I take skeletons to the apocalypse

The glimmer of the rising sun pierced through the pitch-black sky and scattered from the sky.On the expressway on the outskirts of Lanshu City, traffic was densely jammed into a long queue.The roads entering and exiting the city were all tightly blocked.Harsh whistles, scolding, and urging sounds, one after another.

At the edge of the highway, a barefooted, silver-haired young man in cotton white short-sleeved pajamas was riding a bicycle slowly towards the city.

His clothes were stained with leaves and dust, his back was scratched a few times by thorns, and his body also had many scratches and bruises.There was a layer of sweat on his forehead, mixed with blood and mud, and he was very embarrassed.

"Ding dong."

"Go straight, after 500 meters ahead, enter the toll booth."

When the notification sounded on the phone, Xia Xi glanced down. The screen of the phone was shattered into cobwebs, the images were not clearly visible, and less than [-]% of the battery was left.He held the handlebar with one hand, tapped the screen with the other, exited the navigation program, and pressed the power off button.

In order to avoid the pursuit of the man with glasses and his group, Xia Xi rode in the woods for a whole night last night, and finally rode on the high speed to the city.

In Xia Xi's view, if you go outside the city, there are few people and it is easy to be overtaken. In the wilderness, it will be easier for the opponent to attack. It is almost a dead end.But entering the city is different.

Faced with a sudden disaster, some people will choose to go out of the city, while others feel that the city is safer, some just want to escape far away, and some will find ways to reunite with their families.So after a night of fermentation, the highways entering and exiting the city will definitely be very congested.

Even if the man with glasses sends a car to chase him, he will be blocked on the road.

After he entered the city, facing the chaotic city and the large number of floating population in the city, Liu Peng's people wanted to find him, which was tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.

"Gululu..." There was a burning hunger in his stomach. Xia Xi had been hungry for a day and a night without even drinking his saliva, and now he drove dozens of kilometers all night. The crystal nucleus, I am afraid that if I don't persist, I will be so hungry that I will faint now.

However, although the crystal nucleus can temporarily supplement the body's energy, it is only for emergency use temporarily, and it is not a long-term solution.Fortunately, he was finally going to the city.There may still be restaurants open these days. After entering the city, he will find a place to have a good meal, and then take a hot bath and sleep beautifully.

Xia Xi walked past the toll booth. There were no people at the artificial windows here, all the railings and barriers were broken, and the road was jammed with cars with no end in sight.

Xia Xi stuck to the edge and continued to ride forward top-heavy. When he was approaching the fork in the road, suddenly a boy rushed out diagonally.

Xia Xi was so hungry that he was dizzy and had no time to dodge. He was hit head-on, knocking Xia Xi and his car to the ground.

The boy's footsteps only paused slightly, he didn't even say sorry, and continued to run along the road without looking back.

Xia Xi stood up rubbing her sore buttocks, and reached for the handle of the bicycle.

There was a slight vibration on the ground, and dozens of people passed by Xia Xi's side quickly. They looked terrified, and some of them ran and shouted "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh come over.

Seeing them like this, some car owners who were still waiting for Lutong in the car couldn't sit still anymore. They opened the doors one after another and got out of the car to ask about the situation.Xia Xi helped the car to the side of the road, carefully avoiding the running crowd.

A thin woman holding a child was tripped by Xia Xi's bicycle.Seeing that he was about to fall on Xia Xi, Xia Xi hurriedly reached out to support him: "Be careful."

"Thank you, thank you." The woman's face was a little pale, because she was out of breath because she ran too fast.

She was obviously sweating profusely and exhausted, but she just stood still and hurried forward, and reminded Xia Xi: "Hurry up, there is..."

"What? What the hell are you running?" The owner of the white car next to him hurriedly grabbed him and asked.

"There are mice, hundreds of them that are bigger than cats, and they are coming this way. They bite people when they see them, and they will die if they are surrounded!" The woman answered intermittently. The child hugged tightly, and hurriedly ran forward.

A mouse bigger than a cat?Is it a mutant beast?

Xia Xi picked up the bicycle, patted the dirt on her body, and stepped on it again.As soon as he stepped on the pedal, he felt a large energy wave approaching rapidly.

