I Attacked Because I Was Afraid Of Death

Chapter 47: Doomsday

Views:

The door slammed shut behind the pool core.

This town is big, and this hall is also big, and you can see the whole scene at a glance after entering.

The tables and chairs were slanted on the ground, and the dark brown blood stains dried up on the ground. Even if you didn't participate, you could imagine the fierce battle that broke out here.

Chi Xin has never experienced the day when the end of the world broke out. Looking at this scene, I imagined the hearts of those who watched their familiar peaceful life being torn apart by hell.

Maybe it was a Sunday, and they were gathered in this little chapel, praying for their happy lives.

Maybe some of them are holding a newborn baby, expecting the Lord to baptize him.

"Huo Du, there are a lot of people here who believe in this, and if you go further west, there will be people who believe in Ares." Jing Xiubai's sharp eyes glanced around, "It's clean. ."

Clean means that there are no zombies in this space.

"What should we do now, wait here for the zombies to disperse?" Yu Xiang asked.

Outside the thick and sturdy carved gate, the voices of the zombies screaming and scratching were extremely dull, saying that this hall was safe.

"Unless they can fly, of course, maybe..."

"you shut up!"

Including Chi Xin, someone immediately scolded Yu Xiang when he started talking about it.

Yu Xiang was so frightened that he quickly made a zipper action on his mouth with his hand, and blinked innocently.

"You can save your words, Great Prophet." Jiang Yunyun supported his forehead, showing a posture that he was about to faint, "No one thinks you can talk when you talk."

Yu Xiang grievously leaned towards Chi Xin, who wrinkled his nose and left the place.

‌In Yu Xiang's grief-stricken look, next to Jing Xiubai, "Will you really enter?"

"Although Yu Xiang's words are credible, they do." Jing Xiubai said, squatting down and picking up a box of empty cans, "The people in the town seemed to use this place as a temporary refuge before. Staying there, safety can be guaranteed.”

Looking at the pool core, there were indeed many unpacked cans and bags of packaged food on the ground.

"Anyway, they also entered, just in time to have a rest." Yu Xiang took back the miserable watch, put the two stools together, and sat on it with his legs crossed, "It's been a long time. It feels strangely new not to sit in the building."

His remarks really changed a few speechless eyes.

A few people passed by, as if they were familiar with Yu Xiang's tune, they also went to control him, and scattered around this small hall to check.

Chi Xin looked at Jiang Yun and wiped the dirt on the face of the suffering God with his hands.

"Do you believe in Huo Du?" He went over and squinted his eyes as the sunlight shot into his face from the window.

"Xin." Jiang Xun smiled and shook his head, "My mother said before that these gods who can incarnate in the human world can listen to the prayers of the world. I thought if he really If he can see, let him see more clearly."

Chi Xin was slightly stunned.

Looking at Jiang Yunyun's serious and quiet profile, he suddenly felt that it was unreasonable to be the heroine.

"Are you afraid?"

A question was asked after passing through his brain. Seeing Jiang Yun's gaze, Chi Xin scratched his cheek in annoyance and added, "I mean, why are you wandering with the two of them? , to pursue the truth and serum that know if it exists? In case..."

 I would like to ask, what should you do if you find that everything is empty, there is no serum, and there is no vaccine

However, I felt that in front of people who were doing this seriously, I should throw this basin of cold water on me, and I got stuck at random, pursed my lips and swallowed it back.

Jiang Yunyun's face was a little surprised, but her always gentle expression didn't mean to blame, "Xinxin, are you afraid too?"

Chi Xin opened his mouth and did not answer the question.

A slender hand held the hand that consciously made a fist, and gently stretched it out and held it in the palm of the hand.

Chi Xin raised his eyes and saw Jiang Yun's peaceful smile.

"Actually, Yu Xiang and I are both following Brother Jing. He is the only one who knows the laboratory." Jiang Yun said in a soft voice, "What will happen in the end? In fact, I too Yes, but that's the best hope right now, isn't it?"

Chi Xin knows that according to the inertia of the play, the protagonist group will definitely get the desired result, but as the players in the game, they do not know all this.

