Chapter 94 Twins
After a while, Xi Qing also came back, and the boy climbed up again and took Xi Qing back.
Xi Qing sat next to Yun Shuhuai and stroked the cat. Yun Shuhuai asked, "How is it outside?"
"There are not many zombies. I have killed all the zombies around me."
"That's good."
The boy has been running around since he came down. He first poured a glass of water for each of them, and then ran to take care of his grandfather.
Yun Shuhuai moved the flashlight over and shone it on him.
The little boy looked back at her and said, "Thank you."
"You're welcome."
Yun Shuhuai hugged the cat and gently soothed it. It seemed to be a little stressed and lay in Yun Shuhuai's arms and couldn't get out.
Yun Shuhuai and Xi Qing have been busy killing zombies and looking for cats for the whole afternoon. Now they are both exhausted, so they decided to rest here for a night.
There are so many zombies at the edge of the city, and they don’t know the situation outside. They have to send one person to keep watch, which is really dangerous when both of them are not in full condition. Although the environment in this cellar is a bit bad, it is safe.
Yun Shuhuai had nothing to do, so he leaned against the wall and watched the actions of the two children.
The boy first fed the old man water, and then brought out a bowl of porridge to feed the old man. The old man ate a few mouthfuls and waved his hand to indicate that he couldn’t eat anymore.
"Grandpa..." The two children were about to cry when they saw the old man's weak appearance.
Then the little boy wiped his tears and lifted the quilt to reveal the old man's legs.
As soon as the quilt was lifted, a strong stench came. Yun Shuhuai and Xi Qing looked over and found that the old man's legs were in a mess. Both legs were broken and placed at a weird angle. The lack of good treatment conditions caused the flesh at the wound to begin to rot, and the bones could be seen. The calves below the cut were completely necrotic and turned into a pool of rotten meat.
If Yun Shuhuai hadn't been sure that he was a human, he would have thought that the old man was a zombie.
After the little boy lifted the quilt, he began to sprinkle white powder that seemed to be medicine on the old man's rotten legs. Finally, he wrapped it in a plastic bag and covered it with the quilt again.
The boy tried his best to save his grandfather, but Yun Shuhuai knew that the old man would not be able to hold on for much longer with such injuries.
Xi Qing looked at him and could not help asking first: "Excuse me, what happened to your grandfather? How did he get so badly injured?"
Yun Shuhuai also had doubts, that did not look like a fall.
The boy was silent for a while before speaking: "He was beaten. More than a month ago, two strangers came. We gave them some water out of kindness, and then the two wanted to take my sister away. Grandpa went to stop them and ended up having his legs broken..."
Xi Qing frowned, "This is too much, where are those two people?"
The little boy did not answer this time.
Yun Shuhuai understood, no wonder the child was so wary of strangers, it turned out that he had learned from previous experience.
The end of the world is coming. This little boy is hiding underground with his sister and grandfather. You can tell from his thin appearance that he must have suffered a lot. However, the fact that this boy has three levels of superpowers also shows that he is not simple, and the two perpetrators are probably dead.
The girl next to the boy also has superpowers, but only one level. Now that he is closer, Yun Shuhuai can clearly see the girl's superpowers.
Yun Shuhuai has never seen the girl's superpowers before. She guessed that this girl is also a special type. The energy on her body is a rich dark green, which looks very ominous, as if it is the color of poison.
The girl was also taking care of her grandfather, but she seemed to feel that someone was looking at her, so she turned her head and looked at Yun Shuhuai.
Yun Shuhuai smiled at her, then waved for her to come over. The little girl came over, and then Yun Shuhuai took out a bag of dried meat from his bag and handed it to the girl, "Here, this is what your brother promised to give you."
The girl was a little shy, she took it carefully, and then whispered thank you.
Yun Shuhuai saw that she was staring at the pot-wrapped meat, so he took it over and let her touch it. The little girl seemed to like the pot-wrapped meat very much, squatting beside her and touching it again and again. After
the boy took care of his grandfather, he suddenly found that his sister was missing. Looking back, he found that she was sitting next to Yun Shuhuai obediently, lying on his legs and tilting her head to look at the cat. The boy was relieved, and then he also came over. Looking at the big fluffy cat, he couldn't help but touch it.
"Do you like cats very much?" Yun Shuhuai asked.
The boy nodded, "When I was looking for something outside, I saw him hiding under the firewood pile in my house, so I brought him in, wanting him to accompany his sister."
"So you didn't want to admit it when I asked you at the beginning?"
The boy lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry..."
Yun Shuhuai saw that he knew his mistake and didn't pursue it anymore. She and Xi Qing took snacks to share with them and chatted with them for a few sentences. Soon they opened up and learned a lot about their situations. They learned
that the boy's name was Ye Zixu and the girl's name was Ye Ziwan. They were twins born from a dragon and a phoenix, and they were also left-behind children. They lived with their grandfather since they were young. When the world ended, they hid in the cellar in time to escape.
In the early days of the apocalypse, it was the grandfather who took care of them. They moved all the tables, chairs and benches in the room into the cellar and lived without seeing the sun every day. Later, their lives got better after Ye Zixu awakened his wood-related supernatural powers.
The child was brave enough to go out and kill zombies and look for supplies in each household. Slowly, he began to level up. Later, he met the two men from somewhere else and learned that there was a base in H City. The boy wanted to discuss with them to go together, but the two men smiled at each other and wanted to drag Xiao Wan away. The grandfather went to stop them, but his legs were broken. The big hole in the courtyard wall was also broken by them. After that, he has been living here, taking care of his grandfather and sister, and going out to look for supplies and medicines.
The old man's calf fracture was serious. He had been hiding in a dark and damp cellar for a long time. The wound quickly became inflamed and rotten, and his body gradually weakened. Ye Zixu knew that he could not save his grandfather's life even if he tried his best to find medicine, but he just didn't want to give up.
The two didn't know how to comfort them, so they took out a few pieces of candy and handed them to them.
But the brother and sister were reluctant to eat the candy and put them in their pockets.
But Yun Shuhuai was still a little confused. The boy was the one who said the words just now, talking about the grandfather's broken leg, but there was nothing after that. The two perpetrators should be power-type superpowers. If they really resisted, could this boy really kill them unscathed and not let his sister suffer any injuries?
Yun Shuhuai looked at Ye Zixu and said, "Your ability is very powerful. You must have caused all the dodders outside."
"Yes, through them I can get a general idea of the situation in the village, and I can avoid a lot of danger when I go out to look for things."
Yun Shuhuai asked again: "What kind of supernatural power does Xiao Wan have?"
As soon as he said this, the boy's face changed. He took Xiao Wan's hand and protected her behind him.
