The Diary of a Female Zombie’s Hiking Adventure

Chapter 113

Yu Qingxian took the Tyrannosaurus Rex to the pet hospital again.

Although she could not perform any examinations at all.

But she still had the Tyrannosaurus Rex weighed.

Yu Qingxian looked at the weight shown on the scale, and couldn't help but glance at the Tyrannosaurus Rex.

"You've gained over two hundred pounds. It turns out you're not just fluffed up." Yu Qingxian reached out and rubbed the Tyrannosaurus Rex's big head.

Indeed, the Tyrannosaurus Rex now seemed much larger than herself, about the size of a small car.

Especially its pure white fur, making it appear even bigger.

Yu Qingxian measured its height with a ruler, from head to ground it was one and a half meters.

No wonder when it squatted down, she could completely hide behind it.

And the distance from its back to the ground was just under one and a third meters, but that was still exceptionally tall.

From its nose to the tip of its tail, it was nearly two meters long.

Yu Qingxian used to think that two meters was an exaggeration of how big it was.

But when she actually measured it with a ruler, Yu Qingxian was still shocked.

It was completely like a half-grown calf.

Yu Qingxian looked at the Tyrannosaurus Rex, and applied some de-worming medication on the back of its neck.

The Tyrannosaurus Rex was quite cooperative.

It was just that one small tube of medication didn't seem to have much effect, so she applied several more tubes.

She waited for a while before observing the Tyrannosaurus Rex's condition, and seeing no reaction, she started looking for dog food.

But a lot of the dog food had already expired, though some were still within their expiration dates.

Yu Qingxian wasn't sure if the Tyrannosaurus Rex would have any issues eating the expired dog food.

It's just that in this city now, this was one of the only places she could find food for the Tyrannosaurus Rex.

The stuff in the supermarkets had long expired and was inedible.

So generally speaking, one year after the apocalypse, there were fewer people coming to the cities to scavenge for supplies.

At this point, they would all go out into the wilderness to hunt mutant animals.

And see if there were any fruits or berries.

But Yu Qingxian felt that with their country's agricultural techniques, they were actually quite capable when it came to food.

After all, their ancestors had suffered from hunger, leading their descendants to be imbued with the genes for farming.

Even Yu Qingxian, an autistic child, wanted to grow flowers and plants on the balcony.

She even thought she could grow some vegetables, as some vegetables grew quite beautifully.

Even though the soil and water were now contaminated by the virus, humans had been living for over a year.

Their bodies had developed some immunity, and those mutated, zombie-like plants could just be pulled out. It was just that the process was rather tedious, more suitable for patient people.

As Yu Qingxian thought about this, she looked down to see the Tyrannosaurus Rex had gone to get the dog food itself.

Clearly, these dog foods had been kept at a low temperature, preserving them quite well with no signs of spoilage.

Yu Qingxian couldn't smell anything off, so she let the Tyrannosaurus Rex choose for itself.

After dragging out a few bags, the Tyrannosaurus Rex stopped moving.

Yu Qingxian then loaded these few bags of dog food onto the saddlebags on its back.

Worried that heavy objects might hurt its waist, she placed the saddlebags on its shoulders instead.

Fortunately, the Tyrannosaurus Rex was large enough that these nearly one hundred pounds of dog food could barely fit.

Then Yu Qingxian went out and brought back a lot of ice cubes.

She didn't melt them into water and bottle it, but slowly distilled the water instead.

This distillation process took days and nights.

Yu Qingxian was worried the Tyrannosaurus Rex would get bored, so she took the saddlebags off and let it go play with the zombies on its own.

However, it seemed the Tyrannosaurus Rex could also maintain its stamina and vitality through its Crystal Core.

So Yu Qingxian let it go wild for a while, so the dog food could last longer.

After Yu Qingxian released the Tyrannosaurus Rex, the whole city became chaotic.

One moment the zombies were chasing the Tyrannosaurus Rex past her door, the next the Tyrannosaurus Rex covered in electric sparks was chasing the zombies past.

It had an endless supply of energy, so much that even Yu Qingxian felt tired just watching from her sandy sofa.

After several days, Yu Qingxian finally had a few bottles of distilled water ready.

After cleaning up, Yu Qingxian prepared to leave the city with the Tyrannosaurus Rex.

It was around this time that Yu Qingxian received a message from Liu Nian.

'Happy New Year, to you and the dog.'

Yu Qingxian opened the calendar and realized it was New Year's Eve.

Time really flew by.

This made Yu Qingxian recall that last year in March, she was setting off fireworks in a city to the east.

Others didn't dare, but she did.

Liu Nian hadn't received a reply, so she was naturally a bit worried.

She sent several more messages in a row.

Finally, a message came back.

'Happy New Year's Eve, want to see fireworks?'

Liu Nian stared at this message for a while, both surprised and delighted.

But considering the current era, Liu Nian replied: Although I really want to, the noise and light would attract zombies and zombie animals. I can secretly watch old videos instead, it's okay.

When Yu Qingxian saw the message, she felt Liu Nian was such a good kid.

Already thinking about so much at just seven years old.

But she really wasn't afraid of zombies or zombie animals.

It felt like in this apocalypse, only she could wander around carrying speakers.

Yu Qingxian didn't reply to Liu Nian's message.

Instead, she took the Tyrannosaurus Rex to find fireworks.

She didn't know if fireworks could still be set off these days.

After finding some, Yu Qingxian tried them out first.

They still worked.

The Tyrannosaurus Rex was startled by the firecrackers, twitching constantly.

Helpless, the Tyrannosaurus Rex's hearing was also very sensitive.

Worried that some fireworks might be damp, Yu Qingxian even lit a fire on the rooftop to dry them out.

Then she just sat on the rooftop waiting for nightfall.

When night fell, Yu Qingxian started dragging the pile of fireworks over and lighting them up.

Although not as beautiful as professional displays, Yu Qingxian thought it was quite nice.

She set up a camera to record, and also recorded a video segment on her phone.

She recorded video clips of almost every type of firework.

Finally, she selected the most beautiful segment and sent it to Liu Nian.

Of course, Yu Qingxian setting off fireworks caused a massive ruckus.

Downstairs, a dense crowd of zombies had gathered.

There were even some level two and three zombies climbing up the outer walls.

But the Tyrannosaurus Rex had already run far away, leaving only Yu Qingxian there.

When she saw a level two zombie climb up, she even cheerfully greeted it.

"Happy New Year, you've come to watch the fireworks too?"

That zombie, seeing no living beings around, felt it had been tricked.

It cursed Yu Qingxian for a while, then jumped away from the rooftop.

"Hey! I was just setting off fireworks for you all to enjoy, how can you call me a lunatic!" Yu Qingxian said, then lit a firework and shot it towards its back.

Since they were all zombies, she didn't have to worry about anything.

After all, zombies were only interested in food, and they wouldn't stare at her or look at her with judging eyes.

She didn't even need to initiate conversation with them or try to please them.

In general, interacting with people was the world's greatest challenge for Yu Qingxian.

Interacting with zombies was much simpler.

Because Yu Qingxian was someone who genuinely worried about how others would perceive her actions.

Even when chatting with others online, she would ponder for a long time before posting a message, eventually giving up.

She found that no matter what she said, it would be misinterpreted.

At first, she would share her opinions, but later she would just give a like and move on, even though she had a lot to say in her heart, ultimately deciding it wasn't worth it.

Because explaining herself was truly troublesome.
