Chapter 221-225

Chapter 221: Coincidence

"Okay, thank you, sister Yan Qian. I will do my best," Yu Jingzhu said gratefully.

Yu Jingzhu paused and sat obediently on the side, following the instructions Tang Deyu had given her in the car earlier.

Jin Shan and Zhang Tao cleared a significant amount of soil below, but the rocks and soil above kept falling back down.

"It seems we might have to stay here for the night," Luo Shiyu commented, acknowledging the scale of the project.

"Let's practice our abilities," Li Yanqian suggested. She also transformed into a temporary earth system ability player, using her power to gradually move the layers of soil and stones.

...

In the dark cave, Jin Jiarong, who was unconscious, suddenly opened his eyes.

He wasn't sure why, but it seemed like he heard his father Jin Shan's voice. However, he dismissed it as an auditory hallucination before death and weakly laughed through his nostrils.

He attempted to turn his head to look around, but the mud on his face pressed against the rocks, rendering him completely immobile. Even changing his expression was a struggle.

"Mom..." Jin Jiarong weakly called out. Two days ago, his mother, Hu Die, would occasionally respond, but now there was no sound.

He tried calling out to Chen Xiaohui and the others again, but received no response.

After two unsuccessful attempts, Jin Jiarong gave up. Perhaps he would be drinking Meng Po soup in the next moment, wasting all his remaining energy.

Despite winning several boxing champion gold medals, he never expected that he would end up buried halfway in a collapsed tunnel. It was ridiculous.

The nightmares and the short days of fighting with zombies now felt like a distant dream, evoking a sense of nostalgia. Jin Jiarong wondered how his father, Jin Shan, was doing. He regretted not letting his father participate in the exchange meeting in Nancheng on his behalf. Maybe, just maybe, they could have reunited as a family.

Damn this tunnel!

Jin Jiarong cursed inwardly and fell back into unconsciousness.

After an unknown period of time, Jin Jiarong heard the echoing voices in his mind again. This time, it wasn't just his father's voice but also a woman's clear voice.

What was happening? Could someone be coming to rescue them? How was it possible? In the past, he would have eagerly anticipated such a rescue, but now, with zombies roaming outside, it seemed far-fetched that anyone would come to their aid.

"Hey! Are there still survivors inside? We're coming, hold on!" Jin Shan anxiously shouted through a hole they had dug.

They had been digging for the whole afternoon, but Li Yanqian discovered that one person inside had died, leaving only three survivors.

"Dad?" Jin Jiarong exclaimed in disbelief, his voice hoarse and feeble. Despite being just a few meters apart, their voices couldn't reach the outside.

"Jia Rong... Jia Rong... Is it really you? Or... am I hearing things?" Chen Xiaohui's weak voice seemed to come from underground, muffled and equally unbelievable.

"I think I also hear my dad's voice..." Jin Jiarong felt a hint of joy. At least his friend Chen Xiaohui was still alive. Even if the voices were fake, they could still tease each other.

Dang!

The sound of falling rubble and vibrations reached them. Both Jin Jiarong and Chen Xiaohui were almost certain that someone was indeed digging a tunnel.
