Chapter 7, Living People

Ah... Lingling, there is someone!" A Xue screamed, startled and taking a step back, her feminine instinct causing her to instinctively protect the three exposed points of her body.

"How can you still have the mood to sing? That old man Ma only gave us fifteen minutes. If we delay, who knows how much he will take advantage of us!" A girl around twenty years old muttered as she climbed into the small pool. Eagerly, she took off her already scant clothing. Looking at the murky water, she didn't mind and squatted down to wash her hair first. Her hair was almost covered with some yellowish, sticky substance. Up close, a strong fishy smell was quite nauseating, forming a stark contrast with her fair and delicate skin. Eagerly, she took off her already scant clothing.

Lingling stood upright in the pool and followed Axue's gaze. She saw a young man wearing a white baseball cap, a black polo shirt, and khaki casual pants, sitting on a raised mound of earth not far from them. However, the man was wearing a pair of brown sunglasses, making it impossible to discern whether his gaze was directed at their beautiful bodies. Strangely, the large red dog beside him seemed to have a somewhat lecherous look in its eyes.

Forget it, Lingling, let's not talk about this anymore. Who said that I had to live well, even if it meant living like a beast, as we agreed back then?

The young man stood outside the car, tilting his head as he downed half a bottle of mineral water. He glanced helplessly at the large dog inside the car, enjoying itself. Although this dog had been raised by him since childhood, he truly could not understand how this hellhound could be so materialistic. Even he, as its owner, was not like this. Yet, even in the face of the apocalypse, it refused to give up even a second of enjoyment.

A Xue, you should stop singing; be careful not to attract those things. Hurry up, it's my turn to wash now

She had long forgotten when it all began, but the innocent her had already learned to skillfully take in the belongings of those older men, even willingly swallowing the streams of protein that once made her retch uncontrollably. A-Xue shook her wet hair, forcing herself not to think about it. When she looked up, she was surprised to see a young man leisurely sitting on a mound ahead, smiling at her.

Where is it? Where is it?

Whose heart is it, left in solitude, I love him so much

"Lingling, wouldn't it be wonderful if we could take a bath every week in the future?" The girl named Axue wrung out the droplets from her hair, picked up the dirty underwear from the ground, and leaned against the edge of the sink to wash it carefully.

Water is now a matter of life and death, and the supply from www.hetushu.com is dwindling. Haven't you noticed that even the women around Boss Hu can only use damp cloths to wipe themselves? Just like that vixen named Cao Mei beside him, her obsession with cleanliness is even more severe than yours used to be. But when I saw her this morning, she still had last week's stains in her hair!" Lingling raised her head to look at the numb-faced Axue and sighed helplessly, saying, "Alas, if this continues, whether we can even drink water will become a problem, yet here we are taking baths!"

"Hmm, that's good!" The girl standing in the pool turned to glance at her impatient companion beside her, smiled gently, squeezed the water droplets from her long hair, and jumped down from the more than half-meter high pool, her delicate breasts, resembling two porcelain bowls, gently quivered. Under the reflection of the water droplets, the two points on her chest shimmered with a proud light pink. The girl playfully patted her companion's bottom, urging the eager companion to hurry up.

"Michael, can you be quiet for a moment? If you keep messing with those undead, I will have no choice but to break your dog paws!"

Indeed! Given their current state, which of the surviving men here hasn't seen or touched their own body? Even dressing is merely a matter of habit; otherwise, being bare-bottomed seems inconsequential. So what is there left to conceal? ... However, when it comes to striking a captivating pose like Lingling's that could make one lose their composure, she ...! ... still finds it somewhat difficult to let go

"Qie ~ A Xue, could you please not overreact? It's just a person, not one of those monsters!" Lingling stood in the pool, gracefully twisting her slender waist, and deliberately squeezed her ample bosom towards the man, even licking her lips with a face full of seduction

A young man stood in front of the car, holding several tools in his hands, glaring fiercely at the large red dog that was brutally slaughtering the living dead in front of him. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and lowered the engine hood. The blue Mercedes-Benz B200 in front of him was in good condition; there were no traces of blood or corpses in the driver's cabin, and the keys were still generously left in the ignition. It was likely that the previous owner had jumped out and fled when they sensed something was wrong, even leaving behind some emergency supplies in the trunk that they hadn't had time to take. However, the car's battery was dead, and he needed to remove the battery from the Cherokee to charge it. The four tires also needed to be inflated.

Currently, the water in nature, apart from the freshly fallen rainwater, is highly corrosive in rivers, lakes, and seas. It is not only undrinkable but also unsuitable for basic washing. Just think about how one appears before taking a shower; it is likely that even a miner would be in a much better condition than oneself

A melodious and enchanting song emerged joyfully from the lips of a beautiful woman with a graceful figure. As she sang, she stood in a pool, meticulously washing every possible corner of her body. Due to a lack of water, she had not bathed for over six months. A few days ago, the heavens finally showed some mercy, bringing a localized heavy rain to this wretched area. The rain bizarrely lasted a full half day before it ceased, resulting in the rare sight of the half-filled pool of rainwater before her. She had not bathed for over six months.

A Xue smiled faintly, gazing at her old classmate. She recalled how they used to be a pair of schoolgirls pursued by many, yet now they were constantly troubled by the question of how to survive. The thought of those filthy objects entering and exiting her mouth and body every day made A Xue sigh helplessly. Although she felt deep down that all men were exceedingly dirty, it was precisely they who enabled her to survive.

... ...

I... I was just startled!" A Xue said somewhat awkwardly as she looked at Ling Ling, who was deliberately flaunting herself.

This area is located on the outskirts of the city, officially referred to as the urban-rural fringe. However, in the eyes of city dwellers, it is a quintessential suburb, a rural area. As far as the eye can see, 40% of the land is farmland. Even on what would normally be a busy day, it is difficult to see many vehicles passing by in just one hour. Therefore, fewer cars mean fewer people, and fewer people signify fewer living corpses. The girl taking a shower is well aware of this.

Jumping into the car, pressing down on the accelerator, the B200 slowly starts up, the silent town behind gradually recedes, and once again, a person and a dog embark on a vast and unknown journey.

Hooray! We finally switched to a Mercedes! The big red dog cheered, spitting out a severed limb of a living corpse from its mouth, and happily jumped onto the already running Mercedes. With a human-like demeanor, it began to press the buttons on the dashboard vigorously. In the next moment, the car's air conditioning blew out a refreshing cool breeze mixed with some dust. The big dog contentedly squinted its eyes, its two pointy ears shaking with delight.

"Oh dear, can you wait for me to finish washing my hair before you wash your underwear? It's all gotten in my eyes!" Lingling, who was in the pool, moved aside but did not seem too offended. She simply lowered her head and said, "You might as well stop dreaming. If it weren't for the two of us making that old man comfortable, Old Ma would have long hidden away this water. Would it even be our turn?"

Sigh~ I know, it's just a thought! A-Xue helplessly sighed, her hands weakly rubbing the underwear in the pool that had turned yellow to almost black. Just a year ago, she was a pure girl who had to take a shower at least twice a day and had a bit of a cleanliness obsession. But time has passed, and now she can swallow the essence shot from any man without even blinking.
