I’m a zombie.
Right now, I’m standing at the door of my house.
The door closed tightly, as if there was no breath, I stood motionless in the doorway, from time to time there were zombies in the middle
, lying on my window root to look in, at this time I would
kick it away.
Yes, I became a zombie.
But I don’t know why, I still keep the memory of being a man.
I stood in front of my house, motionless, as if I had made my wife angry
when I was alive, and my wife liked to shut me out whenever she quarreled.
Then he sat at home and leaned over the window to watch me stand.
Unexpectedly, now that I have become a zombie, she has not changed this habit.
[1]
The zombie virus broke out suddenly, and it only took
three months from the beginning to the complete collapse. There is no time
for people to react. At first, people just thought it was a common disease, ordinary death of a few people, ordinary
news, ordinary hanging on the micro-blog hot search, and then ordinary panic caused
by ordinary netizens.
Unexpectedly, in just half a month, news came out that the situation in a city was out of control. What
people are more willing to believe is that because of the panic about the disease, some
people are out of control and attack people.
My wife turned to the news, looked carefully at the video of
people attacking people, and jokingly told me that this was not a zombie outbreak, was it? I told her at that time
that you had seen too many ***ing movies.
She smiled softly and gave me a ***ing kick.
She’s obviously always been stupid.
Unexpectedly, this time it turned out to be a prophecy.
The night slowly pulled down, the street lights that had not yet been cut off hit me, and my watch
was lost when I was fighting with the zombies. But I thought it was time for dinner
, and I glanced up at the window, where my wife was still watching me.
Through the blurred window, I saw the tears on her face, like a river flowing on
her face.
I turned and walked away.
Unlike in the movies, most of the zombies in reality are active during the day. I stayed at night
, and all the zombies who came to look for trouble had gone. The streets are empty. When I
turned around, I saw my wife’s mouth moving in a trance, as if she was shouting at me.
Ever since I became a zombie, at night, my senses slowly lost consciousness, probably because the central nervous system of the brain was destroyed. I waved to her and motioned her back.
She was still saying something to me, and I had no strength to stand any longer.
Zombies will lose consciousness at night. I need to find a place to rest now.
[2]
My wife is very hands-on.
I knew her in high school. She was my deskmate at that time. Her grades were very good and she had a lot of fun. As for me, my grades are far worse than hers. When the two of us meet, we are invincible all over the world. Male and female collocation, clear division of labor. I specialize in treating some punks who are not convinced by me, and she specializes in treating me. I got her in the
second year of high school, and her father found out a month later.
She came to me at school the next day and said, “My father wants to meet you.”
I said, “OK, my father-in-law, do you like Maotai or Lafite? Tomorrow I’ll come and make two cups.” “My father is a karate instructor,”
she said. “Last year he won a gold medal in the city’s karate competition.”
I It suddenly occurred to me that I’m going to have an operation for appendicitis tomorrow. I’ll see you next time. “When did your appendix become inflamed?”
She wondered? Why didn’t I know? I said, “If it doesn’t get inflamed now, it will definitely get inflamed tomorrow.” She kicked me in the crotch and flew into a rage. “Useless thing, are you going or not?” In front of the
egg and the appendix, I chose my egg. The next day I combed a good student’s hair in two parts, buttoned my white shirt to the top, and bought some fruit and milk to visit my noble father-in-law.
Later, I began to study hard and was admitted to a University with her. Later,
she always asked me why she turned over a new leaf after meeting her father.
I said, because your father said, I have only two ways, either to learn to go to college, or to learn Sunflower Treasure Book. When she heard
this, she smiled coyly and gave me my favorite big mouth.
From high school to three years after marriage, I don’t know how many slaps I got from her. She became more and more skilled and always beat me up.
But the most painful thing was the last time she hit me.
She slapped me hard in the face, and tears rolled out of her eyes and fell to the floor. She looked at me in tears and smiled. She said, “OK, then I will help you.” It hurts.
It hurt so much that I became a zombie, and I couldn’t forget the slap.
[2]
The next day, fine weather. Early in the morning, the sun shone on my eyelids. It’s like you want to roast me
to death.
I came to my door again. He slapped a zombie lying on the window of my house with a
big mouth.
I noticed that the windows on the first floor of my house had been wrapped in wires, and
through the gaps in the wires, I could see pieces of furniture firmly against the windows.
This must be my wife’s handiwork.
I looked up to the second floor. The windows on the
second floor were also covered with wire, only the bedroom, and half of them were left. Behind the
window, half of my wife’s face is exposed.
Her eyes were red and swollen, and I’m afraid she didn’t sleep all night. Also, in this
case can sleep, it is estimated that in addition to zombies, is the dead.
I slowly lowered my head, stopped looking at her, and concentrated on guarding my door. The windows of the
house are still intact, thanks to my far-sighted father-in-law, who chose
the hardest kind of glass. He said that he was afraid that when I was young, I had too many enemies outside. At night, someone would smash my windows and kill me. It’s not good to hurt his
precious daughter. At that time,
I was still rolling my eyes at him in my heart, and now I really want to slap myself in the ears
at that time, and then kneel down and kowtow to him, thanking him for his wily
old man.
But his father-in-law had died two years ago, and he could only kowtow to his grave.
I looked up at the window. A ferocious face appeared in the
window. The man in the
window grinned unnaturally, his eyes were dull, and blood foam kept
spurting out of his mouth and pasting on his face. Even I was shocked.
Ugly. No wonder no one wants to be a zombie. I
don’t know what my wife thinks when she sees my face.
Will you feel relieved.
Maybe she took two pictures secretly, and then pointed at me and laughed, laughing at the root
of her teeth, after all, her greatest pleasure in life is to laugh at me.
Thinking of this, I looked up at my wife again.
My wife was still by the window. She didn’t laugh at me, she didn’t take pictures of me, and she didn’t show
her teeth. [3]
Maybe I’m really ugly now. I’ve been standing from morning till dusk, and my wife hasn’t appeared by the window.
At dusk, I decided to get her something to eat.
In the past, every time I made her angry, I coaxed her to be happy, and then took her to eat a delicious meal, no matter what difficult and complicated diseases could be solved.
Standing in the evening, after driving away all the troublemaking zombies, I set out and walked to the life supermarket three kilometers away.
I walk very slowly, zombies at night, will lose strength, I once wondered, is it possible to do zombies, like plants, by photosynthesis movement?
Life supermarket door lying in a pile of zombies, probably asleep, push and pull the glass door, was locked tightly by a big chain.
I remember that two months after the zombie outbreak, the supermarket was permanently closed.
I looked around, picked up a big stone from the side, and banged it against the glass door. A few zombies heard the sound, climbed in front of me to bite me, I turned back to show them my bloody face, they turned around and fell down. The
glass door was smashed open dozens of times, and the harsh alarm sounded immediately, which was particularly harsh in the night sky. I walked in along the punctured glass, and the sharp glass slag went deep into my flesh. I walked into the supermarket, the alarm lights flashed, my head was dizzy, I took one side of the shopping cart, holding the supermarket shelves to go inside, the supermarket shelves were half empty, I could see that the boss probably fled in a hurry. I propped myself up and walked inside to the canning area, pouring handfuls into the shopping cart.
Vegetables and meat are already inedible and probably smell rotten in the supermarket.
But I can’t smell it either. Holding the shelf,
I went inside, picked up two bags of rice and a barrel of oil, and laboriously put them into the shopping cart. ***, I used to be very excited at night when I was a man, but now I’m a zombie. According to this spirit, I’m afraid I’m going to die. The consciousness in
my mind became more and more blurred, probably because there was no power of light. I shook my head hard and pushed the shopping cart out.
