Bai Qiuye didn’t believe a single word he said.
Ge Zixuan said to her, “Let’s go. Let’s finish the job together.”
Bai Qiuye stopped. “Tell me the truth. What happened?”
Ge Zixuan looked back, his face full of anxiety. “I just heard the sound of nails scratching the ceiling downstairs. I’m worried that it’s that zombie …”
Bai Qiuye asked in confusion, “Isn’t that zombie on the third floor? How did it find you?”
Ge Zixuan helplessly took out something. “Actually, I didn’t tell the complete truth before … I took this from her.”
Bai Qiuye was dumbfounded when she saw it. “You’re too awesome.”
Ge Zixuan was holding a string of money.
Money was usually stuffed into a corpse’s mouth when it was buried to prevent the corpse from coming back to life.
As for a zombie, the effect was probably better than normal.
No wonder Ge Zixuan wanted to seek wealth in danger. He would rather take the risk of faking his death and take the money in his mouth away.
Ge Zixuan said, “Anyway, I don’t dare to stay on the mezzanine floor. I’ll just go upstairs with you.”
Bai Qiuye hurriedly waved her hand. “No, no, no, I don’t want to go with someone as awesome as you.”
Ge Zixuan said in horror, “Ye Ye, we’ve been through a lot together. You can’t abandon me.”
Bai Qiuye continued to wave her hand. “Don’t talk nonsense. Who has shared experiences with you?”
Ge Zixuan: “I understand what you mean.”
Bai Qiuye’s eyes were confused for a moment.
What did he understand?
Ge Zixuan stretched out five fingers. “I’ll give you 50 survival coupons. Let’s do the task together.”
Bai Qiuye’s eyes were glued to his five fingers. “No.”
Ge Zixuan: “Then 100 is fine. I don’t have any more.”
He had just seen the power of Bai Qiuye’s hand tearing apart the long-haired ghost. His opinion of Bai Qiuye had changed.
For the first mission, he had pestered Bai Qiuye to get Hei Chunhua’s help.
But now, his goal was to be protected by Bai Qiuye herself.
Whether it was because Bai Qiuye had special props or the buff from the part-time job, Ge Zixuan had already realised that Bai Qiuye definitely had the strength to survive.
Bai Qiuye heartlessly refused. “No.”
Ge Zixuan gritted his teeth. “I’ll give you half of the money in my mouth.”
Bai: “Emmm —”
Ge Zixuan almost knelt down before her: “There are ten in total, I’ll take three and you’ll take seven. No, I’ll take two and you’ll take eight. Is that okay?”
Bai Qiuye said, “Wait.”
Ge Zixuan wanted to give her the money on the spot, but Bai Qiuye sternly refused.
Bai Qiuye: “Our experience together hasn’t even started yet. If you give it to me now, I won’t accept it without doing anything.”
Ge Zixuan was speechless for a moment. “I’m not used to you suddenly being so upright.”
Bai Qiuye laughed dryly.
She was mainly worried that if she touched the money in his mouth, she would be targeted by the zombie.
If anything happened, she would have nowhere to run.
Seeing that the dust had settled, Ge Zixuan suggested, “Then let’s go upstairs, Ye Ye.”
Bai Qiuye said: “I want to go downstairs.”
Ge Zixuan was stunned: “What are you doing downstairs?”
Bai Qiuye said, “Mainly, there’s something I’m very concerned about.”
When it came to going downstairs, Ge Zixuan was extremely reluctant, but he didn’t want to act alone, so he followed Bai Qiuye reluctantly.
Bai Qiuye asked, “You said this is Block A, Building 2?”
Ge Zixuan nodded. “That’s right. I was in charge of this building. I didn’t go anywhere else after I climbed up the pipe. ”
Bai Qiuye said, “We’re going to the fourth floor of Block B, Building 2.”
Ge Zixuan was relieved when he heard that Bai Qiuye was going to a different place from where he met the zombie.
He asked, “Why are you going downstairs? Didn’t you say that you’re done patrolling?”
Bai Qiuye said, “You talk too much. You’ll know when we get there.”
Ge Zixuan was speechless.
Was he spending money to pay for his suffering?
The two of them went downstairs after reaching Block B, Building 2. As soon as they stepped into the corridor, they saw Gao Lang’s almost broken body not far away.
“Ugh!” Ge Zixuan was shocked. “He died too tragically.”
Bai Qiuye said, “He became like this after he died.”
Ge Zixuan had heard about the curse from Bai Qiuye when they went downstairs. He asked in confusion, “If it wasn’t the curse, who did it?”
Bai Qiuye said, “What if it was a person?”
Ge Zixuan said, “… You mean, someone took the time to kill him. Why?”
Bai Qiuye turned her head. “If I knew, why would I come here?”
The altar was a mess. The door of the hostess’s house was wide open, but she was nowhere to be seen.
Bai Qiuye squatted in front of Gao Lang’s body and used the extinguished candles on the altar to nudge the body.
Ge Zixuan looked at her expressionless face and couldn’t help but be shocked.
Ge Zixuan said, “Don’t you feel scared when you see something like this?”
“What would I be scared of if there’s nothing dangerous?” Bai Qiuye said. “The only thing I’m scared of is death. If something makes me feel danger, I’ll definitely be scared, and I’ll be scared beyond imagination.”
