Volume 3 Chapter 72 The results of the research
After cooking the porridge, Shao Qing slept for a whole day. From sunrise to sunset, she slept until midnight before she woke up. When she stretched her figure, she could hear her own bones cracking.
All the exhaustion was driven away. It felt good. Shao Qing opened the door and was about to wash her face. It was midnight, but if she were to try to sleep again, she would definitely not fall asleep.
As soon as she walked to the sink, Shao Qing saw Er Dai holding his hands on the sink, looking at himself in the mirror, expressionless.
Shao Qing sometimes thought that sometimes people should be a little confused. Only by closing one eye can they have a happier life.
But the person who didn’t want to be confused became Fu Jingshen. He raised his head and glanced at Shao Qing, then said, “When did you find out?”
“I know you too well, so I noticed something was wrong from the beginning.” Shao Qing was not ready to pretend to be confused anymore. She said faintly: “At the beginning, I couldn’t confirm it. After being together for such a long time, there will always be some details exposed. When did you recover?”
“The last breakthrough. At that time, I felt like I had a long, long dream. In the dream, I watched myself getting to know you and experienced everything like a bystander.” Fu Jingshen said softly, “That feeling was very strange. But it’s also very good.”
Shao Qing touched her body, found her cigarette case, took the last cigarette out of it, and lit it. The diffused smoke blurred her facial features, covered her expression, even her voice. It all became a little ethereal: “If you want to leave, tell me in advance, so I’m prepared.”
There was something that Shao Qing didn’t say…that she would be ready to build a good chain to lock him up if he decided to leave.
If it was a year ago, she would probably choose to let him go. After all, a twisted melon is not sweet, but a year later, even if she broke Fu Jingshen’s legs and locked him up, she would not let him go.
Even if the melon is bitter, she will taste it slowly, bite it carefully, and eat it bit by bit.
“I won’t leave!” Fu Jingshen subconsciously said. After he finished speaking, he was stunned for a while, then slowly continued: “I haven’t fully recovered. At night, I will recover my memory. During the day, I will become Er Dai again.”
“En…” Shao Qing responded softly, with a slight discomfort in her voice.
It seems that the construction of the chain has to be done in advance, otherwise she doesn’t know when this person will run away. It would be more reassuring to lock him up.
In those stories, those nonsense about “I love you, so I will let you go, as long as you are happy”, were all nonsense. All c**p about being selfless and suffering a single, painful life.
Shao Qing doesn’t want to be a good person, she just needs to be selfish. Even if Fu Jingshen will hate her in the future, it doesn’t matter.
This is probably what marital harmony is. After being with a pervert for a long time, one’s thoughts will really become perverted. It is all Yan Qiyue’s fault Shao Qing thought shamelessly.
Fu Jingshen held back for a long time before slowly saying, “Er Dai loves you.” His face was a little thin. His confession made him swallow his saliva back.
The meaning of this sentence was actually, Er Dai loves you, and Er Dai and I are the same person, so I love you too, so I will not leave.
But when it was heard by Shao Qing’s ears, it became, “Er Dai loves you. I haven’t recovered yet, so I won’t leave. I will talk about it when I recover.”
Shao Qing was very unhappy. She nodded and spit out a smoke ring, ready to go back to build a strong, long chain for use.
In the middle of the night, Shao Qing sat in her room, thinking about where to lock people up.
After dawn, Shao Qing went out to make porridge, a light and delicate multigrain porridge. A bowl of porridge in the morning would be good for the stomach.
After cooking the porridge, she put the porridge on the table so that people who got up could eat it as long as they saw it.
Then she poured some into a little dish and took it to give to Yan Qiyue. When Shao Qing arrived, Yan Qiyue and Yin Ye were dissecting the corpse together. The corpse was completely unrecognizable.
There were piles of discarded corpses on the ground beside them.
Shao Qing put the porridge on the table, then shouted: “Come and eat first. Continue after eating.”
She cleaned out the unwanted corpses on the ground to make the strange smell in the air become a little weaker.
The two men looked very tired. After hearing Shao Qing’s greetings, they washed their hands and walked over. They each had a bowl of porridge with small pickles and began to eat.
Although there were still a lot of corpses beside them and they had just completed an autopsy of one of them, the two of them were not affected at all and ate with relish.
After Shao Qing packed up, she sat next to them and watched them eat. She asked from time to time: “How’s the research?”
