Chapter 18
I pricked up my ears and indeed heard clear footsteps outside the water tank.
The footsteps were not heavy; the person seemed to intentionally suppress the sound, very light, one after another, and then stopped in front of the water tank.
My heart tightened, feeling as if I were drawing lots.
Top: Hou Lao Ban; Middle: zombies; Bottom: Dage.
Let it be.
I held Jiang Haoyan's hand and suddenly stood up, sending the water tank lid flying just as the person bent down to look, they were hit by the lid, covering their nose and screaming in pain.
Jiang Haoyan and I jumped out of the water tank and ran outside.
We ran a few steps, and the person did not catch up.
They were still crouching on the ground, holding their nose and whimpering, their voice sounded very familiar.
I leaned over to take a look: "Liu Xiong?" Liu Xiong stopped, looked at me in disbelief, and then rushed over to hug me.
"Family-- Qiao Dashifu-- You scared me.
What's going on?" Liu Xiong was really pitiful.
He was carried back to the village by a few old men and woke up in the evening.
There was only him in the house, and no one took care of him.
He walked out with a bewildered expression, seeing an old man standing at the entrance of the alley, stupidly looking up at the moon.
Liu Xiong went over to ask.
"Hey, I want to eat dinner.
Where are the people? Kidnappers don't usually starve people, right?" He reached out and patted the old man.
The old man slowly turned his head, disheveled hair, green complexion, and sharp teeth, looking similar to his own father who bit him last time.
"Damn, zombies!" Liu Xiong was immediately scared silly, turned around and ran quickly.
The zombie chased after him, but there were more footsteps in the next alley.
After a while, the zombie was attracted by the sound and went over there.
Liu Xiong took the opportunity to hide in the water tank.
After a while, someone lifted the water tank lid and Hou Lao Ban lifted Liu Xiong out.
"Get out!" There were several people with them, and Liu Xiong didn't dare to even fart and ran away immediately.
Then he opened several more water tanks in a row and found people hiding inside.
"Where did so many zombies come from?" Liu Xiong was very confused.
I sighed, "It's a long story.
Zombies are still manageable, but humans are scarier than zombies."
