Chapter 037 Zombie Lover (20)
At three o'clock in the morning, after escaping from Zhao's house, Yue Xiuming ran all the way. Due to the sudden rainstorm, the road was empty.
It was pitch black all around. Yue Xiuming suddenly braked, his face pale. There was a dead end ahead!
He turned his head and looked behind him. There seemed to be something hidden in the darkness. His pupils shrank and his hair stood on end.
Yue Xiuming wiped the rain off his eyelashes with his hand, and bravely looked intently into the darkness. After a few seconds, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that he was not caught up.
He gritted his teeth and returned the same way he came, entering a quiet alley. Seeing a dilapidated wooden house next to him with its door open, he thought for a moment, then stepped sideways and went in, gently closing the door.
Leaning against the cold wall, Yue Xiuming was finally able to breathe deeply. Every pore on his body was clamoring to absorb the air. Beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down continuously. Yue Xiuming was still in shock.
Three days ago, after escaping from the Ladies' Building during the chaos, he wandered around the streets in a daze for half a day and finally made up his mind to go to the Zhao family to find out what was going on.
He had no choice.
The last time he kidnapped Yan Jing he was forced to do so, which could be considered understandable, and Xie Chi might not let him go, but this time it was completely different.
Yue Xiuming himself knew very well that although Yan Jing was killed by Xing Bai, he would never have died if he had not pushed him. Moreover, Xie Chi was so smart, and he was too panicked at the time, with many flaws. Xie Chi must have figured out the whole story at the first time.
If he stayed in the Ladies' Building, it would be a dead end. Even such a powerful person like Zhou Tong was tortured to death by Xie Chi, let alone him. Although he was arrogant, he knew that he could not compare with Zhou Tong.
So he was really fighting alone this time. Being discovered by Xie Chi and Lu Wen was a dead end. Going to Zhao's house, if he could find out the plot, he could leave early and maybe there would be a glimmer of hope.
Yue Xiuming thought that he had to take risks to achieve wealth and fame, so he finally sneaked into the Zhao family. He knocked out a servant, stripped him of his clothes, pushed him into an abandoned well, covered the well cover, put on his clothes himself, and then bought disguise props in the APP store, completely transforming himself into that inconspicuous servant.
On the first day, he was not discovered. That night, he pretended to sweep the floor and suddenly heard Lady Zhao's voice, so he hid himself immediately.
He watched as Lady Zhao led a few Taoist priests into the place where the coffins were placed. Lady Zhao was holding a lamp in her hand. Yue Xiuming had filmed zombie movies before and knew that it was a soul-locking lamp.
Tonight is the seventh night since the death of Madam Zhao's husband. Her husband's soul has returned. These Taoists must have used a special method to put the soul of Madam Zhao and her husband into the soul-locking lamp.
Then what were they doing at the place where the bronze-horned golden coffin was placed...?
Yue Xiuming immediately thought of using zombies to revive the dead.
Yue Xiuming's heart suddenly rose to his throat. He felt both afraid and happy. He was afraid that the Boss zombie would be released, but he was happy because if he ruined Lady Zhao's plan to use zombies to return human souls, the movie would be over.
The plan could be easily ruined; he only had to sneak in and smash the Soul-Locking Lamp.
Yue Xiuming thought so, took a few deep breaths, crouched down, and moved closer to that side along the edge of the wall.
A voice was heard from inside the room: "Young Madam is very courageous. Today's situation is rare in recent years. The young master's soul entering the zombie world will surely succeed. There won't be any mistakes."
"Excuse me, everyone. Should we start now?"
"Wait a little longer, there is still more than an hour..."
Yue Xiuming had already reached the window sill and was about to look inside when a dark shadow suddenly appeared on the blurry window glass!
The dark shadow is behind him!
Someone is approaching behind him!
Yue Xiuming's heart suddenly stopped and his eyes were bloodshot. He squatted down suddenly and turned his head mechanically and slowly.
He was just a handsome boy.
Yue Xiuming breathed a sigh of relief, immediately went over to cover his mouth, whispered in his ear, and lied to explain his actions.
