Staring at Chu Huai and Yu Ke who refused the temptation of the treasure without hesitation, Yu Xianqing’s views of people had collapsed extremely.
That is the dazzling tomb of the Dao Ancestor, the god-like man who had turned the world upside down and went against the sky in his lifetime. There would be many treasures inside and if they could find that rumored elixir, then they may even be able to become immortals directly!
He didn’t expect that there would be people in this world who could treat treasures as dung.
If they were ordinary people then they wouldn’t know how good this tomb is and wouldn’t appreciate the greatest mystery of Taoism. However these two people are not ordinary ones, they are both involved in Taoism but how could both of them refuse such temptation?!
Yu Xianqing simply wasn’t convinced.
In fact, it was not that Chu Huai could refuse such temptation, but that his focus at the moment was not on this, not to mention he was also someone who would always think twice about everything and would not make decisions lightly.
What’s more, he guessed that the reason Yu Xianqing died tragically in his previous life was probably because of the secret of the tomb of the Dao Ancestor
How could he easily touch such a disaster?
No matter how good the treasure is, it has to be fate that would lead him to it, he wouldn’t blindly seek such a thing.
He wouldn’t be so arrogant just because he was reborn, and assume that a protagonist’s halo enveloped him and that he was invincible- such a thing was impossible.
More importantly, he has already guessed where the tomb of the Dao Ancestor could be. If nothing else, it is probably the tomb of the Northwest Desert that he saw on the news.
Before the apocalypse, when he saw the news, Yu Ke mentioned the dragon veins and spiritual energy to him, and all the signs corresponded to what Yu Xianqing described as what the Dao Ancestor did.
So even if he wanted to hunt for treasure, he would go quietly by himself, and there was no need to bring others and risk their lives for it.
Besides, as Yu Xianqing mentioned- the Dao Ancestor was a very powerful being, and the other party’s tomb must also be extremely dangerous. His life is more important than some treasure so all aspects regarding this must be considered before he makes a move.
As for Yu Ke, except for Chu Huai, he was even less interested in everything else.
It doesn’t matter what treasure it is, candy would probably be more attractive to him at the moment.
“Xiao-Ke, let’s leave after collecting the crystal nuclei.”
No longer paying attention to Yu Xianqing’s depressed expression, Chu Huai took Yu Ke to seize the time to collect the crystal nucleus.
He intends to leave as soon as the sun comes out. The zombies in the golden three days are afraid of the sun, and their strength will weaken under the sun’s rays so the best time to leave would be during the day when the sun was shining.
At this moment, the rest of the survivors in the house were on the watch. They can’t be constantly just chopping zombies’ heads off and they have to change shifts to replenish energy.
After everyone’s hard work, the zombies gathered by the window were almost killed.

The car sirens at the entrance of the hotel and the crashing sound at the entrance have long since disappeared.
Chu Huai looked from the cat’s eyes at the door and confirmed that there were no more zombies in the corridor.
He quickly washed the collected crystal cores with water and stored them, and then distributed the amulet promised before to the two camouflage soldiers and female nurses.
They were ready to leave.
As for the younger men who were with the muscular man, Chu Huai chose to ignore them.
They have a limited number of amulets, so there is no need to share them with those who are not pleasing to their eyes, that would be stupid.
“We don’t know when those zombies will evolve. You’d better find a safer room to hide in. Don’t try to be lucky. With the number of zombies outside, your strength won’t be enough to go out and the only thing you’ll be will be stuffing in their teeth…”
Before leaving, Chu Huai reminded the survivors in the room again.
This was so that these people who didn’t know the cruelty of the apocalypse wouldn’t get overconfident in their brains and think that they were invincible- if they were unlucky and ran out to die then if one survivor died, there would be one more zombie enemy.
Everyone nodded, holding the amulet tightly with all their faces full of anxiety.
Regardless of whether they believed him or not, the fear of being surrounded by zombies last night was still very scary when they think of it, unless they were really stupid, they would not attempt to run out.
After two days, they will see that the evolved zombies are powerful, and no one will need to remind them again.
When Yu Xianqing saw them leave, he thought about it and gritted his teeth.
With a thickened face, and under Yu Ke’s gaze, he quickly packed up and followed behind. Then he raised his hand and surrendered to show his position, “The road you are heading towards is the same as mine, I’ll accompany you and find my relatives on the way!”
It would be strange if Yu Ke believed this.
“Forget it, leave him alone, let’s go.”
Chu Huai was too lazy to talk with this evildoer and motioned everyone to go.
They must hurry during these golden three days, they have no time to waste, and there is no need for him to go and fight with Yu Xianqing.
He did not believe that this kind of person who was able to toss around the major bases in his previous life could be controlled by him so easily. A person can’t become such a ruthless killer unless they also have some skills and backup.
Ignoring Yu Xianqing at the back and leaving the hotel, Chu Huai took Yuan Haolin and the others back to the previous aquatic product market.
They found a large truck with a higher cargo space and drove to an open space, and then Chu Huai took out some pig blood prepared in the space and splashed it around the entire truck.
Zombies are sensitive to blood, regardless of whether it is human or animal, as long as they have blood, they can smell it a kilometer away.
