Chapter 72

Everyone outside the cabin was screaming excitedly in their hearts. Xiao Li brought Gu Bai into the cabin. He just wanted to bandage Gu Bai's wounds and calm down the fire in his heart.

At this moment, even if he wanted to do something heavy, the cruel reality wouldn't allow it. The sky outside was getting darker and darker.

Even though it was only five o 'clock in the afternoon, it was so dark outside that the moon was almost invisible. The air was filled with a strong sense of danger. The real doomsday was about to break out. At this time, they couldn't stay outside for too long.

After a short period of excitement, everyone calmed down and began to face the reality seriously. They hurried back.

Due to the sudden outbreak of the zombie tide in the amusement park, the entire North District of B City had begun to become chaotic. The government couldn't cover up the situation anymore. The news began to report, asking people to stay at home and not go out, waiting for rescue.

However, at this moment, even if the government didn't ask, no one dared to go out because of the dark and chaotic situation outside. Especially when Shen Guohui let people announce the specific information of the doomsday on the Internet, everyone panicked.

Shen Guohui, who had been waiting for the news in the Shen family, was very anxious when he saw the situation outside. He regretted that he let the two children go out. As long as he thought that something happened to the two children, he felt panic.

"Master, First Young Master and Mr. Xiao will definitely bring them back. Little Young Master will definitely be fine …"

The nanny, Wang Ma, comforted him. She was an old servant of the Shen family. She knew Shen Guohui very well. Master loved Miss very much. After Miss passed away, Young Master was Master's lifeblood.

But comforting him was useless. No one could be at ease if they didn't see them come back safely. Especially when Wu Donghan didn't call him back. The situation over there was unknown, which made him even more anxious.

Until he heard the sound of the helicopter flying back, Shen Guohui's face became happy. He hurriedly ran out. When he saw Shen Muze and others were tied up by Xiao Li, his face changed.

"Xiao Li, what are you doing …"

Although he didn't know what happened, Xiao Li tied up all the Shen family. The situation was obviously not right. He faintly had an ominous premonition in his heart.

Sure enough, Ah Hu suddenly became agitated and roared, "What are you doing? Your son turned our sister-in-law into a zombie. What do you think our boss wants to do?!"

"What? Little Yu, he …"

Shen Guohui's expression changed slightly. When he saw that Shen Muze's appearance was clearly different from a normal person's and that his neck was covered in black blood, his heart tightened for some reason. He even forgot that Shen Muze was still tied up.

"Tie up all the remaining members of the Shen family, then pack up and prepare. After tomorrow's lunar eclipse, we will depart to the northwest!"

Xiao Li did not intend to explain to him. He directly ordered his men to capture all the remaining members of the Shen family. Although they had cooperated previously, in terms of strength, the Shen family was just a vassal of the Xiao family.

Food and resources were important in the apocalypse, but strength was the foundation of survival.

These zombies' bodies would decay over time. Although Gu Bai's current situation was different from ordinary zombies, no one could be sure. If Gu Bai's body was already rotten after finding a way to recover, then even if there was a way, it might not be able to recover.

Shen Guohui did not know what the situation was, but if the Shen family wanted to go against Xiao Li, whether it was before or after the apocalypse, they would not be able to do so. They could only restrain themselves.

He knew Xiao Li's character very well. In the past few months, he had seen the relationship between Xiao Li and Gu Bai. He did not doubt that Xiao Li could completely abandon the support of the Shen family to deal with them.

But at this moment, he was more concerned about Gu Bai. It was an inexplicable concern.

"Xiao Ze, what exactly happened …" The two children went out together. Only Xiao Ze knew the situation best.

Facing Shen Guohui's question, Shen Muze only felt that his throat was dry. He opened his mouth but could not make a sound. His eyes were filled with guilt.

Of course, he knew his own son best. Shen Guohui could almost see the guilt in his son's eyes. He had a very bad feeling.

He looked at his adopted son. Wu Donghan shook his head at him. He was not at the scene and did not know what happened. He only knew from the bodyguards that Gu Bai became a zombie to save Shen Muze.

The two bodyguards did not seem to be lying, but there was one thing he could not figure out.

That was what Xiao Li said before. They were right. Xiao Ze knew that the apocalypse was coming. Why did he have to take Su Yu to the crowded amusement park?

Perhaps the excuse of 'wanting to keep some of the best memories before the apocalypse' could be used by others. But he and his dad knew that Xiao Ze was reborn. He knew more about the apocalypse than anyone else.

In other words, it was impossible for him not to know that zombies would break out in the amusement park in advance. Knowing the situation, he still took Su Yu there …

Wu Donghan did not dare to think further. He did not dare to admit that the person who would have such thoughts was Shen Muze.

