Chapter 141 An Unexpected Incident: The Green Family Farm (Part 5)

Ta da...ta da...

The sound of hooves gradually faded into the distance, and the figures of the two men and their riders soon disappeared among the trees.

"Ho...ho..."

While everyone was still in shock, the zombie that Maggie had knocked to the ground earlier slowly sat up.

It turns out that Maggie's seemingly fierce attack had not completely killed it.

"Shut up, you bastard..."

Daryl, his face full of impatience, raised his crossbow, aimed it at the walker's head, and pulled the trigger without hesitation...

With a "whoosh," the crossbow bolt shot out like a black lightning bolt, striking the zombie's head with perfect accuracy.

The zombie fell heavily to the ground again, and this time, it was completely still.

This small accident also brought everyone back to reality from their shock.

"Andrea, I'm so sorry, so sorry..."

Amy then came to her senses, looked at her sister with a guilty expression, her eyes filled with tears, and her voice trembling with sobs.

The terrifying scene she just witnessed almost made her think she would lose her sister forever.

As she spoke, she suddenly threw herself into her sister's arms, hugging her tightly, and murmured with lingering fear, "I thought I was going to lose you, I was so scared just now..."

"..."

Andrea reached out and gently patted Amy's back, forcing a smile as she softly comforted her, "It's alright, it's alright."

"I know you were distracted because you were angry with me. I shouldn't have been angry with you. I'm so sorry..."

Amy straightened up from her sister's arms, wiping her tears with the back of her hand as she sobbed, "I didn't mean to upset you, I just... I just wanted you to understand that I'm not a burden to you..."

"I know, I know everything..."

Andrea gently stroked Amy's tear-streaked cheeks, her eyes filled with tenderness, and said, "Amy, you have never been a burden to me. I was just too afraid of losing you, which is why I acted so nervous. I certainly didn't deprive you of your right to choose, and I apologize to you."

"I promise I won't interfere with your choices too much in the future, as long as you know how to protect yourself."

"Uh-huh,"

Amy nodded repeatedly, tears welling in her eyes, then looked at her sister expectantly and asked, "Then, have we made up?"

"..."

Andrea looked at her with affection and smiled with relief, "Yes, we've made up."

"Pfft..."

Amy finally stopped crying and started smiling; her tearful appearance was pitiful.

The two sisters embraced tightly once again, and at that moment, all the previous conflicts and misunderstandings vanished without a trace.

...on the highway.

The afterglow of the setting sun dyed the entire sky golden, and the cars on the road looked as if they were covered with a layer of golden gauze, shining brightly.

"They're back!"

Susan was the first to spot the group emerging from the woods and immediately shouted excitedly.

"..."

Upon hearing the sound, everyone spontaneously came over and waited to greet them in front of the railing by the roadside.

"Hey, uncle!!!"

Amy, with her sharp eyes, spotted Li Ailun's tall and upright figure at a glance and immediately shouted excitedly, "They're back!"

After saying that, Amy immediately let go of her sister's arm and ran eagerly toward the road.

"..."

Andrea couldn't help but roll her eyes when she saw that she had revealed her true colors again.

......

"Uncle!"

Amy deftly vaulted over the highway railing, completely ignoring the stares of the crowd, and leaped into Li Ailun's arms, wrapping her arms around his strong back, instantly feeling a sense of security.

After confirming that she wasn't dreaming, she excitedly said, "You're all back safe and sound. God must have heard my prayers. That's wonderful..."

"..."

Li Ailun was speechless. He didn't believe in God, so he could only gently pat her back to comfort her.

"Uncle, why did you take so long? I was worried for a whole day and night."

Amy looked up at him, gazing at him intently, and asked, "Are you in danger?"

"There's no danger."

Li Ailun gently put his arm around her and softly explained, "It was just that something else came up."

At this moment, the others also walked to the roadside, each of them looking exhausted.

Dale's gaze swept over everyone, and sensing something was wrong, he asked loudly, "Why are you the only ones here? Where is everyone else?"

“We’ve separated from Rick. A woman just said that Carl got shot and took Lori away.”

"Shot?"

Dell's heart tightened, and he immediately asked anxiously, "What do you mean by 'shot'?"

"Dell, I don't know either, I wasn't there at the time."

Glenn, panting as he climbed over the railing, replied, "All I know is that she appeared out of nowhere on horseback like Zorro and took Lori away."

Upon hearing this, Dale immediately turned to Daryl and asked, "You're just going to let her go?"

