Chapter 142: Tricked out of the tomb

As soon as the three words "Soul-fixing bead" came out, the woman grabbed Zhang Ming's hand and squeezed hard, making Zhang Ming feel a pain.

She stared at Zhang Ming with her big eyes, and after a long time, she said, "What do you want the Soul-fixing bead for!"

Zhang Ming said, "A very important person has lost her soul since she was a child. I need the Soul-fixing bead to make her soul temporarily complete until she finds her soul."

After hearing this, the woman's hand loosened slightly. Zhang Ming was extremely surprised. Is this really a human? A person who has lived for one or two hundred years and has such great strength?

He would never believe it!

"Are you telling the truth?" the woman asked Zhang Ming.

Zhang Ming said, "The absolute truth!"

"Okay, I believe you, and I tell you, the Soul-Fixing Orb is with me. During these two hundred years of sleep, it was all thanks to it that my soul was gathered and not scattered.

This is a good thing, I can lend it to you, but I have a condition!" The woman looked at Zhang Ming and said.

Zhang Ming asked, "What condition?"

The woman said, "Hehe... you and I are related by skin... I want to marry you!"

"Ah?" Zhang Ming was stunned.

At the same time, Gu Qi said, "No!"

The woman looked at Gu Qi, then at Zhang Ming, and said, "If you agree, I will give you the Soul-Fixing Orb!"

Zhang Ming said helplessly, "Sister, this is not the old times. In this society, love is free, and touching hands does not necessarily mean marriage.

Besides, you are a person from one or two hundred years ago. You don't have an ID card, you are not a legal citizen, and you cannot get married."

"Why? What is the rule?" The woman stared.

Zhang Ming continued, "Because you are not a member of this society, is this difficult to understand? In our society, marriage must go through legal procedures. You are not even a member of our society, how can I marry you?"

This stunned the woman. Zhang Ming rolled his eyes and said,

"I don't think you are a bad person. Even if you wake up today, you will have to live in this society in the future.

How about this, I promise to take care of all your food, clothing, housing and transportation in this society in the future, and you can lend me the Soul-Fixing Pearl, just for a while, how about it?"

The woman did not speak, as if she was thinking about something.

Zhang Ming continued to talk: "This society is much more exciting than it was one or two hundred years ago. There are so many delicious and fun things to do, don't you want to go out and have a look!

But going out to eat, drink and have fun all kinds of things requires money, and you're a girl, where do you get the money, right? So I can..."

Before he finished speaking, the woman's other hand took out a certain amount of gold from her body, which immediately made Zhang Ming speechless.

He swallowed and said, "These days, we don't spend gold. Our money is not this. Yours is outdated."

Then, he took the gold from the woman's hand with his other hand and said, "This thing is useless. I'll put it away for you."

The woman seemed to believe Zhang Ming's words and said with some loss, "Has the world really changed so much..."

"It's very big. It's not the world it used to be. But it's beautiful. If you don't believe it, you can go out with us to see it. But you have to lend me the soul-fixing bead!" Zhang Ming continued.

The woman sighed, then took out a black bead from her ancient costume belt, handed it to Zhang Ming casually, and said, "Give it to you. It's useless to me anyway."

Zhang Ming took it and looked at the grape-sized black bead in his hand. He couldn't believe it. It was so easy to get it?

However, after he took a look at the bead, his whole spirit suddenly shook, as if he suddenly became much more energetic.

This feeling was very strange. Zhang Ming understood that it was not that he was in good spirits, but that the bead made his soul more focused.

This was enough to prove that this was the real soul-fixing bead.

He looked at the woman and said, "Thank you, then... are you going out?"

In fact, he still didn't want this woman to go out. After all, she has lived for two hundred years, and it seems that this woman is very powerful. At present, no one knows what she is. What if something happens after she goes out.

"Go out, what you said is so exciting, I must go out and see it. But you can't go back on your promise to me. Even if we don't get married, you have to take care of my food, clothing, housing and transportation." The woman looked at Zhang Ming with her beautiful eyes and said.

Zhang Ming: "Uh... no... no problem!"

He seemed to have no choice but to agree, after all, he got the soul-fixing bead and a certain amount of gold.

"But can you tell me why you can live so long?" Zhang Ming still thought it would be better to find out the details.

Hearing this, the woman said: "Don't worry, I'm not a monster. The reason I can live so long without dying is indeed because after I fell asleep, this soul-fixing bead gathered my soul. In other words, I just slept for a longer time, but I am still a human being!"

Zhang Ming looked at the woman's appearance, and it seemed that she didn't want to talk, so he nodded.

Then he said: "After you go out with me, you must follow my arrangements and must not act arbitrarily, otherwise something will happen. Do you hear me?"

The woman nodded and smiled at Zhang Ming.

Zhang Ming couldn't laugh, he sighed and said: "It's a problem that you don't have a provincial ID card..."

"That's not a problem, I can find a way." The old man who had been silent spoke up.

Zhang Ming looked over and said: "Really?"

The old man nodded and said: "But... I still have that request, I hope you can help my daughter."

Zhang Ming took a deep breath and said: "Don't worry, if I can't help your daughter find her soul, I will definitely give her the soul-fixing bead first, after all... you came to find it first."

"Thank you!" The old man breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Zhang Ming was reasonable, otherwise he would be in trouble.

Zhang Ming looked at the woman who was still holding his hand and said: "Can you let go now? We are going out."

The woman let go, and then everyone left the tomb together?

Looking at the zombies outside, the woman sighed and said, "These are what my father used to protect me..."

Zhang Ming wanted to say something, but he held back. We'll find out more later when we have time!

After leaving the tomb, everyone went to the barbecue site overnight. It was already midnight, and Zhang Ming asked everyone to take a rest and leave early tomorrow morning.

The old man and his friends also set up tents at the place where they parked to rest. As for the fat man and his friends, they were hungry after working all night. Anyway, the grilling racks were ready, so they started a fire and started to grill.

Soon, the aroma came out, and the woman who had been following Zhang Ming licked her lips immediately.

Zhang Ming gave her a skewer to eat. She was a little embarrassed, so she took it and started to eat.

At this time, Zhang Ming said, "By the way, what's your name?"

The woman said, "My name is Liu Yan'er! By the way, this is really delicious. Can I have another skewer?"
