Chapter 326: Military Advisor? Imperial Advisor?
"It's turning, it's turning." Zhu Linlang pointed excitedly at the fan facing her face. The cool breeze took away the heat from her body and stirred the stuffy air.
"Everyone, after killing this wave of zombies, take a rest under the shade of the tree in front. Everyone will get a hat."
"yes!"
The guards became more excited, and they danced their knives more vigorously. They killed all the zombies in front of them, and they wanted to chase the zombies behind them, so as not to force the zombies to say: "You are a zombie, and I am a zombie?!"
No zombies were seen nearby.
Shitou held the knife handle tightly with one hand and clenched his fist with the other hand, then loosened it and clenched it again: "Brother Qi, you said that this place is so remote, isn't it strange that there are so many zombies? It seems that there is something here that attracts them."
Their hands had long been numb from killing zombies at a high intensity, but the wild was full of dangers, so they dared not put down their knives or relax for even a moment.
"How could it not be attractive? We have a bunch of meat and are running to their territory. If we stuff a meat bun into your mouth, will you eat it?" Yao Qi glanced at them as if he was used to it and didn't find anything wrong.
Shitou shook his head without hesitation: "Eat! Who doesn't like meat buns? I want to eat two more."
Find your own reasons to explain why the zombies prefer their team.
Pointing to the protective gear on his elbow, he said, "Fortunately, the military advisor brought us this cardboard. How can paper be so hard? It's amazing! This must be expensive. This is the kind of paper only the nobles can use!"
(This is new material compiled by the author, please don’t take it seriously)
I couldn't help but touch it again and again, cherishing it with great care.
Yao Qi was also shocked. Paper was very valuable in their country. A piece of paper was worth gold. Although it was a bit exaggerated, it was equally valuable to the common people.
A piece of paper is worth more than a grown pig. This is why there are no noble men in poor families. If they can't even afford to buy books, how can they learn to read and write and take part in the selection?
They had never seen such hard paper before, and guessed that it was even more expensive. Now it was used on the lives of such lowly people as them. They were deeply shocked and felt the importance the girls placed on them.
Human life is worthless, especially the life of poor people, which may not even be worth as much as a pig. A servant can be bought with a few taels of silver. Once sold, all ancestors are slaves. Although they look like humans, to their masters, they are items that can be discarded at any time.
Zhu Linlang was willing to use cardboard to protect them, which was equivalent to wearing gold on their bodies in their eyes, especially Yao Qi, who could not forget the scene when the zombie grabbed his arm.
The zombie's nails were about to cut his flesh, infecting him with the virus and turning him into a monster.
“Crack.”
The zombie's nails encountered an obstacle and could not move forward. Yao Qi grabbed it and paused for a moment, then swung his knife and chopped it hard... The zombie's head rolled to the ground.
Yao Qi was breathing heavily, his heart seemed to be about to burst out of his chest, and he started to deal with the next zombie.
Now that he had a moment of safety, he unwrapped the cloth and saw that it had been ripped in three places, leaving only a faint white mark under the cardboard.
"It's light and strong, it's like a magical item!"
Shitou's neighbor is a blacksmith and knows something about armor. The armor of the Qing soldiers is made of leather with iron sheets in some parts, which is very heavy.
One piece of armor weighs nearly 30 kilograms, which is equivalent to carrying a half-grown child on your back at all times, not to mention wearing the armor to kill the enemy. The most terrifying thing is that there are not many materials to make the armor, and only a few soldiers can wear it and use their flesh to block swords on the battlefield.
In the eyes of those in power, human life is not even as valuable as the skin of a prey. Stone couldn't help but snort through his nose.
Compared with Emperor Qingxin, Zhu Linlang, who rescued them from the pile of zombies, gave them food, weapons and defensive equipment, was simply a god who came down to earth. No, the one who was a god who came down to earth was Lin Xinhuan, because it was she who took out the cardboard and the hat that could automatically blow cool air.
Therefore, the people would privately call Lin Xinhuan a military advisor, but they believed that the identity of a national advisor was more suitable for Lin Xinhuan. In the Qing Kingdom, a national advisor was a god who could communicate with the heavens, represent the will of heaven, come to the mortal world to assist the true emperor and protect the heaven and the earth.
On the surface, the emperor is the most respected person, but in fact, the imperial preceptor is independent of the royal family and respected by all the people. Therefore, every imperial preceptor is the confidant of the Emperor of Qing, otherwise his position will be unstable.
The cardboard that can withstand sharp claws and the windmill hat that moves automatically without wind all indicate that Lin Xinhuan is not ordinary. But what does it mean that such a genius is standing behind Zhu Linlang?
The people who came out lined up and each received a hat.
"Be careful, don't touch the windmill with your hands, it will scratch your skin."
Lin Xinhuan saw some people curiously wanting to test the windmill, and reminded them, including the girl Zhu Linlang, that the windmill needs wind to turn, so why can it turn without wind? And can it bring wind?
Just when he was about to touch it, he was touched by Lin Xinhuan. He put down his eager fingers and smiled at Lin Xinhuan foolishly.
"This is a solar fan, which converts the sun's energy into electricity, which then drives the windmill to generate wind energy. This is the power of science."
Science again. This was the second time Zhu Linlang heard it from Lin Xinhuan. What exactly are energy and science? It can do things that only gods can do. It can be said that it is more powerful than gods.
Truly feeling the coolness of the wind, Zhu Linlang puts science before God, but that God is unsurpassed by any existence. Without her, there would be no Zhu family.
"Hurry, hurry, the military advisor said that the bodies should be burned together." With the hat that could block the sun and allow for ventilation, everyone felt that the person had come back to life and regained their spirits.
Chen Daniu urged them to act quickly. He now regarded Lin Xinhuan and Zhu Linlang's words as an imperial decree. These past few days were like a dream.
Leaving the Chen family and his family behind was not as difficult as he had imagined. His daily task was to kill zombies. He could eat well, wear warm clothes, and did not have to listen to curses. It was much easier than his life in the Chen family.
She usually ate wild vegetables and rice soup, but now she can eat meat and rice! Nian Nian's face has become rounder. Thinking back to the way she ate with such a sweet mouthful, Chen Daniu feels that life has hope.
"My wife, if you were still here, our family would be complete." Chen Daniu murmured. If he could take his wife and children away from the Chen family earlier, would the ending be different?
"My dear, I have avenged you. Please protect Nian Nian in the underworld."
He later went back to Chen's house and saw that the door where he had been hiding was broken and a large crack had been created by the zombies. Inside lay the bodies of an old man and a young child. Even though the bodies were incomplete, one could still tell that the old one had tightly protected the young one before he died.
Chen Daniu wondered: Is it so important to have a boy? Isn't it just a little extra flesh down there? If you don't bring him up well, it will only be a disaster.
