Apocalypse Tree of Hope

Chapter 247 Midnight tryst
"No reason, it's personal taste." Tao Haiyang said as he picked up a piece of grass with his slender fingers and kneaded it.

"Cut, troublesome." Tang Tang gave him a white look.

In the middle of the night, the vast sky looked even more beautiful. The dark blue and pure sky was dotted with bright stars. Under the stars, a thousand or so people took turns falling asleep in the summer evening wind.

This scene is actually very spectacular, especially the big men who have been tired all day, all snoring one after another, which made the people in charge of security itch their teeth with hatred: "Damn, these guys are thundering, and they are not afraid of recruiting zombies!" come over."

"Hey, forget it, when it's your turn to sleep, the sound is even louder than this." Another person laughed.

Wei Xiuning opened his black jade-like eyes, his eyes swept over the members of the Ivy League team one by one, and finally fixed on Lin Rantong's face.

The starlight fell on her face, making her already fair face look as if it was made of high-quality white marble, and the small fan-like eyelashes drooped quietly, casting a dark shadow on the eye socket.

Wei Xiuning paused for a moment, then slowly stood up.

As he walked out, the person in charge of security stopped him and said, "Mr. Wei, what is this?"

"I can't sleep, go over there to practice." Wei Xiuning reached out and pointed to the group of corpses in the distance.

Although his tone was flat, it made the guards feel pressured. They wanted to persuade them, but in the end they didn't dare to say anything, they just said to be careful.

Wei Xiuning gradually approached the group of corpses, and those zombies were indeed more sensitive at night. He barely made any sound, and his body was dripped with a special juice to cover up the smell. There were still high-level zombies looking in his direction.

Wei Xiuning, like a god of death descending from the darkness, brandished a sickle and began to harvest the lives of the zombies.

A large number of zombies fell down, and Wei Xiuning's movements became more and more smooth. In the end, it seemed to be dancing rhythmically, with a unique rhythm in it.

Wei Xiuning only felt nothing in his heart, and stopped his hands when he felt the heat flow in his body break through a barrier.

He glanced at him as the center, as if forming a circle, the old and tall zombie corpses piled up, bowed his head and turned back.

During this period of time, the progress of cultivation has been very fast, and it has finally reached the fourth stage.

Wei Xiuning walked to the place where the ivy was, and just sat down, Lin Rantong turned over and sat up, looked up at the crystal beads of sweat on his forehead, and asked, "Why, can't sleep?"

Wei Xiuning nodded: "I feel like I'm about to be promoted, and I can't have a good time during the day."

Lin Rantong smiled: "How much is it now?"

"Fourth stage high stage." Wei Xiuning answered briefly.

Lin Rantong's eyes lit up: "Not bad, congratulations."

After leaving that mysterious valley for so long, I have never stopped cultivating, and now I have just stepped into the peak. It may take a long time to rise to the fifth level. I didn't expect Wei Xiuning to reach the high level so soon. Yes, he was in the valley back then, but he couldn't break through to the fourth level for a long time.

"Thank you." Wei Xiuning said.

"Hurry up and go to sleep, tomorrow is a busy day." Lin Rantong said.

Wei Xiuning let out an "um" and lay down.

Lin Rantong smiled and closed his eyes.

In a daze, Lin Rantong felt that someone was pulling her hand. She wanted to open her eyes, but because she was in a sleepy state, she couldn't control her body for a while. How dare you come to take advantage of yourself in the middle of the night?
Could it be Tao Haiyang?No, although that guy is unrestrained, he also has his own persistence, and he will never do such a thing.

Lin Rantong slowly regained control of her body, opened her eyes vigorously, and then her pupils dilated suddenly, and she swallowed back the exclamation that reached her mouth.

Just because the person in front of her was dressed in black, with a veil covering her face, it was Liu Yuan who she had been thinking all along, why didn't he come to her!

Liu Yuan pulled Lin Rantong up, and led her to the distance with very light steps.

Tao Haiyang opened his eyes, looked at the direction where Lin Rantong disappeared, his face was so heavy that water dripped out, then he jumped up and chased in that direction.

Liu Yuan led Lin Rantong across the dense crowd of corpses, and stopped at a former gas station on the edge of the county seat.

Lin Rantong was surprised to find that those zombies avoided Liu Yuan intentionally or unintentionally.

The two entered the lounge dedicated to gas station employees, and Liu Yuan stopped and looked at Lin Rantong.

Seeing that he was silent, Lin Rantong suddenly felt aggrieved, hugged him at once, then pinched a piece of flesh around his waist with his right hand and said, "Why are you here now!"

If it was normal, Liu Yuan would definitely take a deep breath and beg for mercy: "My wife, let go quickly, it hurts to death, I confess, I confess."

But this time, his exposed eyes flickered, and then he hugged Lin Rantong fiercely.

Lin Rantong only felt that in this powerful and familiar embrace, her heart was beating fast, the feeling of soreness, pain, joy and grievance seemed to burst her little heart.

