Chapter 036 Zombie Lover (19)
"What cracked?" His thoughts were still on the sudden time method, and Lu Wen didn't react to what Taoist Lianxi was saying at first.
Xie Chi had already strode over.
Taoist Master Lianxi was so anxious that he was sweating profusely: "His face is cracked!"
He anxiously poured all the boys' blood in the blood pool nearby into the pool, and Yan Jing immediately became a bloody man.
But this did not stop the cracks on his face from growing bigger.
Xie Chi's eyes were heavy, but he maintained his usual calmness and squatted down to carefully look at Yan Jing's face.
The blood that flowed out of the cracks was not warm, but cold and dark red, which showed that the corpse had transformed well before. Taoist Master Lianxi dared to go out to buy herbs before because he saw this point clearly - Yan Jing's corpse had transformed very smoothly.
But his face suddenly cracked, which was a clear sign of failure. Once Yan Jing's entire body cracked, his plan to refine a living zombie would have failed completely.
Lu Wen's palms were sweating from nervousness, and he was anxious: "How could this happen?!"
Taoist Master Lianxi raised his head abruptly and asked sternly, "How dare you say that? What's wrong with you two? How did the chicken blood dry up?! I warned you so many times! If you didn't want him to live, you shouldn't have asked me to save him in the first place!"
Lu Wen hurriedly defended himself: "I clearly spilled it! I was watching it the whole time because I was afraid of making a mistake. I spilled a lot and I was afraid it would dry up——"
Xie Chi, who was squatting, interrupted: "It's not your fault, it's because of the time law."
Lu Wen stopped talking. Yes, time is the law. It is already three days later. He has not splashed the boy's blood on Yan Jing for three days. The blood has dried up long ago. Yan Jing is only starting to crack at this time. He must have been holding on for a long time in his subconscious.
Lu Wen's eyes turned red instantly.
Xie Chi stood up and patted him on the shoulder: "To be honest, it's my fault."
If he hadn't discovered enough information, the horror movie wouldn't have activated the time method.
This is indeed the logical chain. No matter how you blame someone, Lu Wen cannot be blamed. He is just stating a fact.
Lu Wen shook his head repeatedly: "No! This has nothing to do with you, it's just that the horror movie doesn't want us to succeed! It's intentional! Rubbish horror movie!"
Hope rose and then shattered, and his expression was almost ferocious.
[The living zombies are too buggy, probably because they exceed the upper limit of the film's force, so they were sanctioned. APP doesn't want to make living zombies, because it is not within the scope of the predetermined plot, and it is easy to cause the ending to get out of control. The time method can be said to kill two birds with one stone. ]
[There's nothing I can do about it. I'm really helpless. So after working so hard for so long, does that mean I've failed? You see, the cracks are getting bigger and bigger.]
Lu Wen was venting his anger in a disastrous manner. Xie Chi walked up to Taoist Lianxi and asked calmly, "Is there any way to remedy this?"
Since Yan Jing could survive three days without the boy's blood, anything could happen.
Taoist Master Lianxi looked dejected: "No, if you miss it, it's gone. No matter how you save it, it's useless. Whether he can survive it depends on him, but most likely..."
Taoist Master Lianxi's eyes were dim: "Most likely he is gone."
"The probability of a living person becoming a zombie is extremely low. The conditions are harsh and require incredible luck. The reason he was able to survive was not only because he had a deep wish and a pure mind, but also because he had karma. His ancestors left him great blessings. Now... Alas." Taoist Master Lianxi couldn't bear to continue.
Xie Chi: "We can only wait?"
Taoist Master Lianxi shook his head: "There is no other way. This is fate. It is fate that wants him to die."
Xie Chi: "Fuck destiny."
Xie Chi hated the feeling of powerlessness that he couldn't decide anything, and he hated words like luck and destiny.
He was doing his best to save people and didn't care too much about the outcome.
If he had the ability, why didn't he save her? What seemed impossible to others was just a piece of cake for him.
To be honest, he never took Yan Jing seriously. Yan Jing just followed him and protected the weak just out of casualness and convenience. However, he did not expect that Yan Jing had given him so much trust and dependence imperceptibly, which made him feel that he would be unworthy of his trust if he did not save the person.
Because Xie Chi has always been relying on his brother, he knows how wonderful it feels to have someone to rely on. He doesn't want to disappoint Yan Jing. Even though he doesn't have to bear this responsibility, he wants to do his best to return his dependence.
What's more, this stinky old man keeps talking about the fate he hates the most all day long.
Xie Chi sneered. If he really believed in destiny, would he come here?
"I don't believe this. I said I would rescue this man, so I will. Old man, do you have any solution? Stop talking nonsense to me." Xie Chi sneered.
