The World Turned into Zombies, So I Went Back to the Countryside to Farm 84p2

Chapter 84 p2: Qingshan

Qingshan’s mind flashed with the face of the young man she had met at the award ceremony, and it was replaced by An An’s smiling face.

She put down her pen and slowly signed her name.

Thirteen years later, she had not thought that the young man would stand in front of her again and stab her through the body.

Just as she was bending down to choke Jiang Zao.

A mouthful of blood spurted from her throat.

She looked down at the snow-white blade that had passed through her chest, and a strange “he he” laugh came from her throat. She gritted her teeth, grabbed the blade, and pulled it out bit by bit.

“This… this is…”

A huge force pulled Wen Zhao forward. She had to let go, and the Mountain Stream Snow, along with the hilt, was pulled out of her body.

Qingshan threw her head back and howled. The zombies in the camp that were feeding on the corpses all raised their heads and roared as they rushed over.

The sharp sound instantly made Jiang Zao’s scalp tingle. It was as if something in her head was about to explode. The intense ringing in her ears almost made her lose her ability to move. She could only curl up, endure it with all her might, and pant heavily.

Seeing Qingshan reach out for her again, Li Mi and Wen Zhao pounced on her together, grabbing her arms. Her chest was a gaping hole, but her strength was surprisingly great.

Qingshan hit Li Mi’s chin with her knee. Li Mi spat out a mouthful of blood. Taking advantage of the moment she let go in pain, she swung her fist and hit Wen Zhao’s temple. The two of them flew out together.

Yan Zhen looked at their figures falling to the ground and couldn’t help but be anxious. Especially the zombies that were wandering in the camp, after they had finished eating the remaining living people, they gradually gathered around.

She raised the dagger in her hand and stabbed it at a zombie’s head. After a lot of effort, she finally pulled the knife out of the hard skull. Another zombie pounced on her from a distance.

Kele rushed up and bit its neck.

Yan Zhen raised her head.

“She’s not an ordinary zombie! Even if her heart is hit, it’s useless. As long as her central nervous system is not destroyed and she is completely disabled! She can still stand up!”

Even so, after her heart had been severely damaged, the speed of cell regeneration was a little slower than the speed of decay.

Qingshan stumbled and knelt on the ground.

Perhaps because she was too injured, her vision was also a little blurry. Even though they had not hit her vital spot, they had also caused her a lot of trouble and made her lose a lot of blood.

Qingshan gritted her teeth. Even with the strength and speed enhanced by the virus, she was a little overwhelmed by the three of them.

She thought, it was time for her to replenish some flesh and blood.

One Lorian was far from enough.

Qingshan’s greedy gaze fell on Yan Zhen. She pounced on her on all fours. Yan Zhen quickly got up from the ground and crawled towards the dying An An, who was lying on the side.

Finally, at the last moment, she pressed the dagger against her neck.

Qingshan let out a strange cry. “No!”

Wen Zhao and Jiang Zao exchanged a look:

Now!

Jiang Zao gritted her teeth, picked up the ice axe with her left hand, got up from the ground, and pounced on her.

Wen Zhao also picked up the Mountain Stream Snow that had fallen on the ground.

Li Mi was lying on the ground. Her fingers also touched the gun that had been thrown away by Qingshan at the beginning. She used all her strength to get it back, flipped over, sat on the ground, and aimed the dark muzzle at her.

Bang—

The sound of the gunshot echoed between heaven and earth for a long time.

The morning sun rose from the horizon.

It shone on the two overlapping figures.

The scarlet in her eyes gradually faded, and they returned to their former clarity. Qingshan looked at the bullet hole in her forehead, from which blood was gushing out. Her eyes also turned red, and she roared hysterically.

“An An! No!”

Perhaps she had heard her mother’s voice. At that critical moment, when the dagger in Yan Zhen’s hand was knocked away by Qingshan, she flipped over and, just like before, she hugged her mother’s body.

A hint of a smile appeared on An An’s lips.

“Mom… we… we’re going home.”

The moment she was held by her, Qingshan’s eyes suddenly widened. She remembered the time when the disaster had broken out. She had led the surviving members of the PRRF, protecting some civilians and her daughter all the way. They had gone through many hardships and had finally reached the survivor base.

But just at the entrance of the base, on that bridge.

Countless zombies had poured out of the mountain forest and rushed towards them. Some of them were also injured, and it was impossible to tell if they were infected, so the guards were reluctant to open the gate.

The soldiers beside her fell one by one. They were all people who had been with her since the establishment of the PRRF.

Just yesterday, they had called her “Commander” and said that after they entered the base, they could finally have a good sleep.

In the blink of an eye, all of them, who had run out of bullets along the way, had fallen. Only Lorian was left.

Qingshan turned her head. Her mother was also being dragged away by the zombies in front of her, crying and shouting.

“No!”

She pounced over, but she did not notice that a zombie had leaped out of the crowd from the side and was pouncing on her. A figure rushed out from behind her, and also hugged her like this, burying her head firmly in her shoulder.

Qingshan turned her head. “An An!”

That was the first time Lorian had heard their commander cry.

Her cries were so hysterical.

