Chapter 164: Walking Corpse
Song Ningshu was lying on the ground, her wet hair stuck to her face. The green mist in her dantian quickly repaired her wounds, and the injured area on her abdomen had stopped bleeding.
"Master, I can't move." Bai Yao said with a sad face.
Bing Ling didn't say anything, but he was the same, unable to lift a single finger.
"I'm almost there." Song Ningshu moved his fingers. Just now, all of them were holding on and challenging their limits.
With the continuous movement, the toxin has been circulating in circles throughout the body along with the blood.
It took all of my willpower to lift the sword just now.
The man had come up to them, looking down at the three people lying on the ground.
"Thank you for saving me." Song Ningshu met his gaze.
"Still alive?" the man asked without any expression, but there was a flash of surprise in his eyes.
Although the Sea Giant Seal is only at the peak of the seventh level, many eighth-level sea beasts avoid it because of its extremely domineering poison.
Ordinary people who were poisoned by the giant sea otters would die within a quarter of an hour. But looking at the appearance of these two beasts, they were only paralyzed.
"Still alive." Song Ningshu curled the corners of his mouth.
With Wu Hai's continuous efforts, her right hand was able to move. With a flick of her wrist, she took Bai Yao and Bing Ling into the space inside her body.
The space inside the body is more conducive to their recovery.
I still have some pain in my abdomen, but it's getting better.
Xie Huaiyi's eyes moved, "Can you stand up?"
It was the first time he had seen someone whose wounds healed quickly and automatically, and who could also detoxify automatically, without taking any elixirs.
"Not yet."
It will take another hour for the poison to be completely removed.
Xie Huaiyi was in a dilemma and remained silent.
Song Ningshu stared at him, feeling a little awkward.
After a while, Xie Huaiyi bent down and picked up Song Ningshu.
There are more than just high-level sea beasts like the giant sea bream in the Cangyun Sea. It would undoubtedly be dangerous to leave her here alone.
The moment he hugged him, Xie Huaiyi felt the long-lost warmth transferred from her body to his skin.
Xie Huaiyi's eyes changed several times.
Xie Huaiyi's body temperature was very low, and the cold air was transmitted directly to Song Ningshu. Even Song Ningshu, who had ice spiritual roots, felt cold, and she curled up her fingers.
Song Ningshu felt very awkward being hugged by a stranger, but she didn't say anything.
She couldn't possibly enter the internal space in front of him. Bai Yao and Bing Ling could be said to have entered the spirit pet bracelet, but she couldn't explain it.
"Human, where are you going?" Xie Huaiyi asked.
"My name is Song Ningshu." Song Ningshu said helplessly, "Yanglan City is just ahead. Just find an inn and drop me off."
She was almost able to move by then.
"Yeah." Xie Huaiyi had no objection.
Song Ningshu...
Xie Huaiyi looked down at the woman in his arms. Seeing her disheveled appearance, it was hard to associate her with the person she was rumored to be.
There was a madness in her. Even though she knew she couldn't win, she still stubbornly faced the challenge, just like him back then.
"Xie Huaiyi." Xie Huaiyi said, not knowing what he was thinking.
Song Ningshu was stunned for a moment, and it took her a while to realize that he was saying her name.
Xie Huaiyi, a peerless genius of the Sea Clan, is the patriarch of the Xie family, the largest family, and also the youngest patriarch in the history of the Xie family. He is only 500 years old now, and Yanglan City is the Xie family's base camp.
It is not surprising that Xie Huaiyi would pass by Cang Yunhai.
Xie Huaiyi brought Song Ningshu back to the Xie family.
"Do you need me to find someone to help you change your clothes?" Xie Huaiyi asked.
Song Ningshu was a little surprised. "Please ask a maid to guard the door. I will be able to act on my own later."
She could see that Xie Huaiyi was not a bad person, but he was not a very kind person either.
Before he picked her up, the confusion and disgust in his eyes were not concealed at all.
Song Ningshu felt a little helpless. She never expected that there would be a day when she would be disliked by others.
Xie Huaiyi nodded and left without saying anything.
He hid his eyes, feeling reluctant.
Warmth is always something we crave, especially when it is the first time we feel it since childhood.
When the time came, Song Ningshu got up from the bed and opened the door.
"Fairy, do you have anything you need me to do?" Seeing Song Ningshu, the maid outside the door bowed and asked respectfully.
"Please help me get some hot water." Song Ningshu said.
Although the people of the sea tribe live in the sea, their houses, cities, etc. are all separated from the sea water by barriers.
Although she can clean herself with the Dust Purification Technique, she still prefers to wash with water if possible.
"yes."
