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

In short, it's all Pei Sinian's fault for making her lose her mind!

so bad!

That evening, Meng Xiaoyou ate dinner made by the zombie, pushed the zombie to sleep on the sofa in the living room, and went to bed in a huff.

Late at night, the bedroom door clicked open, and a tall figure slowly walked in.

Pei Sinian thought to himself, "He's still too inexperienced; he doesn't even know how to lock the door."

He walked skillfully to the bedside and gazed at her sleeping face in the moonlight.

Mushroom's sleeping posture is very insecure. Even in Pei Sinian's arms, she often curls up. Perhaps it's a habit of her species. Several times, Pei Sinian felt empty in his arms in the middle of the night and scrambled his hands across the bed, accidentally waking up the little ancestor who had turned back into her original form while sleeping. She was so angry that she sprayed bubbles for half an hour before falling asleep again.

After falling asleep, she would cover her whole body with an umbrella, leaving only her little eyebrows twitching. Luckily, Mr. Zombie didn't sleep and had a very neat lying posture; otherwise, anyone else would have flattened the mushroom.

Pei Sinian stared at her for a long time, then bent down and pinched the fleshy part of her body that was squeezed out by the pillow. Meng Xiaoyou seemed to sense the familiar presence, but instead of waking up, she rubbed her face against the pillow and continued to sleep.

Someone like her, even if Pei Sinian poached her and sold her, would still be helping him count the money.

Pei Sinian's gaze softened as he lay down on his side.

Sure enough, the mushroom who had suggested sleeping in separate beds walked right into his trap, throwing herself into his arms, holding his shoulders with both hands, and casually hooking her leg around his lean waist, showing no awareness of the danger whatsoever.

In the darkness, the man lowered his head, kissed her forehead, and closed his eyes with restraint.

We've been indulging ourselves a bit these past few days, let her rest for one night first.

That night, Meng Xiaoyou slept soundly. However, when she woke up the next morning, she lay on the man's firm, cold chest for a few seconds, then stupidly greeted him before belatedly realizing, "Why are you in my bed?"

Pei Sinian lay there calmly: "You were sleepwalking last night and dragged me here."

Meng Xiaoyou: "???"

She looked down incredulously, and the man moved his shoulders with a victim-like expression. "They're a little numb."

Her wrist was resting on Pei Sinian's shoulder.

Mushroom guiltily withdrew her hand. Pei Sinian took the opportunity to stand up, turn his back to her, and fasten the buttons on his collar. "Don't sleep in separate beds anymore. You never keep your promises."

Meng Xiaoyou blinked, her mind blank for a moment, her little face scrunched up in a troubled expression.

Her posture was indeed very unrestrained, and it seemed that Pei Sinian was forced into it.

"But...but..." She hugged her knees, resting her delicate, fair chin on them, her voice soft and weak, lacking confidence: "If I pull you over, will you come over?"

The mushroom, sounding cowardly but actually quite self-righteous, said, "It's definitely your problem. How could I possibly have a problem?"

Pei Sinian: "..."

He tapped his mushroom-shaped head: "Hmm, it's my problem. I'll go cook. There's a huge mess to clean up at the base."

Meng Xiaoyou covered her head while washing up, occasionally stealing glances at his expression, still harboring a hint of doubt.

Could this be part of a zombie conspiracy?

--

After dinner, Mushroom was about to embark on something big.

After Moonlight Base discovered the use of the white mushrooms, the first person they contacted was Meng Xiaoyou. When those bases were conducting manhunts and sweeps, Wang Chipeng and Xiao Moqiong knew that Meng Xiaoyou was in trouble, so they urgently notified the other two high-level zombies in the base to help.

The female zombie Yu Xiuzhu, with a mist-like zombie pendant on her leg, used earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a type of magic-based technique) to travel at lightning speed, finally catching up with the battlefield to buy time and help the zombies take down those superhumans.

Speaking of superhumans, Academician Rong left behind some hidden dangers. Those superhumans who had taken the power-enhancing drugs, although they used their powers less, all suffered from splitting headaches. They were constantly being nurtured by healing superhumans, but the number of healing superhumans was limited, and repeated treatments were ineffective. They were almost unable to hold on any longer.

Ultimately, it was all the crystal cores in their brains that were causing the problem. Pei Sinian claimed he could save their lives, but the price was that the crystal cores would be destroyed and could no longer be used.

Those who were qualified to take the potion during that great battle were the best of humanity. It was simply unacceptable for them to be reduced to ordinary, useless people without any special abilities.

"Who knows if this is your conspiracy, that you want to weaken our human fighting power!" Sun Yingbo had always looked down on Zhou Ziming, a piece of trash, so he was the first to disagree.

Pei Sinian completely disregarded humans, not even glancing at them. He slowly played with Meng Xiaoyou's fingers, not getting annoyed when she scratched them, and continued to pinch and pinch, his tone indifferent: "If you disagree, then die."

Get lost! What does this ungrateful food have to do with him?

Before Sun Yingbo could say anything more, Zhu Heping said coldly, "Humans don't fight zombies anymore, so what's the use of having superpowers? When people die, they have nothing left. How can you be so confused?"

Faced with the choice between his life and his superpowers, anyone would know which to choose. Sun Yingbo gritted his teeth and reluctantly nodded in agreement.

Pei Sinian used his mental power to destroy their crystal cores without damaging their brains. Those people were dragged away by others, some were sent back to their original bases, and what happened afterward was none of Pei Sinian's business.

Next, they dealt with the base's problems. Having agreed to the agreement with the zombies, the base made its first attempt to contact them and was surprised to find that the zombies had indeed stopped attacking them. They quickly reported the situation to their superiors.

As time went on, more bases chose to try, while only a few stubborn bases still chose to fight against the zombies, resulting in heavy casualties. This caused great resentment among the lower-level people of those bases, who chose to integrate into other bases. After all, the bases were developing better and better, and the road was becoming smoother, so there was no need to stick to the small base.

In addition, the white mushrooms at Moonlight Base are also coveted by humans, with some attempting to use the bubbles emitted by the white mushrooms to awaken the humanity in their loved ones.

The Zombie King can control zombies to do anything, but he can't make them recall their memories of their past lives. He can't even remember his own past, let alone the zombies under his command.

The people at the base started snapping up mushrooms at high prices. Mushrooms are very fragile, but they have a strong reproductive capacity and can grow batch after batch overnight.

Meng Xiaoyou never expected that the white mushrooms she had unintentionally cultivated would be so useful in the end, bringing forward the wish she wanted to fulfill. After all, relying on her to read minds one by one to restore the zombies' sanity would take many years, even if she worked herself to death, while the mushrooms would grow so fast that they would be everywhere in no time.

However, the idea was beautiful, but the reality was harsh. The white mushrooms had just stepped out of the greenhouse and started growing in the wild when the cold winter air arrived.

In the middle of the night, Meng Xiaoyou, on the verge of death, suddenly sat up and began to do sit-ups, but was pushed down by Mr. Zombie, who held her shoulders down.

He snatched her phone away and warned her coldly, "If you keep watching videos, I'll confiscate your phone."

She was thinking of other mushrooms while in his arms—she'd gone too far!