Ge Zixuan said curiously, “Then Gao Lang’s body didn’t make you feel danger?”
“Because I already guessed it.” Bai Qiuye’s eyes changed. “I’ll definitely make the danger disappear.”
Bai Qiuye pulled Gao Lang’s head over.
She couldn’t see Gao Lang clearly when he fell from the sky.
Now that she looked closer, there was indeed a mark that didn’t belong to a rope.
Ge Zixuan said, “It looks like it was pinched out.”
Bai Qiuye rummaged through the flesh a few more times and suddenly found a slender object stained with blood.
“His intestines?” Ge Zixuan said, “That’s too disgusting.”
Bai Qiuye shook her head. “No, his intestines weren’t squeezed out at the time. Someone else left this.”
The two of them looked at it for a long time but couldn’t recognize what it was.
Bai Qiuye opened the packaged food that had fallen from the altar and poured out the contents, leaving only a bag.
Ge Zixuan said, “F*ck, what are you doing?”
Bai Qiuye said, “Putting it in.”
Ge Zixuan was shocked. “You’re actually more awesome than me!”
Bai Qiuye said disdainfully, “This is totally different from the money you put in your mouth.”
Ge Zixuan heard this and felt that what she said made a lot of sense.
No matter how he looked at it, taking money from a zombie’s mouth and picking up an inconspicuous object from a corpse were all more impressive.
While he was thinking, his walkie-talkie suddenly rang.
“Ge Zixuan?”
“I finally got in touch with you guys!” Ge Zixuan said excitedly.
At this time, Bai Qiuye’s walkie-talkie also rang.
“Where are you?” Li Gushu’s voice came from the other side.
“I’m on the fourth floor.” Bai Qiuye said, “What’s wrong?”
“Hurry up and leave the fourth floor.” Li Gushu’s voice became anxious. “Run upstairs! All the residents on the third floor and below have turned into a zombie! ”
Bai Qiuye and Ge Zixuan heard this and immediately stood up and ran towards the stairs.
When they reached the stairs, they heard thumping sounds coming from below. It sounded like a lot of people were jumping on the ground.
Bai Qiuye glanced at Ge Zixuan.
Ge Zixuan: “… Maybe it’s my fault.”
Bai Qiuye: “Eliminate the possibility.”
The two of them ran up without saying anything and smoothly ran all the way to the eighth floor.
Bai Qiuye found that Li Gushu and Ge Zixuan’s group were standing at the stairs to the eighth floor.
Bai Qiuye asked, “Only you guys?”
Li Gushu said, “I didn’t get in touch with the others.”
Hei Chunhua wasn’t there. Zhong Xuan’s group wasn’t there either.
Bai Qiuye tried to contact Zeng Xianqing through the walkie-talkie, but there was no response.
Ge Zixuan asked, “Since you guys are already on the eighth floor, why don’t you guys go to the ninth floor and finish the second task?”
The people in his group cursed, “Damn you, you really know how to order us around. Are you waiting to win without doing anything?”
“That’s not what I meant.” Ge Zixuan rubbed his nose and turned to ask Bai Qiuye, “Right, Ye Ye?”
Bai Qiuye: “Everyone already knows about your intentions.”
Ge Zixuan: “…”
“That’s not the reason why we’re not going to the ninth floor.” Li Gushu said seriously, “The iron door to the ninth floor is locked. It’s the same no matter which building it is.”
Bai Qiuye asked, “Can we break the door open?”
The others: “…”
Li Gushu sighed and said, “It’s not that I don’t want to break it open. You’ll know when you go up.”
Bai Qiuye heard this and walked up to the floor. She saw that the iron door between the eighth and ninth floor was already closed.
The lock that locked the door was covered in thick talismans.
Not only that, but there were talisman papers tied to every iron bar on the door.
Even though she couldn’t directly see what was inside, she couldn’t help but feel apprehensive when she saw how it looked.
Bai Qiuye noticed that the talismans were bright yellow. The talismans drawn on them were used to ward off evil spirits.
“When I came to send the notice, this door wasn’t closed yet.” Li Gushu frowned and said, “I don’t know who locked it when I came up the second time.”
Bai Qiuye guessed, “Could it be that there is more than just the zombie you killed on the ninth floor?”
Li Gushu nodded, “It must be.”
Everyone’s expression changed. If the residents on the third floor and below were bitten by zombies, the time for them to collectively turn into zombies would soon come.
When that time came, they would very likely be stuck in the passage between the eighth and ninth floor.
Even if they could guarantee that they wouldn’t be bitten by zombies, once the time for the second task was over, they would be punished for not completing it.
“Let’s first think of a way to ensure that the eighth floor won’t be broken through by zombies.” Li Gushu said, “We’ll go to each house and ask for as much glutinous rice as we can get. You two will look for it on the eighth floor. ”
Ge Zixuan’s group replied, “Okay boss.”
Bai Qiuye and Ge Zixuan looked at each other and asked, “What about us?”
Li Gushu said decisively, “The three of us will go to the seventh floor.”
Bai Qiuye: “…”
She didn’t want to go to such a dangerous place!!!
Ge Zixuan: “…”
Bai Qiuye was currently debating between staying by Li Gushu’s side and staying on the eighth floor.
Ge Zixuan suddenly stretched out his hand, “Here, take this.”
Bai Qiuye looked and saw that it was the eight coins that Ge Zixuan owed her.
