The Calm That Comes With A Thought(27)
Xia Shu and his team received Shi Sheng’s signal flare while they were not far away. They immediately rushed back and were able to meet with Shi Sheng in a short amount of time.
“Young Master Jing, what’s wrong?”
“Take a look at those.” Jing Zhi pointed at those headless zombies.
They gasped in shock by what they saw. Zombies normally would stop moving after they lost their heads. However, those zombies were still moving around without their heads.
What is this situation?
“Those are…”
Shi Sheng glared at those zombies, with her expressions changing from time to time. However, no one had any idea what she was thinking.
As they remained silent, there was another huge crowd coming from afar.
They were the male leads and female leads.
Mu Xin only had a kid with her. Father Mu was not with them, Mu Xin looked awful.
The crowd stopped at the building opposite to Shi Sheng and her team. They entered the building after someone pried open the door of that building.
Two guards were guarding the door.
“Let’s rest here for a while, it’s already too late for departure as today.” Jing Zhi spoke. They were on higher ground at this moment, so if anything were to happen, they would be the first to be alerted.
The others looked at each other with dismay but knew that Jing Zhi’s plan was sensible. Since that nowhere was safe, it would be wiser to stay somewhere that would be advantageous to themselves.
The team began to report the items they scavenged to Xia Shu. After Xia Shu recorded the items, he kept all of it in storage.
The sky was getting dark. There were neither the moon nor any stars to be seen in the night sky. It was pitch black.
Jing Zhi went to Shi Sheng, and said to her: “Come down, it’s dangerous up there.”
Shi Sheng hopped down. Jing Zhi patted the dust off her, “what’s on your mind?”
Shi Sheng tilted her head, “I was thinking about… what is that thing that keeps following us.”
“Following us?”Jing Zhi furrowed his brows, “are you saying that this is the same thing from the village?”
“Every coincidence in this world has its prerequisite conditions, like two strangers who sheltered in the same place from the rain, which led them to get to know each other then fell in love with each other; the rain was the prerequisite conditions that lead to their love story.” Shi Sheng’s voice was so soft as if it was about to dissolve into the night.
The villagers that were zombified immediately and these headless zombies that could still move around freely must be related in one way or another.
Jing Zhi looked grave for a moment, “we’ll depart tomorrow morning once the sun rises.”
Shi Sheng glanced at him, with a faint smile in her calm eyes, “why are you so naive?”
If that thing could follow them here, it would obviously continue following them.
Jing Zhi probably thought about this. He solemnly proclaimed, “I’ll protect you.”
“Jing Zhi.” Shi Sheng suddenly grabbed Jing Zhi’s hand, “please don’t leave me.”
Jing Zhi was stunned, isn’t this topic changing a bit too fast?
“Of course,” said Jing Zhi while patting Shi Sheng’s head.
“What I mean is don’t leave my sight, and don’t be more than one meter away from me.” Shi Sheng explained.
She would not allow that incident to happen again.
“Certainly.” In such a dangerous situation, he also would not want to leave her vision field.
The night was getting darker, but Shi Sheng was not sleepy, so Jing Zhi stayed up with her, and watched the night while he was at it.
Shi Sheng supported her chin with one hand, staring into the darkness below while massaging Jing Zhi’s palm with her fingers.
Jing Zhi grabbed her hand out of any choices, “aren’t you tired?”
Shi Sheng turned her head to Jing Zhi, leaned in close to him. Jing Zhi thought she was about to kiss him, and his heart began to race a little faster. But no, she just wanted to get closer to him.
