Lu Tianyi looked at him and said, “Are you going to watch him steal her away?”

Lin Feng looked back at him and responded with surprise, “Why do I feel that you’re not on your Chief’s side? Won’t you be happy if he stole one of our people away?”

“That’s not true,” Lu Tianyi raised his head to look at the sky. Of course, he wouldn’t be happy about that! However, he could not tell the others that he didn’t want anyone else to steal his sister who had become a completely different person, as he himself hadn’t gotten close to her yet.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The group of people returned to the hotel. After that, Yuan Tianxing guided Wu Chengyue to Mount Wu. But, when they arrived, they saw no zombies, and only an almost empty field with the soil turned up.

Some sweetcorn plants were standing in the field, surrounded by a series of holes. Next to each hole was a small pile of soil.

Wu Chengyue looked at the field and asked, “What was growing here before? Why are there sweetcorn plants? Isn’t she going to remove them?”

Yuan Tianxing looked around but didn’t see any zombie. He didn’t know where Lin Qiao was either.

“Ah, she said that these sweetcorn plants aren’t infected, so they are edible. She plans to keep them as seeds. Mutated sweet potatoes used to be in these holes. All the mutated sweet potatoes have been dug out and devoured by her with her dark mist,” he answered Wu Chengyue’s question.

Wu Chengyue nodded and said with doubts, “Are you sure you can grow crops in this field? The soil is infected. Healthy plants will be infected by the soil, won’t they?”

Yuan Tianxing shook his head and said, “I’m not so sure either. Miss. Lu said that she’ll be dealing with these problems. We don’t know what she will do.”

Wu Chengyue put Wu Yueling down and held her little hand. Then, he looked at those holes on the ground and said, “I guess she’s planning to use that kind of water.”

Yuan Tianxing nodded and said, “Probably.”

Wu Chengyue looked around again and asked, “Is she here now? Where did she go? She’s not out there catching more zombies, is she?”

Yuan Tianxing had could only respond with, “I don’t know. But, it seems that she’s not here. Let’s head back to the hotel now. I don’t know where exactly she is, so I don’t know where to find her, unless she shows up herself.”

Wu Chengyue had no other choice but to take Wu Yueling back to the hotel.

Wu Yueling wasn’t happy as she didn’t see Lin Qiao. She put her arms around Wu Chengyue’s neck and buried her face in his chest.

Wu Chengyue sensed her emotions, so he laughed, “Be patient! Daddy will find her.”

Back in the hotel, Yuan Tianxing asked him, “How long do you plan to stay? Is it okay if you don’t head back to the base as soon as possible?”

“I’ve already been out for so many days. A couple of more days won’t hurt,” said Wu Chengyue.

He needed to see the female zombie before heading back. He didn’t even know what she looked like now. His memories about her stopped that day they had sex. He clearly remembered the texture of her skin and how she closed her eyes, frowning to endure the pain.

Now, in this place, he really wanted to see her when she was clear-minded. He wondered how she would face him. Judging by the fact that she sneakily left Sea City Base, he understood that she did not want to see him, at least not now.

He wondered how she would react, and what the look on her face would be when she found out that he had come to her new base. Thinking of that, Wu Chengyue’s lips curved deeper in that smile, and even the smiling look in his eyes turned more obvious.

Yuan Tianxing, who was standing aside, looked at him and couldn’t help but remind him, “Chief Wu, you look like a fox which is thinking about its prey.”

Wu Chengyue smiled at him. His narrowed eyes glowed with a bright light as he responded, “Thank you!”

Tianxing didn’t know how what to say.

‘So thick-skinned!’?he thought.

At that time, Wu Chengyue had no idea that he would spend three days waiting for the female zombie, and that the latter would never show up.

In the space, Lin Qiao hadn’t realized that she had spent three days in the water. She stopped absorbing the energy when there was only about ten percent of it left in the nucleus.

In the water, she opened her green eyes and the bright green light shone out, dimming when she blinked.

She glanced at the energy nucleus in her hand, then swung both arms downward to bring herself quickly upward. Soon, she popped up from the water.

She looked around, then swam toward the lakeside.

In the shallow area, she stood up and waved a hand. Following her move, a stream of dark mist was released. The mist surrounded her body like a screen, just like it did before she came down into the lake.

Soon, the mist covered her beautifully shaped body.

She walked out of the water with bare feet, then picked up the clothes on the chair and began putting them on. Sensing her appearance, the zombies in the small spaces all stuck their heads out to look at her.

She put on the loose-fitting trousers and the tight military vest, then sat on the chair, bending over to put on the boots. Her slender, snow-white neck and arms were bared; a few drops of water dripped down from her moist hair.

After dressing herself, she stood up, prepared to exit her space. But suddenly, a series of roars from the zombie dog was heard from a distance away.

“Roar!”

Along with the dog’s howls, a vibration was sensed.

Lin Qiao and the group of zombies in the small spaces all turned to that area, but soon, those zombies quickly drew back deeply into those small spaces.

In a few seconds, a giant snake darted out of the woods, swishing into the grassland. The grasses in that area were about a meter tall.

Following behind the snake was the hairless zombie. It swiftly followed the black snake into the grassland.

Next, Lin Qiao saw the grasses rustling from here to there. The zombie dog which hopped excitedly like a rabbit followed closely behind those swaying grasses.

The zombie dog was able to cover the distance of four to five meters with one leap, and jump about three meters high.

It enjoyed chasing the snake.

“The dog has become a zombie dog, but is still as energetic as ever,” said Lin Qiao.

She walked over; her eyes following the two animals from left to right, then from right to left.

The zombie dog which was happily chasing the snake suddenly spotted Lin Qiao. Thus, it immediately turned around and leaped toward her.

“Owwo!”

With surprise, Lin Qiao watched the dog dart to her, then hop around her.

“I’m surprised that you didn’t eat it when I was in the lake,” she said.

The zombie dog sat on the ground before her, then raised its head to look at her, even though it didn’t know what she was talking about.

Lin Qiao glanced at it, then walked into the grass, toward the area which had rustled earlier but quieted down just now. Soon, she saw the giant snake which was lying weakly among grasses, looked so tired that it didn’t even bother to coil its body.

The snake lay on the ground and spread its huge body which was over ten meters long. Its forked tongue was sticking out, laying softly on grasses.

It only lifted its eyelids to give Lin Qiao a glance when it sensed her coming. After that, it closed its eyes and kept lying there.
