Yang Jinxia had also secretly discussed with Zhu Caining and Jiang Lecheng whether their leader might really have traveled from ancient times, as she seemed to have kung fu skills when killing zombies, wielding a sword and slashing away.
People looked over and saw that everyone was holding a meal, with a basin of water next to them and disposable cups next to the basin.
Several people looked at each other, then walked over, rubbing their stomachs: "Do you have any extra food? Could you give us some? We haven't eaten for two days."
In this situation, everyone would be as quiet as quails. Xie Qingye stood up helplessly, "I'm really sorry, as you can see, I have a large family, including children and the elderly. We only have this much food left, and it's not enough for everyone. How could there be any extra?"
One of the older children pointed at Chen Zui and said, "He's holding a lollipop in his hand!" He then reached out to snatch it.
The parents standing by didn't stop them; in fact, they hoped their children could grab some, even if it meant grabbing just a little.
Chen Zui picked up the lunchbox with both hands, stuffed the candy into his mouth, stood up and dodged, then freed one hand, which was covered in a ball of liquid. He glared at them angrily, as if to say, "Dare to come and try?"
Zhu Caining, who was closest to him, also changed her expression. What did that mean? Was he trying to steal it?
The adult, perhaps seeing that he could actually condense some kind of supernatural power, instantly reached out and pulled the child back.
"It's just a joke, just a joke." She said awkwardly, then pulled the child away.
Chen Zui then withdrew his superpower, took out the lollipop again, held it in his hand, and ate his boxed lunch.
When those people saw that even such a young child had superpowers, they immediately stopped daring to approach.
That's just how people are; as long as someone acts a little aggressively, they'll bully the weak and avoid the strong.
After eating, we tidied up a bit. Usually, Zhang Yiyang would burn the trash, but with so many people around, it wasn't convenient to go outside. So we put it in a trash bag and dealt with it tomorrow.
Xie Qingye removed the towel from Grandpa Chen's forehead; the ice inside had melted.
Upon seeing this, Yang Jinxia immediately conjured a small new block of ice.
Xie Qingye wrapped the towel around Chen's forehead again and placed it on his forehead.
While everyone was resting, Ye Shang stepped forward and gently channeled a wisp of energy cultivated from the Energy Control Technique into Grandpa Chen's body.
She didn't know if it would work. She hadn't done this when Zhu Caining and the others had fevers before. It was only after seeing the dark circles gradually appearing under Grandpa Chen's eyes that she decided to give it a try.
In the middle of the night, Zhang Yiyang was on night watch. He sat bored on the coffee table, holding a comic book he had asked Ye Shang for. He slowly read through the pages, not wanting to finish it all at once, as that would be even more boring.
Just then, Grandpa Chen started trembling all over and kept making a 'ho' sound.
Someone in the hall was woken up by the noise and looked over in alarm. Even Zhang Yiyang quickly put down his comic book, jumped to his side, and pressed his shoulder, calling out, "Grandpa Chen, Grandpa Chen."
The others were also awakened. Chen Zui was almost the quickest to react. He rushed over and almost cried out, "Grandpa, Grandpa, what's wrong?"
Some people in the hall were looking this way, saying, "What else can happen? It's going to turn into a zombie. Let's kill it quickly so it won't suffer later."
"Yes." "Yes." "Exactly."
When someone speaks, others will agree, and there are quite a few people who agree.
At this moment, Grandpa Chen's face showed signs of struggle and pain, and dark circles were gradually appearing under his eyes, which startled everyone.
Ye Shang walked over, his brows furrowing slightly. Could it be that the Energy Control Technique was useless?
Thinking of this, she almost cursed herself under her breath, wondering if she wouldn't have turned into a zombie prematurely if she hadn't channeled the energy from the Energy Control Technique.
"Wait a minute."
As soon as everyone heard her speak, their expressions calmed down, and they felt a strange sense of trust, as if Grandpa Chen would really get better soon.
Grandpa Chen lay on the sofa, his hands and legs bound, struggling violently. Veins bulged on his wrinkled face, and he made noises constantly.
Almost everyone in the hall was woken up. Although this was the norm, they still woke up on high alert.
The middle-aged man walked over again, frowning, and said, "This is already a sign of zombification. Sigh, you guys..." Why insist on it?
Chen Zui cried as Zhang Yiyang held him, tears streaming down his face, softly calling out "Grandpa" over and over again.
Xie Qingyuan and the others remained silent. In the past, when they had a fever, they were usually quiet and didn't feel any pain. At most, they would feel hot and uncomfortable. But when their superpowers were awakened, they were filled with a sense of power and didn't feel tired at all. Their bodies felt as if their souls had been cleansed, and they would feel relaxed all over.
The scene before them silenced everyone. This situation was all too familiar; their classmates, teachers, and other passersby they encountered along the way all looked the same.
Even Chen Zui knew what was going on.
Ye Shang watched Grandpa Chen struggle intently, and half an hour later, she sensed a force resisting something...
