Chapter 82 Lodging
Qingli also hurled a lot of flames at the groups of zombies blocking her way, setting them all ablaze. As the flames burned, faint roars could be heard.
To clear away the zombies, only the tilted car windows were slightly opened to prevent the flames from spreading to the vehicle, and water was continuously poured down from under the car.
Meng Qiulan, standing to the side, gasped as she watched the zombie slide out of the car window, its face covered in blood and its brains filthy.
She glanced briefly at the handsome young man driving beside her, then tried to minimize her size and remained silent.
Are these the newly evolved superhumans in the world? I've never seen so many different kinds of superhumans in my life. The superhumans I've encountered before were far too weak.
The number of zombies only gradually decreased after they drove out of the city.
The people in the car ate something simple, and then Qingli continued driving for seven hours until they passed through a village, where they stopped. It was still a bit inconvenient to move around at night.
Ye Shang leaned back in his chair and slept for a long time. When he woke up, it was already dark.
The temperature drops drastically at night. If the daytime temperature is as high as 40 degrees Celsius, then the nighttime temperature is as low as -40 degrees Celsius.
Except for Ye Shang, who was still wearing his usual black robe without any extra clothing, the other three had already gotten out of the car wrapped in down jackets and military overcoats.
Even Qingli looked on with envy at Ye Shang's cool and non-cold appearance. Who wouldn't want to wear less clothing and not be afraid of the cold?
Meng Qiulan was unlucky. Even though she was wrapped up so thickly, the injury on her leg was too serious. Not only was her flesh corroded, but the thorns of the pothos plant had also pierced her.
If it weren't for the family's secret techniques stabilizing her legs, they would have been ruined long ago.
Liang You was also freezing cold, but his injuries were relatively minor, mostly superficial wounds that hadn't penetrated deep into his bones, so he could just bear the pain.
The village was quiet; even when they came in, there were hardly any people around.
Until someone discovered them, strangely enough, there were few people here, and not even any zombies were seen.
A group of young and strong men carrying torches appeared in the darkness. There were almost no elderly people, not even children, and only two or three women, who stared at them with blank expressions.
This is rather strange; how could there be no children or elderly people in a village?
A young man stepped forward with a smile and said, "Are you just passing through? Are you looking for a place to stay tonight?"
For some reason, Ye Shang felt something was off about his expression.
Liang You stepped forward and said, "That's right, brother, could we borrow two rooms to rest for a while?"
Ye Shang said, "No need, one room is fine. We'll just rest for a bit and leave tomorrow morning."
Hearing her say that, Liang You and Meng Qiulan were a little surprised, but they habitually did not refute her.
Standing beside her, Qingli realized something was wrong. Could there be something wrong with these people?
The young man laughed heartily: "No problem, just come with us. How about the outermost room?"
Ye Shang nodded, "Okay."
Those were indeed the outermost houses, after all, they were for outsiders to stay overnight, especially at this time. Even if they were willing to be brought inside, the people staying there wouldn't be willing.
A young man in a thick blue coat said to a woman in their group, "What are you standing there for? Go and boil water for the guests and make them something to eat."
Upon hearing this, even Meng Qiulan sensed something was amiss...