I have to get this stuff back to my house. The
night fell deeply, and the whole city was as silent as a dead city. Apart from the supermarket, from a distance, there was no light on in any house. The
once prosperous a city is now like a graveyard.
I pushed the shopping cart and walked slowly on my way home. Along the way, there are zombies crawling towards the supermarket, some of them fall down halfway, and some of them are still rubbing tenaciously, like half a caterpillar. I’m dying, too.
I just hung myself on the shopping cart, and it was just downhill, and I hung on the shopping cart.
On the appearance must be very ugly, but as the saying goes to what mountain to sing what song, I this
person in the dragon and phoenix to the zombie mountain, also had to hang. I hung all the way down the slope
.. And crashed into a tree across the street from my house.
I pulled my head out of the shopping cart with difficulty, thinking it was a ***ing good thing no one saw me at night
, or my reputation would be ***ing ruined.
Then I looked up and saw my wife.
Grandma’s. If you don’t see it for
a day, you will lose face. Did this little girl do it on purpose?
I pushed my shopping cart hard toward my house and it hit the wall with a loud
bang. My wife looked down in surprise to see what was
underneath. I smiled at her, and then my eyes went black and I fainted. Before I
passed out, it was her face screaming at me.
She said,
Grass mud horse! Be a zombie and smash my place! I # $% & & * # $!
You’re my wife. When I was admitted to a university, I was almost beaten to death. When I
was in middle school, I was very bohemian, known as the little white dragon in the waves. I always don’t go home at night, and I like to go shopping outside. I am more loyal and have strong hands-on ability, so the brothers in each gang are more face-saving.
Later, I decided to study hard, and my brothers with me naturally gradually faded.
But the debt once owed has not faded. The day
I got the admission notice from school with my wife, I was blocked on my way home. It was none other than my good brother, Ah Sheng, who took the lead.
A Sheng led a group of people to block me in the alley and said to me with a smile, “Boss, I heard that you were admitted to the university.”
I put my wife behind me and said, “You’re not here to celebrate with me, are you?”
Sheng took two steps toward me and said, “Brother, I came to see you off.” He looked at the group of people he had brought with him and said, “Boss, you’re not going to lose face, are you?”
My wife gently tugged at my sleeve behind me, and I quietly clenched her hand. I said, “Ah Sheng, why?”
A Sheng looked at me and smiled. I don’t know if the light was dim, but his eyes looked a little red. He said, “Boss, I’m not going to school.”
“Boss, I was expelled from school before the college entrance examination. I can’t even go to high school.”
My heart missed a beat. Ah Sheng raised his head again and looked at me. He suddenly grinned. His mouth was smiling, but his eyes were crying. He said, “Boss, do you know why?” Of course
I do.
A Sheng and I used to be good brothers who played together. We always went out in pairs. We enjoyed happiness together. When we were in trouble, we naturally worked together.
Later, I went straight and worked from six to ten at school every day. A Sheng can stand anything, but he can’t stand reading. Naturally, we are getting farther and farther away.
But we found Ah Sheng in the trouble we made in the society before.
Sheng took off his hat and smiled at me. He lowered his head. A scar loomed over his head. He said, “Look, boss.”. This is the gangster in B who fought with me two months ago.
He slowly put his hat back on, looked at me and laughed. The more he laughed, the louder he laughed. The more he laughed, the more tears came. He opened his mouth, and the tears were pouring into his mouth. He said, “But boss, it was you who provoked him before. He went to prison because he beat you. Why is it that after he was released, it was me who wanted revenge?”
“Why?”
“Why!!”
Sheng’s roar echoed in circles in the alley, and even his eardrums ached. He stared at me and smiled again. He said, “Boss, don’t say anything.”. Brother, let me see you off.
He waved his hand back, and several people pulled out sticks from behind them and walked closer and closer. He said, “Boss, I know you can fight very well, so I found more people. Do you mind?” What else can
I care about?
I put my wife behind me and said, “Ah Sheng, I understand that you hate me.”. You can hit me, but don’t hit my woman.
He nodded and said, “Boss, I know the rules of the road.”
I closed my eyes.
I owe Ah Sheng. The bastard in
B was sent to the Bureau for a year when he accidentally injured someone in a fight with me. After I came out, I was already preparing for the college entrance examination. He could not block me everywhere, so he had the idea of Ah Sheng. Two months ago, because of this fight,
Ah Sheng injured his head and went to the hospital first, but unexpectedly, the circumstances were so serious that he was expelled from school.
I owe him. I have to pay.
I closed my eyes and prepared to be beaten by Ah Sheng. However, the expected pain did not come.
My wife flashed behind me like the wind and firmly grasped a stick that hit my spirit cover. Then he threw his satchel at a gangster in front of him. Then he picked up two beer bottles from the ground and hit them in the middle, breaking them into two broken glass jars. With one hand, he shouted:
“I’ll see who the *** dares to touch my man today!”
A Sheng was stupefied, obviously did not expect my wife to be so fierce. A gangster who was not afraid of death came forward while swearing in his mouth. My wife rounded her arm and hit the bottle with her hand in an instant. The broken glass bottle grazed the gangster’s face and flew to the wall behind him. There was a crisp crackling sound, and the debris made a deep blood stain on the small gangster’s forehead. Everyone
was stunned in the same place.
My wife bent down to pick up the other half of the bottle that had just been broken from the ground, bumped it in her hand, raised her eyebrows and said, “How’s it going?”? Who else is going to come up and try?
The rest of the gangsters looked at each other, but no one dared to come forward again. Ah Sheng stared at me and suddenly smiled. He said, “Boss, you’re still like this.”. No matter what time it is, there are people who will stand up for you. Suddenly there was a commotion at the entrance of the
lane, a siren sounded from far to near, and several small hoodlums suddenly panicked, threw their sticks on the ground and ran away. The wife said calmly, “I sent a text message to the police when you were chatting.” I looked at Ah Sheng, who was still standing there, and said, “Ah Sheng, go.”
Sheng slowly moved his eyes from me to my wife and grinned. “We’ll see each other again, boss,” he
said. In
the dusky alley, his eyes glinted reddish under the brim of his hat. He turned around
and walked steadily step by step. As he was about to exit the alley, I called out,
Ah Sheng!
He didn’t look back. I said, “What’s the matter? Come to me. Don’t hurt yourself again.”
After that, I never saw Ah Sheng again.
I haven’t been in a fight since.
Since then, my wife has never lived a stable life.
Even if it’s just for a day.
[5]
I awoke from a birdsong. The heat of the
sun fell on my eyelids, burning my eyes red. It was so dazzling
that I couldn’t look directly at it. I stretched out my hand to block the sunshine. Suddenly, I found
something wrong with my hand.
… It’s a bandage. I took my hand in front of me and looked carefully. Yes, it’s a bandage or a good southern silk
. It uses high-tech silkworm weaving technology. Non-woven flowers are pure natural. The current price is 998 as long as
998. What the ***! Why do I have a bandage on a zombie’s hand?
I looked up at my wife’s windowsill.
My wife’s windowsill opened slightly, revealing her big eyes. When she saw me looking at
her, she snapped the window shut. Then the curtains were “brushed” and pulled
tight.
It must be her.
I sat there, touching the silk on my hand, and couldn’t help laughing. I stopped laughing in the middle
of it-I saw how ugly I was laughing in the mirror opposite.
I patted the dust on my pants, staggered up, and continued to stand in front of my house.
Because of my violence these days, there are not many zombies who dare to stop at my door recently.
It is estimated that although become a zombie, there is nothing in the brain, but the body memory is still
there, know to come to this place will suffer.
