As soon as Zhang Zhe closed his eyes, the rustling sound in the grass got closer and closer.
Then, dozens of mutated mantises with triangular heads the size of human faces poked out of the grass at the same time, and each of their heads poked out of the grass.
These mutated mantises that poked their heads out of the grass were not in a hurry to get out of the grass. They just hid their bodies in the grass and quietly watched the mutated mantis that was the first to drag the zombie corpse out of the grass.
The mutant mantis that was the first to drag the zombie corpse out of the grass seemed to be the first vanguard sent by this group of mutant mantises to explore the way.
It used the sickle-shaped forelimb on its left side to drag the zombie body past Zhang Zhe, who was lying on the ground with his eyes closed. After slowly dragging the body into the grass on the opposite side, it passed through the grass.
The dozens of mutated mantises that poked their heads out slowly walked out of the grass in unison.
Just like the original mutated mantis, they all have four slender long legs on the ground under their abdomen, and close the huge sickle-shaped forelimbs on their right sides under their upwardly inclined necks in front of their chests. Each of them has its left side.
The sickle-shaped forelimbs extend behind the body.
As they walked out of the grass in unison, each left sickle-shaped forelimb stretched out behind them dragged out from the grass behind them a zombie corpse without a head and exuding a putrid smell.
Zhang Zhe, who closed his eyes at this time, did not see the scene in front of him.
He just listened quietly through his ears, lying on his side on the ground.
When the first rustling sound in the grass suddenly stopped nearby, Zhang Zhe, with his eyes closed, listened to the sound of the mutated mantis dragging the corpse on the ground, passing by him until
Go away slowly.
When he heard the dragging sound and went away, and was about to open his eyes to check the surrounding situation, he heard a dragging sound from the grass on the side.
With his eyes closed, Zhang Zhe didn't know how many mutated mantises there were. But by listening to the slightly noisy dragging sound, Zhang Zhe felt that this formation was definitely not small.
Then, this noisy tug was slowly passing by him. A noisy tug sounded from the grass on the side.
I don’t know how much time passed, but as the fifth noisy dragging sound passed by and faded away, the road where the four of them were was immediately returned to silence.
At this time, Mo Xi, who was holding her daughter in her arms, took back her hand covering Zhang Zhe's mouth.
As soon as Mo Xi took his hand back, his daughter Zhang Yuxuan spoke to Mo Xi in a childish voice from behind Zhang Zhe.
"Oh my god, it's finally over. I really scared the baby just now."
"Mom, please help me touch my head. It really scared me just now. Although I didn't dare to look, I can feel that there are really many, many big praying mantises."
As Zhang Zhe opened his eyes, Mo Xi's gentle voice to his daughter came from behind.
"It's over, it's over. Don't be afraid, my baby Yuxuan. Come, mommy will touch your little head."
"Touch your head, you're not scared. Is my baby scared?"
It was already early in the morning, and on the grass beside him, the black horse pulling the cart was quietly and leisurely gnawing on the dew-laden weeds on the ground.
Zhang Zhe, who had just opened his eyes and sat up on the blanket, was about to turn around to comfort his daughter, who claimed to be scared. Xiao Fu, who was sleeping not far from the bonfire, walked quickly past him and said to her.
The three of them spoke.
"Brother Zhe, Sister Xi, let's get out of here quickly!"
"The formation just now scared me. I have never seen so many "zombie killers". I think there must be their nests near here."
"It's not a good place to stay here for a long time. We have to leave quickly. I remember this shabby place and I won't be able to spend the night here again."
The morning breeze caresses your face, making you feel indescribably comfortable.
The black horse pulled the four people in the car and drove all the way to the northeast.
In the wilderness covered with wild grass on both sides of the road, from time to time there will be a few deer running and playing on the grass like green elves.
By noon, Xiaofu, who was driving a carriage, had already brought Zhang Zhe's family of three into the jurisdiction of Z city.
We also passed several villages along the way. The houses in the villages may have collapsed because no one lived in them, or the roofs were covered with a lot of grass.
Through the collapsed courtyard walls, you can see that the yards of various houses are mostly covered with weeds as tall as a person.
The streets paved with cement roads in the village are dotted with cracks of varying depths and sizes. From time to time, you can see a few wild grasses taking root in the cracks and growing in them.
Occasionally, you will see a few homeless but homely wild dogs running through the streets of these villages. But in these dilapidated villages, not a single zombie is seen wandering around.
