Yu An stood up and poured him a glass of water.
Seeing this, his teammates exclaimed with envy, "Not only is his wife beautiful, but she's also so well-behaved. Brother Xie is so lucky!"
Soldiers like them spend most of their time in the military, making it difficult for them to find partners.
Seeing how much Yu An cares for Xie Chiyuan, everyone is incredibly envious.
Yu An remained calm when she heard them call her sister-in-law.
Anyway, if he just stands at Xie Chiyuan's door without going in, it will be taken as a sign that he and Xie Chiyuan are having a fight and are living apart. Clarifying it is completely useless.
"Yu An".
Pei Si, who had always wanted to find a partner, was also envious. He couldn't help but secretly ask Yu An, "Do you think it's easy for me to find a wife given my current market value?"
Yu An: "..."
Yu An was stunned.
How would Pei Si know if he could find a wife? He didn't even have a suitable candidate to introduce him to.
The group chatted idly from time to time, and Yu An even took the opportunity to ask Pei Si about her criteria for choosing a partner.
She needs to be beautiful, gentle, and intellectual.
Of course, if someone is really good-looking, their personality doesn't matter.
Yu An pondered to himself, his precious children possessed the qualities of being good-looking, gentle, and well-behaved. He wondered if they would have as much difficulty finding wives as Pei Si in the future.
Before he could figure it out, Xie Chiyuan had already put down the map.
"Pei Si, you all stay here."
Xie Chiyuan didn't intend to take them along. He instructed, "Keep an eye on Yu An and find a chance to leave here beforehand. Don't worry about me."
Before arriving, Xie Chiyuan hadn't expected there to be so many mutants here.
Although there is a magician in the Red Bird Organization, in the past, magicians could not cause any trouble.
Pei Si is not useless. As long as the city gates are open, he can still lead his men out.
When Yu An saw that he was going out alone, she instinctively wanted to follow him.
"I'll go too."
Yu An grabbed his clothes. Perhaps it was because he had licked the blood, but Yu An was inexplicably worried about his safety.
"Yu An, it's dangerous outside."
Pei Si was quite sensible. He advised, "You probably won't be of much help if you go with us. You might as well stay with us."
Yu An shook his head, stubbornly holding onto Xie Chiyuan.
"I won't hold him back. I'll hide when Xie Chiyuan is fighting, and if he can't win, I'll drag him back."
Xie Chiyuan: "?"
Xie Chiyuan's dark eyes narrowed: "Who are you saying you can't beat?"
Yu An remained silent.
He figured that since he wasn't human, he couldn't possibly get infected while wandering around outside.
From this perspective, it looks very safe.
Xie Chiyuan still didn't agree. He ruffled the tuft of hair on Yu An's head and said, "Be obedient and follow Pei Si."
No matter how much Yu An wanted to follow, there was nothing she could do.
Xie Chiyuan was in a hurry and didn't plan to wait until night to take action.
The door opened and closed again.
Yu An listened to Xie Chiyuan's footsteps disappear completely, then sullenly sat back down in her chair.
Pei Si squatted down in front of the bound zombie woman, drawing Yu An's attention to her: "Yu An, do you think she's completely lost her mind this time?"
Yu An looked down.
Even though the zombie was bound and gagged, she would still stretch her neck and make a fierce gesture whenever someone approached.
"I have no idea."
Yu An had never communicated with zombies before; he had only ever seen one zombie that he could communicate with, so he lacked experience.
The group in the basement had nothing to do for the time being, so they started chatting with the zombie: "Take her to Dr. Tang, maybe Dr. Tang can figure something out."
"When we encounter an emergency and can't defeat the zombies, we'll try to make them come to their senses and stop fighting us."
Their ideas were still quite good.
As Yu An listened to their discussion, he suddenly felt that if Sun Mo appeared in front of them, they might actually be able to accept it.
Time passed little by little.
Yu An was unaware of the situation outside and could only sit there staring blankly at Pei Si.
Pei Si glanced at the time and said unhurriedly, "Wait a little longer. It's not that easy to resolve things outside. We'll leave in two hours."
Yu An became restless upon hearing that he was leaving.
His child hasn't returned yet, and he can't bring himself to go with Pei Si.
Two hours passed quickly.
Pei Si didn't wait any longer. He took the bound woman and crept towards the old city gate.
at the same time.
Xie Chiyuan faced the magician again. The magician looked like he had been beaten up, with an ugly scar crawling across his exaggerated clown face.
A young man stepped out from behind the magician.
Xie Chiyuan met his gaze, but he had no recollection of the encounter. He could only guess: "D-sequence aberration variant?"
The Magician is the D series, and this person is probably similar to the Magician.
The young man smiled slightly, his gentle face displaying an innocent expression. But the magician who was being beaten knew that the gentler his smile, the harder he would strike.
"He's not in the same order as me."
The magician bluntly exposed the young man's true colors: "He is A06 mutant. If you want to kill him, you won't have many chances."
Upon hearing this, Xie Chiyuan's eyes darkened.
There is very little recorded information about variant A06. This variant rarely goes out, and Xie Chiyuan had never met it before.
Are you alone?
The young man's voice was gentle as he asked Xie Chiyuan, "You lost him?"
Xie Chiyuan did not answer.
The atmosphere here is strange. On the other side, Yu An left a note for Pei Si and got separated from the group.
There are many eyes in the old city.
Some were watching Xie Chiyuan, some had just set their sights on Pei Si, but only Yu An—
No one dared to stare at him.
She navigated through road after road, like a nimble kitten wandering along a narrow path, silently searching for someone.
There are some inconspicuous little mushrooms by the roadside.
Yu An, with her sharp eyes, spotted it and squatted down to ask, "Have you seen a white mushroom? Can you help me find it?"
Before they could even finish talking about finding the white mushrooms, the zombies roaming the city came looking for them.
The good news is that these zombies aren't ordinary zombies; they have consciousness.
The bad news is—
Yu An felt like they were staring at her head.
Chapter 24
The zombies have crystal cores in their heads; Yu An had seen them a few days ago.
However, he hadn't seen many zombies killing each other. After all, when he first came to the village to rob the big boss, he had at most been beaten up by other zombies.
What do you want to do?
Yu An took two steps back, his eyes warily fixed on the group of zombies.
The zombies were all filthy and disheveled to varying degrees, so a clean little zombie like Yu An was an anomaly at first glance.
The horde of zombies was still closing in, and there were plenty of other zombies on the street. But none of the other zombies were staring at Yu An's head; only this group was.
Yu Anxin knew something was wrong, so he stopped talking and ran away.
Footsteps pounded loudly.
Yu An didn't know the route and was running entirely on instinct.
The horde of zombies pursued relentlessly from behind. A piercing howl shattered the silence, and more and more zombies appeared along the way.
Yu An hadn't been this scared in a long time.
"thump--"
Someone had piled up logs on the floor, and the alley was dimly lit, so Yu An ran in and fell face down.
His eyes were red from the pain, and he was making sucking noises.
"Hello."
Just as the zombies behind them were about to catch up, a soft voice rang out from the front of the path: "Are you human?"
Yu An got up, covered his nose, and said yes.
The next second.
A young boy skillfully maneuvered around the logs on the ground and pulled him forward, saying, "Come here, this is for dealing with zombies."