I looked up and looked around. A few years
ago, I made some money in business and bought this villa in the best residential area in a city
.
A few months ago, it was calm here, and the people who lived here were all
decent, and they all exude the corrupt temperament of the rich. Of course, they are still very temperamental-ghost-like temperament.
Just in the early spring, the weather is still a little cold, perhaps because of this reason, the body
of zombies is not easy to decay.
In the distance, a tree of cherry blossoms has spit out the bones. Seen from a distance, Yingying piled up
a tree.
Spring is coming, although people are half dead, but the flowers are blooming very well.
My wife likes cherry blossoms best. “I’m a young girl,”
she said. “I must like cherry blossoms the most.
Young girls like cherry blossoms the most, so I like cherry blossoms the most.” As he spoke,
he also had an arrogant expression on his face that he felt he was justified.
In fact, I know very well that she is trying to save money for me. When I
first started my business, I was as poor as a church mouse. When Valentine’s Day came, I didn’t even have the money to buy her flowers
. Flowers
all over the street cost money, only the cherry blossoms on the roadside are free.
So when I was empty-handed that year, the gift I gave her was free cherry blossoms.
History is so similar. A few years ago, I was empty-handed. A few years later, I
was empty-handed. I had no money to buy gifts on Valentine’s Day a few years ago, and Valentine’s Day
was over a few years later. I can’t buy a gift with money.
I couldn’t help walking towards the cherry blossoms. Fragile petals are thrown on the branches, pure white and pink interwoven flower pages are flashing under the blue sky
, and occasionally zombies pass by, but no one cares.
I picked a flower. On the day I proposed
to my wife, I also used cherry blossoms.
It was the first time the business had failed, and we had just escaped a wave of creditors who came to collect debts, and she and
I were holding our breath in the alley.
That day was the first time I broke up with her.
Then she slapped me in the face and said, “I’ll give you a second chance.”
I cried and said, “Marry me.” There is nothing
around except discarded cardboard boxes.
Except for a cherry tree.
[6]
I put the cherry blossoms I had just picked in front of my house, thought about it, took off the bandage
on my hand, and clumsily tied them together. After
becoming a zombie, my movements became very laborious, and my original flexible skills became
slow, like Alzheimer’s disease.
Just compared to other zombies, has been calculated too much.
The sun gradually went down, and all the zombies around staggered away. The moment the
moon climbed up, I finally fainted.
[7]
When I woke up, I was lying in our living room.
My wife stood far away, holding a baseball bat, wearing a helmet, wearing a big cotton-padded jacket, standing on the stairs to the second floor, hunching her back and looking at me warily.
As I slowly sat up, my wife pointed her baseball bat at me and called out, “You …” Can you still speak?
I opened my mouth to say, “Of course,” but as soon as I opened my mouth, it turned into,
“Eh … Ah Uh. Ah Ah
I’m wiping it! No one talked to Lao Tzu when he became a zombie, and Lao Tzu didn’t even know that he couldn’t speak.
And the sound is ten times more horrible than that group of zombies outside. Really hit the street!
My wife was so frightened that she dropped the stick to the ground, picked it up quickly, trembled at me, and picked up a dumbbell in one hand.
I quickly shut my mouth. She began again, trembling, “You …” If you can’t speak, you nod and shake
your head, you.. Do you know who I am?
I nodded my head. “Do you still have your own consciousness?”
She continued, trembling.
I nodded my head.
She took a step ahead, looked me in the face, and asked tentatively, “Do you feel the
urge to hurt people?”
I shook my head honestly.
The wife breathed a sigh of relief, but still did not dare to relax. She pointed to the wall
with a stick and said nervously, “If you …” If you can understand me, go and point yourself
out.
I looked at the wall.
On the wall, there is a family photo of us.
It was taken by me, my wife and my father-in-law. My parents died very early, and so did my wife’s mother
, so there were only three people in our family photo. There are only two people
now. The
photo originally belonged to my position, was forced to tear open, the gap is very messy,
a look is to use a lot of effort, I do not know why, and then stuck on. When I stuck it on, it looked wrinkled, and the color of my face was different. It
looked like it had been turned out of the garbage dump.
I glanced back at my wife, who was nervously holding a stick at me.
Say incoherently: “Go to …” Go and point it out yourself!
I got up from the sofa, staggered under the wedding photo, and raised my hand
clumsily, pointing to the wrinkled self.
My wife pointed at me with a stick and shouted, “That …” Then point out my father!
I pointed to her father. “What about me?”
She cried.
I moved my finger to the left and fixed it on her wedding dress.
She breathed a sigh of relief. I looked back at her. She was so nervous that she immediately picked up the stick
, pointed at me and said, “You …” You. You can sleep in the living room for the time being, but you can’t go
upstairs!
I shook my head.
She said, “Don’t..” Don’t go too far. To let you sleep in the living room is already a mercy. Don
‘t dream of going up to the second floor!
I shook my head, turned around and walked to the door of the living room, opened the door and went out.
It’s not that I don’t want to stay at home. But rather than staying at home, staying outside can better protect the safety of the home.
I sat at the door of the house, looking at the occasional zombies outside, after a while before the drive
, the recent zombies here less and less.
Occasionally, I saw some old zombies walking, suddenly fell to the ground, struggled
twice, and never got up again.
These old zombies lying on the ground, I will drag them away at dusk and
throw them far away, too far to see. But the strange thing is, they never seem to wake
up.
Originally, zombies will die that day?
I sat from day to night, and when the moon was about to climb up, I heard the door behind me
creak.
And then I don’t know anything.
[8]
As far as I can remember, in addition to proposing, I sent flowers to my wife once.
It was four years ago that I finally received the first money and signed the first contract willing to cooperate for a long
time. After I came out
of the company, I didn’t go home and went straight to the flower shop.
I didn’t know what kind of flowers she liked among the flowers she needed to spend money on, so I bought all the flowers in the
flower shop and asked someone to transport them to our house while she was at work. From the entrance to the bedroom, they were all covered with flowers. When she came home
from work, she opened the door and was stunned. Then she opened the door and went out again.
She looked at the door number and came in again. She stood at the door and shouted at me, “Li Mingri, explain to me
what this is all about.”
I walked towards her. I
remember walking toward her more times than I could count.
Only this time, it’s profound.
I walked up to her through the flowers, got down on one knee, and pulled a box
out of my pocket. She looked straight at me, as if she was too surprised to speak. I held the box up to her
, and I don’t know why, but my tears fell. I said,
“Wife,
please marry me again.”
That day, she was wearing a white dress.
[9]
When I opened my eyes, I was lying in my living room again.
My wife was not in the living room. I looked up at the clock in the living room. Four o’clock
in the morning. Woke up early enough.
No, that’s not the point. Wait! Why am I in my living room!
I suddenly sat up and bumped into the table with a bang. The table
made a loud bang. I was so frightened that I stood up and tried to hold it steady. Then I bumped into the cabinet with
a bang. The glass trophy of my previous basketball match on the
cabinet fell to the
ground with a crackle. It
broke all over the floor.
This is all earned by my hard work in those years! The glorious moment
of my youth! I squatted on the ground and touched the fragments, bared my teeth with heartache, beat
my chest and stamped my feet with regret, wishing it was me who was broken on the ground.
… But now that zombies are exploding, it’s no use asking for this trophy.
What’s more, now he has become a zombie.
When I thought about it, I felt much more comfortable. Then I stood up. When
I stood up,
I saw my wife. Yesterday
she had a baseball bat, today she had a kitchen knife, and in her left hand she had a grindstone, as
if she had just been sharpened. Is looking at me covetously.
