A cute, timid mushroom mistakenly takes the zombie king for her boyfriend and sticks close to him.

Su Lanyue was lost in thought when she was suddenly startled. Her face turned pale as she looked at Meng Xiaoyou. Forgetting her pretense for a moment, she raised her voice and shrieked, "What nonsense are you talking about?!"

Everyone was startled by her voice, and even Mu Qingfeng couldn't help but look over, "What's wrong?"

It should be noted that Su Lanyue has always spoken softly and gently in front of Mu Qingfeng since childhood, and has never lost her composure like this before.

Meng Xiaoyou spoke very softly behind Su Lanyue, and the others didn't hear her clearly.

After saying that, Meng Xiaoyou was afraid that this bad woman would bully her again, so she silently took a few steps back to keep a safe distance, like a cat that had done something naughty, scratching someone twice and then quickly dodging away, her fair face full of innocence, "If it wasn't eaten by ghosts, then why weren't there any zombies? And we even encountered a ghost wall."

Su Lanyue was so frightened that her heart almost stopped, and it took her a long time to recover. "How could there be a ghost? You've wasted all those years of studying."

Even though she firmly believed in materialism, the word "ghost" lingered in Su Lanyue's mind. She dared not act alone and followed closely behind Mu Qingfeng.

Mu Qingfeng warned Meng Xiaoyou not to play any tricks, then asked the two children, "So how do you usually go out?"

The two children shook their heads. "We can't get out. Some people here have tried. As long as you have the thought of going out, you'll go around in circles. Besides, there are monsters outside. We might as well stay here and look for food. We can live as long as we can."

"Are there other people here?"

"Yes... but they don't like to go out, and it's not easy to meet them."

The brother and sister knew nothing about the rest, and they couldn't get any information out of them, so they didn't press them further and simply let them go.

Everyone ate a simple meal, and Meng Xiaoyou skillfully found a corner to shrink into. Luckily, she had some space, otherwise she would have gone hungry.

She didn't believe that Su Lanyue and the others would give her food.

Compared to Meng Xiaoyou, Jiang Xiaofeng was not so lucky. He was originally a newcomer to the team. They said they would give him food and ask him to join them, but the food allocated each day was very little, which was not enough for the growing boy. He stood by Meng Xiaoyou with longing eyes.

After the previous "ghost face incident," Mushroom felt intimidated by him, but he also looked rather pitiful...

She thought for a moment, then shakily pulled a bag of cookies from her storage space and handed it to him.

Jiang Xiaofeng was taken aback, quickly thanked him, and hid to the side to start gnawing.

Knowing that there were other humans still alive in the city and that they wouldn't die immediately, everyone felt a little more at ease.

Mu Qingfeng sent two superhumans out to find other survivors. They only found two people all day. When asked how to get out, both of them said they couldn't leave the county.

Su Lanyue was rushing back to City B to see her sick mother and didn't have much time to spare. Every action she took was that of a dutiful daughter.

On the other hand, the biological daughter's nonchalant attitude was infuriating.

Compared to Meng Xiaoyou, Mu Qingfeng was even more dissatisfied.

Meng Xiaoyou didn't care what these insignificant people thought. While others were looking for a way out, she was also looking for a way to escape.

Perhaps fearing she would run away, Su Lanyue specially arranged for two superhumans to guard her side while they were searching for a way, ostensibly for protection, but in reality for surveillance.

Jiang Xiaofeng had good eyesight and they took her out.

Standing alone and small, Meng Xiaoyou panicked under the piercing gaze of two burly men. "Can...can you stop looking at me?"

The two superhumans seemed like wooden blocks; upon hearing this, they replied in a stiff, formal tone, "The young lady asked me to keep an eye on you."

Meng Xiaoyou was so angry that she exploded on the spot, "Then I'm going to the toilet."

She stormed out, only to be stopped again. "There's a restroom upstairs."

"..."

OK.

She returned to her original position dejectedly, and the two superhumans exchanged a glance and remained silent.

Su Lanyue and the others didn't return until "night." Although it was mostly nighttime, Mu Qingfeng kept track of the time, and his clock stopped precisely at nighttime.

Judging from their expressions, it was all for nothing.

This Muquan County is different from the mountain village, mainly because there is no heating. The outside temperature reaches minus 28 degrees Celsius, just one step away from minus 30 degrees Celsius.

Even their breathing was damp with their breath, and the group shivered from the cold. Mushroom rubbed his hands together, unable to bear it any longer, and asked, "Don't you guys have fire abilities?"

"Yes, but there might be danger, so we should use them sparingly."

Meng Xiaoyou: "I think we can find a single-story house, where most people have a stove and a hearth."

Mu Qingfeng, that man, was getting impatient.

"Where are you going to find a bungalow in this godforsaken place? If you're cold, get up and walk around. Superhumans are physically stronger than ordinary people, do you think you'll freeze to death?"

It won't freeze the superpowered to death... but it's still uncomfortable.

Meng Xiaoyou was furious but dared not speak out. Mushroom, who used to be vengeful, had almost filled up her little notebook of grudges in the past two days.

At the same time, she finally realized that not everyone would be as tolerant of her little spoiled quirks as Pei Sinian.

Pei Sinian was good, but these people were bad.

She pursed her lips and didn't press the matter further, silently hugging herself tightly.

That night was bitterly cold, and her previously frostbitten hands were still slightly itchy. It wasn't until the middle of the night that she felt much warmer all over.

In addition, there was a strangely sung voice.

"In this world—there's only one thing—that's good: Mom."

The mushroom shook its umbrella and rolled over.

"A child with a loud voice is like a treasure..."

mushroom:"……"

What kind of tune is this? It's even more bizarre than the death music we heard when we first met Pei Sinian.

She suddenly opened her eyes, and a small face unexpectedly came into view.

This time, she got a clear look at the other person's face.

The little zombie was quite young, even younger than the brother and sister we saw today. It had delicate and cute features, a round face, large eyes with light-colored pupils that, under the moonlight, appeared slightly grayish. Its skin was intact, a bit grayish-white, and it had a pair of small fangs on either side of its mouth.

It was clutching the corner of a floral quilt in its hand. This floral quilt hadn't been there before; it was light and fluffy with pure cotton inside, no wonder it was warm just now.

It's covering her with a blanket.

Zombies are actually pretty good.

From initial shock to eventual calm and numbness, Meng Xiaoyou stared blankly into the distance. She noticed that none of the sleeping people around her had noticed the little zombie that had infiltrated the room. The superhuman on night watch simply stood outside the door, showing no intention of entering. Anyone who did enter would see an extra figure inside. This time, Jiang Xiaofeng was also there, indicating that the zombie wasn't his doing.

Seeing that the little devil didn't intend to attack, she took a deep breath, gave it a bubble, and asked in a low voice, "What do you want?"

Although she knew the little zombie seemed to be able to talk, she was still worried. What if the little zombie was lying to her?

Without Pei Sinian, Mushroom has to fend for herself, and everyone might have bad intentions towards her.

Meng Xiaoyou silently gave herself a thumbs up in her heart. So smart!

Fortunately, the little zombie wasn't that malicious; she had misjudged him.

What people think is in sync with what they say. Publish immediately.

Seeing that Meng Xiaoyou was awake and not afraid of it, it tilted its head and leaned closer: "You... smell good... I'm hungry."

That's what it was thinking too.

[It smells good, I want to eat it.]

Meng Xiaoyou immediately looked horrified. "No, you have to tell me before you eat? Isn't that a bit too polite?"