The servant winked at him, indicating that he would not make any noise. The two of them squatted under the window sill, and the servant began to ask him, "What does Madam Zhao want to do?"
It was clearly a man's voice, but it had a hint of feminine charm, something so strange that it made Yue Xiuming feel a little creepy.
Yue Xiuming looked carefully and saw a hint of charm in the boy's eyes.
Yue Xiuming felt something was wrong and was about to run away to save his life, but the boy's eyes suddenly began to glow red, a strange and dazzling red light.
Yue Xiuming answered the servant's question in an inexplicable way: "Madam Zhao wants to dig out the zombie's low-intelligence soul and let her husband's human soul live in it."
There was a flash of rage in the servant's eyes, and the next second, his handsome face turned into a crooked fox head!
It's a vixen! She sneaked in too!
Yue Xiuming was shaking uncontrollably, his adrenaline rushing through his body. He wanted to escape, but he couldn't move. He could only watch as the fox's claws reached towards him little by little.
Yue Xiuming thought he was going to die, and closed his eyes unwillingly and hopelessly. The next second, his cell phone suddenly rang.
[It is detected that the known information of actor Xie Chi has reached the standard. Due to the needs of the plot, the time method is activated and the time is immediately entered three days later.]
Yue Xiuming found that he could move. He opened his eyes suddenly, but the vixen in front of him had disappeared. He was squatting alone under the window.
Yue Xiuming has a good agent who knows the protection mechanism of Time Dafa. Once Time Dafa is activated on the APP, in order to prevent the actors from being accidentally killed during the Time Dafa process, no one will discover the existence of the actors during the Time Dafa process, only time will be transferred.
In other words, only when he started to move did everything return to normal and officially enter three days later.
Yue Xiuming quickly glanced inside the room where the coffin was originally placed. The coffin was opened, the zombie inside was gone, and the soul-locking lamp was also on.
It seems that Madam Zhao has completed her long-planned plan of using zombies to return human souls, but no one knows what happened to the fox spirit and the whereabouts of the zombies are unknown.
There were rustling sounds of footsteps not far away. Yue Xiuming was so scared that his face turned pale. He immediately took a shortcut to escape from the house.
At this moment, the powerful Boss Zombie has merged with the human soul and possessed human wisdom. He is no longer his match, so he has to escape.
Hearing voices nearby, Yue Xiuming dodged and hid in the house. He was so panicked that he bumped into something with a bang and fell heavily. When he looked up, he saw a pitch-black coffin in front of him.
There were no nails on the coffin lid, but he actually managed to force it open with his collision.
Yue Xiuming thought there were zombies inside. He was so scared that his soul left his body and his legs went limp. He finally got up and took a look inside, then he breathed a sigh of relief.
Inside was a young man who showed no signs of becoming a corpse. His body was covered in greasy wax, but it still couldn't hide his haggard appearance. He was as thin as a stick of firewood and lay quietly in the coffin, looking like a skeleton.
Fortunately, it was just a corpse. Yue Xiuming cursed softly and felt better. He was not far from the gate of the mansion. Just as he was about to slip out, a light bulb suddenly lit up in his head and he immediately understood the identity of the person in the coffin - Lady Zhao's husband.
For the sake of exploring the plot, Yue Xiuming hesitated for a moment, but still pushed open the coffin and looked at the corpse carefully. Under the wax, the skin of the corpse was faintly black, and it seemed that something was wrong. Yue Xiuming opened the mouth of the corpse with trembling hands, and suddenly stared at the scene in front of him.
The tongue in the corpse's mouth had completely rotted away, the oral cavity was black and smelled terrible.
It seems that Madam Zhao's husband was... poisoned to death.
Yue Xiuming suddenly remembered the deadline mentioned by Taoist Xuancheng. Madam Zhao gave them nine days to deliver the coffin, but her husband died halfway through the coffin transportation. Although her husband was suffering from tuberculosis, the time of his death was too coincidental.
