Chapter 0786 Weng Lan’s Story—Big Belly
United States, November 2014, in a small forest in eastern Nebraska.
After being depressed for more than four months, Qin Qicai finally had a smile on her face. At this time, she was giving directions to Weng Lan, who was sitting on a big log.
"Nebraska was an important agricultural base in the United States before the end of the world, and it was the flattest place among all states. My family came here when they first arrived in the United States, and they settled in the United States after the end of the world. And eventually the Seven Swords City was established.
When the apocalypse first broke out, a large number of refugees poured into Nebraska, forming a huge gathering of survivors. They built a large city called Giant Forest.
Four years after the end of the world, the city of Giant Forest encountered a huge zombie wave. Thirty million people in the city fought with the zombies for more than three months. In the end, only more than four million people escaped. The others were either eaten or turned into zombies. Zombies.
Five years after the end of the world, the zombies that gathered in Nebraska left and formed a zombie territory at the border of the United States and Canada. Those who escaped from the Giant Forest City returned to the ruins of the old city and built a new huge city wall, and the Giant Forest City was reborn.
Today this big city is one of the few cities in the United States that is not affiliated with the gang alliance, with a population of almost 10 million.
When we walk three hundred miles to the west, we should be able to see the giant city wall with a height of 100 meters. Once we enter the city, we can take a short rest and send a message for help to Seven Swords City.
It's a pity, because the zombie territory has disappeared, there are already many zombies roaming in Nebraska. If we encounter a few hundred, we can fight them. If we encounter too many, we can only escape and change our route. I don’t know how long it will take to walk these three hundred miles.
And those gangsters are also a problem..."
At this point, the smile on Qin Qicai's face faded, and she frowned and said, "I don't know who is interested in you. They have been chasing you all the way. It seems that I really vow not to get you back." If you don't give up, why not do it for a woman? You are not a stunning beauty!"
Weng Lan has raised lips. Although she is indeed not a peerless beauty, she is still pretty, right? Being told by Qin An's illegitimate son that he is not good-looking really makes him feel a little unhappy! Could it be that... Qin Qicai's mother is a peerless beauty?
Although Weng Lan is already very familiar with Qin Qicai, she still hasn't asked him about what kind of woman his mother is.
Weng Lan has a bit of an ostrich mentality. She feels that the less she knows, the less she might care...
Looking at the handsome man in front of me, he seemed to have lost a little weight, looked more haggard, and became more mature and manly.
Ever since Qin Qicai used his six swords to kill the six major city defenders and scare off hundreds of besieging gang members, Weng Lan, Catalina, Jax, Dabai and Qin Qicai began their escape career .
They headed west, were trapped in zombie groups twice, and were besieged several times by masters sent by the gang alliance. Fortunately, Qin Qicai, who had just completed five mutations, bravely killed the enemy. Although his seventh sword never appeared, He is still very brave with six flying swords. Otherwise, Weng Lan, Katarina brother and sister, three ordinary people without powers, really don't know how many times they would die.
Of course, the mad dog Dabai is also very fierce. This silly old man has become Weng Lan’s best protector. Anyone who is hostile and wants to come within five meters of Weng Lan will be bitten to death by him. The Katarina brothers and sisters will also be killed. Because of this, I got shelter and was able to survive the hardships and dangers along the way.
For four months, Qin Qicai has been very sad. All three of his brothers died, not only because of Weng Lan but also because of himself. So Qin Qicai needs some time to let go of his emotions.
During this period of time, Jax became a fan of Qin Qicai. He studied the unique pre-apocalyptic Chinese kung fu book called "Wing Chun" he got from Qin Qicai every day, and vowed to be a great hero, even if You can't kill everyone like Qin Qicai, but you must fight like a man.
Catalina also realized her wish, obtained Qin Qicai's body, and ended her virginity career. This naturally made Catalina happy, but at the same time she was also very disappointed because she knew Qin Qicai didn't love her. He just needed something to comfort a wounded heart, and a woman was obviously good medicine. Catalina is not someone who gets discouraged easily. She feels that one day she will be able to get Qin Qicai's true love. To this end, she must continue to work hard. Because Qin Qicai likes to speak Chinese on weekdays, Catalina's daily homework now is to talk to Qin Qicai. Weng Lan learned to speak Chinese together.
Weng Lan is a pregnant woman. She doesn't move except when she is fleeing. She just finds a place to sit or lie down so that her physical strength can be quickly restored and fully prepared for the next escape.
At this time, seeing Qin Qicai's brows furrowed, Weng Lan was afraid that Qin Qicai would think of his dead brother again, so he hurriedly changed the subject.
"Qicai, look at my belly. I should only be pregnant for more than six months now. Why is it like this? And sometimes I can feel the fetal movement, as if they have already taken shape! Hey, that one called Jusen Is there an obstetrics and gynecology department in the big city? I really want to check it out."
