This is apocalyptic

Chapter 109 108: Gun
The cold wind was still howling, and the warm blood was emitting heat as it surged up, but soon cooled down.

Bai Xiao wiped the blood off his helmet. No matter how smart the wolves were, they could not understand why a sudden gunshot would take a life.

The four wolves ran away and there was no more gunfire, but Bai Xiao knew that if they came closer, there would still be gunfire behind him.

He dragged the bodies of four wolves back, leaving a large trail of warm blood on the snow.

In the distance, Lin Duoduo's face was red from the cold. She came over in the wind and snow and helped drag the corpse.

The sky was dark. Bai Xiao looked back and saw a faint shadow in the distance.

When the wolf was dragged back, it had already cooled down completely. So they skinned it and cut and washed its meat. The meat was not tasty, it was fishy and hard, but it was always good to have meat to eat.

He originally wanted to send one to Aunt Qian, and the rifle would have been of great help, but it was already a little late, so Bai Xiao did not risk going out again.

“You’re really accurate.”

"It's okay." Lin Duoduo said. The snow and wind were too strong, and she couldn't do anything about the wolf that ran away. "I wanted you to run, why did you rush forward?"

"I'm a zombie."

"Are you not afraid that I might miss the target?"

"It'll be fine if you don't hit your head."

Lin Duoduo pinched his face, as if she had become accustomed to those scarlet eyes.

"They may still be wandering around." Bai Xiao sat by the fire to warm himself, thinking that there were more traces than just these few that he had seen during the day.

"Don't go out." Lin Duoduo said.

"You can stay at home for a few days, but you can't stay at home forever. Let's see the situation and see when they will leave." Bai Xiao was very reluctant to confront this kind of creature. He didn't run over and bite it directly, but followed it from a distance and observed it, waiting to find its weakness and opportunity.

"If it treats this place as its territory, we have to find a way to get rid of it, otherwise it might be taken away when we go out one day." Bai Xiao said.

"The situation on the mountain is not very good." Lin Duoduo said, looking out the window.

"That's my guess. Maybe there were more infected animals in their original place, so they migrated here." Bai Xiao said.

He didn't know if they were that smart, so he just assumed the worst.

It was snowing heavily outside. Bai Xiao and Lin Duoduo were both grateful for the snow, as it left no place for those traces to hide. If it hadn't snowed heavily continuously to cover up the traces of that night, it would have been easy to see what had been outside.

"It's very cold at night, so cover yourself with a thicker quilt," said Lin Duoduo.

“I built three floors.”

It was getting late. After eating a few pieces of wolf meat, which was very chewy and could be chewed for a long time, or in other words, hard, Bai Xiao went back to rest.

The broken houses in the village that had lost their windows would make a humming sound when the wind blew, and the broken things that Lin Duoduo had picked up in the yard would occasionally make the sound of bottles colliding.

night.

late at night.

I thought it would pass peacefully.

Bai Xiao suddenly sat up from the bed, put on his clothes, took a knife and went out. He went to the next door and knocked twice. The window opened, and without waiting for the human to ask anything, he went in through the window and came into the house.

"Shh..." Bai Xiao hid in the darkness and made a hissing sound.

The skinny shadow was in the room. Lin Duoduo took the gun and stood by the window. She did not have as sharp hearing as the Zombie King. It took a long time before she heard some subtle sounds.

There seems to be something outside.

Something entered the yard and mixed with the sound of the wind.

It had happened before, but not so close, and she didn't notice it. It just quietly walked past the door in the middle of the night. She didn't know what it was. It was not until dawn that she saw messy footprints on the road outside the yard. To this day, she still doesn't know what happened that night.

In fact, ignorance is also a kind of bliss. The Zombie King is very sensitive and can know everything that passes by.

Bai Xiao pulled her back and found that she was only wearing a single piece of clothing. There was no heating in the room and she had to rely on a thick quilt to keep warm. Bai Xiao pushed her to the bed.

Lin Duoduo only felt cold at this moment and put on a coat. Bai Xiao whispered, "It might be a wolf from the daytime."

"There is a trap." Lin Duoduo said.

After saying this, Bai Xiao covered her mouth. A low growl came from the yard. Not far from the room, the door of Bai Xiao's room next door seemed to be hit. Lin Duoduo didn't know how they got in. She held the gun tightly and looked at Bai Xiao. Bai Xiao stood in front of the window and just listened.

I don't know how long it took, but it seemed calm outside. Lin Duoduo wrapped herself in a quilt and sat on the bed with a gun in her arms, until the light outside the window gradually brightened and it was dawn. Bai Xiao pushed open the door, looked around, and stepped out. There were messy footprints on the thick snow in the yard, extending from his side of the yard. There was a trap against the wall outside Lin Duoduo's yard, but there was no gain and it was not triggered.

The wall on Lin Duoduo's side is high, and it was once reinforced to prevent zombies, but the wall on Bai Xiao's side is lower. The original owner died long ago and he didn't reinforce it so carefully. There are messy footprints in front of his house, and there are some claw marks on the wooden door.

There is also one in front of Lin Duoduo's door.

"We have to kill them." Bai Xiao went outside to take a look. The snow made all traces visible.

"You came here by smelling the blood, right?" Lin Duoduo looked at the four wolf skins hanging next to the well.

"Maybe, he's being targeted." Bai Xiao said in a low voice.

The snow hadn't stopped, it was just getting lighter. There were messy footprints outside, indicating the arrival of visitors last night.

Bai Xiao still did not send the wolf meat away, nor did he go out. It was freezing cold now, and it was not easy to set a trap in his own yard. He did not go out for a day, blocked the gap in the middle wall of the two yards, put several wooden boards full of long nails on the ground, and reinforced Lin Duoduo's door.

He did not go back at night, but simply stayed at Lin Duoduo's place. He had never been to Lin Duoduo's room. This room was far less simple than his. There were many useful and useless things, and there were several large boxes piled in the corner.

There was an old photo on the table in the room, of a man and a woman. He had seen Lin Huayou who had turned into a zombie, and could still vaguely recognize his appearance, except that he wore a pair of glasses and looked gentle and refined. Standing next to him was a woman with a bulging belly and a pretty face. Lin Duoduo's eyes were somewhat similar to hers.

This can barely be considered a family photo, and it is the only one. Lin Duoduo is not in the photo. She was still in the belly and was born when the disaster struck. This is the only one among all the old photos that has her in it.

The yard was quiet, with only the sound of the wind. Candles were lit in the room. Seeing him looking at the photo, Lin Duoduo smoothed her hair and took it down, "These are my parents."

"I can see that." Bai Xiao said, "They are very powerful."

Lin Duoduo touched the photo. Under the dim candlelight, she looked at the Zombie King and said, "Look, I was so small back then. I hadn't even come out of the belly yet."

"There were no zombies at that time," said Bai Xiao.

"They definitely wouldn't have thought that I would be neighbors with a zombie." Lin Duoduo said.

"You certainly haven't thought of that before."
