At the same time, Lin Dan was standing on the roof of a heavy truck, overlooking the group of zombies below. Her left shoulder was stained with blood, and her arms, waist and abdomen were covered with scars from the zombies. The wounds were slightly black, and it was obvious that she had been infected with the zombie virus.
If it were someone else, they would have given up struggling and shot themselves by now, but she took out a small knife and directly cut off the blackened flesh, and then used her strong mental strength to force out the poisonous blood. She suddenly realized that her special ability was so useful. Apart from her, who else could completely block the circulation of poisonous blood in the body and force it out without leaving a drop?
Water-related abilities may be linked to healing abilities to some extent. Thinking of this, Lin Dan actually laughed softly, not worrying at all that he would be torn to pieces by the zombie horde. She took out a glass bottle filled with blood and threw it far away. The bottle broke with a crisp sound and a strong smell of blood quickly spread.
The zombies surrounding the truck immediately rushed over following the smell, but Lin Dan did not take the opportunity to escape. Instead, he took out a small spray bottle and quickly sprayed the medicine on himself. Then he took out another glass bottle and threw it far away. The second bottle was only as big as a thumb and shattered with little sound. The liquid inside was green and quickly evaporated into the air.
Lin Dan then sat down and bandaged his wound while waiting quietly. After a few minutes, a rustling sound came from underground, as if something was rubbing against the ground, in large patches, and even the roars of the zombies could not cover it up.
Lin Dan listened attentively, with the corners of his mouth slightly curved, seeming to be very pleased. Just at this moment, a tall figure slowly appeared at the street corner not far away. It was Dr. Xiao who had already left.
"Why are you back?" Lin Dan stood up immediately with a surprised expression.
Xiao Junlin put his hands in his pockets, looking relaxed, with no intention of answering her at all. He just looked at her quietly, his eyes flickering.
The two stood face to face for a while. Suddenly, Lin Dan took a few steps back, made a sprinting motion, then jumped into the air, jumped onto a nearby car, and stepped on the roofs of the cars one after another, quickly ran to the doctor and knocked him down.
Xiao Junlin was pinned to the dirty street, his whole body stiff.
Lin Dan felt a terrifying aura enveloping her, as if with just a thought, this aura would penetrate into her body and detonate every blood vessel and even every cell in her body. The feeling was so strong that she realized clearly how terrifying Dr. Xiao was.
But she had to use all her strength to resist the trembling of her soul, hugged the doctor tightly, covered his head and face with both hands, and said in a low voice: "Don't move, just bear with it."
A hot breath sprayed on Xiao Junlin's neck, making his whole body stiff. He was about to speak when he caught a glimpse of a black tide gushing out of the sewer pipe beside him. The tide completely avoided him and Lin Dan and rolled towards the group of zombies. The sound of teeth gnawing on flesh and the sound of wings flapping merged into one, making people's scalps numb.
Xiao Junlin took a closer look and realized that it was not a tide at all, but a dense group of insects. Compared to before the apocalypse, they have become much larger, and the bite force of their mouthparts is also amazing. When they gather together, they are able to swallow any living thing. After the zombies were eaten, the swarm of insects drilled into the underground pipes and disappeared, leaving only a pile of white bones and some scattered crystal cores that glowed brightly under the sunlight.
Lin Dan immediately got up and said apologetically, "Doctor, I have insect repellent on my body to prevent insect attacks, so I held you down."
Xiao Junlin stood up and looked at his dirty white coat with a grim face.
Fortunately, Lin Dan always kept a few clean clothes in her backpack, wrapped tightly in plastic bags, so she could take them out and change them immediately. The two took a shower and changed their clothes in a hotel on the street, then walked out feeling refreshed.
The city's water supply system is still usable, but the water source is polluted and cannot be drunk. However, this is not a problem for Lin Dan. She can filter out the dirt in the water and boil it to disinfect it so that the doctor can use clean tap water. Although Xiao Qiu was not around, it didn't seem inconvenient for the two of them.
"Doctor, wait a moment, I'll go pick up the crystal cores." The swarm of insects swept across the entire block, eating up all the nearby zombies. Lin Dan had no time to collect the crystal cores.
Xiao Junlin slowly walked to a street corner, stared at the broken bottle on the ground, and laughed softly: "Pheromone that attracts insects?" He sniffed it carefully and shook his head to deny his judgment: "No, it's not pheromone, it's a synthetic extract of plants that simulates the smell of pheromones. Do you also study entomology?"
Lin Dan answered while picking up the crystal core: "Yes, I have taught myself a little entomology."
Xiao Junlin shook his head with a half-smile on his face. It would be impossible to make such a strong insect attractant if one only had a superficial knowledge of it. Lin Dan really surprised him.
