Chapter 4
Jiang Ning ran a long way, he had no idea where he was going. There was a huge building complex here, and he was a little tired. He ran into a building at random, and then ran up a few floors along the stairs before stopping, panting.
He sat down on the ground with a plop, feeling uncontrollably proud. He thought, "You guys helped me escape from this danger. Goodbye, you vicious Qin Xu."
Although he was resting, he did not forget to prick up his ears to listen to the noise outside. The rumbling sound of cars stopped after about twenty minutes.
It was suddenly very quiet, so quiet that he felt like he was the only one left in the world, and the sound of the wind. He panicked and leaned against the window, looking out with his peach blossom eyes timidly. The world was pitch black in the night, without a single light. The buildings looked like dormant beasts, as if they would move at any moment and run over to devour him.
For a long time, Jiang Ning's world consisted of that small ward, and later the hospital yard, which was only that big. Now, he suddenly found himself in this boundless world - it was really wonderful.
Jiang Ning jumped up excitedly, the sound of the chains on his hands like accompaniment. He twisted his waist and hips happily, and looked outside seriously: "See? This is the world I conquered, haha——"
Jiang Ning ran out again. He felt that he was the biggest in the world. He had to find something to take off the chain on his hand first. Thinking of this, he sneaked back to the place where he ran out. He bent down and hid behind a building. He looked around for a long time in the moonlight, but didn't see anyone. It seemed that Qin Xu didn't leave anyone to catch him.
He had to praise: Qin Xu is awesome.
So he walked out boldly sideways, with his shoulders thrown back in triumph. He had been used to playing alone for so many years that he could act in a TV series by himself. How impressive!
Jiang Ning groped his way into the building, searching room by room. After searching four rooms, Jiang Ning, who was kneeling on the ground, pulled his head out from under the bed and pounded the empty bed board in frustration: "These guys are really plucking the feathers of the geese that pass by. Why don't they just pick up the ground and take it away?"
There was nothing, not even a bite to eat, a bite to drink, or anything useful.
Jiang Ning, with his dirty cat-like face, sat dejectedly on the ground, his stomach growling. He had only eaten one small piece of cake since he crossed over.
After a while, Jiang Ning fiddled with something and took it out from his pocket. Upon closer inspection, he found that it was the nutritional pill that Qin Xu had given him before.
Jiang Ning still looked at the nutritional pills with disgust.
You'll get slapped in the face if you eat it.
I won’t eat... I’ll be so hungry if I don’t eat.
After hesitating for three seconds, Jiang Ning opened the package of the nutritional pill, gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and stuffed the pill into his mouth. After chewing it twice, he said, "It smells so good."
He opened his eyes and slowed down his chewing. This thing was unexpectedly delicious, with a light milky aroma. Jiang Ning couldn't get enough after eating just one.
He licked his lips. He should have asked Qin Xuanyu for a few earlier. He wondered if there were any other flavors.
About seven or eight minutes after finishing his meal, Jiang Ning really didn't feel hungry anymore. He patted his stomach miraculously and said to the package in his hand, "You are my God."
After eating, Jiang Ning continued to look for things. After changing another building, he found a saw. The chain in his hand looked very thin and he felt that it would work.
So he sat down, clamped the saw teeth between his legs, so that the teeth were facing upwards, fiddled with it for a long time, grabbed the chain to fix it, and began to grind on the saw teeth.
The sound was extremely harsh, like scratching a blackboard with fingernails. Jiang Ning got goose bumps. He fiddled with it for most of the night, grinding the saw teeth flat for several sections before finally seeing the dawn of victory.
Meng Hu, who was wrapped tightly outside, appeared nearby. He was instantly attracted by the harsh sound, showing a vigilant look. He moved the machete in his hand in front of him. Although he was tall, he moved very lightly and appeared outside Jiang Ning's house silently.
Meng Hu huddled behind the wall, looking at the shadow cast on the ground in the room. A thin human-shaped shadow was twisted, and it seemed to be holding something in its hand, shaking it back and forth, and under that thing seemed to be a mouth.
Listen to the sounds, the rattling of chains and the singing?
Meng Hu listened carefully. The other party seemed to be singing: "Little rabbit, open the door and let uncle in~"
Meng Hu's heart skipped a beat. The eerie shadow, the horrible singing, and the strange friction sound made Meng Hu swallow his saliva. At this moment, the shadow stopped moving, and the singing and the friction sound disappeared.
Meng Hu was suddenly shocked. The other party was really not simple. He just swallowed his saliva, but he heard it. The hand holding the knife tightened a little. The shadow on the wall stood up, went to the top of the wall, and then bent along the roof. A sneering laugh rang out. Meng Hu saw the shadow's two hands, and there was something shaking in the hands, like a snake!
In ancient times, there was the image of a snake in a cup, and now there is the image of a snake breaking a chain in Menghu.
"Hahahaha—finally! This moment has finally arrived!"
The wild laughter made Meng Hu break out in cold sweats. Could this be a monster? After all, there are even zombies in this world, so it wouldn't be surprising even if there were monsters?
