Traveling through troubled times: Princess disguises herself as a man and becomes a soldier to earn

"My spiritual power is on it. I know everything it does and I won't lose control. If it dares to hurt innocent people, I will deal with it. Don't worry, the little reptile is very obedient."

"Okay, let's go find some other people to take a look."

"A Yuan, go ahead. I'll watch here to prevent anyone from playing tricks. If you don't have evidence, it won't work. Go quickly. I'll wait for you to come back."

Not long after, Mo Yuan walked in with a few confused people. Looking at the people sitting aside and eating a pancake, his eyes became more and more confused. What was going on? Were they not awake yet?

How could we see this jerk eating a pancake in this bloody place? She must be a starving ghost who has eaten so much at night and now she starts eating again.

Jiang Li stretched out his hand and waved: "Hello, friends."

He pointed and said, "Si Ling, these are the people of your Yu country. I came out to find food and found these innocent people. Don't worry, they are not dead, they are just unconscious. Why don't you take care of them?"

The sound of someone chewing steamed bread could be heard.

Si Ling frowned and turned to look at the pale-faced Yang Yong: "Hey, can you explain what's going on here?"

Yang Yong lowered his head, looking a little flustered. "I don't know about this either. It should be the missing civilians. If not, I will send someone back to inform the city lord tomorrow morning, and then let the government handle it."

Fortunately, those people were unconscious, otherwise...

"Well, tomorrow, right? That's perfect. I'll also take a look at why so many people died under the jurisdiction of the city lord, and why no one reported it. What did the city lord do in this matter?"

Si Ling's eyes became colder and colder, and a feeling of oppression came over him.

Yang Yong knelt down unconsciously and begged for mercy: "Please spare my life, sir. I was just following orders and had no idea what was going on. I hope you can spare my life."

"Early tomorrow morning, send a pigeon to ask the city lord to come..."

Before he could finish his words, the blood pool began to surge. Seeing this, Jiang Li finished his steamed bun in a few bites, looked at it with shining eyes, and said excitedly: "A Yuan, look, I said there is something in it, I was right, it's not an illusion."

"Shit, what the hell is that."

Everyone stared at the bloody man struggling to get up in the pool of blood. There was no skin on his body, and his flesh and blood were blurred. There were waves of foul odor. Jiang Li covered his nose and said, "It's...too smelly. Can you take a shower?"

"I just finished eating and I vomited because of the fumes. What a waste."

A roar was heard, the bloody man's eyes were full of white, his body exuded the aura of death, there was no heartbeat, and with a mouth full of fangs, he looked no different from a monster. He was more than two meters tall, like a giant.

Yang Yong's eyes trembled slightly, and he said tremblingly: "Young Master, you are awake, hush, don't talk, just let him eat someone at this time."

The bloody man walked over step by step, his white eyes rolling around them and finally falling on Jiang Li, drooling. This man smelled so good and tasted so good.

Jiang Li met those eyes, which were full of murderous intent. What was the difference between this ghost thing and a zombie? Someone used evil magic to create this thing, and this thing must not be allowed to survive.

"Haha, I'm just a piece of meat, you must stare at me and chew it, be careful not to break your teeth, it will be bad, little thing."

"Uncle, do you want to do something about it? If you don't, I'm going to blow his head off. This ghost thing is your young master. Are you sure? How could your short and fat city lord give birth to such a tall son? Don't make fun of him, okay?"

"...!!"

Yang Yong looked at the bloody man's stiff movements, suppressed his fear, and stammered, "Yes, he is my young master, and the city lord's only son. Two years ago, there was an accidental fire in the mansion, and the young master was burned all over. A Taoist priest said..."

"They said that as long as he soaked in human blood, he would slowly grow back. But as time went by, the young master's body shape changed. He became like this. Only by eating humans can he calm down."

"Where are those talisman papers? Why are they gone? No wonder the young master woke up."

Jiang Li's mouth twitched, and he stretched out his hand: "I pulled it, the talisman paper is uncomfortable to look at, evil and bloody, what's the problem, just tell me, can your young master take care of it."

"If I can't do anything about it, he's drooling at me now, so I have no choice but to take action to deal with him. But don't worry, I'll leave the body for you. He's dead now, and there's no living person without a heartbeat."

"Si Ling, what do you think? Don't you feel that this thing has no heartbeat? It seems that its body is occupied by something evil. We should get rid of it as soon as possible."

Si Ling nodded, his expression indifferent: "Okay, this thing offends the princess, if you want, you can deal with it yourself, keep the body, I will go to the city lord to ask what happened."

"If he, the city lord, harms the people, there is no need to keep him."

Jiang Li smiled, his face full of joy. This thing looked too much like a zombie. He couldn't help but feel itchy. He might as well blow its head off. He wondered if he could dig out the crystal core. This thing might be useful.

Maybe it's not the same species, most likely it doesn't exist. Never mind, let's do it first. It's a corpse now, so it would be better to bury it honestly. Why are you jumping around for no reason?

A whip full of lightning appeared, with constant crackling sounds. He looked coldly at the bloody man rushing towards him, then lashed him with the whip with his backhand, sending the bloody man flying and smashing him against the wall.

Jiang Li shook his hands and was about to come back when he saw a figure flying over, hugging the bloody man and shouting, "Son, son, are you okay?"

"Hmm? Lord City Lord."

Ye Rong turned his head and glared at her, his eyes bloodshot: "You came to Jiuyou City, and this city lord treated you well. Why are you doing this now? It's a bit too much to hurt my son."

"Pfft, too much? Old man, do you want to see clearly, this is still your son? He is clearly a monster, a monster with no heartbeat, who only knows how to eat human flesh and blood."

"Why? You are the lord of a city. Your son is a life, but the lives of the people are not lives. Why should you sacrifice other people's lives just to make your son a living dead?"

Jiang Li hated this kind of people the most. They held power and took human lives without restraint. At the beginning of the apocalypse, if it weren't for those rich people who were researching viruses for immortality, there wouldn't have been that disaster.

When Ye Rong heard this, he became frantic and roared, "No, my son is alive. He can talk and move. He is not dead. He is not dead. How dare you."

“… Shit, this is a zombie, you know what I mean? It’s still alive. Damn it. There are so many people here, but it’s blind and it has to stare at me, trying to eat me.”

"You are the lord of the city. You are stronger than the people, so you can take their lives. Now your son has offended me. I am stronger than him, so I can kill him if I want. What's the problem?"
