Chapter 296 A Genius Used as Cannon Fodder in the Apocalyptic Wasteland (7)



Two days ago, Ji Ying went out with her brother and others to search for that mutated plant.

After much effort, we finally found it.

However, a mutated beast was guarding the mutated plant. They fought a fierce battle and finally killed the mutated beast.

Who knew they would be discovered and followed by a vicious group of hunters.

They not only wanted to kill them and rob them of their property, but also wanted to intercept and steal that mutated plant.

The other party drove in a modified car.

Because at that time, she was the only ordinary person in the team.

So when the other party rushed in, a car drove straight in front of her and knocked her flying.

Because it happened so suddenly, her brother and the people protecting her were some distance away and couldn't stop her in time.

She could only watch helplessly as the speeding car crashed heavily into her.

Then she was knocked backward and flew more than ten meters away.

If this were any other time, she would be dead.

After being knocked to the ground, she only felt a little dizzy, but did not feel any pain in her body.

Then she heard a series of very faint "crackling" sounds, like glass shattering.

Then came a fierce battle, during which nearly half of their men died before they were able to escape.

When they returned to the base, her brother took her to the hospital for a checkup, and they found that she had neither internal nor external injuries.

She remembered the "click" sound she had heard earlier, and then took the necklace out of her clothes.

I then discovered that the pendant on the necklace was covered in cracks and was clearly ruined.

It felt as if her body had been smashed to pieces by a heavily modified car.

Only then did they begin to believe that Qingyou did indeed possess some inexplicable and mysterious abilities.

After leaving the hospital, the siblings rushed over to find Qingyou.

Besides expressing my gratitude, I would also like to ask Qingyou for another favor.

Then Ji Ying continued, "We encountered a group of hunters earlier. Brother Si was bitten by one of the corpses they were carrying, and then he suddenly fell into a coma."

"The hospital couldn't find the cause, but his bodily functions were gradually deteriorating."

"So we'd like to ask you to come over and help us take a look."

They were truly at their wits' end; according to the doctor, Si Qin wouldn't survive the night.

By the time they rushed back to the major hospital in the first district, it was too late.

Moreover, returning to the hospital in the first district might not save Si Qin.

They came to Qingyou for help, hoping it would be a last resort.

Qingyou asked, "What did the corpses they released look like?"

There are no zombies in this world, so it shouldn't be that thing.

Ji Yong said, “He was wearing strange clothes, the skin and muscles on his face and hands had atrophied, there was a yellow paper pasted on his forehead, and his four tiger teeth in his mouth were long and sharp.”

Ji Ying added, "I saw someone shake something, and then a crisp sound rang out. Suddenly, the corpse jumped over, grabbed Brother Si, and bit him."

Qingyou immediately understood. Ji Ying was probably referring to the bell, which was controlling the zombie to bite people.

"This must be the corpse control technique from before the Great Cataclysm."

It seems that someone was raising zombies before the cataclysm and has continued to do so even after the apocalypse.

She knew from the original owner's memories that the Hunter Group was a group specifically formed to kill and rob humans in the wild.

They call themselves "hunters," but they hunt people, not animals.

No wonder these people are so arrogant and unrestrained in the wild; it turns out they have zombies to rely on.

She then asked, "Did Si Qin's body turn blue, and then turn into a bluish-black color?"

Ji Yong was delighted. "Yes, yes, that's exactly it."

"Qingyou, since you know this, is there a way to save them?"

Qingyou nodded, "I do have a way to save people, but I need to see it in person to confirm it."

Ji Yong immediately said, "Then let's go quickly."

He gestured for Qingyou to enter, saying, "Our car is right outside."

Soon, the group arrived at the hospital.

Inside the ward, Si Qin's face and exposed skin had begun to turn bluish-black.

Before Ji Yong and the other person could invite her, Qingyou took the initiative to go over.

I lifted Si Qin's eyelids to take a look, and then looked at the bite wound on his neck.

"It was indeed a zombie bite. He's been infected with zombie poison, and if it's not cured, he won't survive the night."

Upon hearing that Qingyou and the doctor's assessment was the same, Ji Yong excitedly asked, "Please save him! If he's alright, we'll repay you handsomely."

Qingyou shrugged and said, "Although I can save him, I need some things, which I don't have right now. You'll have to go find some quickly."

She has them all in her profile, but unfortunately I can't open them.

In the original owner's memories, she later saw Si Qin again.

That must be because Ji Ying didn't die, which led to Si Qin's misfortune.

Ji Yong said, "Tell me what you need, and I'll have someone go find it for you right now."

Qingyou took out a notebook from her crossbody bag and wrote down cinnabar, talisman paper, calligraphy brush, and glutinous rice.

After she finished writing, she tore off a piece of paper and handed it to Ji Yong, saying, "If you really can't find any talisman paper, yellow paper will do."

To cure Siqin's corpse poison, the only solution is to boil talismans into water and give it to him to drink, and then apply glutinous rice to his wounds—a two-pronged approach.

Ji Yong immediately ordered his men to search for it, determined to find it before tonight no matter what.

The Ji and Si families mobilized all their connections in the fourth district to search for them.

Fortunately, they found everything in the end, but the glutinous rice was grown through a mutation, and the cinnabar and other ingredients were obtained by trading with an ordinary family.

This family has an elderly member who was a Taoist priest before the great catastrophe, so some of his practices are still preserved.
