Chapter Seven I'm the Protagonist

Zhang Ning looked at himself in the mirror as if he were looking at a monster. His scarlet eyes, the black blood vessels on his face were winding and bulging, and his neck was covered with dark scales. He looked like a terrifying ghost from hell in the world.



"What, what's wrong with me?" Zhang Ning held his head in fear and shouted. Suddenly, scattered footsteps were heard in the originally quiet corridor.

"Pap, tap, tap, tap..." The footsteps came closer and closer. Zhang Ning heard the footsteps and ran out of the toilet quickly.

"I'm here..." He shouted halfway before he was swallowed back in his stomach. What appeared in front of Zhang Ning was not a normal human being, but one with gray eyes, a half-open mouth, and covered in blood.

of zombies.

There were four of these zombies in total, one each tall, short, fat and thin, dragging their feet and moving forward little by little. The zombies were wearing security uniforms and looked like they were security personnel in the funeral parlor.

They didn't seem to sense Zhang Ning's presence, and just walked forward dully. Zhang Ning obviously noticed this, and stood still in place, not daring to make a sound. He saw zombies passing by him one after another.

However, the strong smell of blood from the zombies did not make him feel uncomfortable. On the contrary, he found it quite pleasant.

"Roar!" A roar like a lion's roar came from outside. Zhang Ning was startled and reflexively looked for the source of the roar. The five zombies who passed by him also trembled and turned around to face the roar.

The source moved slowly, as if something was calling them.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Ning hurriedly followed behind the four security brothers. Anyway, he was confused now and these four zombies wouldn't hurt him, so he might as well follow them and see what happened.

"Being bitten, dying, waking up, strange things growing on the body..." Zhang Ning thought in his mind as he followed the four security brothers. He had already recovered from the initial panic. As an avid movie enthusiast,

He was also familiar with common plots in movies such as zombie outbreaks and the end of the world. Based on the current situation, Zhang Ning quickly concluded that he had been infected.

"But why do I still have memories of my life and can still control my body freely..." Although his whole body hurt, Zhang Ning was sure that his current state was definitely not the mindless bloodthirsty one in the movie.

, a zombie who wants to eat other people’s brains, but he can still think!

"I won't be the protagonist!" Zhang Ning, who was in the second grade, suddenly had such a guess in his mind. No wonder he thought so. The current scene looked like a scene from the zombie crisis in the apocalypse, and he himself did

He is indeed infected with the virus, but he still maintains 100% self-awareness. In ordinary novels, such a setting is the setting of the protagonist!

Looking at the four slow-moving security brothers in front of him, Zhang Ning tried to speed up his pace and aimed a kick at the butt of one of the fat zombies. Although this violent movement caused pain all over his body, he also kicked hard with his right foot.

On the fat zombie's big ass.

The fat zombie was kicked to the ground, struggling to get up, roaring slightly, looking like an imbecile who had no idea why he was lying on the ground.

"It seems that the four security brothers are just normal weakling zombies..." Zhang Ning muttered in his heart, becoming more convinced that his situation was special. However, the pain all over his body caused by strenuous exercise still made him grimace and he was unable to do any other violent actions.

He followed the zombie silently and walked forward slowly.

Following the four security brothers out of the gate of the funeral home, Zhang Ning found that the streets that used to be bustling with traffic were now deserted. There were only a few crashed cars crookedly crowded on the side of the road, and the street lights were also broken.

An exposed wire was sparking, and a desolate apocalyptic scene came into view. But Zhang Ning had no intention of sighing, because in the middle of the intersection, he saw a shirtless bald man, facing

A piercing gaze was cast in his direction.

This big man was 2.5 meters tall, with a pair of red blood pupils and a body of knotted muscles, which made people feel like a mighty warrior from ancient times. I saw the big man inhaling fiercely, and roaring to the sky again,

The sound was like a lion's roar, rumbling. After hearing the roar, the four security brothers stopped their progress, raised their heads and sniffed forward, and subconsciously took two steps back, showing fear.

"Why are you shouting so loudly? I am the protagonist..." Zhang Ning cursed secretly in his heart.

The big man narrowed his red eyes, as if he was looking for something. Suddenly, the big man seemed to have discovered something, and rushed towards the direction of the four security brothers and Zhang Ning. Zhang Ning quickly dodged when he saw this, but his whole body ached.

, the dodge action was not completed, and he was caught by the big man with one hand.

The big man held Zhang Ning's head with one hand and lifted him up from the ground. The whole process was as easy as lifting a chicken. His scarlet eyes were filled with the greed of a hunter when he is looking for prey. But when he saw

After cleaning the black scales on Zhang Ning's neck, he seemed to be very disappointed and threw Zhang Ning away without giving it another look.

"Holy shit!" Zhang Ning cursed in the air.

The big man just threw Zhang Ning into the trash can on the roadside. The severe pain in his body made Zhang Ning's eyes darken and he fainted.

"Xiao Ran, would you like your parents to take you to the amusement park?"

"Yeah, Xiaoran likes mom and dad the most! Long live mom and dad!"

Xiao Ran is like a happy little pony, cheering and cheering around her parents.

"But you need to review today's homework. Only after you review it will Dad agree to take you to the amusement park." Mom touched Xiao Ran's head lovingly and looked up at her father who was pretending to be serious next to her.

