Chapter 28: Chapter 28: Kids Are Impossible

“Xiao Fan, are you okay?”

Bai Zhengxuan looked at Bai Yifan with a kind face.

Bai Yifan reluctantly shook his head, glancing at the bloody zombie on the ground with lingering fear, his numbed legs taking a step back.

“Since you’re okay, help Grandpa kill a zombie, will you?”

Bai Zhengxuan still had a kind face and hid behind Bai Yifan.

This bloody scene was really not suitable for a retired teacher who spent his life educating others!

Bai Yifan: …

Has his grandpa gone crazy?

Can’t he see he’s the weakest?

Even his dad is stronger than him, right?

“Grandpa, you don’t need to be afraid, just chop off its head with a long sword, or you can use your superpower to attack its head!”

Bai Xiqin’s fingers moved slightly, and a zombie flew in front of Bai Zhengxuan.

“Roar—”

The zombie roared angrily but was restrained by an invisible force, unable to move.

“Then, then don’t let go!”

Bai Zhengxuan gripped the long sword and slashed fiercely toward the zombie’s head.

The sword tip barely grazed the zombie’s head, a strand of hair with dark red bloodstains fell to the ground.

Everyone: …

“Honey, don’t be afraid, it’s just a corpse!” Liu Jing gently patted Bai Zhengxuan’s shoulder, “Use your superpower to attack it, to avoid close contact!”

Bai Zhengxuan took a deep breath and silently put down the long sword.

Never thought he’d have to learn to wield a sword at his age!

“Roar—”

The zombie still roared menacingly at Bai Zhengxuan.

Bai Zhengxuan extended his hand, fiery flames rose at his fingertips, and he still felt immensely unsettled inside.

“Um, um, I’ve no grudges with it, perhaps we should let it go?”

Bai Zhengxuan weakly looked at Bai Xiqin.

He was a righteous people’s teacher who never got into fights.

“Huh, why does this zombie look so familiar?” Bai Xiqin suddenly looked at the zombie in surprise, “This looks like the zombie that ate Grandpa in the dream!”

Bai Xiqin had long told her family that in the dream, their whole family was eaten by zombies.

“What?”

Bai Zhengxuan’s eyes widened, the flames at his fingertips rapidly intensified, a scorching fire shot towards the zombie’s head.

Sizzle—

The zombie’s head instantly turned charred black.

But that wasn’t all, a powerful stream of water rushed at the zombie’s head, instantly extinguishing the flames.

The powerful water stream left the zombie bald, and then green sprouts shot straight through the zombie’s temples.

“Grandpa, that’s enough.”

Bai Xiqin’s mouth twitched as she looked at the zombie wholly wrapped in green vines.

Her grandpa, a user of three-element superpowers—water, fire, wood—was nearing Second Rank on the first day of the apocalypse!

Bai Zhengxuan looked at the zombie lying there with lingering fear and weakly asked, “Now, it can’t eat me, right?”

“Not necessarily, I could be mistaken,” Bai Xiqin calmly replied.

Bai Zhengxuan: …

One zombie remained, Bai Xiqin solved it with a steel needle.

The crystal cores from these three zombies were all personally removed by Liu Jing.

“Sis, had enough fun? We should go back!”

Bai Yifan listened to the zombie howls in the distance, feeling utterly distraught inside.

“Xiao Fan, don’t be scared! As a man, you must be brave, protect your parents, wife, and daughters in the future, set an example for future children!”

Bai Zhengxuan had just killed a little cutie, and felt slightly inflated inside.

Bai Yifan silently glanced at the deformed zombie and then looked up at the sky.

Children are impossible, never happening in this life!

He was almost scared to death!

Who knows when he’ll be zombie food, let alone talking about children?

“Let’s go! Let’s clear out our unit first!” Bai Xiqin said.

“…What?”

Bai Anhai felt a bit conflicted inside.

The people in this unit were all neighbors; although not all were known, you could see several familiar faces riding the elevator together.

Now…

“If we don’t clear them out, we won’t sleep well at night.” Bai Xiqin gave Bai Anhai a penetrating look, “In case the zombies get stronger and break out…”

“Let’s go up now and take them down!”

Bai Anhai gripped the long sword with a decisive face!

Rumor has it he was killed by zombies in his past life, definitely not giving them the chance!

When leaving, Bai Xiqin moved the zombies in the hallway outside, and Bai Zhengxuan set them ablaze.

Black smoke slowly rose, the crackling sound incredibly distinct.

Bai Xiqin looked up at the building, spotting someone at the window watching the commotion below.

However, as soon as they caught Bai Xiqin’s gaze, many flinched back.

As if Bai Xiqin and her family were fierce gods from hell.

On the first day of the apocalypse, most people still retained their previous kindness, waiting for rescue.

After a week, when the vast majority of households run out of food and rescue doesn’t come, how many still hold onto that kindness?

After the family re-entered the building, they locked the exit door on the first floor, zombies couldn’t yet open doors, only people could.

“How about we split into three groups?” Bai Xiqin looked at everyone, “Mom and Dad in one group, Grandpa, Grandma, and Bai Yifan in another, and me with Leng Yebai!”

With zombies, can’t have the whole family rushing up; too many people could lead to mistakes.

“Okay!”

Bai Yifan silently stood behind Liu Jing.

It’s not that he was dependent on the elderly, he just felt Grandma’s back was very reliable.

Afterward, the family started knocking on doors one by one.

If no one answered, then it was empty, or there were survivors.

If there were zombie howls inside, Leng Yebai would cut open the lock, and one group after another would go in to kill the zombies.

Each household was a family.

The family felt slightly heavy-hearted.

The most disheartening was a four-generation family all turned into zombies.

The little baby couldn’t stand up yet, but its face was twisted, and what came from its throat wasn’t a child’s cry, but a faint howl.

With a heavy heart, Liu Jing released ice needles, freeing a family of seven.

With two households per floor, and eighteen floors in total, there were 36 households in this unit.

Bai Xiqin’s family opened ten doors, inside were all zombies.

This didn’t mean the likelihood of humans turning into zombies was low, rather, it was a low residency rate in the building.

Bai Xiqin didn’t gather resources from the building, having plenty in space, no need to cut off the neighbors’ escape routes.

When the family returned home, it was already evening.

Everyone felt a bit heavy-hearted.

Bai Anhai and Bai Zhengxuan silently went to the kitchen to cook, making only a few simple vegetarian dishes this time.

“Tonight we need to go to the pharmacy and gas station, Mom and Dad, let’s go together?” Bai Xiqin looked at Bai Anhai and his wife.

At the beginning of the apocalypse, humans still held onto initial kindness; the first few days were the best for gathering supplies.

“Alright!”

Bai Anhai nodded briskly.

Having realized the harshness of the apocalypse, even if scared, they had to be on the front line.

“I’ll go with you.”

Leng Yebai said softly.

Bai Xiqin smiled at Leng Yebai and nodded gently.

Leng Yebai had been living with Bai Xiqin’s family for some time, and the two got along well, leaving only that layer of window paper unopened.

“I want to go too!” Bai Yifan said.

He was ready with adult diapers!