Then one large stock became many small stocks, scrambling to emerge from the corner.It was the same group of rats that the woman had mentioned earlier.

It is not very accurate to say that it is bigger than a cat. The size of these mice is not uniform. The smallest is about the size of a small dog, and the big one is half the height of a person. A large group of mice is densely packed, rushing towards the toll booth come over.

Their sharp front teeth seem to protrude long, like two steel cones, knocking on the car window and windshield, smashing spider web-shaped grin until the glass is completely shattered, and then using short but powerful front teeth The claws pulled the man out of the car, and the rats swarmed up to share the food quickly.

Every time a person is eaten, their size will increase a little bit.It was as if the eaten meat and bones had grown directly onto the body.

It is a variation of phagocytosis.

Xia Xi has seen all kinds of monsters with various abilities in Wuer Continent, and quickly determined the corresponding ability of this mouse.This kind of monster is very common in Wuer Continent. They can convert the food they eat into their own magic energy, and depending on the difficulty and conversion rate of the conversion, they will have a special preference for certain things, such as humans.

When people on the road saw this situation, most of them chose to abandon their cars and run away.Although the mutant mice run very fast, because they want to eat people, generally speaking, as long as they outrun the people around them, they have a chance to survive.

Xia Xi didn't follow the flow of people and ran out. He rode all night to the city from the outside. Seeing that he had already entered the city, he didn't want to leave just like that.Besides, there is no guarantee of absolute safety wherever he goes in this world. Right now, he just wants to find a place to eat.

Xia Xi stepped on the pedals hard a few times, dodged the rushing mice and continued riding towards the city along the main road.

The mouse that was thrown away opened its dark eyes and looked back at the direction Xia Xi left, and then at the crowd running and shouting in front, as if weighing which side was more worth chasing.In the end, most of them chose the direction with more people.

Only a mouse, slightly bigger than a cat, ran towards Xia Xi in hot pursuit.

Xia Xi speeded up her cycling.He rode along the main road for a while, and suddenly heard a clear female voice calling him from the street corner: "Hey, come in, this way!"

It was a girl with a ponytail, who looked about 23 or [-] years old, and was wearing a tracksuit.She was standing on the side of the road, holding on to a rolling door, and was trying to wave to Xia Xi.

Inside the rolling door is a glass door that opens inwards, and one can vaguely see the exquisite and elegant decoration inside.

Xia Xi looked up along the rolling door, and the store's sign was in the shape of an orange cat, round and cute, with the words - Fat Orange Sweet House.

It's actually a dessert shop!

Xia Xi paused suddenly when she stepped on the pedal, pulled the front of the car, and turned to the narrow side road where the girl was.

The mouse behind him was already very close, Xia Xi jumped off the bicycle, threw the handlebar in the direction of the mouse, and ran into the cake shop by herself.

Seeing him coming in, the ponytail girl immediately pulled down the roller blind as fast as she could.The mice that came after were isolated outside the roller shutter.

"Squeak" the mouse screamed impatiently, its teeth gnawed hard on the roller blind, making a piercing rubbing sound.

The heavy rolling shutter door was slightly deformed, but it was still solid. After a few minutes, the sound of footsteps outside gradually faded away.The surroundings became quiet, and the people inside also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you just now." Xia Xi thanked the ponytail girl.

The ponytail girl waved her hand neatly: "You're welcome, the situation is special, please help if you can."

He stretched out his hand to Xia Xi again: "My name is Zhang Lin, and I am the owner of this shop."

Xia Xixu shook the other party's fingers: "My name is Xia Xi."

Taking advantage of Zhang Lin's time to roll up the curtain, Xia Xi looked at the furnishings in the store.

The main color of the store is light green, decorated with white daisies. When the cake shop enters and exits, there is a counter with a few cakes scattered on it, which should be leftovers from last night's sale.There is a half-open door inside the counter, and the operating room inside can be vaguely seen.On the other side, a swing chair is placed.Along the corridor, there are several tables for entertaining guests, covered with small checkered cloths.The shop is not big, but it is very clean.

