[Martial Arts] Infinite Chamber Game
Chapter 78: Daily Life in the Dead Rising 3
This is said frivolously.
Although his words were frivolous, Chu Liuxiang was not frivolous. His expression was very serious. He was looking at Shen Bijun with burning eyes, and there seemed to be a glow in his eyes.
Brighter than starlight, gentler than moonlight.
Facing a person like him and a look like his, Shen Bijun heard her heart beating extremely fast, almost bursting out of her chest.
She knew that she probably really liked Chu Liuxiang. When did it start? Was it when he sacrificed his life to protect her in times of danger, or when he took good care of her during their daily lives? Was it when he comforted her after her miscarriage, or when he smiled vaguely at her face in the basement, with sweat streaking across it?
To Shen Bijun, this liking was undoubtedly sinful, so when she understood her own heart, she urgently needed to cool down and calm down.
She had to tell herself over and over again: I am a married woman, my husband is very gentle and considerate, he is also handsome and elegant, and when I am in danger, he will definitely stand up and protect me at the cost of his life.
The most important thing is, he has never done anything to let me down, and I can never let him down!
Her heartbeat gradually calmed down, and when she looked at Chu Liuxiang again, she suddenly felt a little inexplicably annoyed.
This guy must have done it on purpose! Whenever he sees a beautiful woman, he is always like this. It's just the nature of a playboy!
She glared at Chu Liuxiang fiercely, and her panicked voice calmed down, which was even colder than the winter wind.
"There's nothing wrong with a lively heart cooling down a bit!"
After saying that, she quickly walked back to the car. The car door slammed, and then a small "click" came from the car door. She actually locked the car door. No one knew who taught her to do that, but Chu Liuxiang still doesn't know how to lock the car door.
He was locked out and felt a little embarrassed.
Suddenly, the car window opened, and the thick coat flew out of the car, just covering his head, as if to isolate something.
Chu Liuxiang took off his coat and touched his nose.
He could understand Shen Bijun's sudden anger.
Everyone in the world says that Chu Xiangshuai is romantic and passionate, and has countless beautiful women around him, but in fact he is usually very well-behaved when facing women, especially ladies. His eyes are usually on the tip of his shoes most of the time.
The words just now were indeed a bit abrupt, but on such a quiet night, standing in such a hazy warm light, the beautiful lady frowned slightly, with a sad look on her face, and when she looked back, her whole body was enveloped in the warm light, beautiful and illusory, like a dream, how could he not be moved?
The night wind was howling, and even the frost on the ground was picked up by the wind and blown into tiny ice crystals, which hit people's bodies with crackling sounds.
Chu Liuxiang wrapped himself tightly with clothes. If he stood there for a while longer, not only would his heart feel cold, but his whole body would be frozen into ice.
The romantic and passionate Mr. Chu decided to remember this lesson. He clenched his fists, put them to his lips and blew on them, then walked towards the distant place where the car lights were shining, until the high beams could no longer illuminate him.
Shen Bijun watched Chu Liuxiang walk away. She originally thought that he was quite sensible, but when he didn't come back after walking for a long time, Shen Bijun became a little worried. What if he got frozen in such a cold weather? What if he ran into a group of zombies?
Then he thought, his martial arts skills were so strong that even if he ran into a group of zombies, what could those slow-moving monsters do to him if he wanted to run? Moreover, he himself said that when he was a teenager, he practiced martial arts slowly in the ice and snow, so he was afraid of everything, not the cold.
The wind was blowing harder and harder. Standing outside, I was afraid I couldn't even breathe. The snowflakes were hitting the car window, making a non-stop sound, as if they were hitting Shen Bijun's heart.
Time passed minute by minute, the moon slowly broke through the clouds and moved gradually westward from the sky. Shen Bijun leaned against the chair, staring at the direction where Chu Liuxiang had left. She stared for a while and then fell into a doze. She woke up quickly and felt very nervous after waking up.
She immediately unlocked the car and jumped out. The cold wind immediately blew through her body. The wind blowing on her face felt like a knife cutting flesh. She looked around and searched around the car, but she still hadn't seen Chu Liuxiang come back!
It’s such a cold day!
Shen Bijun immediately got back into the car, started it and drove forward. There was only one road, and as long as she kept driving forward, she might meet him.
