In the bedroom.

Du Heng was the last one to enter the bedroom.

After he entered the bedroom, he locked the door behind him.

"Everyone, take a rest first." Lu Xinyi said, "We will leave early tomorrow morning."

The three people outside are not a threat, but the group of zombies gathered in the stairwell and have not left are a hidden danger.

She used her mental power to look outside the house. The group of zombies that were attracted by the three people were still lingering in the stairwell, but they seemed a little confused because they had lost their target.

"Those three people outside..." Du Heng pointed at the door and spoke meaningfully.

"Don't pay any attention to them." Lu Xinyi said, "As long as they don't commit suicide and don't come to provoke us, we don't have to pay any attention to them."

If they really want to die, even the King of Hell can't stop them.

"You guys go to sleep, I'll keep watch." Du Heng said, picking up a chair in the room and sitting at the door with his back to the bedroom door.

Lu Xinyi gave him a tablet and a pair of headphones and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Brother Heng."

"Well, we are teammates, why are we saying these things?" Du Heng said with a smile, took the tablet and opened it happily.

He can read novels and watch TV dramas, so it doesn't matter if he has to stay up all night, let alone two nights in a row.

The county town was very quiet at night, with only the occasional cries of zombies.

In the bedroom, three girls, Lu Xinyi, Li Wanzhi and Xia Lianqiao, slept on the beds, while Qin Ju slept on the floor. All four of them had fallen asleep.

Du Heng was sitting in a chair, wearing headphones and watching the TV series with great interest.

Suddenly, there was a light knock on the door.

Du Heng immediately took off his headphones and turned around to look at the bedroom door vigilantly.

The knocking on the door continues.

As if afraid that the people inside couldn't hear him, the other party said, "I'm Geng Rui. Excuse me, are you all asleep?"

Du Heng stood up and moved his chair away. Just as he was about to open the door, he heard Lu Xinyi's voice suddenly.

"what happened?"

Du Heng turned his head and looked. Even in the dark, her sparkling eyes were exceptionally bright and clear.

"You go to sleep, I'll go out and take a look."

"Be careful."

"Ah."

Du Heng responded, quietly opened the door a crack, and looked at Geng Rui who was a little embarrassed at the door.

"Is something wrong?"

His facial features are three-dimensional and tough, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. In addition, he is tall and sturdy. At first glance, he looks like a powerful and rough man who is not easy to mess with.

In addition, his voice was low and a bit cold, which made Geng Rui, who was already nervous, a little at a loss for a moment.

"Um..." His eyes wandered a little, and he whispered, "I would like to ask, do you have any medicine to treat the injury?"

Du Heng said nothing, but looked at him calmly.

There were several obvious scars on Geng Rui's body, which were caused by the zombies' wind blades. Although the bleeding had stopped, the wounds looked very hideous, with flesh and blood turning inside out and the color turning purple.

"Jack and I are both injured." Geng Rui raised his head, met Du Heng's inquiring gaze, and said awkwardly, "We are out of medicine for our injuries, so I want to ask you, can you lend us some?"

Du Heng was silent for a moment, then said, "Wait a moment."

After he finished speaking, he closed the door and turned to the bed.

Before he could say anything, he saw Lu Xinyi handing him a bottle of iodine and a plaster.

"Five crystal cores."

Du Heng nodded upon hearing this.

He came to the door and opened it again.

Geng Rui saw the medicine he handed over and was about to take it happily, but he heard him say, "Exchange it for five crystal cores."

"Ah?" Geng Rui didn't react for a moment and stared at Du Heng in a daze.

Without waiting for him to come back, Yao Yue in the living room walked over quickly and said unhappily, "Five crystal cores? Why don't you go and grab them?"

Du Heng didn't want to waste time talking to her, so he said coldly, "Forget it if you don't want to change it."

"You——" Yao Yue glared at him angrily, "Aren't they just two bottles of medicine? Why do you want five crystal cores? If you don't want to give them to us, just tell us!"

Du Heng just glanced at her sharply and closed the door.

Yao Yue was furious. She put her hands on her hips and glared at the closed bedroom door.

"What kind of people are they? They clearly have the medicine, why don't they lend it to us? They even insist that we exchange it for crystal cores! These people are too cruel, they simply watch people die without helping!"

"Okay, Yao Yue, stop talking!" Geng Rui said unhappily, "Aren't you afraid of attracting zombies?"

Yao Yue was dissatisfied, but she lowered her voice and whispered, "Are you blaming me?"

"No." Geng Rui answered casually, then turned and walked to Jack to discuss with him whether to exchange the crystal core for medicine.

The injuries of both of them are neither serious nor minor. They will heal even without medicine, but it will take a little longer.

But in the current situation, they may encounter zombies at any time. If they don’t heal their injuries quickly, they may not even have the strength to fight the zombies if they encounter them.

Moreover, there is a risk of infection if it is not treated quickly.

It would be even more troublesome if the wound became infected.

The two of them quickly came to a conclusion.

"No way? Are you really going to use the crystal core to exchange for those two bottles of medicine?" Yao Yue looked confused. "They are obviously taking the opportunity to blackmail you. Don't fall for their trick!"

Geng Rui looked a little angry, and said unhappily: "You are not injured, so of course you don't care whether you change the medicine or not."

"I—" Yao Yue was speechless for a moment, curled her lips and said, "It's up to you. If you want to be ripped off, then go ahead."

Geng Rui just glanced at her lightly, then took the five crystal cores given to him by Jack and came to the bedroom door again.

This time, he finally got the medicine to treat his injuries.

He and Jack helped each other apply the medicine, which made them feel a little more at ease, and then they took turns to keep watch.

Geng Rui stayed on guard for half the night.

He sat on the floor, his back against the sliding door that connected the living room to the balcony. He glanced at the airtight door and then at the tightly closed bedroom door.

Finally, his eyes fell on Yao Yue who was sleeping on the ground.

The three of them actually didn't know each other before the end of the world, and now they have only known each other for less than half a year.

Although he and Jack knew very well that Yao Yue had a bit of a spoiled daughter's temper, they thought that it had not been easy for them to walk together all the way, and they were both men, so they were more tolerant and accommodating towards Yao Yue.

But what happened today made him realize that Yao Yue’s temper as a young lady was a little too much.

If Yao Yue continues to act on his own and ignores the team, perhaps he should consider breaking up.

He turned his gaze and looked at the white bedroom door again.

I don’t know where the people in the room came from, but I think they are not ordinary people.

It would be very beneficial for him if he could team up with them.

Perhaps, he could find an opportunity to test the waters tomorrow.

However, what Geng Rui could not have expected was.

The next morning, without them noticing, the group of people in the room left without anyone noticing.
