The corpse of the mother-in-law in front of him didn't realize the danger. He couldn't catch Tang Ling for a while, and greedily stuffed the remaining steel-toothed gophers into his mouth.
"Don't eat it!" Tang Ling roared. After all, his raised hand did not turn into a fist and smash the corpse in front of him. Instead, he watched his mother-in-law stuffing raw rat meat into her mouth, feeling extremely sad and grabbed it. The steel-toothed gopher passed through its hands and was thrown aside.
"Woo!" After Tang Ling took away the food, the mother-in-law corpse became even more angry and let out an even harsher roar. The speed of the gathered corpses suddenly increased by three points.
"Mother-in-law" Tang Ling looked at the mother-in-law with blood-stained face in front of him and wanted to cry bitterly. Even a low and aggrieved call could not bring back the relatives in front of him.
But he couldn't do the so-called wisest thing, which was to kill the corpse in front of him.
He even just wanted to hug it tightly, wipe away the blood from the corners of its mouth, and tidy up its messy and dirty clothes.
Finally, Tang Ling just threw it away. At that moment, he quickly wiped its bloody face with his hand, then turned around and ran away.
Apart from running away, Tang Ling had no choice but to keep his mother-in-law from 'living'. Even if it's just a corpse.
But the scary thing is that Tang Ling has no way to get rid of this corpse man.
How could it easily give up the food in front of it after discovering a living person? Perhaps because it lost half of its body, its speed was not lagging behind that of Tang Ling after his transformation.
Tang Ling ran like crazy, completely ignoring the countless dangers that would be more terrifying than the zombies if he went further into the wilderness.
"Let me die. Let me die if a reasonable thing happens. In this way, I will no longer hate myself for not being able to complete my revenge." In the messy pain, there was only this thought left in Tang Ling's mind .
Countless trees that were hit and thorns that were trampled left tiny wounds on his body, but he didn't even notice.
But is there an end to despair
Tang Ling stopped.
He watched with difficulty as a group of people suddenly appeared in the forest in front of him.
Looking at their ragged clothes and scars on their bodies, their eyes were filled with strange excitement and hope.
Walking in the front were a few children.
When a 'monster' like Tang Ling, who was full of muscles, whose height and body shape were completely beyond the scope of normal people, and with large black blood stains on his body, suddenly appeared in front of the group of people, they stopped in fear and shock.
'Wanderers', Tang Ling never expected to meet them at this time!
In fact, Tang Ling was no stranger to 'wanderers'. When the settlement still existed, it would accept hundreds of such people every year.
In Tang Ling's limited knowledge of the world, if there were anyone who was worse off than the people in the settlement, it was undoubtedly these 'wanderers' who had no fixed abode and could only live in groups in the dangerous countryside.
The greatest wish of these people is that there is a settlement around the safe zone that can accept them, but this wish is often difficult to realize.
These 'wanderers' in front of them were so excited, no doubt because they were finally approaching Safety Zone No. 17.
But how do they know? The settlement outside Safety Zone 17 has long turned into hell!
The encounter was so unexpected! Before Tang Ling had time to think about it, another corpse man's roar came from behind.
It's my mother-in-law!
Tang Ling subconsciously dodged and avoided its attack.
There is no doubt that when Tang Ling got up from the ground, the group of people also discovered the corpse at the same time. The 'mother-in-law' opposite saw so much food and rushed towards the crowd without any hesitation.
"It's the Corpse Man! Everyone, prepare to fight!"
"Women and children, stand in the middle."
"Pull the kid in front back."
The wanderers immediately entered a state of combat readiness. Facing the existence of the corpse man, no living person could easily face it, even if there was only one.
But 'Mother-in-Law' was much faster than the other zombies. Before these wanderers could get ready, she flew to a distance of less than ten meters away from them in the blink of an eye.
The children who were originally in front seemed a little confused, and the adults who wanted to pull them back were obviously not as fast as the 'mother-in-law'.
According to Tang Ling's precise and instinctive judgment, the 'mother-in-law' had enough time to bite at least one child before they caught the child.
"Brother." At this time, a little girl with brown hair and freckles who looked a little dirty pulled the little boy next to her nervously and fearfully.
The boy seemed to burst out with infinite courage because of this voice. He suddenly stood in front of the little girl and opened his hands.
"No!" A woman in the crowd shouted in despair.
Tang Ling moved, and with a painful roar, he stood in front of the little brother and sister, grabbed the 'mother-in-law', and then pushed it away hard.
'Mother-in-law' fell down in the grass not far away and tried hard to get up, but her broken body seemed not so flexible.
"Kill this corpse."
"Hurry up, there might be more zombies nearby."
People didn't have time to think about why the 'weirdo' in front of them would help them. When the biggest crisis was over, they naturally wanted to kill the corpse.
"Stop!" Tang Ling suddenly turned around and looked at the group of homeless people in front of him indifferently. No one knew the pain in his heart. Even at this moment, he couldn't help but want to help his mother-in-law.
Because the person in front of him is the mother-in-law who raised him since he was a child.
The people holding crude weapons were suddenly stunned by Tang Ling's voice and appearance, and stopped moving in a daze.
"I'll do it." Tang Ling's voice was cold and his expression was calm.
All this needed to end, and only Tang Ling knew that the crisis in front of him was not the 'mother-in-law', but the crowd of corpses that were quickly gathering here.
Tang Ling didn't know whether the lives of others should be borne by him. He just couldn't watch the little brother and sister behind him die like this.
Because, Tang Ling seemed to see himself and his sister in them.
The sunset of the seat belt, that little body was behind him, pulling on the corner of his clothes.
"Brother, is it dangerous to go too far?"
"Are you afraid?"
"Don't be afraid, because my brother will protect me."
Yes, protect her, just like the little brother just now. Just desperate hatred boiled in Tang Ling's heart, and he remembered!
Surrounded by corpses, those helpless eyes, that last "brother"
Tang Ling clenched his fists and walked towards his mother-in-law who was still struggling to get up.
One step, two steps
The sky is turbulent, but the footsteps are broken.
If gathering and dispersing are impermanent and ultimately invisible, why bother leaving traces in the heart
Can we only be completely reborn in the black flames of hatred
