Three days later, Gu Shijiu was holding a coffin in her arms, staring wide-eyed at the twisted zombie in front of her.

The zombie was furious: "What's wrong with you, woman? Stealing someone else's coffin!"

"I woke up in this coffin, how did it become yours?" Gu Shijiu clung to the coffin, refusing to let go.

She now realizes that the coffin can actually store energy.

The scattered energy in the cemetery will slowly drift into the coffin.

If she lies back in, she can absorb that energy.

Gu Shijiu only discovered the coffin after hearing from the old ghosts in the tomb that the coffin had buried itself again after she left.

If it weren't for this coffin, the dissipated energy would have been too minuscule for her to detect.

When she woke up, her body was in pieces; how badly must it have been before?

They might just wake up and filming will be over, and they won't even be able to get up.

"Do you know that I am the patriarch of the zombie clan? You stole the patriarch's coffin, which is a capital offense!"

The zombie awoke in a dilapidated field, sensed its coffin calling to it, and hurried over.

Gu Shijiu almost cried out of grievance; there were so many unreasonable people in this little world.

Seeing this, Shi Qi quickly spoke up for her: "You said this is yours, will it respond when you call it?"

The zombie grinned: "Old buddy, come here already!"

The coffin in Gu Shijiu's arms actually started to vibrate.

"What kind of evil magic did you use?" Gu Shijiu pressed down on the coffin lid to prevent it from flying away.

Knowing she was in the wrong, Shi Qi touched her nose, hid to the side, and stopped talking.

The zombie was so enraged that its three spirits leaped up, glaring fiercely at Gu Shijiu: "This is blatant robbery!"

Seeing that the zombie was not only stealing things but also baring its teeth and stretching out its fangs, Gu Shijiu was a little scared and threw a punch at it.

"It's clearly mine, how can you be so unreasonable?"

The zombie stretched out its fist and took the punch head-on, its arm making a cracking sound as if its bones were breaking.

The zombie was secretly shocked by the immense force.

His right arm hung limply at his side, five finger bones lay on the ground, his forearm was comminuted, and a section of bone from his upper arm protruded outwards, like a broken umbrella rib.

Gu Shijiu suffered the most severe injury in this world.

My wrist was swollen like a radish, the bones inside were dislocated and covered with cracks, and my upper arm was also dislocated.

Gu Shijiu proudly shook her dislocated arm at Shi Qi: "I won."

The zombie face became even more rigid: Damn it, he's sick.

"Doesn't it hurt?" Shi Qi frowned, holding her dislocated arm, unsure of what to do.

"It's alright, you've forgotten that I learned a lot from Dr. Chen." Gu Shijiu lowered her head and adjusted her bones.

Because of her powerful regenerative abilities, most of her bones have grown back, though they are not in the correct position.

So Gu Shijiu broke the crooked bone, set it back up, and then realigned the dislocated upper arm.

The zombie exclaimed in surprise, "You're a doctor?"

He tried to set the bone like Gu Shijiu, but he couldn't do it no matter what he did; his swaying arm seemed to be mocking him.

Technical talent is respected everywhere, the zombie said shamelessly, pushing the bone towards him: "Can you help me fix it too?"

Gu Shijiu tilted her head and looked at him, frowning, thinking that the zombie in front of her must have something wrong with his brain.

"No!" Gu Shijiu shook her head.

The zombie indeed gave up on the coffin: "I don't want this anymore, you can have it, and you can teach me how to set bones."

Because of frequent injuries, the zombie's bones are often broken. Although they can heal, they grow back crookedly.

Gu Shijiu immediately corrected him: "This was originally mine!"

"It's yours, it's yours. How about this, I'll teach you how to use it, and you teach me bone setting, okay?"

The zombies easily abandoned their home.

Gu Shijiu was an easy person to talk to, and nodded reluctantly in agreement.

Only the coffin in her arms emitted a mournful cry, shaking as if it were about to fall apart.

"This coffin was made by my father from a thousand-year-old locust tree..." the zombie rattled off the effects.

It was previously only regarded as a spirit-gathering array, which was a real waste of its potential.

As they were talking, Gu Shijiu had already broken and straightened the crooked bones of the zombies, and then they just had to wait for them to heal on their own.

She spent several more days imparting all her knowledge of bone setting to the zombie.

Fortunately, this zombie was quite clever and learned quickly.

Gu Shijiu was very happy to be teaching someone for the first time.

After the lesson was over, she had long forgotten the unpleasantness from before and patted the zombie on the shoulder with satisfaction: "You're a quick learner!"

After these few days of learning, the zombies have determined that this temporary teacher has mental problems.

Then I thought about how at least I had family to make a coffin for me, while this guy had to steal someone else's. He'll probably end up buried in a mass grave.

Suddenly, the zombies felt sympathy for Gu Shijiu and were no longer stingy with a coffin.

Moreover, Shi Qi also said that the two of them would leave soon, and he could come back to retrieve the coffin then.

Relieved, the zombie finished his training and bid farewell to Gu Shijiu: "I like to travel, so I won't stay here any longer."

Shi Qi: A zombie who likes to travel, that's really rare.

"Then be careful on your journey." Gu Shijiu said goodbye to the zombie.

The zombie waved with its back to the two men, looking quite nonchalant.

Only the coffin creaked and tried to escape, but Gu Shijiu held it firmly in place, preventing it from breaking free.

"Shi Qi, what are we going to do with this coffin?"

The zombie said a lot that day, but she didn't remember any of it.

Shi Qi was prepared and handed over a sheet of paper: "Here, it's all."

"Hehe, you're so thoughtful." Gu Shijiu took the paper, which was listed in detail with numbers one, two, three, and four.

Gu Shijiu cultivated in the coffin at the cemetery for a while and felt that his body had undergone new changes.

First, her nails retracted, then her hair returned to its original length, and her red pupils turned black.

She looks like a beautiful human girl now.

Only the evil spirits in this area know how terrifying she is.

The Taoist sect recently discovered that, with the tomb where Gu Shijiu was located as the center, all the evil spirits within a radius of dozens of miles had been completely eradicated.

The old Taoist called Shi Qi, and sure enough, it was this ancestor who did it.

The area is now peaceful and righteous, and there have been no more cases of evil spirits eating people.

Even the local people living nearby know that there are two living gods on the mountain who specialize in fighting ghosts and catching demons.

Some people even buy incense and candles to make wishes to Gu Shijiu and Shi Qi.

So, Gu Shijiu recently discovered that the energy she obtained during her cultivation contained specks of white.

This was not the case before.

The old Taoist priest said this is faith, and it helps with spiritual practice.

The more faith one receives, the more divine protection one will receive, bringing good fortune and warding off evil.

Even Shi Qi could feel a trace of energy gathering within her body.

"Hehe, Shi Qi, shall we go get our reward?"

Gu Shijiu had heard that she had accumulated a lot of rewards for eliminating evil spirits.
