Peng Mao was also surprised to see his brother Peng Sheng here. Although the two of them seem to have been separated for a long time, it’s only been eight days since then.

However, during these eight days, Peng Mao has experienced a lot and he isn’t as weak as he was before. He no longer complains that his brother abandoned him, after all, in the face of survival, selfishness isn’t uncommon.

In the past, he used to have little hope for his brother, he’s his brother after all, but he still hoped that Peng Sheng would go with him. Of course, he was also happy when he found out that his brother was still alive.

But he didn’t dare bring Hao Jian and the others over, Ding Gunian’s knew he’s just a paper tiger after all, and if they attacked Hao Jian, Lian Ru Ning, and Xin Ting, he’s afraid he’ll have to spend the rest of his life in regret.

“I want to talk to him about something. You don’t have to take care of me, just move according to your plan!” Peng Mao said frankly, “This is my decision. Whether I live or die because of the consequences is my responsibility alone. This time, I won’t cry and wait for you to save me again!”

Shi Gong Dui was surprised, “So it’s true that you’re a pussy, still crying and waiting for beauties to save you?!”

It’s rare for Peng Mao not to argue with him, instead, he patted his shoulder earnestly, “After I leave, you’ll be the only man left here. Although you’re fat, perverted, and unhygienic, you’re in good hands. Well, there’s a leader so having others think that you can protect the three girls is enough.”

“Shit, what do you mean not hygienic. . .” The more Shi Gong Dui continued, the less confidence he had, “Just hurry up and go!”

Peng Mao wanted to pack up his things but found that he actually had nothing to pack. Even the crowbar in his hand was given by Hao Jian. After hesitating for a little while, he gave the crowbar to Shi Gong Dui and planned to head over to Peng Sheng just like that.

Shi Gong Dui said, “I’m technical personnel, carrying it is useless, you take it!”

His gaze landed on Xin Ting and froze on the spot.

On one hand is his own brother, while on the other is the girl he likes. It is indeed a difficult choice.

Without hesitating for too long, he turned to Hao Jian and said, ” Thank you for saving me in the first place and for being willing to take me in and accept me, who’s of little use to you. I know it’s a bit irresponsible for me to leave the team like this, but. . .”

Hao Jian waved her hand, “No need to say anything. It’s rare for you to be so determined to do something and I can still think highly of you.”

Peng Mao’s words got stuck in his throat. Well, he almost forgot that Hao Jian had a sharp tongue and an unforgiving woman of action.

But it made him feel a little better when Hao Jian and the girls didn’t blame him.

After embarking on a solo journey to find his brother three to four kilometers away, he couldn’t resist the urge to turn back, but he held it in again and again. After walking for a few more minutes, he couldn’t stop himself and looked back. He vaguely saw a few people leaning against the car and opening bottles of coke.

“???”

He was so angry that he didn’t know what to do. He could go back, but his goodbyes have been said, and it’s too humiliating to go back like this. . .

The distance of three or four kilometers may not seem far away, but it would still take at least 40 minutes of walking to arrive as soon as possible. Running would shorten it, but Peng Mao wants to preserve his strength, so he can only walk.

The closer he go to where Peng Mao was, the clearer view he had of how serious the traffic accidents and congestion on the highway is. If they still drove down, he’s afraid that they’ll soon be blocked.

Thanks to their binoculars, they were able to assess the situation, otherwise, they would have gone for nothing.

He also couldn’t expect Peng Sheng and his group to clear this side of the road since they seem to be cleaning up the highway from this town from the highway to Chengxiang. As for this section of their exit road, he knows they will ignore it.

After walking for half an hour, the sun was still blocked by the mountains to the east and it hasn’t reached Peng Mao yet. He was also sweating and his sweat was soaking the backpack he’s carrying, so he had to put it down and carry it with his hands.

Fortunately, the other side was a low slope and it wasn’t easy for zombies to climb up from below. The zombies on the highway seemed to have been attracted by the sound of Peng Sheng and his group’s activities, otherwise, his journey wouldn’t be as safe.

Finally seeing a vague figure, he couldn’t help himself but speed up, almost running, and reached the distance where the group could spot his figure in no time.

“Is that a person, or a zombie?” The people on the other side stopped working and stared at Peng Mao.

The group was still very vigilant against Peng Mao. Fearing that they may have guns in their hands, he immediately shouted, “I’m a living person!”

