Chapter 67 - Warm Corpse 5

Ling Liang pressed his fist to his lips and coughed, turned his face sideways, and did not look into Qin Lang’s eyes, he just whispered, “I’m sorry for that, but now is not the time to be angry, it’s more important for you to recover.”

Qin Lang blushed with anger.

But Ling Liang was right. The important thing now is to get well soon. They don’t know when this virus will pass. No police officers have come to the school so far. Now is not a good time to settle accounts with Ling Liang.

After Qin Lang changed his clothes, not long after he came out, there was a new movement downstairs. It was not the news of police coming to the dormitory buildings, but a new nightmare.

One of the dormitories where the classmates were rescued on the first floor had an accident, and it was in Qin Lang’s dormitory building.

After listening to the president’s words, they had observed if any of their classmates had been scratched or bitten. They had already confirmed that none of them were, but less than four hours later, an infected person appeared.

The infected are two girls. They had no obvious wounds so the classmates in that dormitory, including themselves, thought it was all right.

However, they ignored the scratches on their heads. The scratches were shallow and painful but they just just thought they had pulled their hair so their scalps were hurt, so they didn’t pay attention to it.

So, another tragic event happened.

In the dormitory that accommodated more than 20 people, there were screams and the sound of teeth ripping flesh and blood splashing echoing everywhere.

They twisted open the security door of the dormitory in a panic. Unexpectedly, their voices were too loud, and the infected people had already waited outside the door. Therefore, more infected people poured into the room. The students upstairs who heard it were especially frightened.

And those who wanted to get a glimpse of life from the balcony, turned to the balcony and ran out. Their speed is very fast, but the speed of those infected is also not slow. No one can predict whether they can escape or not. They could only pray, pray to be the lucky one and survive.

The classmates who witnessed the tragic sight on the balcony wailed: “What the hell are you doing? Didn’t the president ask you to check it out? How can you…”

The classmate started choking after scolding. Others are also in the same mood, sad, for the dead classmates who were bitten; despair, for themself who is now trapped here.

“President! President help! Woohoo…” Suddenly, a voice came from somewhere on the first floor. His voice was not too loud, probably because he was afraid of bringing back those infected who were chasing after his classmates.

“Who? Where? Are you infected?” Li Bin put his hands on the balcony and stretched his neck to look around. Finally, he found a figure squatting in the corner on the balcony next to the bedroom that had just erupted on the first floor opposite.

The man didn’t dare to speak any more, and only shook his head at Li Bin.

“What should we do, who can save him?” Those who watched on the balcony were as anxious as the classmate who had escaped by chance.

“Li Bin, is it under our dormitory?” Ling Liang glanced down the balcony and saw that the eyes of the students on the opposite side were all looking down the balcony.

“Ling Liang? That’s right! But you are on the fourth floor!”

As soon as these words came out, the people in all the dormitory buildings fell silent again. Fourth floor, how can he help? If it is the second floor, there is still hope.

“Wait!” Qin Lang immediately returned to the dormitory. After looking around in the dormitory, he took out a fruit knife.

“Brother Lang? Do you want me to help?” Xiao Fei followed Qin Lang back to the house.

“Network cable.” Qin Lang said.

“I’m coming.” Ling Liang took the fruit knife in his hand, telling Qin Lang to sit down first, and told Xiao Fei to help move the table to the wall.

“Be careful.” Qin Lang said, looking at Ling Liang who stepped on the table.

The dormitory of K University is beautiful, and the network cables in the dormitory are all fixed to the wall with card slots. Ling Liang stepped on the table and pulled the cable at the end of the broadband connector. Following his movements, a burst of wall dust rose up in the room.

“Don’t look up at me.” Ling Liang lowered his head and met Qin Lang’s eyes, who was holding the foot of the chair for him. Those eyes were very beautiful. Maybe he lowered his head suddenly, so the worry in those eyes wasn’t completely hidden by the master. Ling Liang unconsciously softened his tone, “It will hurt when the dust gets into your eyes.”

[Ding, Ling Liang – favorability +8, current favorability is 38.]

