Volume 3 Chapter 41 Misery loves company

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

It has been a long time since the young zombie had dominated the old Chinatown site. He had never been bullied so much, so now he was wronged and angry.

He gnashed his teeth and rushed up like a beast again and again. Then he was beaten to the ground by Shao Qing again and again. He looked very pitiful. Every time he climbed up, he was particularly tenacious. His clothes were also getting all ragged.

Shao Qing looked at the time. According to usual, Er Dai should be waking up, she had to go back soon, at least return before Er Dai awoke. Otherwise if Er Dai did not see her, he would definitely flip.

So Shao Qing was ready to resolve this in the shortest time to take the rank 6 crystal nucleus home, and appease her Er Dai.

Taking advantage of the fact that they were still at a survivor base and that it was a relatively safe place, she should hurry and have Er Dai get promoted. Then they would hurry to bang bang bang. Or else if they left the survivor base, and Er Dai suddenly improved his rank halfway along, the two would have to have s*x outdoors. That would be too shameful.

Hurrying to terminate her shameless thoughts, Shao Qing coughed and raised her hand, ready to kill the zombie.

It’s just that sometimes, especially when people are unlucky, things that are easy would have sudden twists and turns, like now.

Shao Qing was ready to end everything in front of him and to leave with the harvest, when some people were about to kick in.

“Stop it!” An anxious and frightened female voice sounded out. Following her voice came a dagger.

Shao Qing frowned, holding the powerless dagger in her palm. She looked at the incoming person. The person running over was a woman. She didn’t look very old, about in her twenties. She wasn’t that strong, maybe a rank 3.

But how can a woman with only rank 3 abilities survive with so many zombies?

After the woman ran up, she immediately hugged the zombie boy lying on the ground, pressing his head. She looked frightened: “Please let him go, he does not understand anything. He doesn’t know anything,”

The unruly young zombie was held in the arms by the young girl. Although he still had his teeth bared and looked discontent, he put away his nails carefully, fearing that he might hurt the young girl.

Shao Qing was stunned. Apart from her own group, she had never seen a person and a zombie get along so peacefully.

Shao Qing froze for a long time before asking: “He was raised by you?”

The girl hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Today, the teenager who had been so docile, who allowed her to comb his hair suddenly went crazy and ran out.

She was just a third rank superhuman and her ability was useless. She just couldn’t keep up with the teenager. When she finally caught up, she just happened to see that Shao Qing was going to kill the teenager.

She was about to go insane at that time. Originally, with the strength of the teenager, it should be very safe at this Chinatown survivor base. There was no person or zombie that was his opponent. She did not expect for someone like Shao Qing to suddenly pop up.

The girl was desperate. She felt that today must be the end. After all, who would let go of a zombie of rank six and a person who raised a zombie?

“He is my junior at school. He had chased me for a long time. When the end of the world occurred, we happened to be in school at that time. He came to me, took me away from the school that was full of zombies and had always been protecting me. If not, because of my weakness, I would have long become rations for zombies. Later, in order to protect me, he attracted the zombies while I hid in a car. I watched him get surrounded by zombies. It was then I realized that I had fallen in love with him.” The girl’s tears slowly spilled out: “At that moment, I awakened my superpower. I thought I could save him, but it turned out that what I awakened was a useless skill. That is, zombies won’t hurt me, they would treat me as their kind. I returned to the zombie group and brought out the dying him. But no matter how hard I tried, he still became a zombie. At that moment, he begged me. He said Ah Yun, kill me, I don’t want to be a zombie. I don’t want to hurt you and I don’t want to eat people. But how could I bear it… this was my loved one… I would rather he become a monster, I would rather he could never remember me, then to kill him…”

The girl chuckled lightly. There was a touch of indifference and decisiveness on her delicate face: “I am a very selfish person. I take care of him, I even look around for corpses, cut the meat and feed it to him. I taught him to wash his hands, taught him how to brush his teeth, taught him to change his clothes… After a long, long time, he no longer rejected me. He started to get close to me, protect me, and depend on me like a child… I was very satisfied… these times were all stolen by a person like me. I’m selfish and indifferent…I should have died…I am just begging you for one thing, kill me first. I don’t want to see him die in front of me.”

Once love was in a woman’s grasp, the woman at this time was the most frightening and the most respectable.

Shao Qing could see the girl’s despair, and imagine how she took a loved one who turned into a zombie and survived in this world.

She was a bit envious. She was envious that one of them had, in order to protect the person he loved, become a zombie, while the other, even if the loved one became a zombie, did not leave him.

