Faced with everyone's enthusiastic self-recommendations, she became a little hesitant.

After all, this was her first time stepping into a tavern. She had limited knowledge of the place and had no idea of ​​the people's personalities, so she didn't dare to agree rashly.

Who knows what these people will do when they go to her place.

What if they are a group of evil spirits in human skin, bewitching me in this way?

She was not forced into a desperate situation now, so there was no need for her to take such a risk.

She declined, "Thank you for your kindness, but I want to handle this matter myself first."

Everyone showed regretful expressions.

Sasuke took a big gulp of white wine in a depressed mood and choked and coughed.

He actually doesn't like drinking white wine, but in order to get closer to the guests in the pub, he would drink a bottle of Erguotou by himself every day, but he could never adapt.

Saitama scratched his bald head, shrugged regretfully, and said to Ma Xiaoling: "If you have any questions, you can come to me. I will do my best!"

He had a good relationship with the guests in the tavern and was not eager to prove himself. He spoke earlier more out of enthusiasm and a hint of luck.

What if there are powerful masters in that world who can arouse your interest?

Looking at Ma Xiaoling's appearance, he guessed that the possibility was very slim.

This woman can suppress ten thousand people with just one finger. It's really ordinary. I think it's the same in that world.

"I certainly will. Thank you." said Ma Xiaoling.

Saitama nodded, and saw Xiao Li and Pang Bo huddled together and whispering not far away. His eyes brightened slightly, and he tiptoed over.

Watching him leave, Ma Xiaoling let out a sigh of relief.

She inexplicably felt that this bald guy was not someone she could easily mess with.

Fortunately, the other party did not continue to pester me.

As a former favorite of the emperor, Yu Huatian's ability to read people's expressions is first-rate.

He saw Ma Xiaoling's worry, and before she could speak, he bowed and said with a smile: "Miss Ma is new to the tavern, so there must be a lot that she doesn't know. I won't bother you. If you need anything, you don't have to be polite to me."

"Of course!"

Seeing him walk away, Ma Xiaoling's expression relaxed a lot.

She suspected she was being too cautious.

"Don't be merciful to the Japs. These bastards are ungrateful wolves who can never be tamed. The harsher you are to them, the more they will respect you!" Li Yunlong stepped forward and said.

"Thank you for the reminder." Ma Xiaoling said.

Uncle Jiu saw through her perfunctory attitude and introduced her, "This is Captain Li Yunlong. He was in the war years and many of his comrades died at the hands of the invading Japanese."

Ma Xiaoling stood up in awe, raised her hand, saluted, and said, "It turned out to be Captain Li. I will definitely keep it in mind!"

Li Yunlong nodded: "If you can't handle that Japanese zombie, just come to the tavern and I'll get someone to help you!"

He changed the subject and said with a smile, "There is also that guy named Kuang Tianzuo or something. If there is a chance in the future, I will introduce him to us."

Ma Xiaoling agreed readily.

Seeing that she refused to let him go to her world, Li Yunlong felt regretful and waved goodbye.

When he returned to his seat, he felt somewhat relieved.

This newcomer is penniless. If the other party really invites him over, he cannot afford the ticket of 100 time and space coins.

"But if there really is such an opportunity, I can bring along a few wealthy men." Li Yunlong glanced around the tavern and a smile reappeared on his face.

Seeing the few people who had come close to her walking away one after another, Ma Xiaoling patted her chest lightly.

She runs a "cleaning" company and catches ghosts to make money.

Although she is kind-hearted and has a sharp tongue but a soft heart, she is also a little materialistic after all.

She has always believed that anyone who shows kindness for no reason is either a villain or a thief, so when she saw so many people offering to help at the same time, she felt very nervous and suspected that they all had other intentions.

This has alleviated many of her concerns.

She turned to look at Uncle Jiu and Yan Chixia and the others.

"If you're not in a hurry, you can buy something first," Uncle Jiu suggested, "and check if you have anything valuable on you."

Ma Xiaoling had heard him mention it before and was eager to try it.

But when she thought of Kuang Tianyou's identity, she hesitated again.

According to Su Luo, that was a zombie that had survived from the war years to the present!

Even if he seemed to have a sense of justice, and even the mysterious tavern owner said he was of good character, what if he was extremely hungry? A picture suddenly appeared in her mind.

Kuang Tianyou rode on his friend, and Wang Zhenzhen's body twitched slightly. When she got closer, Kuang Tianyou suddenly turned back, revealing his sharp teeth covered in blood, while his friend lay in a pool of blood, dying...

