The wind and snow had no intention of stopping, so Shi Lingyao took the initiative to invite the young corpse king into the city.
The three of them sat down in the lobby of Wengcheng's medical clinic.
The resident on duty saluted Shi Lingyao and served them three cups of hot tea before exiting.
The hot tea dissipated the cold air.
Even though a person with abilities is not afraid of cold, they still feel the cold as they should.
It took her a little effort to make the young corpse king want to see her.
Just by insisting on collecting zombies every day, she has persisted until now regardless of the weather.
Finally forced it to show up.
Shi Lingyao didn't intend to go too far. Since people and corpses were here, she should be friendly.
"You have also seen what the tough guy is capable of. It was the two of us working together to hurt that guy today. If it recovers and recuperates before attacking again in the future, it will be difficult for you to survive alone."
The young corpse king was silent for a moment, and finally said: "What should you do?"
Shi Lingyao: "Of course we are in a group. When everyone adds firewood, the flames will be high."
The young corpse king seemed puzzled.
Her white palms spread out, and a red branch appeared in her palms.
Its eyes immediately focused on the red branches.
Shi Lingyao breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. It seemed that even the corpse king who had evolved to the heaven level still couldn't resist the temptation of red branches.
"If you agree to bring your Jincheng to surrender to me, this red branch can be given to you for free."
The young corpse king finally moved his eyes away from the red branches.
Its eyes were covered with a layer of gray haze, and the way it stared at her was a little penetrating: "There is no free banquet in the world."
Shi Lingyao nodded politely: "You are right."
She continued calmly: "So I asked you to bring your Jincheng and surrender to me."
Before the young corpse king could speak, she added: "It's not that I want to rule Jincheng. Jincheng is still your territory and will be ruled by you. However, you need to listen to me and make Jincheng a subsidiary city of Taoyuan City."
Jing Hexuan was silent on the side, drinking tea alone.
The young corpse king was silent for a moment and nodded: "Okay."
Shi Lingyao, who had prepared a bag of words to persuade: "?"
Young Corpse King: "?"
Shi Lingyao coughed lightly and handed over the red branch.
It took it, obviously eager for it, and nodded to her very restrainedly, and then elegantly swallowed the red branch in one bite.
Every bite is elegant, eaten quickly and urgently, but not awkwardly.
With the last sip, a drop of bright red juice fell on the corner of his lips. He raised his hand to wipe it away. Then he stood up and offered his hands to the two of them: "My Lord, Jian Wenyuan."
Jing Hexuan, who pretended he didn't exist, raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "Gong Jian?"
Gongjian Wenyuan turned his head when he heard this and nodded: "That's right."
The young corpse king, also known as Gong Jian Wenyuan, is the only son of the governor of Nanzhou. He became famous at a young age and is recognized far and wide as the future number one scholar.
He died of an epidemic and became a zombie when he was only fourteen years old.
The Gongjian family was distraught and unwilling to accept the reality of their only son's death, so they locked him up in the backyard of their house.
But later, the zombie toxin broke out in full force, and everyone in Gongjian Mansion turned into zombies.
On the contrary, the only son of the Gongjian family who was first imprisoned kept his body intact in the hospital, and later evolved into a heaven-level zombie "Zombie King" by chance.
It is really gratifying to welcome the addition of a general to the Corpse Man clan.
"Since Jincheng has a city lord, you can keep this first." Shi Lingyao said, conjuring a bag of seeds in his palm.
Gongjian Wenyuan was confused: "What is this?"
Shi Lingyao replied: "The seeds can only be used for food. They contain a lot of energy. Eating them for a long time can improve your own abilities, which is equivalent to humans absorbing black crystals."
He took the seeds and said, "Isn't this very valuable?"
"It's not bad..."
Shi Lingyao blinked and smiled slyly: "The effect is very weak. Generally speaking, if you want to improve your strength, you have to rely on me."
Now both of them looked at her.
Jing Hexuan was very interested: "How do you say it?"
Shi Lingyao's brows moved slightly, revealing a little bit of pride: "Why do you think I am so obsessed with earning Xuanjing?"
Jing Hexuan raised his eyebrows: "I saw you absorbed my two bags of mysterious crystals, but you are not..." You are not a human being. Logically speaking, you should not have special skills, let alone use mysterious crystals to enhance your abilities. right.
Everyone understands what is left unsaid.
Shi Lingyao spread his hands: "So I said, I am neither a human nor a zombie."
She no longer pretends to be pretentious: "The zombies transformed by red branches, we call ourselves zombies, the latest half-human, half-zombie? In short, as long as my abilities improve, then the abilities of all zombies will improve simultaneously."
Jing Hexuan suddenly realized, and then his thoughts split: "Then you have to transform me quickly. You and I need to absorb the Xuan Crystal to improve our abilities. After I transform, we only need one Xuan Crystal."
Shi Lingyao: "..."
Gong Jian Wenyuan nodded: "That makes sense, otherwise it would be a waste."
Shi Lingyao waved his hand feebly: "Your transformation is not in a hurry."
Jing Hexuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and the next moment he dropped his eyes in despair: "You still don't trust me?"
Shi Lingyao hesitated, feeling like a scumbag who throws away ruthless things after use: "No, didn't you find a problem?"
Jing Hexuan raised his eyes: "Huh?"
"As we all know, ordinary zombies have no abilities, and the abilities of evolved zombies are only possessed by zombies after they evolve. They are similar to human's special abilities, but they are only limited to Hercules, Sai Juechen, steel and iron bones. Thick defense.”
The two nodded, indicating that this was indeed the case.
“Currently, there are only two treatments and goals for red twig.”
"First, zombies eat red branches. Regardless of whether they are ordinary zombies or evolved zombies, after they are transformed into zombies, they are still at the same level as zombies and have human thinking."
"The second type is that Red Branch sucks the poisonous blood of infected humans, and then the humans recover and become immune, and will no longer be infected by the zombie poison. Similarly, whether or not they have their own abilities has no effect."
Jing Hexuan suddenly realized.
Although Shi Lingyao hadn't finished speaking yet, he understood what she meant.
Gong Jian Wenyuan's face was filled with questions.
"You mean, I am still a human being. In the past cases, humans were infected and had to recover, or zombies transformed into zombies."
Jing Hexuan also frowned as he spoke.
"And I am a human who wants to become a corpse. There has never been such an example before."
Shi Lingyao nodded: "Exactly."
Gongjian Wenyuan: "What if you transform into a zombie first and then a zombie?"
Shi Lingyao: "Then there is a very important question. If he becomes a zombie, will his abilities still exist?"
One word awakens the dreamer.
Gongjian Wenyuan suddenly realized.
"We can't do this rashly. We don't know whether those with abilities turned into zombies, whether they became ordinary zombies or evolved zombies."
"Also, I personally prefer that human ability users lose their skills after being bitten."
Jing Hexuan didn't know what he thought of: "Because there are no other special abilities among zombies?"
Shi Lingyao nodded: "The ability users who have been infected and died are not the only ones with basic abilities like Hercules."
Jing Hexuan was silent, then sighed slightly: "Then we can only discuss it in the long term."
Shi Lingyao nodded in agreement.
"You are all mine. It doesn't matter what race you are for now. We still have important things to do right now."
When Jing Hexuan heard this, he instantly looked satisfied, straightened his back, and asked, "What's the matter?"
Shi Lingyao: "Recruit the bloody zombies."
Jing Hexuan: "?"
