Chapter 51: Fifty-one Days of Salted Fish



051:

Sang Luo elegantly scooped a spoonful of fried rice into her slightly parted red lips, her eyebrows raised slightly. "Or do you want me to do it?"

The bald man came back to his senses, tore his eyes away from the dishes with difficulty, and said quickly, "No, no, no, Master, how can I ask you to do such a small thing for me?"

He secretly cursed himself for not being perceptive enough.

There is no shortage of food.

How can I be greedy for my master’s dinner!

Seeing him walking towards her with a fierce look on his face, Tang Jie's pupils contracted.

The strands of black that permeated the whites of his eyes seemed to have been forced to fade away.

"No..." She squeezed out a sound from her throat, "No need."

Bald: “?”

He stopped and asked: "You don't want to die?"

A moment ago, the other party had a dead look on her face and asked them to finish her off in a very serious and solemn manner.

Baldy didn't lose his memory.

Tang Jie turned her gaze towards Sang Luo, and from her chaotic thoughts, she picked up the word "master" from the bald man's words. She didn't know what to say, so she subconsciously whispered, "Why do you call her master?"

The bald man puffed out his chest, his face brimming with pride, and said in a resounding voice, "Because I am the master's servant."

Tang Jie: “…”

Is she going to turn into a zombie and lose her mind?

Why she couldn't quite understand what this person said.

...Can being a slave be so happy and proud?

And why should you be someone else's servant for no reason?

These thoughts only lasted less than a second before Tang Jie suddenly asked Sang Luo, "You're pretty good, aren't you?"

Sang Luo didn't ignore her. He replied with two words in a friendly manner: "Guess."

In Tang Jie's ears, it became the word "yes".

She straightened her upper body slightly and murmured, "As long as I hold on, I will eventually become human again and become as powerful as her..."

The bald man was close enough to hear her mumblings and said without hesitation, "That's impossible. My master is the strongest person alive. You can only dream of being as powerful as her."

Gu Qingchuan: “…”

This is probably because they are hoping that Tang Jie will rekindle her determination to die.

Fortunately, Tang Jie didn't seem to hear what the bald man said.

Or perhaps she was so lost in her own thoughts that the sounds from outside could no longer reach her ears.

The bald man stood there awkwardly, looked back at Gu Qingchuan, and squinted his eyes, meaning: Should I still kill her to make her feel better?

Gu Qingchuan almost rolled his eyes.

He shook his head with a wooden face.

The person involved doesn't want to die anymore, so why should we give him a quick death?

"Where is Chen Youshuang?" Sang Luo seemed to have finally realized that one person was missing.

Gu Qingchuan and the bald man were stunned. The former thought for a moment and said, "She went to look around to see if she could find some useful supplies."

When everyone was eager to help Gui Chenggong, Chen Youshuang took on the task of collecting useful supplies.

But if Sang Luo hadn't mentioned it, they wouldn't have thought of this person.

The system scanned and did not find Chen Youshuang within a kilometer.

Maybe he felt the surroundings were safe, so he ran a little far away.

Instead, he scanned the video of Gui Chenggong making soup, and was so amused by it that he immediately forwarded it to Sang Luo.

——At the same time, I also breathed a sigh of relief. Although I really stewed myself, fortunately, I would not be stewed to death.

"This turtle has the ability to turn zombies back into humans. Even if it's limited in time, it's worth a lot."

The system is excited:

"Host, maybe if it breaks through and reaches S-level, it might be able to completely restore the zombies to human form."

Sang Luo was impatient: "Get to the point."

System: "The point is, this is a mascot. It's very useful and suitable to be kept around."

Instead of eating!

After listening, Sang Luo thought for a moment: "You're right, it's convenient to eat continuously."

system:"???"

system:"……"

The system is deeply muted.

Not long after, Hu Lingling and Gui Chenggong walked in with a pot of soup.

The soup with a strange aroma attracted the attention of everyone except Sang Luo.

Including Tang Jie who was immersed in her own thoughts.

Gui Chenggong said: "Your Majesty, this is the soup I made myself. Please try it, it must be delicious."

I drank it when it was in the pot, it was delicious.

Tang Jie: “?”

Why is Her Majesty the Queen here again?

Did she turn into a zombie soon, so her hearing became insensitive?

Although you can't see the meat in the soup, the broth is as milky white as milk. Add potatoes, fungus and other vegetables to garnish it, and it has a unique aroma that makes people's mouths water at the mere smell.

Sang Luo ate a bowl.

The healing effect was as she expected, and it was indeed good.

The injuries were recovering visibly.

Then he stood up, saying "I'll go back tomorrow", and walked into the inner room.

The bedroom in the inner room was the cleanest and most luxurious room in the area, and she had asked the system to scan it long ago.

Hu Lingling knew that she was going to sleep, so she hurried in.

Sang Luo took out clean bedding from the space, and Hu Lingling skillfully replaced the original bedding on the bed with them. She also took out a few flower seeds from her pocket, ripened them and placed them on the bedside.

When Sang Luo came out of the bathroom with a facial mask on, the room was already filled with a light floral scent.

"Luo Shen, let me give you a massage." Hu Lingling prepared to give you a massage.

"No need." Sang Luo said lightly, "Go out."

After Hu Lingling left the room, Sang Luo threw the triangular black coffin to the ground.

This thing doesn't have a single crack, and even several S-level sea monsters can't open it.