As soon as the thick pig blood was poured out, the zombies around the aquatic product market instantly became excited, roaring and howling to find the source of the smell.
“Brother Yuan, you teach the Dean and Xiaojie how to use a gun, and I will teach Xiao-Ke.”
Staring at the crowd of zombies crowding around them, Chu Huai calmly commanded. When the words fell, he immediately held onto the Peach Wood Sword and flew out in the air, first cutting off the heads of the zombies running in the front row.
At this moment, the world is full of spiritual energy, and it is very easy to master Taoism, even beginners can also become masters who have practiced for many years.
“Chu Huai-jun, wait for me, let me come with you…”
Unwilling to be left behind, Yu Ke actively stepped forward with an excited smile.
The Peach Wood Sword in his hand was also thrown out, and with a single move, the heads of the zombies in the second row fell on the ground again.
The scene was extremely bloody, but the two masters who caused it didn’t blink.
The crashing zombie’s head fell to the ground, and Yu Xianqing on the top of the other truck was stunned, shocked as he thought: These two husbands are so cruel…
***
At the same time, various scenes of fighting with zombies also occurred in other places.
It’s just that compared to Chu Huai’s side and the ease and calmness of a few hidden people, most ordinary people were in a panic, trying to escape and strenuously fighting.
The zombie apocalypse has come too suddenly, and it is impossible to detect patients who have no virus manifestations. There were very few people who could awaken the ability on the first day of the apocalypse. In just a few hours, the streets of the cities had fallen and were occupied by groups of zombies.
If it were not for the fact that it was night when the zombies broke out and most people were at home, and the self-rescue training organized by the government before the apocalypse, the number of deaths would be even more.
After dawn came in the morning, the survivors who had escaped the storm saw pictures of bloody corpses outside the room through the windows of the room, and their faces were all pale.
The situation in several quarantine areas for virus patients is also not optimistic.
Before the apocalypse, the number of people infected with the virus was almost countless. The quarantine area was full of patients long ago, when they changed into zombies, the quarantine area became a paradise for zombies.
Fortunately, there was an isolation net in the isolation zone, and the army immediately blocked the isolation net with vehicles to form a ‘vehicle wall’ as a barrier.
Except for the eastern zone, which was accidentally broken through, the situation in the remaining isolation zones was controlled under the strong firepower of the army.
But this situation is only temporary. The government has a limited number of soldiers soldiers guarding the quarantine area. In the face of the numerous zombies, their breakthroughs can only be delayed for as long as possible.
“Reporting to the Lieutenant General, our ammunition is about to run out, the number of zombies is too much, and everyone can hold on for half an hour at most!”
The conditions in the three isolation zones in the northwest and southwest are similar.
In the past, guarding the quarantine area was only to prevent riots. Although the number of soldiers was large, they were not equipped with too many guns and ammunition. If it were not for the management being reminded of the ‘prophecy’ obtained from above, then the army in the exclusion zone would have even less firepower.
“Are we all out of flare signals?”
A man in military uniform with the Lieutenant General logo on his shoulder frowned and fiddled with his mobile phone, trying again to see if the phone could be used.
The telephone and radio various communication tools had failed last night, and they had no other way to contact the rear to request support except by using a flare.
The signal flares can only show that there is danger, but they cannot tell the specific situation. Fighting with zombies is different from ordinary fights as zombies are practically a group of death squads.
Unfortunately, the magnetic field is still in chaos, and all communication tools are still out of use.
“Send a team of people into the city and tell them the news… The quarantine area in the west can’t be guarded. Let everyone save themselves first and wait for the government troops to arrive.”
The man with the Luitenant General logo in his uniform commanded with a heavy heart.
Communication was interrupted and contact was impossible, and no one knew when the military support from the rear would arrive. The only thing they can do in half an hour is to inform the people to hide and save themselves.
Although this news may cause many people to despair, if the news is concealed, the zombies in the quarantine area would rush to the urban area, and the people who don’t know and wait for rescue will die even more miserably.
“Yes, Lieutenant General!”
The report soldier nodded sadly, and went down quickly, hurrying to spread the news.
The lieutenants in the remaining two quarantine areas also made the same decision tacitly.
This kind of response is the only one they can give- with communications not working and backup gone, all people can only rely on themselves, and the government also needs to clean up the internal zombies and stabilize themselves before they have time to rescue the masses.
City B, in the meeting room for the highest government leaders.
The high-level leaders sat on their chairs, listening to the gunshots and howling of zombies outside the building, faces pale.
“It’s true, the prophecies came true…”
Several older leaders who were relatively old each held a ‘Prophecy Warning Letter’ printed out on A4 paper and trembled in their voices. Up to this moment, the news of the apocalypse was still unbelievable.
According to the letter, a more terrifying thing is still gonna come, far more terrifying than the start of the apocalypse.
If they hadn’t been alert and prepared in advance then most of the people here would have already died. Even if they survived, with the apocalypse coming so suddenly then the government would be useless overnight.
“Let’s study the main points in this letter carefully, and when the magnetic field stabilizes and communication resumes, we will immediately notify the troops everywhere to implement the plan…”
The old chairman sitting in the middle looked like there was a heavy weight on his shoulders and presided over the discussion of their response to this crisis.
