Now that they had obtained the Water Spirit Pearl, Fang Zheng and the others' next target was the Earth Spirit Pearl and the Thunder Spirit Pearl. So after leaving Black Mountain, they boarded the airship and flew all the way to Baihe Village.
After a busy day, everyone was a little tired, but fortunately there were guest rooms with built-in showers in the airship. Although Zhao Linger and Lin Yueru had never seen such things, Fang Zheng just asked Ai Ge to teach them and they learned it quickly. So everyone took a hot shower and went to bed. Not long after breakfast the next morning, the airship arrived at Baihe Village.
"It looks like Shirakawa Village is not far away."
Standing on the deck and looking at the village in the distance, Fang Zheng nodded.
"Let's find a deserted place and prepare to land."
Hearing Fang Zheng's words, Lin Yueru asked curiously.
"Brother Fang, why don't we land directly in Baihe Village?"
"Because of the trouble..."
"trouble?"
Lin Yueru couldn't understand what Fang Zheng said. Her father, Lin Tiannan, was also close to the head of the Shushan Immortal Sword Sect. Lin Yueru had met the sword master several times. He just rode on a flying sword and came and went as he pleased. He never caused any trouble. Moreover, Lin Yueru was just a middle school student. This airship was so beautiful and grand that she naturally wanted to show it off to others. Therefore, Lin Yueru didn't understand Fang Zheng's sneaky style of action.
However, Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders in response to Lin Yueru's suggestion.
"You don't understand? Well, I'll try it once and you'll understand."
After saying this, Fang Zheng directly controlled the airship to fly directly over Baihe Village and began to slowly descend.
When the villagers of Baihe Village saw this strange airship, they shouted in surprise. Soon, a large group of people gathered around. Fang Zheng piloted the airship to a patch of grass outside Baihe Village, and then he walked down with a few people.
Then……
“Gods!!”
Lin Yueru had just stepped onto the ground when she was startled by the sudden roar. Before she could do anything, she saw a woman crying and falling to her feet.
"God has appeared, please save my family. My husband died early, and my parents and children are all infected with corpse poison. I, I beg you!"
"Yes, God, please save us!!"
At this moment, other people also gathered around, knelt down and kowtowed to Fang Zheng and his group. At this moment, Lin Yueru was completely speechless as she looked at the people crying and shouting in front of her.
"See, I told you so."
Fang Zheng helplessly spread his hands in front of Lin Yueru, and then he walked towards Baihe Village. When the others saw Fang Zheng leaving, they hurriedly followed him, not daring to entangle with these villagers anymore.
Fortunately, the villagers did not dare to block Fang Zheng's way. Seeing Fang Zheng was about to leave, they did not dare to do anything. Fang Zheng walked directly to the gate of Baihe Village, then glanced around and spoke.
"Who is the village chief here?"
"Yes, it's me, Immortal."
Hearing Fang Zheng's question, an old man came out quickly and bowed respectfully to Fang Zheng.
"My Immortal, please save us..."
"You don't have to do this, old man."
Seeing the old man about to kneel down, Fang Zheng quickly winked at Zhao Linger, and Zhao Linger immediately understood what Fang Zheng meant and hurried forward to support the old man.
"Excuse me, what exactly happened here?"
"The nearby Heihe Town has been plagued by zombies recently, causing chaos and making our place uneasy. We have also been hit by the disaster. Many victims from Heihe Town have come here to seek refuge, but now there are zombies everywhere. We dare not go out... Please help me, immortal..."
“Where are the victims?”
Hearing this, Fang Zheng also opened his mouth to ask. Although he knew it, but... it was still more in line with the game process to ask?
"Ah, most of these disaster victims are now receiving treatment from the Han Yixian. I'll take you there..."
The old village chief was also a perceptive man. After he finished speaking, he turned around hurriedly and led Fang Zheng and his group towards Han Yixian's home.
Halfway through the walk, Lin Yueru saw a large group of people queuing not far away. They looked like they were buying something and were very busy. This made her curious and asked.
"Father, what does that business sell? Why is the business so busy?"
"Why!"
Hearing Lin Yueru's question, the old village chief sighed.
"That's Mr. Luo's shop, selling glutinous rice..."
"Why are so many people buying glutinous rice? Are they going to make rice dumplings?"
"Hey, immortal, you don't know. Recently, because of the zombies, everyone in the village is in a panic. They heard that glutinous rice can restrain zombies, so they all want to buy some for self-defense. But Mr. Luo bought up all the glutinous rice in the surrounding area early on. Now, only he has glutinous rice to sell in this area! As a result, his glutinous rice is ten times higher than the market price! Hey..."
"What? There is such a thing?"
Hearing this, Lin Yueru's eyes widened immediately.
"Just wait and see how I deal with this unscrupulous businessman!"
"How are you going to deal with him?"
Hearing this, Fang Zheng asked curiously, and Lin Yueru gave a confident answer.
"Beat him up, and then make him give all the sticky rice to the villagers!"
"Aren't you afraid that he will report it to the police?"
"What are you afraid of!"
Facing Fang Zheng's question, Lin Yueru patted her chest proudly.
"My father is the master of the Lin Family Castle and the leader of the martial arts world. Our Lin Family is a famous family in Jiangnan. What can a mere official do to me?"
“…”
Oh, Fang Zheng had forgotten that Lin Yueru in front of him could be considered a genuine second-generation.
"Besides, beating him up is still the best option. If it were my father, he would probably chop off one of his hands to serve as a warning to others!"
Wow... this ancient time is so scary...
But hoarding is indeed illegal...
"Don't worry."
Fang Zheng thought for a moment and then spoke to the old village chief.
"We are here for these zombies. Once we get rid of them, you won't have to worry about zombie disasters anymore."
"That's great! That's great!!"
Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, the old village chief nodded excitedly. As they were talking, everyone finally arrived at Han Yixian's clinic. It was also crowded with people, but the situation was obviously not very good. Most of them were lying on the ground, groaning. A girl in a blue flowered shirt hurriedly walked in and out with medicine. Obviously, the situation here was not very good.
"Wow...are these all from Black River Town?"
It was the first time that Lin Yueru saw so many patients, and she was also shocked. The old village chief nodded hurriedly.
"That's right. Many of these people were bitten by zombies and were poisoned by them... Alas..."
Wow, this is like an ancient version of Resident Evil.
Looking at this scene, Fang Zheng couldn't help but think of the zombie tide in the biochemical world. However, zombies are scientific after all, but zombies are not scientific.
But if Fang Zheng were to say, he couldn't say which side was better. After all, you said that zombies are easy to infect, at least they are easy to deal with, just chop off their heads. But zombies are not so easy to deal with, but they are afraid of glutinous rice...
I really don’t know which one would be more harmful in modern society, zombies or undead.
“Ugh… Uwaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”
Just when Fang Zheng's mind was full of random thoughts, suddenly, a patient screamed loudly, and then he rolled over desperately, looking very painful. Seeing this scene, everyone around screamed and moved away, and the old village chief's face also changed drastically.
"Oh no, this is the corpse poison attacking the heart!"
"Leave it to me."
Fang Zheng had almost figured out that this so-called corpse poison was more of a curse than a T virus in Resident Evil, so he stretched out his finger and quickly cast a "Remove Curse" spell on the patient. The next moment, a flash of magic light appeared, and then the black air on the patient's face dissipated. In the blink of an eye, he fell to the ground, but he had come to his senses and was no longer as scary as before.
Seeing this, everyone widened their eyes in surprise.
“Gods!!!”
