Chapter 101

Lin Tantan bit Ye Xiao’s lips clumsily, not like a kiss, but like a lost puppy who just came home, biting and licking out of fear and excitement, venting his emotions through this action.

Ye Xiao was dumbfounded by her, and lay quietly on the ground, holding her with one arm, and putting the other hand behind her head, stroking and comforting her, and fitting her lips appropriately to guide her.

Gradually, this chaotic and pure kiss gradually changed its taste, becoming soft and lingering. I don’t know who sticks out his tongue first, wanting to ask for more. Lin Tantan tightly clutched his clothes and pressed his broad shoulders , Ye Xiao’s hand on the back of her head also strengthened slightly.

After a long time, they separated, panting each other, looking at each other up and down, Lin Tantan’s eyes were red and a little dazed, while Ye Xiao’s eyes were full of tenderness and affection, looking at her tolerantly and quietly.

Lin Tantan suddenly pursed his mouth, and began to cry again, burying his face in his chest and rubbing back and forth, but this crying was completely different from just now, like a wronged and unhappy child begging for a hug.

Ye Xiao hugged her silently, stroked her hair comfortingly, and said softly: “It’s okay, I’m here, I won’t leave you.”

Lin talked for a while, only humming Qingqing’s little nasal voice, and hummed in a low voice: “Then what if I left suddenly?”

“Then I’ll go find you, no matter where you are, no one can make you leave me.”

Ye Xiao’s voice is very soft, but very firm. He is serious. He is not confident that he can ignore all obstacles, but he will do his best to protect her. If one day she suddenly disappears, he will press his own All including life, but also to find her again.

Lin Tantan felt the weight of his words, and felt a little relieved, she was really frightened, afraid and suspicious of everything, fearing that everything would disappear like a mirror image in the next second.

But Ye Xiao’s words gave her a sense of security. She let out a breath and lay on his chest, listening to his real and powerful heartbeat, she felt that her eyelids were extremely heavy, and she fell into the darkness uncontrollably.

Ye Xiao didn’t hear her response, looked down, she closed her eyes, lying on his heart as if she was asleep, her breathing was steady and her nose was a little stuffy, her eyes and nose were red from crying, her face was full of tears, she was in a panic Poor again.

Her hand was still holding on to his clothes, as if she was worried that he would disappear if she let go, this dependent look made Ye Xiao feel pity and love in his heart, and he lowered his head and kissed her hairline again.

But at the same time, he didn’t know whether to wake her up or let her continue to sleep. I don’t know if she can bear the nightmare just now, but she is obviously very tired, and crying in dreams is very energy-consuming things.

After hesitating for a moment, he still didn’t wake her up. He stretched out his hand and pulled the blanket on the side to cover the two of them, and then lay on the ground as a mattress, not moving at all, just watching her closely.

When she frowned, he was about to worry.

Fortunately, this time she slept soundly and peacefully, the moon had completely set, the darkness before dawn was piercingly black, and the wind was gradually picking up, revealing the meaning of blowing people, Ye Xiao put up an air barrier around her body, Avoid cold wind blowing in.

The sky is gradually getting brighter, revealing a fish-maw-like gray-white color, and then a dull and shallow azure color, and then the sun gradually rises, and the morning light shines on the earth. Ye Xiao looked at it in a blink of an eye. Into his eyes, he looked down at the little girl in his arms, her sleeping face was still peaceful, and he pulled up the quilt a bit to block the light that shone on her face.

At the same time, he carefully pressed a few times on the watch, and found the number Z891 through the communication records. The owner of this number is downstairs, one of the dozen or so people, Ye Xiao doesn’t have the communication number of other people, so naturally he can only find this person.

He edited a message, to the effect that they should go back to the base by themselves, and the others would also let them disband by themselves, without looking for him or waiting for him. He talked to Lin about other matters.

Downstairs, in the large supermarket two floors away, the racks were scattered, filled with all kinds of wrapping paper, torn clothes and the like. As the sky got brighter, the clutter here became more apparent.

More than 80 people have already got up and started activities one after another, packing up and eating, preparing to continue fighting or return to the base.

The latter was the dozen or so members of the Zhengyang brigade who had been recruited. They stayed up all night and worried about the future. Their expressions were much more haggard than others, especially the one who had done it The nightmare is even more sluggish, and the eyes are dark and black.

Someone asked, “Where are Team Ye and Ms. Lin?”

“I don’t know, is it outside?”

At this time, the owner of the number Z891 received the message, and after reading it, he told everyone the content. Everyone didn’t think much about it, they just thought they had something to leave in the middle of the night, and some people said that they heard the gunshots that should have been fired from upstairs yesterday. The sound, and the screams of the zombies on the street outside, they probably went to fight the zombies. Others also said that they heard the same voice, and they couldn’t help but sigh that they were really hardworking.

