~9 min read 1,690 words

"There is one thing I am very curious about. Who did you learn your kung fu from? I can't see the style, but the practicality is very strong, very amazing!"

Zhang Su very generously acknowledged the other party's strength.

But Tachibana Mai Sakura was silent after hearing this question, looked out the window for a while, and then spoke again.

"She said... family-inherited kendo."

"Kendo? Stop talking nonsense. I have seen what kind of kendo the island has, it's not the same thing as what you used just now."

Zhang Su shook his head and didn't believe Tachibana Mai Sakura's words. In his heart, a green algae head appeared involuntarily. Leaving anime aside, some content about island kendo was also played in reality movies, which was completely different.

"She said... I didn't lie. This is the inheritance within the Tachibana family. It's normal that you haven't seen it, but it's not right to be limited to kendo. It should be more appropriate to call it Tachibana martial arts."

After Zhang Su finished listening, he curled his lips. Why did she bring up the family inheritance? Especially since the other party was speaking seriously, it made it like a pyramid scheme leader. He didn't intend to continue to ask about these. In short, it was enough to know that she was very amazing. How to learn the other party's skills was the key!

Soon, the car drove to the entrance of the village. The dilapidated and blood-stained stone tablet wrote three big characters, Huangjiatian. It was unknown whether it was a coincidence, but the two characters "jiatian" were very blurred, only the "huang" seemed to have been soaked in blood, very distinct.

It was a very small village, and it looked like the conditions of the fellow villagers living here were not very good. Many farm households were still the kind of earth houses from the period after the Tang Cheng earthquake, and only a few families built new concrete houses.

Following the route pointed by Tachibana Mai Sakura, Zhang Su walked forward carefully. The whole village was very desolate. Some corpses were thrown on the side of the road. The human corpses that were half-rotted and frozen were naturally human corpses, and the zombie corpses were also very well preserved.

Along the way, he had been observing earnestly and didn't forget the original intention of coming out this time, which was to find venom zombies. It was a pity that whether it was alive or dead, he didn't find any trace of venom zombies.

When the vehicle drove to a two-story small building, Tachibana Mai Sakura shouted to stop the car.

"Damn, what kind of formation is this..."

Zhang Su saw the courtyard wall of the small building and couldn't help but laugh and cry. Zombies whose heads were pierced and died were hung outside the wall, their toes were three or five centimeters off the ground, and their arms hung down weakly, looking so evil.

"Hmm, she said... hanging zombies outside the wall can reduce the possibility of being discovered by zombies to a certain extent."

"Is that so?"

Zhang Su held a skeptical attitude toward this conclusion, but even if it had an effect, if it was not one hundred percent, it was of little use. Perhaps it was helpful for the survival of lone wolves or a very small number of survivors, but for large camps, the significance was not great.

"Doing this, even if it blocks zombies, it is equivalent to telling others in disguise that there are survivors here. I think it's completely unnecessary."

After experiencing three months of apocalypse life, Zhang Su felt that humans were more terrifying than zombies. Monsters like 003 and 004 didn't count.

Tachibana Mai Sakura pursed her lips and thought about it when she heard Zhang Su's words, and said a few very short words.

"She said... it makes sense..." Su Xiaoya muttered with a strange expression.

"Let's go, get out of the car, let's see what the situation is with your companion."

Zhang Su didn't continue to struggle with the matter of hanging zombies and opened the door to get out of the car.

The group walked to the courtyard gate. Zhang Su took a bunch of keys from Tachibana Mai Sakura's bag and threw them to her. The meaning was very obvious, open the door.

He could naturally do it himself, but seeing the zombies hanging on both sides of the courtyard gate, he felt that this guy was evil, and maybe there were some poisonous island traps inside. It was more reliable to let her do it herself.

Although Tachibana Mai Sakura's wrists were tied, it didn't affect her taking the keys to open the door. While operating the lock, she spoke.

"She said... I hope she can know that I am back, and I don't want her to be frightened. If you are afraid that I have set a trap, you can use the language of your country to communicate with her."

