Chapter 88



Jiang Heng convulsed as he revived. The moment his brain regained consciousness, he crouched in fear, backing away. "No, no! Please, please forgive me! I was wrong. I really know I was wrong. Please forgive me!"

Sui Jing glanced at the time and smiled, "This time the resurrection time is one hour. It's getting longer and longer."

Before Jiang Heng could hear clearly what Sui Jing said, the next moment, a sharp pain came from somewhere again. He screamed and rolled on the ground, but it was of no use.

After the sharp pain, there is a long period of numbness.

Jiang Heng collapsed to the ground, his body still twitching unconsciously, his pupils dilated and unfocused.

He couldn't remember how many times he had been resurrected. Before this, he thought Wen Xiaoxiao's resurrection ability was a very powerful ability. After all, being able to resurrect himself infinitely was equivalent to having countless lives.

But at this moment, Jiang Heng wished he could die immediately.

The resurrection ability can freely control the resurrection of others, but it is limited to once a day.

A person with the ability to resurrect can resurrect himself countless times, but resurrection is not something he can control at all. Once he dies, the resurrection ability will be automatically triggered, and he will be resurrected.

After countless deaths and resurrections, Jiang Heng developed a strong fear of resurrection.

For him now, death has become the greatest luxury.

There was a knock on the door. Sui Jing stood up and walked slowly to the door and opened it.

Wei Nan stood alone at the door and looked at Sui Jing: "I'm here."

Sui Jing smiled and said, "You're a little late, but it's okay. Come in."

Wei Nan followed Sui Jing into the room in silence.

Bang--

Jiang Heng, who struggled to climb up the window and tried to escape, was pulled back by a huge force and slammed hard against the wall.

"Puff--" Jiang Heng spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling as if his internal organs were displaced. He fell to the ground, breathless, with deep fear and despair in his eyes.

"Want to escape? Why don't you hurry up? Do you have to wait for me to find you?" Sui Jing's voice was gentle, and his mental power condensed into a huge tube, which suddenly pierced into Jiang Heng's heart.

Jiang Heng's pupils shrank, and a large amount of blood gushed out and flowed into the blood bag along the tube condensed by mental power.

Bag after bag was filled.

Sui Jing happily put the blood bag into the space.

Wei Nan, who was standing aside, remained calm and indifferent as he watched.

Jiang Heng died again in pain. Sui Jing patted Wei Nan's shoulder, leaned over to his ear, and said with a smile: "I leave him to you. Don't let him escape."

Wei Nan nodded: "Don't worry."

Sui Jing stood up and left the room.

Wei Nan stood in the room, his dark pupils staring at the breathless Jiang Heng. He glanced around, sat down on the clean sofa, and waited for Jiang Heng to resurrect.

Fan Xin counted the blood in the space.

There are currently 30,000 zombies in the base, including more than 1,000 level 7 zombies, more than 10,000 level 6 zombies, and the rest are basically those that have just been upgraded to level 4.

The blood in her space was barely enough to feed 30,000 zombies.

But the ratio between zombies and humans is too huge.

The human population is less than one percent of the zombie population.

In fact, during this period, Bai Wenrou, Tang Su and Zhang Huai sent many survivors to the base, and Wang Hong and Yu Qinglong sent even more people.

However, since humans and zombies are required to live in harmony, it is naturally impossible to force them to stay.

After knowing that there were zombies in the base, most people left or ran away, unwilling to stay in the Starry Base.

Fan Xin closed his eyes and tapped lightly on the table with his index finger.

When Sui Jing came in, he saw Fan Xin frowning. He walked to her side and stroked her brow with his cold fingers: "What's wrong?"

Fan Xin opened his eyes and leaned back in his chair: "There are too few humans in the base, and we can't keep too many people if we rescue them."

Sui Jing hugged Fan Xin from behind and gently rubbed his chin against her head: "Humans are timid and cowardly. They are full of fear of the unknown, and are even more afraid of things they only half understand."

He smiled and said, "You see, Xiang Xueqian is afraid of us and other zombies, but not Jiang Hao."

Fan Xin was stunned and lowered her head in thought.

Most people are afraid of zombies, not just because they fear that zombies are alien, but because they have a deep-rooted impression in their minds that zombies are mindless walking corpses who are only interested in human flesh and blood.

Fan Xin looked up at Sui Jing's dark red eyes, and she smiled, "Thank you. I've figured out what to do."

Sui Jing lowered his head and kissed her between the eyebrows: "I'm happy to be able to help you. I don't like you to say thank you to me."

She lowered her eyelids to cover the darkness under her eyes. In her previous life, she never said thank you to that person.

In Suijing's memory, humans are only distant towards outsiders, and the word "thank you" often represents distantness.

When Kong Hongxi and his men arrived at the Manor Hotel according to the address given by Fan Xin, they saw the towering base.

"Starry Base?" Kong Hongxi smiled. "Name it after yourself. You're even more narcissistic than me."

"Boss! There, there, there are so many zombies over there!" The younger brother beside Kong Hongxi stuttered and pointed in a direction, his fear evident in his words.

Kong Hongxi looked in the direction that her younger brother pointed. In the square of the base, thousands of zombies were neatly arranged, each of them like a soldier ready for battle.

Kong Hongxi: "..."

"Boss, have we come to the wrong place?" The younger brothers behind Kong Hongxi looked at the zombies coming and going everywhere in the base, their hair standing on end, wondering if they had entered a zombie lair.

Kong Hongxi lowered her head and opened the address Fan Xin had written for her, feeling a little uncertain: "This is definitely the address..."