Taoist Master Lianxi shuddered subconsciously, and when he came he secretly wondered why he was always scared by a young man whose hair had not even grown out yet.
Taoist Master Lianxi
He was about to continue speaking, but when he received Xie Chi's cold gaze, he instantly fell silent: "I... I won't say those two words anymore."
He is old and in poor health, so he cannot beat this man.
Lu Wen, who was squatting by the pit, suddenly said, "Master, come here quickly!"
Taoist Master Lianxi and Xie Chi, who were talking nearby, went over immediately. In the pit, the cracks on Yan Jing's face had spread to his neck, and his entire head was in danger of breaking at any time.
Lu Wen looked at Taoist Lianxi with red eyes.
Taoist Master Lianxi shook his head repeatedly, unable to bear to watch: "Don't look at me, I really can't do anything."
Xie Chi was extremely annoyed. Everything that was happening before his eyes went against what he had always believed.
He felt that as long as people wanted to do something, they would be able to do it by any means necessary, but the ever-spreading cracks told him that people seemed to be manipulated by rules and fate.
He squatted down and his fingers accidentally touched Yan Jing's arm.
Xie Chigang thought to himself, forget it, and prepared to go to Zhao's house with Lu Wen, but the next second the APP suddenly rang.
Xie Chi took a casual glance and was stunned.
[Your strong desire triggers the lucky buff. ]
Before Xie Chi could come to his senses, Lu Wen pulled Xie Chi's sleeve and shouted in ecstasy: "Brother Xie! The cracks are recovering! Look!!"
Taoist Master Lianxi couldn't believe what he saw.
The bloody man who was almost in pieces was recovering visibly. The long cracks gradually became smaller and then disappeared bit by bit. The boy's blood was absorbed in the process. In just a few minutes, Yan Jing's face was clean, but the wrinkles unique to zombies appeared more and more.
Feeling Yan Jing's momentum rising, Taoist Lianxi was shocked. He quickly picked up the shovel beside him and started shoveling wildly at the position of Yan Jing's hand.
The next second, Yan Jing's hands covered with blue-green nails appeared in front of the three people.
Xie Chi's pupils shrank.
Taoist Master Lianxi took a few steps back suddenly, his eyes wide open, gasping for breath, his chest heaving violently.
"It worked! It actually worked!" Taoist Master Lianxi was so excited that tears came out of his eyes. He was over seventy years old, and he actually saw a living zombie, and it was one that he made with his own hands. He had been mediocre in his life, and being able to make a living zombie, he could say that he had no regrets in his death.
The miracle happened before his eyes, and Lu Wen was so excited that he couldn't help himself: "Mirror, you are so awesome!"
…
[It’s not the blind man who’s awesome, it’s the big guy who’s awesome. I saw it, the big guy’s phone just lit up, without the big guy the blind man would have died long ago.]
[The boss is really a noble person!! I also want to have such a noble person in my life. 】
【Lucky Buff? ? 】
[Wait, the new person who got the lucky item before? ? ]
[Fuck, it can’t be him? ? ]
[Is he really a newcomer? ? Didn’t that newcomer just pass one film? ? ]
【Oh my god!!! I’m following it!!!】
[It actually worked!! This is the first time I’ve seen a real zombie in a horror movie! ]
[Which one do you think is better, this thing or the one from Madam Zhao's house? ]
[I don't know. This is my first time seeing one. I have no idea what a living zombie is, so it's hard to compare. I'm really looking forward to it!]
[Even the authorities can’t stop the boss, he’s too powerful. ]
…
Xie Chi smiled, he won.
The Buff he had previously belittled was actually quite useful.
Taoist Master Lianxi said that Yan Jing was just unlucky and the buff came just in time to make up for it.
In the earth pit, Yan Jing's eyelids began to twitch slightly, and Taoist Master Lianxi was ecstatic: "He is waking up!"
He looked at Xie Chi and urged loudly: "Hurry up and put the blood on his forehead!"
Xie Chi didn't hesitate much. He picked up the peach wood sword that Lu Wen was leaning on the stool and gently drew it against his index finger.
A slight stinging sensation spread, and blood beads suddenly gathered. Xie Chi walked closer to the pit, leaned over and pressed the blood on Yan Jing's forehead.
The next second, Yan Jing opened his eyes. In his black and white pupils, there was a dark aura of death, without a trace of humanity.
Taoist Master Lianxi's heart instantly rose in fear, fearing that Yan Jing's intelligence would be destroyed during the refining process and that he would become a powerful killing corpse.