The zombie had torn off a large piece of flesh from An An’s back. Her face quickly turned pale, but she still trembled as she wiped the tear stains from the corners of her eyes with her fingers.

“Mom… don’t cry…”

The sound of a helicopter circling came from above. Bang, bang, bang, bang. The sound of the machine gun was endless, and the shell casings fell one after another.

Qingshan just sat there, holding her daughter in a daze. It was Lorian who pounced over and protected them under him.

The drawbridge soon fell silent.

The gate of the base finally opened.

The surviving people were pulled up and handcuffed. A medic also ran out with a stretcher and put the people who had been bitten by zombies but were not yet dead on the stretcher.

Qingshan held her daughter’s hand tightly and refused to let go.

“An An, we’re at the base. We… we’re saved.”

Until a soldier’s cold voice came from behind, he raised his hand and gave her a salute. “Commander Zhu, this way, please.”

She was taken to a conference room and sat down.

At the head of the table was her old leader from before.

“Qingshan, you’ve done well. You voluntarily led the PRRF to stay behind and bought us precious time to evacuate. Now that the base is in a state of disrepair, we need manpower. You’ve come at the right time. After discussion, we’ve decided to let you be in charge of the entire base’s security. You’ve also seen that there are still many zombies nearby.”

She opened her mouth, about to say something.

The leader patted her shoulder and stood up.

“Go and see your daughter.”

Qingshan turned and ran.

The injured people were all placed in the medical area inside the base. Besides An An, there were also the soldiers who had followed her.

A female doctor they had rescued from a hospital on their way was also assigned to work here.

She walked over and handed her a pack of tissues. Qingshan looked up and saw the doctor’s delicate features. The name “Yan Zhen” was on her name tag. She took the tissues.

“Thank you.”

“Commander Zhu, I should be the one to thank you.”

Qingshan smiled and said nothing.

But the female doctor had a difficult expression.

“About my identity…”

Qingshan remembered that when they had gone to the hospital for a rescue, the helicopter was circling on the roof of the building, and there was only one seat left.

According to the superior’s order, the female doctor’s teacher was a professor at a national key laboratory in the southwest region. This was also the purpose of their trip to this hospital, to prioritize the evacuation of scientific researchers.

Faced with the zombies that were constantly pouring up from the corridor, the moment they broke through the door on the top floor, the older doctor had torn off the name tag with his own name on it and hung it on her chest.

“Little Wen, you go… go quickly! You young people… are the future of this world.”

“Teacher! No! Let me down! Let me down!”

Qingshan had only had time to grab her hand and pull her onto the helicopter, watching as the surging tide of zombies below swallowed everything.

From that day on, the name tag with “Yan Zhen” on it had always been on her chest and had never been taken off.

Qingshan looked at the rows of people lying on the stretchers.

Now, she was the only one who knew about this.

She squeezed the pack of tissues, thinking of their similar fates, the hardships they had gone through along the way.

“Don’t worry. I won’t say anything. Have you decided to stay at the base’s research institute?”

The female doctor nodded solemnly.

“My teacher can’t have died in vain. I will inherit her last wish.”

There was only a cold white light in the base.

She turned her head to look at the blue sky and white clouds that were projected on the ceiling to relieve people’s tension.

“Maybe… maybe this is a new beginning.”

“A new beginning…”

Qingshan murmured and held her daughter’s hand tightly.

At first, Qingshan had also had such a wish, until one day when she went to see An An, she found that while they were fighting on the front lines.

They were actually using the infected soldiers or civilians for human experiments, locking them in space capsules, tying their four limbs, inserting all kinds of tubes into their bodies, recording their process from infection to zombification, injecting them with all kinds of liquids, trying to delay the time of zombification. After they failed, they would be executed by the guards on the side.

Blood splattered on the eternally unchanging blue sky and white clouds on the ceiling.

The medical staff would put the experimental name and number on the back of their necks, as if they were putting a quarantine label on a pig, and then pull up the body bag and throw it into the incinerator.

She turned her head to look at An An in the space capsule next to her.

She knew that this could not go on. So, she launched that coup and opened the gate of the survivor base.

She had always had a lot of prestige in the army, and there were also a considerable number of people who were dissatisfied with the high-pressure policy.

Qingshan had a hundred responses to one call, plus a Lorian, and her old subordinates from before. They had washed the survivor base in blood.

When she held the gun to the old leader’s head, Qingshan only felt an incomparable joy. Whether it was patriarchy, husband’s authority, or power, there was nothing that could restrain her existence.

She was the true master of this world.

She didn’t even give him a chance to speak and pulled the trigger without any hesitation.

From that day on, she had decided to create a true, uninjured utopia that belonged to her.

Those children could all be well-protected there.

She had led her soldiers all the way into the research institute, and all who dared to resist were killed without mercy.

Yan Zhen looked at her Asura-like face and knew that she was no longer the Qingshan of the past. She knelt down, trembled, and begged her to spare her life.

Qingshan raised her gun. “Take her.”

She pulled out the tubes from An An’s body and gently picked up her already emaciated body from the hospital bed. A hint of moisture appeared in her eyes.

“An An… Mom… is taking you home.”
