The full moon was in the sky, and the bright moonlight illuminated the courtyard as if it were daytime.
Zhang Zhe was sitting at a computer table in the room, quietly reading a supernatural novel in his hand by the candlelight on the table.
In this post-apocalyptic world that lacks entertainment and is boring, reading has become Zhang Zhe's greatest spiritual comfort.
In the past five years, he has read a lot of books of various types. Even before the end of the world, he disliked reading all kinds of literary books and felt like chewing wax. He also read a lot of them.
"Alibaba came to the door of the stone cave and shouted loudly to the door of the stone cave..."
From time to time, Moshe's voice could be heard telling her daughter a bedtime story from the next room. Listening to the content, it seemed that what she was telling tonight was the story of Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves in "One Thousand and One Nights."
Whenever he heard Mo Xi's voice telling his daughter a bedtime story in a mellow and vivid voice next door, Zhang Zhe, who was reading in the room, would think of the time when Zheng Yiran, that little lunatic, told their daughter Kawaii about The Three Little Pigs.
scene.
Oh, I really admired that little lunatic. How could he have such a big brain?
It's obviously a story about three little pigs building a house, but it's hard to make that guy tell it into a passionate story about collecting dragon balls to summon a dragon. The most awesome thing is that it can be divided into several episodes, and they can be linked up and down.
Not long after, Moxie's voice telling a bedtime story in the next room stopped abruptly. It must have been his precious daughter who had fallen asleep in the fairy tale, right?
Just when Zhang Zhe put away his thoughts about Zheng Yiran and continued to concentrate on reading the supernatural novel in his hand, the bedroom door on one side was gently pushed open from the outside.
As the door opened from the outside, Moxi, wearing a black tulle nightgown with long black hair, entered the room softly.
When Moxi quietly closed the door, he only looked at Zhang Zhe who was holding the novel in his hand, and asked softly without raising his head.
"Is Yuxuan sleeping? Why aren't you sleeping yet?"
In response to Zhang Zhe's question, Mo Xi did not open his mouth to answer.
After arriving close to Zhang Zhe, Mo Xi hugged Zhang Zhe from behind.
After reaching out to grab the supernatural novel from Zhang Zhe's hand and placing it gently on the computer table in front of him, Mo Xi, who was lying on Zhang Zhe's back, leaned into Zhang Zhe's right ear and spoke quietly.
said.
"Yuxuan told me when she was taking a bath tonight that she wanted a younger brother or sister to play with her. I think Yuxuan feels too lonely!"
"How about the two of us just satisfy the child's wish?"
"Here, there are just the three of us, and she doesn't even have a companion. She is indeed a little lonely. What do you think?"
Before Zhang Zhe could reply, Mo Xi came close to Zhang Zhe's ear, opened his mouth and gently bit Zhang Zhe's right earlobe.
The air was filled with the intoxicating scent of Moxi's body from behind.
At this time, Zhang Zhe, who had Mo Xi taking his right earlobe into his mouth, remained unmoved. He looked at the candlelight on the computer table in front of him and whispered in a calm tone.
"How about I go to the toy store in the city tomorrow and find some toys for Yuxuan?"
"There are wild dogs in the woods on the east side of the town. I saw a few puppies near there last time. How about I catch a few and let Yuxuan raise them?"
"Either, or I'll catch a few deer for her..."
Before Zhang Zhe finished speaking, Mo Xi, who had already heard the meaning of Zhang Zhe's words, immediately let go of Zhang Zhe in his arms.
After turning around and sitting on the bed beside him, Mo Xi looked at Zhang Zhe sitting in front of him and asked softly with a hint of bitterness on his face.
"It's been five years, are you still thinking about Yiran?"
"I know you love Yiran, but you and I, and our daughter Yuxuan, are destined to never see Yiran and the others again!"
"Maybe Yiran, Kawaii and the others don't care about our current status. But what about the others? In the eyes of others, we are half-zombie people, aliens who need to be eradicated. Do you understand all this?"
After saying these words, Mo Xi looked at Zhang Zhe who had no expression on his face, and spoke in a slightly humble tone.
"I admit that I have no love for you until now. But I have made it clear to you that although I don't love you, I am yours."
"In this end of the world, maybe the two of us will live together forever. I don't ask you to do anything for me. I just hope that you can accompany me to raise our children together."
"In the past five years, you haven't even touched me. But tonight, Yuxuan wants a younger sister or younger brother to play with her. I hope you can cooperate with me to realize Yuxuan's wish."
As soon as Moxi finished speaking, there was a sound of forcefully opening the door from the next room.
Then there was the sound of feet running quickly on the living room floor outside the door.
Zhang Zhe, who was deeply in love with his daughter, had just stood up from his seat when the door on one side was pushed open forcefully.
Zhang Yuxuan, who was barefoot, wearing a pink nightgown, with long black hair, and a frightened expression, entered the room and immediately threw himself into the arms of Mo Xi who was sitting on the bed. Then he hugged Mo Xi tightly,
In Mo Xi's arms, he said to Mo Xi and Zhang Zhe in horror.
"Dad, Mom, there is something in the yard, there is something in the yard. I can't see it in front of the window, but I can feel that there is really something in the yard."
"Dad, Mom, I'm scared, I'm afraid they'll burst into the room and eat me."
