Millennium: I Love Demon King

"Brother Yang, it's time to go." A young man jogged over and reminded the middle-aged man who was leaning against the wall and smoking.

Hearing this, he raised his head, but didn't show any expression on his cold face. He silently extinguished the cigarette, and then slowly followed the young man to a small task force not far behind.

These were the people he had met on his way back to the south. Not long after Bighead Yang had left Gu Cheng and the rest, they encountered the carriages that these people were in on the national highway.

At that time, they were surrounded by a group of zombies, blocking the originally small area of the road. If he didn't take care of this group of zombies, he wouldn't be able to make it in time. Bighead Yang had no choice but to get out of the car. Picking up the steel pipe, he managed to kill the zombies in front of him within a few seconds.

Seeing their savior and seeing that he was so alone, the men couldn't help but to have a bit of courage. Each of them carried machetes and other weapons as they got out of the car. The group carefully coordinated with each other to kill the zombies around the car.

Everyone encountered many zombies along the way, but this time, it was the first time they were able to escape being surrounded by so many zombies. Everyone was extremely excited, and their gazes towards Bighead Yang seemed to have an intention of recruiting him.

Bighead Yang was only concerned with harvesting the crystal core from the zombie's brain, so he didn't pay attention to the others. The smart ones noticed his movements and followed suit by smashing the head of a zombie to clean it up. Bighead Yang turned his head to look at the young man, but did not stop him. He collected the remaining crystal cores by himself.

The young man also took about five crystal cores. Seeing that Shi Yan was not ruthless, he went over boldly and handed the clean crystal cores over. "You're taking this again, so you can take it. What's the use of this thing?"

Only then did Bighead Yang raise his head to look at the newcomer, just like most of the people from the apocalypse, the young man's face was black, black, yellow, and only his eyes seemed especially bright, looking especially energetic. He had a good impression of the crystal core, but didn't ask for one from him. He said, "Keep it for yourself. It will be used for you one day when you arrive at the base."

That person then put the crystal core into his pocket, and introduced himself with a smile, "Brother, what's your name, where are you going? My name is Huang Dafa, the people in this caravan are all from Hebei, the winter in the north is too cold, everyone wants to go to the south to have a look. If it's along the way, we can go on the road together and be companions. "

Big Head Yang touched his pocket and took out the only photo of him and his wife, asking, "Have you seen this woman before?"

Huang Dafei took the photo and carefully looked at it for a long time before hesitating, "When we were surrounded by zombies this morning, I seem to have seen a woman driving a car past us. A few zombies even chased after her, but I don't know what was behind it."

When Bighead Yang heard this, he retrieved the photo, worrying about his wife's safety. He did not notice that the young man had already returned to the caravan, chatting with a middle-aged man who seemed to be the leader.

When the rest of the carriages moved all the zombies to the roadside and cleared the way to the south, Yang Bighead saw that within the zombies were not only zombies, but also white skeletons that looked like they were being gnawed on. He guessed that those were probably the people in his team, so they didn't have enough time to escape and ended up as zombie rations.

Even though he had seen many deaths, Yang Bighead's heart still felt heavy. He sighed, boarded his car, and drove towards the south. He only hoped that his wife was still alive and well on her way to the south. As long as one was alive, there was hope that one day they would be able to find him.

Huang Dafeng and the others were not far behind his car, and with Yang Bighead leading the way, the zombies that they encountered along the way wouldn't be as scary as they were before. The braver ones in the group would often get off the car to kill zombies with Yang Bighead. After he stopped to rest, everyone else stopped to rest as well. After a while, Yang Bighead gradually got more familiar with the people in the caravan.

Every time Bighead Yang passed the city, he would drive his car to the most crowded places to find out the whereabouts of his wife. Although the people in the caravan had their complaints, they couldn't bear to leave his killing machine, so they followed Bighead Yang around the back of his car, even if they had taken a detour.