"Ahem," the usually busy father patiently cooperated with his mother's performance. He straightened his back and knelt down to ask questions.

"What did Xiaoran learn in school today?"

"Today we had a lesson on "Nu Wa Created Man". The teacher said that in mythology, we humans were kneaded out of yellow clay by the goddess of creation, Nu Wa!" Xiao Ran answered seriously, fearing that she would miss something.

A little detail.

"The teacher also asked us to recite a short paragraph that we like!" Xiao Ran rushed to add as if asking for credit.

"Oh? So which section does our Xiaoran memorize?" Dad looked curious.

"What I am reciting is how Nuwa felt when she created a human queen for the first time." Xiaoran closed her eyes and began to recite: "Nuwa was very satisfied with his work. So she continued to do her work.

She made many cute little people out of yellow clay that could talk and walk. These little people jumped and cheered around her, which made her mentally happy and comforted indescribably. From then on, she never felt lonely again.

, lonely.”

Xiao Ran finished reciting her favorite passage while shaking her head, waiting for her parents' praise. Unexpectedly, when she opened her eyes, she found that her loving parents' faces were now covered in blood, and black mucus slowly flowed out of their eyes, mouth, and nose.

The mouth was slightly open, the teeth became sharp, and the appearance was terrifying.

"From now on, Xiaoran will no longer feel lonely." The ferocious-looking parents murmured these words, then opened their mouths and rushed toward Xiaoran!

"Ah!" With a scream, Xiao Ran woke up from his dream, only to find that his hands and feet were tied to the bed, unable to make much movement. Looking up, he found Lu Yu standing at the door watching him.

.

Seeing Xiao Ran wake up, Lu Yu hid the kitchen knife behind his back. "Do you still know me?"

"You might as well ask me more directly if I have turned into a monster." Xiao Ran responded lightly, the childishness in his tone had faded away, and instead it was more teasing.

Lu Yu was startled. Xiaoran's words were definitely beyond his expectation. For a moment, he even felt that he was not talking to a 9-year-old girl, but was handing over work tasks to his colleagues.

But since Xiaoran can answer her own questions, it means that she still has self-awareness, which should be considered a good thing.

Lu Yu felt a little calmer after mentioning it. He took three steps at a time and came to Xiao Ran's bed. He reached out and wanted to touch Xiao Ran's forehead to see if he still had a fever. Unexpectedly, Xiao Ran tilted his head.

"Your protective measures are very good, but you don't think things through. Aren't you worried that if you come into contact with me, you will turn into a monster like me?"

The voice is still full of childishness, but the content is down to the point of pragmatism.

Lu Yu's hand stopped in the air and slowly retracted it.

He felt that what the little girl in front of him said made sense.

"You've been in a coma for two days and two nights," Lu Yu scratched his head awkwardly, "I even thought you were going to turn into a zombie."

"It should be because I took this medicine that I didn't turn into the zombie you said." Xiao Ran glanced at the aspirin beside the bed. She knew the words on the medicine bottle, but she didn't understand what it meant. After all,

Her knowledge reserve is only at the level of a primary school student.

Comparing her memories before coma, Xiaoran found that many confusions appeared inexplicably in her mind. What she thought was normal behavior now seemed so childish and ridiculous to her.

"Do you have any books at home? I want to read them." Xiao Ran seemed to be saying to herself, but also to Lu Yu. She wanted to unravel the fog in her mind and unravel the fog that she would not pay attention to originally.

The only way to unravel the fog is to read and gain more knowledge to unravel the fog in your mind.

"Book?" Lu Yu looked like a monk who was two feet tall and confused, "What do you want to read?"

"To pass the time." Xiao Ran responded perfunctorily. She felt that great changes had taken place in her body, but she did not understand the reasons for the changes, which made her very irritable.

"Okay." Lu Yu put the kitchen knife in his hand on Xiaoran's bedside table, turned and walked towards the study.

When Lu Yu came back, he had several fairy tale books, a glass of water, some chocolates and several packs of compressed biscuits in his hand.

Looking at the water glass in Lu Yu's hand, Xiao Ran felt that his throat was burning like a fire. He quickly took the water glass and drank it, then tore open a piece of chocolate and swallowed it whole.

"I want to read some other books, not fairy tales." Xiao Ran tore open a piece of chocolate again, threw it into her mouth and chewed it. The sweetness of the chocolate made her mental state gradually recover. Although Lu Yu said that she had been unconscious for two years.

For two days and two nights, I felt no other uncomfortable feelings except being very thirsty and hungry.

Lu Yu fetched a few more literature books for junior high school students and handed them to Xiao Ran who was sitting on the bed.

Xiaoran took the book, flipped through it casually a few times, sighed like an adult, threw it aside, and began to untie the rope on his body.

After a while, the rope was untied, but Xiaoran did not throw the rope aside. Instead, he came to the study and tied the rope to the table legs in the study. The other end of the rope tied himself tightly.

ankle.

"I'm just going to stay and read. If you have nothing to do, don't disturb me."

After saying that, he took out a thick book from the bookshelf, sat down cross-legged, and read it with relish.

"So I wanted to read the encyclopedia." Lu Yu muttered in his heart, "You are a primary school student, you know all the words on it..."
