Chapter 46: Mining Area: Warm Breath

About twenty minutes had passed, and Kang Tianming had not seen anyone come out of the iron door.

He frowned, this mine tunnel did indeed connect to the outside, it was an abandoned tunnel, which was later simply connected to the front, becoming a convenient path in and out. He had questioned the safety of this place when he was assessing it.

There were hundreds of zombies in that zombie pit, could the three of them still get out?

“Mr. Kang, shall we go out now?”

The miner guarding the door behind him shrank his head, there were a bunch of stinky zombies lying in front of him, their eyes were all white, they were smelly and scary.

Except for the beginning of the end of the world when they had seen zombies, they had been hiding in the mine ever since, where else had they seen them, some people had never seen zombies from the beginning.

At this moment, they were all shivering, their faces pale. If it weren’t for the fear of Kang Tianming’s special ability, they would have run away long ago.

The miner looked at the mine tunnel behind him, they had been running this way, there was a mine shaft that could go up, and then they could get to the high platform outside the mine.

Kang Tianming gave him a cold glance and snorted.

He had been hiding in this small place for a long time. Today’s plan, mine tunnel zombies, explosives, spatial abilities, all linked together, Kang Tianming was arrogant and foolish.

He was used to being in control. Ever since he hid in the mine, whether it was Kang Chengdong or those useless miners, they were all used by him, listened to him, and were controlled by him.

Lin Mu and the others were variables, which also made Kang Tianming angry.

He lifted his chin, “Go, open the iron fence.”

“…Mr. Kang, there are still zombies over there.”

Kang Tianming kicked him, “What nonsense, go!”

The miner went to press the button tremblingly, the iron fence was retracted, Kang Tianming snorted, and walked towards the iron door.

The end of the mine tunnel had already collapsed, blocked by large chunks of rocks, the dust was dancing and rolling under the light of the mine lamp, and it hadn’t dissipated for a long time.

The zombies killed by Lin Mu and the others were lying all over the place, the rock walls on both sides of the mine tunnel were covered with fragments of flesh, some zombies that hadn’t died completely were still moving their hands and feet, struggling to bite Kang Tianming.

He disgustingly fanned the dust at the tip of his nose, and stepped on half of the zombie’s head on the ground.

Those seven or eight miners were still outside the iron door, not daring to follow in. Heh, there were still the few men who bullied Xiao Yu last night inside, now they were quite cowardly.

Kang Tianming turned his head and glared at them fiercely, “What, don’t want to live?”

He condensed a ball of green smoke in his hand and looked at the miner.

The miner had no choice, he plucked up his courage, followed him tremblingly, and stepped into the zombie area.

Kang Tianming stood in front of the iron door, his eyes gloomily staring at the rusty iron door, and licked his lips.

“Bang!”

Before he could do anything, the iron door was kicked open. Kang Tianming was stunned and turned his head to look. The miner hadn’t pressed the open door button.

He lifted the mine lamp to his eyes, in the dark iron door, Fu Jingmo was standing with a wicked smile on his face, his eyes were bloodthirsty, staring at him tightly.

Kang Tianming’s scream was stuck in his throat, before he could speak, a vine whip was thrown out, hooked his body, and dragged him in.

Kang Tianming lost his balance, his hands and waist were tightly bound by the vine, and he couldn’t struggle, “Damn, cut it off quickly!! Cut it off!!”

The sound of frustration and anger rose, and several miners immediately surrounded and pulled Kang Tianming. Lin Mu used all his strength to pull tightly. The vine was very strong, and for a moment, they were at a stalemate with seven or eight people on the other side.

Fu Jingmo stepped out, pulling the vine, and gave a fierce tug. Kang Tianming and a few miners fell to the side of the iron door, and screamed loudly.

Lin Mu walked out, He Ze was the last to leave, and by the way, he kicked over the bodies stacked in the iron door. The zombies that had been blocked in the tunnel immediately rushed over with a hissing sound.

