Chapter 847 Daryl Dixon (1)

"Ahhhh——!"

The screams resounded through the sky, startling a flock of birds in the forest.

The zombies wandering aimlessly nearby seemed to find their target in an instant and all looked in the direction where the sound came from.

"Roar--"

The short-haired girl ran along the stream in panic until she stepped on a muddy ground soaked by water and fell heavily to the ground.

Several zombies that had been chasing her approached with roars.

The girl scrambled to her feet, trying to pull her feet out of the mud.

The harder you try, the harder it is to pull out.

The harder it was to pull it out, the more scared she became.

Then she let out some uncontrollable sobbing sounds.

The low sobs attracted the zombies, who roared and pounced on her.

"what--!"

'flutter--'

The rancid blood splattered onto the girl's body, and then fell heavily the next moment.

"Are you ok?"

A gentle female voice sounded in her ears. When Sophia saw that someone had saved her, tears began to fall from her eyes and she threw herself into Yun Ci's arms, crying.

“Thank you…”

Yun Ci listened to the roar coming closer and closer in the forest, raised her hand and touched Sophia's head: "It's not safe here, let's leave here first."

Sophia choked up and nodded repeatedly, holding Yun Ci's hand tightly, and followed her through twists and turns to a place where there were no zombies.

Although they were still in the forest, Sophia felt a lot more at ease because there were people around.

Yun Ci leaned the shovel against the tree, pulled Sophia to sit on the yellow straw mat, took out a water bag from the mountaineering bag beside her and handed it to Sophia.

"Drink some water first, calm down a bit, and then tell me what happened, okay?"

Her voice is soft, and her tone is deliberately slow, making it easier for people to open up.

Sophia clutched the water bag and nodded slightly.

"My name is Sophia, sister, thank you for saving me."

"You're so good, but... I couldn't hear your voice and rush over until you ran near me, so you actually saved yourself." Yun Ci looked at Sophia with admiration, "You're so brave, little girl. I didn't have such courage when I was your age."

"Myself...?" Sophia muttered.

"Yeah, it's already amazing that you knew to run when you encountered zombies." Yun Ci took out a vegetable dumpling from the lunch box and handed it to Sophia, "Here, this is a reward for you."

There is no child of this age who doesn't like to be praised.

Sophia's eyes were shining and she was a little happy, so happy that she felt the zombies were not so scary anymore.

She took a bite of the vegetable dumpling that was as big as an adult's palm and said, "Delicious!"

"If it tastes good, eat more. I have more here."

Sophia shook her head: "This one is enough. Food is important."

"This is made of wild vegetables. These wild vegetables are growing right now, so you can eat as much as you want."

"Wild vegetables?"

Sophia looked at the vegetable dumplings. They tasted so fragrant. Could they be wild vegetables?

She suddenly thought of something and asked carefully, "Are there many wild vegetables like this? Can I learn to grow them?"

"Of course. I'll teach you on the way to meet your family, okay?"

Sophia nodded repeatedly: "Thank you, sister."

She wanted her mother to have a taste of these delicious dumplings, and her mother would definitely be very happy then.

Sophia thought expectantly, taking another bite of the dumpling.

After eating and drinking, and because of the previous fright and the running for her life, Sophia started nodding her head after a while.

She forced herself to cheer up and told Yun Ci that their previous camp had been destroyed and they were currently on a journey to the Atlanta safe zone.

"I was so scared that I forgot what my uncle told me to do and ran away from where he told me to hide." Sophia pinched the corner of her clothes with guilt, "They must be very worried... I want to apologize to them as soon as possible."

"You are only 12 years old. It is normal to be afraid. If you don't want to make them worry anymore, you can only work hard to learn to overcome your fear, right?"

Sophia nodded vigorously.

"Then take this opportunity to quickly recover your strength through rest, and then I will send you to find your family."

Sophia thanked him again, and then, with the help of Yun Ci, she climbed onto the two-meter-high hammock, looked at the gradually darkening night, and fell asleep.

Under the tree, Yun Ci moved the straw mat, leaned against the trunk, folded her arms, closed her eyes and rested.

She has only been in this world for a short time.

Yun Ci was not very interested in daily life in the early days, so she entered this world only when the zombie virus broke out.

Yun Ci simply asked Tiandao to give her an identity as a Chinese citizen traveling here, and then began her own "survival in the end times".

It has been almost a month now.

In order to make it easier for her to survive, Yun Ci chose the career of "Traditional Chinese Medicine" for herself this time.

The world will become more and more chaotic, and there will be a severe shortage of medical care. Traditional Chinese medicine is the most suitable profession.

As a Chinese medicine practitioner, it is normal to know some edible wild vegetables, so now I don’t have to worry too much about food.

'Crack--'

'boom'

The sound of digging a pit woke Sophia up.

She wrapped herself in a blanket, looking at the blue sky, and the memories of yesterday came back to her.

Sophia leaned down to look, and vaguely saw Yun Ci's figure a little further away.

The hammock was a little high and she couldn't get down by herself, but calling Yun Ci from such a long distance was obviously not a good idea.

Sophia could only sit there and wait.

Not long after, Yun Ci came back.

"Awake?" Yun Ci stopped by the tree and reached up to pick up Sophia. "Come down and prepare for breakfast."

Sophia responded, carefully holding onto the tree and sliding down to a position where Yunci could catch her.

The fire started.

A small camping pot hung above it, bubbling with activity.

Yun Ci handed a handful of grass leaves to Sophia: "Chew this and spit it out. It has the same effect as brushing your teeth."

Sophia did as she was told, then pouted with sparkling eyes.

“Why does it smell like mint?”

"Because I added some mint leaves to the grass leaves." Yun Ci stirred the wild vegetable soup with chopsticks and said, "How is it? Does it feel like brushing your teeth?"

Sophia nodded repeatedly: "I like this."

"I'll teach you together later."

"Thank you sister!"

Breakfast was wild vegetable soup with vegetable dumplings. Sophia ate her fill and then waited for Yunci to pack her luggage. The two walked hand in hand towards the stream.

"Ok?"

Sophia couldn't help but stop.

Yun Ci was stopped by her and looked in the direction of Sophia. There were dozens of graves arranged randomly in the woods. In front of each grave was a branch used as a tombstone, and there were some very personal items placed next to it.

Sophia remembered that she was in this direction when she saw Yunci in the hammock.

"Did my sister do all this?"

"Yes."

"why?"

"There are several reasons."

She thinks it's dirty and is afraid of contracting infectious diseases.

Moreover, these corpses were piled up in the open, not only were they smelly, but there were also many bugs...

Alas.

It’s better to bury it.