"If you want to say, Yu Xiang is the one who is most likely to follow us." Jiang Yun smiled and looked at Yu Xiang who was fumbling in the distance, "He is the young master of the Yu family, even if At the end of the world, if he wants to return to the base, he will be able to live without food and clothing for the rest of his life, and now he is wandering around the world, all for the sake of a possible hope."

Their identities are not described in such detail in the movie, Chi Xin hesitated for a while before saying, "Yu Xiang's head is so big."

"What, what?" Yu Xiang's other things worked, but Chi Xin grabbed his own name quite a bit, so he ran over immediately, "Are you talking about me being handsome behind your back? "

"Fuck you," the two girls said together.

They all looked at each other and laughed.

"You guys, right?" Yu Xiang lowered his face.

Chi Xin shook his head with a smile, and with a glance, he looked at the piano on the side.

The arc of laughter that had just appeared disappeared from the corner of his mouth again.

Jiang Yunyun followed his line of sight and also looked at the piano, and said "Huh" in surprise, "Xinxin, can you play it?"

This question also attracted Jing Xiubai, who was checking the windows.

"Chi Xin, you are hiding your secrets." Yu Xiang whistled, "How many skills do we know about you?"

"This skill is useless in the end times." Chi Xin was next to this old and dilapidated piano, and stretched out his fingertips to lightly touch the dust on top of it.

It seems that during the battle, someone smashed on this piano, and its top was sunken in, even exposing the strings inside.

"Can it really play?" Jiang Yunyun asked softly.

The core did not answer.

 Dropped his eyes, his slender eyelashes cast a quiet arc on his fair face.

 stretched out his slender, white fingers and pressed it softly on one of the keys.

"Do."

"It's a little noisy, but I can play." Chi Xin said.

‌Pick up the windbreaker and was about to sit down when Jing Xiubai stopped him and wiped the stool clean.

"So people who love cleanliness, it doesn't make sense to look at the piano and change it."

Seeing Chi Xin's gaze, Jing Xiubai's face stiffened and he stretched out his hand to push the bridge of his nose. After pushing for a while, he put it down again stiffly.

"Xiu Bai, how long has it been, are you not used to life without glasses?" Yu Xiang asked.

Jing Xiubai ignored him at all, made a "please gesture" to the piano, and turned behind Chi Xin.

Yu Xiang found that when he left Chi Xin's sight, his earlobes and neck turned red.

Jing Xiubai glanced at him coldly.

Chi Xin didn't pay attention to what was going on behind him, so he took out a piece of paper, carefully wiped the keys, and stepped on the pedals to tune a few notes.

"This posture is definitely professional." Yu Xiang said.

Jing Xiubai: "You understand again?"

Yu Xiang: "I understand. When I was a child, my father invited three internationally renowned pianists to be my teachers, and they were all mad at me, but I have seen them play."

Yu Xiang didn't lie, what he saw was indeed a very professional operation.

Jiang Yunyun: "Shh."

Both men fell silent.

"Ding."

A crisp piano sounded.

Chi Xin closed his eyes slightly, his fingers fluttered like butterfly wings, and a very accurate "Wedding in a Dream" flowed in the hall.

The quiet and beautiful tunes are matched with the sympathetic face of the Virgin above. A beam of light is mixed with colors, and the broken glass shines directly on the body, giving this scene a beautiful color.

Those who played and those who listened were fascinated by the rare tune in the last days, and until the end of the chapter, no one made a sound.

Just when they thought this was the end, Chi Xin suddenly turned around.

"Wedding in a Dream" and then, the prelude of "Steel Torrent Into Song" resounded.

This tragic and powerful tune was played on the piano in the ruins, and the flaw of perfection has become a complement in sense.

Life is supposed to go against the flow like this.

As Chi Xin's fingers fell, the piano keys let out a mournful groan, and the unexpected performance came to an end.

It's called doomsday.

The three who were listeners hadn't spoken for a long time.

Chi Xin didn't speak either. This physical exhaustion was worth mentioning, but he felt a sense of trance just recovering from a serious illness.

 slightly panting, feeling immersed in the state of mind, immersed in the talent just now, a powerful force surged out of the heart, and suddenly burst the dyke like a torrent, smashing the previous shallow security.