"You know what? Zombies will never become a major threat to mankind because they cannot reproduce and their numbers will only decrease. These mutated insects, mutated plants, and mutated beasts are the real enemies of mankind. The future will be a world full of danger and despair." Although saying such dark words, Xiao Junlin's expression was smiling, and he even enjoyed it a little. If it weren't for this damn mysophobia, he would definitely fall in love with the end of the world.
Lin Dan watched him step onto the fire hydrant on the side of the road, and after standing there with difficulty, he did not come down. The corners of his mouth twitched suddenly. The ground was so dirty, no wonder he couldn't stand it.
"Doctor, be careful and don't fall. Or you can stand on the roof of the car, it's relatively flat." Lin Dan wrapped a car with a film of water and quickly washed it clean.
Looking at the brand new white luxury car, Xiao Junlin felt very satisfied. He immediately jumped off the fire hydrant, stepped onto the roof of the car, put his hands in his pockets, and stood there elegantly.
The scene was finally harmonious, and the doctor's proper dignity was restored. Lin Dan then lowered his head and continued to pick up crystal cores. The bag in her hands was almost full, so she had to exchange it for an extra-large suitcase at a roadside luggage store. The ground was covered with sparkling crystal cores, most of which were primary, with some being secondary and tertiary, with various properties and colors that made people's eyes dizzy.
If other psychics saw this scene, they would definitely be extremely excited and excited, but Lin Dan remained calm. Xiao Junlin was only calmer than her. His dark eyes looked up at the gray sky, and no one knew what he was thinking.
At the same time, the Nirvana team was searching for the Doctor along the road. They never expected that in the blink of an eye, the doctor appeared next to Lin Dan, more than ten kilometers away. Even a rocket could not catch up with his speed. After searching for several hours, even climbing the steep slope under the road, everyone turned the car around and headed for the city.
Lin Dan had already picked up all the crystal cores, and found a brand new SUV in the 4S store. He took the doctor in the opposite direction. In the evening, they settled down in a private house on the outskirts of the city.
Lin Dan turned on the faucet and continuously drew tap water, compressed it into a water film, and swam back and forth throughout the house, vibrating and taking away all the filth. He then wrapped all household items with the high-temperature water film to carry out large-scale disinfection. An hour later, the originally dusty house had become clean and bright, and the foul smell was replaced by the unique fragrance of pure water.
Xiao Junlin, who was waiting in the car, finally stepped over the threshold and slowly breathed a sigh of relief. He simply couldn't imagine what kind of life he would face without Lin Dan. The car, house, food, and daily necessities were all filthy. No one would be patient enough to disinfect them for him, and no one could be as efficient as Lin Dan and create a clean world for him in the shortest time possible.
That's why he came out alone to look for Lin Dan. In his eyes, Lin Dan's value far exceeded that of everyone in the Nirvana team.
Xiao Junlin sat on the snow-white leather sofa, feeling completely relaxed and drowsy. He forced his eyes open and said lazily, "Come here and make dinner here."
Lin Dan doesn't need to use fire to heat food, so it doesn't matter where he cooks. She moved the ingredients into the living room and washed them carefully. She knew why the doctor kept an eye on her while she cooked, because he was afraid that she would be lazy and not clean the house.
The vermicelli soaked in boiling water becomes very soft. Mix it with thinly sliced ham and black fungus and simmer it slowly. After it is cooked, add the vegetables picked from the outside vegetable garden and cook for a while. Then sprinkle some chopped green onion and garlic on it, and dinner is ready. The drowsy Xiao Junlin has completely woken up, and his Adam's apple rolls up and down unconsciously.
Lin Dan put the tableware into boiling water for a while before bringing it to him.
Xiao Junlin took a bite of the vermicelli gracefully, then let out a long sigh. There were no outsiders to disturb them. There were only him and Lin Dan in the room. The air was fresh, the surroundings were clean, and the food was so delicious. There was no better life than this. Coming out to look for Lin Dan was indeed the right decision. The dust and dirt along the way were nothing compared to the comfort now.
"You should eat too, eat more." He rarely showed concern for Lin Dan.
Lin Dan nodded and ate very seriously.
The two of them simply stayed in the house. After all, Nie Ting had a lot of food to give to the doctor. After the insect swarm swept through the neighborhood, Lin Dan also collected some supplies from various stores, enough to sustain for a month or two. During this period of time, she plans to hone her skills to become more proficient so as to avoid being used as a pawn again.
She helped the doctor take a bath and wash his clothes, then returned to her room, poured all the primary crystal cores she had collected during the day onto the bed, then lay down in the pile of crystal cores, absorbing them while falling asleep. Her mental power became stronger and stronger. At first, she could only absorb one by one, but now she can absorb dozens or even hundreds of them in one breath. Over the course of one night, the crystal cores accumulated around her body disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The next day, feeling a surge of mental power running through the house, Xiao Junlin pushed open the door of the next room and looked at Lin Dan, who was lying in the pile of glittering crystal cores, sleeping like a giant dragon, and couldn't help laughing. How can there be such interesting people in the world?
