After hanging up the phone, he glanced at his teacher who was reading a newspaper with reading glasses, and felt a little surprised.
Taoyao is a tree spirit. It only needs to go through one more thunder tribulation before it can transform. Although the time is long, it feels that every moment is worth it.
Until that evening, a water ghost carrying large and small bags passed by its territory.
Tao Yao was a little puzzled as to how this ghost, which was extremely fragile when out of water, dared to pass through her territory.
So it intercepted the water ghost. The water ghost was very excited, gesticulating and talking about something. Tao Yao's face became more and more gloomy.
I can't stay in this crappy place anymore! I have to leave!
Qingxi Town made a lot of money because of the zombies and the half-human, half-snake gimmick. Later, Fang Zhiyi sold the zombies. Although everyone got a share of the money, no one thought it was too much. At this time, Fang Zhiyi launched his new product.
A great gift pack for beginners who want to catch monsters and ghosts.
There were enchanted peach wood swords, yellow cloth for wrapping ghosts, and talismans for weakening monsters' abilities...So the townspeople of Qingxi Town began a vigorous capture campaign.
In the past, the monsters here were mostly there because humans were afraid of them, but now the situation has been reversed. When humans see a monster or a ghost, they will howl and rush forward. All the monsters and ghosts within a hundred miles of Qingxi Town have fled.
It’s not that there were no monsters fighting back, but these humans were not afraid at all. They had more powerful people backing them up. They would shoot with their fire-breathing sticks at the slightest disagreement. The foolish monsters were beaten to pieces when faced with this concentrated firepower.
Taoyao cursed as she struggled to pull her roots out of the soil. She was going to go deep into the mountains, somewhere devoid of humans! She would never come out again! Never!
A hundred days later, in a dormitory.
"These photos come from a foreign journalist, and there are hundreds of them kept in their library." The AI voice-over in the short video introduced, and then a photo appeared on the mobile phone screen. There were several iron cages in the photo, and several "people" with fangs standing in the cages. Under the cages were a sheriff standing stiffly, a man in plain clothes, and a foreigner.
A few more photos followed.
"The creature imprisoned in this cage is a half-human, half-snake monster. According to investigations, it didn't live very long. The woman with disheveled hair next to it is probably a mental patient. Perhaps there were no medical conditions at the time that could cure her..."
"The one in the middle is Fang Xian'e, a well-known feng shui master according to local records. Locals have mixed opinions about him because, according to records, he was the first to sell zombies as national treasures to foreigners. At the same time, he also used zombies and monsters as exhibits to attract tourists, boosting the local economy."
"Hahaha, that's outrageous!" A girl laughed so hard that she fell over.
"What a genius! Zombies being national treasures, I never thought!"
"Short videos are getting more and more outrageous these days. Yesterday it was about dragons, today it's about zombies."
"Ha ha ha ha..."
The girl holding the phone sighed softly. "I was a little curious about the history of Qingxi Town, which has become a famous ghost town due to abandonment, but it turns out that all I found out is unofficial history."
Just as she was about to scroll down, another photo popped up: "The zombie symbols preserved in our country have all been destroyed in the war, but I recently heard that a Western country has a well-preserved zombie that they want to return to us."
"Is this true?"
A video appeared. In the video, the zombie was locked in a glass cabinet. Its protruding fangs were very scary. Although it had its eyes closed, it made people feel like someone was squeezing their heart.
"As for whether it's true or not, you'll find out when the news breaks. If zombies do exist, it might be a major discovery in human history."
A girl was staring at her phone screen in a trance when her roommate bumped into her.
"What are you doing?"
The girl shook her head, a little puzzled: "It's a bit strange to say, I think I have seen that person..."
"Zombies? Your relatives?"
"Get lost, I mean that Mr. Fang, he looks familiar..." Her face was full of confusion.