"Crack, snap."

Jing Xiubai's applause woke the other two, and also Chi Xin.

"Excellent Xinxin." Jiang Yun's face turned red with excitement, "You can play such a broken piano like this, you probably used to be a professional, right?"

"Absolutely right." Yu Xiang said affirmatively, "I have never eaten pork, but I have seen pigs running. The level of the pool core is much worse than the three teachers I was angry with at the time."

Professional level

Chi Xin smiled, "Follow my mother's lessons."

"Your mother... is she an internationally renowned pianist?" Several people were stunned.

Chi Xin smiled and said something.

The three looked at each other.

They suddenly discovered that someone actually knew nothing about the pool core.

‌What was it like before

Before the end of the world, what kind of life did you lead

They tried hard to think, but the earliest memory of Chi Xin seems to be stuck on the day when the zombies besieged the city. He took Jing Xiubai and jumped off the city wall, kicking the head of the high-level zombie with one kick. .

Maybe the figure at that moment was too strong, so all the time before it was diluted.

It is terrifyingly strong, and there are many people who know it. These are the halo of today's body, but how exactly it became what it is now, no one knows.

Chi Xin knew all about the complicated sequence of the protagonist group, and got up from his seat as if he was normal.

That night, they stayed in this small hall for the night.

Jing Xiubai checked around before and determined that there was no potential safety hazard. The zombies gathered outside the house were all low-level zombies.

They rarely slept in the tent, but took out a few sleeping bags and placed them on the ground.

Jiang Yunyun slept next to Chi Xin. In the middle of the night, Chi Xin moved and woke up when he was about to get out of the sleeping bag.

‌Blinking sleepy eyes: "Xinxin?"

"It's okay, go to sleep." Chi Xin patted his head, "I'm going to change shifts."

"Oh." Jiang  Yun showed a relieved look, and fell asleep again.

 There is nothing to be afraid of when there is a core.

Chi Xin stood up, moved his hands and feet briefly, and raised his eyes to meet the eyes of Jing Xiubai, who was on duty.

He was sitting on the window sill, and he should have been observing the shape of the outside, watching the pool core rise, and with his legs stretched, he jumped off the window sill.

"Are you tired?" he said softly, "I'll be at dawn tonight, go back to sleep."

"Stop it. If you fall asleep in my car during the day, I can explain it clearly." Chi Xin said.

Jing Xiubai was helpless.

"It's over, hurry up." Chi Xin drove him back into the sleeping bag like a duck.

When Chi Xin turned around, he opened his pretended closed eyes again.

He watched the pool core return to the position of the piano, and wiped the whole body clean little by little, as if saying goodbye to the past.

He watched quietly for a while, then closed his eyes.

Chi Xin wiped the piano, hesitated when he got up, and wiped the statue of God beside him.

Early the next morning, a few people got up on time, and after packing their clothes, they found the hall and began to search for information in the town.

"It looks like someone has been here."

Yu Xiang hid under the shelf of the convenience store, and there was only one shelf separated from him by a stiff zombie.

Jiang Yunyun frowned and put the few remaining bars of soap into the space.

At this moment, the sound of footsteps was heard, someone pushed open the door of the convenience store, and the wandering clerk shouted a zombie and rushed towards the person.

However, the sound of it was not finished, and it was stuck in his throat forever.

Chi Xin pulled out the knife inserted in the zombie's brain, kicked it aside at will, and looked at the two people squatting at the bottom, "Are you waiting for the New Year here?"

Yu Xiang smiled shyly, "That's why I find it strange that such a big convenience store is actually empty, with nothing left."

"What's so strange about this, either the people from the town took them with them before they evacuated, or there were other survivors who passed by." Chi Xin thought this was very common, and waved to the two of them, "Nothing. Let's get out of here."

"What about Xiu Bai?" Yu Xiang asked.

Chi Xin looked left and right, "Isn't he with you?"

Several people shook their heads at the same time.

When they walked out of the convenience store and crossed a street, they saw something unusual.

Several zombies formed a circle, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't break through the blue ice wall in front of them.

