Chapter 668

"Wuwu, wuwuwu ah..."

The crying grew louder and louder. The mysterious person just lay on the ground unscrupulously, sorrowful, miserable, and helpless, crying so genuinely.

"This... why did he start crying without saying a word? Get up, everything will be better!"

Pu Canyong walked over and also tried to comfort him.

The mysterious person lay on the ground and ignored him, crying to himself, becoming increasingly sad, his voice seemingly carrying long-accumulated bitterness and resentment.

"Why did you have to come to Red Ditch Village? I was doing fine in the village, doing just fine. Why did you have to come to Red Ditch Village..."

The mysterious person cried while recounting the bitterness in his heart. In the end, he was still grieving for the friends and family who had become zombies and were now thoroughly killed.

In the eyes of Duan Wuhu and the others, those were zombies, but for the mysterious person, they were his spiritual sustenance.

"This guy's obsession is too deep. I feel like there's something wrong with him here... but he's quite capable."

Zhao Dezhu gestured to his head toward Duan Wuhu. Being skilled in martial arts didn't mean there was nothing wrong with his brain; the two didn't conflict.

"Sigh, poor guy... I also think he suffered a great shock. He should already be, well, schizophrenic, I guess."

Shen Linrui sighed. The experiences of the people in their Dragon Head camp were also miserable, but it had erupted very suddenly, and it hadn't been fully confirmed yet, unlike the person crying on the ground.

According to his words, he must have stayed in Red Ditch Village after the disaster broke out, gathering the relatives and friends who had turned into zombies, missing the past, and locking himself in memories, unable to walk out.

"But he's really quite capable. I feel like he could be on par with Sister Lala!"

Wu Lue said with a serious expression. He had been responsible for clearing the zombie corpses just now and could watch the battle more clearly. The mysterious person's combat power surprised him, though not to the point of shock, because he had seen more exaggerated things.

"You... you just skipped over me and Little Lu, didn't you?"

Zhao Dezhu was a bit dissatisfied with Wu Lue's deduction, but it was limited to dissatisfaction and he didn't deny it, because he also felt the gap.

But that was limited to killing zombies. As for a real head-to-head fight, it was hard to say who would win! Duan Wuhu looked at the time, turned his head, and shone his flashlight. The ground was full of zombie corpses; burning them for fire at night would definitely be enough to keep them warm, but how to deal with the guy crying on the ground?

"Seeing him so painful and missing his friends and family so much, why not send him to reunite with them?"

Lu Yubo asked tentatively, shaking the grain sampler in his hand, not looking like he was joking.

"No, no, that's too outrageous... Little Brother Lu, this isn't something to joke about."

Zhou Haiquan from the Dragon Head camp had a strange expression, thinking to himself that the tough guys of the Yama Legion were too ruthless.

"Little Lu, I know I don't have the right to order you, but we can't decide life and death so easily. This friend was just fighting zombies with us, so we can count as having fought side by side, don't you think..."

Shen Linrui's mouth twitched. When he chatted with Lu Yubo before, he felt this young man was quite normal. How could he be so indifferent in the face of life?

"He didn't kill a single one..." Lu Yubo muttered softly. He only saw the man trip the zombies to the ground, never killing them.

"Should we ask Brother Su?"

Wu Lue took out his walkie-talkie and suggested.

"Damn it, look at what time it is. Why are you bothering Big Brother with such a trivial matter..." Zhao Dezhu was speechless.

"Hmm..."

Duan Wuhu stood with one hand on his hip, looking at the man lying on the ground crying, smacked his lips, and said: "It's pitch black outside, it's too dangerous to travel in the dark. So, let's tidy up, rest, and keep watch. We'll leave at dawn. As for this friend... let him calm down first."

They couldn't persuade him, killing him was too outrageous, and leaving him alone was a good choice. Everyone nodded one after another and returned to the courtyard.

The mysterious person lay on the ground, not caring about others' leaving or staying, sobbing to himself.

Returning to the courtyard, everyone saw the corpses all over the ground and felt a bit worried.

Shen Linrui's head was hot, and he wanted to take off his hat to cool down, but as soon as he took it off, Lightning squeaked and grabbed the hat back, covering it on his head.

