The brainwaves did not transmit manic and violent emotions, but rather rare and beautiful waves.

It's just like an ordinary mother singing a lullaby to her child.

In this rare moment of beauty belonging to the zombie mother, the zombie baby slowly calmed down, nestled in her arms like an ordinary baby.

Even the fiercest and most ferocious wild beasts are gentle with their own cubs.

Even zombies.

...

After Bai Xizhu and the others left the park, they did not discuss the female zombie anymore.

Just like when he arrived, he would say a word or two every now and then.

I rested at the edge of the park at noon, and Leng Yebai's beloved bicycle was still there.

They ate roasted rabbit, which was hunted by the base chief and Leng Yebai. They simply found a big tree and started grilling it.

The grayish rabbit looked similar to the rabbits killed by the mutated willow tree in the park; they might even be from the same litter.

Rabbits have a high reproductive capacity; a pair of rabbits can produce an astonishing number of offspring given enough time.

Even if the zombie mother and daughter don't come out and stay in the very center of the park, they probably won't go hungry.

The tender rabbit meat, brushed with honey, immediately released its aroma that wafted far and wide.

Every now and then, zombies would spot Bai Xizhu and her group and pounce on them, but the base leader and Leng Yebai would take care of them, and in the process, they would also earn a few crystal cores.

"It smells so good!"

The base commander took a deep breath, and the frustration he had just felt vanished the moment he smelled the delicious rabbit meat.

The base commander wasn't a particularly petty person; he was relatively generous. Even though he had just seen the mother and daughter zombies and thought about the human condition, and then about the lady, he wouldn't spoil their mood when it was time to be generous.

What he fears most is bringing bad emotions to his son and daughter-in-law.

He just hoped they could live happily ever after.

"Master, can I eat a whole one later?"

Taotie stared at the roasted rabbit in Leng Yebai's hand, its mouth watering uncontrollably.

"Can't."

Bai Xizhu shook her head.

"Oh." Taotie lowered its head in disappointment. "Can I eat half of it? I actually have a very small appetite!"

"You can eat two!"

Bai Xizhu boldly held up two fingers.

Since she doesn't often take the Taotie out, she naturally can't mistreat them. If the rabbits she hunts aren't enough to eat, she has many more in her space, more than enough for the Taotie to eat!

"Yay! Master is truly the best master in the world!"

Taotie happily lay on the ground, its eyes fixed on the roasted rabbit in Leng Yebai's hand.

The rabbit was hunted by the base chief and Leng Yebai; they cleaned it; and Leng Yebai roasted it…

It has absolutely nothing to do with Bai Xizhu.

Taotie, however, said that Bai Xizhu was the best master.

The key point is that neither Leng Yebai nor the base commander sensed anything was wrong!

As expected, there weren't enough rabbits to go around. The base chief could eat two by himself, which was equivalent to the Taotie's appetite of eating only a fraction of its fullness!

Finally, Bai Xizhu took out several more rabbits from her spatial storage and grilled them. By the end of the meal, the area around them was incredibly lively.

Various mutated animals and zombies roared at them, drawn by the fragrance!

So the base commander was busy gnawing on meat while dealing with the zombies and mutated animals that kept popping up around him!

It's only because they have powerful superpowers that they dare to do this; if it were anyone else, they would have been killed long ago for courting death like that!

"Burp~ I'm full!"

The base commander burped and patted his stomach with satisfaction.

My son can eat until he's stuffed, even if it's just straw!

"Hurry up and run after you've eaten! It'll be too late if you don't run now!"

Leng Yebai left a message, then got on his most treasured bicycle and rode with Bai Xizhu towards the safe base.

Several beasts were too tired to move, so Bai Xizhu put them into her spatial storage.

The base commander watched Leng Yebai's retreating figure as he rode his bicycle, blinked, and then glanced back at him.

My scalp is tingling.

A horde of zombies rushed toward him from behind, numbering over a hundred.

Even with his powerful abilities, seeing a bunch of rotting zombies after just having eaten still made the base chief feel... nauseous and want to vomit.

"What a misfortune for our family!"

The base commander shook his head slightly, not bothering to use his special abilities to kill the zombies behind him. He strode after Leng Yebai's bicycle, saying with a "heartbroken" expression,

"You unfilial son! You've married a wife and forgotten your father, leaving your old father alone to run around on the ground, chased by zombies. You're truly unfilial!"

It has to be said that the base commander, who usually seems serious, is actually quite the actor; when he gets into acting, he starts putting on a show.

He could have easily killed the horde of zombies behind him with just a flick of his finger.

Why do they let themselves be chased by others, and even act out the drama!

Bai Xizhu's lips twitched. Looking at the base chief's "terrified" expression, she felt that it was a waste for the base chief not to be an actor.

However, Leng Yebai wasn't one to act like that, so he could only watch the pitiful base commander put on a show!

"Ha! You abandoned your wife and children to go find a mistress, and now you come here asking me to take care of you in your old age and see you off in your final days. You even want me to save you? Dream on! Go feed the zombies!"

A cold voice came from the aloof person.

Bai Xizhu rubbed her eyes, glanced around, and confirmed that there were only two living people around: Leng Yebai and the base leader!

"Son, don't go! Your father is absolutely innocent. There was no mistress! There was only a fifth one, but it was a dog!"

"Heh! I don't believe it!"