I swallowed the saliva. I was thrown out again. What
my wife means is that I will be my zombie outside during the day and go home after sleeping at night. I can sleep in the living room, but I can’t go upstairs. The condition is that I will be responsible for all the food at home in the future. What else
can I say? I said yes quickly.
So today, after standing in the middle of the evening, I set off for the supermarket.
I packed more rice, more noodles, and frozen fresh food than last time. I didn’t expect that the power of the supermarket freezer had not been cut off. I fished out one bag after another of chicken legs, frozen beef and ribs from it, and put them all into the shopping cart.
In the living room, I saw that her face was very pale. Say a few words to me and hold the wall.
He seems to be very weak.
Wife’s body has been very good, do not know why will be so weak?
I loaded a lot of fresh, and went to the gift department, took some supplements, in addition to Melatonin did not take the other, took Melatonin I am afraid she hit me.
I loaded up my car and decided to go home.
I don’t know why, after I came out this time, my heart has been very nervous, as if something great was going to happen, I pushed the car slowly on the road, now it is dusk, the zombies on the road, one after another, all went to the suburbs, some of them fell to the ground in the middle
. The more
I walked, the more nervous I became. In the middle of the walk, I finally couldn’t go on.
I threw myself into the shopping cart and kicked my back foot hard, like that night,
all the way down the hill, all the way down, my heart was beating, as if it was about to jump out of my chest
. I was getting closer and closer to home-
a zombie was patting the window of my house. The window was broken. He put his head
inside again, his throat hoarse, as if he was reaching for something.
I gave a loud roar and hit my head.
“Who dares to bully my wife!!!”
[11]
Of course I didn’t make that sound.
As soon as I said it, I shouted, “Ah, ah, ah, ah!” Then a palm up, patted
the wretched zombie who picked up the window root. The
zombie’s head was stuck in the window, and I patted it, and the whole window fell down
.
I At dusk on the
moon, the zombie lay on the ground, motionless, not knowing whether it was dead or
dizzy.
I put the shopping cart in front of my house, carried it on my back, and laboriously carried it to the flower bed far away from home.
By the time I walked back to my door, I was so tired that I stood at the door, my shopping cart had not been dragged in, and I didn’t know if I should knock.
The door opened. A figure came
out, and the figure hugged me so tightly that I could feel the heat of her body before I fainted.
It’s the wife.
My wife has a fever.
[12]
My wife has a good constitution.
Her father is a karate instructor, and she is also a tiger father without a dog daughter, and a mouse son can make holes. Although he does not have such high attainments, his physical quality is still good. Once
I went out for an outing with her. It rained heavily on the way. When I came back, I had a fever, but she didn’t.
So now, how did she burn like this?
I had a short sleep this time, as if something was holding me up, and when I woke up, the clock in the living room was set for half past three. Very early.
I decided to go upstairs and see my wife.
I haven’t been home for a long time. The pictures of my wife and me hanging on the
stairs have disappeared, and my wife has not put new
pictures on them. The whole wall of the stairs is empty.
I came to the bedroom of my wife and me.
My wife is still sleeping soundly. By the faint moonlight outside the window, her face was red
, and she must still have a fever.
Honey, what’s wrong with you?
I rummaged around gently, trying to find medicine or hospital lists, but
there was nothing around except a few antipyretics.
Could it be somewhere else?
I felt the door handle of the wardrobe and gently pushed it open. When the
cabinet door opened, I was stunned. The moonlight
outside the window cast its shadow long into the floor of the house, and
the tiles on the floor responded to the bright spots, layer by layer, into the cabinet. In the
wardrobe, there are some small clothes for babies. Under the clothes was a small package wrapped tightly.
I slowly squatted down and picked it up. My wife wrapped it very carefully, opened a layer
of cloth, and there was a box, a box inside, and a box. Open
the last small box to reveal a piece of paper.
The moonlight shone in and made the paper shine.
It’s a hospital checklist confirming a miscarriage. The date on the
hospital says September 23. A month before my wife
and I divorced.
[13]
My wife and I divorced two months before the zombie outbreak. On the day of the
divorce, the weather was overcast, and the wife took a car to the Civil Affairs Bureau, with decent and delicate makeup on her
face.
She went straight to the window, signed it briskly, picked up the divorce certificate and walked away without looking back
. Before
entering the Civil Affairs Bureau, I made a lot of assumptions. I thought she would
yell at me hysterically, call me a brute, slap me in the face and point at my nose
, and maybe she wouldn’t come.
I just never thought she would be so calm. I chose to leave the house clean, but she chose to go through the legal process.
Her friends were scolding me. My friend patted me on the shoulder and said nothing. On the day of the
divorce, she was wearing sunglasses and high-heeled shoes, and the small heels of her shoes clattered on the floor
. Overbearing as usual.
Unexpectedly, a month before the divorce, she lost our child.
September 23rd.
I stood there stupidly and suddenly slapped myself in the face.
It’s September 23!
I remember that day.
[14]
It was going to be light soon, and I went out.
I know why my wife is so weak. Not long after
the miscarriage, zombies broke out, she had no time to take good care of, and lack of
food and drink, fear. The body is getting worse and worse.
I went to the supermarket, went straight to the innermost, picked up the brown sugar and red dates on the shelf, and put them in the shopping cart together
.
I went to the freezer again, took out the frozen chicken in the freezer, and kept stuffing it until the shopping cart could not be put down, and then stopped. When
I got home, the genius lit up slightly.
I walked to the door, pushed the car, opened the door-
my wife did not know when to sit in the living room sofa, the moment I opened the door, I saw her suddenly stand up from the sofa, looking at me, laughing, crying, and sighing slightly.
“You’re back.” She said.
[15]
Wife has no mother since she was a child.
Every Mother’s Day, other children made greeting cards and small gifts for their mothers, and she gave them to her father. For
a long time, her only dependence was her father, and then I appeared, and there was another me.
Two years ago, on my wife’s birthday, my father-in-law went fishing in the wild and prepared to give her a gift. When he came back, he had a car accident. When he was sent to the hospital, he was already dying. When
my father-in-law died, instead of calling my wife, he took me by the hand and said to me,
“Smelly boy …” I only have one baby girl.. You. To treat her well.. Don’t bully her. Otherwise, I.. I won’t let you go even if I’m a ghost.. Then he took his wife’s hand and put it together with mine. He looked at my wife and
said with a smile,
“Now …” Now, I’m relieved.. Nannan, you must be good. I I can go see your mother
.. Don’t cry. I I’m satisfied.. With
that, his father-in-law died.
On that day, my wife was heartbroken. After
that day, I was the only one my wife could rely on.
I’m sorry, father-in-law.
I’m sorry.
[16]
I don’t know why, but my wife has been very
gentle with me since the last time I went out in the morning.
She didn’t yell at me anymore, as if she was afraid I’d leave. Every time I stand outside, I have to comfort her first
, even if I stand outside, I can feel her worried eyes.
My wife prepared a recliner for me and put it outside the house so that I could lie down and look after the house.
I often lay on it and kicked the zombies who tried to come forward to check. Over
time, the zombies walked around my house. Everyone must know that there are only unreasonable zombies who
like to beat people. I often look up and look upstairs every once in a while. At this time, my wife will
stick her head out and look at me. Once on
a sunny day, there were no zombies around, and my wife even opened the window to hang the freshly washed clothes on the
balcony.
The sunshine was just right, and she stood on the balcony and looked at me and smiled.
I don’t know how long I haven’t seen her smile like this. Sufficient
supplies, every night, the smell of chicken soup wafted home, once I woke
up in the morning, I found a bowl next to me. Touching the bowl, it was still warm.
