Chapter 109
Yu Qingxian also didn't know why people in this area really liked wooden furniture.
Even in the temporary homes of these nomadic people, the furniture was made of wood, with carvings and hand-painted designs.
It would be a bit awkward if they were suddenly chopped up and burned as firewood.
But that awkwardness only lasted for a few seconds.
When Yu Qingxian saw the Tyrannosaurus Rex enjoying the warmth of the fire, she no longer felt awkward.
Using these pieces of wood to save the little dog's life was a good thing.
It had been snowing for a few days, with no signs of stopping.
Yu Qingxian and the Tyrannosaurus Rex didn't travel far each day.
Originally, at the Tyrannosaurus Rex's speed, it could travel about three hundred kilometers a day.
Especially on this unobstructed path, the Tyrannosaurus Rex could go even faster.
But now that it had snowed, and with enough food, they only walked fifty or sixty kilometers a day.
This place was vast and sparsely populated, though.
Not to mention after the apocalypse—even before, there were very few people.
Of course, during peak tourist seasons, even the uninhabited areas could get congested with traffic.
Fortunately, there weren't that many tourists visiting the northwest before the apocalypse.
That's why Yu Qingxian had not seen any traffic jams in these plateau areas.
After walking for about seven or eight days, Yu Qingxian finally caught a distant glimpse of the white palace.
And this palace was situated in the middle of the City of Sunlight.
Yu Qingxian had learned a little about it before.
This place was called the City of Sunlight because it basked in sunlight for a very long time.
It was also a sacred place that Yu Qingxian had always wanted to visit.
The last place Yu Qingxian wanted to see.
Originally, after seeing this white palace, she might have wanted to dig a hole and bury herself.
But now, Yu Qingxian had a reason she couldn't be so selfish and give up on herself.
Before, it was her parents; now, it's the Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Yu Qingxian felt a bit helpless.
Humans always have various reasons to disrupt or change their thoughts.
But there were indeed zombies in this city, so Yu Qingxian didn't dare wander around with the Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Keeping it locked up in a room, however, didn't seem appropriate either.
So Yu Qingxian untied the sleigh and pointed to the distant white palace, saying, "You can go wait for me there first. I'll come later. As for the sleigh, we don't need it anymore. I've been to the places I wanted to go, so from now on, I'll follow you."
She was now preparing to transfer all the photos from the non-freezing camera to her phone or another camera.
That camera wasn't freeze-resistant, so it wasn't very useful.
As for the two bouquets of flowers in Yu Qingxian's suitcase, she was planning to leave them in this palace.
Because this was her former destination.
But now, she had to continue onward and couldn't stay in this place.
So let those two bouquets represent her former self, resting here.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex was very cooperative and scampered off out of sight.
Yu Qingxian watched it run off before doing her own thing.
With the experience from last time, Yu Qingxian didn't need to take a whole day and night this time.
She finished everything in just one morning.
Yu Qingxian left her suitcase upstairs, containing a few books and that camera.
These were the things Yu Qingxian was leaving behind in this place.
Afterwards, she carried the two bouquets of flowers and headed towards the palace.
Along the way, Yu Qingxian took photos of the bouquets with the surrounding environment, strolling leisurely until she reached the front of the palace.
At this time, everything around was white, making the palace appear even more magnificent and sacred.
When Yu Qingxian found the Tyrannosaurus Rex, it was waiting for her on the upper levels.
She could only climb up slowly.
In fact, there were many places that were probably off-limits before the apocalypse.
But now, Yu Qingxian encountered no obstacles at all.
Yu Qingxian found a suitable spot and placed the two fresh bouquets there.
She also had a palm-sized portable photo printer on her, which printed out the photos she had taken.
Yu Qingxian hugged the Tyrannosaurus Rex and the two bouquets for a photo, then printed it out and placed it beside the bouquets.
After coming down from the palace, Yu Qingxian found a saddle-bag originally meant for carrying things on horseback or ox-back, and tied it onto the Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Inside, she put some dog food and water.
As for the sleigh, Yu Qingxian definitely didn't plan to use it anymore.
Since they weren't in a hurry anymore, they could take it slow.
And Yu Qingxian's belongings were now just the backpack she was carrying.
That backpack was one she had bought before, capable of holding a lot, but she had rarely used it before.
Now, it had accompanied her for a year traveling across the country, and it was a bit worn in some places.
But it was just scratched a little by tree branches, nothing major.
Inside, besides the gun, bullets, a family photo of the four of them, and a map book, there wasn't much else.
Things like axes and entrenching tools were on the Tyrannosaurus Rex.
They were now traveling light.
Yu Qingxian looked around, and seeing no particular place she wanted to go, said, "Tyrannosaurus Rex, from now on, wherever you go, I'll follow you."
Although the Tyrannosaurus Rex didn't fully understand Yu Qingxian's words, it chose a direction to head in.
Yu Qingxian followed behind it.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex knew Yu Qingxian walked slowly, so it paced itself slowly.
With no obligations, Yu Qingxian naturally wandered around taking photos with her camera.
At their leisurely pace, they only covered about twenty kilometers a day.
One night, Yu Qingxian didn't make a fire for the Tyrannosaurus Rex and discovered that it didn't feel cold without fire, so she stopped bothering after that.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex didn't seem to mind either.
Until the end of December, Yu Qingxian's phone finally reconnected to a signal.
For nearly three months, her phone had only had a camera function.
After entering the signal area, her phone received more than ten messages within three minutes.
Some were cold weather precautions and advice not to panic if sick with a fever, but to notify official authorities promptly.
There were also a few photos of zombies attached.
The message said to avoid these zombies if encountered, and it was best to retreat immediately instead of acting alone.
Yu Qingxian looked at the photos, but didn't see Xiao Ji, Shi Xingyu, or Ye.
They were all zombies she didn't recognize.
And these zombies looked deformed and monstrous, clearly not intelligent zombies.
Indeed, Yu Qingxian only knew of five intelligent zombies.
Besides Xiao Ji, who seemed to get along fine with humans, Mima was probably safe deep in the mountains.
Shi Xingyu, Ye, and Little Green Sister didn't appear in these alerts either.
However, encountering a human like Ye would probably mean there was no way to leave alive.
As for Little Green Sister, it's unknown whether she could defeat a human.
As for Shi Xingyu, Yu Qingxian felt that she had instilled a lot of human thought in him, so there shouldn't be any problems.
The next part was calling for all psychic ability users to go to the Capital Base.
This puzzled Yu Qingxian.
Because she was very interested in psychic ability users.
This kind of ability, in any apocalyptic zombie fiction, was always formidable.
Like the protagonist, or the villain's big BOSS.
But now that the authorities were calling for psychic ability users, would anyone really go?
However, since the authorities were calling, it meant they definitely had a major operation underway.
After skipping that message, there were several others.
And the latest one was from five days ago.
It called for those who had been injured by zombies and turned into ability users to go to the Capital Base.
When Yu Qingxian saw this message, she roughly understood what the authorities wanted to do.
After all, being infected by the zombie virus but becoming an ability user instead of a zombie was enough to suggest these people's bodies had antibodies.
If a vaccine could be found, it would naturally be a great thing for humanity.