Lin Rantong closed his eyes, and let out a long breath against Liu Yuan's chest, but then he was taken aback, and his heart gradually sank.

Why, why Liu Yuan has no heartbeat!

An indescribable panic was like a big hand, pinching Lin Rantong's throat fiercely, preventing her from making any sound, and she just felt the coldness of his embrace amidst more and more panic. One piece, without a trace of warmth.

Liu Yuan seemed to have noticed Lin Rantong's abnormality, and his hands holding her tightly loosened slightly, and one hand reached out to the top of her head, rubbing her hair vigorously.

Lin Rantong only felt his nose sour, and finally couldn't help but said, "Husband, what's wrong with you?"

Liu Yuan gently pushed Lin Rantong away and looked at her silently.

Only then did Lin Rantong remember that Liu Yuan seemed unable to speak.

She hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Honey, have you become a dark power user?"

Liu Yuan nodded.

"Then, becoming a dark-type supernatural being is different from other supernatural beings. What changes have taken place in your body?" Lin Rantong gritted his teeth and asked.

No matter what changes happen to him, he is still her husband and Ranran's father. If he can live, I have to thank God, what more can I ask for.

But looking at him like this, there must be something hard to hide, so he hid from himself, took this opportunity, and simply asked the question clearly, so that he might be less worried and scrupled.

Liu Yuan shook his head, then nodded again.

Although the two have been married for many years, he couldn't speak like this, and nodded and shook his head again. He couldn't understand it.

"Husband, are you unable to speak?" Lin Rantong asked again, she wanted to determine whether Liu Yuan could not speak or did not want to speak.

Liu Yuan nodded again.

Lin Rantong flipped her hand, and a fountain pen and a notebook appeared in front of Liu Yuan. She gently pushed forward and said, "Husband, just write down what you want to say."

Holding the pen, Liu Yuan hesitated staring at the notebook in front of him, as if he didn't know where to start writing.

Lin Rantong didn't rush, but looked at him calmly and gently.

Liu Yuan looked at his wife who was looking at him with a smile, suddenly put down the pen and paper, slowly raised his right hand, and the gloved fingertips touched the mask covering his face.

Lin Rantong only felt her heart lift up, she was a little nervous and dared not look at him who was always calm, but she kept staring at his face tightly for fear of missing even a little bit.

Lin Rantong secretly told himself to be calm, no matter what he saw, he should not show abnormalities.

Liu Yuan slowly pulled away the face scarf, looked at Lin Rantong quietly, but tightly clenched his hanging hands.

Lin Rantong's eyes widened slightly, carefully sizing up Liu Yuan, who hadn't seen his face for nearly a year.

His sword eyebrows were thick and black, his eyes were as bright as stardust, and there were indescribable emotions in them.The lines of the face are not as sharp-edged as Wei Xiuning, nor as delicate as Tao Haiyang, but just right and gentle.

Lin Rantong looked carefully, from his eyebrows and eyes to his chin, there was light blue stubble on his chin, just like when he had just shaved before, his face didn't seem to have changed in any way.

However, Lin Rantong glanced at Liu Yuan's complexion and became a little confused.

He used to have light wheat-colored skin, so once he smiled, matching his sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, he looked very sunny and cheerful, which made people feel warm in their hearts.

And she was moved by his temperament in the first place. She herself has experienced too much depression, so she especially likes this kind of sunny, cheerful, and clean-looking man.

But now, under the hazy moonlight, his skin looked extraordinarily fair, and his fair skin was faintly tinged with blue.

Lin Rantong couldn't help but move closer to take a closer look, Liu Yuan took a step back and smiled bitterly.

Lin Rantong was taken aback: "Honey, your teeth—"

With this smile, Lin Rantong saw that Liu Yuan's mouth showed two sharp teeth, just like the fangs of those zombies that he had seen countless times...

Lin Rantong's heart seemed to have been severely hammered by a heavy hammer, and it hurt so badly that his body couldn't help shaking.

Now she finally understood what it meant when Liu Yuan nodded and shook his head just now. He shook his head to say that he hadn't changed because he became a dark-type power user, but he nodded to tell her that his body had indeed changed. Change, because, because he turned into a zombie!
Lin Rantong tried his best to calm down his face, but his heart was turbulent.

Ever since she met Liu Yuan that time, she subconsciously ignored what Xia Yongjia said at the beginning about Liu Yuan being scratched by a zombie, and always thought about what adventures he had. Now it seems that she is too optimistic, and he is still irresistible Some of them have become zombies, but it seems that they have become zombies with memory and the ability of dark powers.

Lin Rantong felt uncomfortable when he thought that his beloved husband had been equated with those disgusting zombies, and tears began to flow uncontrollably.

No wonder, no wonder he has been avoiding himself, he has always stayed among these zombies, how painful it must be for him who has human emotions.

Thinking of this, Lin Rantong felt more pain in his heart.
