Xiao Yue's condition became worse day by day. The lights in the house were on all night long. Pei Yanting invited many professional people to come in and out, but no one could solve the problem for three consecutive days. Almost everyone who was invited in came out dejected.
People inside and outside the stronghold were in a panic and couldn't help whispering to each other.
"I say, can Captain Xiao still hold on? Didn't he say he would give us a home? Is this still possible?"
"I want to know that, too."
"If we really can't hold on any longer, what should we do? Is there any base willing to take us in?"
"It's hard to say. Isn't the vice-captain still here? We should trust her again."
"Believe me, I don't have that much time to waste here. The zombie tide is too fierce. If Xiao Yue doesn't wake up, I'm going to pack up and run away to the newly opened base next door."
…
Pei Xiqing sat on the balcony, basking in the not-so-comfortable sun, listening to their heated discussion with a somewhat indifferent attitude.
She was on the second floor, and the people below were talking on the street on the first floor.
The weather has been bad these past few days.
It can even be described as terrible.
She likes to bask in the sun in the base because the base has protective measures. The sunlight that comes in has been protected, making people feel particularly comfortable. But here is completely a village in the wild. When the weather is bad, there are storms and rainstorms. Now that the rain has stopped, she eats sand and breathes polluted air almost every day.
Especially the environment of the village where we are based is very poor.
Although she is a person who can endure hardship, she couldn't stand living here for a few days.
Almost no one cleans the toilets, and no one pays attention to these things. The stench and the smell of blood in the apocalypse that can be smelled everywhere make people want to vomit.
Pei Yanting was not too strict with her about food and clothing. She also sent her two sets of clean clothes. She guessed they were made by the women in the village. The workmanship was rather rough and barely wearable. As for food, she ate whatever the people in the village ate.
Apart from not being able to go out, no one is stupid enough to come and cause trouble.
She was leaning on the balcony with nothing to do when another gust of wind came from nowhere, hitting her clothes hard, scratching her face and messing up her hair.
The people below no longer had the heart to discuss and started clamoring for the Mi family to collect the clothes.
Pei Xiqing couldn't stay on the balcony any longer, so she turned around, closed the door and left the room.
Everyone was worried about whether Xiao Yue could survive and what their future would be like. She just wished Xiao Yue would die quickly.
She also knew that Xiao Yue, a male protagonist, would not die so easily. If she wasn't careful, he could escape danger, or it might be a blessing in disguise.
Pei Xiqing wanted to just give him some rat poison and send him off.
But she was injured and didn't bring any poison with her.
I should have asked Qiu Chao for advice earlier.
I don't know how Brother Duan is doing. He should have left the zombie tide and returned to the headquarters.
As long as we can get to the headquarters, there should be no problem.
We have to find a way to let them know they are still safe.
Pei Xiqing rested for three days, and the wounds on her shoulder, ankle, and other large and small injuries on her body had finally recovered. She stood by the table, forced herself to drink two sips of not-so-clean water, and pushed the door open to go out.
Someone was guarding her at the door, and even the windows were tightly guarded.
Seeing her come out, the sturdy, dark-skinned man reached out to stop her and asked in a rough voice, "What are you going to do?"
Pei Xiqing: "Just take a walk."
"Don't try any tricks."
Pei Xiqing ignored him and walked out.
There is absolutely nowhere to go here.
It's just a small, run-down village that's isolated from the world.
Pei Xiqing casually walked along the country road, without finding anything that could communicate with the outside world. In the end, he ran into Pei Yanting who was in a hurry.
