CH 18

The fog started suddenly, and when a few people came out, even the golden osmanthus tree not far away was hidden in the fog.

Xiao Shenwei looked up at the gray sky and lowered his head regretfully.

”I won’t be able to eat it tonight.”

Covered by the white fog, even the nearby tree trunks and trees could not be seen clearly, and trying to go out through the jungle was tantamount to asking for a dead end.

In desperation, the four returned to the cave and decided to wait until the fog cleared before making plans.

There is often fog in the mountains and forests in Nanze, which usually dissipates in a day or two, and several people also brought enough emergency equipment and dry food.

But to be honest, they had never seen such a thick fog today.

The dark shadows that appeared and dissipated in the thick fog, and the rustling sound always made people feel uneasy.

Tang Qiu sprinkled the insect repellent powder at the entrance of the cave and sat down around the fire.

Xiao Shenwei leaned against the white wolf’s soft fur, looked at the thicker fog outside the cave, and began to be in a daze.

He always felt that as the mist filled the air, the glands on the back of his neck started to heat up slowly.

rustle–

sand–

There was something moving in the grass outside the cave.

Xiao Shenwei swallowed his breath and reached out to hold Rong Yun’s wrist.

Rong Yun turned his head to look at him: “What’s wrong?”

Xiao Shenwei was silent for a while, looked into Rong Yun’s eyes, and said seriously, “I’m afraid you will be afraid.”

…If the food reserve is frightened and no one makes honey rabbit legs, then won’t I lose a lot? yes, yes…

”Yeah.” Rong Yun didn’t pierce it, and leaned beside Xiao Shenwei. After thinking about it, he stretched out his hand, wrapped his arms around Xiao Shenwei’s shoulders, looked at him and smiled: “This way, I won’t be afraid.”

Xiao Shenwei lowered his eyes and stopped talking.

Then silently shrank back into Rong Yun’s arms.

During the flickering of the fire, the firewood occasionally “beeped”, and a few small sparks rose up.

Ping Hanhai watched the movement in the thick fog with vigilance.

Tang Qiu hugged his knees, poked around the fire with a twig in his hand, and then patted his head:

”Let’s play pen fairy!”

Ping Hanhai & Rong Yun: “…”

Xiao Shenwei: “I refuse.”

…Who wants to play pen fairy with you in such a strange environment? !

Do you think that your san worth is not falling fast enough? ? ?

(San value: For example, when you see something so scary that your mind is stimulated, the san finger will drop. When the san value returns to 0, people will go crazy.)

Xiao Shenwei looked outside and could only see the thick fog in the range of four or five meters around the entrance of the cave, and only thought that Tang Qiu’s proposal was terrible.

The rustling outside was getting louder and louder, and there was a faint sound of heavy footsteps. After a careful feeling, you could even feel the slight tremor of the ground under your feet.

Charcoal raised his ears, got up and started barking out of the cave.

Everyone stood up, holding weapons in their hands, staring nervously at the thick fog outside the cave.

Xiao Shenwei raised the door as a shield in front of him, leaned against the charcoal head tightly, and patted its head to signal it to keep silent.

The atmosphere was tense like a string that was about to break. In the cave, apart from the occasional crackling of the fire, and the low growl from the white wolf’s throat, there were only a few breaths left.

rustle–

bang — bang —

The sound was getting closer and closer, Xiao Shenwei even saw the firewood in the fire was shaken and rolled down.

”Bah,”

A piece of gravel the size of a finger fell, causing Xiao Shenwei’s heart to jump in shock, throwing his hand off the door and jumping three feet high.

It doesn’t matter if you jump, but Xiao Shenwei can see the densely twisted and surging waves on the ground in the fog outside the cave…

All kinds of snake spider ants.

”Mom-“

A chill rushed from the sole of the foot all the way up to the Tianling Gai.

