Chapter 391: Chapter 391: Found on the Road

Bai Xiqin looked at Zhang Yiming, who suddenly appeared normal in front of her, utterly confused.

“Who were you fighting with just now? We could sense it from far away,” Bai Xiqin asked again.

The hostility scared the nearby zombies into trembling.

That’s why Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai came over to see who was fighting.

When they arrived, the battle had already ended, leaving only scorched earth and a few zombie corpses.

At that moment, they heard a loud noise from afar and came over to see Zhang Yiming had crashed his car into a tree.

“It was a high-rank zombie, but everything is fine now,” Zhang Yiming said gently.

“High-rank zombie? Were you fighting over territory?” Leng Yebai’s eyes flickered with surprise.

He thought zombies, like animals, fought over territories by scent.

Animals can mark territory by urinating.

He wondered if a certain Zombie Emperor had such a function.

“No, it’s just that I found the other side unpleasant.”

Zhang Yiming noticed the surprise in Leng Yebai’s eyes and twitched his lips slightly.

He felt that guy always thought about strange things.

Bai Xiqin felt things weren’t that simple but didn’t press on.

Zhang Yiming didn’t want to say more, so she didn’t ask, thinking he had his reasons.

The east had begun to lighten up, and in a few hours, it would be dawn.

Bai Xiqin yawned.

Awoken by the commotion, she and Leng Yebai hadn’t slept well.

“You should head back and rest!”

Zhang Yiming glanced at the sleepy Bai Xiqin, a hint of regret flickering in his eyes.

If he had known, he would have fought with his future self farther away.

“Alright, next time drive slower and avoid crashing into trees.”

Bai Xiqin glanced at the broken tree.

In the age of superpowers, even a motorcycle could break a large tree with several people hugging it.

The power was not to be underestimated.

Bai Xiqin felt Zhang Yiming was becoming more like Bai Yifan, driving recklessly.

“I understand.”

Zhang Yiming nodded gently, moving his fingers imperceptibly.

“Okay, we’re off then!”

Bai Xiqin noticed the melancholic aura around Zhang Yiming, stepped forward, and patted him on the shoulder for comfort.

Leng Yebai, feeling aggrieved, immediately pulled Bai Xiqin’s fingers into his palm, rubbing away the scent belonging to a certain Zombie Emperor.

“Be careful when you encounter Wang Ge, try not to engage directly, leave it to me.”

Zhang Yiming threw a barely noticeable eye roll at Leng Yebai, speaking gently to Bai Xiqin with a warm smile.

Bai Xiqin’s being ambushed was something he already knew clearly through brainwaves.

“We’re strong too, he definitely can’t beat us, thanks for your help last time,” Bai Xiqin smiled at Zhang Yiming.

It’s always more satisfying to take revenge oneself.

“He has forces behind him, don’t act rashly,” Zhang Yiming said earnestly.

“Okay, you be careful too, his target isn’t just us,” Bai Xiqin said.

Zhang Yiming’s face carried a soft smile, “Alright.”

“Let’s go!”

Leng Yebai gave Zhang Yiming a sidelong glance, pulling Bai Xiqin away.

Zhang Yiming watched their backs, his long fingers gently touching his shoulder, letting out a barely audible sigh.

Xiao Niu seemed so delicate, why was his shoulder so sore?

Could it be after eating Ganmu, his body became more sensitive to pain?

Just a gentle pat and… it really hurt?

Zhang Yiming was completely puzzled.

Faintly, Zhang Yiming could still hear Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai’s conversation.

“Leng Yebai, when did you carry a sack?”

“Just now!”

“Put it down, it looks pretty heavy and is all black and dirty, throw it away.”

“There are crystal cores inside.”

“What??? Where did you get so many crystal cores from?”

“Picked them up along the way.”

Zhang Yiming: …

Try picking them up again, why don’t you?

Footsteps were heard again from afar.

Bai Xiqin stood on tiptoe and twisted Leng Yebai’s ear, walking towards Zhang Yiming.