After the maid brought water, Song Ningshu took a bath and changed into a smoky green robe. This robe was the gift that Song Xianning had given her when she was about to form a core.
Song Ningshu adjusted his breathing for a while, then opened the door and went out.
"What is your master doing?" Song Ningshu asked the maid.
"I don't know."
"Forget it, I'm leaving soon. Please ask someone to tell him the message." After all, it's not polite to leave without saying goodbye.
"No need. I'm going to the human realm too, so we can go together." Before the maid could answer, Xie Huaiyi's voice rang out.
"Oh." Song Ningshu responded.
Xie Huaiyi slightly shifted his gaze and summoned his mount, the Deep Sea Blue Peng.
Because Bing Ling's injury had not yet recovered, Song Ningshu and Xie Huaiyi rode together.
The two were not familiar with each other and were not talkative, so they remained silent all the way.
The Deep Sea Blue Peng flew out of the South China Sea and landed above the Extreme Fire Mountains of the human race.
"My destination this time is the Jihuo Mountains. I'll say goodbye now." Xie Huaiyi lowered his eyes and looked at her.
"Thank you for seeing me off." Song Ningshu said.
The Deep Sea Blue Peng is very fast, and if Song Ningshu were to step into the air himself, it would take a lot of time.
"Yeah." Xie Huaiyi nodded slightly, and sent her out of the Jihuo Mountains, leaving behind her back.
Song Ningshu was a little confused. What was Xie Huaiyi, a cultivator with ice spiritual roots, doing in the Jihuo Mountains?
She shook her head slightly. This was not her business and had nothing to do with her.

The people live in Nanzhou and Zhongning City.
In just one day, the entire Zhongning City turned into a hell on earth.
I saw people wandering around the city. Their eyes were wide open, their gazes were dull, their faces were ashen, and their exposed skin was full of blue veins, as if it would burst at any moment. Their eyes were red, their teeth were sharp, and they would bite anyone they saw.
No, they no longer possess human consciousness, but are more like walking corpses that bite living humans by instinct.
It had only been half an hour since Gu Qingyue entered Zhongning City, and Zhongning City had become like this.
Not only mortals, but also many cultivators who settled in Zhongning City were transformed into this half-human, half-ghost appearance.
The ground, walls, and pillars in Zhongning City were all spurting with blood.
Gu Qingyue waved away the zombies that wanted to rush up and bite him, and put on a protective shield to isolate himself from the smell.
He frowned and said nothing. As early as when he entered Zhongning City, he found that there was something wrong with the people in Zhongning City. They all had a gray and tired look on their faces, as if someone had drained all their energy.
Before Gu Qingyue could figure out the situation, Zhongning City had become what it is today.
Gu Qingyue condensed a ball of thunder in his hand and rescued several people who were being chased by zombies.
"Thank you, Immortal!" Those people who survived the disaster burst into tears.
"Follow me." Gu Qingyue also put a protective shield on them.
"Yes, yes!" The men responded hurriedly and moved closer behind him.
"Wait." Gu Qingyue's eyes passed by a tall middle-aged man.
"What, what's wrong?" The man felt a little guilty, his eyes avoided and he hid his hands behind his back.
"You were bitten." Gu Qingyue said in a deep voice.
After hearing Gu Qingyue's words, the people who were close to the man immediately ran away and stayed far away.
They had seen clearly that those who were bitten became like the man-eating monsters within a quarter of an hour.
"I, I don't want to die, please save me, Immortal!" The middle-aged man suddenly knelt on the ground and begged Gu Qingyue in a pitiful voice.
"Get up first. This is the Hundred Poison Pill. Try it and see if it works." Gu Qingyue sighed in his heart.
Those who have turned into zombies have no breath left and are contaminated with death energy. They cannot be saved. We can only try to see if the Hundred Poison Pill is effective on those who have not turned into zombies yet.
"Thank you, Immortal, thank you, Immortal!" The man quickly took the pill and swallowed it, then kowtowed to Gu Qingyue repeatedly.
"You don't have to do this." Gu Qingyue helped him up and cast a soul-binding spell on the man. "I'll tie you up first, and then I'll let you go if everything is normal."
"Okay!" The middle-aged man had no choice but to agree.
In this way, some survivors gradually gathered around Gu Qingyue. Those who were scratched were given the Hundred Poison Pill according to the previous method and then tied up for a quarter of an hour.
Fortunately, anyone who was scratched or bitten would be fine after taking the pill, but he couldn't guarantee that the Hundred Poison Pill would work for everyone.
As expected, one of them turned into a corpse after taking the pill, and Gu Qingyue used his spiritual power to deal with him.