Jing Xiubai squatted behind the ice wall and was screeching to know what he was doing.

Chi Xin and Yu Xiang raised the silencer/sound/hand/gun to get rid of these zombies, and surrounded them curiously.

 See Jing Xiubai squatting in front of a car, struggling to move the tires, and then got some oil.

Chi Xin was speechless, "If this can be used, will it stay here for you? Hurry up and get up."

Jing Xiubai raised his face, and there was a deep sense of loss on his expressionless face.

Chi Xin also knew how he saw it, and was so amused that he almost laughed, and quickly coughed, "It's over, it means there is a bigger city ahead. ? We're going there to find a car."

Jing Xiubai stood up.

He looked at the two new locomotives that appeared, and let out a sigh of resignation.

He consciously took his girlfriend's helmet and shrunk his tall figure on the back seat.

The pool core started the accelerator, and before the zombies were attracted, he said loudly, "Let's go—"

As before, the two locomotives galloped through the streets of the town, heading towards the sunset.

Beyond this town is the western frontier.

‌‌This place, Chi Xin deeply realized ‌, what Yu Xiang's sentence "the shortest is two or three hours' drive" means.

Crossing provincial boundaries, Chi Xin felt as if he had entered another world.

In the small town before, the terrain style was relatively close to the Central Plains, but after crossing that line, there were seemingly endless national roads and the deserted Gobi on both sides of the road.

The sun gets bigger the further west you go, especially when it’s close to dusk, the orange-red sunlight scorches the whole land, and the feeling of a few people running on it is so insignificant.

"Chixin, your tires are smoking again, stop and rest for a while!"

From a distance, Yu Xiang shouted.

Chi Xin deftly braked on the side of the road, took off his helmet and wiped off the sweat.

The huge round sun seemed to be close at hand, making his face a bright red.

"Let's eat something." Jiang Yun suggested.

They have been galloping all day to get on the road, and now they have not eaten.

"Let's have something to eat." Jing Xiubai also got out of the car, with the same weakness in his voice when he got out of the car, "The neighborhood is empty, the accommodation is safe, we have to hurry forward."

Several people agreed, and Jiang Yunjun took out the packaged buns and distributed them to everyone.

"Xiu Bai, how could your ability be fire?" Yu Xiang muttered, "Then you won't have to look for a lighter."

Jing Xiubai: "There is everything in a dream."

The sound of laughing and making noises was the same as usual, Chi Xin glanced at them and smiled lightly.

‌ Leaning on the locomotive and biting a bun, he turned his head to look at the huge sun.

Jing Xiubai stabbed Yu Xiang with his elbow and gestured to Chi Xin's side with his eyes.

Yu Xiang glanced at Jiang Yun again.

Jiang Yunyun gave them a contemptuous wink, adjusted his watch, and leaned gently beside the pool core.

"Xinxin, do you have no appetite today?"

"Okay." Chi Xinben wanted to perfunctory, and turned to look at the expressions of concern expressed by the three of them at the same level, stunned for a moment, and changed his mind, "I remembered the past. some things."

Now that he opened this mouth, several people were relieved, and Yu Xiang also leaned over, "What did you think of? Don't tell me it was the hard years when I was pressed to play the piano."

The pain on his face was so real that Chi Xin felt a little heavy just now and wanted to laugh again.

"You think too much, my family forced me to learn the piano." Chi Xin said, "I think all my friends in the circle can do it, so I want to learn it too."

"Lingtang's piano skills must have reached the pinnacle." There was a rare trace of nervousness in Jing Xiubai's calm expression.

Chi Xin smiled and shook his head.

‌My mother is indeed a well-known international pianist, but in this world, she is nothing.

"Chi Xin, your family's background must be good." Yu Xiang said, "Although you look too much like those eldest ladies, but you know these things, it is really a common family can raise them. of."

When Young Master Yu spoke, Chi Xin nodded, "It was wrong before."

 Since he said that, there must be a change in the middle, and several people were embarrassed to continue to ask.

On the contrary, the pool opened the chatterbox.

Maybe the sun is warm, maybe the wind is too quiet, maybe there are a few of them on the whole avenue, which brings a sense of loneliness to the emptiness.