The system speculated: "Perhaps this holds the secret of why Sea City has become so bizarre and why an S-class sea monster was born so early."

It has already imagined that there is some kind of life form inside that can promote the mutation of sea monsters.

Sang Luo lowered his eyes and looked at the black coffin.

The long eyelashes cast a black shadow on the transparent film paper.

She moved her fingertips, sparks leaped, and then sank into the lifeless black coffin.

——Gui Chenggong stuffed many beads that glow at night on the walls of his residence.

This is actually a condensation inside the body of a sea monster, which is used as a wall lamp.

The light emitted by one bulb is not strong, but if you put dozens or hundreds of them on the wall, at night, the light is almost as bright as that of a light bulb.

After Hu Lingling left the room, she shared the soup in the bowl with everyone.

Gui Chenggong fed Tang Jie a little clumsily, and the latter stared at Gui Chenggong while eating.

"Isn't it delicious?" Gui Chenggong asked in confusion.

Tang Jie didn't say anything, her expression was complicated.

At this moment, everyone felt the powerful pressure coming from the inner bedroom.

The wooden door of the bedroom seemed to be flashing with sparks and crackling.

Hu Lingling and the others just took a look, then looked away as if it was normal and continued drinking their soup.

Gui Chenggong thought: She is worthy of being Her Majesty the Queen. She can create such a grand scene even when she is sleeping.

Maybe the soup it makes has some credit for this.

Tang Jie stared at the bedroom door in fascination.

The darkness spread in her eyes and evil thoughts grew: her intuition told her that if she ate that woman, she would become very strong.

The strange vision from the bedroom lasted for about a minute, and the powerful momentum and pressure disappeared completely.

However, immediately afterwards, a creepy breath overflowed from the gap in the door.

Just a little bit caused the temperature in the whole room to drop rapidly.

Everyone's scalp tingled and a chill ran down their spines. Hu Lingling and the other two quickly gathered together, looking anxiously at the bedroom door.

This breath made them feel as if they were in a bottomless abyss, surrounded by darkness and ghosts.

It’s amazing!

A few of them looked at each other and thought in unison: Is Luo Shen testing something?

Or what went wrong?

Especially Gu Qingchuan's expression kept changing. He was the only one who noticed that Sang Luo seemed injured, but he didn't dare to confirm with Sang Luo - he would definitely not get an answer even if he asked.

He was worried about whether Sang Luo was in danger in the house at the moment.

Just as Gu Qingchuan was about to force his way into the bedroom despite the fearful atmosphere that made him uneasy, to see if he could help Sang Luo, all the strange visions suddenly disappeared, as if nothing had happened, as if what they had just perceived was an illusion.

Everyone looked at each other.

Gu Qingchuan was almost at the bedroom door and couldn't help but raise his voice softly: "Shen Luo?"

After a moment, Sang Luo's familiar lazy voice came from inside: "It's okay, play your games."

Only then did they feel relieved.

In the bedroom, Sang Luo had already opened the seamless black triangular coffin.

It wasn't very difficult.

This thing is extremely hard, even S-class sea monsters can't open it, which shows that brute force is useless.

Sure enough, as she expected, after being injected with lightning - that is, electrified - it responded.

The system was stunned.

This thing is actually a high-tech product!

After power is turned on, the surface of the black coffin presents a silver texture like a data stream. To open it, you need to enter a password.

Matters related to professional matters will naturally be left to the system.

The system was genuinely curious about the origin of this thing and what was inside, so it immediately put all its efforts into deciphering it—after all, it was a system.

This time Sang Luo was not disappointed. The system worked hard and cracked the code in no time.

The black coffin snapped and turned into a silver capsule as tall as a person. There was a mechanical handle on the side. When pressed, the capsule opened.

While scanning the things inside, the system sighed that the host was right.

There is indeed a living organism inside, but there are no signs of life.

It was a...paper man as thin as paper.

Or it should be said that it is a "person" that is gradually growing, with a head, torso, and limbs. The capsule is like the mother's womb, it is nurturing.

This process was disrupted by Sang Luo and "TA" died.

The nurturing body lost its vitality, broke apart, and turned into a soft paper man.

The system was baffled: "It's like a new human being was born."

It seems that there are fewer and fewer survivors in this world, so the planet automatically begins to give birth to new humans.

And they skip directly the infancy and enter adulthood.

The problem is that this situation never happens in the novel.

It is also possible that this is a new type of monster.

Judging from the evil aura he exudes, this speculation is tenable.

But no matter which one it is, it makes the system feel... as if it is out of line and causing trouble.

Combined with what the sea monsters said, it appears in the form of a crack, luring passing life forms to come closer and jump in.

Then these living things become the nutrients for their growth.

The first crack encountered did not emit any tempting information.

Perhaps realizing that Sang Luo was not someone to be trifled with, he chose not to attack.

Who would have thought that Sang Luo would greet them with a few tons of garbage and lightning without saying a word, scaring the other person so much that he shut up immediately to avoid interrupting his development.

System: "Host, look there, it's numbered 0-23."

"There can't be many of these things," it said dryly. "Is it unique to Haicheng, or are they found all over the world?"

Sang Luo: "What do you think?"

system:"……"

I'm asking you this.

Sang Luo peeled off his mask and stared at the paper corpse calmly: "Not only are they found all over the world, I'm afraid there are many types."

system:"……!"

Just as it was waiting for Sang Luo to say something, it heard its host say, "It looks like it's edible."
