Chapter 167 Dingjiu
The old woman stumbled over to Pu Zhi, panting heavily and crying, "Xiaojiu has special abilities. She was injured while protecting us from the zombies. We don't have medicine, and she has been running a fever since she slept.
Please, doctor, I will work like a slave for you in this life and the next, please save this child!"
As she spoke, the woman was about to kneel down, and the others followed suit. Pu Zhi waved her hand, and an invisible force lifted them up.
At this time, the four men hurried forward, taking off their backpacks as they walked: "We have medicine! We have medicine! We found the medicine this time!"
Pu Zhi stopped the man from stuffing the backpack at her and said calmly, "No need, I can save him."
The owner of the card named Xiaojiu not only has problems with fever, but also malnutrition, which leads to low resistance.
The wound on her waist had been inflamed and filled with pus because it had not been properly treated, emitting a strong odor of decay. The rotten flesh even showed signs of wriggling. Looking through the wound, one could even vaguely see the intestines and internal organs inside.
And on her right rib, there was a square-shaped mark.
Pu Zhi summoned Qing Yin, and the small creature wrapped around her wrist. It stretched out a vine and gently placed it on the girl's forehead. Soon the girl's body temperature dropped.
Then Qingyin placed the branch on the horrific wound on her belly. A faint green light covered the wound, and the good flesh grew rapidly, slowly squeezing out the rotten flesh, and the maggots inside were also driven out.
The entire treatment process took only one minute, and there was no trace of the horrific wound on the girl's stomach. The girl, who was originally dying, also began to breathe steadily.
The man who was still trying to get the medicine was stunned. This must be a healing ability, probably the same as his strength ability...
The old woman stretched out her trembling hand to the girl's forehead, as if it was really not hot anymore.
The girl was awakened, slowly opened her eyes, and looked at the familiar face and a strange but very close girl, and was stunned.
Isn't he already dead...
"How much is the square?" Pu Zhi asked.
The girl didn't react and answered directly in a daze: "2."
Pu Zhi frowned. Diamond 2 was ranked sixth in strength, how could it have fallen to this point?
Everyone has heard Xiaojiu say that she is Diamond 2, and the girl who saved people also knows it. Could she be the same as Xiaojiu?
Pu Zhi then asked, "What talent?"
The girl's eyes froze for a second before she blushed and said, "I remembered wrongly. I've already fallen to the 7 of Diamonds. My talent is puppeteering."
She just looked inward at her sea of consciousness and found that the cards inside had changed from the 2 of spades to the 7 of diamonds. Although Pu Zhi asked about diamonds, she knew which cards she was asking about and subconsciously reported her previous ranking.
Pu Zhi heard about her talent and thought it must be very powerful. She felt the energy fluctuations on her body and asked, "You're only at level three?"
Now most of the zombies are at level three or four, and her level is rising too slowly.
The girl nodded slowly, she knew that her current level was too low.
Pu Zhi looked into her eyes and read her memory directly.
She originally came from a happy family and had just graduated from high school. She had always been well protected by her parents and was a delicate little girl.
As a result, her parents died on the night of the zombie outbreak. She was chosen on the second day of the apocalypse and gained the talent for puppeteering.
But she was too timid to use it, and didn't know how to use it. She even suspected it was fake. If she hadn't accidentally discovered that she had a space of dozens of cubic meters, she wouldn't have believed that the talent was real.
At that time, everyone's talent was at level one, and her ranking was indeed at spade 2.
But later on, she was too weak, hiding whenever possible. She had plenty of food stored at home, and she barely survived the first three months with it. Back then, before the news broke, she didn't even know zombies had crystal cores in their brains, and her talents needed upgrading, so she stayed home.
As a result, she has been stuck at level one. Not only has her ranking dropped, but she can't even defeat zombies.
Later, she slowly made friends and brought everyone to live here. Later, several people joined her. She felt that she could not live in vain any longer, so she started to look for supplies with her friends.
It wasn't until another psychic partner joined her that she learned about the existence of upgrading.
Later, her level began to increase, but the zombies increased their level faster than her. The streets were full of zombies at the same level as her, and half of them were higher than her. She could only hide and dodge with her companions like rats crossing the street.
Half a month ago, a level 4 zombie discovered them. In order to protect everyone, she forcibly controlled five or six level 3 zombies. Although she drove away the level 4 zombie, she was scratched in the stomach by flying debris during the fight and has been bedridden ever since.
Pu Zhi thought about it, and an intermediate contract card disappeared quietly. It would be best if she could join the new base with such a useful talent.
Although the two of them had a contract, Pu Zhi, as the main party, was under deliberate control and could not detect any abnormalities.
"My name is Pu Zhi, 8 of Diamonds. I'll take you to the new base. The zombies there have been cleared out. There are many people with special abilities, and there's food. As long as you work hard or farm, you should be able to eat until you're 70% full."
When they heard that Pu Zhi was going to take them to the new base, everyone in the room was excited. Could they really go?
"I can help you and another psychic reach level five, but the prerequisite is that you must be loyal to the new base in the future. I won't force you to do anything, but you need to stand by the new base. Can you do that?" Pu Zhi looked at the girl.
The girl's eyelashes fluttered slightly as she looked at the thin man who looked like a ghost. She nodded slowly but firmly, "Okay, I promise you, my name is Dingjiu."
After getting her consent, Pu Zhi picked her up in her arms. She was so light that only bones and internal organs weighed more than 60 kilograms.
The sudden lift made Ding Jiu scream out in surprise, and his hands unconsciously wrapped around Pu Zhi's neck. In the quiet corridor, he could only hear Pu Zhi's steady and powerful heartbeat and footsteps. He could feel her well-proportioned and strong arms and the faint fragrance on her body. For some reason, Ding Jiu's ears felt a little hot in the darkness.
Ding Jiu lowered his head, thinking that he was too dirty and wondered if he would stain her clothes...
Pu Zhi walked out quickly: "Everyone go outside."
It's too dark and stuffy in here. Even if you're not sick, you'll get sick.
Everyone supported each other and walked slowly. After being underground for a long time, when they came out, the strong light outside made it impossible for them to open their eyes.
Pu Zhi did not choose the outermost place, but the first floor of a relatively intact building.
She gently put down the Dingjiu. Now, looking from outside, these people's faces were even more sallow, and their hair was almost no longer black, but the yellow color of malnutrition.
Pu Zhi took out buns and soy milk from the space. They had been hungry for a long time and their bodies would not be able to bear eating too greasy food all at once.
Everyone was given a bun and they couldn't wait to eat it up. Even though the soy milk was not hot, they finished it in just a few sips.
My stomach wasn't full, but I felt a sense of satisfaction.
Ding Jiu sat on the ground, tilting his head back and drinking soy milk in small sips. Just now in the basement, he could only see the faint outline of Pu Zhi, but now seeing her from outside, he realized how beautiful she was.
And it was that powerful 8 of Diamonds that saved himself.
