Chapter 8 Black Swamp

black swamp

Tang Chu stood in the snow all night, even after going through such a fierce fight, he still didn't feel obviously sleepy.After most of the people fell asleep, he moved a little closer to the place where the bonfire was burning.

The fire has almost been extinguished, leaving only a few sporadic carbon rods, emitting light brown light.

Tang Chu inserted the AK into the ground, and the temporary tent was set up to block the strong wind, but it couldn't block the thick snow on the ground.He almost felt that in such a hellish weather, these people would freeze to death if they weren't bitten to death by zombies.

However, it was probably because of his movement that someone was awakened next to him, and a familiar male voice rang in his ears. When he turned his head, he saw Cross's face, which was very hazy by the night.

"Can't sleep?"

Tang Chu was a little surprised that Kloss would take the initiative to talk to him. He thought that after the incident in the villa, Kloss would hide as far as he could according to his personality.

"I just don't want to sleep." Tang Chu narrowed his eyes slightly, "You look happy?"

"Well..." Cross's eyes reflected the faint fire light, and the momentary blueness carried emotions that Tang Chu couldn't understand, "I feel like I've returned to a normal society."

"Heh..." Tang Chu's eyebrows twitched slightly, but he didn't speak anymore. At this moment, Kloss started the conversation again: "Hey, tell you the truth, if I was bitten by a zombie, would you Kill me before I turn into that monster."

"Of course." Tang Chu's answer was very straightforward.

"Tsk, it's like this, it's still like this..." Cross gradually lowered his voice again, looking like he couldn't hold back his sleepiness.

He still seemed a little cold, shrinking slightly under the heavy blanket.Seeing him like this, Tang Chu couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and then said in a probing tone.

"Is it cold?"

No one replied to him, only the non-stop cold wind kept blowing outside the tent, Tang Chu sat leaning on the gun for a whole night.

Morning is always the most popular time, as if everything is pregnant with vigorous vitality at this moment.The members of Clare's rescue team were distributing food, while Tang Chu stood aside with a gun in his hand, showing a lack of interest.

Claire walked towards him with a can in his hand, and then stuffed it into his hand regardless of Tang Chu's rejection eyes.

"Go to K-Matt today."

"I do not want to eat."

"Let's eat, we have to hurry in the afternoon." Claire patted Tang Chu's shoulder very familiarly, "You can be regarded as our main force now, and everyone is very grateful for your help yesterday."

Probably because he was not used to being so close to people, Tang Chu's expression was a little uncomfortable: "At that time, I also wanted to join you, so it was not a help."

"Well, whatever you want to say." Claire shrugged her shoulders indifferently, and joked again, "You are also one of us now, if you don't have enough to eat, others will think that I abused you."

A member of...?

Tang Chu's dark eyes froze. In his concept, there was really no team spirit.As a mercenary—at least a person like him who has no fixed partner, basically every time he will go on missions with different people and different teams.And he never gave all his trust.

Showing your back to someone other than yourself is courting death—whether that person is an ally or an enemy.This is also an idea that is deeply rooted in Tang Chu.

"Don't think too much." Claire glanced at Tang Chu, she had already realized that this Asian young man started to lose his mind not long after talking to him, but even so...

"Always remember, we are companions."

"Well, before I was bitten." Tang Chu answered quickly, and then left with a gun in hand.

Claire, who was left standing there, had a thoughtful expression on his face.

It didn't take long for the troops to set off. Tang Chu sat in the passenger seat and looked at the almost unchanging scenery outside the window with little interest.

I don't know who's bad taste, the car is full of noisy heavy metal music, but Tang Chu is probably the only one who is not used to it, and Kloss's hand is even beating the beat with the music.

But it didn't take long to relax like this, and Claire's voice came over the intercom.

"The road ahead is blocked by snow."

"Shit! It's true—!"

"God, let people live?!"

Replies like this kept coming out of the walkie-talkie, Tang Chu leaned against the car window and said nothing.He heard from Claire last night that this road is the only way to pass through the next stop, and at the next stop they need to replenish the little food and water left.

but--

"It seems that I can only..."

"This is how to do……"

Sparse voices of discussion came from the walkie-talkie, and just when everyone began to hesitate, Cross, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke, he said.

"I know there's a way that doesn't go through here but still gets to K-Matt."

Tang Chu turned his head and glanced at Cross, then turned around as if nothing had happened.As soon as Cross finished speaking, Claire's voice came over clearly.

"Do you remember the route, we may need to—"

But before Claire finished speaking, Cross interrupted first.

"There is a road, but I remember it was a swamp."

The intercom fell silent for a moment, and just as Tang Chu was about to continue his fugue again, the car door he was leaning against suddenly vibrated violently. When he opened the door, Claire looked at Cross with a serious face.

"Can you be more specific, what swamp?"