“Put it down!” Bai Xiqin rolled her eyes at Leng Yebai.

Picking things up was good, especially a bunch of crystal cores.

But these belong to her old classmate, she couldn’t bring herself to openly take them!

Ahem, with just her and Leng Yebai coming here, it was easy to guess they were the ones carrying them away.

Leng Yebai reluctantly put the sack of crystal cores off his shoulder onto the ground and bent down expressionlessly, allowing Bai Xiqin to pull his ear.

“These aren’t mine; they should belong to the high-rank zombie. Since you found them, you can have them, anyway, I don’t lack these,”

Zhang Yiming gently touched his shoulder, speaking softly.

Neither he nor Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming had a craze for gathering crystal cores.

Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming, on the other hand, collected every crystal core, not saying why, though Zhang Yiming knew.

He knew Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming wanted to collect more crystal cores, so they could serve as a backup plan for Xiao Niu.

In the apocalypse, crystal cores were still the most important.

“We can’t take them; they’re your spoils of war!”

Bai Xiqin firmly shook her head, pulling Leng Yebai by the ear and heading towards the bus.

Leng Yebai glanced at Zhang Yiming, his eyes filled with smugness, bending and tilting his head as he followed Bai Xiqin.

Even being tugged by Xiao Niu’s ear, Leng Yebai felt “rich.”

He had a wife!

Zhang Yiming rubbed his shoulder again, his face twitching slightly.

If they didn’t want them, then so be it.

After all, they would end up going to her anyway, so keep them with him for now!

Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai’s visit somehow lifted Zhang Yiming’s spirits, and the piercing pain in his heart wasn’t so intense anymore.

Zhang Yiming took a deep breath, bent down to lift the motorcycle, placed a sack of crystal cores in front, and rode off.

The motorcycle sped along the road, then gradually slowed down.

Riding at the speed of an electric bicycle.

She said to drive slower, so he would.

When Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai returned to the parked bus, it was already morning in the east.

Having just laid back in bed on the second floor for a while, the Bai Family began to wake up one after another.

It was Leng Yebai’s turn to cook today.

Leng Yebai, with swollen ears, prepared several small dishes and cooked a pot of millet porridge.

All the ingredients came from the space, simply cooked, yet more flavorful and rich than ordinary food.

“Where are we heading today?” Bai Yifan sipped the millet porridge and asked.

They got outmaneuvered yesterday; logically, they should find Wang Ge for revenge.

But given the current situation, Wang Ge could command many high-rank zombies, and the Bai Family couldn’t win against them.

If they couldn’t beat them, they should endure for a while and then strike back.

“Head in that direction!” Bai Xiqin decisively pointed.

That direction was where Wang Ge left.

It also pointed to the Yellow River.

Simultaneously, it was the direction where middle-aged Bai Zhengxuan and his wife were hiding in a tree.

The Bai Family didn’t see it, but Bai Xiqin did, her eyes flickering, though she said nothing.

As long as she was there, the family would escape Wang Ge’s clutches.

They could search for Wang Ge’s tracks and visit the Yellow River along the way.

The Yellow River, Mother River.

This is the origin of Huaxia civilization.

In times when the Yellow River caused disasters, it was a dreaded river.

Before the apocalypse, there were many legends, and whenever the Yellow River flooded, the elderly would say there was a Flood Dragon inside, turning over.

After the apocalypse, Bai Xiqin also heard of a mysterious presence there, worth checking out.

Perhaps in the apocalypse, they might find some opportunity.

Opportunities were abundant in the apocalypse, as long as you dared to venture out, and explore, you could find plants or mutant animals beneficial for superpower users.

They couldn’t let Wang Ge go nor miss out on opportunities.

No one in the Bai Family disagreed with Bai Xiqin’s suggestion.

All along, the Bai Family almost always agreed with Bai Xiqin’s words, and because of this, the family grew stronger (except for Bai Yifan).