Xiao Shenwei, who had goosebumps and completely fried his hair, screamed, jumped directly on Rong Yun’s back, grabbed Rong Yun’s waist, pointed out the hole, his voice trembled:

”…a lot of snakes.”

The army of insects and snakes bypassed the powder at the entrance of the hole as if they were running away, and rushed forward frantically, as if there were some terrible monsters behind them.

Xiao Shenwei even saw a giant python knock over a few trees that were not too sturdy in panic, and disappeared into the thick fog with a snort.

…What is it that even the giant python is so frightened?

Until the footsteps of bang bang got closer and closer, stone chips and dust continued to fall from the cave.

Everyone held their breath.

bang——

bang——

The sound of footsteps rang in their ears, and the earth trembled.

Two legs covered with black fur appeared in the thick fog, and heavy breathing sounded overhead.

Xiao Shenwei looked up.

A giant beast about two stories high was looming in the thick fog.

A shadow fell over his head, and there was a terrible chewing sound in the air.

A few people huddled in the hole and didn’t dare to say a word, Xiao Shenwei even rode on Rong Yun’s back, hugging Rong Yun’s neck and almost strangling Rong Yun’s back.

It wasn’t until the footsteps faded away and the vegetation nearby was in a mess that Xiao Shenwei took out a telescope and stuck his head out.

Then Xiao Shenwei was stunned.

”…Brother Flathead??!”

Flat-headed brother, scientific name honey badger, is the leader of the animal kingdom, feeding on small mammals, reptiles, ants, snakes, and berries.

The species is fierce and aggressive, stepping on young crocodiles and tearing venomous snakes, and even dares to compete with lions and cheetahs.

It’s no wonder that the insects and snakes ran away, and even the giant python was scared away.

Xiao Shenwei looked at Brother flathead who was rioting wherever he went, and fell silent.

He understands the truth, but why is Brother Pingtou so big? ? ?

Some alienated beasts will indeed grow in size, but the largest alienated beast he has ever seen is only a half-heavy truck-sized bison.

However, today’s flat-headed brother, Xiao Shenwei, thought he had entered Gulliver’s Travels by mistake.

Xiao Shenwei: I’m afraid I’m not dreaming.

Then he squeezed his thigh.

No pain.

…it isn’t hard enough?

Then try harder.

Emmmmmm still doesn’t hurt?

Xiao Shenwei touched his face, stunned.

… It’s broken, I’m afraid it’s a nightmare.

Just as he was trying to wake him up, Rong Yun’s faint voice came over.

”You didn’t dream.”

Xiao Shenwei: “?!”

…why is this dream so real? He could actually feel the hot breath that Rong Yun exhaled when he turned around and spoke!

”You just… pinched my waist.”

Xiao Shenwei:  …

emmmmmmm…

…Should I apologize now or take the opportunity to run away?

Xiao Shenwei froze his limbs and calmly got down from his back, carefully tidying up the other party’s wrinkled clothes, grinning with a textbook smirk.

”Ha ha.”

Rong Yun stroked Xiao Shenwei’s hair with a smile, and brushed his fingers against his cheek.

”Long Chaoshou, it’s gone.”

Xiao Shenwei: “…”

Kill me.

…

The crisis was temporarily lifted, but the fog still did not dissipate.

Xiao Shenwei was still immersed in the shock of “my mother, flathead is the fucking size of a two-storey building” and couldn’t come back to his senses.

Rong Yun and several others were already squatting beside the fire, using branches to hold a few small snakes that were unfortunately affected by the “worm and snake stampede incident”, and roasted them on the fire.

Jiao Xiang came over with a crackling sound, Xiao Shenwei turned his head and glanced at Rong Yun quietly.

”Do you want to eat it?” Rong Yun handed over the processed snake meat.

Xiao Shenwei stepped back behind Tantou, holding on to Tantou’s ears to expose half of his head.

”Don’t want.”

Snakes and snakes are so scary, how can they eat snakes and snakes? ?

