"What do you mean, what should we do?" Lan Yao was a little confused by her family's question.
"Waaah. Of course I'm worried about how you'll get out of this mess, Master! No matter how powerful you are, you're still just an ordinary person."
Waaaaah, the owner seems to be scared, what should we do?
Lan Yao: ...
Hearing this, Lan Yao was both annoyed and amused.
“Panpan, you…”
Before she could finish speaking, the jade Pixiu chuckled and said, "Panpan, you still call me a coward? You don't even know your master's true strength. You're really blind."
Besides, if its owner can't beat them, they can always run away.
Its owner is quite skilled at escaping.
Panpan is so stubborn.
Jade Abacus: "...Shut up."
Jade Pixiu: "Fine. Let this fool of yours see what real strength is."
The jade Pixiu detached from Lan Yao's wrist, transforming into its original form and emitting golden light towards the walking corpses that were slowly approaching them.
Jade Pixiu is a creature that wards off evil and brings peace; it should have some effect in restraining evil spirits.
That's why the jade Pixiu was able to go there without worry.
Because of the golden light emanating from the jade Pixiu, the walking corpses indeed stopped moving.
Just as the jade Pixiu was about to raise its head and show off, the walking corpses that had been captivated by the golden light started moving again, this time seemingly even faster than before.
The jade Pixiu looked on in disbelief: "...How is this possible?"
why is that?
Jade Abacus: "Useless." She turned and began to sob, "Master, what are we going to do?"
Yu Suanpan was very worried.
They are especially worried about the safety of their own owners.
Lan Yao smiled and said, "What else can we do? Of course, we'll just kill them."
She's very skilled at this job.
She channeled her spiritual power into a longbow, drew it back, aimed it at the horde of corpses, and fired several arrows simultaneously, each hitting the enemy's head with pinpoint accuracy.
The zombies that had been shot in the head instantly collapsed to the ground.
The jade abacus cheered, "Master is so amazing! (???????)?"
The jade Pixiu stammered, "...I, I actually don't dare either."
Although it's unclear why, it was proven wrong.
To prevent a repeat of what happened with the jade Pixiu, Lan Yao used her mental power to pile the corpses together and took out a post-apocalyptic tool for destroying evidence: burning powder.
However, before sprinkling the incendiary powder, Lan Yao first put on an air-purifying mask.
Once everything was ready, she used her gloved hands to sprinkle some incendiary powder onto the corpses.
During this time, the corpses became active again and tried to attack Lan Yao.
Lan Yao, undeterred, slashed them several more times, until they were no longer human-shaped.
After the incendiary powder was scattered, Lan Yao threw out a lit match... and the flames instantly flared up.
Jade Pixiu: "Master, won't what you're doing cause a forest fire?"
Lan Yao yawned: "No, I used my mental power to set up a barrier, letting them burn inside my barrier."
Jade Pixiu: "...That's good."
Jade Abacus scoffed, "How could someone as capable as Master forget such a trivial matter?"
The incendiary powder burns things very quickly, and it can basically be done in about ten minutes.
Everything produced in the apocalypse is known for its speed.
There's no way around it; if we waste too much time, it'll attract the attention of the zombies, which would be bad.
Shortly after the body was shrouded in the shadows, a few golden rays of light fell from the sky and shone upon Lan Yao.
The jade Pixiu exclaimed in surprise, "Master, you, you, you actually received the golden light of merit!"
Lan Yao: ...
"...It's quite a pleasant surprise."
Lan Yao looked down at the village and stroked her chin, asking, "Pipi, you said before that accumulating merit can increase wealth, right?"
Jade Pixiu: ...
When did I say such a thing? I don't remember doing so.
"...Okay, it seems there is such a saying."
"You just mentioned that the village down the mountain has a lot of malevolent energy, right?"
Hmm, if this can be resolved, she can regain the golden light of merit.
If not?
Then just run.
Even the most foolish jade Pixiu could understand the hidden meaning in its master's words.
"……really."?_?
Ahhhhh! The owner gets very excited when he hears about things related to wealth.
This is good; it complements its function.
"So, could I try my luck?" Lan Yao looked carefully into the distance with her left eye. She wondered if it was just her imagination, but she felt that the golden light in Baihe Village was brighter than she had ever seen before.
However, the golden light disappeared very quickly, in just a moment.
Even if it was just for a moment, Lan Yao was very moved.
Jade Pixiu: "Master, I support you. Because your fortune is currently soaring..."
Jade Abacus: "Speak human language."
The jade Pixiu was dejected: "Master's recent fortune has been exceptionally good. It's clear that there will be a steady stream of unexpected wealth coming in for some time to come. And it will all be delivered to your door on its own initiative."
"Wow!" Jade Abacus exclaimed, "Master is so amazing!"
Lan Yao raised an eyebrow: "Then it's settled. It just so happens that what I'm looking for is there too."
After Lan Yao finished speaking, she jumped off the mountaintop, and wings woven from her spiritual power carried her towards Baihe Village.
She discovered that as her body gradually recovered, she had more ways to utilize her spiritual power...
That's great!
...
In a small courtyard near the foot of Baixing Mountain in Baihe Village, several people sat in the yard with worried expressions.
Wang Zhenfeng clenched his fists and glared angrily at Wang Qianqian and her brother: "Why should I and Gu Zixiao pretend to be the bride?"
Wang Qianqian looked at Gu Zixiao, who was even more beautiful than a woman, and then at Wang Zhenfeng, who suddenly looked even more handsome than her.
A flash of jealousy crossed her eyes, and she immediately retorted sarcastically, "You two are disgusting, pretending to know the answer already. Don't you know what you look like now?"
"What's it to you?" Wang Zhenfeng glared at Wang Qianqian. "I haven't even said anything to you yet. How dare you spout off like that?"
They had been in the village for a few days. During the day, the villagers seemed normal and could communicate normally. They didn't appear to have been invaded by evil energy.
Seeing this, Gu Zixiao said, "Let's see if we can get out first."
Then, they searched for a way out in various ways, and each time they went out along the way, they were back in the village in the blink of an eye.
They had anticipated this situation.
The legendary "trick wall" had been encountered a few times before, but none of them had been as difficult as this one.
So, after going a few times and understanding the situation, they stopped.
However, on their last encounter, they were suddenly confronted by Wang Qianqian.
Upon seeing them, Wang Qianqian cried out in panic, "Something's fishy! Something's fishy!"
Then they saw several men dressed in white Tibetan robes rushing towards them with weapons.
Upon seeing them, these men's faces contorted with rage as they demanded, "Hand over that woman!"
