The moon sank into the clouds, and everything was dark.
Ma Xiaoyu climbed over the wall of the government office and stood on the ground as gently as a fallen leaf, making no sound.
The originally bustling and luxurious Wangnan Mansion Office was now covered by flames, with one-third of its area covered in flames.
The surroundings were in chaos, and Ma Xiaoyu took advantage of the firelight in the distance, tiptoeing and bending forward.
Yin Xiu, Xie Yan and the others had probably reached the front door at this time. Only Ma Xiaoyu was worried about Xiaoyi's safety, so she ran to the backyard.
I am afraid that the entire government office has been attacked by zombies at this time, causing heavy casualties.
Ma Xiaoyu walked around the corridor and gradually walked deeper into the backyard.
It is extremely quiet here, with no human voice or insect chirping, only the intermittent sound of candles burning in some rooms.
When they arrived at the gate of the courtyard where Xiaoyi and her second concubine were, the door was closed.
Seeing this scene, Ma Xiaoyu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief - at this juncture, it is definitely a good thing to keep the door closed.
She pressed her hand lightly on the door, and the door creaked open, like an old lady's moan.
Ma Xiaoyu's heart couldn't help but tighten.
She took out the three-color ruler, held it in her hand, and looked around.
This third-entry courtyard was also quiet at the moment, with no sound at all. However, the door leading to the second aunt's room was open again.
Ma Xiaoyu frowned and was about to walk in when a sound suddenly came from behind her.
"Who?"
Ma Xiaoyu turned around.
In the darkness, Ruan Donghua stood there, holding a sharp knife.
In the dim light, Ma Xiaoyu recognized him from his clothes and figure. He was Wangnan's top officer.
"Something happened." Ruan Donghua said tremblingly.
"I know, I didn't expect those zombies to come here."
"It's not [those zombies], it's the zombie king, the one that can fly, it's so fierce." Ruan Donghua was still frightened.
Of course Ma Xiaoyu knew the shock and surprise of these ordinary people when they saw the Zombie King. Even if they were Taoist priests, who wouldn't be frightened when they saw the Zombie King?
"It's okay. Even if it's the Zombie King, Yin Xiu and the others will deal with it." Ma Xiaoyu said softly.
"Is everything okay?"
Ruan Donghua smiled bitterly, "But I have nothing left."
Ma Xiaoyu's heart skipped a beat, her lips trembled, but no words came out.
"My second aunt, Yin Hong, is dead, right? She was already dead before I came here?"
"That's right."
Ma Xiaoyu nodded without explaining too much.
"She is a miserable person, wandering around, and she finally met me."
Ruan Donghua laughed again, "But who in the world doesn't have a hard life? I am the commander of Wangnan, but I still feel that my life is hard.
Because I didn’t want to be an official, I always felt that my best destiny was to sell the company to a foreigner and then go to Bari to work as an apartment owner.
However, I really have no opinion. When others say something to me or scold me, my hands and feet tremble with fear. This is why I am still here as the leader of Wangnan. ”
Ma Xiaoyu didn't intend to listen to his ramblings, she just wanted to go to the boudoir to explore the life and death of Xiaoyi or others.
"But..."
Ruan Donghua continued to speak, his voice hoarse.
"Now I am certain of one thing. After Yin Hong dies, I have to find another concubine. And I want you. I want you to stay with me here forever."
When Ma Xiaoyu heard this, he stopped and turned around with a contemptuous sneer.
"If you say something like this here, I will just think you are talking nonsense, but if you say it in front of that man, I guarantee you will die immediately."
"Really?" Ruan Donghua laughed loudly.
His laughter was full of brokenness, which made Ma Xiaoyu feel irritable.
The wind blew away the dark clouds, and the moon was once again lifted out of the sea of clouds by invisible hands.
The moonlight shines on the courtyard, a silvery glow.
Ruan Donghua saw the moon, and his body trembled more and more seriously.
He walked forward, his body trembling every two steps he took, his head uncontrollably swaying nervously from side to side, his long knife carving shallow ravines on the ground with a sharp sound.
On his neck, two holes were also particularly conspicuous, with black blood flowing out.
Obviously, he had been bitten by the zombie king.
"You stay here and be my concubine." Ruan Donghua's voice became muffled.
"I told you, you are just talking nonsense."
Ma Xiaoyu took out a piece of talisman paper and was about to take action when she saw many female relatives crowding out of the house around the courtyard.