“Oh…” Ling Liang’s last words were too gentle, Qin Lang wasn’t used to it. He hurriedly lowered his head and suppressed the expression on his face, only his beating heart clearly expressed how much joy Ling Liang’s words bring him now.

Although Ling Liang was tall, when he stepped on the table and the set up chair, he still couldn’t cut the network cable completely, he could only cut it as long as possible.

Ling Liang went to the balcony and observed the height of each floor on the opposite side. He squeezed the network cable in his hand, looked at the hopeful eyes on the opposite balcony, shook his head and said, “It’s less than 5 meters, not long enough.”

Someone on the other side said, “The height of each floor of our dormitory building is 2.8 meters. The height from the ground to the fourth floor is 11.2m. Even if the balcony is 1.3m and the classmate’s 1.7m is subtracted. The cable is still not long enough.”

“Give it to me!” The two dormitory buildings were full of bleakness and disappointment that their hopes were dashed, then a voice suddenly sounded.

Ling Liang looked down and saw that there were still people on the third floor. It was the boy who threw a water bottle and a slipper to the infected people in the morning.

“Are you alone?” Ling Liang asked.

“Yes. I also cut the network cable in my bedroom. It should be long enough.” The boy said and was about to walk into the bedroom.

“Wait, are you sure you can pull him up quickly? Once he steps on the balcony, those infected will definitely find out, if your arm strength is not enough, he will…” Ling Liang who was behind didn’t continue speaking, but anyone listening can imagine the scene.

On the third floor, there is a single person, and a person’s strength is very limited. If he does not pull the classmate away from a safe distance in a short time, the classmate exposed to the infected person’s field of vision will directly become bait and will be trapped on the rope, those infected people can eat him or grab him by the leg.

If the student has a good climbing ability, he can climb up a little faster, but it is a network cable, the outside is a smooth rubber. When a person is extremely nervous, his palms will sweat. The most likely result is that when the classmate is climbing, it is very likely that he will fall when he reaches a certain part. The results are predictable.

Therefore, hope can only be placed on those who are going to pull him.

“My name is Yu Chao. I got bad grades in literature but I got into university from physical education.” The boy on the third floor said, “My physical strength is not bad. Some zombies were just chased away, but there are still some downstairs. We must hurry up and give it a try. Otherwise, there will be a lot of wandering downstairs after a while, and we will have no time or ability to save even if we want to.”

Yes, time is also an issue. Otherwise, Qin Lang would not have thought of using a network cable, while they could also use connected sheets and clothes, which should be long enough, but that will be too late.

Ling Liang suddenly said, “I’ll come down, let’s do it together.”

The boy curled up in the corner of the balcony on the first floor looked at upstairs with tears in his eyes.

Qin Lang was startled, and immediately grabbed Ling Liang’s clothes. At this moment, all the hidden thoughts and emotions are gone, only fear is left. What if Ling Liang didn’t hold it steady and fell downstairs when he went downstairs? What if the one pulled up is also scratched? In case…

[Ding, Ling Liang – favorability +5, current favorability is 43. ]

Ling Liang patted Qin Lang’s hand that was holding his clothes, turned his head and said to Qin Lang, “Don’t worry, nothing will happen. Trust me.”

Qin Lang subconsciously wanted to slap him as usual, but now he stubbornly pulls Ling Liang. He can no longer pretend to not care, because in this situation, if there is a little mistake, he may lose Ling Liang forever.

Ling Liang pursed his lips, if, if they could get over this disaster, he would ask Qin Lang – “Why don’t we try?”

Yes, “if”, not “wait until”. Ling Liang realized the seriousness of the disaster. In just half a day, the infected person can spread from the south to K City. In just half a day, the network is lost, the country also doesn’t send anyone to the school immediately. In a place like a school, when something goes wrong, the government will usually be dispatched very quickly. However, this time…even now, they haven’t received a notification from a temporary shelter like an earthquake.

This shows what? K University, which is not in the urban area, has already seen so many infected people, so what about the crowded urban area?

– Probably hell.

He didn’t dare to think about it, because the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became.