Cross also got out of the car. He and Claire talked for a while, but when he came back, he came to get the gun.Tang Chu pressed down his hand, raised his head and asked a question.

"How is it?"

Cross hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I have a map with road signs on it, I have only been there once... I do remember that the route is reachable, but there is a large swamp, I want to go with Claire Check to see if it's frozen over there."

But the moment he left, Tang Chu suddenly opened the door of the truck and jumped out, meeting Claire who was standing outside.

"I'll go. Give me the map, and I'll go alone."

Tang Chu put his hand on the gun, and his tone carried an unquestionable meaning.But Claire obviously agreed with his approach by raising his eyebrows: "No, it's too dangerous."

"It doesn't matter, if I go alone, my chances of surviving are greater than the two of you combined."

What Tang Chu said was the truth, without any intention of irony or showing off.The surrounding temperature has dropped below zero. Although it won't freeze people to death, it will definitely cause people to move slowly.And in such a dangerous world, every second of hesitation will cause some irreversible things to happen.

Obviously Cross also thought of this, and he knew Tang Chu's perverted system firsthand, so he didn't speak at the moment, leaning on the car and waiting for Claire's reaction.

"Hey, you..." Claire grabbed Tang Chu's wrist, "You really—"

Tang Chu twitched the corner of his mouth, then held the gun in his hand, his tone was calm: "I never joke."

"but--"

"……kindness?"

"You—" Claire stopped talking in the end, she just stretched out her hand and put the walkie-talkie in Tang Chu's hand, which was warm with human body temperature.

"Contact us anytime, remember, we are companions."

companion……

Cross came over, and in his hand was a map, on which a point of origin was circled with a black marker, and then there was an extended black straight line.

"right here."

Kloss pointed out his finger, then raised his head to look at Tang Chu, his face flushed slightly: "If, I mean, if you really need it, I can accompany you there, after all..."

"Wordy."

Tang Chu finally became impatient. He stretched out his hand and rubbed Kloss's head, which made Kloss startled.

"Worry, of course I'll be back." Tang Chu pressed the bridge of his nose, then walked towards the place marked on the map without looking back.

His back was slender but with an unreasonable sense of tenacity, and Cross' eyes gradually dimmed as he left.

Claire seemed to feel something, her fist tightened and loosened, then she turned her head and gave Cross a serious look: "He didn't come back within an hour..."

The two looked at each other, with the rising sun in the background.

-

Tang Chu chose to go out this time, and the reason was actually not as noble as he said.What kind of person he is, he knows best in his heart, and such things as sacrificing his life will never appear in his budget.

Tang Chu felt that someone was watching him, to be precise, surveillance.

But obviously there was no one around, and even if there were creatures, they were just zombies. A low roar came through the thick snow, Tang Chu tidied up and moved the realization back to the map in his hand.

He was walking towards the legendary black swamp, and the smell of carrion around him became more and more obvious, but there was still a large expanse of crystal white as far as he could see.

He temporarily suppressed the unpleasant feeling of being watched by someone, and discerned his position. After he was sure that he had roughly reached his destination, he realized that the so-called swamp was completely gone in front of him.

There is only snow, all over the mountains and plains, endless.

But even so, Tang Chu was still not sure whether those fragile ice layers could withstand repeated crushing by two cars.

He squatted down and was about to test the thickness of the ice layer when he suddenly heard rustling voices behind him.

Tang Chu's body reaction was always faster than his brain's. He almost subconsciously put his finger on the trigger, leaned his straight and slender legs back, and looked like a leopard ready to go!

"Don't shoot, man!"

A masculine voice sounded, but Tang Chu's fingers didn't relax a bit.

The dangerous atmosphere was on the verge of breaking out, and a person slowly appeared in the field of vision.

A... man?

Tang Chu's fingers moved slightly, but the muzzle of the gun still followed the man's body straightly.The man was covered with a tight-fitting military vest and a leather jacket outside. His exposed muscles were well defined, his body was straight and slender, and a pair of beautiful brown eyes stared closely at Tang Chu.

"Dude, I'm human, put the gun down."

Tang Chu moved the tip of the gun to signal the man to approach.The man just walked over carelessly, and the Asian face in front of him was definitely not as easy to get along with as he seemed.

When he still wanted Xiaozhi to use emotion and reason to stop this Asian from killing his own kind, he suddenly heard the young man who didn't talk much at first glance speak.

"Clothes, take off."

"...?!"

Looking at the stunned man in front of him, Tang Chu's mood suddenly improved a little, but according to his character, he was too lazy to explain what he said.

"All?" The man's expression was strange.

Tang Chu nodded expressionlessly.

"kindness."

Our classmate Carlos, who is full of masculine beauty, can die peacefully even in the midst of zombies, for the first time in his life, he is stupid.
