#255 - Chapter 255 Question
Outside the earthen house.
Looking at the several men surrounding them and the hook-nosed man who had been inviting them into the house, Yao Lei and Zhou Xin seemed unfazed.
Zhou Xin's smile didn't falter as she said to the hook-nosed man:
"Just draw the map here, I have a pen."
"Also—"
"I advise you to be good."
"Otherwise."
"You'll regret it."
Hahahaha---
Hearing Zhou Xin's words, the hook-nosed man and the men beside him couldn't help but laugh.
How could they be so naive?
So adorable!?
They wondered how these two women had survived in the apocalypse until now.
"Regret! ?"
"Doesn't exist!"
"But you'll regret it later! Brothers, grab these two women and take them inside!"
The hook-nosed man grinned, glanced at his companions, and decided not to waste any more words with Yao Lei and Zhou Xin.
Earlier, he had noticed that the two women were cleanly dressed, and their faces lacked the dirt and dishevelment common among people in the apocalypse.
On the contrary, their faces were rosy, their figures were tall and well-proportioned, and they both exuded youthful vitality.
He had been drooling over them for a long time.
Not to mention the bags on their backs, which likely contained food!
Although he didn't know how they maintained this state, wouldn't he find out everything by interrogating them slowly after capturing them?
...
Watching the men approaching, Zhou Xin's face turned cold, her smile disappeared, and she told her best friend without turning her head: "Move!"
She threw off her backpack, crouched down, and darted out like a nimble wildcat!
A dagger had appeared in her hand at some point, flashing past in the hook-nosed man's astonished gaze!
"Pfft!"
The hook-nosed man only felt a chill at his right wrist and right ankle, and before a second had passed, excruciating pain struck.
"Ahhh!"
It didn't stop there!
As the hook-nosed man screamed, Zhou Xin had already pounced on the other men beside him, unleashing a dazzling flurry of cuts and thrusts, inflicting more than a dozen wounds on two of the men!
Yao Lei wasn't idle either, a pistol appeared in her palm at some point, and without much aiming, she fired two shots, directly hitting the knees of the remaining two men who were charging forward!
The situation reversed instantly!
Five burly men fell to the ground, wailing!
The young man in the distance watched this scene in horror, unable to speak for a moment.
Who exactly were these two people!?
Of course, they didn't know that after half a year of training, especially the high-intensity training in the base during the cold disaster, Yao Lei and Zhou Xin's skills had far surpassed ordinary people.
Not to mention a few malnourished and sallow-faced men, even if there were twice as many, they could still handle them with their current skills and marksmanship!
Zhou Xin wiped the blood-stained dagger on the hook-nosed man's clothes, and asked without blushing or panting:
"I told you you would regret it."
"Now can you help point the way? Dear～"
At the end, she smiled and patted the hook-nosed man's face with the much cleaner dagger, the scene was extremely incongruous.
When had the hook-nosed man and his companions ever seen this scene?
Pain and fear occupied his heart, and feeling the cold dagger patting his face, cold sweat poured out frantically.
"I…we don't know, we only recently came here to take refuge…Heroine…please let us go…"
Intermittent words came out of his mouth, completely gone was the previous confidence and hospitality.
Pfft!
"Ahhhh!"
Hearing his words, Zhou Xin didn't hesitate at all, and stabbed him in the thigh with a knife!
The excruciating pain that the hook-nosed man had finally suppressed once again took over, and he screamed loudly!
"I advise you not to make too much noise, if you attract zombies, you will suffer yourselves."
"Cooperate and tell me everything you know."
The first sentence was not only addressed to the hook-nosed man, but also to the other men beside him who were still moaning and wailing.
If they really attracted zombies, they could easily deal with a small number, but if there were too many, they could only abandon these people and escape on their own.
Hearing the light words from the woman in front of them, the surrounding people really suppressed their screams and dared not make any more noise.
"Xin Xin, hurry up and ask, if there are no results, we'll find another place or find the captain and the others."
Yao Lei suppressed the situation with a pistol, while also paying attention to the surrounding environment. The noise just now was not small, and with the spread of the bloody smell here, it would attract zombies sooner or later.
Zhou Xin naturally knew the situation.
She patted the hook-nosed man's face with the dagger again, this time without saying anything, staring straight at him, and started counting down:
"Three."
"Two."
...
The hook-nosed man didn't know what the consequences would be if he counted to one or zero, but he definitely didn't want to know!
"Wuu, I'll talk! I'll talk! We are survivors who only recently found this place! We wanted to hide from the zombies in the city here, so we hid in this remote place!"
He blurted out the words at the fastest speed, but Zhou Xin's dagger still didn't stop, still patting his right face.
Knowing that the other party was still not satisfied, the hook-nosed man quickly continued to pour out what he knew:
"We are not from here…Wei Shan next to us is…this is his hometown, he brought us here…"
Hearing this, Zhou Xin stopped the dagger, stood up and looked at the young man hiding in the corner watching the development of the situation.
"You come over and tell me what's going on."
She pointed the dagger at Wei Shan, who was the young man.
Earlier, this man had advised them to leave, and he didn't want to catch them like the other men, so she had no intention of dealing with him.
Seeing all the eyes looking over, Wei Shan knew that he couldn't hide, especially since one of the women was holding a pistol!
How dare he disobey?
He raised his hands, walked over cautiously, and after standing in front of Zhou Xin, he swallowed, not knowing what to do next.
"Who are they? What is your relationship with them? I heard you are from here? Can you help us point the way?"
A series of questions were thrown out directly. In a hurry, Zhou Xin was no longer polite. They needed to leave here as soon as possible.
Wei Shan swallowed again, looked at the two heroic women in front of him, and said stutteringly:
"My name is Wei Shan, and I am indeed a local. I used to live in Yucheng City, but there are too many zombies there, and it's difficult to find food, so I tried to hide back in my hometown some time ago."
Seeing that everyone else was still waiting for him to continue, he didn't dare to delay, and seemed to speed up his speech as if he was getting used to it.
"I met them on the way back, and they wanted to come back to the countryside with me to take refuge."
"I heard you just now, I remember the approximate location of Daliang Mountain you are looking for, I used to play there when I was a child, I can try to point the way."
Hearing this, Yao Lei and Zhou Xin's eyes lit up, they found the right person!
"Then the last question."
"Why did you tell us to leave at the beginning?"