‌Talked about some of my past.

"This kind of family always attracts some neuropathy, can you understand Yu Xiang?" Chi Xin said, "It's kidnapping, blackmailing, blackmailing, etc. every three days."

Yu Xiang was stunned, "I'm afraid... the life of a family like this is generally not as exciting as yours."

Chi Xin patted him, "Do you guys think I've always been calm?"

"Is that so?"

Every time, when faced with a crisis that others see as almost extinct, Chi Xin takes the lead, never letting go of any hope and bringing someone out of the crisis.

How can you do all this if you are calm.

Chi Xin looked at them, "Once when I was a child, the kidnappers who kidnapped me were very violent, because I was so scared that I stopped crying, and they broke my rib with one foot."

There was nothing in his tone, and his eyes didn't even waver. He talked about these cruel pasts as if it was another person's experience.

"No matter what happens in the future, I will no longer be able to show fear." Chi Xin continued, "I think, but I can't do it."

The air fell into silence, and there was a hot wind blowing among several people, and the black hair of the pool core brushed all over his face, obscuring the look in his eyes.

I know why, these secrets that I thought I was going to bring into the coffin, when facing these three people, I couldn't help but want to tell them.

Maybe it's because in the movie, they knew about their situation, but they didn't know what they were. It was okay to be a passerby who parted ways. Now that they want to go together, they also think about it. too distant.

Between knowing and feeling, after being integrated into this world, with a sense of entanglement, it is a wandering soul again.

The few words Chi Xin said were enough to reveal the complexity of their past experiences, and the three of them dared to ask questions. After a short break, they got into the car tacitly.

When a huge wind-eroded mushroom appeared in front of them, they resolutely chose it as a place to spend the night.

At this time, the dark blue night is advancing here through the horizon, and the sky is mixed with complex colors, rich and quiet.

The pool core stroked along the regular texture of the big mushroom, and gradually turned its back.

There is such a thing standing on the empty Gobi, which looks very scary.

Chi Xin was thinking carefully, hearing the sound of hurried footsteps beside him, and looked up, "What's wrong?"

"It's a rare opportunity, just this moment."

Jing Xiu Bai spoke lightly and quickly, as if he was deliberately avoiding the other two.

Chi Xin was at a loss, and he was pulled close to the root of the mushroom, looking at his rare and mysterious appearance, which also sparked a bit of interest.

"look."

Jing Xiu said whitely, spreading out his palms in front of ‌.

The scarce water molecules on the Gobi Desert fluttered and condensed in his palm, and an ice tree as tall as a forearm gradually took shape.

The branches of the tree are divided, the branches and leaves are delicate and complex, Jing Xiubai looks serious, and carves the work in his hand.

"This is?" Chi Xin blinked in surprise and wanted to reach out to touch it.

"‌Wait." Jing Xiubai moved outside, winked mysteriously at Chi Xin, then raised the small tree in the air and aimed it at the sky.

Chi Xin took a breath and slowly opened his eyes.

In ‌'s eyes, there is a small tree with a crystal body of ice, but a stream of fire.

And the dark blue of the horizon slowly covered the ‌, turning the leaves into half red and half blue color, like a gorgeous firework, gradually blooming in front of the eyes.

Fire tree silver flower.

The sky on the frontier was extremely dark, and when the small trees turned completely dark blue, it reflected the twinkling stars in the sky.

"So beautiful." Chi Xin murmured.

A proud look appeared on Jing Xiubai's face, and then he quickly put it away, he coughed lightly, pretending to be calm: "Hold out your hand, it's yours."

"Really?" Chi Xin stretched out his hand subconsciously, and looked at Xiaoshu, Jing Xiubai's hand turned, and the palm of his hand was still floating. How to save it?"

"If I'm not mistaken, your space should be changed by the flow rate." Jing Xiubai said, "Just put it in."

"Why do you suddenly want to give me this?" Chi Xin was puzzled, but her tone was pure joy.

"I want to make you happy."

Jing Xiubai's voice was so soft that even Chi Xin could barely hear it.

"Now that I...we're here, you can force yourself to take all of this."
