Rotting Land: Survive-Chapter 377 - 375: The Death of Xiao Mei (5)

Staring directly at Dai Sha, how could Wei Dazhuang not understand the meaning behind his words?

He knew that the other party intended to use the zombies to give him a hard time. However, considering the safety of the entire venue and that Xiao Mei, who recently passed, needed to be buried, he resolutely accepted the task, although...

"Handling corpses is not a problem! But you must give me the necessary weapons, a vehicle, and..." Casting a glance at Zhao Huilong, who had been lingering several meters away, Wei Dazhuang’s gaze suddenly sharpened, "and that guy, he needs to come with me to move the corpses!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Huilong was immediately anxious. In the past, he could discern the ruthlessness in Wei Dazhuang’s eyes, knowing that the other harbored resentment for his previous "kicking someone while they’re down" behavior.

So, if he were to go with him now? The consequences would be unimaginable!

"No, no, no, Wei Big Brother! Don’t joke like that. With my small stature going with you, I’m sure I’ll hold you back. That...ow," feigning pain, Zhao Huilong clutched his waist with a pained expression, "this...this was from just falling on the steps. Boss Dai, in my condition, going out is a minor issue, but I’m afraid it’ll affect work efficiency!"

Zhao Huilong, with heartfelt emotion, portrayed the image of a sullen man unable to be at the frontline due to injury, vividly and accurately.

Unfortunately, this painstaking performance in front of Scar only earned him a seven-word evaluation: "Don’t f**king talk nonsense with me!"

"I’m telling you, you have to go today whether you want to or not! Also, if you mess up moving the corpses, don’t even think about coming back. Just feed the zombies outside!"

Having said that, Dai Sha instructed Sang Biao beside him: "Go, take those two to get weapons. As for transportation, just use that small van."

After sending off Wei Dazhuang’s group, Dai Sha summoned another subordinate from his entourage. Who knows what he said, but the latter nodded several times in agreement before hurriedly departing, just like Sang Biao’s group.

Wei Dazhuang, as usual, chose two scythes that he was adept at using, while Zhao Huilong, with barely any combat experience, opted for a fierce-looking cleaver, most likely for defense against Wei Dazhuang.

In addition, Wei Dazhuang specifically picked up two entrenching shovels, which puzzled Sang Biao a bit. However, due to the other’s previous "righteous aid," he didn’t say much.

Due to the earlier grain transport task, the rear seats inside the van had already been removed, so there was no need for the Wei-Zhao duo to make extra preparations; they just had to get in the van and head straight out to clear the corpses.

No cheers, no farewells, not even a word was exchanged with Wei and Zhao as they were about to head to the battlefield. They departed the stadium in solitude, riding in the van through the bleak autumn wind.

Xiao Mei lay quietly on the ground, shattered skull fragments mixed with fresh red blood constantly seeping out. Zhao Huilong took one look and felt a surge in his throat, then promptly vomited.

"Get to work!" Completely ignoring the discomfort of the person next to him, Wei Dazhuang sternly pounded on Zhao Huilong’s back.

Just as he finished this motion, suddenly, a shout came from directly above his head: "Hey! Wei Dazhuang! Deal with that b****’s body for me! Don’t worry, I’ve got your back from up here!"

Pointing at the two machine guns beside him, a slight grin formed on Dai Sha’s face.

He wasn’t standing guard for Wei and Zhao; he was clearly using the guns to warn them: Don’t get any ideas, or being shot full of holes will be your final outcome!

Wei Dazhuang and Zhao Huilong were naturally aware of this, so they diligently spread out the prepared sheets and then moved them aside.

Afterward, Wei Dazhuang slowly turned Xiao Mei’s body over, allowing her to lie flat on the sheet so that during transport her head’s fluids wouldn’t splatter on the ground.

However, as Ah Mei’s body was turned, the thin garment lightly wrapped around her inadvertently unfolded.

Wei Dazhuang’s heart suddenly trembled, and even Zhao Huilong, who harbored considerable grievances, quickly turned his face away upon seeing the girl’s body.

It wasn’t because they were shy about the girl’s body, but rather...

Countless deep red scars appeared on Xiao Mei’s swollen body, and the clusters of cigarette burns resembled battlefields gnawed by thousands of ants, densely covering her body, terrifying beyond measure. This clearly showed the inhumane pain and torment she endured in recent days.

It was too tragic, unbearably tragic, like something only a beast would do...

Taking a deep breath, Dazhuang, with difficulty, suppressed his inner compassion and gently smoothed the thin clothing that had come loose from Xiao Mei.

Despite the harm she suffered in life, at least in death, they could afford her dignity in departure.

"Damn! Wei Dazhuang! Zhao Huilong! What the f*** are you two doing over there? If you want to see a woman’s naked body, I’ll find someone for you to see; you two hurry up and get the body out for me!"

Looking from afar, Dai Sha already saw several moving figures appearing at the side path leading into the venue. Although there weren’t many yet, if this went on unchecked, it would only be a matter of time before they were surrounded by zombies.

Wei Dazhuang ignored the scarred man’s urging and bent down to pick up the securely wrapped Xiao Mei.

He paid no heed to the filth extending from the corpse, standing tall and steady as he placed Xiao Mei’s body into the van.

After closing the back door, Wei Dazhuang got into the driver’s seat, where Zhao Huilong had already prepared.

He truly embodied a cowardly "second-generation heir," not only hiding in the car as soon as possible but also taking all protective measures, like fastening the seatbelt.

Releasing the handbrake, stepping on the clutch, shifting gears, and accelerating, Wei Dazhuang busily carried out his actions silently.

When everything was done, the van wobbled into motion.

At first, Zhao Huilong didn’t think much of it, believing that once in the vehicle, there wouldn’t be any issues.

But, who would have thought, his sense of security hadn’t lasted more than a few seconds before a strong unease surged in his heart.

The vehicle’s speed climbed at an alarming rate, and the speedometer was flying rapidly. Zhao Huilong instinctively swallowed saliva, then solemnly reminded, "That...that...Wei, Wei Big Brother, isn’t our speed a bit too fast? You better be careful of an accident!"

As if he hadn’t heard, staring straight ahead, Zhao Huilong’s comment went unheeded. But after hearing it, Wei Dazhuang’s right hand on the gear shift decisively pushed upward again, and the van suddenly sped off... (To be continued.