Weng Lan has not yet told Qin Qicai that she was frozen for twenty-two years. After all, this is too shocking. She was frozen when she was less than two months pregnant, and four months passed after she was thawed. In other words, she should be considered six months pregnant, right? Weng Lan himself was not sure.
Qin Qicai turned his attention to Weng Lan.
I saw that the shoes on her feet had holes in them, and they were dark and worn. The pants were jeans picked up from a garbage dump a few days ago. They were very baggy and did not fit at all, although they were washed very clean. But she still looks very worn; her upper body is actually a brand new black down jacket, which Qin Qicai stole when passing by a small gathering place. Now that the weather is getting colder, there is no decent clothes to protect the belly of pregnant women. How can that work?
Qin Qicai felt that she had fallen and became a thief for her own father's eldest wife. The most important thing is that the child in this woman's belly does not yet know whose child it is. Qin Qicai has never asked Weng Lan this question, and Katrina and her sister have never mentioned it.
So Weng Lan's belly at this time... is really surprising. It's not that Qin Qicai has never seen pregnant women before, and she has seen many pregnant women, but even the pregnant women lying in the delivery room who are about to give birth don't seem to have as big a belly as Weng Lan now. ah! Isn’t this woman about to give birth? Could it be that she would be born prematurely in more than six months? The twins aren't so anxious, right?
Qin Qicai, who suddenly realized that Weng Lan might be giving birth, turned pale.
Nowadays, in this wilderness, you can encounter zombies just walking around, and people from the gang alliance may not always come after you. What if Weng Lan really wants to give birth?
On one side, Jax and Catalina were preparing lunch, while Dabai stood three meters away from Weng Lan and stared at the sky.
Qin Qicai glanced around with a sad face, and the roar of zombies could still be heard faintly outside the forest.
Sighing softly, Qin Qicai whispered to Weng Lan: "We have walked a lot these days, so let's continue to rest here. We will set off at twelve o'clock at night. We must get to Jusen as soon as possible. In the city, there is no place to give birth in the wild, just hold on!"
Weng Lan was a little depressed. Can she persist in having a child?
And there is an old saying about pregnancy in ten months. Although many women before the end of the world basically gave birth in nine months, and there were twins who were born by caesarean section in more than seven months, but it was unheard of to give birth just after six months!
"Qicai, don't worry, I'm probably just a little bit belly-big, after all, we're twins. But it would be good if we could go to a safe place in advance and find an obstetrician and gynecologist to check it out later. I think Now I’m in pretty good condition, I don’t have morning sickness or other adverse reactions, so I probably won’t give birth!”
Won't?
Qin Qicai could only pray and hope so.
He is a person from the post-apocalyptic era, and his thinking is completely different from Weng Lan. In today's world, nothing will happen!
Weng Lan was glad that she still had time to rest. She felt that she was not a squeamish woman, but four months of running away was really hard, and she basically had no rest until here.
They arrived at this small forest in the morning. Because they had not slept for the previous two days and two nights, Wen Lan lay directly on the temporary bed Qin Qicai built for her with branches and weeds and slept all morning. .
Qin Qicai and Catalina slept alone for about four hours. Someone always needs to be alert to the surroundings. Although the weird old man Dabai doesn't need to sleep, he doesn't know how to be on duty.
Generally speaking, this place is not bad. The zombies wandering around outside the forest are a kind of natural barrier. It is impossible for at least a large number of enemies to enter the woods without alerting them.
…
"Master, the meal is ready. How about eating?"
At this time, Catalina walked up to Weng Lan and Qin Qicai and spoke in blunt Chinese.
Weng Lan, Catalina's language teacher, smiled bitterly and shook her head. What does "eating well" mean? This is not how I was taught.
Moreover, Qin Qicai actually asked Catalina to call him "Master"? Did he really think that he was the prince of the Qing Dynasty? It’s so sour!
By this time, Jax had already brought the food over.
Today’s lunch was very sumptuous, including wild vegetable and pheasant soup and autumn nuts.
Several people have been eating either grass roots or field mice and earthworms in the past few days. Now that they can eat such rich food, they feel very good.
Jax smiled and spoke in English: "It took me a lot of effort to catch this pheasant. In fact, it would be more delicious if it was grilled. Unfortunately, there is only one. If it is grilled, it will not be enough for us to eat. I can only make soup with wild vegetables. No matter what, I should thank God for the gift!"
After speaking, he took out a few old but clean small iron basins from the backpack behind him, and then served everyone with rice.
Weng Lan got a bowl with chicken legs. She is a pregnant woman and naturally needs to be taken care of.
After eating a few bites of green vegetables, Weng Lan said that Jax's cooking skills were very good. When he was about to eat the chicken legs, a sound of footsteps came from the forest, causing everyone to quickly silence and look at each other.
Who is approaching? Zombies or enemies?
