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

As the weather gradually warms up, there are more birds chirping in the forest. A bird dropping happens to fall from a tree, but is blocked by an ice wall that condenses in the air.

After a night, the man's expression finally showed a slight change. He told himself that a mature zombie wouldn't bother with a bird that didn't know its own mortality. If the little fool was still alive, he would pluck the bird's feathers and roast them for her to eat.

The mushroom buried in the soil is a lazy little pig. It has been sleeping soundly in the soil since yesterday. The only remaining signs of its breathing are that it is alive.

In a way, Pei Sinian felt that Meng Xiaoyou was not dead, and that she had some connection with this purple mushroom.

"Brother Pei... Shall we go back?"

Zhou Ziming and his teammates were lucky to survive. They even dug out the bodies of their dead teammates one by one from the car and buried them in the woods. Although they died without complete remains, at least they had a final resting place.

As for the missing Meng Xiaoyou... they thought she was probably dead.

They suppressed their grief and comforted them, saying, "I know it's hard for you to accept, but when you're alive, you have to look forward. You can't stay here forever. It would be dangerous if the zombies came. Even if Miss Meng were still here, she wouldn't let you live in grief."

They rambled on and on, but the zombies only listened in one ear and out the other.

What does it matter to a zombie if a person is alive and looking forward?

He picked up a leaf from the ground and covered it with another.

Zhou Ziming hesitated, but then realized that since Meng Xiaoyou was crushed by the space, Pei Sinian had been in this state. They suspected that Pei Sinian's excessive grief had caused brain damage. Otherwise, why would he pick up the poisonous mushroom that appeared out of nowhere and treat it like a baby?

They didn't understand, didn't want to respect, and even tried to persuade them; suddenly, a pile of leaves trembled.

At first, it only trembled slightly, then paused for a few seconds, the leaves were knocked and shook wildly, and a mushroom cap tip emerged. Then, as if it had gathered all its strength, it fanned the cap like a fan, blowing away all the messy leaves on it, revealing the mushroom's true appearance.

This tiny mushroom, no bigger than an adult man's fist, has circular patterns on its purple cap, each one incredibly beautiful. It even reflects the sunlight. Strangely, this mushroom has eyes.

Her large, grape-like eyes were dark and moist, and she timidly observed her surroundings. When she saw Pei Sinian's figure, her round eyes brightened.

She shortened and shortened the white stem at the bottom, and then, as if a small spring had been pressed on it, she defied the heavens and earth by pulling herself out of the ground and slamming onto Pei Sinian's leg with a thud.

She hopped and skipped as if trying to jump onto him, making soft, sweet kissing sounds.

Unfortunately, Pei Sinian's height was too different from hers, and even though she was sitting on the ground and jumped for a long time, she couldn't jump above his waist.

The purple mushroom panicked, its white stem shortened, and it sprang out again, hitting his abdomen before bouncing back. Just as it was about to fall to the ground, it was caught by a pair of cold, white hands.

Zhou Ziming and the others stared in disbelief, standing rooted to the spot, bewildered. "This... a mutated plant?"

Pei Sinian ignored what the two humans thought, simply lowering his head. His wisps of hair fluttered gently in the wind, brushing against his delicate eyebrows and eyes. Behind his glasses, his light gray eyes locked onto the purple mushroom as if he had spotted his prey.

This little mushroom has a fiery temper; anyone who crosses her will not escape.

No one knows what Pei Sinian did to offend the little one. She was waving a white jade-like mushroom stalk, which somehow gave the impression of her standing on her tiptoes. Under the umbrella was a round little mouth, making "bo bo" sounds.

I can't understand it, but it must be very vulgar.

Pei Sinian raised an eyebrow slightly, casually pulled out a finger and flicked it. The little mushroom fell headfirst into his hand, its grape-like eyes widening in disbelief. It leaped up, ready to fight him to the death.

She used quite a bit of force, and with a "biu" it shot right onto Pei Sinian's face.

Pei Sinian could feel the impact on his face; it was soft yet heavy.

He pinched her mushroom stem expressionlessly and said coldly, "If you move again, I'll make mushroom soup."

The little mushroom hung upside down between his fingers, as if its vital point had been pinched, and remained motionless, pretending to be dead.

So honest?

"Bah-"

Tiny purple bubbles popped out of the mushroom's big, watery eyes, splashing onto his fingertips. The familiar sensation made Pei Sinian's heart skip a beat.

A bold idea formed in his mind, stirring up a storm in his calm heart. He pursed his lips without making a sound, gently picked up the little guy and placed it in his palm, rubbing the tip of the mushroom with his fingertips.

She immediately slumped into his palm like a cat being petted comfortably, muttering something under her breath.

Meng Xiaoyou had cursed until her mouth was dry, so she lay down for a while with his help.

Feeling restless, she woke up to find it was dark and realized something was wrong when she discovered something was pressing down on her.

A sense of abandonment gripped her. She struggled to break free, only to find herself not in Pei Sinian's arms, but planted in the ground, and Pei Sinian had grown to a massive size.

Meng Xiaoyou finally realized something was wrong, but having survived such a close call, her first thought was to find Pei Sinian to comfort her.

Pei Sinian didn't come to her, so the fragile mushroom decided to fend for itself. However, this stinky human actually wanted to make mushroom soup.

At this moment, Meng Xiaoyou realized that she had been compressed back into her original body by spatial abilities.

Becoming yourself again should have been a very happy thing, but...

Pei Sinian seemed not to recognize her.

He's changed; he wasn't like this before.

Meng Xiaoyou babbled on and on, but Pei Sinian couldn't understand a word she said. She cried in distress, curled up in a ball, and became withdrawn and motionless. No matter how much the man rubbed her, she kept the white pole hidden under the umbrella, only revealing her big, aggrieved eyes, and cried accusingly.

Pei Sinian lowered his eyes and said softly, "Don't eat mushrooms, and don't cry."

Does he mean he won't cry?

The mushroom shifted its little bottom, lifting a small corner of its cylindrical base, and stomped on it forcefully.

He was quite strong, and a chunk of Pei Sinian's flesh sank in.

He didn't seem to care much. "Be good, and I'll make you clothes."

Meng Xiaoyou: "!!!"

She jumped up in disbelief and checked herself; her little red hat and little red dress were gone...

So, she's naked now?

"Kiss kisses!!!" Meng Xiaoyou hugged herself tightly, waving the umbrella and urging the man to hurry up, she needed to get dressed!

Despite the cross-species communication, Pei Sinian seemed to understand and nodded slightly, "Well, I'll have to make do with this for a while."

As he spoke, he stuffed the mushroom into his pocket and carried it away.