I drank it in one mouthful, and I almost spit it out. Before I could spit it out, I heard my
wife standing on the stairs looking at me and laughing. While looking at me and smiling, he was saying something
. Look at the shape of his mouth, it seems that he is talking about an idiot.
Then I got up and tried to hit her, and she was so frightened by me that she screamed and ran upstairs
in a panic, so that her slippers were stuck on her calf.
Sometimes when she was in a better mood, she would take the easel out and draw a picture
for me while I was asleep. When
I woke up, it was so ugly.
More often than not, as soon as I opened the door after staying at home at night, I saw her wearing an apron and
making soup in the kitchen.
It seems that we haven’t been so harmonious in a long time. From love, to marriage, and now I become a zombie, this is actually our most peaceful
period of time.
Sometimes, I also want to
go on like this, will it be good?
[17]
I got up early that day and looked at the time. It was only 3:45, and it was still
dark outside.
I got up and went out, ready to go to the supermarket to store some supplies.
I don’t know why, but I wake up earlier and earlier recently. I often wake up before four o’clock.
Correspondingly, the spirit of the day is getting worse and worse.
I shook my head, and as soon as I was distracted, I had a black halo in front of my eyes. I tried to concentrate
and collect the supplies I needed on the shelves. When I
pushed the cart out of the supermarket, I stopped. There is a white skirt in the cupboard at the entrance of the
supermarket.
I walked over askew and carefully removed the white dress
from the shelf and placed it under the shopping cart. As soon as I saw the price of 19,000 yuan, I said in my heart that I really
earned it! It’s my wife’s birthday in a few days. Thanks to the supermarket owner.
I pushed the shopping cart and walked out of the supermarket happily. It was a little bright. I lifted the ice fresh on the cart slightly. I couldn’t help looking at the skirt first. After a while, I lifted the ice fresh and looked at the skirt again.
Maybe my walking posture was too arrogant. As I walked, a piece of paper slapped me in the face.
I pulled the paper off my face. It was not bright, and it was always hard to see things. I pointed the paper at the bright place in the sky and looked at it carefully.
I feel like I’m in a dream. I read it again and again.
A leaflet slowly fell on his hand.
It reads: “If there are any survivors, please come to B city as soon as possible!”! Please come to B city as soon as possible! There are zombie shelters and medical teams here, please make sure that you are not infected!
[18]
I sat outside for a long time. Is
B city close to here? Is it far? It takes about a day to drive.
If my wife and I stay here all the time, the supplies in the supermarket will not last long and will soon deteriorate.
And I. Recently, my senses are always weak and weak. I used to be conscious all the time during the day, but recently I began to blur from time to time. Several times, when I was guarding the door, I began to be in a trance. The longest time I moved the clock outside my house was twenty minutes. Now the trance is only
a temporary loss of consciousness, but as time goes by, the time of trance is getting
longer and longer.
Besides, seeing a batch of old and infirm zombies walking down on the ground,
never got up again. How long can
I protect my wife?
Wife and I this zombie locked together, do not go out for a lifetime, is really happy
?
I looked at the white skirt in the shopping cart, which was white and pure in the morning light, symbolizing
holiness and redemption, flashing and moving.
The heart is also beating with each beat. It
made my chest hurt a little bit.
[19]
I decided to take my wife out of here.
I threw away my shopping cart, wrapped my little white dress in my arms, and set out to find a car, from a
city to B city, to say whether it was near or not, to say whether it was far or not, but if I walked there on foot, I might
as well hang myself at home. There are three cats and four dogs in
our neighborhood. These people have different identities and tastes,
but they all have one characteristic-they are rich. So the car is not difficult to find, but it has to have a key in the door.
But that’s the difficulty, and I found it by the detective genius.
I found an off-road car, which is not bad in the Zombie Breakout. There was also
a key in the car, and more importantly-it was not closed.
Unfortunately, there is a zombie, also in the car. I’ve seen
this guy. When he was a man, there were five people and six people. He was dressed in a fashion brand. He seemed to be a playboy of some
group. He was a zombie, but he was still dragging. One leg was on the steering
wheel, and the other leg was outside the window. It looks like he ran to the parking
lot and was about to start, but unfortunately he was attacked.
I said to myself, “I’m sorry, brother.” I went up and grabbed his leg outside.
It seemed that the brother was still in a dream. I pulled him and opened his eyes. “Ah!” The ground
was about to bite me. I punched him in the face, and he fell down again.
While he was down, I pulled his leg and pulled him under the car. He got up from the ground
and tried to bite me, but he couldn’t stand up. Only then did
I see clearly that his leg had already been broken.
From the look of the wound, it seems that it was bitten by a zombie attack.
I felt a little sorry, but it was almost dawn, not a sentimental time,
after doing zombies, hands and feet are very inflexible, I clumsily started the car,
all the way roaring out of the parking lot.
I didn’t go home.
The car turned left and drove back to the supermarket. I took enough instant food and water and stuffed them into the trunk.
By this time the day has been slightly bright, the zombies around have gradually awakened, a few tried to attack my trunk, I punched back.
It’s not too late.
I started the car and headed home.
The car roared all the way and rushed in the direction of home. My vision suddenly began to blur and I couldn’t see the road ahead. I shook my head hard, and the picture in front of me slowly became clear again. In an instant, home was in front of me. As soon as I stepped on the accelerator, the car screamed and stopped at the door of the house.
I quickly opened the door and got out of the car and rushed to the door.
I pulled the door open with a bang.
My wife was standing in the living room with a plate of hot eggs and fried ham.
She looked at me with a slight smile and began to say something. My head began to be in a trance again. Her voice was faint, like in a dream.
“You’re home.”
[20]
I’m going to leave here with my wife at night. Only at night, there are the fewest zombies. When
I got home, the clock pointed to six, and some zombies had woken up one after another outside and were walking in the street. I handed the leaflet to my wife and pushed the door out before I could explain to her.
Morning light has slowly flooded the sky, today is a cloudy day, no sun, behind the clouds, the zombies on the road also appear listless, as if not eating. Most of the living people in
this area have been infected in the early stage of the zombie outbreak. Presumably at that time, because the wife had just had a miscarriage, she did not go out to work and rested at home, but escaped the disaster.
Me? I’m even cooler. When I became a zombie, I was still in the police car.
Zombies hands and feet one step later, may now I have to put on handcuffs, a series of best prison gold package appeared here, fortunately, their hands and feet are still fast, let me keep a whole body.
Sitting next to me, is a small police, zombies rushed up, he is still holding a gun, trembling to shoot the zombies who broke into the door, killed a few, the bullets are gone. When
he was captured by zombies, he held out his hand to me. I still remember the despair in my
eyes. The moment the
zombie came up, my mind went blank. At the moment before death, many people will have a lot of things in their minds, some think
of their loved ones, some think of their loved ones, some think of the time
of their youth that has been wasted wantonly, and some think of the person they loved most and hated most later.
I didn’t think anything.
If there is a choice, I hope my wife will not have this time.
Whether she thinks of me
or not, it makes me sad.
[21]
At dusk, there were very few zombies. It was cloudy today, and not many people came out to be active.
When there was no one on the road, I pushed the door and went home.
But surprisingly, there was nothing in the living room, nothing in the luggage
, but there was a noise in the kitchen. I walked over in a daze, and my wife was cooking
.
Honey, are you going to run naked for your life?
I stood at the door of the kitchen and stared at her. My wife cooked the dishes and put them on the table
in the living room. She waved to me. I walked over in a daze. She poured a glass of wine in front of me.
She poured another glass for herself and drank it. “I’m not leaving,” he said
. As soon as
I put the cup down, I turned and went upstairs.