"Dude, stop bothering me."

Daryl looked annoyed and said irritably, "Rick sent her. She knows Lori and Carl by name..."

"Brother, why do you look so bitter and resentful..."

Moore walked over, casually took the squirrel carcass hanging from his shoulder, and teased with a look of disdain, "I heard you guys were out all day, and this is all you got?"

"What do you care..."

Daryl glanced at Moore and, seeing that he was lively and didn't seem to be in any trouble, decided not to waste any more words on him.

He was in a terrible mood. Today was his first time leading a team, and things almost turned out badly. First, Andrea was nearly attacked by walkers, and then Lori left with someone else without saying a word.

Realizing that he might not be cut out to lead a team was a significant blow to him.

"..."

Dale turned around and saw Andrea walking over. He quickly went up to her and asked with concern, "I heard a scream. Was that you?"

"..."

However, Andrea didn't even glance at him, and walked straight past him with a dark expression.

She was filled with resentment towards Dale because they had taken her pistol today, leaving her defenseless against the walkers.

As Andrea passed by Susan, her gaze fell upon the pistol in the holster on Susan's waist, which made Andrea feel even worse.

"..."

Just as everyone was puzzled, Glenn spoke up to explain, "A zombie attacked her; she really escaped death."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Dale watched her departing figure and asked loudly again, "Andrea, are you alright?"

"..."

Andrea finally turned to look at Dale, but when she saw the sniper rifle in his hand, she was filled with resentment again and had nothing to say to him.

She simply shook her head, turned and walked into the RV, slamming the door shut with a loud "bang" to express her dissatisfaction.

"..."

Amy stuck out her cute little tongue and said to Li Ailun with an embarrassed look, "Uncle, I'm going to check on my sister. She was terrified just now."

After saying that, she reluctantly got out of Li Ailun's arms and walked towards the RV, turning back every few steps.

"What should we do next?"

Carol finally couldn't help but ask a question.

The group looked at each other, realizing that this was indeed a problem that urgently needed to be solved.

Ten minutes later, the group, having rested briefly, was gathered together again.

Susan first introduced Chen Yun, who had a gloomy expression, to everyone. After a brief greeting, they began to discuss their next plans.

"We should get to the farm as soon as possible and meet up with Rick and the others."

Carol was the first to make the suggestion.

“We know nothing about the situation over there. What if they're up to something? We'd be walking right into a trap.”

Moore expressed his doubts.

His words made everyone think, as they truly knew nothing about the farm's condition.

“We can send someone to contact the farm first, and then come back to pick them up after we confirm the situation.”

As Andrea spoke, her gaze drifted toward Susan and the others.

She believed that since they were armed, they should naturally take on more responsibility.

"In this way, our team will be scattered again. If we are like a pile of loose sand, we will only be able to take a beating."

Dell, however, believed that continuing to divide the forces was not a good idea.

"We need a comprehensive plan..."

"If you ask me, we can leave tomorrow morning."

Seeing the various opinions, Daryl looked at everyone and said, "This will allow some time for preparation."

This time, his proposal was approved by most people.

At this moment, Li Ailun, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke: "Perhaps you're overthinking it..."

This sentence instantly drew everyone's attention.

“Since the other side has some understanding of our situation, if they were hostile to us and their strength far exceeds ours, they wouldn’t have needed to resort to tactics like injuring Karl; they would have attacked long ago.”

Lee Allen slowly stated his assessment: "Since no one has made a move over there, it means the situation is probably true. Rick and the others are likely in real trouble..."

Susan agreed with his assessment and continued, "Perhaps Rick and the others need help, and since they can treat Carl's gunshot wound over there, they must have a doctor. Why don't we take T-boy there first, and you guys come back to meet up tomorrow..."

"Uncle."

Amy immediately looked at Li Ailun expectantly and asked, "Can I come with you this time?"

"...Well, if you want to go, then come along."

After a moment's thought, Li Ailun nodded in agreement, feeling that the trip should not be too dangerous.

"Great!"

Amy excitedly hugged Li Allen's arm and cheered.

Andrea instinctively wanted to object, but remembering her previous promise, the words that came out were: "If Amy goes, I'll go too..."

"..."

Seeing this, Dell immediately changed his stance and said, "Then I'll go too. We'll drive the RV there."

Moore couldn't help but roll his eyes and said directly, "In that case, we might as well go together."

He didn't want to be left on the highway to look after the rest of the burden, so he figured they might as well all go together.