Presumably, after smelling the breath of these half-zombie people, these zombies hid obediently in a hidden corner and did not dare to come out, right?
Xiao Fu, who was driving the carriage, did not want to find a cool place because of the scorching sun hanging above her head. She stopped the carriage and let the horse pulling the carriage rest with a few people and have a leisurely lunch with each other.
mean.
Instead, he controlled the black horse pulling the cart and drove slowly and non-stop in the direction of City Z.
Just as the four of them were sitting on the carriage eating the food in their hands and passing under a very cool railway bridge, Zhang Zhe, who was sitting on the carriage, looked at the cement wall under the railway bridge and used charcoal to clear the walls.
Dozens of messages were written on the ground, similar to messages.
The slow-moving carriage did not stop under the railway bridge. Because the railway bridge was not too big, even the slow-moving carriage could be said to have passed under the railway bridge.
But the dozens of words written on the cement wall, and the person who left the message marked under each word, were all seen by Zhang Zhe and firmly remembered in his heart.
The dozens of words on the cement wall are more like a scolding war triggered on this message wall.
The general content is as follows:
"From City A to here, I killed a total of 500 zombies of all kinds. I am here to commemorate it!"
——I don’t know which year it is May 16th, Tianzhu Squadron of City A, the captain of the third team: Qian Ye
"Whether the end of the world is chaotic or not, the Tianzhu team in City A has the final say! Junior sister, Sai Gao!"
"I'm the counterfeit from City L. I'm back again. Get ready to welcome you!"
——On May 25th of the same year, Tianzhu Team of City A, Captain of the Second Team: Li Mo
"Kill five hundred zombies of all kinds along the way? You people in City A are really good at it!"
"Get lost! We are not welcome in City L! Everyone calls them "Team Chu". Why are we, City L, fake?"
——On June 15th of the same year, L City Tianzhu Team, Captain: Ding Yi. Vice Captain: Jiang Tian
"I have been joining the military for two years, and I have always felt that among the entire army under the jurisdiction of City L, the people in City A are the craziest and the most pretentious!"
"I can see the marks you leave on the wall everywhere. Are you a dog? Wherever you go, you like to pee and leave a mark. Do you still have the final say? If you really have the final say, you will kill all the zombies.
Killed to death?"
"I can't stand you the most, you people from City A, you pretentious criminals!"
——On June 23 of the same year, H City White Wolf Squad, Captain: Luoxue
"I have a sword that can kill everything in the world!"
"L City Tianzhu Team, H City Wolf Clan White Wolf Team are optimistic about me. I will stay at the Virus Experiment Center for a month. If any of you are dissatisfied, you can come to me for a fight!"
"Which of you is dissatisfied, I will beat you until you do!"
——On July 1 of the same year, deputy captain of the first team of Tianzhu Squadron in City A: Zhang Zhexi
"Hmph! What's the point of fighting a kid like you?"
"I just want to tell you one thing, remember it. Your mother was beaten by our White Wolf King!"
——On July 15th of the same year, H City White Wolf Team, Captain: Luoxue
"My mother won't let me say bad words, so don't talk nonsense to me! If you have the guts, come to me in City A and see if I can beat you!"
"Also, don't forget that your White Wolf King was also beaten by my mother. Let me greet your White Wolf King and ask her about the scar on her right arm that was cut by my mother. Is it okay?"
——On August 2 of the same year, deputy captain of the first team of Tianzhu Squadron in City A: Zhang Zhexi
"I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you!"
"Little girl, your mother was beaten by our White Wolf King!"
——On August 13th of the same year, H City White Wolf Squad, Captain: Luoxue
"Does it matter whether you are Bai Xuan from City H or Luo Zitong from City L? In the entire apocalypse, anyone who is dissatisfied or challenged can come to City A to fight me!"
"We can provide the coffins you need from Market A!"
——September 1 of the same year, City A: Zheng Yiran
"The general said it's good to live a good life! If she doesn't participate, you just have fun!"
——On September 15th of the same year, Chief of Staff of the L City Military: Qiqi (ghostwriting for the general)
Not long after the carriage drove out of the railway bridge, Zhang Zhe, holding half a piece of dried venison in his hand and thinking about the content on the message wall, showed a smile on his face.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Zizi and Li Mo actually went to the nursing home. They also became the captains of their Tianzhu team, the second team, and the third team respectively.
It seems that the number of people in nursing homes should have increased a lot, right?
