Not long after driving off the bridge, Zhang Zhe, who was sitting next to Xiao Fu, asked Xiao Fu curiously.
"Xiao Fu, they just beat you to the point where your mouth is bleeding. Didn't you ever think about going violent and resisting and killing them?"
Xiao Fu, who drove the carriage quickly away from the bridge, while controlling the carriage, said to Zhang Zhe beside her as if she was used to it.
"No, I never thought of it that way."
"I don't dare to run away, I just want to live."
After saying this, Xiaofu smiled and said to Zhang Zhe beside her.
"Actually, it's nothing. After they beat me up, they would let me go!"
"At the very least, it's better to be beaten by them than to be robbed of the food I hid in the mezzanine of the carriage."
"Brother Zhe, are you hungry? I'll get you food right now!"
After saying that, Xiao Fu turned around and reached out to Zhang Zhe to get the food she had hidden in the mezzanine of the carriage.
Zhang Zhe, who saw Xiao Fu's move, reached into his pocket and took out the two packs of compressed biscuits he had just taken out from the corpse's pocket, then returned the two packs of compressed biscuits to Xiao Fu and said with a smile.
"Silly girl, come on, I'll give you back these two packs of biscuits!"
"From now on, you call me Brother Zhe, and I will protect you in this apocalyptic world!"
After hearing what Zhang Zhe said, Xiaofu asked, holding the two compressed biscuits that Zhang Zhe had returned to her, as if she didn't understand.
"Brother Zhe, are you covering me? How?"
Just when Zhang Zhe, who was looking at the innocent Xiao Fu with a helpless smile on his face, didn't know what to explain, Mo Xi, who was sitting behind with his daughter in his arms, immediately smiled and said to Xiao Fu.
"Xiao Fu, you have made a profit this time."
"My husband is very powerful! As long as he protects you from now on, no one will dare to bully you in this apocalyptic world."
As soon as Mo Xi finished speaking, his daughter Zhang Yuxuan, who was being held in Mo Xi's arms, immediately reminded Zhang Zhe, who was sitting in front, with a small face and a cold reminder.
"Dad, it seems that you still need something, haven't you returned it to Aunt Xiaofu?"
"You are an adult and you must keep your word! Have you forgotten what you promised me?"
Zhang Zhe, whose daughter discovered his little thoughts, immediately reached out from his pocket again and took out a pack of cigarettes that he had just dug out from the two corpses. While returning the cigarettes to Xiao Fu, he turned to Mo Xi behind him.
The little-faced daughter Zhang Yuxuan in her arms said with a wry smile.
"Hehe...thank you, honey, for reminding daddy, otherwise daddy would have really forgotten to return this thing to your Aunt Xiaofu."
Zhang Yuxuan, who had a small face, rolled his eyes at Zhang Zhe in Mo Xi's arms, and then said coldly.
"Dad, don't do this again!"
As night falls, the full moon is in the sky, and the blue sky is dotted with stars.
Fireflies emitting light blue light danced in the night.
Under the illumination of a bonfire on the road, the black horses unloaded the carriage and ate wild grass leisurely on the grass on the side of the road.
Beside the campfire, Zhang Yuxuan, who had had dinner early, had fallen asleep quietly in the arms of his mother Mo Xi.
Moxi, who was holding her daughter in her arms, was sitting on a blanket, chatting quietly with Xiaofu who was sitting next to her.
To be honest, Zhang Zhe, who was sitting opposite the two of them and looking at the supernatural novel in his hand by the firelight, did not want to spend the night in such a wilderness!
But that silly girl Xiaofu insisted that spending the night in the wilderness was the safest option.
The reasons given by the girl are also very simple. First, they are all half-zombie people, so they don't have to worry about zombies attacking them. Second, those "zombie killers" are afraid of fire. As long as there is fire around them, they will not care.
There are so many large mutated mantises out there, but they don't dare to approach easily.
I originally thought that Moxi, who loved her daughter, would object to Xiaofu's theory. But in the end, Moxi supported Xiaofu's theory.
This made Zhang Zhe, who was worried about Xiaofu's theory, could only express his silent protest against camping in the wild by keeping a certain distance from Moxi and Xiaofu.
In fact, at this time, Zhang Zhe's mind was not at all on the thrilling and terrifying content of the novel in his hand. All his attention was focused on quietly listening to the strange noises coming from all around.
Those mutated mantises that were silent and could camouflage and change color according to the surrounding environment were really scary. He didn't want to have his head chopped off by those scary guys again on this night when he was going to spend the night in the wild.
The surroundings are very quiet, except for the cool breeze in summer evenings, rustling the wild grass. There are only the chirping of insects hiding in the grass, playing summer music.
In the distant dark night, several roars belonging to zombies would be heard from time to time. But those guys did not approach the place where the firelight was dancing.
Heh, I guess they don't have the guts to approach here.
Just as Zhang Zhe was listening carefully to the sounds around him, Xiao Fu's voice suddenly came from beside him.
"Brother Zhe, don't worry. When we are delivering supplies to other outposts and bases, we often spend the night in the wild like this. It's really going to be okay!"
"But to be honest, if you sit here like this, something will most likely happen!"
"Believe me, if you don't lie down on the ground, those "zombie killers" will really appear behind you and chop off your head!"
Xiaofu who suddenly appeared next to Zhang Zhe and said these words really startled Zhang Zhe who was listening carefully to the voice.
After coming to his senses, Zhang Zhe discovered that Xiao Fu had actually woken up next to him. Mo Xi, who had been chatting with Xiao Fu across the street, had already fallen asleep on the blanket with his daughter in his arms.