“I have a clue.” Yan Qiyue said softly, “One of the dead bodies was created.”
“It’s just like how I transformed myself at the beginning.” Yin Ye interjected: “But the other party was even more ruthless. He seems to have a way to create advanced zombies and zombie beasts. The upper part of the zombie is transplanted to the zombie beast, so this modified thing has the powerful body of the beast and the wisdom of the advanced zombie at the same time. However, the success rate should not be very high, otherwise it will really be against the heavens. “
“We didn’t find out the method he used to make the zombies. We just discovered that the crystal nuclei in the bodies of these corpses were smaller than the average high-rank zombies and there were impurities in them. This means that this transformation is not normal for high-rank zombies. The advantage is that he can make a lot.” Yan Qiyue frowned: “I just don’t know if there are restrictions. If the restrictions are not large, then it will be really troublesome.”
That is indeed troublesome. It is equivalent to having a machine that continuously produces high-rank zombies. He doesn’t need to pamper the zombies at all, because he can create it again if it is dead.
Just like the legendary necromancer.
Shao Qing said calmly: “It is impossible to have no restrictions. Otherwise, there will be more than a handful of them to rob and kill us. If there are no restrictions, would it not be against the heavens? The world is like this. The stronger the limit, the greater the power, so I don’t think we need to worry too much about this one.”
The two men nodded, then Yan Qiyue said again: “Based on our previous observations, once a zombie has reached a certain point, they can really awaken themselves. Just like those that person created, they should all have their own memories. No matter their appearance or their minds, they are no different from ordinary human beings. I think we need to alert the major bases. If that person is really ambitious, he may act on each survivor base.”
“Well, I’ll send the news out in a while.” Shao Qing said calmly: “The most important thing is our own strength. I went to check it before. The thing planted in the yard seems to be ready. Everyone’s strength has stopped at their current strength for a long time. It’s time to advance.”
The weird plant that looked like a heart was not far from maturity. She was separated from it, but she can still feel from a long distance that it was emitting surging energy fluctuations.
In the past, when she was idle, Shao Qing liked to go there, stretch out a vine and insert it into the red soil. She would absorb energy, while chatting with people.
So she would go over and take a look at it from time to time. After such a long time, this thing was finally about to mature. She will study how to use it, then improve everyone’s strength.
Strength is the best guarantee.
When they finished eating, it suddenly started to rain outside. Shao Qing didn’t leave. She sat by the window to watch them work, and occasionally looked up outside.
The rainwater after the end of the world looked very dirty in color and was not drinkable. It contained many harmful substances and zombie poison.
After all, many corpses decompose and pollute the water source. When the evaporated water vapor becomes rainwater, it absorbs the dirt in the air, so rainwater can be said to be the dirtiest thing now.
Fortunately, even after the end of the world, weather like rain and snow has become less and less. After all, sun was rare, not to mention the steaming water vapor.
Shao Qing lay on the windowsill and looked at the scene outside. Although Jiangcheng was not big, it was empty everywhere. After all, there were few living people in Jiangcheng, and most of them were zombies.
Zombies were not like human beings. A family needed a room to live in, to be regular and harmonious. On the other hand, zombies usually scurry around the streets. Sometimes Yin Ye would instruct those zombies to carry cleaning tools and go to the streets to clean up.
When it rains, there are not many zombies. It would be sparse, them walking up and down the street without a trace of anger.
The Shao Qing before would have never thought that one day, she would stay away from human society and live with a group of zombies, and live in harmony.
But when this day came, she didn’t feel uncomfortable in her heart. Instead, she was very comfortable. If she was only one person, she would probably be lonely, but her relatives and her friends were all here.
“When everything is over, let’s hold the wedding in Jiangcheng. We’ll invite some friends to come. We’ll let the news come out.” Shao Qing supported her chin and said.
No one knows what the future will be like, whether the end of the world will worsen, or whether it will get better step by step, but people should always have hope in life. There is a saying that is very good. If there is no dream, then what’s the difference between you and a salted fish?
When marriage was brought up, Yan Qiyue became much gentler. Of course, this gentleness referred to his expression and voice, not the movements in his hands.
“If it’s marriage, we don’t need to call too many people. A crowd is too noisy. Even if you call them, most people may not dare come.” He said softly. In fact, what is missing between them was just a ceremony. Except for this ceremony, they were no different from husband and wife.
