The Diary of a Female Zombie’s Hiking Adventure

Chapter 112

After losing contact with the two sisters, Yu Qingxian showed no change.

If she were a normal person, she would likely have felt lonely.

But Yu Qingxian had long since become accustomed to being alone.

As the Tyrannosaurus Rex walked along, it noticed that Yu Qingxian had disappeared.

Looking back, it saw Yu Qingxian climbing up a small hill.

While it was somewhat puzzled, it watched as Yu Qingxian lay flat on the top of the hill and rolled all the way down.

Yu Qingxian even provided her own sound effects, going "Roll, roll..." as she descended.

Yu Qingxian then rolled from the top to the bottom of the hill.

However, contrary to her expectations, she did not become encased in a snowball.

The snow simply would not stick to her body.

She got up and rolled several more times until she saw the Tyrannosaurus Rex swinging its tail and batting at the snow, at which point Yu Qingxian stood up from the snowy ground.

"Alright, let's go!" Yu Qingxian brushed off the remnants of snow from her body.

The Tyrannosaurus Rex watched as Yu Qingxian walked ahead, then followed her.

With no destination in mind, Yu Qingxian and the Tyrannosaurus Rex wandered and played.

The heavy clouds that had filled the sky for days finally parted.

The blue sky reappeared before Yu Qingxian's eyes.

The plateau, which had already been beautiful without the blue sky and sunshine, now looked even more breathtaking, making Yu Qingxian reluctant to leave.

It was no wonder that many travel bloggers found the scenery stunning even without filters when they came to this place.

Indeed, towering snow-capped mountains could be seen everywhere on this plateau.

Of course, under the current circumstances, not just the northwestern plateaus but likely even the southern coasts would be blanketed in white.

Until early February, Yu Qingxian continued to roam the northwestern plateaus, and the Tyrannosaurus Rex also enjoyed that environment.

Perhaps it was due to the vast expanse, or perhaps it was the snow-capped peaks.

In any case, Yu Qingxian would climb those high mountains with the Tyrannosaurus Rex, trying to reach the clouds.

It was also in early February that Yu Qingxian received another message, indicating that she had re-entered the signal range of a base.

Previously, Yu Qingxian had added contact entries for the two sisters, Liu Si and Liu Nian.

The message was from Liu Si.

'We've arrived at the Capital Base. Surprisingly, there's a Zombie King living outside the Capital Base, but this Zombie King doesn't randomly attack humans. Indeed, there are quite a few zombies with different personalities. I'll also need to trouble you to chat with my sister later.

I'll be busy, thank you.'

It was clear that Liu Si still trusted Yu Qingxian to some extent, mainly because Yu Qingxian never asked about confidential matters.

Most of the conversations were initiated by her sister, with the other party providing brief replies.

The other party even had a dog, indicating they were likely a formidable person.

And it was her sister who had reached out to this person, as Liu Si herself might have little time to see her sister going forward, so having someone to chat with her sister would be helpful.

Although Liu Si had sent the message, the other party did not reply.

But she didn't mind, placing her phone in its designated cabinet before heading to the laboratory.

Even though things were difficult now, Liu Si knew that their current hardships were so that people like her sister would not have to suffer in the future.

Liu Si pushed open the laboratory door and, seeing the predecessors who had been working tirelessly for a year, simply said, "Please guide me going forward."

There was no need for polite niceties anymore.

Yu Qingxian looked at the message from Liu Si but did not reply.

She felt there was no need to respond.

Liu Si probably wouldn't expect a reply from her either.

Yu Qingxian put her phone back in her pocket and, seeing the Tyrannosaurus Rex running ahead, chased after it.

Actually, more than whatever Liu Si was busy with, Yu Qingxian was more curious about whether Shi Xingyu had reunited with his sister yet.

Of course, Yu Qingxian thought Gu Wanqing must be quite skilled to have been able to contact Shi Xingyu.

But...

Yu Qingxian's thoughts were filled with the things Shi Xingyu had told her.

That zombies could never view their food as equals.

That they only spoke the human language to deceive humans.

So any cooperation with humans was false, right?

Suddenly, Yu Qingxian stopped walking and squatted down.

So what was Shi Xingyu really up to?

First, he killed the Zombie King that had been indiscriminately slaughtering humans, taking its place himself.

Now, he was discussing cooperation with humans.

Actually, Yu Qingxian was torn between two possibilities.

If Shi Xingyu was discussing cooperation for his own selfish motives, then he had a high chance of success.

But if the person he was discussing cooperation with was Gu Wanqing, then he had a 99.9% chance of failure.

After all, Gu Wanqing was a potential main heroine of an apocalypse story, so Yu Qingxian thought that if Shi Xingyu had any ulterior motives, Gu Wanqing would likely know about them.

But Shi Xingyu was no fool either. Yu Qingxian had revealed so much about Gu Wanqing to him.

That was to make sure he absolutely did not provoke Gu Wanqing.

Yet he had still taken the initiative to seek cooperation with Gu Wanqing.

This left Yu Qingxian quite perplexed.

Thinking about it, she stood back up.

Oh well, what did it have to do with her?

If Shi Xingyu really did something wrong, then he would face the consequences.

She had already helped as much as she could. As for what he planned to do, Yu Qingxian had no way to directly ask and find out.

Although he was probably in a city between the Central China Base and the Capital Base.

But there were quite a few cities in between, so she didn't know which specific city this fellow was in.

Thinking about this, Yu Qingxian took out a map to look at the cities between the Central China Base and the Capital Base.

After studying the map for a while, she had a general idea of which city it was.

Indeed, that place was situated in the middle, connecting the east and west.

If there really was a vicious Zombie King stationed there, it would be difficult to pass through.

So Shi Xingyu going there to kill that Zombie King might have been for his own considerations, or for other reasons.

After all, Shi Xingyu's expression at the time looked like he had eaten something foul.

So Yu Qingxian felt there must have been some shady business between the two Zombie Kings.

Afterwards, it was Gu Wanqing who went to that place and found that the city's King had been replaced by another zombie.

Which was probably why she had the idea to contact Shi Xingyu.

Oh well, Yu Qingxian couldn't figure it out through guesswork.

Perhaps she would find out gradually over time.

The Tyrannosaurus Rex brought Yu Qingxian to a small city, and Yu Qingxian realized they had reached Q Province.

However, they were still some distance away from the lake known as the "Pearl of the Plateau."

After entering the city, Yu Qingxian found that the zombies' mobility had increased somewhat.

She took out her phone to check the temperature and discovered that it had risen by more than ten degrees compared to before.

For humans, it was still bitterly cold, but much better than before.

Yu Qingxian waved her hand in the air, but couldn't feel the temperature.

Without the sledge, the tyrannosaurus had become much more agile, and even if it went to areas swarming with zombies, it would not be harmed by them at all.

Even when Yu Qingxian leaned against the cracked shop window to look at the clothes, the tyrannosaurus acted as if it had arrived at an amusement park.

It ran here and there, jumping around, while those zombies howled and chased after it.

When the zombies couldn't catch up with it, it would even come back and wait for them.

Watching its joyful behavior, Yu Qingxian picked up her camera and took a picture of it.

Those zombies were truly being toyed with by it, running around in circles.
