Chapter 42 Time Stands Still
"You didn't die, how could the monkey die?" Zhao Yin asked loudly.
This was very ruthless, but it was his truest thought at the moment.
"Woo woo... little monkey, little monkey is trying to protect me... woo woo...!" Song Xiaodao saw Zhao Yin and seemed to have found support, crying breathlessly.
"Master, there are too many zombies, and we almost couldn't come back. It was the monkey that activated the frenzy ability and led us to the edge of the industrial park, but it was also exhausted and led us... away from the zombies..."
Lao Niu's voice was very depressed.
Zhao Yin didn't expect that the monkey still had a spirit of sacrifice.
"Did you see it die?"
"No... I didn't see it!" Song Xiaodao shook his head quickly.
"Master, although I didn't see it either, the monkey had no supplies at the time. It was a monkey that stopped the zombies alone, and it was probably difficult to survive...!"
Zhao Yin calmed down, suddenly thought of something, closed his eyes, and sensed the soul of the contract in his mind.
After a while, Zhao Yin opened her eyes and said with certainty: "The monkey is not dead yet!"
In her mind, the breath of the little monkey is still there!
In the previous life, Lin Tianfeng mentioned to Zhao Yin that the contract master and the contract beast can sense each other's life and death.
It's just that the time is too long, Zhao Yin almost forgot it, and has never paid attention to this matter recently.
"Really?" Song Xiaodao stopped crying immediately and raised her little face with tears in her eyes.
The old cow was also shocked and looked up at Zhao Yin.
Although they had been with the little monkey for a short time, they had experienced life and death together.
Nothing can enhance friendship better than living and dying together!
"Come and eat something, wait for the old cow's wounds to recover, and then we will go find the monkey." Zhao Yin said.
A few hours have passed, and since the little monkey is not dead, it should have left the corpse group.
Now the only strong fighting force around Zhao Yin is the old cow. It has not recovered from its injuries, and it is very dangerous to approach the corpse group rashly.
Zhao Yin took out the chestnut leaves and piled them in front of the old cow, and it immediately lowered its head and ate.
The chestnuts in the pot had already been cooked into a paste.
Zhao Yin found two large bowls from the back of the old cow and filled one bowl for Song Xiaodao: "Eat it."
Song Xiaodao wiped his tears and took the bowl, but stared at the fire with dull eyes without eating a bite.
Zhao Yin also filled a bowl for himself, and left all the remaining chestnut paste to the old cow.
Seventy or eighty roasted chestnuts were already cooked. Zhao Yin gave three to Song Xiaodao and kept five for himself. The rest was divided into two parts, half for the old cow, and half... he left for the little monkey.
"The E-level mutant beast has a big appetite. I don't know if the monkey is hungry." Zhao Yin muttered in his heart.
Shaking his head, he lowered his head and started eating.
"Zhao Yin, I can't eat it." Song Xiaodao said after a while.
"If you can't eat it, don't eat it. If you are surrounded by zombies and don't have the strength to run away later, don't expect me to save you." Zhao Yin drank the chestnut paste and said vaguely.
"If we meet danger again, will you still abandon us and run away alone?" Song Xiaodao asked with complaint.
"Do you want me to die with you?" Zhao Yin said.
"..."
Song Xiaodao was silent and lowered his head to drink chestnut paste.
After a meal, the old cow's injuries had healed almost completely. Although the effect of chestnut leaves was not as good as sandwich bread, the old cow's injuries were not fatal.
Zhao Yin did have a piece of sandwich bread, but he planned to leave it for the little monkey.
"Let's go back to the industrial park." Zhao Yin did not plan to rest.
Although he had not closed his eyes for two days and one night.
...
Three hours ago.
In the endless tide of corpses, the little monkey looked at the back of the old cow carrying Song Xiaodao away, and a touch of human sadness appeared on his face.
A zombie bit the little monkey's neck and immediately tore off a large piece of flesh.
It screamed in pain, squeezing the last bit of potential to maintain the berserk ability, and swung the stick to smash all the zombies around it.