Did she really come to the wrong place?

"People in front, are you coming in or not? If not, don't block the way!" A rough shout came from behind.

Kong Hongxi turned around and saw a team of about 20 to 30 people walking hurriedly inside. The team was all humans.

Kong Hongxi waved his hand and asked his younger brothers to move aside.

Li Da and the others behind him hurried into the base: "Hurry up, hurry up, everyone, hurry up, don't waste time until dark!"

The food we brought back last time was too little and was quickly eaten up.

After their boss and several captains discussed it together, they all felt that it was very dangerous to come to a base full of zombies to trade. The reason they left so easily last time might be to let down their vigilance.

But exchanging blood for food is indeed tempting. After thinking for a while, everyone finally unanimously decided to come and exchange food.

This time they drove a big truck and brought 30 people. Each person drew 400ml of blood, which is 12L. If we exchange 12L for food, we should be able to get a lot back.

This group of people hurried into the base and headed straight to the grain store under the leadership of Li Da.

Kong Hongxi looked at the group of people rushing in, then looked at the younger brother behind him: "Will anyone rush to the zombie lair?"

And she clearly saw that when those people entered the base, the zombies in the base did not react at all. They just did what they were supposed to do and ignored them.

Suddenly, a zombie with scarlet pupils walked out and looked at Kong Hongxi: "Kong Hongxi?"

Kong Hongxi's pupils shrank in shock. Zombies could actually speak? But she remained calm: "I am."

The zombie nodded and said, "I'm Jiang Hao. Let's go. The boss asked me to take you to the grain store to exchange for food. From now on, if you want to exchange food, go to the grain store. If you want to exchange other things, just go to the supermarket."

Kong Hongxi was silent for a while: "Who is your boss?"

Jiang Hao said with a half-smile: "This base belongs to my boss. What's the matter? The name is not obvious enough."

Kong Hongxi: "..."

This zombie can not only talk, but also taunt people!

"What are you still standing there for? Are you going or not?" Jiang Hao said impatiently.

Kong Hongxi rubbed her temples: "Of course."

"Boss——" The younger brothers behind him were all worried.

Kong Hongxi rolled her eyes at them and said, "Follow me, anyone who's afraid can stay outside. I, Kong Hongxi, don't have any cowards under my command!"

Her meaning was very clear. If you don't want to go in, then don't follow her, Kong Hongxi, in the future.

Everyone looked at each other and saw that Kong Hongxi had already followed Jiang Hao in. They gritted their teeth and followed.

When Kong Hongxi arrived at the grain shop, Li Da and the others were still negotiating with Xu Yan.

As Li Da had been there once, he boldly bargained with Xu Yan.

"100ml for ten kilograms of rice is too expensive. We are old customers, so you can give us a discount. How about this, a fixed price, 12L for two thousand kilograms." Li Da spoke of the price reduction with trepidation, fearing that Xu Yan would rush over and bite him if she got impatient.

"Yes, beautiful sister, you are a beautiful and kind person, so just give us a discount. In business, we should keep doing business. We will come here often to exchange food in the future." Compared to Li Da's timidity, a young man behind him was very bold and shouted with a smile.

Xu Yan's crimson eyes swept over the young man and she said calmly, "12L of blood, 1,500 kilograms of rice, and a refrigerator that can store food for a month."

She looked at Li Da: "12L and two thousand kilograms will do, only food."

Li Da: "..."

He knew that the refrigerator Xu Yan was talking about was definitely not the kind used before the apocalypse, but the ice box that they had used to exchange things last time to deliver the food back to the base intact.

If there were no storage materials, 1,500 kilograms of rice would probably go bad in a few days. After all, there were no spatial ability users in their base.

Li Da was extremely distressed. He wanted both the 500 kilograms of rice and the ice box that could store the food.

He looked at Xu Yan pitifully and asked, "Can you give me two thousand kilograms of rice and a refrigerator?"

Xu Yan refused coldly: "No."

The young man behind Li Da stared at Xu Yan eagerly. Before he could say anything, Xu Yan gave him a look: "Flattering is not acceptable."

young people:"……"

Kong Hongxi watched what was happening in the grain shop in a daze, feeling that it was a bit like the bargaining scene in a big shopping mall before the end of the world.

Li Da and his group gathered together to discuss the matter in a dilemma. Five hundred kilograms of rice would be enough for the people in their base to eat for several days. They were reluctant to give it away, but they really had no way to preserve the food.

Xu Yan didn't care what they were discussing and looked at Kong Hongxi: "Want to exchange for food?"

Kong Hongxi nodded: "Well, what is the current price?"

Xu Yan took out a price list and handed it to Kong Hongxi.

100ml of rice equals ten pounds.

100ml rabbit meat per piece.

200ml per chicken or duck.

100ml of pork per pound.

300ml per pound of fish and shrimp.

One 100ml watermelon.

Oranges are 100ml per pound.

………………

Kong Hongxi's eyes widened as she looked at them. She had no idea there were so many types before.

She calculated the blood in the space, a total of 4800L, 3000L could be used here, and the rest could be found at the supermarket.

The main reason why Kong Hongxi was able to collect so much blood this time was that there was enough food in the space, so she did not come to exchange food with Fan Xin in the past few months, and the blood was stored in the space.

She came over when the food was running out.

"I want 1000L of blood worth of rice, 1000L of blood worth of various meats, and then 1000L of blood worth of fruit." Kong Hongxi said.

Li Da and others who were still struggling nearby suddenly turned their heads and stared at Kong Hongxi.
