The two comforted Xiao Longzhan for a while longer before coaxing the two little ones back to sleep.
After watching over Xiao Longzhan by the bedside for more than an hour and finding that he was sleeping soundly and had not been pulled into Feng Ling's soul world again, Jiang Nian'an got up and left with Shen Nanxing.
"Is there really something going to the flower market, or is it just a pretense?" Jiang Nian'an quietly asked Shen Nanxing after they left the house.
Something really happened.
Shen Nanxing answered her in the same volume, "After we start clearing out the Bi family forces near Beijing in a couple of days, the Bi family forces elsewhere will definitely take action."
We can take this opportunity to investigate their background; perhaps we can find some other clues and then follow them to the location of the Bi family's headquarters.
"good."
Hearing him say that, Jiang Nian'an felt reassured.
"Then we'll have Little Purple and Little Silver come with us, while the King can stay in the container area."
The rest should stay home, just in case.
As Shen Nanxing spoke, he pushed open the study door, and the two entered the study and sat down on the sofa.
“Alright, before we set off, I will raise the strength of Obsidian and the others to level six, and then send a few to the Yun family.”
"Yes, we'll have Xiao Er, Xiao San, and Xiao Ying go to protect the old man. We'll need the old man to take charge before we get back."
Shen Nanxing
"Yes, I'll go talk to them and also help the little eagles improve their strength, so they'll be more dedicated."
After Jiang Nian'an finished speaking, a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes. She turned slightly to the side to discuss with Shen Nanxing, "What about Xiao'an? Should we take her with us?"
I actually didn't want him to come with us on this adventure. If something unexpected happened, not only would we be unable to explain it to the Zombie King, but we also wouldn't be able to accept it.
She paused for a moment, her voice tinged with a helpless wry smile, "But if we don't bring him, he might sneak out to find us, and then things will be even more unpredictable."
"Take it with you!"
After thinking for a moment, Shen Nanxing said, "It's safer to keep him under our noses than to let him sneak out on his own. We can let the fire follow him."
With the two of them around, our trip will go much more smoothly.
"good!"
After agreeing on the terms, the two discussed some more details and then went back to their room to wash up and rest.
The next morning, Shen Nanxing went to see Old Master Shen.
Jiang Nian'an first sent the two little guys back to the training ground, and then went to check on Obsidian and the others.
She was quite satisfied with the progress, as she had consumed more than half of the crystal cores.
Back at the villa, Jiang Nian'an was about to go find Xiao Er and the others when she saw Da Huo sitting on the slide with a bald man she had never seen before, sighing and complaining.
The fire was usually quite aggressive and rarely showed any signs of weakness.
Jiang Nian'an was immediately puzzled. She turned around and walked over quickly.
"Da Huo, what happened to you?"
Jiang Nian'an walked to Da Huo's side, bent down and patted him on the shoulder.
"Sister An'an, I think I'm doomed~"
Da Huo looked up at her, his eyes filled with sorrow, his face full of wrinkles.
"Huh? It's that serious?"
Jiang Nian'an sat down next to him, rested her hand on her face, tilted her head slightly, and asked, "Tell me about it, maybe I can help you solve it!"
"I failed to complete the task Shen Nanxing assigned me!"
Da Huo looked at Jiang Nian'an pitifully, "I've been interrogating him for two days, but he just won't tell the truth!"
The bald man sitting on the other side of him sighed upon hearing this.
Upon hearing the sigh, Da Huo's expression changed, and he turned around and slapped the bald man hard on the head. "It's all your fault, and you still have the nerve to sigh!"
'Roar! Roar! Roar!'
The bald man covered his head and roared at the raging fire.
The voice was filled with frustration and anger, as if it were trying to vent all the dissatisfaction in its heart.
Jiang Nian'an then realized that he was a zombie, not a human.
"How can it not be your fault?"
Despite the bald zombie's rage, Da Huo seemed even angrier than him.
He jumped to his feet, glaring at the bald zombie with rage. "If you had told the truth, wouldn't I have been able to complete the mission?"
'Roar! Roar! Roar!'
The bald zombie covered his head and shrank further into the slide, but the volume of his roars didn't decrease at all; he was a typical coward who was also tough.
"What do you mean by saying that what you said is the truth!"
Da Huo stepped forward, grabbed the bald zombie by the collar, pulled him up, and roared back at an even louder volume, "What you said is not the truth at all!"
"Stop, stop, stop!"
The noise from their argument gave Jiang Nian'an a headache, so she quickly stepped in to stop it.
"Stop arguing, tell me what happened first!"
Jiang Nian'an pointed to the slide, gesturing for them to sit down.
The fire obediently followed orders and sat down in its original spot.
The bald zombie shrank back, not daring to return to his original seat, afraid that the fire would hit him again, and silently sat down in a corner that was relatively far away from them.
Jiang Nian'an glanced at them one by one, then turned to look at the fire. "Speak!"
When facing Jiang Nian'an, Da Huo reverted to his pitiful appearance and tearfully recounted the whole story.
“He insists that he is not a zombie from the Bi family, and he can’t explain why he can’t speak human language, so he must be lying.”
'Roar! Roar! Roar!'
Upon hearing this, the bald zombie finally couldn't help but offer a defense.
Da Huo snorted coldly and turned his head to the other side, clearly not wanting to pay him any attention.
What did he say?
Jiang Nian'an poked the fire and asked him to translate.
