The Diary of a Female Zombie’s Hiking Adventure

Chapter 13

Yu Qingxian had originally planned to take a detour.

After all, within a radius of one hundred kilometers, there were signs of human activity everywhere.

Unlike the places she had passed through before, where there weren't many people.

Humans truly were indomitable.

Even in a place overrun by zombies, they could still carve out a place to live.

They were really resilient.

But while humans were strong, Yu Qingxian couldn't muster the same strength.

There were always convoys passing by outside, making it impossible for Yu Qingxian to leave.

As for those mindless zombies, they strutted along the main road.

Whenever a vehicle passed by, they would pounce, only to be sent flying or flattened into zombie pancakes.

Because the zombies in this area had been mostly cleared out by the official military and some superhuman teams over the past month.

Yu Qingxian could only retreat.

But she never expected that by doing so, she would witness a scene of zombies devouring people.

---

Yu Qingxian retreated more than ten kilometers.

And the official safe zone was about twenty kilometers away.

For a car, it was only a journey of about fifteen minutes.

But even in those fifteen minutes, they might never make it.

Previously, Yu Qingxian had been wandering around.

She could see people and corpses.

But she had never witnessed zombies eating people with her own eyes.

So when she saw a small sedan surrounded by a dozen zombies, with a mother and daughter inside while a man wielded a steel pipe, continuously striking the zombies.

The car seemed to have broken down or run out of gas.

In any case, a family of three was surrounded by these zombies.

The man was just an ordinary person, wearing glasses, probably used to working in an office.

His blows with the steel pipe had no effect on the zombies whatsoever.

For ordinary people, getting hold of a gun was extremely difficult.

Unless they reached a base and formed a task force, they might be able to borrow a gun from the authorities.

Yu Qingxian watched as the man was bitten on the arm and thigh by the zombies, but he still held onto the car door tightly, not letting the woman and child inside the car get out.

Until the man was overwhelmed by the zombies, lost his breath, and his flesh lost its warmth, only then did the zombies move away from him.

Then they started climbing onto the car.

These zombies were quite strong.

The car window cracked after just a few strikes.

After all, it wasn't bulletproof glass, so it was easy to break.

If the car window really broke, then the mother and daughter inside the car would definitely perish in the mouths of the zombies.

Yu Qingxian hesitated for a moment, then took out a piece of paper from her bag and covered the somewhat horrifying gash on her face before rushing over.

She pushed away two zombies.

Then she stood in front of the car and shouted at the zombies, "Get lost!"

Those zombies seemed to be genuinely frightened by Yu Qingxian's shout, actually stopping their attack.

Yu Qingxian was stunned.

Although this puzzled her, she still shouted again, telling them to scram.

The zombies begrudgingly backed off.

The mother and daughter in the car had thought they were doomed for sure.

Who would have known that a young girl would rush out and stand in front of them?

Just that one shout made them shiver all over with fear.

Though very scared, that young girl did save them.

And when Yu Qingxian turned to look at the two people in the car, even though her face was covered with a piece of paper.

But her pale face and slightly dilated pupils made the mother and daughter shrink back.

This is also a zombie!!!

Yu Qingxian was puzzled to see them retreating like this.

Although she wasn't particularly pretty, she didn't think she was so frightening with her mouth covered.

Though admittedly, her skin did look a bit frightening.

Yu Qingxian spoke up, "Come down, the car broke down, and I can't stay with you inside waiting."

But as soon as Yu Qingxian finished speaking, the mother and daughter hugged each other in even greater terror.

This puzzled Yu Qingxian.

She spoke human language, why couldn't they understand?

Although perplexed, Yu Qingxian didn't have time to explain and just reached out to pull the car door.

The clanging sound drew zombies closer.

Yu Qingxian cursed at them again, and like eunuchs in a Qing Dynasty drama, they turned away in shame.

She tugged a few times and finally managed to open the door.

But the mother and daughter inside only huddled closer to the side.

Yu Qingxian was speechless, so she stopped trying and just stood aside.

When other zombies approached, she pointed at them and cursed.

It was only then that the eight-year-old girl realized they had been saved by a zombie.

The girl, no longer afraid, immediately crawled out from her mother's embrace and peeked outside the car.

"Dad! Daddy!" The girl lay on the side of the car, looking at the unrecognizable pile of flesh, tears welling up.

The woman also reacted and quickly got out of the car.

She looked at the body on the ground, her eyes turning red in an instant.

Yu Qingxian stood with her back to the mother and daughter.

She thought they were just too nervous to understand her words clearly.

But Yu Qingxian hadn't expected the zombies to show her such face.

She felt a bit embarrassed after scolding them just now.

Fortunately, the mother and daughter, though scared and grieving, understood the situation.

"May we bury my husband? Then we'll go with you," the woman asked.

She also realized at this point that the zombie wasn't going to harm them.

Yu Qingxian didn't look at their expressions, but she understood the pain of losing loved ones.

But no matter how painful, she had survived.

Of course, she wasn't exactly alive now.

But she still hoped those who wanted to live would live well.

So, Yu Qingxian agreed to it.

She even helped the mother and daughter dig a hole together and buried the man's remains.

Yu Qingxian felt that despite encountering caravans all along, it had been almost two hours, and no caravans had passed by.

Was she really going to escort this mother and daughter to the safe zone?

But they weren't a problem; they were just scared and didn't resist or try to harm her.

Yu Qingxian dug the hole with her head down, and the eight-year-old girl beside her was puzzled.

Why would a zombie save their lives?

And why was a zombie so adept at digging holes?

Her movements weren't stiff like those of other zombies; instead, they were almost human.

But the little girl couldn't understand a word she said.

"Is sister a zombie?" The little girl asked boldly.

The woman beside her looked at Yu Qingxian when her daughter asked this question.

Indeed, she was a zombie. It was evident from her skin color and eyes that she was a zombie.

But zombies only eat people; they've never been known to save them.

Yu Qingxian didn't answer the little girl.

Instead, she pointed to the man's body in the pit, prompting the mother and daughter to say something.

She was about to start burying the body herself.

And it was already afternoon.

If they delayed any longer, more zombies would come.

Whether she could stop those zombies then was uncertain.

The little girl seemed to understand Yu Qingxian's actions and immediately pulled her mother to pay respects to her father.

The woman's complexion wasn't great.

But she couldn't die with her husband.

Because their daughter was still young.

Even if she loved her husband dearly, wishing to die with him.

They still had another daughter, as parents, they couldn't be so selfish.

After all, she was only eight years old, not eighteen.
