Back to the Apocalypse

Chapter 58

As the sky grew dark, a cold wind blew over and Bai Jing shivered. Seeing that people had begun to cook, he could not sit still and looked into to the distance.

"Young Master Jing, come over and warm up." Tan Jiabing smiled as he spoke, still holding a pile of dry firewood in his hands. Although he was not an ability user, he still tried to help everyone out in his own way.

Bai Jing nodded and did not refuse – he did feel a little cold. It was now freezing, and he was really afraid that they would have to spend the night here. To tell the truth, he didn't like sleeping in the wind at all. Only, if they left and it snowed tonight, it would be more difficult to get the nuclei tomorrow.

"Where's Xiao Sa?" Bai Jing asked. Some discontentment was rising in his heart as he had already come out a long time ago without seeing his shadow.

"Brother Sa went to help. It was getting colder and colder, and the earlier we finish the earlier we can leave." Tan Jiabing's good-natured reply was not affected by Bai Jing's attitude at all. In any case, they all knew that Young Master Jing had a bad temper.

Bai Jing pouted and looked around, feeling a little ashamed as he suddenly discovered that besides the comatose Yu Yue, he seemed to be the only idler. Even Little Meng, the eight year old, was helping people to do things, and his little figure could be seen gathering firewood everywhere.

Bai Jing knew himself very well; he didn't enjoy rough or tiring work. People had already taken over the dirty work, and he didn't want to find trouble for himself. Looking around, it seemed like they would have to stay here for a long time, so he also didn't stay idle, finding a place where the ground was flat to begin setting up a tent and bringing out some sleeping bags and quilts. The weather was too cold, and since they were out in the open, he would try to give everyone a comfortable environment.

After a long time, when the food was already ready, and everyone began to drool over the hot food that they hadn't had in a long time, Xiao Sa and others came back. They were covered with mud, and it seemed as though their shoulders and hair were caked with layers of ice and snow. The snowfall seemed heavier now, and in the distance, the snow had already begun to pile up.

Bai Jing filled a bowl with hot soup and went directly to Xiao Sa, ignoring other people's gazes. "For you."

"Thank you!" Xiao Sa took the bowl and drank it all. He looked at Bai Jing's red cheeks and felt that this soup seemed to warm him all the way to the bottom of his heart.

"You're welcome." Bai Jing pretended to be casual, and angrily scolded himself internally. Just now, hadn't he still been angry at him?

Others were also hungry, and they went up one by one to get their share and eat. The fire had been burning the whole time, but the weather was so cold that they all felt that if they didn't hurry up to finish their meal, it would turn cold within a few minutes.

"Zhou Ji hasn't returned yet?" After eating, Xiao Sa looked up at the heavy snow falling from the sky, his brows wrinkled into a deep frown.

"Yes, Cao Lei and Qin Yi haven't returned yet either." Bai Jing replied. He was a little anxious. He would not look down on an opponent that could trap them and set up the situation they had just encountered, even managing to accurately make use of the zombies. The longer they were gone, the more dangerous it would be.
