"What a plague!"
"But we're perfectly fine here, so how did the plague get here?!"
While pondering this, Zhao Youliang got up and invited Li Mao to sit down, then shared half of his breakfast with him.
"Xiao Li, have you heard of anyone else in our town having similar symptoms?!"
"No!" Li Mao slowly shook his head.
"If the infection had spread, we would have been locked down long ago, just like during last year's epidemic."
......
Time flies, and by the time Zhao Youliang finished preparing the memorial tablet for the Deaf Granny, it was already 9:30 in the morning.
He, Liao Zhiyuan, and Li Mao immediately headed towards the place where the temple was being built.
The person who presided over the groundbreaking ceremony was none other than the newly appointed town mayor, Brother Chen Wei.
That's right, Guo Zhengde was promoted after his death, and he was even the kind of person who had the support of the people.
The construction site was already packed with people, and banners were hung everywhere.
The banners all bore slogans similar to cultural promotion.
After all, we live in a civilized society now, and many things cannot be said openly; we can only find another excuse.
Otherwise, it will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.
When the townspeople saw Zhao Youliang arrive, they all clamored for him to come up on stage and say a few words.
Zhao Youliang, who had been bullied since childhood, had never been so admired by so many people, nor had he ever experienced anything like this.
Therefore, he grumbled and blushed, refusing to go up no matter what.
Helpless, everyone could only let Liao Zhiyuan stand in for him and complete the ribbon-cutting ceremony with Brother Chen Wei.
The moment the red cloth was torn, the people below the stage erupted in cheers.
As I said before: after all, it was Zhao Youliang and his gang who saved everyone, so the townspeople were genuinely happy.
After the ribbon-cutting ceremony, the roar of machinery filled the air as an excavator draped in red cloth dug deep into the ground.
At the same time, amidst the crackling of firecrackers, all the construction workers shouted in unison, "Good luck on the start of construction!"
In the midst of the festive atmosphere, Zhao Youliang was about to turn around and leave, pulling Qi Zhigang, who was resting, to go home and chat, when he suddenly heard a gasp from the crowd.
"Hey, I think I've dug something up! It's a coffin!!"
"What?!" Zhao Youliang was stunned upon hearing this, and at the same time thought to himself that it was impossible!
It should be noted that the location for building the temple was carefully selected by them, and it was on a previously vacant lot in the southeast of the town.
From both a feng shui and cultural perspective, it's impossible for a dead person to be buried in this place.
Because the incident happened suddenly, Chen Wei immediately organized staff to evacuate the crowd.
Chen Wei was very popular, so the townspeople were surprisingly cooperative.
A moment later, only a few people, including Zhao Youliang, remained.
The coffin had been completely dug out and was quietly exposed to the sun.
Through his ability to see ghosts, Zhao Youliang could see black energy constantly emanating from it.
Oh my god, is there a giant rice dumpling buried inside?!
A "big zongzi" refers to a corpse with treasure on its body or around it, or to unclean things such as zombies or evil spirits.
It is a coded phrase circulating among tomb raiders.
"You all step back!"
As Zhao Youliang spoke, he and Liao Zhiyuan walked to the edge of the coffin to examine it carefully. Zhao even picked up a handful of soil, looked at it, and smelled it.
The stench of fish and mud immediately filled Zhao Youliang's entire body.
"He really turned into a zombie?!"
Zhao Youliang hurriedly took out four corpse-suppressing talismans and pasted them on the four corners of the coffin, then turned to Chen Wei and said.
"Brother Chen, what's inside has become quite powerful. I suggest we burn it now!"
Dear readers, this is the advantage of Zhao Youliang's personality: he is unpretentious and not pretentious.
Unlike in movies and TV shows, where people know there are zombies inside but still insist on opening it to take a look.
Chen Wei trusted Zhao Youliang completely, and upon hearing this, he immediately instructed the excavator operator to pour some diesel fuel onto the coffin, ready to be set on fire at any time.
But just then, the thing inside the coffin seemed to sense the danger and let out a series of low roars.
The entire coffin even started moving, like a cell phone on vibrate mode.
"No way, is it that fierce?!"
"They dare to cause trouble in broad daylight, even with a corpse-suppressing talisman in place?!"
Upon seeing this, Zhao Youliang quickly bit his left middle finger and used his blood to rapidly draw the "Five Curses" on his right palm. Then he slammed his palm heavily onto the coffin.
It's using the orthodox Taoist palm thunder technique!
As the sound of wind and thunder arose, Zhao Youliang chanted incantations to bless the area.
“The thunder starts from Mount Tai in the east, Mount Heng in the south, Mount Hua in the west, Mount Heng in the north, and Mount Song in the center.”
"May the five thunderbolts strike swiftly, by the power of the law!"
After several more muffled thuds, the contents of the coffin finally fell silent.
Unfortunately, before Zhao Youliang could even exhale, the entire coffin exploded with a loud bang, sending wood chips flying everywhere.
Holy crap!
Amidst the constant cursing, Zhao Youliang and Liao Zhiyuan staggered backward.
One was covering his face, and the other was covering his crotch.
They were all hit by flying wood chips, and blood was seeping from between their fingers.
Amidst his busy schedule, Liao Zhiyuan, clutching his crotch, asked Zhao Youliang.
"Quantum Bro, at such a crucial moment, you should cover your groin. What's the use of covering your face!"
"If it gets pierced all the way down there, then he'll be useless!"
Zhao Youliang, covering his face, remained silent for a long time after hearing this: "Xiao Liao, didn't I already... sigh!"
"Huh?!" Liao Zhiyuan was speechless and deeply sympathetic.
At the same time, Li Mao, Chen Wei, and Qi Zhigang, who were standing at a distance, ran over despite their own danger.
The quick-witted Li Mao even carried a steel pipe, ready to fight the zombies hand-to-hand.
"Quantum, Xiao Liao, are you alright?!"
