Fortunately, Su Bai had yet to receive a mission notification saying that he had failed. This meant that Lin Cheng-ying was not dead yet. Su Bai stood up and walked to Lin Cheng-ying's side. He squatted down and reached out to test his nose.
He was not dead, but he was exhaling more than he was inhaling. He felt like he was about to die. Gyatso thought that he had been attacked, so he did not have time to think about anything else. He went up and hit the back of Lin Cheng-ying's head. Of course, most importantly, he did not know Lin Cheng-ying.
When Ah Kuan saw that his master had been knocked to the ground and was motionless, he immediately shouted, "Master! Master!" He ran over. Unfortunately, this was not a cliché scene in movies and television dramas. Gyatso did not give Ah Kuan the chance to run over and hug Lin Cheng-ying, crying and shouting. Then, he suddenly comprehended the opportunity to unleash his Pocket Universe to kill all the villains. He swept the rod and Ah Kuan was knocked to the ground. Then, the rod stabbed Ah Kuan's chest and pinned him to the ground, unable to move.
Then, Gyatso looked at Su Bai, who was squatting beside Lin Cheng-ying.
"Don't tell me that person is Lin Cheng-ying."
Su Bai sighed. "I really hope he's not."
Gyatso closed his eyes and calmed his emotions. He knew how heavy his blow was. It was already a small miracle that the other party was still alive. But now that the other party was still alive, it was estimated that he was not far from death. It could be said that he had already taken half a step into the gates of hell.
"If I had known, I wouldn't have saved you. You're a vampire anyway. A few stabs won't kill you."
Su Bai touched his nose, then squatted down and carried Lin Cheng-ying on his back. "Let's put him to bed first. Then, we'll think of a way to save him."
"I know some medical skills," Gyatso said, then pointed at Ah Kuan, who was lying on the ground. "What should we do about this?"
"Tie him up."
Gyatso nodded.
Just like that, in the bedroom of the coffin home, Lin Cheng-ying was lying on the bed. Gyatso had already given him a massage. In Gyatso's words, the back of a person's head was very fragile. After receiving a heavy blow, Lin Cheng-ying had already fallen into a coma. He might wake up in a day or two and be fine, or he might die in a daze.
Ah Kuan and Chen Yuanwai were tied to a pillar. Ah Liang and Miss Chen, who had woken up, were also tied up by Su Bai. In the room, other than the unconscious Lin Cheng-ying, who was free, everyone else was tied up.
Su Bai sat on the doorstep. It was already dark. The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. In this era, there was not much industrial pollution, so the sky was still very clear.
Gyatso washed up and walked to Su Bai's side. "There's still no news about the monk."
"He caused quite a commotion in the demon's lair," said Su Bai. "But I don't think the monk will die."
"He's very tenacious," said Gyatso. Gyatso said, "Moreover, that demon cave was obviously suppressed by an eminent Buddhist monk many years ago. The monk should have some natural advantages there."
"As long as he doesn't go overboard."
Su Bai suddenly recalled the scene of the fox demon letting out an angry roar and flying out to find the monk. In fact, Su Bai could more or less guess what had happened. The monk must have had some sort of fortuitous encounter in the demon's lair. In order to obtain the fortuitous encounter and more benefits, he did not hesitate to take the risk. Otherwise, if he could escape, so could Gyatso. He refused to believe that the monk, who had a homeground advantage, would not have appeared by now.
Putting himself in the monk's shoes, if it were Su Bai, he would have made the same choice as the monk if he had mistakenly entered a place where vampires were hiding. The cowardly would starve to death, while the bold would die from overeating. In the story world, if he didn't take the initiative, he would die sooner or later.
In the sky, the moon suddenly seemed to be dyed with a little scarlet. Su Bai sensed it and raised his head to look at the sky. Gyatso, who was standing beside him, also raised his head to look at the vision in the sky.
"Is this considered a case of when it rains, it pours overnight?" Su Bai asked.
Gyatso took a deep breath and imitated the monk's tone. "Yes."
Obviously, the horror broadcast would not let the plot continue smoothly. If the main plot was to let Su Bai and the rest think of ways to treat Lin Cheng-ying and pray to Bodhisattva to extend his life, it would be too boring. In fact, Su Bai felt that the horror broadcast might not have expected that Lin Cheng-ying would become a vegetable after being beaten by Gyatso.
With the blood moon hanging in the sky, even Su Bai could feel that the surrounding murderous aura had suddenly become denser.
"This is the time when evil beings are the most active, and we are in the morgue."
"Aren't you the biggest evil being here?" Gyatso asked.
"You've learned to be bad, Gyatso. After spending so much time with that monk, you actually know how to be sarcastic." Su Bai patted his trousers and stood up. "The morgue has started to become restless. Over there, it's the zombie army created by Lin Cheng-ying. I don't know what this setting means. It's not like Lin Cheng-ying wants to rebel against the Qing or restore the Ming. Why would he arrange so many zombies in his house?"
