I am the barbarian king

Chapter 7 Xu Sulan

January 2025, 5 15:21
The fourth floor of No. 12 Haoyuan Villa.

In a bedroom, a beautiful woman with a plump figure and a little girl who looked like eleven or twelve years old were sitting hugging on the edge of the window.

"Mom, I'm hungry!"

The little girl whispered timidly, her eyes were swollen, and several tear stains were faintly visible on her face, obviously she had cried many times.

"Nannan, please bear with me..." Xu Sulan touched Wang Nannan's head and whispered a few words of comfort.

They are a mother and daughter who live in Villa No. 12 and live an ordinary life.

Who knew that at twelve noon today, the end of the world came.

The nanny seemed to have changed, with a ferocious face and pale eyes, chasing them crazily.

Just like that, the mother and daughter hid in a bedroom.

"Bang bang~!"

The two had just whispered a few words when there was another knock on the door.

"Mother……"

Wang Nannan shrank into Xu Sulan's arms in fear, trembling.

Xu Sulan comforted: "Nan Nan, don't be afraid, she can't come in..."

Nine hours have passed since twelve noon. If the mutated nanny was still sensible and knew how to open the door, they would have died long ago.

During this time, Xu Sulan tried everything possible, including calling the police, calling her husband for help, and so on.

Without exception, it cannot be connected.

Not only that, hiding behind the curtains, she can see the outside world clearly. On the street, there are countless guys like nannies, crazily preying on the living people, and the screams can be heard endlessly.

Xu Sulan didn't know what was going on in this world, but those crazy guys were very similar to a doomsday movie she had seen.

Zombies...

Although she couldn't believe it, but the facts were in front of her eyes, Xu Sulan understood that some kind of change had really taken place in this world, zombies really appeared.

The most frightening thing is that there is one in their home, which is watching and guarding the door at the moment. Whenever there is any chance, it will eat them without mercy.

Thinking of this, Xu Sulan felt powerless and wanted to cry, but in front of her daughter, she had to be strong.

At the beginning, she planned to wait for rescue. She believed that the outside world would not ignore such a big incident in Long'an, and the country would definitely come to rescue.

But now, she couldn't wait any longer.

For nine hours, the two of them, mother and daughter, hadn't eaten their morning meal, and they have been hungry until now. She can resist, but what about her daughter?
However, the only thing that made her feel lucky was that her daughter happened to have a stomachache today and came back from a leave of absence. Otherwise, she would not know how to live if her daughter encountered this situation at school alone.

"Hoo~!"

Xu Sulan let out a breath slowly, dispelled the fantasy of waiting for rescue in her mind, and began to think about the problems she was facing now.

She didn't know when the rescue would come, but if it was delayed, the two of them might die of starvation and thirst.

Therefore, you must save yourself!

After observing for most of the day, Xu Sulan also discovered some patterns of these zombies.

For example, with extremely poor eyesight, it chases the living with its hearing.

Around this point, Xu Sulan suddenly thought of a solution.

If she opened the door, led the zombies away, and closed them to the balcony, then they would be able to leave the bedroom.

There are two doors on the balcony, just let this zombie run with me, go in through one door, and then come out the other...

Xu Sulan didn't know how feasible the plan was, but she had to fight for her daughter.

"Nan Nan, listen to me, rescue won't come soon, we need to save ourselves!"

Xu Sulan lifted Wang Nannan's head from her arms, looked into her eyes and said seriously:

"After a while, mom will open the door and go out to lure the zombie away. After you wait for mom to go out, close the door as soon as possible, and don't let it in..."

Wang Nannan has grown up, so how could she not understand what her mother meant, and burst into tears immediately.

"Mom, I don't want to leave you!"

She felt that her mother wanted to sacrifice herself to lure away the zombies and create conditions for her own survival.

"Stupid boy, mom doesn't worry about you living alone in this world, mom doesn't want to sacrifice herself..."

Xu Sulan smiled and said, "Mom is planning to lure the zombie to the balcony and lock it up, so that we can find food..."

"How do you close it?" Wang Nannan's crying stopped a little bit, but she still asked worriedly.

Xu Sulan smiled and said, "Nan Nan, mom found out that these zombies have poor eyesight and intelligence, and chasing people depends on their hearing..."

"You think, mom runs towards the balcony, it runs along, then mom goes in through the first door, waits for the zombies to follow to the balcony, then mom goes out through the second door, and then closes the door, at this time, the zombie just chased to the second door Next to the first door, and then mother quickly ran to the first door from the outside, and closed this door, when the time came, the zombie would be completely unable to move..."

She smiled and said, "Think about it, it has been outside our door for nine hours, but it can't even open the door. It's stupid, and it can't beat mom..."

After another burst of appeasement, Wang Nannan accepted Xu Sulan's plan.

When the two came to the door, as if they smelled delicious food, the zombies outside the door began to violently hit the door.

Wang Nannan was a little scared when she heard the impact, as if something was beating in her heart.

"Nannan, you must remember that as soon as mom goes out, you will close the door immediately, do you understand?!"

What Xu Sulan was most worried about was that Wang Nannan didn't close the door. The most likely possibility for the zombie was not to chase her, but to attack Wang Nannan directly.

After Wang Nannan repeatedly assured that she would definitely close the door as soon as possible, Xu Sulan was relieved.

She came to the door and looked out through the crack, as if in response, a frightened eyeball without white was looking at her in the same place.

For a moment, Xu Sulan only felt numb all over, and a cold sweat poured from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.

But she quickly suppressed the fear in her heart and began to knock on the other side of the door.

She needs to move the zombie a little bit, at least to let her open the door to block the zombie a little bit, so as to create an escape environment.

Xu Sulan was very disturbed, afraid that her guess was wrong.

But fortunately, the zombies really don't have much intelligence, so they left the crack of the door very stupidly, and ran to the crack on the other side of the door with hinges.

Seeing this scene, Xu Sulan made a decisive decision, quickly took off her shoes, then pushed down the doorknob, pushed the door outwards forcefully, turned her head to run away, and shouted loudly: "Nannan, close the door!"

Although Wang Nannan was terrified, at this time, she didn't think about anything, only remembered her mother's advice, and with tears in her eyes, she closed the door forcefully again.

Hearing the sound of zombies following Xu Sulan outside the door, Wang Nannan prayed silently in her heart with tears in her eyes.
