Wu Yueling didnât respond, but turned her head to an empty area.
âLing Ling?â Wu Chengyue didnât give up. He shook her gently and called her name.
Xiao Yunlong stood up and circled to before Wu Yuelingâs face, then squatted and prepared to talk to her. However, before he could start, she turned again without saying a word to him.
Xiao Yunlong felt speechless. âAlright, the same old Ling Ling again,â he thought.
Seeing that his daughter had turned back into that familiar state, Wu Chengyue sighed with disappointment and said, âI wonder how she got along with that zombie. That creature was so ugly, but Ling Ling didnât seem to be afraid of her.â
Speaking of that weird zombie, Xiao Yunlong got interested. He stood up and walked back to his seat, then sat down. âEh? Tell me about that zombie. Earlier on, you just roughly mentioned it to me. I donât know how that non-human-eating zombie looked like yet. How ugly is she?â He asked.
When Wu Chengyue returned to the base, he only told Xiao Yunlong that it was a zombie who took Ling Ling away, but didnât mention anything else.
He held Wu Yueling back in his arm, then looked at Xiao Yunlong and said, âHer face was covered in an afro, so I couldnât see it clearly. But, I saw the scars on his face, as large as her eyes, covering her entire face. She was wearing a clean military training suit, looking quite capable. Of course, to notice that, you need to forget about her face and afro.â
Xiao Yunlong pictured that zombie in his mind and felt a little weird.
âYou turned her hair into an afro! No wonder she took your daughter so far away! I told you that she had no bad intentions. Perhaps, she was sending Ling Ling back to you at that time.â Said Xiao Yunlong.
Wu Chengyue smiled and responded with, âBack then, I just attacked automatically. I didnât mean to hurt her. But, I didnât think that sheâd hold the grudge. She even made me apologize.â
âWhat? Apologize? She made you apologize? Are you sure that youâre talking about a zombie? Not a human being?â Xiao Yunlong gave a start and asked. He thought he had misheard.
Seeing the confused look in Xiao Yunlongâs face, Wu Chengyue nodded smilingly. Xiao Yunlong again felt speechless.
âHow did she tell you to⊠apologize? Can you understand zombie roars?â Xiao Yunlong recovered from the shock and asked in surprise. While speaking, he was also picturing that zombie roaring at Wu Chengyue to make him apologize.
He wanted to laugh, but couldnât tell why, so the look on his face had become very strange. Seeing that strange look, Wu Chengyue said, âJust laugh if you want to. Why do you have to keep a straight face?â
Xiao Yunlong made a fist before his mouth of cover his expression, then said, âEm-hem⊠I was just picturing that zombie roaring at you. Thatâs a little weird. So, how did you know that she wanted you to apologize?â
Wu Chengyue glanced at him with a smile and responded, âWho told you that she roared? She can write!â
âEm, write? That sounds more like it⊠Eh? Wait a moment! She can write?â Xiao Yunlong exclaimed as he registered the meaning behind the words.
âDamn! Write? Is that still a zombie?â Xiao Yunlong thought.
âIsnât she a zombie?â Xiao Yunlong spent two seconds to process what he had heard, and then paused briefly while staring at Wu Chengyue in disbelief. He felt that it wasnât right, so he asked, âItâs not a joke, is it?â
Wu Chengyue gave him a mysterious smile and just shrugged. âShe is a zombie, but she still has her human memories and humanity!â he thought.
Xiao Yunlongâs face was still filled with disbelief. He stared at Wu Chengyue, even showing a little scorn as he said, âA zombie which can write? Do you think that Iâm silly? How can a zombie write?â
All zombies were supposed to lose their humanity, mind, and souls. They were like monsters, with only their instinctive desire to feed on human beings and wander purposelessly.
How could that kind of creature do something that only human beings were capable of?
If that wasnât a joke, what was it?
Wu Chengyue remained silent and just smiled faintly. However, Wu Yueling, who had her face buried in her fatherâs chest, now suddenly turned back to glance at Xiao Yunlong, then quickly buried her head back into Wu Chengyueâs arms.
Wu Chengyue couldnât see the look in his daughterâs face, but Xiao Yunlong, who sat in front of him, saw it and then fell silent.
âLittle Ling Ling, please explain that disdainful look on your face!â Xiao Yunlong paused slightly when he noticed Wu Yuelingâs expression, then shouted in his head.
The little girl never talked to him before, but just now, she suddenly threw him a cute but disdainful glance. Xiao Yunlong even began to feel that she had started becoming a little annoying! She was no longer adorable!
Wu Chengyue looked at him smilingly and said, âYou can go and find out if you donât believe me. But, why should I lie to you? If youâre going, I need to warn you that just donât let her scare you.â
Imagining the tall and sturdy Xiao Yunlong being scared by that zombieâs human-like behavior, Wu Chengyueâs smile grew slightly brighter.
Xiao Yun rolled his eyes and said scornfully, âI could tell that the female zombie had no hostility toward us. But, if youâre telling me that she can write⊠please stop joking.â
Wo Chengyue rolled his eyes and then said, âBelieve it or not.â âŠ
Lin Qiao who had been heading South, had no idea that some people were looking for the body that she was using at the moment. Neither did she know that the people that she was looking for had brushed past her, and were moving in another direction, further and further away from her.
Qiu Liliâs vibe was way stronger than Lin Qiaoâs, and could spread widely. If she wanted to, she could let the zombies within two miles in radius sense her.