"Still so careful..." Lu Yubo sneered on the side. He couldn't be more displeased with Tachibana Mai Sakura.

Zhang Su also smiled and shook his head, "It doesn't matter if you are a little frightened. How do I know what secret code you have between you? What if she hears that you are back and it's a secret code? Open the door quickly, don't dawdle."

Tachibana Mai Sakura frowned her sword-like eyebrows helplessly when she heard Zhang Su's words, twisted the lock, and opened the courtyard gate.

The group looked inside. The situation in the courtyard was completely different from the outside, clean and tidy...

Zombies were hung every few meters outside, like a Shura hell field, while the scene in the courtyard could be called a paradise in the apocalypse.

Zhang Su thought he wouldn't find a place to put his feet inside and had to be on guard against traps at all times, but he didn't expect it to be very tidy. What was on the cement floor was clear at a glance.

"You two arranged this place like this, are you planning to live here for a long time?"

A group of people walked into the courtyard. Zhang Su didn't relax his vigilance and looked around, but basically ruled out the crisis in his heart.

Not only were there no traps, but there was also a row of plastic green plant pots outside the window, and beautiful window grilles were pasted on the window, which decorated the whole environment with a lot of life atmosphere.

"She said... Xiao Ling's injury is very serious and she can't move, so she plans to spend the winter here."

"Xiao Ling..." Zhang Su muttered this name and pointed to the house, "Let's go, take us to see your companion."

Tachibana Mai Sakura took the six people to the west wing. Pushing the door into the room, first was the living room. The magnificent living room had sofas, coffee tables, TV cabinets, etc., all available. It could be seen that this family had some money. The big color TV was a full one hundred inches, and it didn't look elegant in the living room of at least thirty or forty square meters.

The most prominent thing was not these furniture, but a large pile of wine bottles and wine boxes piled in the corner of the living room, as well as several liters of bucket grain wine.

"Xiao Ju..."

Just as the group stepped into the living room, Zhang Su's ears moved, and he heard a weak cry coming from the room next to him. He could clearly see that none of his companions had a clear reaction, but Tachibana Mai Sakura's eyes lit up. It was clear that her hearing was stronger than ordinary people!

"This woman is a bit hanging..." Zhang Su looked at Tachibana Mai Sakura, who showed a faint smile for the first time, and couldn't help but ponder in his heart.

"She said... it's me, I brought a few survivors from nearby, they promised to treat your injury."

While speaking, Tachibana Mai Sakura pushed open the bedroom door, and a burst of heat rushed toward her face. There was heating in the room.

"You... why are your hands... tied."

The woman in the room was leaning on the kang. Seeing Tachibana Mai Sakura walk into the room, she discovered the abnormality for the first time.

Tachibana Mai Sakura pointed to Zhang Su who walked into the room with her, and told the woman on the bed the reason in very short island language, roughly meaning that they were not at ease with me, so they tied me up first. This is a very necessary vigilance, but they have no malice, and they are here to treat your injury...

The two lived together for a period of time. Xiao Ling could already understand some island language. After learning the details, the tension on her pale cheeks gradually faded. Her listless eyes looked at Zhang Su and his party, her lips, which were almost bloodless, moved, and she said.

"Thank you."

Zhang Su didn't speak and looked at the woman on the bed. She was leaning against the wall weakly. She looked about thirty years old, but everyone in the apocalypse looked older than the actual age. The real age was estimated to be five or six years younger.

Her hair was very oily, and she tied it up casually, which could be considered as neat as possible. She was covered with a quilt, her upper body seemed to have no problem, and the problem was naturally the lower body, so Tachibana Mai Sakura said she was inconvenient to move.

Feeling the temperature in the room, the indoor and outdoor temperature difference was more than forty degrees. Zhang Su slowly unzipped his coat, walked to the center of the room, sniffed, and there was a smell of disinfectant mixed with alcohol. Even if she couldn't move, there was no unpleasant odor, which showed that Tachibana Mai Sakura's care for Xiao Ling was very in place.
