CHAPTER 168: CHAPTER 91: "EVIL WIND" AND IT’S ALSO NORMAL (5.2)_3

"Okay..." The few people nodded dumbly.

"Or..." One of them pointed diagonally opposite, "There’s a restaurant over there, why don’t we go there first and see if there’s food?"

"Let’s go." Zhang Feng nodded, went back to call Ah Sheng, and then headed in that direction.

When they arrived at the small restaurant, the long-haired man closed the door, blocking the damp cold wind outside.

After Zhang Feng decapitated a zombie from the kitchen, he looked at the people who followed,

"Thanks for the heads-up earlier."

"No need, no need..." The long-haired man waved his hands hurriedly, "Really, bro, if I knew you had this skill, I wouldn’t have called out.

Just wanted to avoid causing trouble for you."

"You’ve already said, ’If I had known.’." Zhang Feng sat on a dusty bench, raising a puff of dust, "Then I can say ’luckily,’ luckily I have this skill.

Otherwise, if it were someone else, and you didn’t warn, they might have crashed into a zombie’s embrace."

"Bro, listen to yourself." The long-haired man felt this guy spoke rather wisely and had a mind to befriend him, introducing himself,

"Bro, I’m Gao Chengde! I just think, since the world is like this now, with so few of us humans left, of course, we should help each other!

Just like us few, brought together like this."

"Right, Old Gao is right." The others nodded in agreement, also intending to befriend this master, and successively introduced themselves.

"Zhang Feng." Zhang Feng didn’t hide his identity and pointed to Ah Sheng who followed him, "He is Ah Sheng."

"Hello, Brother Zhang! Hello, Brother Sheng!" The long-haired Old Gao, upon hearing Zhang Feng’s name, called him Brother Zhang from the heart.

"Brother Zhang!"

"Big brother! Second brother!"

The rest genuinely admired Zhang Feng’s martial skills.

Ah Sheng was rather awkward, unaccustomed to being looked at with such respect by so many people.

Zhang Feng glanced at him, seeing his wavering expression, it seemed he wasn’t too far gone.

Maybe he could be cured.

But with the world like this, let everything take its course.

"Check if there’s anything to eat in the restaurant."

Zhang Feng, seeing that they wanted to follow him, was used to leading people, and easily instructed, "If you encounter any zombies, don’t act rashly.

Call me."

"Yes, big brother!"

They responded and obediently took their weapons to the kitchen.

In such a world, following such a big brother was definitely the right choice.

Plus, this big brother was willing to take them in, so they were naturally happy and eager to obey.

But, after five minutes.

When they returned, they shook their heads.

"Brother Zhang." Old Gao also reported, "The kitchen has been ransacked, even if there’s some leftover food, it’s already rotten, or as dry as dead leaves, crumbling at a touch."

"Hmm." Zhang Feng, sufficiently rested, got up swiftly from the bench, "How long have you been in the mall? Is there any other food?"

"We got here half an hour before Brother Zhang." Old Gao checked the watch on his wrist, "We arrived around noon and cautiously searched for half an hour.

About halfway through, we flipped the shelves that needed flipping.

Didn’t find much food, but saw three zombies."

Old Gao still felt a bit shaken as he mentioned this.

The sudden appearance of zombies in the dark and the silence nearly scared him to death then.

Even though he had zombie fighting experience, fear was still unavoidable.

"Then let’s wait." Zhang Feng looked outside the restaurant, "Let’s search the other half of the area after the rain stops."

The sound of the rain wasn’t very clear, but it definitely affected their search for things.

Because if a zombie truly approached, it might be hard to hear it clearly.

"Shall we have lunch first?"

At this moment, someone else took out a backpack filled with instant food and drinks.

...

Four hours later.

The sound of the rain gradually stopped.

Inside the restaurant, Zhang Feng was eating a spicy chicken leg while observing the mall, now with some light shining through.

The sun was setting in the west, and the mall entrance faced east, not bad at all.

Perhaps because of its good location and illumination, it attracted many survivors to search here.

"Search."

Zhang Feng spat out the bone and led with his knife outside.

’Can Brother Zhang eat that much...’ The others, while walking, eyed the spot where Zhang Feng had been sitting.

At the bottom were all snack wrappers.

Tap tap—

Stepping outside.

Phew, the air was a mix of fresh soil and sewer rot.

Zhang Feng wiped the grease from his lips, still tasting the salty and spicy chicken leg.

Just at this moment.

Tap tap—

Eight meters away, a shelf was pushed over with a ’boom’, and heavy footsteps echoed from the inner side.

"Damn!" Old Gao and the others, upon seeing a six-meter-long crocodile crawling out startled, almost dropping their knives.

Zhang Feng frowned at the sight of the crocodile.

Well, well.

There could be crocodiles inside the mall?

Zhang Feng found this too strange.

But recalling there was a zoo in the city, it wasn’t entirely out of the question.

And with a leather shoe counter in the mall, why couldn’t a freshly made crocodile shoe be there?

"Move back."

Zhang Feng gently pushed Ah Sheng beside him to stand further away.

"Brother Zhang...maybe we should leave..."

Old Gao and the others shifted their weapons in their hands, wanting to step forward but not daring to.

After all, zombies were a bit more predictable, but this crocodile, nearly six meters long, its limbs like barrels.

It looked like trouble.

The evil wind had even caused some animals to mutate.

"This is food."

Zhang Feng replied with just one sentence before charging at the crocodile.

Whoosh—

As he approached, it opened its massive maw.

Zhang Feng sidestepped, swinging his knife forcefully to strike the top of its head.

"Grrrr..." Its scales were hard, resulting in just a small cut, leaking a bit of blood.

Slash~

In its pain, it swung its tail towards the side where Zhang Feng was.

Zhang Feng easily dodged, waited until the force waned, then swung again at its head wound, digging into the brain tissue.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh—

At this moment, the crocodile went berserk, wildly swinging its tail and snapping.

Slash slash slash—

The surrounding shelves were warped and moved by its might.

Zhang Feng stepped back two paces, dodging its tail swipe, then took a step forward, leapt lightly, and landed on its back.

Before getting flung off, Zhang Feng bent his knees, leaned down, and with one more slash, cleaved its brain tissue open with a puff!

Tap—

He leveraged its twitching force to land three meters away.

Zhang Feng flicked off the blood and tissue from his knife.

The crocodile struggled for a few moments, then stopped moving entirely.

’Easier to kill than zombies, although tougher skinned.’