Finished women, no matter when they are not obedient, this kind of female protagonist who forces a lot of things in the TV series is generally a disaster for thousands of years, dilly-dally to the end, and finally those who should go or go, and those who should not die died a lot.
I went straight to the bedroom and collected her daily necessities at random. Then I opened the wardrobe and hugged some of her clothes. After I turned into a zombie, I became more and more clumsy day by day. These things were very difficult for me. I lifted her suitcase on the ground, but I couldn’t pinch the zipper.
The zipper was so small that I couldn’t pull it right, so I just lay on the ground and started talking.
At this time, the stairs rang.
My wife went upstairs.
She walked up to me, crouched down, picked up the clothes and went to the wardrobe. I stood up suddenly, grabbed the clothes in her hand and threw them on the suitcase. She crouched down and picked them up again. I grabbed them again. She grabbed her clothes as if I was going to take something away from her.
I shouted at her. I must have shouted badly, because I heard my voice, slowly as if it was crying. I saw my wife squatting down.
She opened the suitcase and stuffed the clothes in one by one.
I leaned against the door, breathing heavily, and stopped talking.
By the light, I saw something dirty on my wife’s face.
One by one, they fell to the ground and shone brightly on the tiles. [22]
Evening is fast approaching. The
car has been filled with food, enough for my wife to go to B city for ten days to eat and drink. I calculated that it would take about 18 hours to drive to B city. This car is not enough gasoline, so it must stop once in the middle. It is not normal to drive for 18 hours at a stretch. Considering my wife’s physical condition, it would take at least two breaks in the middle.
Moreover, they have to keep driving at night, and starting during the day is tantamount to committing suicide directly. That is to say, the wife has to drive by herself.
I have two boxes of Red Bull in the trunk, which is enough for my wife to support her spirit, but according to her physical condition some time ago, she has not recovered after the miscarriage, and it is definitely not possible to drive for a long time. It was also very dangerous for her to
stop and rest twice and find a hidden place during the day.
So, along the way, I still have to follow her, lest she be attacked.
I can’t tell my wife about these judgments. Since she decided to go on the road, she was very silent. I opened the door of the back seat of the car and sat in it. My wife sat in front of me. There were very few zombies
on the road. My wife started the car and drove smoothly all the way to the exit of a city. I know I’m going to fall asleep, as usual, but I can’t sleep completely.
When I opened my wife’s wardrobe, a piece of paper fell out of her clothes.
That’s a leaflet. It says exactly the same as the one I found this morning, except the date is even earlier.
Honey, you already know that there is a way to live in B city. And
you never left.
[23]
I slept in a daze in the car. I felt that I had stopped several times in the middle. Because I was thinking about my wife’s safety, I didn’t sleep soundly. When I opened my eyes, the time in front of the car showed that it had just passed 3:40. The road sign
outside the window is already out of a city and has just stepped into F city.
My wife has been driving without saying a word.
I once went to F city on a business trip, and I knew more or less about the road conditions. As soon as I entered the city, I would come to a gas station after a while.
I sat up and patted my wife on the shoulder to remind her to stop about two kilometers ahead, but my wife didn’t respond. I patted her hard again, and she tilted her head and fell directly on the co-pilot.
I gave a loud cry and shook her vigorously. As if she had been awakened, my wife suddenly sat up again, wiping her saliva and saying, “I’m sorry, I fell asleep carelessly.”
Fortunately, there were no people on the road, and they were probably all dead. I drove straight all the way, but nothing happened.
I patted my wife on the shoulder, compared two, and pointed to the gas gauge to remind her that there was a gas station two kilometers ahead. She looked at me and said angrily, “What time is it to compare? Isn’t it funny?”
I
The car drove all the way forward. Fortunately, it was not far from the gas station. I carefully observed the roadside. After a while, the red road sign appeared far away in the night sky. I quickly reached out and pulled my wife, pointing to the outside. She took advantage of the situation and finally understood what I meant. She stopped steadily at the gate of the gas station.
I put her on the seat and opened the door myself.
The gas station looked like it hadn’t been used for a long time. There were some zombies lying outside. I went around them, picked up an oil gun and began to refuel.
My wife must not want to go, so she didn’t go to catch up on sleep during the day yesterday, so she was so sleepy.
Now we have stepped into the F city. After crossing the F city, we will cross the corner of the C city and arrive at the B city.
In just two days, I will be separated from my wife. There are people’s consciousness, but can only associate with zombies, think about it is also very sad, but now the consciousness is more and more blurred day by day,
perhaps soon, I will be the same as those real zombies …
My head began to chaos again, consciousness gradually blurred, I quickly shook my head, Nima, in two hours the day will be bright, this time consciousness chaos is not fun.
We’re off again.
I took a box of Red Bull out of the trunk and gave it to my wife. The scenery on the roadside.
Back in the car, my wife had fallen asleep on the passenger seat. Under the light of the timetable in front of the car, her side face looked particularly tired. I went to the trunk and took the box of Red Bull out, and carefully patted her awake.
My wife sat up sleepily, opened the Red Bull and drank it down. I looked at the schedule.
It’s already four o’clock. Driving past the gas station in
F City, the shadow of the city has slowly emerged from the suburbs on both sides. I remembered that I had come here to socialize before. I had talked about business at a nearby golf course. There were relatively few people around. Taking refuge there would be relatively few people.
My wife drove along the road I pointed to in silence. The street lights on both sides of F City had not been completely destroyed. There were no lights on the roadside. The dim shadows rubbed in the suburbs near the golf course and on the edge of the city. Although there was a resort around, there were not many people coming, and there were not many zombies along the way. When we drove in, we only saw two lying on the ground. It’s empty inside.
Wife did not dare to drive into the parking lot, afraid of hidden zombies, also did not dare to drive into the resort, so parked in a clump of woods on the edge of the golf course.
Then she tilted her head on the passenger seat and fell asleep.
The trees were dense, with clumps of leaves, and the car was well hidden by the shadows of the trees. When
my wife fell asleep, I got out of the car clumsily, closed the door tightly, leaned on a tree not far from the car, and began to guard the door.
Since I started my business, I seldom go to the basketball court. Although I like playing basketball most, few people who talk about business like playing basketball.
Everyone wore suits and talked about their favorite sport, which was either rock climbing or golf.
I used to tell my wife that when people talk about business, the only thing they like is golf. My wife lit up a cigarette and said, “I think it’s pretty good. Compared to going to places like KTV, golf is already Qingshui Yamen.”
I quickly nodded and said yes, afraid to tell her, in fact, the golf course also has a beautiful sparring girl. I leaned against the tree, looking at the bright morning light in front of me. Suddenly, it was dark again. I shook my head hard. The world in front of me seemed to be in a trance.
Perhaps, my time was really running out. I
feel like I’ve fallen into a dream.
[24]
I saw my lawyer. It seemed that
I hadn’t seen him for a long time, but in my dream, the expression on his face was very grim. He said to me,
“General Manager Li, in this case, I still suggest that you turn yourself in and actively cooperate with the police investigation. The problem with this batch of drugs is too big. Dozens of people have appealed. If people are killed, the enterprise will definitely be closed down.” If you turn yourself in now, perhaps the punishment will be reduced.
I saw myself, sitting on the sofa, loosening my tie wearily, and asked, “Is there really no other way?”
He nodded his head seriously.
I said to him, “Go back.” Outside the
office, the twilight was coming up, and at what time the stars were shining in the sky. My cell phone rang, and I picked it up. My wife said to me in a virtuous way, “I made a roast chicken today, but this time it’s not burnt. Hurry back after work!”. If I go to prison, what kind of life will my wife live?
She has always been very self-reliant, and she also has a job, so she may not have to worry about the financial aspect. However
, the character has always been so strong. After
I went to prison, I don’t know if she would be affected by it.