In the black blood rain, the huge monkey trembled all over.
After it took a short breath, the zombies surrounded it again.
With the bloody smell on the monkey, all the zombies became more and more crazy.
At this time, the remaining energy in the little monkey's body could only support a few swings of the mace at most.
Boom!
The zombies beside him were smashed away again, and the little monkey trembled more and more. At this time, he no longer had the extravagant hope of leaving, but only hoped to hold on for a few more minutes.
It was just an F-level mutant beast, and the berserk ability that exceeded the limit of endurance devoured its internal organs and shrank them, consuming its vitality all the time.
Just when the little monkey thought he was going to die...
Suddenly, all the zombies around him quieted down.
At this moment, the whole world seemed to be still.
All the zombies stood still, as if they had turned into stone sculptures.
The little monkey didn't know what was going on. At this moment, a hoarse and unpleasant voice came from his ears.
"Are you still not leaving?"
The little monkey looked back and saw zombies everywhere, where were the human figures?
At this time, the voice became urgent: "Go, hurry...!"
The little monkey didn't dare to hesitate, and took a pair of long legs, leaping seven or eight meters in one step, and rushed out of the industrial park desperately.
Without the obstruction of the zombies, the little monkey rushed out of the industrial park in less than a minute.
At this time, its last potential was finally exhausted, and the next moment, its huge body shrank rapidly.
The originally thin body became even thinner due to the forced activation of the second superpower. From a distance, it looked like a child's skeleton stained with blood.
The little monkey couldn't even lift the mace. The heavy armor was like a mountain pressing on his body.
Roar, roar, roar!
At this moment, the group of corpses behind him suddenly moved again!
It was as if they had just taken a nap. For a moment, every breath of air was filled with a terrifying and oppressive breath!
The little monkey looked back and saw the zombies rushing at him like ants.
It pulled itself together, immediately threw away the mace, took off the heavy armor on its body, and ran forward with difficulty.
In a panic, it didn't figure out the direction.
The group of corpses was already a long distance away from the little monkey. The slow-running zombies gradually lost the little monkey's breath. In addition, the little monkey was too small, and from time to time he dodged into the gaps between the ruins. As the little monkey fled forward, the zombies chasing behind him gradually fell behind.
In the end, only a dozen zombies were left hanging behind.
The little monkey didn't know how long it had been running. It squinted its eyes listlessly and wanted to continue walking, but suddenly it went dark.
With a plop.
The little monkey fell to the ground.
The sky was already bright at this time, but its vision was blurred.
In this desolate world, it didn't know where the only human who could depend on it was at this time.
It lay on the ground, still bleeding, vaguely knowing that it was going to die.
The little monkey tilted its face and wanted to see the world again, but a meteorite on the ground blocked all its sight.
It suddenly missed Zhao Yin a little!
In the dark, the little monkey could feel that the master was still alive.
He was still alive, so good!
The little monkey slowly closed his eyes.
"Look, what is that thing in front."
At some point, several people came not far from the little monkey, four men and one woman, all of them were ragged, and the black and gray on their faces made it almost impossible to tell their age and appearance.
"It's a child."
"No, it's a monkey!"
"It's really a monkey. How did it survive the meteor shower?"
"Don't worry about how it survived, just take it back."
"Great, I haven't eaten meat for more than a month. Although this monkey is thin, one or two pieces of meat is enough for each person!"
"Can monkeys be eaten? Why do I feel that they are almost the same as humans?" the woman said.
One of the middle-aged men stepped forward, grabbed the tail of the little monkey, held it in his hand and said, "If you don't dare to eat it, we will share more."
"It's the end of the world. Let alone a monkey, even if it is really a child, I dare to eat it." The woman suddenly laughed.
...
Zhao Yin came to the outside of the industrial park. The group of corpses had become much sparser and returned to the state of wandering aimlessly.
"Old Cow, was this where you and the monkey separated?" Zhao Yin asked in his heart.
"Master, it's in the industrial park in front." The old cow responded in his heart.