No one thought that they were still upstairs, and they didn’t want to climb two floors to see if they were still there, so they dispersed and left.

Lin Tantan didn’t wake up until the sun rose a lot and the shadows on the ground gradually shortened. She was a little confused. She looked down and saw that she was lying on Ye Xiao’s body. posture, the two of them stuck tightly together.

What happened last night flashed through her mind one by one, she stood up, Ye Xiao opened her eyes, the two looked at each other for a moment, Lin Tantan got up with hot cheeks first: “I, I just press down like this Are you asleep?”

Ye Xiao smiled and sat up slowly: “Is it better?”

“Huh? Oh, much better. How long have I been asleep?”

Ye Xiao looked at the time: “From four o’clock to now, it has been more than four hours.”

Lin Tantan was a little surprised. This was the first time in so many days that she slept for so long at once. She blinked and found that her eyes were a little dry. And when I was dreaming, I pressed my throat and screamed.

And the face is a bit dry, which is because the skin is tightened after the tear stains dry.

She quickly rubbed her face, feeling embarrassed to look at Ye Xiao: “Well, I had a bad dream last night, was it scary?”

Ye Xiao rubbed her head: “It made me worry, are you still afraid?”

Lin Tantan thought for a while, then shook her head. She is awake now, and she is in good spirits after a good night’s sleep. The dream’s effect on disturbing her mind is relatively weak.

It’s like a person who is afraid of ghosts and the dark. If he lives alone, he may not dare to go to the toilet at night, but he has no psychological barriers at all during the day.

She felt that she was almost like this, only remembering the vague dream, she still flinched, that dream was too scary, because it was too real, and it hit what she was most worried about, she couldn’t even help doubting it now, Is that really just a dream?

Also, if she had that dream again, would she be able to bear it?

The answer is basically no.

She felt a little depressed.

“I’m much better now, but it’s really serious. I only had one kind of dream before, and I knew it was a dream as soon as I had a dream, and I was able to wake up by myself, but this time it seemed that I had several dreams. I don’t remember clearly. Anyway, there is more than one, and I don’t realize that I am dreaming at all.”

Ye Xiaoxin said, it doesn’t help if I call your name or splash water, but he didn’t say it now to make her more stressed.

He said: “It’s good to be fine now, doesn’t it mean that you should maintain a good mood? Now that it’s dawn, don’t think about those things for the time being. Wait for other people with such symptoms to return to the base and gather to see if there is any pattern. ”

He comforted: “The first time you fell asleep, you slept for half an hour and then had nightmares, and the second time you slept for four or five hours, you’re fine. There should be a pattern.”

Lin Tantan thought about it, and his gloomy little face lit up: “It makes sense, it’s useless to think too much, and even though there was such a scene, it was a blessing in disguise for me to sleep for a long time, and I lost everything in front of me.” It has been replenished, enough for me to last for several days.”

The corner of Ye Xiao’s mouth twitched: “…that’s right.”

Lin Tantan stood up: “Then let’s go, what are we going to do next?” She suddenly paused, “You haven’t slept all night, have you?”

“I’m fine, not tired.”

Lin Tantan: Yes, in terms of ability to stay up late, she is far behind him.

I feel refreshed even without sleep for several days.

She took a closer look to make sure he wasn’t lying, and asked, “What shall we do next?”

Ye Xiao said: “Want to go back?”

Lin Tantan shook his head.

“Then go kill some zombies.”

Lin Tantan nodded: “This is good.”

Then the two started to move. When encountering zombies, those with a small number would kill them directly, and those with a large number would run away, and then occupy a high place to continue killing. Both of them are long-range players, and their abilities are almost endless, which is a disaster for zombies.

If there is no danger and there are many zombie corpses on the ground, then Lin Tantan would start prying crystal nuclei to pick up waste.

Split the zombie’s head with the gold system, and then use the long, tongs-like tool Ye Xiao found for her to pinch the crystal nucleus out, wash it with water, and then burn it with fire, it is immediately clean, and put it in the bag .

When she was doing this, she couldn’t help but look at Ye Xiao, and found that he continued to work within the sight range. Once she didn’t find him, she would feel nervous and stop to look for him.

Ye Xiao also noticed her uneasiness, and always kept himself very close to her, or had more physical contact.

After a long time, Lin Tantan gradually relaxed. The influence of dreams on her became less and less, and she became happy again. She was extremely busy. After cleaning up the whole street of zombies, Ye Xiao The corpses were rolled up and piled aside, and she set them on fire.

She picked up the crystal nucleus and suddenly laughed: “Do you think we look like you are cutting monsters in front and I am picking up equipment in the back?”

