The Diary of a Female Zombie’s Hiking Adventure
Chapter 86

Chapter 86

Yu Qingxian's brain was not shattered, but the grass around them was tinkling from the impact.

It even sounded rather pleasant.

Yu Qingxian felt itchy and reached out to touch the grass.

The blades were completely encased in ice.

However, the roots were not frozen.

So when the wind blew, the grass swayed like rippling wheat.

After a while, she withdrew her hand.

First, she needed to see if this place was habitable.

The yurt seemed somewhat damaged, likely from many years of use.

It was about one or two kilometers from the highway, with a sheep pen made of stone walls and wooden planks behind it.

Although rudimentary, it could block the wind.

Only, it was empty now.

No sheep.

No zombified or mutated sheep either.

Yu Qingxian felt a little disappointed.

She had originally planned to catch a live sheep to treat the tyrannosaur to some meat.

But now...

It'll have to graze.

She turned around, and sure enough, the tyrannosaur was grazing...

Without sheep, Yu Qingxian didn't mind.

She walked over to the yurt.

"Excuse me," she said, lifting the curtain and entering.

There was no dust inside, and it was tidy.

No traces of blood either.

Evidently, the occupants had safely evacuated.

However, they hadn't taken anything with them.

In the center was a fireplace with a chimney.

She noticed something like bedding behind the curtain.

Yet when she pushed the curtain aside to enter, she felt nothing.

She pulled on the fireplace door and found it frozen shut.

But without much effort, she opened it, causing a layer of ice to fall from the fireplace.

At this point, she inspected the iron utensils, and they were all frozen solid.

Even a bucket of milk was solid as a rock.

Yu Qingxian picked up the bucket, trying to pour the milk out, but no matter how much she shook it, it wouldn't budge.

She gave up, hung the curtain aside, and let the tyrannosaur in.

Then she brought in her luggage, dog food, water, and other supplies.

After that, she lit a fire in the fireplace.

The tyrannosaur immediately huddled close to the fire, likely feeling the warmth.

Soon after, the frozen bucket of milk she had dropped began to thaw.

The tyrannosaur caught the scent and approached.

Yu Qingxian wondered if the dog, which even ate feces, would drink the milk.

But this milk had likely been sitting for nearly a year. If the dog drank it, it would surely get sick.

Just as Yu Qingxian was about to stop the tyrannosaur, it started digging to bury the milk bucket.

Yu Qingxian was shocked. Was the milk really that foul?

She quickly took out her phone to take a picture before carrying the milk bucket outside.

As soon as the milk left the warm interior, it froze solid again.

It must be very cold outside.

Once back inside, Yu Qingxian rummaged through everything, making herself at home.

She found clean bedding and laid it on the floor.

Then she lay down on it.

She also covered the tyrannosaur with thick clothing.

She added more coal to the fireplace and opened a small gap in the curtain.

After finishing these tasks, Yu Qingxian closed her eyes and slept soundly.

In the past month, she hadn't slept at all.

Now that this place was deserted with no zombies, she should be able to sleep safely.

"I'm going to sleep for a bit. If the coal runs out or you're uncomfortable, come wake me up. I'll respond," Yu Qingxian instructed the tyrannosaur.

The tyrannosaur lay down obediently.

Yu Qingxian then closed her eyes, relieved.

After caring for and eventually bidding farewell to the tyrannosaur, perhaps she too could close her eyes in peace.

Unknowingly, Yu Qingxian's hiking trip had turned into caring for the tyrannosaur in its old age.

Indeed, all creatures are easily influenced by their surroundings.

Well, as long as she stayed alive, she would continue caring for the tyrannosaur.

When she awoke, it was dark, but the tyrannosaur was nowhere to be seen.

Alarmed, she immediately scrambled out of the bedding.

Without even putting her shoes on, she rushed outside.

After looking around, she spotted the tyrannosaur a few hundred meters away, entangled with some zombified wolves.

Yu Qingxian slapped her forehead. Of course there were wolves on this prairie.

After all, shepherds kept herding dogs not only to watch over the sheep but also to guard against wolf packs.

But Yu Qingxian hadn't expected to actually encounter wolves, let alone zombified ones.

Traveling with a live animal was indeed inconvenient.

However, those zombified wolves were no match for the tyrannosaur.

The tyrannosaur swiftly dispatched them.

But as Yu Qingxian walked further, she saw several wolf corpses.

Clearly, the tyrannosaur had been fighting for a while.

Sensing Yu Qingxian's approach, the tyrannosaur happily trotted over.

Yu Qingxian immediately checked for any injuries.

After confirming the tyrannosaur was unharmed, she felt relieved.

Ordinary zombified animals were no match for the tyrannosaur.

Fortunately, from midnight until dawn, no more zombified wolves appeared.

It was unclear whether they were afraid of the tyrannosaur or if there were simply no more in the area.

Yu Qingxian didn't care. Her only concern was for the little dog's safety.

After daybreak, Yu Qingxian took out her drone.

She attempted to connect it to her phone.

After a few tries, she succeeded.

Then she controlled the drone, filming the surrounding scenery before transmitting the footage to her phone for safekeeping.

After recording for a while, she retrieved the drone.

She carefully examined the footage on her phone, and indeed, the scenery was beautiful.

Even in the apocalypse, the landscape remained stunning.

But in the distance, Yu Qingxian spotted what appeared to be massive wind turbines.

She immediately realized what they were.

She had previously seen many videos, particularly those soothing ones featuring blue skies, white clouds, green fields, and wind turbines.

They were truly beautiful.

Yu Qingxian glanced at the heavy clouds in the sky. Although there were no white clouds or blue sky, she had a vast grassland and the tyrannosaur.

And while she wasn't blue, her green color could substitute for the sky.

That barely made up for blue skies and white clouds!

Yu Qingxian gathered her belongings and set off with the tyrannosaur towards the wind turbines.

The closer they got, the larger the wind turbines appeared.

Like a country bumpkin, Yu Qingxian gaped at the enormous turbines, her mouth agape.

She excitedly snapped photo after photo with her camera.

She even took selfies with the tyrannosaur.

And she took many pictures of the tyrannosaur alone.

The tyrannosaur was truly photogenic and always smiled.

Standing amidst the tall grass, which reached about the same height, it looked right at home.

As Yu Qingxian was happily snapping away, she suddenly noticed a snake head stuck in her boot.

The snake's head was as big as her fist.

But there was no body, only the head.

Yu Qingxian bent down and pulled the snake head out.

She momentarily understood why the zombified snake had bitten her.

And in such cold weather, shouldn't it be hibernating?

Or do zombified snakes need to hibernate?

Yu Qingxian tossed the snake head away, then realized why she had been bitten.

Earlier, she had leaned close to the tyrannosaur, so the snake must have lunged at her. But as she suddenly moved closer, it bit her boot instead.