The decoration is not expensive, but it shows the owner's intentions, coupled with the faint sweetness of the cake, it is a very comfortable environment.Xia Xi couldn't help but miss Jing Lan's newly opened dessert shop.

The store is even smaller than here, because it has just opened and there are not many customers yet.Xia Xi likes it there, he likes to sit by the window, the sunset in the evening and the sweetness of the cake will give him an illusion of happiness.

Zhang Lin asked Xia Xi to sit down, and poured him a glass of warm water: "I came to open the store this morning, and I felt something was wrong on the road. Those are all monsters on the road. No one answered the call to the police. No one said anything on the Internet. Yes...Actually, I'm not just helping you, in the current situation, I'm afraid to stay in the store by myself, if there are more people, at least I have a companion."

"Hmm." Xia Xi put down the paper cup he had drunk.Hearing a little distracted.

The sweet aroma of those cakes collided with the hunger in his stomach, driving him crazy.But his upbringing didn't allow him to be rude in front of ladies.He could only try his best to maintain a decent sitting posture, but his eyes couldn't help looking straight at the cake in the cabinet next to him.

"Are you hungry?" Zhang Lin followed Xia Xi's eyes and looked over. In the cupboard were leftover cakes from last night's sale.

Xia Xi pursed her lower lip lightly, showing a bit of embarrassment and shyness.

Zhang Lin got up and opened the cabinet, took a piece of tiramisu mille-feuille, put it on a delicate plate, poured out another glass of milk, and brought it to Xia Xi: "The mille-flour is leftover from yesterday's sale, if you don't mind it , let’s fill it up first, I don’t lack any ingredients here, if you want to eat anything, I’ll help you make it.”

"This one is already very good. Thank you." Xia Xi picked up the knife and fork, even though his eyes were black with hunger, the way he ate was still pleasing to the eye.

Zhang Lin looked Xia Xi up and down. There was a beautiful young man with an elegant temperament in the tattered pajamas. This feeling was extremely contradictory: "I just wanted to ask, did something happen to you? Why are you wearing pajamas? Cycling down the street?"

Xia Xi showed a wry smile, swallowed the food in his mouth, and took a sip of milk: "I was kidnapped, and it was on the outskirts of the city. They didn't give me food and drink, and they planned to kill me. Last night, there suddenly appeared Mutated creeper, I was lucky, I rode a bicycle in the chaos, and ran out overnight."

"Kidnapping! Let me tell you, you look like a young master from a rich family. Look at the injury on your body, have you suffered a lot these days?"

Zhang Lin didn't know what to imagine, and a bit of sympathy immediately appeared on her face: "You just need to escape, I'm afraid there will be chaos outside for a few days, you can live here with peace of mind, there is a shower in the back bathroom, and the kitchen There is a lounge inside, you can take a shower first, and I will get you medicine in the medicine box later, and then you can sleep well."

Xia Xi really needed to take a bath and get a good night's sleep. He didn't refuse, and obediently waited for Zhang Lin to bring him slippers and a bath towel.

When Xia Xi applied the medicine to herself, Zhang Lin was concentrating on making breakfast. Hearing Xia Xi's footsteps approaching, Zhang Lin turned her head and smiled, and said softly, "Are you hungry? The meal will be ready soon."

Xia Xi's mind was in a trance for a moment, Zhang Lin in front of her eyes overlapped with Jing Lan in her memory before she lost her memory.

The tip of Xia Xi's nose was a little pantothenic. He touched the phone with a broken screen, and suddenly missed Jing Lan a little bit.

"Do you have a charging cable here, I want to charge my phone."

"It's on the socket at the head of the bed in the rest room." Zhang Lin glanced at Xia Xi's cell phone model: "We are the same model, you can just use it directly. You have been missing for so long, and caught up with the chaos outside, the family must Worry about it."

Xia Xi didn't answer.He wondered if Jing Lan would be worried about him after amnesia, but he still clicked on the phone with the broken screen and fumbled to find Jing Lan's phone.

Maybe Jing Lan won't answer.Xia Xi thought this way while waiting, but unexpectedly, this time, the phone was connected after two rings.Jing Lan's voice came through the earpiece accurately.
