Chapter 53 The Uninvited Stranger



Everyone was eating when there was a knock on the door.

Everyone became alert, even Xiaojiu stopped eating.

"I'll go take a look." Tang Nuo said, stood up and walked outside.

Chen Zihang and Qin Ziheng also immediately stood up and followed him out.

The three of them walked to the front door. Chen Zihang opened the door only a crack and looked outside vigilantly.

Standing outside was a boy of about fourteen or fifteen years old. He looked thin and dressed in ordinary clothes, but he looked much cleaner than Tang Nuo and his group who had just gone through a big battle.

"Hello." The boy must be in the voice change period, and his voice sounded very hoarse.

Chen Zihang nodded and asked, "What's the matter?"

After what happened in the afternoon, Chen Zihang became more cautious than before and no longer trusted others easily.

The boy asked again, "Excuse me, are you soldiers?"

Chen Zihang looked at the boy for a while, then looked at Tang Nuo.

Tang Nuo also looked at the boy in front of him, and after a moment he replied, "Yes."

"My name is Yang Yiguo, and I'm from this village. Could you please come with us? My grandfather wants to meet you." As if afraid of being rejected, Yang Yiguo added, "My grandfather is a veteran, and my father is also a soldier."

Tang Nuo pondered for a moment before turning to look inside the house.

Mu Cheng stood in the yard, gnawing on a lamb chop in her hand.

Because of what happened today, Tang Nuo knew that Mu Cheng was unhappy, so he asked, "Can I go over and take a look?"

"I'll go with you." Mu Cheng handed the lamb chops to Wang Xintong beside her, wiped her mouth with a tissue and strode out. Although she didn't know why the other party called Tang Nuo over, she had to go over and watch in case Tang Nuo did anything she didn't like again.

Tang Nuo had no objection, nodded, and said, "Qin Ziheng, you and Xiaojiu both stay."

Qin Ziheng nodded in agreement. There was also Wang Xintong and two patients in the room, so someone had to stay here.

Tang Nuo, Mu Cheng, and Chen Zihang followed Yang Yiguo out.

On the way, Yang Yiguo told them that he was a gold-type mutant and that he had killed all the zombies in the village. As for the villagers, they all fled.

The reason why Yang Yiguo and his grandfather, Uncle Yang, did not leave was because Uncle Yang had difficulty walking and was not in good health, so he stayed in the village.

When Tang Nuo brought Qin Ziheng and others into the village, Yang Yiguo just came back from outside and saw them. Yang Yiguo grew up in the army and had just returned to his hometown with his grandfather a few years ago. He could tell at a glance whether someone was a soldier or not, so he knew who they were soldiers when he saw them.

After returning, he told Uncle Yang about Tang Nuo and the others entering the village. Uncle Tang then asked to meet them. As for why, Yang Yiguo didn't know, and no matter how he asked, Uncle Yang wouldn't tell him.

Because Uncle Yang is now bedridden, Yang Yiguo can only come and ask Tang Nuo and the others to come over.

After they walked for a while, Yang Yiguo pointed to one of the bungalows and said, "That's my home."

Tang Nuo glanced at the room and asked, "Yang Yiguo, you said your father is also a soldier. Is he an active-duty soldier?"

Yang Yiguo nodded. "Yes, my father's name is Yang Zilong, and he's a soldier in the capital."

Chen Zihang raised his eyebrows and glanced at Yang Yiguo.

Tang Nuo also looked at Yang Yiguo seriously at this time.

Yang Yiguo led the three of them into the main room. The room was not big and there were not many decorations, but it was very clean. The three of them almost simultaneously looked at the black and white photo hanging on the wall. The photo should be a family portrait, showing a woman in her thirties in military uniform, a man in his thirties in military uniform, and a boy of five or six years old in his arms. Judging from the background of the photo, it should have been taken at a training ground.