”Okay.” Rong Yun didn’t force it, and withdrew his hand.

Xiao Shenwei watched several people eat deliciously, and his heart was shaken again.

…or, just have a taste?

In the end, Xiao Shenwei ate four pieces in one go.

Faced with the shock of Ping Hanhai and Tang Qiu about his appetite, Xiao Shenwei opened his mouth.

”Hiccup~”

The night was getting darker, and the fog had not dissipated.

A few people gathered around the fire,

……play cards.

The card was brought by Tang Qiu, and this guy almost never puts serious things in his small backpack.

What are you doing with playing cards when you go out to hunt zombies? ? ?

Stoke the prey with the Ace of Spades or plan to use the king and the queen to punish justice? ?

However, it has to be said that now this deck of cards is enough to make them less boring during the long night.

Through Rong Yun, Xiao Shenwei learned about the relationship between the oasis and the size of the animals in it.

The closer to the center of the oasis, the bigger the alienated beasts are, but they are almost all shrunk in the depths and do not come out very much.

It was an accident that Brother Flathead appeared on the periphery of the oasis this time.

In the center of the oasis, the crater originally formed by the fall of the meteorite has formed a lake, where there is a real water monster.

No one can get there, and all the data today comes from drone shots.

All the evidence of the end of the world points to the crater in the center of the oasis, but no one can really go in and get the evidence.

What did those unknown foreigners bring with them that turned Blue Star into what it is now.

Xiao Shenwei lay in his sleeping bag and looked at the mist-shrouded sky, stretched out his hand, and his eyes fell on his pale fingers and slightly cyan nails.

These hands are different from humans, but also very different from zombies.

…then what am I?

Xiao Shenwei felt a little confused as he touched the cold, unwavering chest.

The night was getting darker and the fog was silent.

Xiao Shenwei felt the glands on the back of his neck getting hotter.

The fragrance of mint coming from Rong Yun’s body around him was like a poison, causing him to flash white light from time to time, causing him to be in a trance.

Tonight Rong Yun was watching, Tang Qiu fell asleep holding the tail of the charcoal head, and Ping Hanhai also fell asleep leaning on Tang Qiu.

Xiao Shenwei turned around and hugged Rong Yun, leaning on the back of his neck and taking a deep breath, his eyes were full of emeralds.

……So sad.

…so hungry.

…I really want to,

take a bite…

…

It was Rong Yun who first noticed something was wrong.

Xiao Shenwei’s fingers touching his wrist were too cold, so cold that Rong Yun thought he had touched the frost flowers formed in the early morning of late autumn.

The obvious heavy breathing from behind made Rong Yun’s heart skip a beat.

He turned around and pressed Xiao Shenwei’s arm in an attempt to trap him, but bumped into a pair of empty eyes.

Xiao Shenwei opened his mouth slightly, a little white fangs were exposed at the corners of his lips, and the pale lips were a little dry.

”Well……”

Xiao Shenwei frowned, bit his lower lip and whimpered, with water glittering in his eyes.

”It’s so uncomfortable…so cold…”

The smell of pheromone belonging to Xiao Shenwei permeated the air, so strong that it seemed to have slammed into each other’s arms.

The aroma of white tea stimulated the glands at the back of Rong Yun’s neck to start beating.

At this time, Xiao Shenwei’s strength was surprisingly strong, and he overturned Rong Yun with almost no effort.

The cold touch made Rong Yun almost froze in place.

Xiao Shenwei grabbed her wrist, and it hurt so much.

”Xiao Shenwei.” Rong Yun shouted.

The head buried in the neck paused, he heard Xiao Shenwei panting, and quickly withdrew, his eyes flashed, and his voice was unbelievably hoarse:

”…Mark me, Rong Yun.”

Xiao Shenwei: Just kidding, am I the kind of timid person?

Snake: hissing—

Xiao Shenwei [runs into Rong Yun’s arms with a loud noise]: I’m sorry, I am.