Isn’t this an enviable thing?

Just like Yan Qiyue, Er Dai, and…… Yan Hanqing.

They all had not given up on her.

Shao Qing squatted down, touched the head of the young zombie, then smiled and said to the girl: “You are very impressive. He is a rank 6 and should return back to normal soon.”

The girl was surprised, it was a good surprise. Her voice was trembling: “Can he recover? Return back to normal? Become a normal person?”

Shao Qing wasn’t facing Tang Tiande, so they couldn’t see Shao Qing’s movements. Shao Qing reached out her hand, her fingertips slowly protruded gray and black nails, with an evil aura: “I am special, but I can live like a normal person, I believe he can do it as well.”

The girl was ecstatic, she covered her mouth. Her tears streamed down her face. She had originally given up all hope. She thought she would be guarding him all her life. Even if he was a zombie, it didn’t matter.

She didn’t expect that after the hard times were over, the good times would begin; that one day, someone would tell her that her lover had a chance to return to normal, smile at her, cry at her, speak to her, and comfort her when she was sad.

“Thank you…Thank you…” The girl naturally understood that Shao Qing was not going to kill them. Besides finding that glimmer of hope at death’s door, she felt inexpressible gratitude.

She had thought they would die today.

Shao Qing and the girl exchanged their thoughts on raising zombies: “Senior zombies actually have their own mind, even if their thinking was very simple, just like a child. But at least they have their own likes and dislikes. If you chat with them more, accompany them more and guide them to do something, it will help with their recovery. My family’s Er Dai right now not only will be jealous, but can say a word or two.”

Shao Qing was very proud talking about Er Dai. Her tone was very much like a mom bragging about their child winning first place in their grade.

The girl was very envious, and a little downcast: “When will I be able to hear it, hear him shouting my name again.”

“Soon. According to my estimate, zombies should have the ability for simple communication at about seventh or eighth rank.” Shao Qing continued: “If you have the ability, you can give him more advanced zombie crystal cores to practice with. This will make it faster.”

“It turned out like this.” The girl suddenly realized: “After we lived here, Mingye often went out to hunt for zombies. Originally there was a rank 6 zombie. At that time, Mingye was only rank 5. When I wasn’t paying attention, he went to go challenge it. It had come back with bruises and insisted on giving me a crystal nucleus, but I still haven’t used it…”

The girl took out the crystal nucleus from the sachet that she carried with her and then handed it to Shao Qing: “I’ll give it to you. This can be considered a thank you gift. Thank you for not hurting Mingye.”

“You can give it to him, maybe he can be directly promoted to rank 6.” Shao Qing replied.

She had a good feeling towards this girl. Since they had a similar fate, it makes her feel tender about the girl.

This was the feeling of sympathy towards people facing the same problems.

“You take it, I can feel that Mingye is slowly recovering. I think you probably need a rank six crystal nucleus more than me.” The girl said with a chuckle: “If Mingye is fine, I am already content. ”

Shao Qing hesitated a little, then took the crystal nucleus. She really needed a crystal nucleus. This rank 6 crystal nucleus was enough for Er Dai to rise to the sixth rank.

She looked forward to seeing whether he could speak her name fluently after he was raised to rank 6.

“If I have the opportunity, I will compensate you.” Shao Qing said lightly.

The girl just smiled, then took the hand of the young zombie. The young zombie kept making an impatient grunt, but was obediently hugged by the girl

He probably could feel the fear in the girl’s heart. He would quietly touch the girl’s hair with his palm to appease her.

Because of this warm atmosphere, Shao Qing couldn’t help but smile. She asked the girl: “Have you ever thought about leaving? Back to China? I built a city in China called Jiangcheng, they are all of my kind.”

The girl was moved for a moment, then finally shook her head: “Actually, I really want to go back to my hometown, but forget it. I have built our home here. After staying for so long, I don’t want to change places. If Mingye can recover, maybe we will go back, then we will go find you.”

“Okay.” Shao Qing stood up and said: “The entrance of Jiangcheng will always be open for you.”

“Thank you.” The girl smiled shyly: “My name is Jiang Yun, his name is Lan Mingye. What about you?”

“Shao Qing.” Shao Qing waved her hand: “Good luck and goodbye.”

Then she turned and left. Tang Tiande who heard some of the events was shocked stupid. One second they were fighting each other, then the next they resolved everything peacefully?

Moreover, that’s a zombie!

Women are really strange creatures.