The car was not driving fast, but after driving for almost an hour, there was still no sign of Chu Liuxiang. Shen Bijun was really panicked. She got out of the car again and looked at the road carefully to see if there were any footprints.
There was snow on the road, and the snow had frozen hard. Even a heavy truck would only leave two shallow tracks, let alone Chu Liuxiang's footprints? He was so good at Qinggong.
Naturally, nothing was found.
Shen Bijun stamped her feet in anxiety and began to regret locking the person outside.
The moon moved a little further west, the sky was as black as ink, there was no sound or trace of human beings around, it seemed as if she was the only one left between heaven and earth.
The wind was blowing hard, and Shen Bijun was both scared and worried. Although she was freezing, she refused to go back to the car. She just huddled up and looked helplessly at the fields beside the road.
I don’t know how long it had been, but suddenly, a burst of cheerful music came faintly from the front.
"It's him, it's him, that's him, the young hero Nezha, he's higher than the sky in the sky, and he's bigger than the sea in the sea..."
The sound is vague and sometimes disappears. This is... Chu Liuxiang's skill!
Shen Bijun suddenly became alert, got back into the car immediately and drove towards the direction where the sound came from.
The sound of cheerful music became clearer and clearer.
"...sometimes he's smart, sometimes he's stupid~ He's as tall as me..."
Under the light of the high beam, Chu Liuxiang floated over like a ghost, and he seemed to be holding something in his arms. When he got closer, Shen Bijun could see clearly that he was holding a person.
A girl.
When the music ended, he also approached the car. Shen Bijun opened the door early, and Chu Liuxiang got into the car quickly, bringing in a cold air.
"Water, she's dying."
The two of them tacitly agreed not to mention the unpleasantness that had just occurred. The truck was driving slowly through the fields, heading towards the road Chu Liuxiang had come from.
It is also the road leading to the village.
The girl he was holding was still curled up in his arms, drinking water and eating food in big gulps. She looked to be only twelve or thirteen years old, with messy hair, a dirty face, and a terribly thin body, almost as thin as a skeleton.
"My parents were in the city, and I went back to my hometown to visit my grandma. I was caught there just in time. The village was in chaos at the time, and I couldn't get through to my parents on the phone. My grandma and I were hiding in the vegetable cellar, and then my grandma went to look for my aunt and never came back... When I left, most of the villagers were gone. When this uncle came, I thought it was one of those monsters. I was scared to death."
The girl's name is Li Yan. She was just in junior high school when the zombies broke out. She is a girl with a very strong character. Maybe she was not strong before, but she has been struggling to survive for so long. However, no matter how strong and brave she is, she is just a child. The man-eating monsters are wandering at the door of her house. She dare not go out at all. She relies on the raw cabbage and raw potatoes in the vegetable cellar to survive. Recently, the weather is getting colder and colder. She can't stand the cold, so she wants to quietly go back to the house to light the stove to keep warm.
It was easy to get out but difficult to go back. When Chu Liuxiang found her, she was so hungry that she couldn't move, and she stared at the door with her eyes wide open.
Three zombies were banging on her door violently, growling like wild beasts, and the door was already shaking.
It was this voice that attracted Chu Liuxiang over there.
Shen Bijun sighed, patted the girl's head lovingly, and immediately asked, "What's the matter with the song you're playing?"
She remembered that it was a danger warning. It was the singing that gave the warning, otherwise the two of them would have been surrounded by the swarm of zombies.
Chu Liuxiang smiled bitterly and said, "I encountered a group of zombies at the entrance of the village. They chased me closely. I had to run around the village for a long time before I escaped."
Shen Bijun believed it.
Of course, that was not the case. It was just that encountering a swarm of zombies would not trigger an alarm. What Chu Liuxiang did not say was that after he saved Li Yan, Li Yan begged him to go to her aunt's house. Although the hope was slim, if she didn't go and take a look, she would never be able to get over this hurdle in her life. Chu Liuxiang would certainly not refuse.
What’s amazing is that even though my aunt’s family is gone, there are still people living next door to her.
The door next door had been broken open and half of the outer wall had collapsed. A young man was huddled in the corner of the room with two zombies lying at his feet.
As long as the person is alive, Chu Liuxiang will of course save him.
It was too dark and he couldn't see clearly that the young man's ear was broken.