Thinking of this, she shuddered all over and her face turned pale.

"No, I have to go back quickly!" She shook her head violently and said quickly.

"Goodbye, everyone!"

Yan Chixia had just opened his mouth when he saw Ma Xiaoling disappear from his sight.

He grabbed the bottle of wine on the table, took a sip, and suddenly laughed, "You are so impetuous, you are really a chivalrous woman!"

Uncle Jiu put the yellow talisman and the golden sword back into the low-level storage ring he had saved up to buy, and said helplessly: "I originally wanted to give her some magical tools to catch ghosts and exorcise monsters!"

Yan Chixia shook the bottle and said, "She will come back on her own!"

Uncle Jiu thought about it and agreed.

He has dealt with zombies a lot and has a deep understanding of them.

Those zombies of who knows how many generations are already so difficult to deal with, let alone two monsters that were transformed from the first generation of zombies.

It is impossible for ordinary zombies to travel during the day, let alone retain their memories of their previous life.

They are real monsters! These two zombies can hide among ordinary people, so you can imagine how powerful they are! He was sure that Ma Xiaoling could not deal with them.

When she comes into conflict with the two zombies, she will definitely come to the tavern for help.

Uncle Jiu, who was planning to go back, suddenly left in no hurry.

He really wanted to meet those two zombies! ...

Ma Xiaoling has returned to the small tree.

A large piece of bark was knocked off the tree trunk by her, and there was a large mess on the ground.

She looked around, feeling the "key" in her mind. When she realized that she could leave at any time, she felt quite weird.

That space-time tavern was not actually my illusion!

If what Uncle Jiu and the others said is true...

"Once I become rich, I can make a lot of money without relying on catching ghosts!" She clenched her fists excitedly.

Suddenly she heard a voice coming from the front and turned to look.

When she saw her good friend Wang Zhenzhen being supported by Kuang Tianyou and sliding down little by little, she narrowed her eyes.

When they first met, she had a good impression of Kuang Tianyou.

Unlike his partner who looked lustful, Kuang Tianyou was calm and polite.

When chatting privately with friends, Wang Zhenzhen also gave very good comments.

When she ran into him again while catching ghosts and learned that he was a Hong Kong police officer, she had a better impression of him, so she entrusted her frightened friend to him.

However, now that she knew of Kuang Tianyou's identity as a zombie, when she looked at him again, she clearly sensed something was wrong.

Is he afraid that his fangs will be exposed?

Earlier, when I offered to treat him to a meal, he politely declined, apparently because his food was blood!

It's almost like treating him to a meal and giving yourself to him.

She was observing the two of them, and suddenly she saw Zhenzhen seemed to have lost her balance and her body tilted.

Just as she was about to fall, Kuang Tianyou caught her with incredible speed.

Seeing the two of them talking and laughing, Ma Xiaoling thought of Su Luo's evaluation of Kuang Tianyou, and her expression softened a little.

Maybe there are really good zombies in the world? This thought flashed through her mind, and she raised her legs and walked quickly towards the two of them.

Wang Zhenzhen, who was shyly expressing her gratitude to Kuang Tianyou and asking for advice on skiing techniques, suddenly noticed that the man in front of her stopped talking and looked in the direction of his gaze suspiciously.

Oops!

Xiaoling must have seen me falling down on purpose just now. Will she make fun of me?

However, what made her feel relieved and inexplicably disappointed was that Ma Xiaoling's eyes did not even stay on her face, and she said to Kuang Tianyou: "Officer Kuang is very good at skiing, he must have practiced a lot, right?"

"Practice makes perfect," Kuang Tianyou explained.

He looked at Ma Xiaoling quietly.

The reason why he agreed to go out with the two of them earlier was that he wanted to get to know them better.

Because of his experience many years ago, he was very curious about this similar figure and even felt a little grateful.

The identity of the exorcist and Ma Xiaoling's appearance made him realize that the other party must be related to the woman who hunted zombies and allowed him to survive in disguise many years ago.

The two were most likely blood relatives! Even though he didn't like his current appearance, he wanted to be a normal person, but he was grateful enough to be able to survive in this way and make up for many regrets.

When the day comes when he has no regrets and wants to end his life completely, he can ask the other party for help.

Ma Xiaoling pointedly asked, "Then you must have been skiing for many years, right?"

"It's been quite a few years." said Kuang Tianyou.

"Probably, fifty or sixty years?" Ma Xiaoling said with a smile.

