Ge Xiu frowned in confusion, and looked down at the cigarette caught between Xie Shili's fingers.
He raised his eyes, his eyes fell on the other's lips.
Xie Shili's lips are very thin, and the lines of the lip arches are neat and sharp, and there is a cold sense of oppression when he is not smiling.
Ge Xiu was lost in thought for a moment.
So... That slender, long, slender thing that was lit at one end wasn't meant to be eaten
But to taste the smoke it releases when it ignites
However, the time just now was too short, and it was over before he could taste anything.
Ge Xiu's eyes focused on the smoke that had not dissipated in the car window. He tentatively opened his mouth and swallowed a relatively solid cloud of smoke in his mouth - but there was no smell.
Xie Shili chuckled lightly.
He snuffed out the cigarette butt and threw it out the window.
- He is not addicted to smoking, but this time it was just a whim.
Xie Shili turned to look at Ge Xiu, raised his hand and pinched his bulging cheek.
The young man's bulging cheeks were instantly deflated.
Gossiu: "..."
He looked at Xie Shili expressionlessly, bit the finger that the other party handed in front of him, and began to grit his teeth with the other's phalanx.
Xie Shili curled the corners of his lips, and the gloomy anger between his eyebrows dissipated a little.
Just now, his mind was shrouded in the haze from the past - hatred, sadness, anger, gathered into a thick cloud, occupying all his thoughts.
Just like when he was betrayed and fled wounded.
Those familiar faces were traced over and over again in his heart, almost deeply engraved in his mind.
Xie Shili was thinking about revenge all the time.
According to the normal logic of the development of things, he will definitely return to the base full of violence and anger after he can recover, and make all those who betrayed him pay the price.
but…
During this process, a variable appeared that Xie Shili did not expect.
A zombie.
The doomsday has destroyed the lives of all mankind.
They lost their daily life, and the sense of security they should have disappeared.
Human life is like ants, crushed mercilessly. Everyone is struggling to survive under difficult circumstances. The stable and peaceful life before the end of the day seems to be just a phantom in a dream. As if in a lifetime, the sense of unreality enveloped every survivor. They were like rootless duckweeds, unable to find any sense of existence to rely on.
Surprisingly, Xie Shili felt the most realistic period of time when he was with zombies.
He began to think less and less of what happened before he met each other.
That kind of extremely ordinary, undisturbed, almost peaceful life made Xie Shili indulge in it uncontrollably.
night.
The bonfire burned in the growing darkness.
The young man sat by the bonfire with his duffel bag in his arms, seriously stuffing the spar into his mouth, his pale face turned into a light crimson, and the light gray pupils reflected the jumping flames.
Xie Shili sat aside and used a knife to pry open a can.
early morning.
The mist spread among the grass, and the sky and the earth fell into a haze.
Xie Shili opened his eyes.
Four zombies patrolled in the distance, faithfully guarding the grass.
Ge Xiu was lying on the side with his arms in his arms. Even in his sleep, he did not forget to bite his shoulder tightly through his clothes and not let go.
And that long road trip that alternated between day and night.
Xie Shili gradually got used to it, gradually became addicted, and could not extricate himself.
As the space occupied by revenge in Xie Shili's mind became smaller and smaller, the other party's sense of existence became stronger and stronger.
I don't know when it started, the high-level zombie that "kidnapped" him gradually, little by little, caught his sight, and then unknowingly occupied his thoughts and minds - in the end, Xie Shili found that, He couldn't even take his eyes off the other person.
He was like a traveler who was dying from lack of water.
Even if he knew that he was drinking poison to quench his thirst, he still couldn't stop.
Just when he thought that such a time could go on indefinitely, the shadow of his past struck again.
The dark and malicious thoughts were stirred up like mud by the turbulent currents, and engulfed his reason and thoughts in an instant - everything he had experienced once again emerged vividly, and the wounds that never healed once again poured out thick blood.
Some things must end.
but…
Xie Shili turned his head to look at Ge Xiu sitting in the co-pilot, his eyes softened slightly unconsciously.
—At least he knew the path he was going to take next.
If according to what he once conceived, if the revenge is successful, Xie Shili will not continue to stay in the place he once founded and betrayed ruthlessly. The previous enthusiasm and compassion have been exhausted, and the only thing left is endless indifference. and exhausted, he would leave the base and embark on a journey alone that ends in his own death.
And now...
Xie Shili discovered unexpectedly that, before he knew it, another figure had been added to his blueprint.
Even at the end, the other party finally did not endure the temptation of the food, and really bit down one day.
Xie Shili felt that he was not unacceptable.
The two zombies roamed the world, and it seemed a little romantic to think of it.
No matter what, he will not be lonely in the next journey.
Xie Shili leaned over and placed a kiss on Ge Xiu's hair: "I'll be back soon."
He opened the door and walked out.
The base wall in the distance was shining brightly in the sun, Xie Shili narrowed his eyes slightly, and the expression on his face was extraordinarily calm, as if he had let go of all impetuousness and doubts.
Xie Shili walked towards the base.
·
Dawn Human Survivor Base.
Outside the wall is a layer of barbed wire, with some dried and rotten flesh and blood hanging on it. Obviously, every once in a while, a special team will be sent in the city to clean up the zombies close to the wall to ensure that at least one kilometer around is a safe area. .
A lanky, tall man was in charge of guarding and quarantine.
In the drowsiness, he saw a person approaching from a distance outside the sentry.
I didn't drive, I walked alone on a spacious and flat road.
It should be an ability user. In this era, without any self-defense skills, it is impossible to survive alone for so long.
However, with the emergence of mutant zombies, it has become more and more difficult for the former loners to survive, so they also began to seek shelter from large bases or forces.
This week alone, he has received at least seven or eight such people.
Soon, the figure came to the outpost.
The tall and thin man stood up lazily, opened the registration booklet on the table, and asked without raising his head:
"name?"
The man's voice was low and magnetic: "Xie Shili."
This name... how a bit familiar.
The tall and thin man was slightly startled, and raised his head subconsciously.
But the question that has become a routine and is well-known in his heart, but before he realizes it, he has already blurted out naturally:
"… Intention to visit?"
The moment he saw the person coming, the tall and thin man opened his eyes in disbelief, and the expression on his face was frightened and shocked, as if he saw a ghost crawling back from the depths of hell in the daytime.
"Meet an old friend." Xie Shili replied calmly.

in the car.
Ge Xiu ate the whole bag of spar.
He threw the empty bag onto the back seat and tugged another bag onto his lap.
Just as Ge Xiu was trying to unzip the bag, he suddenly froze slightly, as if he had thought of something.
After a few seconds of expressionless contemplation, he reached out to open the car's storage compartment and pulled out the flat half-pack of cigarettes.
Gossiu pulled out a cigarette.
After looking at it carefully for a while, he stuffed the cigarette into his mouth and began to chew it carefully.
The more he chewed, the tighter his brows became.
Finally, Ge Xiu spit out the chewed tobacco residue in his mouth with a disgusting expression on his face.
- Totally not tasty.
But the smoke he inhaled in his mouth didn't seem to have any taste...
Could it be that…
Is the problem in the middle
Ge Xiu's drooping brows flashed across Xie Shili's mind.
He was thoughtful.
Try it next time.
Anyway, every part of the reserve grain is his, so it's not too much to taste anywhere, right
The author has something to say: Seeing that Ge Xiu was damaged a little bit.
