Chapter 66

When he woke up the next morning, he was sweating again as expected. Hearing the noise outside, someone had already woken up. Yu Nan glanced to the side and saw that Zheng Jianling and Fang Yan were still asleep, so he immediately relaxed his movements.

"Morning." The person who greeted him was Wang Lechen, who was clearly in his thirties, but looked only in his early twenties.

"Morning." Yu Nan smiled, looking at An Yongdong and Liu Dong who were on the last shift, "Thank you for your hard work."

"It should be." An Yongdong scratched his head and replied with a cheerful smile.He pointed to a bag of rice placed by the wall, "Brother Cheng brought it up."

"Okay, cook the porridge later." Yu Nan nodded in response, took out a towel and wiped his face.

Others got up one after another, packing their luggage, and cooking.After a busy day, after dinner, Cheng Yongzhi announced today's task, starting from the neighborhood where he lived, and in a group of four, sweep towards the urban area, hunting and killing all the zombies he saw.

"Remember to remove a small piece of limb from each zombie you killed so that you can record DNA when you come back. Although the rewards are not many, mosquitoes are still meat no matter how small they are?" Cheng Yongzhi glanced over everyone, "Be careful, Keep in touch at any time, and if there is a small amount of supplies, just put them away, and if there are too many, contact me immediately."

"Understood!" Everyone answered in unison.

In addition to Zhan Xuyang, the members of Yu Nan's group also included Wang Lechen and Hao Jun. After leaving the community, the four of them came to a street called Huaihua Road according to the route planned in advance.Both sides of the road are full of locust trees, and now is the time when the branches and leaves are flourishing. "Be careful of mutated or zombified pagoda trees." Zhan Xuyang reminded.

"Don't worry." Hao Jun held a knife and was eager to try against the zombies who were rushing over. When they were 5 or 6 meters away, they immediately went up to meet them.Leaving Wang Lechen to clean up the zombies on the road with him, Yu Nan and Zhan Xuyang searched the shops and buildings on both sides of the road respectively.

Most of the two- and three-story old buildings on both sides are restaurants and shops, and there are also tobacco, liquor and daily grocery stores, followed by some scattered small shops that sell a variety of things.

Just as Yu Nan came out of a women's clothing store empty-handed, she suddenly took a step back vigilantly, quickly raised her knife to block, and saw something flying past her.It was as big as a dog and as sensitive as a cat. Before she could figure out what it was, the next attack followed.

The "dang" knife sank, and the short pause allowed her to see clearly what was being attacked. It turned out to be a zombie baby with a big head about one year old. Yu Nan couldn't help but be surprised when she saw too many zombies.The opportunity was fleeting, and it was too late for her to escape. The black nails were only a few centimeters away from her face, and the mystery in the zombie baby's eyes was clearly visible. A sinister smile appeared on its face.

Once caught by it, it must not be as simple as disfiguring.In just a few tenths of a second, Yu Nan's mind went blank, as if all the voices had gone away from her, her whole head swelled up violently, as if something was about to gush out.She subconsciously wanted to use something to block the zombie baby's attack, and suddenly found a layer of green mist forming in front of her eyes...

"Shua..." A white light flashed, breaking the mist from the middle, and something spilled onto her face.It was dark before her eyes, and her body fell backwards uncontrollably. At this moment, it seemed that the senses of her body had returned to the original position again. She was pulled into her arms and hugged her tightly. Her bones were broken. "Xiao Nan...it's okay, it's okay..." Zhan Xuyang's trembling voice reached his ears.

Yu Nan blinked slowly, "Xuyang..." The joy of the rest of her life instantly filled her body, and she couldn't help but her eyes turned red. "I thought I was going to die..."

"No, it's okay, I said I would protect you!" Trembling, Zhan Xuyang lowered his head to find her lips, and kissed them hard, as if to vent his panic, and as if to make sure that she was really safe and sound.

