Post-Apocalyptic Rebirth: The Ghost Guanyin Transforms into a God

Meanwhile, Miao Yin had already pulled Yan Shuzhou into the toy store on the third floor.

This toy store is huge, with everything from Lego models to large dolls.

The arrival of the apocalypse left the place in a mess, with dried bloodstains on the teddy bear pillows scattered by the door.

But that doesn't stop Miao Yin from playing.

She rarely saw these things, and neither did Yan Shuzhou; it was just right for two people who had no childhood to come together.

Yan Shuzhou picked up a dinosaur doll, squeezed it, and found the doll's fur to be very soft. Its silly and cute appearance, specially designed to please guests, was also quite adorable.

"Xiao Zhou." Miao Yin's voice came from behind.

Yan Shuzhou subconsciously turned his head, and a potted doll flower was shoved in front of him, dancing seductively in the flowerpot, its two green leaves playing musical instruments.

Miao Yin poked her head out from behind the flower and said with a smile, "Look, it can dance. Isn't that interesting?"

Sunflower, wearing small sunglasses and with bright red lips, played the saxophone with various poses, making Yan Shuzhou laugh: "This is so much fun."

"Let's take it home and put it in the living room, how about that?"

Yan Shuzhou thought for a moment and said, "We can put it in front of the TV cabinet."

"There's a claw machine over there!" Miao Yin noticed the toys behind him and pulled him over.

It was a mini claw machine, about fifty centimeters tall, with dozens of small toys inside. It was pushed to the ground by panicked people, and there were several bloody handprints on one side.

Miao Yin straightened it up and sat on the ground with Yan Shuzhou.

This is a battery-powered toy that still has power. Just insert a coin into the hole and you can grab a plush toy like a normal claw machine.

Miao Yin opened the game tokens and stuffed them into Yan Shuzhou's hand: "Try playing it."

Yan Shuzhou, somewhat at a loss, held a pile of game coins, clumsily inserted one, and then began to operate the claw according to what he remembered.

He had never played these games before, so he was a bit stiff as he tried to find his way.

“A little more to the right,” Miao Yin said, leaning on his shoulder.

Yan Shuzhou's ears turned visibly red, and the clips trembled with his movements.

"Press that button," Miao Yin instructed again.

So Yan Shuzhou pressed the small yellow button, and the clip fell down with a snap. He then grabbed the doll and tried to lift it up, but unfortunately, the doll fell down halfway, and the clip returned to its original position all alone.

"try again."

"Ah."

Yan Shuzhou's expression turned serious, and he tossed in another coin. Before he knew it, he had put it in.

This time his operation went more smoothly than the last; the clamp wobbled and stopped on the head of a small blue tiger.

He pressed the button and looked at the claw machine with some nervousness.

The plastic clip fell down and accurately grabbed the blue tiger's body, picking it up.

This time, the doll didn't fall halfway down; instead, it landed smoothly in the hole.

"Got it!" He happily took the little tiger out of the box, his eyes shining.

"Sister, give it."

There was a chain on the little tiger's head. Miao Yin took the doll and tied it to Yan Shuzhou's waistband.

Miao Yin looked it over and said, "Just hang it up, it's a souvenir."

Yan Shuzhou looked down at her waist. "Sister, I want to put another one in."

"Let's play."

So Yan Shuzhou took out another identical little tiger, but this one was pink.

Then he looked at Miao Yin with a hint of anticipation in his eyes. Seeing that she did not refuse, he tied the little tiger to her waistband.

Miao Yin nudged the doll.

—They're actually quite cute.

"Have you had enough fun? Let's go check out something else."

"Ok!"

Yan Shuzhou stood up with satisfaction and looked curiously at the toys on the cabinet.

"If you like any of them, you can take them back and put them in your room."

"May I?"

"Of course, whatever you like."

So Yan Shuzhou happily went to pick out toys. The gloom he had felt upon returning to the Hellish Mall dissipated, and he finally regained the innocence and joy that a nineteen-year-old should have.

Miao Yin could see the longing in Yan Shuzhou's heart, the longing for his missing childhood.

She wouldn't mind giving him something new, replacing all the beautiful things in his memory.

Half an hour later, Miao Yin heard Ling calling her.

"Xiao Zhou, we should go back."

Yan Shuzhou reluctantly put down the Lego in his hands: "Sister, can we come out to play again later?"

"sure."

"it is good!"

Having been coaxed, Yan Shuzhou obediently followed along. Meanwhile, the hot pot was already cooked, white steam rising from it, the broth melting into a fragrant soup.

They somehow found some battery-operated or rechargeable lights in a store and hung them in the corridor, illuminating a small corner of the completely dark mall.

Apart from the two of them, everyone else had already sat down in a circle.

Tu Hao looked up and saw the dolls hanging on the two of them, and looked away in disgust.

childish.

"Come and eat quickly." Ling pointed to the seats she had reserved for them.

Half of the ingredients were added, and both pots were full; they were basically cooked.

As usual, Yan Shuzhou released a few nine-tasseled rabbits to guard the surroundings before sitting down to eat.

Everyone except Miao Yin was hungry and tired today, so they picked up their chopsticks and started eating heartily, creating a rare harmonious and warm atmosphere at the table.

Miao Yin picked and ate a little of each kind of food, then put down her chopsticks, picked up a nine-tasseled rabbit from the ground, and started playing with it by pulling its ears.

Her body doesn't need much food; most of the time she just eats a little out of habit.

“Speaking of which, your appetite seems to have increased a lot,” Miao Yin said to Tu Hao.

Tu Hao hummed in agreement: "That's how it is after advancing."

He's becoming more and more like a wild beast.

Gong Jingming looked at him and asked, "What is the level of your superpower?"

"What level are you?" Tu asked without answering.

"I don't know," Gong Jingming answered honestly.

"The machines for testing the level of supernatural abilities are only found in large bases, and we haven't had a chance to go there yet," Yao Yue said.

“I know.” Miao Yin held the rabbit in one hand and pointed at them with the other.

"Grade B, Grade C." This refers to Gong Jingming and Yao Yue.

"You, Grade A." She finally pointed at Tu Hao.

"How did you know?" Yao Yue asked, puzzled.

"Isn't this something you can tell just by looking at it?" Miao Yin said frankly.

Admittedly, the specific level of a person with superpowers needs to be measured by a machine, but once you've seen enough of them, you can roughly tell what level they are at.

These are the things that Miao Yin is most familiar with.

"However, you should all be close to advancing, right?"

Especially Gong Jingming and Tu Hao.

Tu Hao thought of the crystal cores in his pocket that he hadn't absorbed yet: "...Soon."

"How do I know if I've advanced?" Because of his lack of knowledge about supernatural abilities, Gong Jingming couldn't quite understand what they were saying.

"Don't you feel anything?"

"What does it feel like?"

"It felt like a barrier shattered. My superpowers became different and more powerful in an instant. You're a summoner, so after advancing, you should be able to summon even more new plants," Miao Yin said.

Gong Jingming fell into deep thought.
