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

"Damn it! Which scoundrel scattered nails on the ground?!"

Tang Shengnan got out of the car cursing, and Meng Xiaoyou and the others followed.

Meng Xiaoyou was most concerned about the lame zombie. She hurriedly ran to the other side and asked, "Can you give me back my zombie?"

The fat man, who was hugging the zombie, shuddered.

To get to R City from Moonlight Base, you have to go through this road.

They frequently rob people from the Moonlight Base in this area. If they encounter a powerful superhuman, they hide; if they encounter a weak person, they steal some supplies; and if there are pretty girls, that's even better.

However, at this moment, the pretty little girl was looking up at them with longing eyes, her face showing no sign of aggression, just like a lost lamb, innocent and harmless.

However, her words struck the hearts of the men like a thunderbolt.

A cunning and scheming little girl!

Fatty Zhang jolted, his whole body stiffening, and he spoke cautiously, "Could...could you ask your zombie to come down by itself?"

He was holding the zombie, wishing he could stretch his neck into that of a giraffe, thinking that this would prevent the zombie from biting him.

The lame zombie brazenly staged an accident, grabbing his shoulder and yelling wildly.

Meng Xiaoyou hesitated, "Could you hand over all the food you have on you?"

Zhang Pangzi and the others: "..."

Well, we've run into a double-cross.

When you're under a zombie's jaws, you have no choice but to bow your head.

Several people handed over their supplies with tears in their eyes. Just as they were about to hand them to Meng Xiaoyou, a dark shadow flashed before their eyes. The zombie that had been so fierce just moments before was now holding their food and placing it on the ground, starting to count it.

They had barely breathed a sigh of relief when an iron bar came crashing down on them. Tang Shengnan snapped, "You pay for my tires, either fix them or I'll kill you!"

Everyone: "..."

One of them secretly patted Fatty Zhang on the shoulder, "Hey Fatty, this woman's fierce, what do we do?"

Fatty Zhang sneered, "Now that the zombies aren't on me, I can't even handle two women? Go get them both... and take them back???"

His voice abruptly stopped.

The reason was that Meng Xiaoyou imitated Pei Sinian's actions, grabbed the lame zombie by the back of the neck, and pressed it onto Zhang Pangzi's body.

The lame zombie, with a chicken leg still in its mouth, bared its teeth at him, the bone crunching loudly as it chewed.

"We...we'll pay!"

The group immediately backed down, saying their estate was nearby and if they didn't mind, they could go back with them first and wait for them to get their tools so they could change their tires.

Meng Xiaoyou spoke bluntly, "You're not trying to trap me like a turtle in a jar, are you?"

The next second, she was hit on the head. Pei Sinian, wearing plastic gloves, snatched the lame zombie from her hand and took her place.

The mushroom looked a little aggrieved: "Why did you hit me for no reason?"

"dirty."

Pei Sinian glanced at the dirty thing in his hand, his eyes filled with uncontrollable disgust.

The lame zombie trembled in the boss's hands, the chicken feet in his hand no longer tasted good. He casually stuffed them into the pocket of the fat man in front of him, wiped his feet, and pretended to be a clean zombie, begging the boss not to kill him.

If even zombies acted this way, the humans opposite them dared not even breathe loudly in front of Pei Sinian.

Having failed in his attempt to steal a chicken, he ended up losing more than he gained. Covered in dust, he led the way, whispering in a voice he thought couldn't be heard behind him, "Fatty, if Brother Xiao finds out about this, he'll definitely say we're causing trouble and doing bad things again."

"Pah! Without Wang Chipeng, what is he anyway? Meddling in my business? If he dares to say anything, I'll spit on him."

To be able to rob here, their village wasn't far, but getting up the mountain was quite difficult. Without a car, it took half an hour to walk up the mountain before finally seeing smoke rising from chimneys and people moving about, including elderly people and children.

One of them stepped forward to greet them, but when he saw Meng Xiaoyou and the others, he paused for a moment, then his expression changed: "You guys went out to rob again?"

Their gazes were fine when they were on Meng Xiaoyou and her group, but upon seeing the lame zombie, they retreated in panic.

"What's wrong with you guys? You went out and brought back zombies! Everyone be on guard! Superpowered individuals, take your positions... Women and children, evacuate first!"

The woman who was with her child at the door quickly took the child away.

Fatty Zhang's eyes darted around. "Oh, what robbery? You're making it sound so nasty. I didn't go out to rob anyone this time. I just wanted to find some supplies. Who knew I'd be targeted by these guys? They outnumbered me and could even control zombies. Bringing them up was a last resort."

Having learned from the previous experience, this time Fatty Zhang immediately distanced himself from Meng Xiaoyou and her group, and a few others followed him and slipped away in perfect coordination.

Tang Shengnan exploded instantly.

"What utter bullshit! It was you who put nails on the road and caused our tires to blow out. Now you're trying to shift the blame."

Meng Xiaoyou was also annoyed. Humans were really too mean. She grumbled to Pei Sinian, "You still say it's not like we're catching a turtle in a jar?"

Pei Sinian: "Don't use idioms indiscriminately."

"Then what should we use?"

"A clown... a clown."

The mushroom nodded, "I've learned something."

The two spoke in voices that were neither too loud nor too soft, but just loud enough for everyone present to hear.

Zhang Pangzi's face twisted for a moment, "You're all courting death! Ding Zhong'an, what are you standing there for? Didn't you see they've come to attack us? You're the one with the highest superpower here, so hurry up and deal with them. They still have the supplies I stole."

Ding Zhong'an hesitated, after all, Fatty Zhang's reputation was really not good. Since Wang Chipeng died, no one had been in charge of him, and he would often go out and rob other victims instead of following the rules.

To put it bluntly, a leopard can't change its spots. Judging from the girl's angry expression, it's possible that Fatty Zhang was the one who started the trouble.

For a moment, neither of them made the first move.

Just as everyone was at a stalemate, the sound of a car suddenly came from down the mountain. A group of people returned fully loaded with goods, and many people got out of the car to unload the items.

Fatty Zhang's face turned ugly. After a moment's thought, he rubbed his hands together and rushed over, shouting, "Brother Xiao, you have to do me a favor! They've come to our house, and Ding Zhong'an is just ignoring it."

Meng Xiaoyou was surprised by how shameless this person was. With a sour face, he followed Zhang Pangzi's gaze.

She froze when she saw who it was.

The young man who stepped out of the driver's seat was both familiar and unfamiliar. He was familiar with his delicate features, but unfamiliar with his aura that didn't belong to him.

After some time apart, the boy was no longer as carefree as before. He had matured a lot, like a poplar tree that had shed its immaturity. His aura was also stronger than before, and under the light, you could see the white hairs mixed in with his black hair.

Meng Xiaoyou's eyes widened, and she subconsciously called out, "Xiao Dongxi."

For a moment, the air seemed to freeze, and someone gasped.

Oh no! This little brat is talking so incoherently. Their Brother Xiao hates the words "little thing" the most because it sounds like his nickname.

The boy who had just gotten off the bus paused noticeably for a few seconds and suspiciously picked at his ear.

I'm hallucinating. How come I'm hearing a pretty girl's voice?

She stayed in Y City; it's impossible for her to be here.

Before he could even look in the direction of the sound, a majestic, muscular figure covered in oil blocked his way.

"Brother Xiao, say something, Brother Xiao."

Xiao Moqiong frowned and retorted sharply, "What kind of brother are you? Did you get your head stuck in a door? Who's your brother?"

His aura vanished completely after he spoke.