He had already clenched his peach wood sword and Bagua, ready to fight and die at any time, but Yan Jing in the pit suddenly jumped up, shook off the dirt on his body, and jumped in front of Xie Chi, as if preparing to hug him.
Xie Chi reacted quickly and pulled a stool to block him, thus protecting himself from the smell of soil and boy's blood.
Yan Jing had no choice but to pounce on Lu Wen. He seemed a little uncomfortable with it and he couldn't control the strength of the pounce, knocking Lu Wen to the ground.
Lu Wen: “…”
Xie Chi held his forehead, secretly congratulating himself on his wit, and asked lazily: "Can you see it?"
Yan Jing quickly got up and gave Lu Wen a particularly terrifying smile, as if he wanted to express his apology.
Lu Wen got up, sniffed himself, and said with a stiff expression: "...It's okay."
Yan Jing looked at Xie Chi, as if he wanted to answer his question, but when he opened his mouth, the sound he made was very strange.
"!￥@%￥……&!" Yan Jing was stunned for two seconds, and apparently realized that he was speaking zombie language. He looked frightened and anxious, and his speech speed became faster, and his eyes were instantly filled with tears.
Taoist Master Lianxi and Lu Wen looked at each other in bewilderment. They had both forgotten that although living zombies were made from living people, after being made, they were subordinate to zombies and spoke the zombie language.
Although we can communicate through facial expressions due to language barriers, it is also very troublesome.
Lu Wen said with a bitter face: "Master, what should we do..."
Taoist Priest Lianxi: "I can't do anything either—"
Before he finished speaking, he saw Xie Chi walk up to Yan Jing, holding his forehead and said, "Speak slowly, I can understand you. If you speak too fast, I won't understand you."
Yan Jing was stunned for a few seconds, and his shock turned into joy in an instant.
Taoist Master Lianxi widened his eyes.
Lu Wen was stunned, his face full of shock: "Didn't you say you only learned a few sentences that you would use?"
"I still had plenty of time left after finishing my studies, so I learned a little more." Xie Chi answered perfunctorily.
[Boss: I look very average.]
[Boss: It’s not that complicated. I only learned a few key sentences.]
[We are stupid if we take the boss's modesty seriously. 】
Xie Chi and Yan Jing chatted for a while, while Taoist Lianxi and Lu Wen stood by, dumbfounded.
Finally, Yan Jing stopped and stood aside with an expectant look on his face.
Lu Wen and Taoist Master Lianxi came over quickly: "What did he say?"
Xie Chi explained: "He first expressed his joy, gratitude, and excitement, and then told me how to control him; he said that he couldn't see, but his sense of smell was very sensitive, which could completely replace his eyesight, so we didn't have to worry about him anymore; he said that he was not afraid of light, but he would still feel uncomfortable when exposed to it, and that he could just wear a piece of clothing to cover his face, and asked us to borrow some clothes; he said that he felt that he was very strong."
Xie Chi paused and said awkwardly: "If I translated it correctly, he should have said that he thinks he is stronger than the Hulk."
Lu Wen: “…”
Xie Chi: "I asked him who he thought was stronger, you or the Boss zombie with a human soul. He said he didn't know because he had never fought him, but he was not necessarily weaker than him. Then he expressed his eagerness to try."
Xie Chi glanced at Yan Jing, asking with his eyes if he had said anything wrong.
Yan Jing nodded with satisfaction. His brother Xie was so powerful.
Lu Wen glanced at Yan Jing, who was in tattered clothes and covered in dirt, and took off his Taoist robe and stuffed it into his hand. Xie Chi was thin, and the Taoist robe given by APP was small. If Yan Jing covered his face with it, the length would definitely be enough, but it would definitely be very cramped and funny. His own robe was more spacious.
Yan Jing started speaking zombie language again.
Xie Chi translated on the side: "He said thank you, Brother Lu, and..."
Xie Chi had a strange expression on his face. "He said his fangs had just grown out and they were really itchy. He couldn't stand the itch anymore and wanted to bite anyone he saw. Could you lend me your shoulder to rub his fangs? He won't bite you."
Lu Wen was stunned, looking at Xie Chi with a look of despair: "...Why don't I rub against you?"
Xie Chi spread his hands: "He said he was afraid of hurting me. You are thick-skinned."
Lu Wen: “…”
Yan Jing didn't expect Xie Chi to translate it directly. He jumped in panic and seemed to blush. He secretly blamed Xie Chi for being unfair with his eyes.
Lu Wen sighed, and was about to accept his fate and go over to rub his teeth, but Xie Chi thought of Yue Xiuming, looked at Yan Jing, and smiled with an ambiguous smile: "I'll find someone to rub your teeth for you, you can rub or bite it as you like, just don't kill him."