"Who else in this world dares to stop me?" Jiang Ning, who had completely regained her freedom, felt her second-year soul burning fiercely: "I smell—"
Meng Hu outside quickly smelled himself. Tsk, it turned out that he was still very smelly after not taking a shower for 7 days.
Jiang Ning raised her arms, closed her eyes, and reveled in the feeling: "This is the taste of freedom—haha."
Jiang Ning walked towards the door with a big laugh. Although Meng Hu outside was scared, he would never sit still and wait for death. Even if he died, he would die in resistance and fighting. He roared to give himself courage and chopped towards the door with the machete in his hand.
Jiang Ning, who was about to come out, was startled by Meng Hu's roar. She tripped over her left foot and knelt politely, repeating the classic scene.
Meng Hu's roar hadn't stopped yet. He stepped on the door with one foot and held the knife handle with both hands, anxiously and awkwardly trying to pull out the machete embedded in the door.
Shit, I chopped too hard just now.
Jiang Ning knelt politely and raised his head. Seeing such a burly man with a machete, he was so scared that he lost two of his three souls. The remaining one made him aim at the gap at the door and crawl through it.
Meng Hu finally pulled the machete out, but he used too much force and fell backward. Meng Hu was a little confused: "Huh? Why doesn't it hurt at all?"
Jiang Ning, who was flattened by him, struggled to turn her face over from the state of kissing the ground and said, "Brother, you don't feel pain, but I do."
He estimated that this Menghu must have weighed more than 300 pounds, and it was almost crushing his soul out.
When Meng Hu heard Jiang Ning's voice, he jumped up and turned to look at Jiang Ning. Under the moonlight, there were no monsters or ghosts, only a miserable little harlequin cat.
Meng Hu frowned: "Are you human?"
Jiang Ning turned over with difficulty: "Not obvious?"
Meng Hu stared at him again and felt that he didn't look like a human. Perhaps it was because the skin on the non-dirty parts was too white, so white that the blood vessels were somewhat obvious, which was a characteristic of a zombie.
Meng Hu took a step back and asked: "How are you going to prove that you are a human?"
Jiang Ning had never imagined that one day he would need to prove to others that he was a human being. He stared at Meng Hu with his peach blossom eyes and asked, "How are you going to prove that you are a human being?"
Meng Hu glared and said, "Now I'm asking you!"
Jiang Ning: "Now I'm asking you."
Meng Hu's eyes widened and then narrowed dangerously: "Don't talk like me."
"I'm not imitating your way of speaking. I'm just trying to prove to you that I'm a human being." Jiang Ning finally recovered from the pain and crawled up from the ground.
Meng Hu was puzzled: "How did you prove it?"
Jiang Ning: "The essence of human beings is a repeater."
Meng Hu blinked twice in confusion, then nodded in agreement: "You make sense. Why are you here?"
He was actually persuaded.
It's outrageous.
Jiang Ning was secretly observing Meng Hu. He was tall and strong, carrying weapons and a large backpack. He was wrapped tightly and even had a pair of cracked goggles on his eyes. He looked like a man with rich experience in surviving the apocalypse.
It's a thigh!
Try to hug.
He rolled his eyes and thought of an excuse: "Well, I saw a lot of tire tracks on the ground here, and I was thinking if I could find something to eat here."
Meng Hu looked at Jiang Ning, who looked very thin and frail. "Did you find it?"
Jiang Ning shook his head like a rattle: "I can't even find a clean vent, eh..." He sighed dejectedly. After grinding his chain for half the night, he felt hungry again. Although Qin Xu's nutritional pills tasted good, they were not very filling.
"then."
Jiang Ning raised his head and saw a bag of biscuits thrown by Meng Hu. It hit his face and fell down. He stared at the biscuits blankly and looked at Meng Hu in disbelief: "Give it to me?"
In this kind of environment, how could she be so generous as to share her food with him?
Meng Hu: "Nonsense, why would I throw it to you if I don't want to eat it."
Jiang Ning thanked him and his ancestors, opened the package, and began to eat voraciously. He swore in his heart that he must cling to this thigh and become his lackey. Selling himself would be fine, but... if he sold himself, it would have to be someone like Qin Xu, Jiang Ning thought. However, he didn't like Qin Xu, he simply thought Qin Xu had a pretty face. Yes, it was purely because of her beauty.
Meng Hu took out a sausage and started eating. "Up ahead is Inaba Castle, where the army is stationed. Many people, including me, are heading there. What about you?"
Jiang Ning choked on the biscuits and pounded his chest, coughing several times. It turned out that he was going to where the army was stationed. He sighed silently in his heart.
Goodbye, my spare thigh.
I can't go to that place.
Finally swallowing the biscuit in his mouth, Jiang Ning said, "Me too."
But he didn't dare say anything else. It would be unreasonable for a human being not to run there. He could only find an opportunity to escape on the way. But now he knew the approximate route. If Inaba Castle was in front, then he would definitely run to the back.