He was wondering at the time, but now he understood everything. Lady Zhao had taken a gamble and killed her husband with her own hands according to the deadline. She couldn't wait to change her husband's body. She had completely lost her patience in the long process. It happened that that day was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and the success rate was extremely high. If she missed it, she would have to wait for many more years. Moreover, Lady Zhao's husband might die of tuberculosis before waiting for the next opportunity. Lady Zhao loved her husband deeply and would never allow such a thing to happen.
The phone did not ring, but Yue Xiuming was very sure that he had gained the plot exploration point. He was slightly proud and was about to escape from the house as planned, but when he turned around, he saw a pair of feet.
The pair of feet were wearing beautiful new embroidered shoes, which looked festive and beautiful. Yue Xiuming widened his eyes and looked up from the feet with a stiff expression. What he saw was a smiling face.
Madam Zhao!
She came in without anyone noticing, without making any noise!
Although she was obviously a weak woman, Yue Xiuming felt a fear deep in his bones for some reason, as if if he stayed for one more second, he would die without a burial place.
Yue Xiuming started running, but when he turned around, he found that Madam Zhao was running faster than him. When she was about to catch up with him, several servants suddenly appeared at the end of the road. Madam Zhao behind him caught a glimpse of them and immediately slowed down her pace, becoming the delicate young lady she used to be.
Yue Xiuming took the opportunity to run away from the house.
…
The abandoned house was silent, Yue Xiuming could only hear his own thunderous heartbeat. It was raining heavily outside, and the dusty windows were gradually washed clean by the rain. Yue Xiuming's sixth sense kicked in, and he slowly turned his head and saw a pair of bright eyes!
The eyeball of that eye rolled back and forth. Her face was blurry, and her eyes looked even more sinister and frightening.
Madam Zhao had her face pressed against the window, peering into the room. The more Xiuming pressed himself against the wall, the more he pressed himself into it.
Finally, Madam Zhao left.
Just as Yue Xiuming was about to collapse to the ground and gasp for breath, he looked up and found that Madam Zhao had appeared in the room and gave him a gentle smile.
"I found you." said Madam Zhao.
Yue Xiuming broke the window and ran, running in the heavy rain. At the end of the road, he saw Xie Chi holding an umbrella. His eyes flashed with ecstasy and he ran towards him: "Help!"
No matter how afraid he was of Xie Chi, Xie Chi could not kill him immediately. After all, an actor cannot kill an actor. However, Madam Zhao behind him could take his life in an instant.
There are a lot of people here, they will definitely help him, and then he will survive.
Xie Chi paused, looked at Yue Xiuming who was running in the alley, and curled the corners of his lips slightly.
Yue Xiuming was ecstatic and excited to the point of tears. Was Xie Chi waiting for him?
Yes, he had the information, and Xie Chi must have wanted this information, so he was waiting for him.
Yue Xiuming walked closer and realized something was wrong.
Lu Wen was holding an umbrella alone, and Xie Chi had his hands hanging naturally, looking at him leisurely. There was a short man next to him holding an umbrella for him.
Yue Xiuming was puzzled, who is this?
In the night, Xie Chi's face was cold and pale, and his whole body seemed to be glowing. The man next to him was hidden in the darkness, his entire face was covered, and not a single trace of his appearance was revealed.
Yan Jing?
impossible.
Yue Xiuming immediately denied this answer.
He knew how badly Yan Jing was injured. Even if he could hold on for a few hours, he would surely die. He was injured by the puppet, and no medicine could cure him.
But why is there one more person?
The thought flashed through his mind quickly, and Yue Xiuming had already run to the alley entrance. He put on a flattering smile: "Lu Wen, thank you, thank you Chi..."
Xie Chi suddenly smiled at him: "I found you."
This sentence was exactly the same as what Madam Zhao said a minute ago, and it instantly brought back Yue Xiuming's horrifying memories. He felt his scalp tingling and his whole body cold.
"You...what do you want me to do?" Yue Xiuming said stiffly.
"Of course I need you." Xie Chi smiled gently.
Yue Xiuming breathed a sigh of relief and continued to approach: "I did find something. Let me tell you, can the previous grudges be written off?"
Xie Chi said nothing, but just smiled at him. His clear and peaceful eyes seemed to be encouraging him and guiding him step by step.
