Chapter 2160: Mr. Zombie (19)

Chapter 2160: Chapter 2160: Mr. Zombie (19)

Communicating with Bei Chi is already difficult enough for Chuzheng, not to mention this group of zombies...

But Bei Chi seems to be really dumb, which makes her quite troubled.

Looks like she’ll have to take matters into her own hands.

Chuzheng pulls out a stick from somewhere, and Bei Chi takes one look at her and darts to the side, clutching his head.

"..."

I’m not gonna hit you.

Chuzheng demonstrates to Zhi Kai and the others how to beat up zombies unilaterally... The zombies howl pathetically.

Zhi Kai and the others are quite frightened.

The boss is too ruthless.

Why do I suddenly feel a bit sorry for the zombies?

They must be getting too cocky, daring to feel sorry for zombies; this is unacceptable, zombies are their enemies!

But... they do look really pitiful.

Chuzheng’s beating is effective at least; the zombies no longer dare to roar at her, and they even know to dodge when she approaches.

Experiment results: zombies are bullies who fear tough and bully the weak.

Chuzheng leans on her stick, contemplating with a complex mind.

Looking at it this way, relying on strength is viable, but the problem is, there are so many zombies, how long would it take me to fight my way through? Wouldn’t I die of exhaustion?

Chuzheng feels this won’t work.

She needs to think of another way.

Chuzheng glances at the Good Person Card.

Bei Chi stands there, his dazed eyes staring at her, yet it’s unclear what exactly is going on in his head.

Forget it.

Relying on the Good Person Card is less reliable than relying on myself!

-

Chuzheng found that zombies can understand human language, some of them anyway, but...

Zombies are a bit rebellious, most of the time they pretend not to understand and ignore people.

These zombies are not the Good Person Card, so they can’t be treated generously by Chuzheng, and soon some of them don’t dare to play dumb anymore.

With the first batch of obedient zombies under her wing, things progressed much more smoothly for Chuzheng.

Fighting so many zombies alone is surely tiring.

But she can let the zombies do the fighting.

They’re all brothers, a little sparring is quite necessary.

[...]Missy, your words are bullshit.

As Chuzheng hit the road with a group of zombies, Zhi Kai and the others were the most afraid; they didn’t even dare to get out of the car, who knew a zombie might pop out from somewhere and deal with them?

Chuzheng also discovered this group of zombies can exhibit herd behavior.

She doesn’t need to make an appearance, and the zombies will join in when they hear commotion.

And they can communicate with each other.

This is mainly shown by how new zombies instinctively fear her, even though she did nothing, which means they must have exchanged information among themselves.

They know she’s a fierce little snack, something they can’t eat.

This majority fear affects the entire group.

Chuzheng hardly has to lift a finger afterwards... though there are some particularly rebellious ones who refuse to be controlled.

During these times... the zombies will gather to watch a one-sided beating.

The zombies know they can’t beat Chuzheng, the surrendering nature from their former human lives is fully on display.

The zombie horde grows rapidly, turning into a dense mass, and any survivor who sees this turns tail and runs.

Some small settlements along the road are scared out of their wits when they see so many zombies moving.

They prepare to pack up and run, only to discover that the zombie horde isn’t heading their way.

"Where are those zombies headed?"

"No idea..."

"Did you see that formation? My gosh, scared me to death!"

"I’ve never seen so many zombies, it’s terrifying."

"Zombie migration?"

"Where are they migrating to?"

"..."

No one knows where this group of zombies is headed, and no one notices that there’s a human among the zombie horde.

Even though the zombies won’t attack Chuzheng, they still need someone on night watch.

After all, they’re not human, who knows if their brains will suddenly short-circuit and disobey orders?

Tonight, Zhao Yingjun and Xiao Gong have night watch during the first half; they’re playing flight chess, and a zombie is hanging around, watching and croaking.

Five minutes later, Zhao Yingjun and Xiao Gong are surrounded by zombies.

Chuzheng comes out just in time to see this, gets a chill in her heart, and quickly approaches: "What are you doing!"

The zombies scatter at once, some clutching their heads, others running, creating a chaotic scene.

As the zombies disperse, Zhao Yingjun and Xiao Gong sit there safe and sound.

"..."

Thought they were gathering for a late-night snack.

"Boss."

Zhao Yingjun and Xiao Gong were actually quite scared too; they didn’t know so many zombies would suddenly gather around.

They didn’t dare to run for fear of provoking the zombies.

Seeing Chuzheng was like seeing a savior.

"No anomalies, right?"

"No... none."

Chuzheng nods: "Go get me some hot water."

"Oh." Xiao Gong happily runs to boil water.

Zhao Yingjun sees Chuzheng doesn’t plan to head back to the car, coughs, and points at the flight chess while inviting: "Does the boss want to play a round?"

With nothing to do, Chuzheng sits down to play a round with Zhao Yingjun.

"Boss, why did you gather so many zombies?"

Zhao Yingjun takes the chance to ask Chuzheng.

"Aren’t they adorable?"

"..." Do you have some misunderstanding about what ’adorable’ means?

Zhao Yingjun shows an awkward yet polite smile, contradicting himself: "Ador—adorable." I’ll definitely be struck by lightning.

"So, boss, you didn’t gather so many zombies just because they’re adorable, did you?"

"Of course..."

Zhao Yingjun almost chokes on his breath.

"...not." Chuzheng finishes slowly.

"..." Boss, can you not pause so dramatically in the middle of your sentences, it’s terrifying.

"I want to see if they can follow my orders." Chuzheng says leisurely: "Who knows, I might become the Zombie King."

"??? "

He understands each word separately, but put together he suddenly doesn’t quite understand. What is a Zombie King?

You’re a human, aren’t there better things to do than become a Zombie King?

Have you gone mad?

Every cell in Zhao Yingjun’s body screams, yet he can only tremble silently, utterly speechless.

After Chuzheng speaks, she asks Zhao Yingjun, "What do you think?"

"I think... the boss definitely can!" Zhao Yingjun shakily fists up, making a cheering gesture.

"Hmm, I think I can too." Chuzheng nods her little face seriously.

"..."

Heh.

He’s kind of tempted to part ways with Chuzheng.

Xiao Gong brings hot water for Chuzheng, who takes it and heads to the car.

In the car, Bei Chi’s hands are bound, and his gray eyes glare at Chuzheng, looking quite angry.

Chuzheng puts down the hot water: "Don’t look at me like that; who told you to start trouble first."

"Groan!" Who started trouble first!

Bei Chi is frustrated that he can’t express himself, so he can only glare at her.

Chuzheng pretends not to see, moves over, and lifts Bei Chi’s shirt.

Bei Chi’s wound heals very slowly, it’s been such a long time and it hasn’t healed yet, but he doesn’t feel any pain, nor does it affect his mobility.

Chuzheng raises his clothes even higher, revealing his lower belly and the wound.

"Groan!" Bei Chi growls in discontent.

"Quiet."

"Groan!"

"Make another sound and see."

"Groan groan!!"

Chuzheng casually stuffs a clean towel into Bei Chi’s mouth.

Bei Chi: "..."