"These are your relatives. You'll be in charge of pacifying them. In the wing over there, there should be many evil spirits suppressed and sealed. They can be considered Lin Cheng-ying's collection. I'll be in charge of strengthening the seal and suppression."
"If this is all tonight, it won't be too much trouble," Su Bai said.
"This is only the first day. Our main mission is seven days. The first day might just be the appetizer. The main course hasn't been served yet."
"Then let's eat the appetizer first."
Su Bai stood up and looked at the four people who were tied up. He said, "It's not safe. They are uncertain factors. If we leave …"
"Then break their limbs," Gyatso suggested.
Su Bai shook his head. "That's too extreme. Besides, we haven't completely fallen out with Lin Cheng-ying yet. We can still explain it as a misunderstanding. If he wakes up and realizes that his disciples have been crippled by us, he'll probably fight us even if it means perishing together."
Su Bai walked in front of Ah Liang. Ah Kuan and Ah Liang looked at Su Bai in horror.
Su Bai opened his mouth to explain something and even planned to untie the two of them first. However, when he saw the panic, fear, and even resentment in Ah Kuan's and Ah Liang's eyes, he opened his mouth to speak. "What are you doing here?" he asked.
"Gyatso, where's your rod?"
…
"Bang! Bang! "
With two muffled sounds, Ah Kuan and Ah Liang were knocked out.
Gyatso stood at the side with his hands on his chest. "I thought you had a better idea."
"Let's settle this once and for all."
After returning the rod to Gyatso, the two of them walked out of the bedroom. One walked east, while the other walked west. No matter what happened in the other parts of the town tonight, their mission was to stabilize the coffin home.
They returned to the house. One side of the wall of the house still looked like it had a hole. It was caused when Su Bai was knocked out by Lin Cheng-ying. Even now, Su Bai's blood was still surging. He had not fully recovered from his previous injuries.
The zombies in the house were still arranged according to the previous formation, but when Su Bai entered, he found that although the zombies did not move, they were all swaying back and forth. Clearly, stimulated by the blood moon, these zombies had become a little restless.
Su Bai clapped his hands, then shook his shoulders and closed his eyes. His body began to become thin, and he switched to his zombie form. His green eyes swept across all the zombies below.
"Silence!"
All the zombies stood still and did not move.
Looking at the zombies in front of him, Su Bai suddenly had an idea. Could he control these zombies to do things for him in this story world?
Or perhaps, he could even control some zombies in the real world. Even if he couldn't make them do evil things to prevent the karma from being blamed on him, he could still use them to guard the house.
However, after thinking about it, Su Bai realized that this idea was useless. The reason why he could make them listen to him was not because his zombie bloodline level was higher than theirs, but because these zombies had talismans stuck on their foreheads. They were completely suppressed by Taoist methods, so they could only listen to him. In this state, they would not be very stable. If something went wrong, they might hurt their own people. Moreover, with the talismans stuck on their foreheads, these zombies could only jump around and do a flag-raising ceremony. At most, they would swarm up and suppress people. They could not do anything higher than that.
Unless his own bloodline could continue to improve.
Su Bai pursed his lips. He really had to think of a way. After all, there were not many places he could rely on to exchange for items in the micro-store.
However, seeing that the zombies had calmed down, Su Bai was also relieved. He prepared to go back and check on Lin Cheng-ying. Because there were only him and Gyatso now, each of them had a place to suppress the zombies. Lin Cheng-ying was not guarded by anyone, so Su Bai always felt uneasy.
However, just as Su Bai turned around and was about to leave, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. He then turned back and looked at the phalanx of zombies below him.
He walked down very slowly, passing through the zombies. Finally, he stopped in front of a zombie.
"I was wondering why something was wrong. So it's here."
This zombie seemed to be old. It did not look much different from the other zombies. Its face was ashen, but there was a detail on its Manchurian official uniform.
The horror broadcast might have changed some things for the sake of the story. For example, Lin Cheng-ying was originally an active figure during the Republic of China, but now he had appeared in the Qing Dynasty. For example, during the Qing Dynasty, people actually dared to dress these zombies in clothes that resembled the official uniform.
Fortunately, the horror broadcast paid attention to a certain degree. These official uniforms did not have specific symbols. For example, the first, second, and third official uniforms would have different symbols and animals embroidered on them. During the Qing Dynasty, there were birds embroidered on civil officials' uniforms, and animals embroidered on military officials' uniforms. It was originally meant to refer to officials, but because the actions of the officials were truly disappointing, the term "beast in human clothing" gradually became derogatory.
The rest of the zombie official uniforms only had this style, with some random mountains, rivers, and flowers embroidered on them. However, the one in front of Su Bai had a qilin embroidered on its chest.
What did the embroidery of a qilin mean?
First-grade military official!
Facing this zombie, Su Bai opened his mouth and blew on it. The talisman on the zombie's forehead gently fell off. At the same time, the zombie also slowly opened its mouth.