Yue Xiuming thought he had agreed, and with a look of joy on his face, he quickly approached and said as he walked, "Madam Zhao's husband was poisoned to death by Madam Zhao. Madam Zhao--"
Yue Xiuming saw Xie Chi suddenly raise his hand, and that hand was emitting a lustrous luster in the dark night.
On his slender index finger was a golden ring with a bell of beautiful size on it.
With a "ding-ling" sound, Xie Chi rang the bell. The sound of the bell was clear and pleasant.
A few more sounds.
"You...what are you doing?" Yue Xiuming's face was full of confusion, and fear unconsciously revealed in his eyes.
Xie Chi was full of unknowns.
The next second, without any warning, the dark shadow next to Xie Chi pounced towards him. In a flash, he was knocked to the ground, and the back of his head hit the ground heavily.
The dark shadow pinched his chin, forcing him to look up, revealing his vulnerable neck.
This scene was too familiar. Yue Xiuming froze on the ground and his brain stopped thinking.
The next second, the black shadow lowered its head, and its sharp fangs pierced the right side of his neck.
Yue Xiuming's blood froze, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
Zombies!!
There were still shallow marks on the left side of Yue Xiuming's neck from Zhou Tong's bite.
The Taoist robe on the man's head was slightly lifted, revealing his fangs dripping with blood, a pair of lifeless black and white eyes and a familiar face.
Yan Jing!!!
Yue Xiuming was so scared that he pissed his pants and his will to survive reached its peak. Just as he was about to get up and run away, wrinkles appeared on his face in an instant, his blue-green nails grew wildly, and his long fangs pierced his upper and lower lips, bleeding profusely.
Yue Xiuming turned into a zombie in an instant!
Xie Chi didn't expect him to be so vicious.
Yan Jing got up, looking frightened, with a dull expression: "@...￥#*@!"
Lu Wen looked at Xie Chi with a bewildered expression.
Xie Chi sneered and translated: "Fuck! I'm more poisonous than biological weapons! I just wanted to rub against you and gently bite you. I don't know why I bit you so hard. I'm sorry. Ignorance is not a sin."
Lu Wen's whole body stiffened instantly, and he felt a wave of fear in his heart. If Yan Jing had rubbed him just now, and if Yan Jing had lost control and bit his skin, Xie Chi wouldn't even have time to rescue him.
Yan Jing looked like he had done something wrong and walked up to Xie Chi with a wronged look on his face.
Xie Chi pressed the small bell and glanced at him calmly: "Well done."
Yan Jing bared his four fangs in an instant and gave Xie Chi a fawning and terrifying smile.
Lu Wen looked at the scene in front of him and turned his head away secretly, but the image of "Pavlov training the dog" lingered in his mind.
[Hahahaha, the contrast of the little blind man is huge, so cute.]
[Did the little blind man bite me on purpose? Is he scheming? He said it wasn’t intentional after biting me, which really makes me angry, hahahaha. ]
[Tsk, you guys are so stupid, didn't you see how many times the boss shook his phone? ]
[Fuck!!! The boss is…!!! It’s so scary!! My scalp is tingling.]
[Which one is scarier, the boss or Lady Zhao?]
[It is indeed a zombie movie where good deeds will be rewarded and evil deeds will be punished. The movie is just leading Yue Xiuming to run into the big guys, otherwise Madam Zhao would have killed Yue Xiuming long ago. ]
[Fuck, is this movie encouraging the little blind man to take revenge himself? ]
【if not.】
Yan Jing's zombie aura was too strong, and the low-level zombie Yue Xiuming was scared away.
In the alley, a pair of eye-catching red embroidered shoes suddenly appeared.
Madam Zhao, holding an umbrella, slowly appeared in the two men's sight, as they froze.
Lu Wen immediately took out the exquisite gossip that Xie Chi asked him to take, and looked at Madam Zhao. Seeing the clear face in the mirror, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "She is not a ghost or a monster, she is——"
Just as Lu Wen was about to say it was a human, Xie Chi lazily lifted his eyelids, looked at Madam Zhao who was approaching little by little, and nonchalantly corrected him: "It's a puppet."
