[MTL, BL] The Little Beauty was Forced to Raise a Cub for The Corpse King

1

Summer is hot.

The high temperature is baking the earth, and the air is full of steaming heat. The surface of the earth is nearly 50 or 60 degrees Celsius, and people can feel the pain caused by the scorching heat just by stepping on it.

A group of six or seven people wore heavy jackets that were completely inconsistent with the hot summer, and wrapped their heads and noses with cloth with only one pair of eyes outside, walking quietly among a row of unfinished buildings.

At the corner, Xia Chenshu, who was nearly two meters tall, stuck his head out and took a look. He was relieved to confirm that there was no one on the road outside except abandoned vehicles.

He turned around and was about to go back to report that he was safe, when a figure suddenly jumped out from behind a truck beside him and pounced on him.

Xia Chenshu reacted very quickly and dodged immediately. However, it was too late, and the figure had already pounced on him.

He was thrown hard against the wall, and severe pain came from his back. Xia Chenshu's heart rose to his throat, and the fear of death rushed towards him and suffocated him.

"Squat down." A calm, gentle and pleasant voice sounded, and at the same time, a sound of breaking wind followed.

Xia Chenshu only had time to slide down the wall, and the wall where his neck was originally was completely cracked open by an axe.

The wall trembled, cement crumbs flew, and a muffled sound spread.

Xia Chenshu looked up in horror. Ji Yan calmly pulled the ax out of the wall. With his movement, a human head rolled down into Xia Chenshu's arms.

Xia Chen could look around and saw the highly putrid face covered in green liquid. He trembled with fright and quickly took the head out of his arms.

The head rolled along the baked ground to the opposite corner, and the liquid was spread all over the floor. The extremely hot ground made a sizzling sound, and the air was filled with a fishy smell after being baked at high temperature.

"Let's go." Ji Yan looked around coldly and said.

He just made a noise, and the place will soon be surrounded by zombies.

"Sorry..." Xia Chenshu ignored the stinky liquid on his clothes and quickly got up from the ground to follow.

Quickly walking through the alleyway, the two of them entered the building next to them one after another. The ground floor had not yet been completed and the building materials were piled with sand. The other five or six people in the building were on full alert.

Everyone looked at them when they came in.

Everyone frowned when they saw Xia Chenshu with the foul-smelling liquid on his body. One of them, Sun Haifeng, who was injured, took two steps back to distance himself.

Xia Chenshu glanced at him and ignored him. With lingering fear, he took off his coat and threw it away quickly.

"What's going on?" someone asked.

"I almost got caught..." Xia Chenshu found a new jacket from his backpack and looked at Ji Yanqing with complicated eyes. Ji Yanqing saved him again.

Temporarily safe, Ji Yanqing placed the ax he never left behind against the wall, took off the black goggles he had been wearing on his face and wiped them.

They had been attacked two days ago and his goggles had been damaged during that time.

Xia Chenshu looked up along the goggles in Ji Yanqing's hand. The moment he saw clearly Ji Yanqing's face that was usually hidden under the cloth and goggles, his breathing could not help but become stagnant.

With fluffy, soft and naturally curly short taupe hair, skin that was still fair under the scorching sun, long and slightly curled eyelashes, and clear black and white eyes, Ji Yanqing had an extremely beautiful face.

However, with such a face, Ji Yanqing's character has nothing to do with being cute and weak. He is extremely strong and can even knock over a zombie with one axe.

These, coupled with his neat black off-road high-top military shoes, outdoor tactical jacket, and travel bag, all of them in the team obediently called him captain, even if they were all older than him.

Ji Yanqing himself seemed to know that his face would seriously affect his prestige in the team, so he wore goggles most of the time and tried to look serious with a cold face.

After putting on his goggles, Ji Yanqing took a cloth from the side and wrapped it around his head. Under such extremely high temperatures, the water in the human body can be evaporated in just a few hours if the sun shines directly on the skin.

"What to do next?" someone asked.

"By the way, come and see." One of the people in the crowd thought of something and called to everyone to walk behind him.

They are now on the ground floor of a row of unfinished buildings. The top of the building is wrapped in green mesh, and the bottom is piled with various building materials. There is a wall around the building, which is relatively safe. This is why they chose this resting spot. s reason.

Ji Yan glanced lightly, then took the lead and picked up the ax to follow.

The man led a group of people deeper into the building, and soon they reached the ground floor of the building at the back.

There are no building materials stacked here. The bottom of the building is very empty. In the center of the open space are the ashes of the burned out bonfire, and around the bonfire are various food bags.

Everyone's spirits were lifted.

"They rested here before."

"I checked and the traces are very new. They can only last for five days, which means that if we are fast enough, we can catch up with them within three days." "

Then what are we waiting for? Let's set off quickly!" The injured Sun Haifeng was extremely excited.