Shen Linrui was a bit strange about Lightning's actions. He took Lightning out from under the hat and held it in his palm, puzzled: "The battle is over, are you still afraid?"

"Little Lightning is quite interesting. It's not afraid of people or animals, only zombies?"

Duan Wuhu asked curiously.

Shen Linrui shrugged and said: "It wasn't this exaggerated before."

Lightning's whiskers trembled. It turned and pointed toward the Yunlong Valley direction, then gestured for a while. "No way! You can feel it? Then why didn't you feel these zombies before?"

"What's wrong, Captain Shen, is there any situation?"

Duan Wuhu saw Shen Linrui's strange expression and asked hurriedly.

"It says..." Shen Linrui was a bit conflicted because he didn't quite believe Lightning's judgment, but he still said truthfully: "The little guy says there are zombies over there. It can feel them."

"Then why didn't it feel these zombies before?" Lu Yubo squinted at Lightning and asked the same question as Shen Linrui, still holding a grudge about its previous attack.

Shen Linrui spread his hands to indicate he didn't know.

"Hmm, Little Lightning, can you help go over there and check the situation?"

Duan Wuhu imagined he was bringing a first-grade primary school student, trying his best to look kind and amiable while asking for its opinion.

Lightning shook its head without hesitation...

"That Corgi you fought, Lucky, it patrols around Tianma Island every day. It's a little female dog, and you're a male, you're too timid!"

Lu Yubo bluntly poked at Lightning's weak spot.

"Squeak, squeak!"

Lightning bared its two front teeth, then clenched its fists at Lu Yubo. After the demonstration, it wrapped around Shen Linrui's arm, darted into his pocket in a flash, poked out a little head to express its dissatisfaction to Lu Yubo again, and then shrank into the pocket and didn't come out.

Everyone was speechless. Wu Lue shook his sore arms, picked his ears, and said: "Technology is more reliable. Let me see what's going on."

The crying continued, intermittent, sometimes loud, sometimes soft. Wu Lue re-controlled the drone to fly into the air, with Shen Linrui pointing the direction from the side.

"Captain Shen, are you sure the direction is correct? These are all dilapidated houses, there's nothing here."

The drone flew in the air, feeding the ground situation back to the screen in detail. Everyone could clearly see the situation in Red Ditch Village. Apart from being a mess, there was nothing special.

Flying all the way to the foot of Yunlong Valley, apart from patches of fallen trees, no abnormal creatures were found.

"Captain Shen, how about... asking Lightning again?"

Duan Wuhu pointed to Shen Linrui's pocket.

Shen Linrui nodded, gently picked Lightning out of his pocket, and said softly: "Lightning, feel it again, where exactly are the zombies?"

Lightning stood on Shen Linrui's shoulder, looked at the screen, sniffed toward the Yunlong Valley direction, and then pointed diagonally upward.

"On the mountain?"

Wu Lue understood Lightning's meaning and began to control the drone to climb. Then, after another search, apart from collapsed trees and messy stones, there was still no discovery.

"Little guy, are you actually capable or not?"

Lu Yubo was very depressed. He had first spent half the night freezing on the roof, finally managed to get a warm sleep, and then had a big battle with zombies. Now he was hungry, cold, and exhausted.

This time, not only Lu Yubo was skeptical; everyone else showed a polite smile, clearly doubting Lightning's judgment.

"Is it too nervous?"

Shen Linrui gently stroked Lightning's back.

Lightning kept sniffing toward the Yunlong Valley direction, its little nose and whiskers trembling. After more than ten seconds, it lowered its arms in frustration, looking dejected, and shook its head at Shen Linrui.

"Hmm, if you can't feel it, forget it, rest."

Shen Linrui didn't argue with Lightning. It had encountered enough things today, so it wasn't strange for it to be a bit abnormal.

"Got it, work's done! Hmm, sixty-three percent battery left, need to charge it!"

Wu Lue muttered and retrieved the drone.

People in the village were busy with their own things. In the cave of Yunlong Valley, the vertical eyes watched the drone fly away and crawled out of the cave again.
