“Please, save us…” The people inside the car, upon seeing help arrive, immediately felt a glimmer of hope and pleaded desperately.
Through the car window, Fu Shinan could see two men inside. One appeared to be in his thirties, with a pair of glasses, one lens of which was broken. The other was an elderly man, both dressed neatly, giving off an intellectual vibe.
Fu Shinan wanted to comfort them but could only say hastily, “We will save you!” before resuming her attack on the zombies alongside Ji Zan.
After clearing the zombies around the car, the people inside couldn’t believe their eyes as they looked at this striking pair of individuals. Were they even human? The strength and speed they displayed were terrifying.
Fu Shinan sighed, her hands sore from the relentless smashing of zombie heads. She stepped forward and opened the car door. “You’re safe now, come out.”
The middle-aged man, named Liang Xuanzhe, with a pale face, got out of the car and looked at Fu Shinan and Ji Zan. “We are deeply grateful. If it weren’t for you, Professor Zhao and I would have died here for sure!”
The elderly man, Professor Zhao, tremblingly stepped out of the car as well, tears in his eyes. “Thank you so much…”
Ji Zan’s tone remained calm. “No need to thank us. At a time like this, humans should help each other. Where do you plan to go?”
Liang Xuanzhe explained their situation. “It doesn’t matter where we go now because our car is out of gas, and we’re out of food…” He believed that whether they were killed by zombies or not, they wouldn’t survive for long. It was only a matter of time.
Ji Zan assessed the situation and said, “We have some food. If you’re hungry, you can rest at our place.”
Liang Xuanzhe immediately looked at Professor Zhao, seeking his opinion.
Professor Zhao nodded. “Then we will trouble you two. We haven’t eaten anything in two days…”
On the way back, Fu Shinan learned that Professor Zhao was a scientist, but he didn’t disclose the details of his research. Liang Xuanzhe was his assistant. She didn’t press them for more information since they hadn’t shared it willingly.
Upon arriving at the gathering of people in the courtyard, both of them were surprised. They hadn’t seen so many people in a long time.
Ji Zan introduced them briefly and then allowed the two newcomers into the house. 𝓯𝒓𝒆𝒆𝒘𝒆𝒃𝓷𝙤𝒗𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝙤𝙢
Zhang Xiaojuan quickly brought bowls of porridge for the two newcomers.
Meanwhile, MO Cheng approached Fu Shinan and asked, “Sister Fu, did you find the High Priest?”
Fu Shinan shook her head, “He shouldn’t be nearby. He has wind-based abilities and healing powers. As long as he has a breath left, he can escape.
Unless he reveals himself, it will be challenging to find him.”
MO Cheng grew anxious, “What should we do then? We’re in a passive position. It’s like having a poisonous snake lurking in the shadows, and we never know when it might strike…”
Fu Shinan shared his frustration, “I don’t know either…”
MO Cheng continued to inquire, “Who are these two? They don’t seem to be from the Changkong Tribe.”
Fu Shinan replied, “We rescued them on our way back…”
MO Cheng had more questions, but Ji Zan emerged from the house, cast a glance at He Zhu and the others, and then said, “Now that we have more people, one house isn’t enough. You guys can rest in the left room. Fu Shinan, you girls stay here. I’ll take MO Cheng, Sun Han, and the others to the right.”
At this moment, Liang Xuanzhe came out, looking somewhat embarrassed, and asked, “Um, can we stay here for a night to rest?”
MO Cheng smiled, “Feel free to stay, there are empty rooms.”
Liang Xuanzhe expressed his gratitude, “Thank you so much.” He then extended his hand to Ji Zan, “I’m Liang Xuanzhe, but you can call me Xiao
Liang.”
“Ji Zan,” Ji Zan shook his hand.
Upon hearing Ji Zan’s name, Liang Xuanzhe appeared surprised.
Ji Zan inquired, “Do you know me?”
Liang Xuanzhe immediately replied, “I’ve heard of Mr. Ji. You’re from the East Sea, right? I didn’t expect to meet you here.”
Ji Zan gave a faint smile, “No need to be so formal. At a time like this, we’re all the same. You must be tired, find a place to rest.”
“Alright, we’ll rely on Mr. Ji for everything,” Liang Xuanzhe said and then helped Professor Zhao out.
Professor Zhao was elderly and had endured a long journey. He had also gone without food for two days, so his spirits were quite low. However, with something in his stomach now, he felt much better. He engaged in a conversation with Professor Feng for a while, and the two elderly scholars quickly found common ground in their discussion. It seemed like they had known each other for ages.
Professor Feng escorted the two of them to their resting place. When he returned, he still appeared quite excited. “I thought most of the older folks were gone by now, but I didn’t expect to meet a professor..”