Even if she does not have to be punished by law, according to his wife’s temperament, the people
around him will not be able to stand it.
I rang the lawyer’s phone, and without waiting for him to speak, I asked, “How many years will you get if you turn yourself in
?” When the
lawyer finished, I put the phone down. In the night sky
outside, the stars are still shining.
Before I turn myself in, I have to do one thing.
[25]
I leaned against the tree, dazed, with many voices in my ears. I seemed to hear
my wife calling, but I didn’t seem to hear it. I shook my head hard to make my consciousness clear
, but I couldn’t get back to the real world. I held the tree and stood up slowly.
When the cool breeze blew, my consciousness seemed to recover a little.
It was the wife who was screaming.
I suddenly turned around and looked at the car. A zombie came out of nowhere and
kept beating the window of the car. I shook my head, jumped over with an arrow, and grabbed the zombie. I lifted it aside. Her bloody face rubbed a trace of blood on the car. She called out a few times. Twisting half of her bloody body and struggling to bite, I kicked her in the face, she fell on her back to the ground, hit her head on a stone, and stopped crying. I know
this woman. She was the female manager of the resort before she died. He and I have exchanged glasses on the wine table several times.
Before death is a decent man, always speak softly and slowly, did not expect to become a zombie, is this honor.
If you still have consciousness, you can’t accept it.
I was breathing heavily, making sure she wouldn’t get up. Wind after wind blew the leaves around, rustling the branches and leaves.
Far away, I saw several zombies running towards here.
My wife rolled down the window and shouted at me, “Get in the car, you can’t beat me!” I pulled open the door of the back seat of the car, and as soon as I sat in, my wife suddenly started the car, and we rode deeper into the woods. The scenery
outside the window passed quickly backwards, and the wife, as if she had not yet recovered from the shock, kept panting, and the wind came in through the window one by one. She shouted in the wind, “*** you!”.
I don’t know how long it took, the sun slowly moved from the middle to the west, the index of the fuel gauge had slowly shifted from full, my wife hardly stopped, I knew she was afraid, her hands never stopped shaking, when we crossed the road, we startled a few
zombies next to us, they ran after the car. And a few ran from the front, she drove
all the way past, the blood of zombies, instantly covered the window.
The wiper slowly scraped the blood down again. Wearing scarlet shadows on the car windows.
Wife has been open, has been open, slowly, the sun went down, we drove to do not
know where, the scenery is desolate, zombies around began to fall in batches, in an
uncultivated wasteland, facing the sunset, but also some tragic.
We stopped at the edge of the moor.
Fuel tank has been in an emergency, fortunately, there are several cars not far away, still open the
door, just don’t know if there are zombies inside, but for me and my wife at the moment,
it is unfortunate.
I wanted to go up to see it, but my wife suddenly grabbed me.
She said, “Wait a minute.”
I stopped.
She opened the trunk, took out a can of beer, sat down on a grassy knoll in the wilderness, and said,
“Actually, I really don’t want to go.” It was
already dusk, and my consciousness was beginning to blur. I shook my head, trying to
clear my head. I heard her say,
“When I was a child, I was afraid of being alone.”
Since I was born, my mother died in childbirth. The kids all laugh at me, and sometimes when I see someone’s mother come to pick me up, I actually feel very sad. It’s always my father who pulls me, and then there’s you.
“a few years ago, my father also left, and you were the only one left.”
“Originally, there should have been a relative.” She smiled and said, “Forget it. It’s okay not to mention it.”
Her relative, by which I mean our unborn child. A few years
ago, when my father passed away, I was very sad, but when I thought of having you next to me, I survived. A few months ago, you were gone, and the baby was gone. At that time I thought, there’s no one left, so what’s the use of taking so much money?
She looked back at me and said earnestly,
“I really hated you at that time.”
I understand.
She added, “But lately, I don’t want to hate you anymore.”
“The world is so crazy now. I’m really tired. I don’t want to find out what’s right or wrong. Maybe I don’t have much time. I just want to have a few happy days in my remaining time. Whether I hate it or not, I don’t want to waste any more energy.”
Her face has become more and more blurred in front of my eyes, I have reached the limit of my body, the moon slowly slid up from the sky, I can no longer support, straight back-the last line of sight, is my wife looking at the moon talking.
“If I really go to B city, will I really be happy?”
[26]
I don’t know if my wife will be really unhappy when she arrives in B city.
I only know that recently, my body is getting worse day by day.
Recently, I am more and more confused time, longer and longer, perhaps one day wake
up, I became a real zombie.
In that case, even if I stay with my wife. What does it mean
to her?
[27]
By the time I opened my eyes again, my wife was on her way.
She did not know where to add oil, perhaps while the zombies were asleep, from someone else’s
trunk, but also pulled me into the back seat of the car, when I woke up,
it was already bright.
My wife hummed a song while driving, as if she was in a good mood.
I struggled to get up from the back seat. The sun outside was so warm that I could hardly open my eyes
. I blocked the sun with my hands and narrowed my eyes to get used to the scenery outside. Uh?
Isn’t that right? Why does
this scenery look so familiar?
I narrowed my eyes and looked carefully again.
I go Isn’t this the way back?!
I suddenly sat up from the car seat, hit my head with a bang, and the car body was
shaken by the shock. With a calm face, I reached out to pull the door, which had already been locked
. I raised my hand and banged the window. The windows of the car
were smashed with a dull sound.
I went crazy and smashed the window. I must have bled. I punched and punched, and there were blurred blood marks on the
glass. The scenery
outside the window was blurred into a dirty red.
The car squeaked to a halt.
[28]
It seems like a long time ago, when my wife and I filed for divorce, she was still cooking. As soon as
I said the word divorce, she threw the spoon out and hit me in the face. On the spoon, there was a piece of hot rice that had just come out of the rice cooker, and it hit his
face, burning his skin. “I don’t agree,”
she said.
I said, “I’m in love with someone else.” “I don’t agree,”
she said.
I took the divorce papers out of my briefcase and said to her, “I am at fault. The
house, the money, and the car are all yours.”. Let’s divorce. With
that, I turned and walked away. There was a faint sob from my wife
behind me, and I didn’t look back. I cried like a
***ing idiot myself.
Wife. I’m sorry. I’m always doing things you don’t like.
My name is Li Mingri. My father said when I was born that he wanted me to be happy every day
.
Whether it is before the outbreak of zombies, or after the outbreak of zombies, I almost have no tomorrow.
But, wife.
I hope you have.
[29]
The car began to move on again, only this time in the direction of B city.
Since I smashed the window to force my wife to stop, my wife never spoke or laughed, but turned around in silence. Drive in silence.
We walked along, stopping occasionally, and in the deserted wilderness, my wife took out the oil from the trunk and added it.
She had something to eat, and sometimes she suddenly stopped driving and looked at the road ahead without speaking.
The night is coming up little by little.
We’re getting closer to B city. I met very few zombies
along the way. When the stars were hanging in the night sky, my wife found an empty wasteland. We stopped here.
GPS shows that it is less than 30 kilometers away from B city.
She looked back at me and said, “Husband.”
“Honey, can you come and hug me?”
She opened the door and stepped out of the car. Then she opened the back seat door and sat next to me. She hugged me tightly and buried her face deep in my chest.
Outside is a vast sea of stars. I didn’t reach back to hug her. I had the wound of hammering the window this morning on my hand. Her hair
was under my nose, emitting a faint fragrance.
My chest is a little tight.
We all know that B city is coming soon, and tonight may be our last
night together.
