This is apocalyptic

Chapter 6 006: Eat
There was candlelight in the room, and a zombie was sitting under the shed outside.

The evening breeze was a bit chilly, and from time to time one or two insects chirped outside the yard. Bai Xiao looked at the light coming through the window for a long time, watching the shadows swaying on the window. Only then could he drool without worrying about being discovered.

this is not right.

Bai Xiao condemned himself, turned his body around and practiced pronunciation facing the wall.

He never thought it would be so difficult to transform thoughts into words and then connect the words into a meaningful sentence.

But it's definitely getting better.

At least in the first two days he couldn't pay attention to whether the stars were bright, the wind was cool, or whether there were any insects chirping.

Everything is getting better.

Bai Xiao strengthened his confidence.

Then someone in the room knocked on the window. Bai Xiao turned around and thought for a while, then he suddenly realized that he must have disturbed someone's rest.

After all, no one wants to hear a zombie roaring outside when they are sleeping in the middle of the night. It’s not the manic kind, but a low, continuous and irritating kind.

Bai Xiao stopped talking and continued to sit cross-legged. The candlelight in the room soon went out. The night made his heart calmer, not as restless as during the day.

Light, sound, and new people will make zombies a little manic, while the night environment can make them stay in one place silently and motionless, or wander slowly in the open space, chasing the moonlight.

Bai Xiao felt that he could sit quietly for a whole night, which should be something only some monks or Taoists could do.

He clasped his hands together.

May Buddha bless the zombie virus to degenerate.

In the early morning, when the other party pushed the door open, he was stunned for a moment, his expression was indescribable, and he glanced over here with an inquiring look.

Bai Xiao took a deep breath and tried not to look at her. The morning air was so fresh, so fresh that it made people feel hungry.

Since you don't have to worry about disturbing people's sleep, continue practicing your voice.

Bai Xiao feels that the biggest differences between humans and zombies are that one retains consciousness, and the other can establish communication. The most effective way to prove the former is the second: the most straightforward and simple communication.

He practiced speaking, calling out to others, but they ignored him and kept busy with their own work. Bai Xiao kept observing them from time to time, just in case they suddenly came out with a scalpel or other scary things and started doing scientific research on him.

The reason why communication is communication is that of course there must be at least two people involved, otherwise it can only be considered self-entertainment. He thinks that if the other person talks more, it may help him recover his language function, but he doesn't know how to make the other person understand.

Today's breakfast paste had some more chopped cabbage in it. Bai Xiao was satisfied with the diversity of the diet. He glanced at the other person's bowl and saw that he was eating the same thing.

Seeing Bai Xiao looking at her bowl, she smiled and said something. Bai Xiao put down the bowl and pointed at her mouth and then her ears.

The other party looked at him strangely and tried to say something again.

Bai Xiao tried hard to make out what the other person was saying. He was now basically certain that there was something wrong with his language nerves, because he could roughly understand what the other person was saying, but it was very difficult to comprehend. It was a very irritating feeling. There were more bloodshot in his eyes, and then he closed his eyes and took a deep breath, wondering if there was any possibility of recovery.

Seeing that he was in a daze, the other party continued to eat after a while. Bai Xiao came to his senses, found the paper and pen that the other party had thrown to him yesterday on the ground, and pointed at it with his finger.

The other party looked at his actions, thought for a while, took out a pen, wrote a few words and handed it to him. Bai Xiao shook his head and continued to point to the small notebook in her hand.

The other party thought about it and raised the notebook with a little surprise. Bai Xiao nodded. The other party hesitated for a moment and threw the notebook over.

Bai Xiao got the notebook and wanted to roar with joy. He remembered reading a report before that one of the ways to treat some aphasic patients to improve their communication ability is to let them read more newspapers and communicate with more people. Although there are no newspapers at the moment, a notebook with a lot of words written on it is probably the same, which can help rebuild the text logic ability from a large amount of text. The other party took a new notebook and observed his movements carefully, occasionally touching his forehead with the tip of a pen, and then thinking for a while.

After a day of observation, she actually understood what Bai Xiao was doing. She went back to the house, took out a few books and threw them over. Seeing Bai Xiao screaming with joy, she became more certain of her guess. She rushed back to the house excitedly, this time taking a little longer, and then took out a radio.

Bai Xiao stood up happily.

But after she fiddled with it for a long time, there was no sound from the radio. Bai Xiao looked at it for a long time and felt disappointed. The batteries were almost rotten. Without electricity, the radio was just a shell and could not make any sound.

How could there be electricity? Bai Xiao sat back and carefully opened the book.

The other party stopped tinkering with it and gave up the idea of ​​making the radio make sound. He looked at Bai Xiao flipping through the book, suddenly smiled, put the radio back, then picked up the hammer and saw and went about his own business.

It was not until the evening that Bai Xiao realized that she was setting a trap. He sawed one end of a steel pipe or a steel chisel into a sharp point, then dug a hole next to the courtyard wall, placed the chisel vertically in it, and then covered the hole lightly.

I don't know whether it is to guard against wandering zombies or against animals.

To her, having me as a visitor seemed like an ordinary thing and did not interfere with her original life, or it did have an impact but not much.

Bai Xiao likes kind and hardworking humans.

One man and one zombie, one in the house and one in the yard, they lived in harmony for a few days.

Although Bai Xiao was manic from time to time and looked scary, the protective equipment was in place and the other party did not show anything. Until a few days later, one morning, Bai Xiao picked up his bowl and suddenly said, "Eat."

The other party looked up in surprise, looked at Bai Xiao, then looked at the bowl, picked it up and gestured, "Eat."

"eat!"

Bai Xiao was very happy, as if his child was learning to speak for the first time and making his first communication. The sad thing was that this person was himself.

Although the words were still a little unclear, the other party obviously understood the word and was very happy, "Eat!"

"eat!"

"Eat." Seeing that Bai Xiao only said this one word, she said it and lowered her head to eat.

"Let me eat you." Bai Xiao said.

"Huh?" She looked up with eyes wide open.

"Here you eat." Bai Xiao said.

"..."

"You eat." Bai Xiao spoke each word carefully. Seeing the other person's expression, he couldn't help but sigh and raised his bowl, saying, "Eat!"

"Fry you." She bared her teeth, smiled, shook her head, and lowered her head to eat.

After eating, she didn't rush to clean up, but sat there, supporting her chin with both hands, staring at Bai Xiao.

In fact, she already knew that this zombie had retained some communication abilities, such as learning to sing, drawing on the ground, communicating with actions, and even reading books and text. But she didn't know whether he retained the consciousness before the infection, or whether he had come back to life after becoming a zombie?
She blinked and stared at the zombie.
