Xie Chiyuan found a suitable spot to pitch his tent and announced that he would rest there.
"Why haven't the kids come back yet?"
After all the tents were set up in the open space, Yu An still didn't see the kids.
He sat at the entrance of the tent and made a phone call to the kids.
"Brother, it's so cool here at night! We want to play a little longer!"
"Big brother, there are fireflies here!"
Although this place is remote and underdeveloped, the air and environment are truly exceptional.
The kids sounded energetic on the phone and didn't seem to be in any trouble.
Yu An frowned, but finally relented: "You can play a little longer, but not for too long."
"If you don't sleep at night, you won't be able to get up during the day."
"I know, I'll come back to sleep."
After hanging up the phone, Yu An put it away. He assigned a tent to the two men and one woman who had come with him, while Qiu Qiu slept with Xiao Lu.
The two of them didn't know what they talked about, but the decision to sleep together was made by the two of them.
The tent is neither too big nor too small; it's just the right size to lay out two blankets.
Chiu Chiu and Xiao Lu kept talking, keeping a distance between them.
Yu An glanced at the time and decided to take a nap first.
Before I could even go to sleep, Ye Hui came over.
Ye Hui, who had just borrowed water to wash up, was now only wearing a tank top and shorts. She walked up to Yu An, looked at Yu An, and then looked at Xie Chiyuan behind Yu An.
"Could you give me another tent? Or, could I squeeze in with you?"
"I don't want to sleep with them."
Ye Hui lowered her voice, her expression revealing an unspeakable secret.
Before Yu An could speak, Xie Chiyuan directly and calmly replied, "No."
He spoke coldly to the beautiful Ye Hui: "Giving you a tent is already my boyfriend being kind."
"If you're not satisfied, you don't have to live there."
"If I don't live inside... then where will I sleep at night?"
Ye Hui asked, her almond-shaped eyes filled with tears, looking aggrieved.
Xie Chiyuan frowned: "You can sleep wherever you want, what's it to me?"
Ye Hui couldn't gain any advantage over these two men.
She finally gave up and had no choice but to turn back.
When the two men in the tent saw her return, they exchanged a glance but neither of them spoke.
After a while.
They waited until she calmed down a bit before whispering, "Don't look for them, we'll definitely be able to leave."
“They can be our live targets. With them causing trouble here, we might all be overlooked.”
"impossible."
Ye Hui immediately dismissed the possibility; the monster chasing her wouldn't let her go.
She had to stay by their side.
One of these two people is Xie Chiyuan.
Ye Hui insisted on staying, and the two men in front of her couldn't say anything more.
The night was quiet.
Occasionally, you can hear conversations coming from the tents of Chiu Chiu and Xiao Lu, but their voices are muffled and unclear.
Chiu Chiu was listening to Xiao Lu talk about the place. Not many people come here, so there are many wild animals.
Chirp loves fluffy things the most.
He listened to Xiaolu tell him about the furry things here, and the more he listened, the more interesting it became.
Until Xie Chiyuan, who was on night watch, knocked on their tent from the outside.
"Chirp chirp, it's time to sleep."
"If you don't go to sleep, I'll tell your older brother."
Upon hearing that Xie Chiyuan was going to complain, Qiuqiu hurriedly declared, "We won't talk anymore, we'll go to sleep now."
He and Xiao Lu obediently closed their eyes, while Xie Chiyuan guarded the place in the darkness.
Yu An didn't wake up until almost dawn. When he woke up, Xie Chiyuan was still awake.
"I've already slept."
Yu An was extremely annoyed. He had originally planned to sleep for two hours and then take over Xie Chiyuan's shift so that Xie Chiyuan could rest.
"It's okay, if you're still sleepy, just keep sleeping. It's still early, you don't need to get up."
Xie Chiyuan has no intention of changing shifts; even if he doesn't sleep for three days, he won't die suddenly.
Yu An knew he was physically strong, but still insisted on switching shifts with him.
You cherish your own boyfriend.
Even if her boyfriend could go three days without sleeping, she couldn't actually let him go three days without sleeping.
Under Yu An's insistence, Xie Chiyuan rested in the tent for a while.
Yu An is occasionally grumpy when he wakes up, but his grumpyness depends on the situation. For example, right now, he has no grumpyness at all.
Xie Chiyuan was sleeping inside, and the children who had just returned were also sleeping in the tent.
I don't know what kind of trouble they caused outside, but when they came back, they were all snoring away.
Yu An checked and felt relieved to find that all the babies were still alive.
About two more hours passed.
As dawn broke, Xie Chiyuan recovered his strength after a two-hour rest.
"Brother, the zombies here are all in groups of several, and their attack power is not strong."
After daybreak, the children, who had been woken up by Yu An, rubbed their eyes and reported to Yu An.
They were still sleepy, yawning: "Big brother, we killed a lot of zombies."
"Have you seen the Zombie King?"
"No."
The Zombie King is the highest-level zombie. He has the ability to control other zombies and has survived until now, so he must be no ordinary person.
Yu An, Xie Chiyuan, and the kids all believed that this zombie king would definitely be hard to find.
However, they are patient and will surely be able to find this zombie king.
"Brother, these are for you."
Bazai pulled out a plastic bag, which was full of things.
Yu An took it and saw that it was full of small fruits.
“We picked them outside. They’re edible. Si Zai ate them and didn’t die.”
Yu An: "???"
Yu An's eyes widened in disbelief. How could his little one just eat such an unfamiliar fruit like that?
Regardless of whether they're poisonous or not, if they get diarrhea or stomach upset from eating them, these little ones will regret it!
The kids told their older brother everything they thought was important, and then they started to fall back down.
"Big brother, we want to sleep a little longer."
"Let's talk after you wake up."
The babies were just woken up, but they weren't really awake.
They were still incredibly sleepy.
Seeing how tired they were, Yu An couldn't bring himself to harden his heart and not let them sleep.
"Alright, you guys sleep a little longer. I'm going out with Xie Chiyuan."
It's cool in the morning, so it's easier for him and Xie Chiyuan to go out and search around then.
Leaving the children behind, Yu An and Xie Chiyuan went out first.
The two walked side by side outside, Yu An holding Xie Chiyuan's hand, as they searched for traces of the zombies.
They were gradually expanding their search area, and in doing so, they encountered the corpses of zombies.
These corpses don't seem to have been left by the cubs; it seems like they were left by someone else.
"Xie Chiyuan, do you think there are any other survivors here?"
"There should be."
Living in such a remote place has both advantages and disadvantages.
Zombies generally don't spread to this place. Even if they did, the people here live halfway up the mountain, and if they wanted to go and eat them, there would be a bottomless abyss behind them.
"If there are people living here, it means there must be a village. But we've walked for so long, why haven't we seen a village yet?"
Yu An felt a little regretful; he should have brought Xiao Lu along.
Xiaolu and Qiuqiu chatted for quite a while, so they should be able to reveal a lot of information.
"I saw it."
Xie Chiyuan was fast on his feet and was very good at searching.
Before Yu An could continue to feel annoyed, his eyes had already spotted the "village" not far away.