She spoke in a joking tone, but her eyes did not move away from Kuang Tianyou's face.

Kuang Tianyou's eyes flickered slightly and he felt inexplicably uneasy.

"You are only in your fifties or sixties, and Officer Kuang is at most twenty-eight!" Wang Zhenzhen interrupted.

Officer Kuang doesn't look old at all, but he has a mature temperament.

Isn't it a mockery of my friend that he likes my uncle? Kuang Tianyou nodded, approving Wang Zhenzhen's answer.

Ma Xiaoling felt depressed and glared at her friend, thinking to herself, what a lustful pig-head! She was only doing this for her own good!

If she didn't take care of it, she would become zombies' food sooner or later! She kicked the snow under her feet and said, "I have a portrait at home, which was left by my great-aunt. It looks very much like Officer Kuang."

"How come I don't know?" Wang Zhenzhen looked at her friend warily.

She's not trying to steal my love, is she? "Zhenzhen, you haven't even married yet, why are you already turning your elbow out? We're just friends!" Ma Xiaoling glared at her stupid teammate, "Do I have to show you everything in my house?"

Wang Zhenzhen's face had already turned red because of her previous words, and she could no longer hear what she said afterwards.

She opened her mouth and grunted, and after a long while she uttered "nonsense".

Then she turned around and simply stopped playing with the two of them! Kuang Tianyou then asked, "Who is your aunt?"

"He was a very powerful exorcist. He almost killed Jiang Chen, the world's first zombie. Unfortunately, he ran away too fast!" Ma Xiaoling's tone was filled with undisguised pride.

Kuang Tianyou felt a chill in his heart.

really!

The doubts in his mind were answered.

But he would not reveal his identity to this exorcist whom he met for the first time.

"Maybe it was one of my ancestors." Kuang Tianyou said.

Ma Xiaoling stared at his expression, suddenly rubbed her hands vigorously, put them in her pockets, and asked, "Officer Kuang is wearing so little, aren't you cold?"

"My body..."

Kuang Tianyou was just about to say that he had a good physique to get away with it, but Ma Xiaoling interrupted him and said, "I heard that zombies are not afraid of the cold!"

Kuang Tianyou's expression suddenly changed.

Ding-a-ling…

His cell phone suddenly rang.

He quickly took it, listened to the chattering voices in his ears, responded with a few nods, and turned around and said, "Miss Ma, I have something urgent to do, I'll leave first, see you!"

After saying that, he walked away without looking back.

"Hey, wait a minute!" Ma Xiaoling said hurriedly.

Kuang Tianyou walked faster.

"Where's Officer Kuang?"

Ma Xiaoling wanted to chase after him, but found that her clothes were pulled by someone.

She turned around and saw that it was her good friend Wang Zhenzhen, and she was immediately furious.

"Why are you pulling me? Everyone has run away!" She turned her head again, and there was no trace of Kuang Tianyou in her sight.

"I haven't asked you what happened yet." Wang Zhenzhen asked puzzledly, "Why did he leave without saying goodbye?"

"Are you so concerned about him?" Ma Xiaoling said speechlessly.

Wang Zhenzhen's tone paused, and then she became confident: "I finally met a fellow countryman in an island country, and he helped me. Shouldn't I be grateful?"

"How do you thank him?" Ma Xiaoling sneered, "Give you to him?"

Wang Zhenzhen was embarrassed and shouted, "Ma! Xiao! Ling!"

Ma Xiaoling's tone suddenly changed and she said, "What if he is a zombie?"

These sudden words stunned Wang Zhenzhen.

She looked at Ma Xiaoling seriously and asked, "Do you like him?"

"Is there nothing else in your mind except men?" Ma Xiaoling said unhappily.

"Then why are you saying such weird things!" Wang Zhenzhen was still suspicious.

"Did you notice anything wrong with him?" Ma Xiaoling asked, thinking of the time when her good friend had spent half a day alone with Kuang Tianyou.

"I found that the most abnormal thing is you!" Wang Zhenzhen took her friend's arm and turned to ask, "You are not a zombie, are you?"

"Me? Zombie?" Ma Xiaoling almost laughed.

Seeing her expression, Wang Zhenzhen smiled and said, "You see, being slandered as a zombie is a very difficult thing to accept, right? So don't say bad things about others behind their backs!"

I fucking...

Ma Xiaoling suddenly wanted to swear.

Why didn’t I notice before that my friend couldn’t walk when she saw a man?