Yu Nan indulged his behavior, wrapped his arms around his waist with the same strength, his eyes were slightly closed, trembling constantly, and he couldn't stop the fear in his heart.

I don't know how long it took, but when they heard Wang Lechen's voice, the two of them came back to their senses suddenly.

"What are you two doing? Are you all right?"

Zhan Xuyang stood up and reached out to pull Yu Nan up from the ground, "Xiao Nan met a mutant zombie." He said to Wang Lechen and Hao Jun who approached.

Yu Nan followed his words and looked at the corpse on the ground.

It is said that level [-] zombies can control a small number of low-level zombies, and their appearance will also change. They are very fast and have supernatural powers.Judging from the first two points alone, this zombie baby should not meet such standards, and still belongs to the category of third-level zombies. The fast speed may be due to the variation in speed.

Seeing the zombie's big head, Yu Nan suddenly thought of the so-called crystal nucleus in many zombie novels. With a twitch of his brain, he lifted the knife and stabbed it hard from the top of its head.Regardless of the stunned expressions of the other people, she knocked open a gap vigorously, and the knife tip stirred in it again and again, a pile of black paste flowed all over the floor with a pungent stench, and she didn't see anything. crystal nucleus.

"Xiao Nan?"

Yu Nan came back to her senses, only to realize how abrupt the action just now was, and couldn't help laughing dryly, "I read novels and said that there will be crystal nuclei in the brains of zombies, so I wanted to look for it to see if it was true. Yes. As a result, hehe..."

"What kind of messy novels are you reading?" Zhan Xuyang smiled and pinched the tip of her nose, took the dirty knife, chopped off a finger of a zombie baby, and put it in a woven bag inside.He found a wet tissue from her backpack, wiped her face, wiped the knife on the curtain of the store, and handed it to Yu Nan.

"What is a crystal nucleus?" Hao Jun and Wang Lechen followed them out.

"It's a very beautiful crystal. There are different opinions, but it can be used to generate and enhance supernatural powers, and it can also be used as a new energy source." Yu Nan said briefly.I don't know if it's because it's in the novel world itself, but there are no end-time novels in this space.

"Huh? If only there was such a thing, maybe I can also get the ability."

"Don't dream, it's not dark yet."

"What are you talking about? Why is your imagination so lacking?"

"you……"

The bickering of the two people behind them made Yu Nan and Zhan Xuyang, who suddenly relaxed their nerves, couldn't help laughing. Zhan Xuyang clenched her hand, and the voice was loud enough for the two people behind him to hear, "There are level three zombies on this street. Appearing, it’s not something that one person can deal with, and the next four people will act together. Slow down a little bit, safety is the most important thing.” After finishing speaking, he took out his mobile phone and told Cheng Yongzhi about the situation here , let him inform others to be careful.

When the four of them moved together, their speed was much slower. Zhan Xuyang simply handed the woven bag to Yu Nan, and he and the other two rushed up to chop the zombies.

Yu Nan was dragging the bag with her left hand and the knife with her right hand. Occasionally, a zombie that slipped through the net would rush to her, but she would take care of it in a few clicks, making the two people who thought she didn't have much fighting power give a thumbs up.

Fortunately, all the zombies encountered in the back were second-level zombies. Although the speed was slow, they were still moving forward slowly.Picking up fingers all morning, straightening up and bending down non-stop, Yu Nan's waist was almost tired.

"Can you take a break? I'm almost exhausted." Hao Jun held on to the scabbard, gasping for breath.

"Xiao Hao, your physical fitness is too poor, you should exercise more when you go back." In fact, Wang Lechen's condition is not much better than Hao Jun's, and his hands and feet are also weak.

Yu Nan looked at the time, and simply stood still and refused to leave. Zhan Xuyang has been more indulgent to her since he finished talking, and shook his head helplessly, so he had to agree to stop at a nearby restaurant.

After distributing the rations that she brought before going out in the morning, she sat on the stool and gnawed on the compressed biscuits in distaste. She hadn't eaten this kind of thing for a long time, and she didn't even like glutinous rice balls.Thinking of glutinous rice balls, her mood immediately became much depressed.

