxing?"
Yan Chu followed his gaze and looked back.
There were two figures, one big and one small, not far away.
When they got closer, they saw that it was indeed Chen Qianxing and Luo Yiyi, but both of them looked very embarrassed, with blood all over their bodies.
"Why are there only two of you?" Yan Chu asked, "Where's Luo Yu?"
Chen Qianxing subconsciously glanced at Luo Yiyi, who was silently looking down beside him, and coughed: "This matter... let's talk about it when we get back."
Gu Qinyuan stared at Luo Yiyi, narrowed his eyes slightly and said nothing.
After returning to the residence, Chen Qianxing asked Luo Yiyi to go to the inner room to rest for a while. After he came out, he first locked the door of the inner room, and then began to search in his backpack.
Hu Zi was puzzled: "Why is the door locked?"
"I'll explain later," Chen Qianxing said with a heavy face, "Luo Yu is dead. She was bitten by a zombie."
Yan Chu was stunned.
...dead?
"After we collected the supplies and came out, the outside suddenly became a mess. I don't know why there were zombies everywhere."
Chen Qianxing gritted his teeth. "We could have fought our way out, but when Luo Yu and I were dealing with the zombies, a man nearby pushed Luo Yiyi into the zombie pile to protect himself. In an attempt to save her, Luo Yu got bitten himself... I had no choice but to bring Luo Yiyi back first."
Hu Zi's anger flared up when he heard this: "No, that bastard! I'm going to go and settle the score with him!"
"...There's no need to look for him," Chen Qianxing shook his head, "He's already dead."
The man was a strange man. After Luo Yu mutated, the first person he bit was him.
Yan Chu lowered his eyes, feeling mixed emotions.
There was no such person as Luo Yu in the original book. I first came into contact with the three of them because Chen Qianxing was an important supporting character that appeared in the book.
Luo Yu and Luo Yiyi were just incidental. Since they were not annoying anyway, I just brought them along.
Even Yan Chu himself rarely paid attention to Luo Yu, because Luo Yu was gentle, didn't talk much, and had a low presence in the team.
Her impression of Luo Yu was that he was just an unimportant NPC.
And Luo Yu died like an unimportant NPC.
Yan Chu recalled that Luo Yu had been practicing martial arts and improving her combat effectiveness during this period of time, just to protect her daughter and not cause trouble for others.
However, this world has never revolved around NPCs.
It's so easy to die just like that.
Chen Qianxing rummaged through his backpack for a long time and found all the anti-inflammatory powder, iodine, bandages, cotton swabs and other things he had collected before.
Yan Chu's eyes fell on the medicine: "Are you injured?"
"No, I..."
Chen Qianxing hesitated for a moment, as if he didn't know how to answer.
At this time, Gu Qinyuan suddenly said: "Luo Yiyi was infected."
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was in an uproar.
Chen Qianxing's expression suddenly changed.
Yan Chu was puzzled for a moment, and suddenly recalled Chen Qianxing's action of locking the door just now.
Her heart skipped a beat and she looked at Chen Qianxing: "Luo Yiyi was bitten too?"
"She didn't!" Chen Qianxing retorted a little excitedly, clenching and unclenching the hand holding the medicine bottle, "She...she just had a little scratch!"
Hu Zi frowned: "If it's just a scratch, why lock the door?"
Chen Qianxing was speechless.
At this moment, there was a clanging sound in the room, like something heavy falling to the ground.
Chen Qianxing frowned and immediately stood up nervously to open the lock of the inner room.
After the door was opened, they saw Luo Yiyi lying on the ground with his back to them.
There were two obvious scratch marks on her calf near her ankle. The skin around the wounds was bluish purple and the blood vessels under the skin were clearly visible.
Chen Qianxing hurried over to help her up: "Yi Yi?"
Luo Yiyi was sweating profusely at this moment, breathing rapidly, and his lips were trembling constantly. He was obviously unconscious.
Yan Chu's eyes darkened slightly, and he took in all the medicine that Chen Qianxing had left outside.
She squatted beside Luo Yiyi, applied medicine powder and iodine to the scratched area, and then wrapped the wound with layer of bandages.
After treating the wound, she looked up at Chen Qianxing.
"A normal scrape wouldn't turn out like this."
Chen Qianxing was silent for a long time, and with some difficulty pulled the corner of his mouth:
"Her mother just had an accident, and her emotions are not very stable. Let her stay alone for now. If she really mutates..."
Chen Qianxing paused and said, "I'll take care of it."
Luo Yiyi was constantly in a state of fever and coma until the sun set and the sky gradually darkened.
Gu Qinyuan glanced at the locked inner door with a dark look, and without saying a word, he pulled Yan Chu out of the room and onto the balcony.
"No need to wait, she's already a zombie," he whispered.
Yan Chu's pupils shrank.
She knew that because of Gu Qinyuan's special abilities, his judgment of humans and zombies was quite accurate.
But Luo Yudu sacrificed himself, so he should be able to be saved, right?
Just as she was thinking this, a childish and hoarse growl came from inside the house.
She had heard this voice countless times. It was the voice of zombies.
Chen Qianxing stood up and went to open the door.
However, as soon as they opened the door, Luo Yiyi rushed towards them with his teeth bared!