“Fuck, you fucking shouted so loud that the zombies got attracted!” Someone, who didn’t expect him to take such an action, immediately warned.

Peng Mao heard the voice and stopped talking. Two people were walking towards him, and when they got closer, they turned out to be familiar faces.

“Yo-ho, if it isn’t that guy, who. . .” One of them laughed.

The other one, who looked like a newcomer and hadn’t met Peng Mao, asked, “Who is he?”

“You probably didn’t know since you just joined, but this guy is Bitch Sheng’s older brother, a guy who’s even more ambitious than Bitch Sheng. Don’t get intimidated by his muscles, they’re actually just fancy pillows.” The man teased.

If he heard such a comment before, Peng Mao would have been sad or angry, but after experiencing a lot of life and death situations, his temper had also been polished a lot and he immediately held back.

But what surprised him was that his younger brother was actually nicknamed “Bitch Sheng” ?!

“Aren’t you the bitch next to Ding Gunian! What’s your name again? Bitch Dan, bitch Mao, son of a bitch. . . could it be lapdog?” Peng Mao smiled.

Although he has little power, it doesn’t mean that he needs to wag his tail and beg for mercy. His purpose is only to find Peng Sheng and not beg to follow Ding Gunian, so he doesn’t need to lower his head.

“What did you say?!” The man was furious and was just about to go up and give Peng Mao some beating, but he when saw Peng Mao pick up the dirty crowbar and examine it in his hands.

The man immediately calmed down. They met and left Peng Mao in Jiangshi, yet Peng Mao was able to come here alone, didn’t he have something to rely on? Otherwise, the way they abandoned him, it would’ve been strange if he survived another day!

Looking at Peng Mao, he still had the same face, but he was different from the guy who was shivering when he encountered zombies before. How can a person’s nature change so quickly in just a few days? He must have something to rely on!

The man was shocked and didn’t dare to recklessly step forward, but still tentatively asked, “Why are you here?”

“I saw Peng Sheng so I came to look for him.” Peng Mao didn’t say how he saw Peng Sheng. The man became even warier of him and looked around to see if anyone was lurking in the dark.

Peng Mao knew his worries and didn’t say he came alone.

After following Hao Jian and the others for so long, he also learned a few tricks. Only by making himself look intimidating can other people be wary or have leverage during negotiations.

“Bitch-I mean, Peng Sheng is over there. Are you coming with us?”

Peng Mao didn’t hesitate and maintained an aura of ‘I have a big boss behind me and I’m not afraid of you going against me.’ The newcomer leading the way couldn’t help but secretly ask his comrade, “Brother Xun, why are you so polite to him?”

The man called ‘Brother Xun’ glanced back at Peng Mao before answering in a whisper, “You know how much of a pushover and useless bitch Sheng is.”

The newcomer nodded in agreement.

“That brother of his was even more useless than bitch Sheng that he trembled in fear when he saw the zombies.”

The newcomer was astonished, “But he doesn’t look like such a useless person!”

“Exactly, so, does he dare to come here alone? That’s absolutely impossible. He definitely found a backer like Mr. Ding. I have to hurry back and inform Mr. Ding about this. You take him to find bitch Sheng.”

After ‘Brother Xun’ ordered, he quickly left. Peng Mao guessed that he might have gone to look for Ding Gunian, but he didn’t care. He only wanted to find Peng Sheng.

Since Peng Sheng listened to Ding Gunian’s words and abandoned his brother, he did feel a little guilty. But without his brother dragging his feet, his teammates’ attitude towards him became more pleasant and swept his guilt under his feet.

In his opinion, following Ding Gunian is undoubtedly the right move. Although he had to kill zombies and had to do miscellaneous tasks, Ding Gunian never lacked in giving him three meals a day.

However, such good times changed after he was injured in an accident and his fighting ability decreased. At that time, Ding Gunian’s team continued to grow and there were many people more capable than him, so he was gradually removed from the center of power.

He wasn’t going to back down and was very diligent in many tasks and even took the initiative to help Ding Gunian fetch water and wash his feet.

Ding Gunian saw that he had been with him for so long and didn’t want people to say that he had ruthlessly kicked his former ‘brothers’ away, so he didn’t kick him out. However, he still left the nickname ‘Bitch Sheng’ in the team and became a laughing stock behind his back.