Huang Dafa, the young man in the caravan who had initially tried to get close to him, often stuck close to Bighead Yang, and gradually found out the reason why he was traveling alone. He had tried to persuade Bighead Yang more than once not to look for him anymore. China was a huge place, and the vast sea of people were trying to find a single person. It was no different than looking for a needle in a haystack. Besides, any woman who could run away was not a woman worth keeping. With how chaotic the world was now, it would be better to find a woman and change them. For example, there were a few in their caravan that were willing to follow Bighead Yang.

As he said this, Bighead Yang did not make a sound. He silently listened to what he had to say, but what he should do next time was to continue doing it. Huang Dafeng was left with no other choice but to follow Bighead Yang and ask around in various towns along the way, while his team took advantage of this time to gather supplies in the city. Fortunately, the apocalypse had just started a year or two ago, and materials were scattered and had not yet been collected by the surrounding bases. After all, the people who passed by had limited loads, and could even collect materials like gasoline.

Just like that, they followed Bighead Yang, wandering around the various bases as they compared and compared them. In the end, they followed Bighead Yang all the way south until they arrived at the New Dawn Survivor's base that he had lived in for a year with Gu Cheng and the rest.

When the base chief saw that Bighead Yang had returned, he was rather surprised. After inquiring about how Gu Cheng and the rest were doing, he arranged for Bighead Yang to stay in the small room that Gu Cheng had previously stayed in.

He had been hoping that his wife had already returned to the Survivor of New Dawn base, but upon further investigation, he realized that there was no trace of her at all. Her older brother and sister-in-law even hated Bighead Yang to death. Back then, they had disagreed with everything they had to accompany Gu Cheng and the others on their adventures in the north.

It was said that the base's experimental fields had developed new types of evolved crops, common vegetables such as cabbages, onions, and even new types of rice that could be grown in drylands. When the production technology matured, they would be able to market it in large quantities and provide the daily necessities of the base's survivors. Such technology was one of the best in the surrounding bases. It was said that even Beijing and other large bases had no knowledge of such technology.

Now, he came back with a face full of dust, and even lost their precious little sister. It was unknown whether he was still alive or not, so how could the older brother and sister-in-law accept this? Yang Da had his head shut the moment he opened the door, in the end he was still in the wrong, so he could only quietly hang the things he brought with him on the door handle, while on mission he held a photo and asked passersby for the whereabouts of his wife.

Bighead Yang even made a trip back to the Green Origin Sector. It took him two days to check every room and make sure no one was living there before he disappointedly drove back to the New Dawn base.

Huang Dafei's team often took him on missions as well. Every time they rested, they would see him in a daze with a yellowed photo in his hand, and they would always look away from him. Unfortunately, Bighead Yang never noticed their abnormality.

"Brother Yang, it's time to go."

Huang Dafei jogged as he greeted him. Yang Bighead put out his cigarette, put the photo back into his pocket, and silently followed him to the fleet.

As they neared, Bighead Yang heard that those few people seemed to be a little drunk. It was probably because they were all relaxed after completing the mission, and actually celebrated their achievement in the wild. He couldn't help but show an expression of disapproval. These people were either tired of living or crazy. There were a lot of accidents in the wild, but they didn't even return to the city. These people actually dared to get drunk like this.

Just as he was about to go grab the wine bottles of everyone, Bighead Yang heard the front part of the group proudly say, "Brothers, let's toast together. It's all thanks to Bighead Yang that we were able to survive and return to the south, and live our days like this. Come, come, let's toast!"

Only then did Yang Bighead realize that he was being led by Huang Dafei to stand behind the bus. From their angle, they could clearly hear the people in front, but they could not see him.

Just as he was puzzled, Huang Dafeng shushed him with a hand gesture, then left him and turned to face the front.

"Good timing! Where did you run off to? I was just talking about you." "If it wasn't for the fact that you were quick-witted and lied to Bighead Yang and his wife and that we were eaten by zombies, we would have been killed by him. It's all thanks to you, you have to finish this bottle of wine, otherwise you wouldn't give us brothers any face." Boss Wen was already a bit drunk. Although his words were still sharp, he had lost all sense of propriety. He even shook off the heavy guard that usually guarded the car at all costs.

Standing behind the bus, Bighead Yang opened his eyes wide in shock, unable to accept the news he just heard.

What did he mean by lying to him?