The young man was originally chattering along, and when the song started, his hand was still on Chu Liuxiang's shoulder.
If Chu Liuxiang hadn't reacted quickly and jumped onto the roof with Li Yan in his arms, he probably wouldn't have been able to come back.
This was too thrilling. Telling it to others would only make people worry, so Chu Liuxiang pretended that it had never happened and told the good news with a smile.
"There is a lot of coal in the village. Not only coal, but also..."
"There are also a lot of pine needles, corn stalks and corn kernels!" Li Yan interjected.
In general, it is a large pile of firewood to help ignite the fire, specially used for making stoves in the north!
……
It was already the evening of the third day when the truck drove back to the community.
The trunk was filled with firewood and some living things.
Chu Liuxiang did not forget the instructions given by his third brother before he left. Most of the poultry and livestock in the village had died, but there were still some on the mountain.
There is a mountain behind the village. Humans have not been out for several months, and the pheasants in the mountains dared to come out to look for food. Chu Liuxiang only went out for the morning and caught eight pheasants, both male and female, all alive and kicking.
Almost every household in the village had a vegetable cellar. Chu Liuxiang searched each one of them and brought back more than 100 kilograms of cabbage, more than 40 kilograms of potatoes, and six survivors.
As soon as the car drove into the community, Lin Shiyin was already waiting at the door holding the child. The third brother was also there. He looked at the full car of things and without waiting for them to go for the physical examination, he pulled Chu Liuxiang over and hugged him tightly.
"It has to be you, Brother Chu!" He patted Chu Liuxiang's shoulder vigorously: "You are really my real father! Even my real father is not as useful as you!"
At the strong request of the third brother, the community canteen started cooking for the first time. Two precious pheasants were put into the pot and stewed with cabbage and potatoes to make several large pots of soup. The chef proudly named this dish "Phoenix Spreading Wings".
The two big and fat pheasants were divided equally among more than a hundred people, with each person getting a little bit of meat. They drank the soup in big gulps, holding the thin and small piece of meat in their mouths, reluctant to swallow it, and almost crying with happiness.
The next day, the third brother's convoy set off in a mighty manner. All the cars in the community that could be driven away drove away. Chu Liuxiang took the lead and it took two days to transport all the coal and firewood from the glove factory and the entire village back.
Even more fortunately, one of the people Chu Liuxiang brought back happened to be a former boiler operator in the village bathhouse. He was an older uncle, and although he had never operated a boiler in the city community, he went in and explored it for a day. By evening, the floor heating in the north building of the community was all heated up, and the indoor temperature basically remained at around 26 degrees. Sometimes it was so hot that he had to open the windows for ventilation.
There was still no warmth in the villa. The uncle said that the pipes in the villa had been modified and were burning natural gas, but he didn't know how to fix it.
So all the people who had originally been vying to live in the villas moved out within one day, and all six apartment buildings from the first to the twelfth floor were fully occupied.
Shen Bijun, Bai Xiaobai and Guan Minghui counted the supplies in the community together. After the calculation, they couldn't help but smile with joy. They didn't know how rich their family assets were until they calculated them.
It is enough for more than a hundred people to have food and drink until June next year!
Mainly because in the past month, the third brother and his people have been working diligently every day, like hamsters, emptying six large supermarkets. Things like bed sheets, quilt covers, clothes, socks, toothpaste, toothbrushes, soap, shampoo, shower gel, sanitary napkins, toilet paper, condoms, etc. filled two buildings. As for food, a food processing factory and a mineral water factory in Jiutai District, City C were also visited by them. Nearly 500 boxes of spicy hot pot, cold noodles and snail noodles occupied two buildings by themselves. The boxes were neatly stacked in the room and even the corridor was full.
When supplies were scarce, the third brother arranged people to take turns guarding, and anyone who wanted to take something had to report to him. Now he is too lazy to care. Whoever wants to use something can take it by themselves. As long as there is no waste, there are enough supplies anyway.
The survival crisis came to an end for the time being. The community was tightly guarded like a barrier, so the martial arts training that had been done for three days and rested for two days was put on the agenda and became the main daily task of these people.
Since everyone was participating and there were so many people, the basement of the third brother definitely could not accommodate the event, so the new venue was moved to the center of the community.
After roll call, a great day starts with a run.
