A bizarre zombie power struggle has begun.

Cheng Shuang, taking advantage of her height, stayed away from the zombies' sense of smell, crouched down and hid in the zombie horde. She watched as Qiu Sheng flashed his gold teeth and unusually long fingernails, instantly forcing the fanged zombie leader to retreat.

The zombie leader challenged Wencai again, but Wencai revealed two large, curved teeth that were as long as a hand, completely defeating the zombie leader and causing all the zombies to bow to him in submission.

If Cheng Shuang hadn't understood before, now that she'd had some contact with zombies, she knew perfectly well that their bodies were stiff and lifeless. The reason they hopped around was because their waists and legs couldn't bend, making bowing extremely difficult for them. This clearly demonstrated the unparalleled status of zombie leaders with their sharp teeth and long armor.

Even the 'beauty' among the zombies couldn't resist abandoning the original leader and sticking close to Wencai.

The little girl exclaimed inwardly, wondering where the two brothers had hidden these odds and ends. She hadn't seen them carrying any packages either. Could it be that the spatial grid wasn't a privilege of the Gate of Reincarnation?

While she was lost in thought, Wencai and the zombie woman went into the small dark room. A little while later, he came out carrying a bag of tooth powder, pulled Cheng Shuang up, and gave Qiusheng a wink, signaling that it was time to retreat.

However, whether intentionally or unintentionally, these zombies were so engrossed in enjoying the 'food' on the table that they pushed it from side to side, occasionally blocking the doorway in front of them.

Cheng Shuang tugged at Wen Cai, signaling him to look back.

Wen Cai had a bad feeling. He turned around and saw the zombie woman jump out.

The truth is about to be revealed.

Before the female zombie could howl and report the news, Cheng Shuang kicked it back. She thought that her strength was nothing to a zombie, so she used all her strength. Who knew that this zombie was very weak and was kicked over by her with one kick, breaking a wooden chair in the process.

All the zombies turned around, and Wen Cai hurriedly bared his big curved teeth and pretended to be fierce.

The zombies dared not disobey the zombie leader's will, and even knowing that something was about to happen, they still dawdled and continued to gnaw on their 'delicious food'.

Qiu Sheng pulled Cheng Shuangchong and Wen Cai towards the second floor.

The three of them quietly went upstairs. Cheng Shuang was actually a little reluctant to give up her experience of beating or being beaten by zombies, but she wasn't the kind of person who didn't know her own strength. There were too many zombies here, and the three of them couldn't handle them.

However, just then, a mechanical beep sounded: 'Side Quest: Obtain the braids of ten zombies. Quest Time: Two hours.'

Cheng Shuang was stunned.

Even those without common sense know that hair was extremely important to the ancients; otherwise, the saying "our bodies and hair are given to us by our parents" would not have come about.

It wasn't difficult to get her to cut off the zombie's braid; the real challenge was getting her to join the fray in a massive attack.

Moreover, Cheng Shuang noticed that compared to the zombie in the Long Clan Ancestral Hall, the zombies here were clearly more intelligent; they were no longer mindlessly hunting, but communicating and cooperating with each other.

She feared that if she really cut off her braid, she would be completely unable to escape.

This is a side quest; I don't know if there will be any penalties if I abandon it.

"What are you daydreaming about!" Qiu Sheng shoved her, and Cheng Shuang didn't dare to delay, so she quickened her pace.

We'll see how things go; it's not a good time to stay.

Just as the three reached the top of the stairs, the zombie woman in the dark room hopped out, howling and pointing anxiously towards the second floor.

The zombies sensed something was wrong. Their former leader jumped over and saw that the female zombie's mouth was full of blood and she had no teeth left. He immediately realized that they had been tricked and roared.

"Run!" Qiu Sheng shouted.

The three of them ran quickly up the stairs, and the zombies chased after them with a rumble. They jumped very fast and caught up with Wencai, who had short legs, in no time.

Compared to Cheng Shuang, whose legs are even shorter, Wen Cai clearly lacked a lot of escape experience, which is why he was left behind.

Qiu Sheng was skilled enough to take on four or five opponents, but Wen Cai was not, and he was instantly surrounded.

Cheng Shuang started off clumsy, especially when her fists hit the hard, unyielding zombie bodies, turning bright red immediately. She had learned to tolerate pain, but that didn't mean her body wouldn't instinctively flinch. So most of the time, she focused on dodging.

Her petite stature gave her a natural advantage in hiding, allowing her to easily slip under the zombies' arms. Gradually, her attacks became increasingly swift and precise.

As the fight progressed, the little girl got smarter and started picking up broken chair legs from the ground, aiming them specifically at the zombies' knees.

A zombie is, first of all, a zombie. It's impossible for it to bend, but if you hit it hard at the third of its body, its body will immediately lean backward and fall down.

It was too strenuous, and Cheng Shuang was exhausted after only fighting two.

The little girl carried Luo An out and whispered a few words to him.

The ghost doll was fast. It took some blood from the table and used it to distract the zombies surrounding Cheng Shuang with its bloody aura. It threw the blood-stained rag into a corner of the room and cut off their braids the moment the zombies pounced on it.

Ten pills were obtained, and a mechanical voice sounded, "50 points have been credited to your account. E-level mission, reward: one red, one white, one blue, and one green pill."

Cheng Shuang took out the bag, scooped it up without even touching it, and put the braid directly into the space compartment to avoid being caught red-handed by the zombies.

The zombies didn't even realize what was happening. When they realized they had pounced on a tattered cloth, they immediately understood that they had been tricked and turned around to pounce on the little girl again, howling.

The little girl smashed the chair legs, and when she heard Wencai's pitiful cries for help, she looked up and saw that Qiusheng had already run to the second floor and was about to break out of the window.

When Qiu Sheng discovered that Wen Cai and Cheng Shuang were still on the first floor and had not followed them, he immediately returned anxiously. He looked at the people scattered in two corners, torn between them, not knowing which one to save.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Shuang was much more capable than Wen Cai. She had initially tried to hone her skills, but now that she was about to become a burden, she took out a rope, with Luo An holding one end and herself holding the other. She quickly tied the surrounding zombies together, temporarily immobilizing them.

She then glanced at the stairs, where there were still many zombies, and chose to climb up from the pillars.

Since I learned to climb trees, climbing pillars has become a piece of cake.

Seeing that Cheng Shuang had escaped danger on her own, Qiu Sheng focused on rescuing Wen Cai.

The three of them burst through the wooden window on the second floor. Qiu Sheng jumped down from the second floor first, and Cheng Shuang, seeing him spread his arms, also jumped down and was caught by him.

Wencai, on the other hand, was pitifully timid. The two of them stood on the ground, looking up and urging him on, until Cheng Shuang shouted, "Brother Wencai, there are zombies behind you!"

Wencai was shocked and jumped down with a cry of "Ouch!"

Qiu Sheng turned around and found a cart piled with hay, took Wen Cai from it, and Cheng Shuang helped hold the cart, pushing Wen Cai directly out of Tengteng Town.

Cheng Shuang kept looking back and saw the group of zombies relentlessly chasing after her.

She thought for a moment and then instructed Luo An to set a fire to prevent the zombies from chasing them out of the city and harming people.

The reason we didn't send Long Zhiyan was because we were afraid that he would act recklessly and lose his sense of proportion, which would not only expose him but also lead to him becoming an arsonist, which would be a huge problem.
