Qiao Qiu felt it was a shame to call this kid a zombie; he'd be more suited to be a vampire.
"Kid, what's your name?"
“Su Xi”.
How old are you this year?
"Eighty, ninety...ten years old!"
He couldn't even speak clearly when lying; he said "si" instead of "shi" (shi) year old. Qiao Qiu was too lazy to laugh at him anymore and continued to ask, "Is he really a man?"
"...I can take off my pants and show you."
"No need. Which city do you live in? I'll take you back."
"My sister has already asked me all her questions, now it's my turn to ask you." Su Xi tilted her head back and blinked her big eyes cutely.
"...Ask away." Qiao Qiu isn't very resistant to cute things, it's a miracle she's been able to resist for so long.
"What's your sister's name?"
"The Wind Sings".
How old are you this year?
"sixteen."
Do you have a fiancé?
"Kid, you're asking a bit too many questions."
"I'm asking you."
"Don't meddle in these adult matters, you're just a kid. That's all for now. Which city are you from? Tell me and I'll take you there."
After Qiao Qiu asked the question, Su Xi lowered her head, looking very frustrated. "I've lived in four cities, but I don't have a specific home. My parents were eaten by zombies. I started wandering when I was very young, so I don't remember my age very clearly, and I don't remember what month I was born."
Qiao Qiu wanted to applaud; it was truly impressive that he managed to cover up his previous lie. However, the kid's acting was indeed quite good; if she hadn't immediately recognized him as a zombie, she might have been completely fooled.
Wait, zombies...
Qiao Qiu had no concept of this before, but suddenly realized that zombies are creatures that bite, and that being bitten will gradually turn you into a zombie. What if she were like those zombies outside, with a festering face, no breath, and no intelligence...
"Is there really no one left in your house?" The thought of being bitten sent chills down Qiao Qiu's spine.
"That's all." Su Xi kept her head down, her voice soft and cute, but her two little tiger teeth were slowly growing longer.
"Shall I take you somewhere?"
"Huh?" Su Xi was stunned for a moment, then immediately put her teeth away.
Before it could react, Qiao Qiu grabbed it by the back of its collar, lifted it up in a second, and with a gust of wind, it rushed out of the barrier, throwing it out in a graceful and beautiful arc. Then, with another gust of wind, it rushed back into the barrier.
Qiao Qiu completed the series of actions in one go, in the blink of an eye, without even looking where the little zombie was thrown.
At this moment, she was extremely grateful that she was a wind-type ability user. If she had a different ability, she wouldn't have been able to get that brat out so quickly.
Don't think she doesn't know that although advanced zombies can ignore barriers, the medium for them to enter must be a mutant.
Qiao Qiu clapped her hands, not daring to look outside, afraid of seeing a ghostly doll with a blue face and fangs. She waved her hand gently, summoning a wisp of wind, and was about to leave when she suddenly felt awkward.
Oh no, which way is south and which way is north?
No, she couldn't hesitate any longer. Many people saw her throw Su Xi just now. If that brat comes back and howls again, she won't be able to leave.
Never mind, there's still a crossroads. Once we see the crossroads, it'll be over soon, right?
Having made up her mind, Qiao Qiu randomly picked a side and went with the wind, quickly disappearing from sight.
In the small gully outside the barrier, the little kid, who had been thrown around in a daze, rolled over and stood up. This action was very strange, almost like a zombie coming back to life.
Su Xi rubbed his bottom, bared his little tiger teeth, and a glint of dark blue light flashed in his big eyes. "You wretched woman, you clearly saw through my true form, yet you acted with me for so long and even threw me out. You wait, if I find you, I'll definitely turn you into a zombie too, and see what you do then."
The little boy withdrew his eerie light, crawled out of the ditch, and happened to see several women who had stopped and were looking in his direction. He rolled his eyes, then ran over, wailing loudly.
Qiao Qiu strolled along, enjoying the scenery and flowers. She was in a good mood, having just gotten rid of a troublesome person. She felt relieved and free. Once she got home, she could calm down and think about what to do next. Her fighting skills were the most important thing.
After traveling for about half an hour, Qiao Qiu finally saw the city gate. She flew over happily, but when she looked up and saw what was written on the gate, her smile gradually froze.
North City.
This is the North City, not the South City. In Feng Yin's memory, there was indeed no crossroads. How could a straight road lead to the North City?
There were many people wanting to enter the city, and before Qiao Qiu could figure it out, she was pushed inside.
The northern city was bustling, its streets still resembling the commercial districts before the apocalypse, lined with towering buildings. The only difference was the abundance of flying objects and incredibly fast cars. Before the apocalypse, this would have been considered top-of-the-line racing; they were practically afterimages.
Miraculously, these cars seem to be transparent; no matter how they drive, they never hit people or objects.
After admiring the surroundings, Qiao Qiu headed towards the restaurant. She had been traveling for half a day, and although she hadn't walked, she was very hungry and tired.
The food in the apocalypse was not as good as before; it was all simple stuff. She went to a ramen shop, ordered a bowl of beef ramen, and it cost her five crystal cores.
Crystal cores are very important. These are extracted from the brains of zombies and mutated beasts by superhumans. Superhumans can use them for cultivation and to restore their physical strength, while ordinary people use them as currency for trade.
Fortunately, she possessed the body of the city lord's daughter, and Feng Yin's father had given her a large sum of crystal cores, all stored in the bracelet space on her wrist. Otherwise, she probably would have had to think twice before even eating this bowl of beef noodles.
After finishing her noodles, Qiao Qiu left the restaurant, hailed a taxi, and asked the driver to take her to a hotel or something.
With that little zombie blocking her way, she had a nagging feeling in her heart; she would rather die than go back now. She wasn't afraid to kill zombies, but the thought of being with them was incredibly stressful.
At that moment, she suddenly remembered the second young master who dared to sleep with a zombie. He was truly a brave warrior!
I reckon they've only just met, and things are probably still developing.
Upon arriving at the hotel, Qiao Qiu quickly paid the bill and checked into a room at the front desk. Just as she was about to go inside, someone called out to her.
"Little sister."
Qiao Qiu turned around and saw a man in a white suit walk in from the door. He had a handsome face with chiseled features, very sculpted and masculine. He looked to be about 1.8 meters tall.
She likes this type.
However, she felt that this scene was a bit tacky.
Princess vs. Prince Charming?
Qiao Qiu cleared her mind of all those random thoughts and gave a polite smile. "What can I do for you?"