Even if Peng Sheng had strong self-esteem, reality doesn’t allow him to leave because the benefits of following Ding Gunian were like drugs for him. If he become someone without a backing, without power, he’d have to fight other people to the death for a piece of bread, something he can’t do.

What’s the use of dignity? He can even completely abandon his conscience for the sake of survival.

When he saw Peng Mao again, he was in a daze and thought that he heard wrong, but Peng Mao was standing in front of him, alive. Compared to his embarrassing looks, Peng Mao seemed to be doing very well.

He got angry and shouted at the top of his lungs, “Why are you here?!”

Peng Mao frowned, but he still ignored Peng Sheng’s rudeness and answered, “I saw you and came over. Do you think it’s impossible that I could come here alive?”

Peng Sheng choked as if there was a fishbone stuck in his throat that he couldn’t cough out. It was extremely uncomfortable.

He came back to his senses and saw Peng Mao holding a crowbar that had obviously killed a lot of zombies that it even became slightly bent. He could imagine Peng Mao’s figure bravely beating and killing zombies while standing on top of their corpses.

But soon, his mind was once again reminded of Peng Mao’s embarrassing appearance that was so scared of the zombies that he almost peed his pants. He didn’t believe that Peng Mao could come here alone.

The two brothers were speechless. When Ding Gunian heard from ‘Brother Xun’, he wasn’t originally very interested in Peng Mao’s appearance, but when he heard that Peng Mao may have someone who has a lot of power behind him, he had to pay attention to it.

“Bring them here.” Ding Gu Nian waved his hand like an emperor in a high position.

‘Brother Xun’ then said, “Peng Mao refused to come over. He said he was just here to see Bitch Sheng.”

It was the first time that someone disobeyed Ding Gunian and he was a little angry, however, he also knew that Peng Mao is no longer a part of his team and that he wouldn’t wag his tail to him, unlike Peng Sheng.

He stood up, took another pair of sunglasses, and put them on. He then said indifferently, “Then let’s go and see where his confidence comes from.”

‘Brother Xun’ immediately picked up a parasol and opened it to shield Ding Gunian from the sun. When everyone saw him, they stopped whatever they were doing and looked at him as if he was really the center of the world, the most anticipated emperor in the limelight.

When he reached the entrance of the highway, he heard Peng Mao tell Peng Sheng, “I want to talk to you.”

He couldn’t help but speak up, “The person who has his subordinates taken away, aren’t you going to greet me?”

Peng Mao almost couldn’t recognize Ding Gunian, but judging from his stinky and arrogant attitude, he was still the same Ding Gunian.

Ding Gunian looked around and said, “You continue working. If you haven’t cleared a path before this afternoon, you will all stay here for the night!”

When everyone heard it, they hurried back to clean up the blocked vehicles.

Ding Gunian also didn’t bother to greet Peng Mao as he continued, “You’re also quite lucky to actually find a team who’s willing to take you in. However, they found out again that you’re actually useless and discarded you, didn’t they?”

Peng Mao wasn’t happy with him slandering Hao Jian and the others so much so he coldly replied, “Do you think everyone is like you? Calling them brothers when they’re useful and when they’re slightly less useful than before, you discard them like pawns?”

Of course, he wasn’t talking about him. He was just angry for Peng Seng after guessing his situation.

Du Gunian was very upset. To be honest, he was very happy these last few days that everyone who questioned or went against him was either kicked out of the team or beaten in the face as a lesson. No one dared to disobey him after that and now, Peng Mao was the only one who angered him recently.

However, Peng Mao isn’t a member of his team so he can’t really use such actions as kicking him out or disciplining him.

But he absolutely can’t contain his anger either.

Just as he was about to order someone to teach Peng Mao a lesson, he heard the sound of engines from a distance. The crowd, including him, turned their eyes over and saw a Suzuki motorcycle swiftly approaching and stopped not too far from them.

The one driving was a beautiful woman whose figure looked tall and had a pretty face. Behind her was an even more beautiful woman but with a hint of innocence or childishness.

Peng Mao froze, then heard the rider raise her chin, “You run so fast. If you won’t help clear the roadblocks, you won’t have your share for lunch.

Peng Mao’s nose turned red and he wanted to say something touching, but when he remembered what he saw and thought about it, he couldn’t help but curse instead, “I saw you drink coke secretly and didn’t leave me any!”