These wives, ladies, and maids who were originally in full bloom have turned into hideous-looking zombies, breathing out white air.
Ma Xiaoyu's heart skipped a beat because she also saw the figure of the maid Xiaoyi among the zombies.
Her originally clear eyes were completely covered in black, and she looked like a zombie.
Led by Ruan Donghua, these zombies jumped and surrounded Ma Xiaoyu.
Seeing this situation, Ma Xiaoyu had no expression on her face and just added another talisman in her hand.
……
Yin Xiu and the speaker ran to the front court of the government office.
Almost as soon as he entered the door, he saw the zombie king slowly falling on the roof, exuding black energy from his body.
"It turns out there is another one."
Yin Xiu gritted his teeth, "I don't know when it flew over, but we didn't notice it at all."
The interpreter took a look around and said seriously: "Fellow Taoist, it didn't fly here."
Yin Xiu followed his guidance and saw a big hole opened in the ground at some point.
It turned out that the zombie king came in by hiding, and then escaped the sight and perception of Yin Xiu and the others.
As for why it chose this government office far away from the city wall and gave up the fat meat that can be easily eaten, it is probably because the zombie king is very intelligent.
At this time, it was making a sound on the roof, seeming to laugh at Yin Xiu and the others for being late and being stolen from their hometown.
"I'm very angry." Yin Xiu said angrily.
From the moment she walked in and saw the miserable situation here, Yin Xiu became angry for no reason.
Not only because the zombie king bit so many people, but also because he was teased.
The interpreter could only pat him on the shoulder and comfort him: "Evil can never defeat good. The two of us can win it no matter what."
As soon as they finished speaking, around them, the soldiers and officials who had been bitten by the Zombie King and turned into zombies were surrounding them.
The interpreter made a rough calculation and found that including the zombie king, there must be more than fifty zombies.
He couldn't help having a headache and said: "I have never seen such a large number of zombies in my life."
Yin Xiu also agreed very much, "I'm afraid even my great uncle has never seen so many."
"May I ask who your great uncle is?"
"Maoshan Great Heavenly Master, Nangong Baixing!"
Variety Star Lord! [Various Star Lord]: You can use any spell used by any opponent you have fought against.
"Qi Men Dun Jia·Ben Lei!!"
A majestic wave of energy exploded from Yin Xiu's body, causing the interpreter to take a few steps back, his eyes full of surprise.
Then, like a bolt of lightning from the blue, a barrel-thick thunderbolt fell straight from the clouds and landed on Yin Xiu.
Yin Xiu was extremely angry, with lightning lingering around his body, and circles of electric current were vaguely visible. His eyes were also dazzled by the plasma, reflecting a bright cyan light.
Yin Xiu caught the thunder and lightning, made sword gestures with her fingers, and passed by herself.
Tigers, wolves, lions, and thunder beasts all appeared lifelike around Yin Xiu.
Even the dumb zombie began to hesitate after seeing this scene, and the zombie king was even more clever. At this time, he turned around and planned to fly away.
Yin Xiu never gave it a chance to escape. As soon as it took off, a bolt of lightning rushed towards the ridge of the roof.
With a bang, it hit the Zombie King on the back of the heart, and lightning shot out.
The thunder method that all demons feared, coupled with the incomparable surging mana, dragon and tiger aura, the corpse aura in the zombie king was destroyed in one go.
When it was surprised, it turned around and saw that Yin Xiu had floated over like a ghost, came to his side, and kicked it off the roof.
The Zombie King immediately roared and summoned the zombies to come to him. However, Yin Xiu's hand pulled the lightning and passed by it. The zombies were hit by the lightning and fell to the ground, turning into ashes in the flames.
"Son of a bitch."
Yin Xiu cursed and approached the zombie king.
Lightning was lingering around his body, and before he even got closer, a layer of goosebumps appeared on the Zombie King's skin.
"Although you bastards have their reasons, saying that their souls were taken away and only one body was left, so they became walking zombies without thoughts and feelings, only chasing after flesh and blood.
However, if you bite people indiscriminately like this, no matter what the reason is, it is really annoying.
And I am absolutely sure that a bastard like you would not have been a good person during his lifetime. If that were the case, you wouldn't have any regrets if you were asked to die again and be wiped out in ashes, right? ”
The zombie king was shocked by Yin Xiu's murderous aura, spewed out a breath of zombie aura, and immediately ran away to the left. However, Yin Xiu's footsteps slipped and immediately blocked its way.