Ling Liang was pulled by Qin Lang. He was tying a slipknot in his hand. This is the method of knotting in emergency rescue. Passing the thigh through two loops and tying it around the waist again can ensure the rescued person. It can also greatly reduce the pressure on the rescuers above. Stable and firm, as long as the rescue does not move, their safety is extremely high. Even if the loops on their legs are loosened, there is still the waist, and even if the waist is loosened, there are still hands holding the rope tightly.

Qin Lang let go, but lowered his head and did not speak.

Ling Liang made sure that the place where he was tied would not automatically slide away due to gravity, so he started to wrap it around himself, then looped the network cable around the balcony, and finally let Xiao Fei tie it to the bed. K University’s large balcony is made of stone, which is not as fragile as ordinary iron railings.

Everything was ready, and Yu Chao on the third floor also cut his network cable. Ling Liang rubbed Qin Lang’s head fiercely, and repeated what he just said: “Don’t worry, I’ll be fine. It’s rare that I can see you worrying about me like this in my lifetime.”

“Heh…” Qin Lang sneered. His tone was extremely disdainful, but his clenched hands and the fact that he couldn’t say anything else showed that he was not relieved at all. Although Ling Liang and he grew up together, and were specially trained by their family since childhood, their physical fitness was not weak at all, but he still couldn’t help but worry.

Ling Liang quickly stood on the balcony, then crouched down, and disappeared from Qin Lang’s sight little by little. Even though it was tied to the foot of the bed and circled on the balcony, Xiao Fei and Qin Lang were still pulling the network cable tightly, lowering Ling Liang little by little.

“It’s here!” Ling Liang called out. Qin Lang breathed a sigh of relief. Ling Liang said again, “Put the cable down. The opposite side makes some noise to attract the attention of those infected.”

As soon as Ling Liang’s words came out, those on the opposite side, like a group of demons, began to dance.

“The vast horizon is my love…”

“I’m ugly, but I’m so gentle…”

“If you die, you have to love—”

“You’re poisonous, you’re poisonous, you’re poisonous, poisonous, poisonous… ”

“Pfft…” The students who were still nervous couldn’t help but burst into laughter in this extremely bad tone, “Oh my god, isn’t this too fucking bad to sing?”

Not only that, but some even took out their washbasin, took the hanger and began to hit. The infected people downstairs were probably also stimulated by those demonic tones, so they all crowded downstairs, roaring and looking at those upstairs. Some even stretched out their hands, trying to catch those terrible noise makers upstairs.

Li Bin said: “Our classmates on the first floor of this building should pull the curtains tightly, don’t let them find out, or make small movements!”

The noose of the network cable quickly stretched from the third floor to the first floor. The boy on the first floor was already in tears when he grabbed the rope.

“Don’t make a fool of yourself! The two small loops are placed on the thighs, and the larger one is worn from the top and looped around the waist. Don’t panic, there is still time.” The classmates on the opposite side guided him. They saw that the boy on the first floor was ready to stand on the balcony, and gestured towards Ling Liang and the two, “Pull!”

From the time the boy stood on the balcony, some infected had already spotted him.

How could those sound attacks compare to the seductive onslaught of the living beings in front of them? Almost immediately, those infected people rushed from the opposite building.

“Hurry up, hurry up…”

“Come on! Come on!”

The boy clenched the net cable tightly, shrank his body, closed his eyes tightly and trembled. As soon as he was one meter above the balcony, an infected person climbed onto the balcony. Everyone was sweating for them.

Seeing that the infected person was about to stand up, Ling Liang and Yu Chao worked together to stretch out a great distance. At the same time, the infected person had started to jump towards the boy, extending their bloodless hand.

“Bang——” Someone fell to the ground.

Fortunately, it was the infected person who jumped up to catch the boy but fell down because they couldn’t step on the balcony, and fell directly to the ground. When another infected person climbed to the balcony, the boy was already resting on the second floor balcony.

“That’s great… woo woo…” After watching the whole process of saving someone, many of them had red eyes.

However, everyone’s happiness didn’t last long. There were more and more infected people on the balcony on the first floor, and almost all the people in front of the dormitory came running. Those infected people didn’t know the pain, one stepped and one climbed, and roared towards the boy standing on the balcony on the second floor.

“What the fuck! They are stacking Arhats, hurry up!”
