Chapter 349: Testing
The zombies followed Zhuang Chen relentlessly, with a glossy liquid flowing out of their mouths.
They jumped left and right in the mountains, looking like jumping springs.
Zhuang Chen knew that as long as he appeared in these places, there would be zombies chasing him.
This was his standard for traveling in the end times.
Zhuang Chen didn't want to cause these troubles, he had just experienced a big battle.
The recovery of his body was still a bit beyond his ability, he tried his best to speed up his pace and get rid of these followers behind him.
Unexpectedly, the further Zhuang Chen walked, the more he found that these zombies didn't seem to follow him.
As if they were attracted by something else, he scratched his head and was a little confused.
Logically speaking, they wouldn't give up such a sweet thing like him so easily.
Zhuang Chen felt a little uneasy in his heart. He struggled in his heart again and again, and was ready to look back.
What happened?
When he hurried to this place, he was a little glad that he rushed here.
The weak figure in front of her was running around in the mountains in panic.
The zombies behind her were determined to get her.
"Why is she here?"
Sun Yue was a little annoyed. She was originally following behind Zhuang Chen.
But these zombies found her and turned around to attack her. She wanted to use her special ability to attack them.
But she turned back and saw Zhuang Chen hiding in the dark. She was so frustrated that she could only pretend to be weak and run forward.
Zhuang Chen followed them quietly. He was full of doubts about the woman who stayed in the farm.
It was just the right time to test her.
Sun Yue was panting from the pursuit. She was exhausted and tripped by a dead branch, and her body fell heavily.
"Roar!"
The zombies chasing her were like a group of baboons, patting their chests and raising their heads to roar softly.
Sun Yue was frightened and her face turned pale. She was about to get up from the ground and run away.
But these zombies directly surrounded her, and slowly approached her with bloody steps.
"Help! Help..."
"..."
Sun Yue shouted for help in despair, tears flowed down her cheeks to her chin and dripped on the ground.
She kept backing away, staring at the zombies attacking her.
She muttered in her heart about Zhuang Chen Moji, and knew that the reason why he didn't show up in time was to test herself.
She could only suppress her uneasiness and bet on whether Zhuang Chen would show up at the last moment?
"Ah..."
Sun Yue was frightened and screamed, shaking off the birds in the mountains and forests.
At the critical moment, Zhuang Chen flew over from the dark and blocked the zombies' attack for Sun Yue.
The bodies of several zombies that jumped over were fixed in mid-air.
Maintaining the appearance of baring teeth and claws, Zhuang Chen looked calmly with his hands behind his back.
The next second, several crisp bone-breaking sounds were heard, and the zombies' heads instantly drooped like withered flowers.
Zhuang Chen casually threw them at the bottom of the mountain, turned around and looked at Sun Yue, who was shivering in the basement.
"Why are you here?"
His expression was cold, and there was no warmth in his words. His deep eyes were looking at the expression on her face.
"I know you are all very busy during this period, and I just happened to see you go out.
So I quietly followed behind you, wanting to see if I could find my family by the way?"
When Sun Yue said this, her eyes were red.
I stretched out my slender hands to wipe the tears from the corners of my eyes, and I looked so pitiful with my curled up body.
"Do your family live here? Why did you follow me so far?"
"Because I was a little scared when I saw those zombies, so I had to follow you."
Sun Yue raised her head suddenly, blinked her big eyes pitifully, and tears flowed down.
Zhuang Chen believed what she said, but things had come to this point.
He couldn't force her to go back.
"Get up."
His expression eased a little, and he leaned down, stretched out his hand to grab her arm, and lifted her up.
"Just follow me, but you must obey my arrangements.
Otherwise I can't guarantee your safety."
Sun Yue watched the tall Zhuang Chen pull her up, and the strong pull made her stunned.
When she realized her embarrassment, she awkwardly turned her eyes away to hide her uneasiness.
She timidly lowered her head and nodded, not daring to look into Zhuang Chen's eyes at all.
Just like this, she followed him obediently, and Zhuang Chen slowed down his speed to take care of her.
He took out the map provided by the system from his pocket and found the location of Qiu Ping.
Zhuang Chen climbed over hill after hill, and Sun Yue behind him was already exhausted.
"Where are we going?"
Zhuang Chen turned around and looked at his burden, frowning slightly with a hint of dissatisfaction.
But he didn't say anything.
"Since you want to follow me, you should know not to ask too many questions."
Seeing Zhuang Chen's cold look, Sun Yue's smile froze on his face.
"I'm sorry."
She apologized in a low voice.
Zhuang Chen walked forward with great effort and finally saw a glimmer of hope in a hill.
In front of him was a huge tree, which should have a history of hundreds of years.
Although the surface was dry, it had not fallen completely.
When Zhuang Chen approached, he found such uneven marks, and there were zombies and various monsters scratching on it.
And the nail marks left.
The huge tree did not shake at all.
It seems that there must be a reason.
Zhuang Chen looked down at the map given by the system, and the arrow pointed to this big tree.
He wondered if what he was looking for was inside the big tree.
Zhuang Chen slowly put away the map in his hand and put it in his pocket.
He gathered a force in his hands, swung his arms and punched the tree.
But something he didn't expect happened. The tree immediately formed a barrier.
It automatically shocked him away, and such a strong force made his body fall heavily to the ground.
The inertia made him roll from the top of the mountain to the middle of the mountainside. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and grabbed one of the stones embedded in the soil.
His whole arm was aching.
"Hiss..."
Zhuang Chen gasped in pain.
"Zhuang Da..."
Sun Yue ran down from the top of the mountain worriedly, calling Zhuang Chen's name loudly.