He knew that Shen Muze was usually simple-minded and capricious. In the eyes of others, he was a young master. But in his heart, Xiao Ze was just a little capricious …

Facing Shen Guohui's gaze, Shen Muze did not dare to speak. The guilt and fear in his heart almost made him collapse. He did not know how to face Shen Guohui and did not know how to explain.

He did not say anything, and Wu Donghan did not say anything. Shen Guohui could not get anything out of him and could only give up. But as soon as he thought of seeing Gu Bai turn into a zombie, his heart ached …

The night before the apocalypse was destined to not be peaceful. The thick darkness seemed to want to swallow people. As time passed, the moon in the sky began to turn red, and there was a scene like a solar eclipse.

Finally, when the sun rose the next morning, the black sky turned into a blood red color.

Everyone only felt that they seemed to hear a strange monster's howl in their ears. The zombies that were secretly imprisoned all over the world suddenly rioted and rushed out.

Fortunately, the apocalypse did not come suddenly. There were many signs in advance. Plus, the news that the Shen family spread on the Internet the night before, most people were prepared to stay at home. For a time, there were many people who survived.

When everyone was hiding in the house in fear, Xiao Li left after the lunar eclipse and took people to the northwest.

Originally, he planned to directly occupy a place to build a safe base, but now that Gu Bai had turned into a zombie, he had to change his plan.

He had many subordinates, and it was impossible to bring all of them to the northwest, especially many of them who had children. Therefore, he only took the single men who were willing to go with him.

Shen Guohui, Shen Muze, and Wu Donghan were going with him.

In the end, there were not many people who set off with Xiao Li, only 30, but all of them were iron-blooded elite men.

After packing up, everyone started the car. These cars were specially modified before the apocalypse. Plus, it was still early, so the zombies outside were not at their worst. The departure was very smooth.

To be honest, the thing that everyone was most afraid of was not the zombies outside, but Gu Bai, who was beside Xiao Li.

Everyone knew that zombies ate people. Even if Gu Bai did not seem to attack people, if he suddenly went berserk, everyone would be finished.

However, Gu Bai was obviously not as ferocious as everyone thought. Other than his appearance, his behavior was not like a zombie at all. He was extremely docile.

Of course, this was on the premise that he stayed by Xiao Li's side. Once he left Xiao Li's side, he would return to his zombie nature and viciously stretch out his claws to kill people and zombies around him.

The most important thing was that everyone found that he did not eat human flesh. He was determined not to eat. Even if he looked very hungry and drooled, he was determined not to eat. He was very determined and had moral integrity.

Besides Xiao Li, Gu Bai's attitude towards Shen Guohui and Shen Muze was very special. He was very docile in front of Shen Guohui and especially liked to listen to Shen Guohui talk to him, like a child talking to an elder.

His attitude towards Shen Muze was not so easy-going. Sometimes, he would grimace and seemed to like to scare and tease Shen Muze. However, in the end, he would not hurt anyone.

Everyone was secretly surprised. Shen Guohui also found it hard to understand. However, Shen Muze's eyes could not help but turn red every time he saw that Gu Bai did not hurt him in the end.

At this moment, he would rather Gu Bai eat and kill him immediately. He did not want to see Gu Bai's expression of not being able to bear to kill him.

This made him feel very guilty and conflicted. He could not help but reflect on why Su Yu did this. Their relationship was obviously very bad. Su Yu should hate him as much as he did. They should be enemies. It should not be like this.

He could not figure it out no matter how he thought about it. He did not know when the resentment in his heart disappeared. Instead, he felt more and more guilty.

Moreover, looking at Shen Guohui and Gu Bai's close relationship, he felt even more guilty. He had a feeling that he could not face himself. Facing Shen Guohui's torment was more painful than directly killing him. He was about to collapse.

Because they set off early, there was no sea of zombies on the road at the beginning of the apocalypse. The highway was basically smooth.

Before the world was completely chaotic, everyone rushed day and night. Finally, after a week, they passed through the zombies on the road and arrived at the border of the Northwest Desert.

When everyone saw the legendary Northwest Desert, they were all stunned.

They saw that the entire sky of the Northwest Desert was red as if it was dyed with blood. The sand on the ground had turned black. The air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

After taking a closer look, everyone realized that the sand was not originally black. Instead, it was dyed with a black liquid.

The desert was no longer a desert. It was like a terrifying swamp of purgatory. Everyone could vaguely hear the whining of something unknown.

"Damn, what the hell is going on?"

Following Xiao Li were some rough men. When they saw this strange and terrifying scene, they could not help but curse.

In fact, Shen Muze, who had experienced the apocalypse, was not any better than everyone else. He did know that the Northwest Desert was the source of the apocalypse. However, he did not expect the situation to be like this.

Listening to the strange cries of animals in the desert from time to time, everyone only felt a chill down their spines.