Ji Yan glanced at him lightly and said nothing.

Ji Yan remained silent, and the others naturally remained silent.

Sun Haifeng was a little anxious. He stared at Ji Yanqing closely and opened his mouth several times to say something.

Ji Yanqing ignored it and inspected the surrounding area with an axe.

Just when Sun Haifeng was about to lose his patience, a small rustling sound suddenly came from the extreme silence. The moment the sound rang out, everyone in the clearing became nervous.

Everyone's pupils shrank suddenly, their hearts pounded faster, goosebumps appeared on their arms, and the weapons in their hands were clenched and raised.

Everyone listened with bated breath.

The sound came from the pile of debris in the right corner. As they looked, there was movement again.

Looking at each other, everyone's faces turned pale.

Ji Yanqing stepped forward. He approached quietly and turned his head slightly to look under the debris. He frowned when he saw clearly what was underneath.

"Team Ji?" Holding the knife, Xia Chenshu lowered his voice and asked at an almost inaudible volume.

Ji Yanqing didn't say anything, and just used the ax in his hand to push away the debris against the wall, revealing what was underneath.

They were two children, both about three years old, with short arms and legs. They were not as soft, fat and cute as they should be at this age. Instead, they were skinny and dirty, like two little milk cats that were dying of hunger and could die at any time.

The two children curled up into a small ball, not sure if they were asleep or fainted from hunger.

Seeing this scene, everyone had mixed emotions.

The virus broke out, turning countless people into zombies, and everyone fled desperately. They had seen similar situations countless times.

"He is so crazy that he would even sacrifice his own children to survive for himself..." Sun Haifeng was indignant.

"Well..." Hearing the sound, one of the older children moaned like a cat. He seemed to be even more frightened in his sleep, and he tried to shrink himself into a small ball.

Ji Yan was in a daze. For a moment, he seemed to see a familiar little face. His heart seemed to be clenched tightly by something, and the severe pain made him unable to breathe.

Ji Yan put down the ax lightly, approached the pile of debris and reached out to hug the two children.

"Season team?"

"Take it away." Ji Yan said lightly.

Everyone was stunned.

"Take away? Are you crazy?" Sun Haifeng changed his previous tone of unsympathetic voice and suddenly raised his voice, with a look of disbelief on his face.

It is difficult for them to survive in this environment. Not to mention the zombies wandering around, the little food they have is not even enough for themselves. Now bringing these two burdens with them is asking for death.

Ji Yanqing carefully took the two children out of the corner and placed them on the ground.

After being taken out, the two children looked even thinner. Their tiny arms were so hungry that they were just skin and bones, as if they could break with the slightest force.

"Even if you don't think about yourself, think about us. We-" Sun Haifeng was anxious.

"You should think about us." Xia Chenshu quickly calmed down after being surprised. He said coolly, "Don't save just anyone."

Sun Haifeng was rescued by Ji Yanqing two days ago.

To be more precise, without exception, all members of their team were saved by Ji Yanqing along the way.

"You -" Sun Haifeng heard that Xia Chenshu was alluding to him, and his face quickly turned pale, and he felt weak, "I mean, why bother? He is always soft-hearted, and sooner or later he will suffer a big loss."

Seeing that Ji Yanqing insisted on this, the others rubbed the bridge of their noses with a headache, but didn't say anything.

If Ji Yanqing could turn a blind eye, they would all be dead long ago. At least they are not qualified to lecture Ji Yanqing on this matter.

"Set up camp on the spot." Ji Yan said lightly.

Everyone looked at each other, turned and walked away, alerting the surroundings.

Ji Yan put down his backpack gently and was about to find some food in it when the older of the two children he took out slowly opened his eyes.

There was confusion in his dark eyes at first, and then fear and fear soon followed. The child was startled when he found a stranger in front of him, and his little body immediately shrank back for fear of being beaten.

Ji Yanqing didn't notice it before, but now that the child sat up, he saw that his neck and arms were covered in scars.

Ji Yan lowered his eyes, took out a pack of biscuits from his backpack and handed it over.

The little baby looked at Ji Yanqing and then at the cookie Ji Yanqing handed over. Her Adam's apple slid uncontrollably, but she didn't take it.

He looked away in fear, then hugged his little self and huddled up. Apparently someone had used this method to find an excuse and beat him severely before, so that he would learn a lesson.

Ji Yanqing took back the food and asked, "Where are your parents?"

When asked, as if thinking of something, the little baby immediately looked up and found that there were only a few unknown people left in the entire open space, and he burst into tears.

He seemed to know he was being thrown away.

His eyes were full of fear, and his little body was shaking uncontrollably. Tears kept falling from his eyes, but he cried quietly. Although he was only three years old, he was already sensible.