Looking at the frightened expression of his daughter in Mo Xi's arms, Zhang Zhe reached out and grabbed the samurai sword placed aside, then smiled and said to Zhang Yuxuan in Mo Xi's arms.
"Don't be afraid, Yuxuan. Dad is going to go out and drive away all the bad things that scare Yuxuan!"
As soon as Zhang Zhe's words came out, Zhang Yuxuan, who was in Mo Xi's arms, quickly ran to Zhang Zhe, hugged Zhang Zhe's thigh, looked up at Zhang Zhe, and said sensibly.
"I don't want dad to go out. It's dangerous in the yard."
"I want my parents to sleep with me tonight. As long as my parents are by my side, I won't be afraid of anything."
Just when Zhang Zhe was about to say something to his precious daughter, Mo Xi, who was sitting on the bed beside him, immediately stood up and looked at Zhang Zhe and said with a smile.
"If Yuxuan feels right, I think it should be the kind of invisible mutated mantis we saw in the woods today that entered our yard."
"You stay with your daughter in the room first, and I'll go out and take a look!"
With that said, Moxi was about to walk out of the room.
But before Mo Xi took a few steps, his daughter Zhang Yuxuan, who was holding Zhang Zhe's thigh, immediately spoke to Mo Xi with a tearful voice.
"Mom, don't go out, Yuxuan doesn't want to..."
Before Zhang Yuxuan, who was crying, could finish speaking, Mo Xi turned to his daughter Zhang Yuxuan, pretending to be worried.
"Baby, we are safe in the house. But those little goats of yours are still in the sheepfold in the yard!"
"Aren't you worried about the safety of those little goats, Yuxuan? What if those bad things in the yard hurt your little goats?"
"Mom is going to protect your little goats for Yuxuan!"
After saying this, Moxi immediately walked out of the room.
Zhang Zhe is not worried at all about Mo Xi's ability. From a certain perspective, Mo Xi's ability is far superior to him.
To be more realistic, if it were not for his daughter to have a father to accompany him, he would be a complete drag to Moxi.
As soon as Mo Xi walked out of the room, her daughter Zhang Yuxuan, who was holding Zhang Zhe's thigh, raised her little face and looked up at Zhang Zhe, asking worriedly.
"Dad, mom won't be in danger, right?"
Looking at his daughter's very worried expression, Zhang Zhe reached out and gently pinched Zhang Yuxuan's chubby little cheeks, and said softly.
"Don't worry, baby, your mother is very powerful!"
"Come, daddy will coax you to go back to sleep. When you wake up tomorrow, daddy and mommy will be sleeping next to you."
With that said, Zhang Zhe reached out and carried his daughter Zhang Yuxuan to the bed on one side.
While covering his daughter with a summer quilt, Zhang Zhe softly told the story of the little carp to his daughter lying on the bed.
Yuxuan had just fallen asleep on the bed when Moxi called softly from outside the room door.
"Hey, come out."
Zhang Zhe, who heard Mo Xi's call, just walked out of the room quietly, and saw Mo Xi standing outside the door, with black blood flowing out of his chest.
The thick and sticky black blood had already stuck to Moxi's black gauze nightgown. Moxi, who already had a perfect figure, looked even more seductive at this time.
Before Zhang Zhe could ask about the situation, Mo Xi raised his hand to wipe the black blood on the corner of his mouth and spoke calmly.
"Hey, have you seen enough? Don't tell me that you have thoughts about me now?"
"Come and do me a favor, help me pull out that damn thing from behind."
"It penetrated my chest from behind, and I pushed it into my chest from the front. But I couldn't reach the position behind it with my hands, so you helped me pull it out."
After saying that, Moxi immediately turned around and exposed the mantis' forelimbs in the shape of a scythe inserted into his back in front of Zhang Zhe.
When he was in the poplar forest, Zhang Zhe once looked at the forelimbs of the big mantis that cut off his own head. The two sickle-shaped forelimbs were as hard as steel and as sharp as blades.
As Zhang Zhe stretched out his hand to pull out the mantis' forelimb that was pierced into Moxi's chest, a stream of black blood immediately shot out from the wound on Moxi's back, splashing Zhang Zhe's face.
When Mo Xi turned around and saw the black blood on Zhang Zhe's face, he reached out to wipe the blood on Zhang Zhe's face and spoke slowly to Zhang Zhe in front of him.
"Hey, let's move with our daughter? I think this mutated mantis is too dangerous for our daughter."
"I just met five of them in the yard, and I killed them in their invisible state through the smell they emitted!"
"But in the sheepfold, there was one that used the bloody smell of the goat carcasses to block its own smell. When I went to investigate the situation in the sheepfold, I was attacked by it."
"Although our key point is the head, which cannot die so easily. But unless it is absolutely necessary, I don't want our daughter to learn to eat zombies. I want her to..."
Before Mo Xi finished speaking, Zhang Zhe looked at Mo Xi in front of him and said with a smile.
"I understand. I also want our daughter to live like a normal human child. If possible, I also hope that she will never know that she is different."
"You decide to move, but it's best to move quickly. In one and a half months, the zombies will move south."
"If you encounter zombies migrating south during the move, the zombie king in the zombie wave will be very dangerous to you and your children."
After hearing Zhang Zhe's words, Mo Xi turned around and walked towards the next room and said calmly.
"Ok, I know."
"You go stay with your daughter first, and I'll change clothes."
