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

Even though Su Lanyue betrayed him, Mu Qingfeng still had feelings for her. Moreover, he had his pride. With one hand on the ground, his eyes bloodshot, he gritted his teeth and said, "Lanyue, you... don't need to beg him. Do whatever you want with me."

"What a deep affection! Since you are going to die, I will grant your wish."

"Damn it! If you want to die, then die. I'm not staying here to be buried with you."

Just then, Wang Gang, who had been silent all along, broke free from his restraints and forcefully tore through the suppression of his spatial abilities.

His special ability can tear apart any attack; that's how he tore apart Mu Qingfeng's special ability back then.

Xiao Yuan's ability level was higher than his, so he put in some effort and took advantage of Mu Qingfeng and Su Lanyue attracting Xiao Yuan's attention to tear open the gap. He didn't hesitate and quickly helped the remaining brothers tear open the gap as well. Just when it seemed that the group was about to escape, a sudden change occurred.

The earth suddenly shook, as if something beneath the stadium had been awakened. The ground collapsed, as if a sleeping beast had opened its gaping maw. The entire stadium trembled violently, and things sprang from the ground, entangled people's ankles, and dragged them into the abyss.

As the last rays of sunlight faded, a house collapsed with a loud crash, and after the dust and snow filled the air, all was quiet again.

Nothing was left but collapsed ruins.

The horde of zombies that had been surrounding the library stood there blankly.

What... were they going to do again?

With the power of control dissipating, the zombie horde was leaderless. As before, they dragged their stiff bodies aimlessly, searching for food to satisfy their insatiable appetite.

--

"Cough cough~"

"Pei Sinian?"

In the instant the ground collapsed, no one could escape. Meng Xiaoyou remembered that at the last moment before falling, Pei Sinian held her tightly in his arms, so she was basically unharmed, only her ankle hurt a little...

The ground beneath them felt cold to the touch, and it was different from the ground. They didn't know where they had fallen. It was pitch black all around, and they couldn't see anything at all. Fortunately, Meng Xiaoyou had a flashlight in her space.

She held the flashlight in a bubble.

The flashlight hadn't been charged in a long time, so the light was quite weak and occasionally flickered, but it was enough to see the surroundings clearly.

This is a narrow cave. If you move it even slightly, the soil above will fall off in a flurry. Fortunately, there are things that look like plant roots supporting it, so it doesn't collapse.

The air was damp and chilly, a favorite environment for mushrooms. Pei Sinian, meanwhile, was lying beneath her like a cushion, his extremely handsome face turned upwards, his sharply defined jaw slightly raised, his pale skin covered in dirt, his eyes closed, his brows furrowed, and he didn't look too well.

Meng Xiaoyou brushed the dirt off his face with her hands, lay down on his chest, and tapped his hard pectoral muscles. A trace of sorrow appeared on her delicate and beautiful face.

Pei Sinian... seems to be lying on the bed again.

Pei Sinian lay on the plank himself before, but this time it was caused by external force. I hope there won't be any problems.

Mushroom tucked her hands into her pockets, snuggled against him, and muttered softly, "Go ahead and try to touch me again if you dare!"

Mushroom actually liked Pei Sinian's closeness, but since it was the dead of winter and his temperature was cold, not as comfortable as in the summer, she didn't really want him to touch her.

So he pretended to be very angry and vented all the grievances he had accumulated during his time as a homeless person.

She understood, and Pei Sinian understood too.

Mr. Zombie has a rather unhealthy idea: he wants to spoil her and make her more willful so that, apart from him, the little fool won't find anyone else who can tolerate her little temper.

He knew this was wrong. If he were gone one day, how would the little fool live?

Pei Sinian never revealed his inner conflict.

He did it on instinct.

As long as Meng Xiaoyou doesn't think about leaving him, Mr. Zombie's temper will be very stable. He won't get angry with her, and he'll even be happy about it.

When Meng Xiaoyou got angry with him, all he felt was regret that he could no longer be close to her, nothing more.

He is now lying on the cold, hard earth, this time lying flat on the ground. He is conscious, but his body cannot move.

He could even feel the little silly boy sighing and groaning on him, his soft little hands patting his face: "We're in danger right now, when will you wake up?"

Pei Sinian didn't want to leave her alone, afraid she would be scared, but the zombie's body was uncooperative and entered a dormant state at this time.

Every time he wakes up in this state, he advances to the next level.

He couldn't open his eyes, and he couldn't even reach out to touch her head.

This time, it was Meng Xiaoyou's turn to touch him inappropriately.

She would touch his heart, then his face, and even lie down on his face, prying open his eyelids to peek, asking, "You're not pretending to be asleep to fool me, are you?"

Pei Sinian: "..."

I wasn't pretending to be asleep, but I might in the future...

He heard a rustling sound in his ear, and after a while, his shoulder was pushed up. The little fool complained, "Look what you've done to the child."

Pei Sinian: "???"

Meng Xiaoyou dug the little zombie's head out from under his shoulder. The little zombie was still unconscious. It seemed that it had suffered a second serious injury when it fell, and there was a big bump on the back of its head.

She reached out her mushroom claw and touched it, showing it great affection.

"poor child."

Pei Sinian: "!" Isn't he pitiful too?

Meng Xiaoyou's attention was initially on Pei Sinian, but it quickly shifted to "motherly love" as she focused on and showed compassion for the little zombie.

After all, it was common for Pei Sinian to lie on a plank, and how old was the little zombie?

It's the one that needs attention!

Meng Xiaoyou sat up from Pei Sinian's lap in one gulp, rummaged around in her spatial storage, and pulled out a towel at random. She carefully wiped the dirt off the little zombie's face, and then casually put an X on the bump on its head with a band-aid.

Looking at the little zombie, Mushroom felt a strange sense of accomplishment.

She had previously wanted to raise a human, but Pei Sinian was too easy to manage, so she ended up raising mushrooms instead. Now she's raising a zombie, which is the same as raising a human, and even easier to raise than a human.

She curled her lips into a smile, when suddenly she felt a violent thud below. Meng Xiaoyou paused, quickly looked down, and found that Pei Sinian's chest had only moved, and his eyes were not open.

Did I make him feel uncomfortable?

Meng Xiaoyou shifted her buttocks, slowly moving down from the man's abdomen until she finally reached his thigh, where her entire mushroom-like body went limp and remained motionless.

There was no other way; the ground was a bit dirty, and she was a person now, not a mushroom, so she couldn't take root. If she didn't want to sit on the ground, she had no choice but to sit on him.

Once we've rested enough, we'll figure out a way out.

But she wouldn't sit still, complaining that his legs were too hard. She touched him all over, but apart from his mouth, she couldn't find a single soft spot.

"Never mind, let's just sit here."

Mr. Zombie: "..."
