novelHow Did You Die?
| ← Ch.1278 | Ch.1280 → |
Yue Xiaoxian shrugged and said, "Yeah, is anything wrong with that? Ah, forget about me. Who was that woman?"
Jingyan stayed silent for a few seconds and asked her a question."How did you die?"
Hearing that question, Yue Xiaoxian paused briefly, then sighed and said with a faint sadness, "Me? I was pushed into a zombie crowd."
Jingyan found a flat rock to sit down and said, "Unlike you, I became a zombie because of that woman. She was my cousin."
Yue Xiaoxian nodded and said, "Oh, she was a relative of yours. What happened? How did she make you turn into a zombie?"
The look in Jingyan's eyes grew cold."You were pushed into a zombie crowd, but my story is different. I got injured, then someone spread zombie blood on my wound. After that, I died slowly and became a zombie."
"That woman did that?" Yue Xiaoxian asked.
Jingyan shook her head and said, "No. It was another person, but that person did it under her command.
"Whoa. I can't believe you killed her just so quickly, " Yue Xiaoxian said, "Was that enough for you? If I knew this earlier, I'd catch her alive and then torture her slowly to death! But, she was your cousin, right? Why did she do that to you? Did you two always hate each other?"
While asking that question, she already had some guesses. That woman probably did that for food or a man.
Jingyan shook her head and said, "We were never in a close relationship, but we didn't hate each other. After the apocalypse, I attained a superpower before she did. So at first, I was protecting her and her family. We were looking for a base together. Later on, we met some other people. A man among them was also a superpower possessor, the strongest among them. The woman had her eyes on that man, but he didn't like her."
"He liked you, didn't he?" Yue Xiaoxian could guess the rest of the story.
That woman was fond of that man while the man fancied Jingyan, her cousin. She couldn't have the man, so she started hating her cousin. In the post-apocalyptic era, any kind of friendship or family-affection could break at any time.
In fact, the woman wanted to be the man only because she wanted his protection. According to Jingyan, the man was the strongest among them, so without a doubt, he was a leader. Being with a leader would definitely deliver all sorts of benefits.
The man liked Jingyan, so her cousin was jealous of her. At last, she grasped an opportunity to kill her.
Hearing Yue Xiaoxian's words, Jingyan stayed silent.
"Have you been hearing anything about that man lately?" Yue Xiaoxian asked another question, "Is he in Huaxia City?"
The woman was from Huaxia Base, meaning that the group of people joined Huaxia Base at last.
Jingyan stayed silent for another few seconds and said, "He's dead."
Yue Xiaoxian looked at her with surprise and said, "And you found out about his death? I guess you did have some feelings to him too."
"Enough about me. What about you? You remember everything now. Haven't you thought about finding those people who threw you into the zombie crowd and take your revenge?" Jingyan didn't want to talk more about that man. That man had died. He didn't even get a chance to become a zombie. He was killed by a mutated plant. At last, his body turned into fertilizer. It was pointless to talk about him now.
Yue Xiaoxian sighed and said, "Of course, I want to do that! I haven't found them yet though. I'm still waiting. They better all stay alive, so I can kill them slowly. I want them to know how it feels like to be bitten to death by countless zombies!"
After saying the last few words, she laughed viciously.
Jingyan looked at her up to down, then asked her, "Weren't you thrown into a zombie crowd. Why don't you have any wound on your face and body?"
Yue Xiaoxian sighed, "Yeah. Have you seen Jin Jiuyang's body? He shielded me from those zombies back then. Thankfully, his face wasn't damaged badly."
Jin Jiuyang was the male zombie who followed Qiu Lili's lead together with Yue Xiaoxian. They were friends. When the two of them were thrown into the zombie crowd, Jin Jiuyang shielded her with his own body. Soon after that, Qiu Lili showed up and scared off all the zombies. That was why the two of them weren't bitten into pieces. However, they inevitability turned into zombies.
"You still haven't found those people? Which base were they heading to back then?" Jingyan said curiously.
"Earth Dragon Base, " Yue Xiaoxian said, "That base is gone, and the survivors have moved to the other bases long ago."
Jingyan nodded and said, "I see. It's indeed not easy to find them. You only restored your memory six months ago. If you met Chief and fixed your memory sooner, it might be easier for you to find them."
Yue Xiaoxian nodded, then stood up and said, "Let's go and take a look at the tough cookie that not even Lili can deal with. How come they still haven't taken him down?"
Jingyan turned and spent a moment sensing the vibes of Qiu Lili and the others. The vibe of the Huaxia man had faded, but Qiu Lili and the others never left that area. That meant the man was still alive!
Yun Meng's vibe was gone too. However, Jingyan and Yue Xiaoxian believed that she was just in her invisible mode instead of being dead.
Based on the vibes they sensed, they figured that the man wasn't dead yet. Four level-seven beings failed to kill one level-seven being in such a long while. That man seemed to have some special skills!
Jingyan stood up as well, and the two of them turned around and swiftly moved toward that area.
At that moment, Yun Meng and the short man were still on the roof, both searching for each other's vibe. The mist was growing thicker and thicker, and the short man had started to slowly approach the edge of the roof, to see if he could find any chance to run.
Yun Meng spent a short while lying on the ground. After realizing that the enemy couldn't locate her in the mist, she started moving slowly.
"Are the two of them playing hide and seek in the mist? It's been a while, but nothing seems to be happening, " Qiu Lili murmured with curiosity as she opened her eyes wide to stare into the mist, trying to find the short man. She had night vision, but all she could see was a thick cloud of mist. Not even a trace of that man could be found.
