I am in the last days, I can connect to reality

Qin Zhong and Xiao Yingyong dived into the water, leaving only their eyes exposed. They paddled gently and swam towards the dark cave entrance. When they got closer, they were delighted to find that it was indeed the entrance to the employee passage.

Seeing the hope of survival, the two men were suddenly filled with strength. Without saying a word, they immediately swam inside, turned a straight turn, and when they saw everything clearly in front of them, they suddenly felt a chill in their hearts.

In the passage that was less than three meters wide, countless zombies were floating, densely packed and blocking the way!

Before the two of them could react, they heard a huge sound of water suddenly coming from the entrance of the passage behind them. Judging from the sound, it was either a crocodile or a shark swimming into the passage behind them.

This time, the saying is really true: there is a wolf in front and a tiger behind. I am really dead now!

Hearing the sound of water splashing in the passage behind him getting closer and closer, Qin Zhong hurriedly turned his head and saw two crocodiles swimming into the employee passage and heading straight towards Qin Zhong and Xiao Yingyong.

Qin Zhong quickly pressed Xiao Yingyong's head, and the two of them dived into the water together, hoping to avoid the two crocodiles.

It was pitch black underwater, and the headlamp could only illuminate a distance of less than two meters. As soon as he dived into the water, Qin Zhong saw a black shadow swimming quickly towards him. It turned out to be a crocodile, which then dived into the water.

The crocodile had fierce eyes and opened its mouth wide, biting towards Qin Zhong, as if it was unwilling to let go of the fat meat in its mouth.

"TMD!"

At the critical moment, Qin Chong had no time to think. He picked up the crossbow, pressed the trigger, and a steel ball shot out and hit the crocodile's open mouth directly.

Although the power of the steel balls in the water was greatly weakened, it still caused the ferocious and greedy creature great pain. The crocodile swung its tail and emerged from the water.

But before Qin Zhong could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw the other crocodile dive down again. Qin Zhong almost cursed all the crocodiles' ancestors for thirteen generations in his heart. These two ferocious guys were more hateful than zombies!

Seeing the approaching crocodile, Qin Zhong made up his mind. Just as he was about to pull the bowstring again and give the last steel ball to the crocodile to taste, he felt someone pulling his clothes.

Qin Zhong turned his head and saw Xiao Yingyong pointing to the side with a look of joy on her face. Qin Zhong followed her gaze and was also very happy.

It turned out that there was a security door on the left wall, which was wide open at the moment.

At that moment, Qin Zhong ignored the crocodile and the two of them paddled in hurriedly, then turned around to close the security door to keep the crocodile out.

When the crocodile saw the fat meat in its mouth, it tried to run away. It swung its tail and chased after it. Although crocodiles move slowly and look clumsy on land, they are extremely fast in water. In the blink of an eye, they arrived at the door.

Qin Zhong and Xiao Yingyong used their combined strength to hold up the security door, but people have no place to use their strength underwater. The crocodile chased them and just opened its big mouth to squeeze half of its head in through the crack of the door.

If the crocodile was allowed to swim in, Qin Zhong and Xiao Yingyong would surely die. In a hurry, Qin Zhong had no time to think. He released the crossbow in his hand, clenched his fist, and punched the crocodile in the right eye.

No matter what animal it is, the eyes are the softest part. The crocodile felt pain in its eyes and subconsciously turned away. The two men quickly pushed the door hard, and with a "click", the security door was locked.

At this time, the two had been holding their breath in the water for a long time and felt like their chests were about to explode. Qin Zhong pointed to the light above their heads, and the two quickly kicked the water to the surface.

"puff!"

As the water splashed, two people rushed out of the water. As soon as Qin Chong came out, he hurriedly looked around. Under the light of his headlamp, he saw that it was a large room. The water surface was calm and he did not see the zombie's head.

……

Seeing that everything was safe, they both breathed a sigh of relief. Qin Zhong touched his face and muttered to himself, "It's safe for now."

Xiao Yingyong gasped, "Brother Qin, what should we do next? Just stay here? How are we going to get out?"

Qin Zhong looked around but didn't see any way out. After a moment's thought, he said, "Let's stay here for a while. Those two damn crocodiles won't stay here forever. They'll eventually swim out. Then we can leave."

"But, but there are still a lot of zombies outside..." Thinking of the scene he saw outside before, Xiao Yingyong asked timidly again.

Qin Zhong shook his head and said, "Don't worry. Zombies can't dive like crocodiles. We can just dive under them and avoid them."

After chatting for a few sentences, they found that the water here was at least three meters deep. They floated on the water by treading water. The walls were smooth and there was no place to hold hands. If they continued like this, they would be exhausted to death.

Taking a deep breath, Qin Zhong dived back into the water to retrieve the crossbow that had sunk underwater. He vaguely saw a door on the wall on the other side of the room.

After surfacing, Qin Zhong called out to Xiao Yingyong, "Xiaoying, there's a door on the wall over there. Dive over and take a look. It might be better than staying here."

Then, the two of them dived into the water again and swam through the door. In front of them was another larger house. When they surfaced, they saw a lot of debris floating on the water, including tables, chairs, stools, and some miscellaneous items.

The two men put their arms on a large table and first checked to see if there were any zombies on the water. After taking a breath for a while, I saw that although Xiao Yingyong looked depressed, there was not much fear in his eyes.

Qin Zhong thought that this girl was strong enough. With what she had just experienced, not to mention a girl like her, even many adults would probably be left with psychological trauma.

Thinking of this, Qin Zhong comforted her, "Don't worry, Xiaoying. There is always a way out. We will definitely not die."

Xiao Yingyong looked at Qin Zhong, his eyes gleaming with light as he smiled, "Brother Qin, it's okay. I was a little scared before, but now I've come to terms with it. It's just death! Everyone dies sooner or later anyway."

Qin Zhong couldn't help but laugh. This childish girl suddenly said something so mature, which made him feel a little emotional. He casually chatted, "Xiaoying, I didn't expect you to be such a good swimmer."

Xiao Yingyong raised his head slightly and said proudly, "That's right, I used to be on the school swimming team."

Then, she suddenly sighed, "What happened at school seems like just yesterday. Everything now feels like a dream, a nightmare!"

Qin Zhong was reminded of many things by Xiao Yingyong's words, and he couldn't help feeling sad. The two of them were silent for a while, and Xiao Yingyong said in a sad tone: "Brother Qin, I miss my mother so much."

Qin Zhong sighed slightly, touching the softest part of his heart. He said soothingly, "Let's get out of here, go to Monkey Mountain to get our things, and then go to Hang Lung Building. Maybe your mother is there. By the way, what does your mother look like?"

Hearing Qin Zhong's words, Xiao Yingyong hurriedly took out a photo from his inner pocket and handed it to him: "Brother Qin, look, this is my mother. This is the photo I brought out from the snack bar."

Qin Zhong took the photo and looked at it under the light of his headlights. The photo was sealed with plastic, so it wouldn't be damaged by water. He saw the woman in the photo with a ponytail and a pretty face. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "Hey, your mother looks so young?"

Xiao Yingyong: "The photo was taken ten years ago. I was young then, but I'm not young anymore."

After a pause, she continued to murmur to herself: "It would be great if my mother could always be this young."

Qin Zhong laughed immediately. What a childish thing to say. How could there be immortality in this world?

If everyone were immortal, wouldn't the earth explode under the weight of human beings?