The three of them came out of the iron door, kicked the miners and Kang Tianming who were pressed at the door one by one, and slammed the door shut.

The few of them walked to the iron fence and pressed the switch to lock the iron fence.

“Wait for me.”

Fu Jingmo crawled into the mine in the rock wall, and when he came out, his backpack was already bulging.

Lin Mu casually picked up the mine lamp on the ground, and the three of them turned around and left.

Crazy shouts came from the iron door, Kang Tianming’s poison ability had no effect on the zombies at all. The lock of the iron door had been kicked broken by Fu Jingmo. Not long after they walked out, the iron door was knocked open.

Kang Tianming rushed out, followed by a few miners who had been bitten and were bloody and blurry. Several people were frantically crawling on the iron fence.

“Lin Mu! Ah, damn, let me out!! Let me out.”

Kang Tianming angrily beat the iron fence, screaming heartbreakingly, the zombies behind him were already close.

Lin Mu walked forward expressionlessly, as if he hadn’t heard the sound behind him.

He Ze turned around, made a face at Kang Tianming, and casually gave him an international friendly gesture.

Humph, trash.

The horrific screams quickly disappeared in the mine tunnel, a slight wind blew from the front, diluting the intense stench a bit.

This was the first time they had truly fought side by side. Good, they had won, and they were all still alive.

——

In the deep mountain forest at night, there was only a bit of cold and clear moonlight.

On the large platform in front of the mining area, the rescued miners were sitting on the ground around the truck.

Below was the zombie pit at the entrance. The sound of the zombies was especially terrifying in the night, everyone was shivering, not daring to look that way, and not daring to walk around.

Xiao Yu was held in her mother’s arms, and she asked timidly, “Mom, will those brothers come out?”

The weak woman looked at the entrance of the mine and nodded, “Yes, they will come out.”

Those few, they were all good people. Only when they came out, these people really had a chance to be saved.

After a long time, they finally saw a little light appearing at the entrance of the mine, it was a mine lamp!

Everyone raised their heads to look at the entrance.

And saw the three of them, Lin Mu, were slowly coming out from inside, with Fu Jingmo, who was still looking lazy, leading the way.

Xiao Yu stood up and called out excitedly, “Big brother.”

Lin Mu, who was close, waved at her, “It’s okay, how many people are here.”

All the miners consciously gathered around and counted the number of people.

8 miners, two women, and Xiao Yu, a child, a total of 11 people.

When they climbed up from the mine, a few slow ones in the back were bitten by the zombified Kang Tiancheng and two other zombies and couldn’t escape.

Lin Mu nodded. With such a group of people, they would need a bus to leave together.

After discussing with Fu Jingmo, the two decided to use the bus parked on the open ground.

“You women and children go to the bus to tidy up, the rest of you go find buckets and bottles, no matter the size, as long as they can hold gasoline, fill them all up and put them on the bus.”

“Don’t go down there, just look around on the platform, He Ze, you take them.”

“Alright, let’s go.”

The miners followed He Ze, scattered to find bottles, some climbed up the truck on the side.

After giving the instructions, Lin Mu turned his head to look at Fu Jingmo who was looking at the zombie pit below from the edge of the high platform.

He was squatting with one leg bent, his hand lazily resting on his knee, the wind blowing his broken hair in front of his forehead, under the broken hair were his cold eyebrows and high nose bridge, very handsome…

Lin Mu walked up to him, and took a look down, “If we drive the bus out, the gate needs to be opened.”

“Mm, it’s okay.”

Fu Jingmo looked up at him, hooked his lip.

As long as he said it was okay, Lin Mu knew he had a way, and immediately returned a smile.

The cold moonlight fell on Lin Mu’s face, Fu Jingmo suddenly remembered the scene of him treating his wound in the mine tunnel.

His warm breath, and the faint scent of grass and trees…

TL’s Note:

Sorry for my inconsistency between ‘superpower’ and ‘special ability’ terms, but from now I decided I will use the ‘special ability’ term.

Happy reading everyone (≧▽≦)
