34 ◇Disgruntled Actions◇ (1/2)
Lu Xing had pocketed the Eternal Pearl, and finished up reversing the damage on his hand. Not wishing to alarm Xiaolang with the disgusting chicken carcasses, he cleared out the cage of mummified carcasses. Disgusted by the weird squirming roots wrapping the inside of the flesh like worms pressing against film...
'I hate coming up close to this...Seedlings.' Lu Xing thought as he flung them out, away from the truck.
At some point, from the carcasses, the Seedlings would evolve...up until they've eaten their fill and become high level Green Queen's with territories of their own.
Lu Xing considered burning the cirpses at first...
”As if I should waste my time. Damn things spread like weeds.” Lu Xing grumbled out darkly.
Closing up the cage, Lu Xing gave one last thoughtful look at the surviving chickens and rooster...seems as though the surviving flock could be of the Mutant kind.
'This could turn out this could be a rather profitable gain...' Lu Xing mused as he went on to the drivers side.
Getting in, he got the keys out that Xiaolang had handed over, and started it up.
As he got back onto the roads, the debris of dead greenery fell off, crumbling to the hard pavement.
Lu Xing drove on the still intact roads he had noted down as he had shadowstepped on the rooftops. Avoiding zombie infested areas while running down a few straggling zombies here and there. Soon after about seven minutes, he arrived at the front of the school building, zombies beginning to wander near...
Pratically hearing the busses rumbling near, Lu Xing walked out of the truck.
Giving a quick glance at the surrounding, Lu Xing realized that it would be stupid to leave the truck on and unattended...no matter how quick his shadowstep skill was.
”Wu Xinyi. Can you jump down from the roof with Xiaolang?” Lu Xing said loudly but not loud enough for anyone other than Mr. Wu to hear him, he hesitated on adding the word children to his question, undecided about adding the burden...

Mr. Wu was decidedly irked as he played babysitter with Xiaolang having taken his cigarettes on the pretext of the infant being present...
He had his eyes closed but was in fact listening in to everything happening below. Xiaolang was keeping Xiulan and the baby entertained with a game of peekaboo. All the other students were huddled together talking about what could've happened,and their plans...
Only Wen ZhenKang had actually seated himself closer to Mr. Wu's small group.
Ms. Song still attached to him like an octopus to a stick.
”Yes.” Mr. Wu answered opening his eyes, ”Xiaolang. We need to leave.”
Xiaolang stopped playing and looked at Mr. Wu, question practically floating around his head.
”Lu Xing is down below waiting for us.” Mr. Wu whispered leaning near to Xiaolang's ear, ”Hand the kids over to the students, and come along.”
Mr. Wu could only suspect that this was Lu Xing's final decision having given very little information.
Xiaolang was confused, and distrust began to gather within him.
”Give the kid a sign that your waiting for us.” Mr. Wu stated looking towards the balcony.
Mr. Wu could hear Lu Xing curse out, then he mentioned a name that gripped at his heart with sheer fear.
”No time then.” Mr. Wu stated grabbing Xiaolang, his arm awkwardly avoiding the baby strapped to the boy, then grabbed the little girl...
Both of whom began to struggle, though Xiaolang less due to the baby on his chest.
Striding over to the railing.
”Calm it. And look.” Mr. Wu said nodding downward.
Xiaolang and Xiulan stilled.