"What's wrong?" Zhan Xuyang was sensitive to her question.

Yu Nan shook her head, "I just think of glutinous rice balls." Zhan Xuyang sighed and patted her on the shoulder.

When Tangyuan first disappeared, they all thought that it would come back by itself after going out to play for a few days.But it has been a month now, and even though they didn't say anything, several members of the family have tacitly accepted the answer that "the glutinous rice balls may have died somewhere they don't know".Occasionally, Yu Nan would also fantasize about whether Tangyuan would suddenly appear in her bedroom one morning, scratching her awake like before.

"Tangyuan? It's hard to digest if you eat too much, but it will probably be difficult to eat in the future." Hao Jun drank his saliva and continued to eat biscuits.

Yu Nan turned her head and looked at him, "No, Tangyuan is a dog I used to raise, and it ran away last month."

"Uh... dogs can recognize their way, and they can usually run back by themselves."

Yu Nan hooked the corner of her mouth reluctantly, "Thank you."

It was compressed biscuits and water, and the hunger was quickly dispelled. Feeling the bulging stomach, she sighed, and pulled out a bag of dried cherry tomatoes from her backpack, "Come, add nutrition."

"...Aren't you full?" Zhan Xuyang.

"Are you Tinker Bell?" Hao Jun opened his eyes wide.

"..." Wang Lechen with straight eyes.

Yu Nan gritted her teeth, grabbed a big handful for each of them, divided some into her pockets, and stuffed the rest back into her backpack, "Don't be polite to me, just treat it as a relief for me. Otherwise, it would be quite heavy to carry.”

"..."

After enough rest, several people continued their previous work.Facing zombies emerging from shops and alleys from time to time, he swung his knife again and again.

"Even if it's chopping watermelons, you'd be exhausted after a whole day of chopping, not to mention chopping on the bones." Yu Nan stretched his two arms that were so tired that he could hardly lift them up, and looked at Zhan Xuyang, who looked like a normal person, with a smile on his face. A look of envy and jealousy.

"It's not that I'm not tired, it's just that you didn't see it." Zhan Xuyang turned around and looked at her after killing the last zombie in this wave.Wang Lechen and Hao Jun sat on the ground without any image, the clothes on their bodies looked like they had just been fished out of the water.

Yu Nan took out the water bottle from the outer pocket of her backpack and drank the last sip.Looking at the others, they bought four bottles of water from the system mall under the cover of their backpacks.After thinking about it, I only took out two bottles and handed them out, "Here, let's drink some water."

"No, no, we're not thirsty..." Wang Lechen quickly waved his hand to refuse.Previously, one bottle of water per person was a rationed allocation in the team. After drinking it, if you were thirsty, you had to figure out a way for yourself. Obviously, the two bottles of water she took out originally belonged to Nan and the others.It is normal for Wang Lechen to refuse.

It has to be said that the gap between the rich and the poor will exist at any time. Yu Nan and the others lamented that life is not as convenient as before. In fact, many people even have food and clothing as a problem.

Hao Jun subconsciously licked the chapped corners of his lips, and tried to turn his head away.

Seeing this, Zhan Xuyang reached out to take the water bottle and stuffed it directly into their hands. "Take it, you're sweating on such a hot day, and you're prone to dehydration. Xiao Nan, did you bring any salt?"

Yu Nan glared at him when no one was paying attention. He was afraid that others would be suspicious, so he only brought out 2 bottles of water, but he was so generous. "I have brought salt and sugar. Do you want sugar?" In the wild, salt and sugar are essential substances. Since the first time they left the base for missions, they have become indispensable in her backpack. thing.

"Yes." Zhan Xuyang blinked at her reassuringly.

"Gudong..." There was a voice of swallowing saliva.

Yu Nan sighed silently, took out the salt and sugar in the ziplock bag and handed them over, and then added a bottle of water to Zhan Xuyang.
