Chapter 273 Guarding the Forest and Awaiting the Corpse



The black mist swirled around Yue Jiuli's head, seemingly preparing for a major battle. But just as Yue Jiuli was about to see what other tricks it had up its sleeve, the black mist suddenly shot out of the window with a 'whoosh' and disappeared!

"Holy crap! You better not run away!"

Yue Jiuli was almost laughing at Hei Wu's actions. Just when it looked like a fight was about to break out, this guy actually ran away. Wasn't this going to make her laugh to death?

"Hey, why are you chickening out? Come back and fight me if you dare!"

Yue Jiuli ran to the window and saw that the black mist had flown far away. She then climbed onto the windowsill and shouted at it, intending to chase after it. But just as she was about to jump down, she suddenly remembered that Feng Meng had not yet woken up.

"Hey~ Feng Meng, wake up! There's a ghost!"

"Ah! What the hell!"

Yue Jiuli jumped back to the bedside and woke Feng Meng up. Feng Meng had only been asleep for a short time, so he was quickly woken up. No, it should be said that he was startled awake by Yue Jiuli's shout of "There's a ghost!"

He looked at Yue Jiuli with some surprise and said, "Sister, what's wrong? Is a ghost here?"

Feng Meng huddled in bed, wrapped in the blanket, too afraid to move. He also saw the bear on the floor, whose neck had been snapped by Yue Jiuli. He said, "Sister, what happened to this bear? Is it... is it..."

"That's right, it just came out by itself. Okay, hold onto the bamboo tightly, and don't let go or run around. I'm going to catch it. Remember, you can't give the bamboo to anyone else and you can't let go. I won't ask you for the bamboo, so if you see me asking you for it, don't give it to me, because that 'me' might not be the real me~"

Yue Jiuli left Feng Meng with a piece of advice, and then jumped out of the window from a high floor, leaving Feng Meng alone in the ward.

Meanwhile, Yue Jiuling and Ya Zi, who were "guarding the forest and waiting for the corpse," were still watching the moon in the forest.

Yue Jiuling, wearing the ugly flower wreath woven by Ya Zi, leaned against the tree trunk. She straddled the tree, her legs swinging in mid-air, looking incredibly relaxed and comfortable.

Ya Zi sat down opposite Yue Jiu Ling, in a similar posture. He looked up at the moon with her and said, "The moon is bright and the stars are few. The moon is so bright tonight!"

"Yes, the moon is so bright, shouldn't he come out by now? It's already past midnight."

Yue Jiuling was calculating the time. It was already around 12:30 a.m., which was the time when the yin energy was at its strongest. But why hadn't the protagonist of the night appeared yet?

Ya Zi knew Yue Jiuling was getting impatient, so he said, "Let's wait a little longer~ Maybe she'll come out soon~"

Yue Jiuling looked at Lin Zi and pouted, "I've been waiting for several hours already. Sigh~ If I didn't want to dig him up, I would have dug him up and gotten rid of him long ago."

Listening to Yue Jiuling's complaints, Ya Zi wanted to say a few more words, but before he could speak, he suddenly noticed a slight movement in the woods ahead!

"Look, isn't there some movement over there?"

It seems so.

Beyond the woods, a patch of grass was undulating, and soon after, a 'person' covered in mud and filth crawled out.

The 'person' dug himself out of the mud, shook off the dirt, and then slowly walked towards Yue Jiuling and Ya Zi.

As soon as Yue Jiuling saw him, she immediately straightened her back by holding onto the tree trunk, her eyes still fixed on the 'person'. She took a deep breath and whispered to Ya Zi, "Here he comes. Should we go down now or wait a little longer?"

Ya Zi wasn't as nervous as Yue Jiu Ling. He crossed his arms and leaned against a tree trunk, saying, "No rush, let's wait a bit longer. By the way, I've already set up a barrier. Now this forest is one you can enter but not leave."

"Smart! By the way, when did you set up the barrier? I didn't know!"

When Yue Jiuling heard Ya Zi say that a barrier had been set up in the forest, she was no longer as nervous as before. She was actually worried that this guy would escape and they wouldn't be able to catch him, so she was a little anxious. But now that she heard Ya Zi say that the barrier was only for those who could enter but not leave, she immediately relaxed.

“Just now~” Ya Zi reached out and touched Yue Jiuling’s flower wreath, saying, “While I was working on this thing, I took the opportunity to set up a barrier. You were already up in the tree at that time, so of course you didn’t know.”

"Oh, so that's when it was~"

Yue Jiuling watched the 'person' as he entered the woods, keeping a close eye on him. She said, "Is he looking for food? He seems very intelligent; he's so careful even when he walks."

The 'person' on the ground walks very slowly, sometimes even stopping after a few steps. But although he walks very slowly, his movements are surprisingly fast.

Because Yue Jiuling saw a rabbit jump past him with his own eyes, and he quickly grabbed it and ate it raw!

"Tsk, as expected of a zombie, it's already stained with blood. But at least it doesn't eat human blood. Small animals are still acceptable."

Yue Jiuling shook her head and said, "Alright, he's already started eating, so it's time for us to get to work."

After Yue Jiuling finished speaking, she flew down from the tree and landed lightly next to the zombie.