Ding Yi and Jiang Tian actually managed to get into the positions of captain and deputy captain of the Tiantian Zhu Team in L City. I guess they must be very important to Luo Zitong in L City, right?
I wonder if that guy Ding Yi, who kills both men and women, will attack his soldiers? I wonder if that guy Jiang Tian's mental condition will improve?
Zhang Zhexi? I have no impression of this name.
But the message stated that she was going to the virus center. The only memory she had was her eldest daughter, Kawaii, who was taken to the virus research center by Chen Xuerou and the others to study.
Come to think of it, the name Zhang Zhexi was probably given to Kawaii by Zheng Yiran, right?
I haven’t seen this little girl in five years. I wonder if I can hold her again? She must have grown a lot, right? Seeing that she marked herself as the vice-captain of the first team of Tianzhu Team, she should be helping Zheng Yiran.
Are you protecting nursing homes?
I really hope that this little girl will never imitate Zheng Yiran's playful and exciting personality.
Judging from the message, Bai Xuan seemed to have had another fight with that little lunatic Zheng Yiran. It seemed that Bai Xuan was stabbed by Zheng Yiran. I wonder if that little lunatic Zheng Yiran was injured?
Judging from the message left by the captain of the wolf clan named Luoxue, the wolf clan joined the military four years ago. She wrote in the message that she had joined the military for two years. I think these messages were all left a year ago.
Content.
She was already twenty-six years old at the time and a mother of three children. How could Zheng Yiran, a little lunatic, still be so aggressive?
She doesn’t look like a mother of three children at all! I really don’t know what she will become now that she is twenty-seven years old? Will her personality change? Will she still like to have fun and seek excitement?
In the past five years, I really don’t know how many interesting things I have missed that happened around her?
And that little girl Qiqi, she is now twenty-one years old, she must have become a big girl, right? I wonder if I can still recognize her when I see her?
Luo Zitong has already reached the position of chief of staff, so he must still be highly valued by Luo Zitong, right?
It is reasonable to stay with Luo Zitong. After all, that girl is very realistic and...
Zhang Zhe's appearance is already handsome, and when he usually doesn't smile, Mo Xi feels that the man in front of her is arrogant and cold. Occasionally, when Zhang Zhe has a bad smile on his face, she feels that this man has such an awe-inspiring personality.
The handsome guy who is intoxicated.
But what she likes the most is the smile on Zhang Zhe's face at this moment. This is the smile from the heart of the man in front of her. It looks like the age shown by his appearance, like a cheerful personality.
A sunny, carefree big boy.
She could only see such a smile when Zhang Zhe was playing with his daughter Yuxuan. In the past five years, Zhang Zhe had never shown such a smile to her alone.
She also read the content on the cement wall under the railway bridge with her own eyes word for word. At this time, she knew what was thinking in his heart.
He looked at the half-cut of dried venison in his hand beside him, with a smile on his face and a somewhat hollow look in his eyes. The dazzling light of the scorching sun above his head cast subtle shadows on Zhang Zhe's face, which looked very sunny and cheerful at this time.
The hair on his body was tinged with a touch of golden color.
After turning his head and taking a look at his daughter Zhang Yuxuan who was sitting with Xiao Fu who was driving the carriage, Mo Xi immediately raised his face and spoke coldly to Zhang Zhe who was sitting next to him in a daze.
"This is City Z. It's very close to where you want to go. Don't wrong yourself. If you want to find Yiran, just go!"
"You know how to get there!"
"If you want to go, I won't stop you. I can raise our daughter without you!"
Zhang Zhe, who was pulled out of his thoughts by Mo Xi's cold words, looked at his daughter Zhang Yuxuan sitting in front of him when Mo Xi, who had a cold expression beside him, didn't know what to say.
After hearing what Mo Xi said, he suddenly turned around, looked at Zhang Zhe with tears in his eyes and fear in his expression, and asked Zhang Zhe in a tearful voice.
"Dad, don't you want me and mom anymore?"
"Dad, Yuxuan doesn't want you to leave. I promise to be good in the future. I will..."
Before her daughter Zhang Yuxuan could finish speaking, Xiaofu, who was driving the carriage, turned around and looked at Zhang Zhe in surprise and said.
"Brother Zhe, what happened to you and Sister Xi? Did you have a fight?"
"What's going on between you two that you can't talk about? If you have to say such serious things, will you scare Yuxuan?"