It was unknown who laughed as he continued, "On the way there, he looked really pitiful. He scouted the area one by one, and if it wasn't for him leaving us halfway, I really want to tell him that his wife has been eaten by zombies."

"It was your wife who did this. If it wasn't for her taking a fancy to Boss Yang's car and forcing her out of it with Jie'er, she wouldn't have been so unlucky to be eaten by the surrounding zombies."

"It was clearly you, the lover, who was afraid of death that pushed her over. What does it have to do with my wife?"

A few people were arguing and were about to make a move. It was unknown who persuaded them, but they managed to persuade the people who had drunk too much. Everyone was just about to continue drinking when a shadow appeared in front of their eyes. The drunk crowd raised their heads and had the same frightened expression on their faces.

Big Head Yang held the familiar steel pipe in his hand and looked down at them from above with a black face. He waved the steel pipe in his hand and stabbed at them without waiting for them to beg for mercy.

Ten minutes later, the last man who spoke looked as if he was going to die, he faced the sky and laughed, provoking Yang Bighead, "You pretended to be in love, but your own wife didn't come out. When you killed the zombies, the woman you stepped on was your wife, didn't you recognize her? Hahaha … "This is the funniest joke I've seen this year …"

Before he could finish his sentence, Yang Bighead's throat was pierced through by a tube, and fresh blood gushed out from the tube, splashing all over Yang Bighead's face.

Looking back, he saw that the camp, which had been full of laughter just now, was now littered with corpses. Only Huang Dafu was still sitting in his original position, calmly waiting for his fate.

"You knew." Yang Bighead pointed at him and asked, still holding the bleeding steel pipe.

"Well, I recognized it when I saw the picture you took out." he admitted frankly.

"Why?" Why didn't you tell me? Why did you lie to me? Bighead Yang could not forgive himself for leaving his wife's corpse alone in the wilderness. He even foolishly protected this group of murderers, either directly or indirectly killing her, as they safely made it to the New Dawn base.

"Because I am afraid. Although I didn't do it, your ability to kill zombies was too strong. The moment I saw the photo, I was scared, afraid that you would vent your anger and kill all of us. So I thought, "Why don't I trick you into thinking that she's still alive, so that the people in the car won't be in danger, and we can follow you safely to the south."

Bighead Yang sneered, "Then why did you do such a trap today to tell me the truth? Aren't you afraid of death? "

"They are afraid that one day you will find out the truth and plot against you. Brother Yang, although I'm not an easy person to recognize, I can't repay kindness with hatred. I fooled you for a while that day. I've seen you looking for my sister-in-law all over the world, and I've been tortured by my conscience almost every day. Originally, I didn't have the courage to tell you about this matter, but Boss Wen and the others went too far. They wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to lure you into the pile of zombies. "I don't want to do anything wrong again, Yang-ge, you already know the truth of this matter, if you want to kill it or scrape it, it's up to you, I'll return it to you."

Huang Dagang looked at the dripping blood from the steel pipe in his hand, then looked at the dead bodies of his companions lying around, and then closed his eyes without a shred of fear.

After waiting for a long time, the pain he imagined did not come. He opened his eyes and saw that other than him, there was no one else.

Since then, Huang Dafei did not see a trace of Big Head Yang in the base. Once he lost his family support, Boss Wen's wife and the other two women were unable to hold on for much longer. There were those who gave themselves to the other mission team leaders and those who went to the Red Team to earn a living.

In the dead of night, he also thought that Brother Yang should have returned to Beijing by now. He had said that he had several friends in Beijing who were even more capable than he was. Amongst all the people Huang Dafeng had met, Yang Bighead was considered very powerful, he was able to knock away a Class 3 zombie with a single punch. An ordinary steel pipe, in his hands, became a tool for harvesting zombie heads. He couldn't imagine how strong someone stronger than Brother Yang would be.

However, that was the world of big figures. He would never have imagined that he would be able to survive in the apocalypse.

Huang Dafa closed his eyes quietly. In his dream, his Brother Yang had successfully returned to Beijing with a beautiful new sister-in-law in his arms. He was smiling very happily.
