Chapter 531 Even the Zombie King Has a Weakness 8
"Captain, there are so many zombies outside, how are we going to get out this time?"
A flashlight beam illuminated the dark sewer, and two young men dressed in proper combat uniforms hurried along the flow of sewage.
"Enough with the nonsense, let's go." Jiang Yan's tone was lazy, as if he wasn't worried at all about the emergency outside. Deng Xiaozhi followed behind him, wailing, "But it stinks here!"
"Captain, why are you walking through the sewers?!"
"You're not going to use the sewers? You're going to stay on the surface and wait to feed the zombies? You're so kind, seeing them starving, you'd sacrifice yourself for them!"
"...Ahhhhh, Captain, please stop!"
Deng Xiaozhi was devastated. Their base came to this city to rescue the living and look for supplies.
The above-mentioned group found that there were very few zombies in the area, so the dozen or so of them did not carry many weapons.
Little did they know that as soon as they got off the bus, before they even started collecting anything, due to a moment of carelessness, the entire group of sixteen almost became zombie food.
Now, the two of them are not only in danger of losing their lives when they leave with the rest of the team, but they are also in constant danger of losing their lives.
Behind him, Deng Xiaozhi was going crazy, while in front, Jiang Yan leisurely reached into his pocket, pulled out a candy, and casually tossed it to the person behind him: "Eat my candy and shut your mouth."
"Okay, Captain~" So he successfully shut his mouth, thought for a moment, and stuffed the candy into his pocket.
It smells so bad here, he's worried he'll throw up if he eats candy.
Bored, Deng Xiaozhi waved his flashlight back and forth, making the road ahead alternate between light and darkness. Jiang Yan had been holding back for a long time and was just about to scold him when a scream rang in his ears: "Ah! There's a zombie child!"
Jiang Yan rubbed his ears, and immediately picked up the knife with his other hand: "Where?" He asked seriously, following the direction Deng Xiaozhi was pointing, and saw the child curled up in the corner.
The child trembled as he looked at them, his only clean eye filled with fear.
Jiang Yan slapped the yelling Deng Xiaozhi across the face, then strode toward Zhao Zhao and called out affectionately, "Little friend."
As Jiang Yan approached the child, he could clearly sense his fear.
He smiled gently, squatted down, and said softly, "Little friend, why are you here all alone? Where are your parents?"
Zhao Zhao remained silent for a long time. The older brother in front of him had a very sincere smile, and he was wondering if he was a bad person.
"Don't be afraid, little friend. We are good people who came here to save you." Another person smiled and handed him a piece of candy.
Zhao Zhao's wariness lessened; the brother who gave her the candy seemed like a good person.
"Keep it, kid." Deng Xiaozhi grinned, revealing a set of bright white teeth. Zhao Zhao smiled back, "Thank you."
The dirty child took the candy from his palm, leaving some stains on his fair hand.
Jiang Yan and Deng Xiaozhi exchanged a glance. Deng Xiaozhi then turned to Deng Xiaozhi and asked, "Little friend, where are your family members?"
Zhao Zhao shook her head: "I don't know either."
"Have they gotten separated?"
Zhao Zhao nodded with his head down, so Jiang Yan reached out and hugged him: "It's too dangerous here. Come with your brother to the base first, and then we'll help you find your family, okay?"
Zhao Zhao blinked: "But..." The system quickly spoke up: [Agree with him. Now you can save your life and won't have to suffer anymore.]
A captain of a regular legion from a legitimate base is somewhat credible!
"Then brother..."
He will help you find your brother.
Zhao Zhao hesitated, unsure if he could still trust strangers.
Jiang Yan didn't wait for Zhao Zhao's consent and took him away directly. If a child stays here, something bad will happen sooner or later.
Zhao Zhao was still deep in thought, her head buried in his arms. When she came to her senses, she had been carried quite a distance.
He pouted and said angrily, "Why didn't you wait for me to think it over? I haven't even answered whether I want to go with you or not."
Jiang Yan glanced at him with a smile, her tone returning to its lazy, nonchalant tone: "So, how's your thinking going?"
Deng Xiaozhi also came over, looking at him with expectant eyes as if teasing a child. Zhao Zhao smiled when she saw him, and said with a smile, "I agree to go with you!"
God knows how much determination it took for him to make this decision.
Deng Xiaozhi smiled and said, "This kid has a pretty good attitude; he can even laugh."
Jiang Yan: "You think everyone is like you, all you know is howling and wailing?"
"Hmph!" Deng Xiaozhi ignored him.
Every time Jiang Yan passed a sewer outlet, he would climb the stairs to listen to the road conditions. If the conditions were good, he would push open the manhole cover to check his direction.
"We'll be out soon if we walk a little further."
"Wow!" Zhao Zhao and Deng Xiaozhi both gave the same flattering expression, which amused Jiang Yan. "Don't lead the kids astray," he said to Deng Xiaozhi.
"This is our way of showing our admiration for you!" the two said in unison, leaving Jiang Yan speechless.
In such a short time, the two became familiar with each other and reached an agreement.
However, the laughter from the two people, one big and one small, made the time pass less difficult in the gloomy sewers.