The Zombie King moved to the right. Yin Xiu swayed and blocked it just in time.
The Zombie King couldn't help but feel desperate. He opened and closed his mouth several times and made a deep exhalation sound.
Yin Xiu neither understood the zombie's words nor cared what the zombie would think. He just pressed his plasma-covered hand on the zombie king's head.
Bah! !
The zombie king is in a state of despair.
The interpreter was stunned as he watched, only to feel that when Yin Xiu used the magic power, there was a circle of golden light shining on the body of the lightning, which stung him and narrowed his eyes.
While he was marveling, from the other end, coming from the backyard of the government office, angry mana fluctuations also came at the same time. A golden light broke through the clouds, almost dyeing the sky, and causing goosebumps to rise on the speaker's body.
The descendants of Southern Mao and Northern Ma are so powerful...
After the extremely angry mana dissipated, Ma Xiaoyu walked out from behind, her face very calm, as if nothing had happened.
However, Yin Xiu could see the melancholy in her body, as well as the emotions hidden underneath the calmness.
"Fellow Daoist Yin, let me go out and check the surroundings to see if any zombies have escaped."
The interpreter noticed the subtlety of the atmosphere and wisely found a reason to retreat.
Yin Xiu nodded at him, "Sorry to trouble you."
After the interpreter turned and left, Yin Xiu hugged Ma Xiaoyu.
"It's okay, it's all over." He said softly.
"I'm not feeling sad." Ma Xiaoyu's voice was hoarse.
"Do you think that we actually caused those zombies?"
"You feel it too?"
There was no surprise in Ma Xiaoyu's voice.
Maybe those cavalry or other idiotic zombies might rush into the city regardless.
But the zombie kings, still four at a time, came here at the same time. It can only be because someone is driving them here.
Moreover, both of them have noticed that these zombie kings are not as tyrannical as those ordinary zombie kings who absorbed moonlight and cultivated themselves.
Just like a person with insufficient foundation is forcibly taught kung fu and given pills, these zombie kings are only strong on the outside but weak on the inside.
Yin Xiu estimated that the cultivation and strength of these modified zombie kings may only be one-third of that of the zombie king in Hong Kong Island.
Even so, the zombie king is a zombie king, and it is not something that ordinary Taoist priests can deal with.
"Actually, it's us who caused it."
Yin Xiu smiled bitterly, "I think they are coming for us."
"Are you coming for us?"
Ma Xiaoyu seemed to feel something, "You mean, just like someone sent a killer, someone sent zombies to hunt us down?"
"That's right."
Yin Xiu told everything about his speculation.
"Only in this way can we explain why so many zombies appear here. Even the zombie king cannot control them."
"Of course I understand, I'm a zombie expert."
Ma Xiaoyu's mood had calmed down a lot in Yin Xiu's arms.
"That drought demon is targeting us, right?"
"Maybe it's it, or maybe it's someone else. Anyway, it's just not easy to mess with."
"Are you scared?" Ma Xiaoyu smiled.
"Who do you think I am!?"
Yin Xiu hugged her tightly, "Master Yin Tianshi, I haven't seen anything before. Why should I be afraid of a zombie?"
"You are not even considered a formal Taoist priest, so why are you still a Heavenly Master?"
Ma Xiaoyu pinched him slightly and said, "If that drought demon really comes, I will deal with it and you just need to do it."
"Don't worry, apprentices like us are just holding on to the Heavenly Master's lap and helping you, aren't we?"
Ma Xiaoyu was about to speak when she suddenly felt a warmth coming from her legs, and her ears turned red. "People say they hug the thighs and hit the hands. It's not like you. Are you serious?"
"It's almost the same." Yin Xiu said with a smile.
"Let someone see it later. Master Xie is still outside."
Ma Xiaoyu gently blocked Yin Xiu's hand from going up.
Even though Yin Xiu had great strength, he was blocked by Ma Xiaoyu's soft strength at this time, and could not move forward any further.
Tenderness is both his motivation and his constraint.
So Yin Xiu pulled her hand back and patted Ma Xiaoyu's shoulder lightly, "Anyway, the soldiers will stop us, and the water will cover us. We are two people who have even been to Kunlun, how can we be afraid of a zombie?"
Ma Xiaoyu just smiled in return.
"It's dawn!"
The interpreter shouted through the wall.
Then the residents of the town also shouted one after another, from small to large, from near to far, like a relay.
"It's dawn!" (End of this chapter)