Ye Xiao said: “After picking it up, let’s clean the street by the way?”

“Yes, the city is my home, and hygiene depends on everyone.” Saying this old slogan, she laughed again. Thinking about it carefully, she has only seen scenes of sanitation workers cleaning the roads in the movies, but she has never seen them in reality. Later generations use robots and fully automatic sweepers.

Now that I am doing this job, I have an unspeakable joy. Looking at the streets that are no longer littered with corpses after being cleaned up, I feel a sense of accomplishment.

Ye Xiao: “…” I don’t know what she is happy about at all, but it’s right to be happy.

Then they met a group of people who were being chased miserably by the corpses, and they helped out. A pile of corpses waited for Lin Tantan to dig out the crystal nucleus, and she was even happier.

That group of people saw that they were so happy killing a zombie, not to mention their envy.

In the afternoon, there were fewer and fewer zombies. Lin Tantan asked if they were almost killed. Ye Xiao patted his head and said, “The corpses have moved south.”

“?”

“It means that they are heading towards the base.” Although many people are fighting here, the corpses are not so easy to be caught. After careful calculation, the corpses will arrive at the base in about a day or two.

Lin Tantan said: “The leading zombies are dead, they still rushed to the base.”

“Without the biggest leader, there are many small leaders, and with a base of millions of people in sight, how can they stand still?”

If you look down from the sky, strands of corpses are continuously penetrating into the city from the northwest corner.

Because of the loss of the biggest leader, some wandered around unconsciously, mixing with the original zombies in the city. Some headed towards the southeast with a clear goal. Obviously, their goal was still the Ning City base, and if they were capable or high-level zombie group leaders, they could call on the original zombies in the city to join them.

Not enough that they can no longer form a huge group of corpses, and it is impossible for them to be directed by a certain zombie to exert force in the same place. In addition, there are still people waiting for them and consuming them quietly on the way they advance, even if they will reach the base in the end , but the threat to the base will not be too great.

The group of corpses went southeast, and the people in this area also followed, harvesting the tail of the group of corpses, and then in the afternoon of this day, they went around the edge of the city and withdrew to the base.

They were the first wave of people to return to the base. When they came back, it was already dark enough. The gate of the base was specially reserved for them until now. Let go.

Lin Tantan and the two were a little earlier than them, because they were picked up by helicopter, and it happened to be evening when they came back.

At this time, all the people who had been tricked by the weird zombie had returned. There were more than 300 people in total, and more than 200 of them were in the building last night. It was obviously a hard-hit area.

Because the base promised to provide treatment for those injured in the fight against the tide of corpses as much as possible, this kind of injury should be considered as the base should be responsible for the injury. But Ye Xiao, considering what Lin Tan said, asked the Zhengyang brigade to come forward to receive these people. The location was in the clinic of the compound, and some doctors and experts related to psychology were also invited.

But because those who stay will be asked in detail about the time, place, and distance between them and the zombie, as well as the content of the nightmare and the real experience related to it, so not many are willing to stay.

In the end, there were nearly 20 people from the Zhengyang Brigade and some other people, totaling more than 70 people.

When the two arrived, someone was telling these patients to go back, eat what they should eat, take a shower if they should take a shower, and come back at night, and then let them sleep here and observe their reactions after sleep.

Lin Tantan silently looked at those who left dejectedly, with a haggard look and frowned, like a patient shrouded in clouds. He had sympathized with them before, and after having a nightmare in the early morning, he felt sympathy for them even more.

Hey, this symptom is really tormenting.

Ye Xiao also has complicated eyes. Before, he couldn’t help but think that it would be too exaggerated. It’s okay to have a nightmare, but after seeing Lin Tantan’s reaction, he didn’t think so at all. It was really hard to save himself, and it was hard for others to help dilemma.

They waited for the people to leave and walked in, “Captain Ye, team leader.” Mingze greeted the two immediately when he saw them, and now he is in charge here.

Ye Xiao asked: “How much have you figured out?”

Mingze said: “The source of all patients’ nightmares is related to their personal experiences and personality traits. We preliminarily estimate that the zombie’s ability is to stimulate the human brain and hide in the subconscious the most feared thing and the greatest weakness. Or the last thing you want to expose and keep playing in your head while you sleep.”

Mingze said solemnly: “The attack mechanism has not been clarified yet, and the treatment plan cannot be formulated, but the biggest problem now is that they are afraid of falling asleep, and they will have nightmares when they sleep. Some of the patients who are less than five meters away from the zombies , We let them try to fall asleep in the afternoon, they can hardly distinguish between nightmares and reality, manifested as verbal abuse and attacks on those around them after being forced to wake up.