He looked up at Zhang Zhe, who was looking at him with a somewhat panicked expression, and Xiao Fu, whose eyes were filled with the bonfire beside him, and said very seriously.
"Brother Zhe, I won't lie to you. Just lie on the ground and rest peacefully. Nothing will happen to you!"
"Those soldiers from Martial God City told us when they were resting in our inn! The "zombie killers" have poor eyesight, and they can only attack moving bipedal creatures."
"As long as we lie on the ground, even if the bonfire goes out, even if they pass by us, they will never attack us!"
"The soldiers in Wushen City often stay in the wild when there is no inn to stay. They say that actually staying in the wild is far safer than staying in a strange room!"
After hearing these words from Xiao Fu next to him, Zhang Zhe looked at Xiao Fu lying next to him and asked with some confusion.
"Where is that place called Martial God City? Why haven't I heard of it?"
"In addition, if their soldiers stay in the wild, aren't they afraid of being attacked by zombies?"
Xiaofu, who heard Zhang Zhe's question, shook her little head, then thought about it and pouted her mouth.
"Where is the Martial God City? I don't know either!"
"But they don't use guns. Each of them has a war horse. They are all wearing very handsome and stylish armor. They are carrying bows and sabers on their waists!"
"They don't seem to be afraid of zombies. Instead, they like to hunt zombies. There are always many zombie heads hanging on their horses. I heard from them that the zombie heads can be returned to them to collect rewards."
When he said this, Xiao Fu, who was lying next to Zhang Zhe, continued to speak to Zhang Zhe as if she suddenly thought of something.
"Oh, that's right. The smell on them is very special. I smell like the fragrance of various flowers and plants, but it is definitely not the smell of perfume."
"I think that smell should be used by them to cover their body odor to prevent them from being attacked by zombies, right?"
"When people at our post station set out to deliver supplies to other outposts and bases, they will also use horse dung, horse urine, sheep dung, etc. to smear themselves on their bodies."
"Use these pungent smells to prevent yourself from being attacked by zombies while transporting supplies. It's like the smell of horse manure on my body!"
Six years ago, Zhang Zhe, Mo Xi and Zheng Yiran, used the "stink bomb" developed by Qiqi to hide the smell and evade the giant hairy zombie in the secret passage of the nursing home. He already knew what Xiaofu said.
By using other scents to cover your own scent, you can avoid zombie attacks.
Zhang Zhe, who thought he had not obtained any important information from Xiao Fu, took out the half pack of cigarettes he had hidden in the pockets of the two soldiers.
Zhang Zhe, who was forced to quit smoking by his daughter Zhang Yuxuan because he was watching too closely, sat by the campfire and smoked a cigarette greedily. Then he got up and walked to the blanket opposite, lying on the bed held by Mo Xi.
He fell asleep next to his daughter.
In the early hours of the morning, Zhang Zhe, who was sleeping soundly on his blanket, was awakened by a rustling sound coming from the grass, like the sound of some kind of animal dragging something in the grass.
At this time, the bonfire nearby had long been extinguished, and unknowingly, the four people sleeping on the ground around the bonfire were plunged into the night in the wilderness.
Zhang Zhe, who was lying on his side, looked at the rustling grass in front of him under the moonlight. Just as he was about to turn over and tell Mo Xi, who was sleeping behind him with his daughter sleeping in his arms, he suddenly felt a right hand with a faint body fragrance.
, then he reached out from behind and quietly covered Zhang Zhe's mouth.
Zhang Zhe knew that this was Mo Xi's hand. Thinking that Mo Xi, who was sleeping behind his back, was also awakened by the sound in the grass. He stretched out his hand to cover his mouth. It must be that Mo Xi didn't want to make any noise, right?
At this moment, a triangular head the size of a human face suddenly poked out of the grass beside the road that Zhang Zhe was looking at.
The triangular-headed head stuck out, and after observing where Zhang Zhe and the others were for a long time, he slowly walked out of the grass with his entire body, less than one meter long.
The four slender long legs under its belly are on the ground, and the right side of its upward-sloping neck is like a huge sickle-shaped forelimb tucked in front of its chest. The sickle on the left side is stretched out behind it.
As it slowly walked out of the grass, a zombie corpse that had lost its head and was constantly exuding a rotten smell in the air was immediately hooked into the zombie's chest with its left sickle-shaped forelimb.
He was dragged out of the grass behind him.
Zhang Zhe, who saw this scene, knew that Mo Xi, who was covering his mouth behind him, wanted to pretend that he didn't see anything.
But five years ago, when he was still alive, his experience of surviving for two years in the apocalypse told him.
"Other people's experience may be very reliable, but it is far less reliable than the weapon in one's hand. Anyone may betray himself at the last moment, but the weapon in his hand will never!"
With this understanding, when the mutated mantis dragging the zombie corpse slowly moved this way, Zhang Zhe quietly held his right hand tightly on the hilt of the samurai sword in his arms.
superior.
Zhang Zhe thought to himself as he looked at the mutated mantis dragging the zombie corpse and slowly approaching him, holding the handle of the knife in his hand and his eyes shining.
"It's just a mutated mantis. As long as you dare to enter my attack range, I dare to let you and the cargo you drag stay here forever!"
Just as Zhang Zhe, who was intent on killing, quietly watched the mutated mantis dragging the body slowly towards him, a rustling sound was heard in the grass behind the mutated mantis.
Zhang Zhe, who suddenly felt bad, looked at the mutated mantis that had slowly entered his attack range and thought to himself.
"You're so cruel! I really didn't realize it. Why the hell are you here in a group?"
"Okay, I pretended I didn't see you, just go over there!"
Then, Zhang Zhe, who was holding the katana in his arms tightly, quickly closed his eyes.