My wife was holding me. Her shoulders were trembling slightly. She suddenly looked up at me. I
saw big tears forming a barrier in her eyes. She said, “Bite me. Let
me be a zombie with you.”
I gently put my hand on her hair. A photo slipped out of
his wife’s pocket and floated gently on the seat.
It’s a picture of us in high school, and I can’t believe she still has it.
I picked it up slowly, and my wife was crying. When she wasn’t looking, he put it in his chest pocket
.
Tomorrow will leave, wife, you will have tomorrow. But these memories, don’t
take them away.
Have a good life in the future.
The wind beat against the windows and no one spoke. If I can, I really hope not to sleep
tonight, I do not know how many nights I can waste.
We didn’t speak. The wind came in through the window and flew our hair.
[30]
The next morning, we continued on our way.
My wife deliberately drove very slowly, but I still sat in the back seat. Recently, my consciousness has become
more and more absent-minded. I don’t know when I will lose consciousness and become a real zombie
.
I don’t want to hurt my wife. The scenery
along the way has been receding, and my wife stopped several times in the middle. Stop and go, finally
, we reached the edge of B city.
Two kilometers further on, it is B city.
My wife slowed down the car slowly. From a distance, she saw the striking sign of B city. The closer the car
was, the clearer it was. A high barrier had already been erected at the entrance of B city, and it seemed that
there were still people guarding it with guns. I saw my wife’s car coming. He pointed the
gun at his wife’s car.
I slowly squatted in the back seat.
If anyone sees me in my wife’s car at this time, I will not let her in.
Sure enough, after a while, a deep roar came from the opposite horn in the distance:
“Drivers ahead, please stop immediately.”. Stop where you are. Put your hands behind your back. We
need to test. My wife looked back at me.
Her beautiful eyes shed tears, from the first
day I became a zombie, to the last day of our departure, her tears never stopped.
I smiled at her, which must have been an ugly smile, and then I waved to her.
Goodbye, my wife.
Her eyes were red and she looked at me. Never said anything else, I held
my cat tightly in the back seat, unwilling to let others see me, let alone let her look at me again.
I heard the door of the car snap open after a pause. For a moment, he closed it gently
.
My wife is gone.
I can’t see her back. I can’t see her back.
I hugged myself tightly and smelled the decay of my body, and my consciousness began
to blur again. I raised my eyes and wanted to see my wife again through the cracks. But I can’t even
keep my eyes open.
I forced my vague consciousness and shook my head, trying to wake myself up
.
Suddenly, there was a scream outside the car.
It’s my wife!
[31] a zombie came out of nowhere and stumbled from a distance. His wife
screamed and ran back. B city defensive soldiers immediately picked up the gun, a whoosh
of bullets like rain hit the ground behind the zombies, back, zombies staggered a few steps,
but did not stop.
I yanked open the door of the car and rushed out.
“Here’s another one!” From the loudspeaker on the
high platform came the cold sound of giving instructions, whoosh! A bullet went
straight into the ground behind my heel, and I pounced on the zombie
behind my wife-
the zombie was pressed to the ground by me, and I held him down, and he
bit me with his mouth wide open. “Ho!” Came from a hoarse throat! I reached over to cover
his face, and he bit my hand, and he almost bit my hand off. With a long roar,
I threw him to the ground.
The wind came and blew the clinging hair off his face, revealing his face.
He rolled up from the ground, looked at me, and roared like a wild animal. I
stayed where I was.
It’s Ah Sheng.
[32]
Ah Sheng walked towards me step by step. Two meters away from me, he stopped. There was confusion on
his blood-stained face. He seemed to be trying to
identify something. He took two more steps towards me and suddenly cried out.
He approached me excitedly, and there was a flash of pain in his ferocious eyes. At that
moment, I seemed to have an illusion, as if Ah Sheng’s mind was awake at that moment
.
Sheng opened his mouth to me one by one, and his ugly face actually shed tears.
He seemed to be saying something, but I couldn’t hear it clearly. I tried to recognize his mouth shape and figure
out what he was saying.
He said,
I want to go home.
My tears also fell down.
Sheng, we don’t have a home.
He pounced on it with a roar.
In the distance, a bomb flew towards us.
I closed my eyes.
Sheng, I owe you. I have to return it.
But as long as I’m alone, it’s enough. [33]
I see the past again. Two months before the zombie outbreak.
I saw my wife, who was not as arrogant as usual. Her eyes were red and she pointed at me with
her fingers. She was so hard that her fingertips were trembling slightly. She said, “Li Mingri
, are you serious?”
I saw myself, naked, just getting out of bed, and there was a girl
lying on the bed, and I heard myself say, “Really, let’s divorce.”.
I saw my wife suddenly laugh, and two lines of tears rolled down her eyes,
except when her father-in-law died. This was the first time she cried. I saw myself put on my
clothes, get up and go to her, and she slapped me in the face. Then he smiled and said,
“OK, then I will help you.”
It hurts.
I saw her resolutely turn around and leave, walk out of the hotel and stop a taxi.
The taxi driver asked her several times where she was going, but no one spoke.
She fell on the back seat, her body gradually fainted a piece of red, down her calf, dripping
, falling to the ground.
My wife had a miscarriage. I lied to her
in order to get her to divorce, get off and live a good life.
The price is our children, gone.
I didn’t even know she had a baby.
As if it were only a few months ago, as if it were a long time ago.
I’m a ***ing asshole.
Bullets fell on us like rain. Ah Sheng bit my throat. I
saw my blood dripping on the ground, just like the blood flowing under my wife on that day, September 23
.
It hurts. The
heart stirs up the general pain. With a roar,
I pushed Ah Sheng away. Ah Sheng swooped up and pinched
me tightly with his hands.
My body was blown up high, facing the warm sun, flying to this strange and
familiar world, flying to the bullet, I held Ah Sheng’s hand tightly with my hand, my bloody
throat roared, the bullet shot into me, and I shouted. He pushed
him away, and a stray bullet hit his head, spilling blood on the ground.
I looked up at the sky
and the light of the sun was so warm. On the
ground, a large number of healthcare workers and rescue workers
from survival stations were seen running towards this side in groups.
A bullet grazed my hair and went straight into my heart. The picture on the
chest was torn apart.
I flew to the ground.
Wife, I come to atone for my sins.
[34]
In a trance, I saw my wife shouting at me. She ran over and held me in her arms. She must have cried. Big tears fell on me. It was so hot. I never knew that tears could be so hot in my life.
Her mouth moved, and I tried to recognize it, but I couldn’t see what she was talking about. She hugged me so tightly that the bones of my whole body hurt. My vision gradually blurred. I could not see her expression clearly. I could only see the blue sky through her shoulder. It was really a good day.
Ten years ago today, the sky was blue, the sky was clear, and there was no breeze.
It was the first time my wife and I met. The world in
front of us shrinks slowly, shrinks infinitely, and finally gathers into a black spot. At the moment of losing consciousness, my hearing finally became clear. I heard her shrill cry. I had never heard her cry like this in my life. I had never heard such a heartbreaking voice. I finally heard what she had been saying.
She said, “Honey, please don’t leave me.”
[35]
In a blinding light, my wife came to me. Wearing a unique white skirt in the world and carrying a schoolbag,
she skipped from the school
gate.
She seemed to have lost her way. After turning around for a long time, she found me and trotted all the way up to me
. She looked up and asked me,
“Hello, classmate. My name is Monday. Do you know how to get to the A1 teaching building?” The
dazzling sunlight hit her face, which almost made me dizzy and could not see
her clearly.
My voice was in a trance, and the words I said were getting farther and farther away, as if everything was
in a dream. As if everything had never started, and as if it had been ten thousand years.
I said,
“Hello, my name is Li Mingri.”