“One of them couldn’t wake up and lost his heartbeat in the nightmare. Fortunately, he was rescued in time. He said that he was frightened by a monster in his dream and passed out. So we judged that if he really couldn’t wake up, there was probably someone Life is in danger.”

When Ye Xiao heard this, a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back, and he almost couldn’t wake up after Tan Tan.

Lin Tantan was also shocked, can this still kill people? She vaguely remembered that she almost passed out in the dream.

Only then did she truly realize the horror of this symptom, as well as the horror of that weird zombie.

If it is not found, or if everyone is scattered in various places, without communicating about nightmares, and without contacting the zombie head, give it a little more time, what will it grow into?

I can’t even imagine it. Did she think carefully about the records of such zombies in the history books? However, Ye Xiao was in the capital at this time in history, so she naturally only paid attention to the information of the distant Ning City.

She looked at Ye Xiao, fortunately the zombie was already dead.

Ye Xiao held her hand, looked at her comfortingly, and asked, “What else?”

Mingze continued: “What’s more, even people whose symptoms are not so serious are not small. Most people put in a lot of effort to kill the zombies, and they are very tired physically, but they dare not rest because of this kind of thing. Don’t dare to sleep, if it continues like this, the fear of nightmares and lack of sleep will make their emotions continue to be bad, and even do things that hurt others and themselves.

Ye Xiao nodded: “You did a good job.”

At this time, a car drove up, and a man in military uniform got off from it, and he gave a military salute to Ye Xiao: “Captain Ye, I heard that you are back, our chief invites you to go over and discuss things.”

Lin Tantan took a look at this man, the headquarters of the anti-corpse tide is at Lu Jianping, and Bai Cheng is currently staying there every day, so it is normal for Lu Jianping to ask Ye Xiao to come over instead of him.

Ye Xiao said to her: “Let’s go.”

Lin Tantan: “? What am I going to do, you go by yourself, I will stay here.”

Ye Xiao frowned slightly: “Xu Li, Meimei and the others are all out to kill zombies, you should come with me.”

“Oh, what’s the matter in our own compound, and there are so many guards, hurry up, you, the business is important.” Ye Xiao stood silently, and Lin Tantan was surprised: “Is there anything else?”

Ye Xiao: Who was crying because he couldn’t find him in a dream before, and who was nervous when he couldn’t see him, but now he waved away when he recovered.

He sighed and whispered something only she could hear: “I’ll be back in the evening.”

Lin Tantan coughed: “Well, I won’t sleep tonight, so don’t worry.”

Ye Xiao didn’t say anything else, and told her to pay attention to safety before getting into the car and leaving.

Lin Tantan and Mingze entered the clinic together, and looked through the medical records of the patients. Anyone who was less than ten meters away from the zombies was her special concern. Looking at it this way, there are quite a lot. A dozen or so, some of them fell asleep last night, and the reaction was particularly strong, either they couldn’t wake up, or they went crazy after waking up from a dream, and even a few of them couldn’t suppress it.

Lin Tantan touched his face and sighed, feeling very sympathetic.

But she was embarrassed when she saw the content of some people’s nightmares.

The front is relatively normal. Some people witnessed the death of their relatives, some people saw their children being abducted, some people were buried in the ruins after the earthquake and waited for rescue, and some people had done something wrong and dreamed that the person they hurt came to take revenge.

In the future, there will be a lot of weird content, such as bumping into ghosts, being chased by monsters, getting into a frying pan, becoming a fat man of 500 catties, winning 50 million but suddenly finding that the lottery ticket cannot be found and cannot be redeemed, etc. of.

Lin Tantan thought, no wonder these people are willing to tell the contents of their dreams frankly, there is nothing unspeakable at all!

This is where I ate dinner. It was a nutritionally balanced working meal. Ye Xiao deliberately called her back to ask if she had eaten, and she easily replied that the meal was good. There were vegetables and meat, and there was also a pickled cucumber. It’s very appetizing. The master chef knows that she also eats work meals, so he cooks a small stove for her. There is a sour soup with fat beef. I don’t know how to make it. It tastes very delicious.

Ye Xiaomo paused, and then told her that he would not be back for the time being.

Lin Tantan’s answer was: “Oh, it’s okay, you’re busy, then I won’t bother you.”

Ye Xiao looked at the hung up communicator with an inexplicable look on his face. His tone sounded really relaxed and cheerful. It seemed that he didn’t feel uncomfortable after being separated for half an hour.

He felt distressed when his girlfriend was fragile and clingy, but as himself who had been clingy to her, he couldn’t feel happy when she was not clingy at all.

He pursed his lips, his expression was a little gloomy, and Lu Jianping, who happened to see his expression, sank in his heart: “Could it be that the tide of corpses is actually very serious, and this level is very difficult to pass?”
