Both were zombies, both named Lan Zhi, and even bore a resemblance to the Lan Zhi of later generations.
Coincidence?
Coincidence my foot!
The skinny man drew his large sword from his spatial storage and slashed directly.
“Skinny!” Fu Ke was startled; before she even knew what was happening, the skinny man had already drawn his sword.
Someone was going to attack him, and this time, without Fu Ke saying anything, Lan Zhi instinctively dodged. Although he wasn’t used to this zombie body, he was still a third-tier zombie, and his speed wasn’t slow.
He dodged just before the skinny man’s sword came crashing down, his blood-red eyes behind his sunglasses slowly narrowing.
Then a hoarse sound came from his throat, indicating his displeasure.
Anyone would be unhappy if someone suddenly drew their sword to kill them for no reason.
The skinny man looked at Fu Ke, his anger rising rapidly, but he kept telling himself that Xiao Bai didn’t know, Xiao Bai had no idea what happened next.
“I’ll explain later. Today, I’m going to kill him!” As he spoke, the large sword in his hand pointed directly at Lan Zhi.
“Skinny, I promised his brother I’d take him to the D City base to wait for him,” Fu Ke said to Skinny.
Skinny squinted at Fu Ke, his movements even more similar to his past self: “Xiao Bai, this is our enemy, a blood feud! I swore after I woke up that I would kill him in this lifetime!”
Besides finding Brother Long and Xiao Bai, Skinny’s biggest goal was to kill Lan Zhi, the man who killed Xiao Bai in his past life and then effortlessly killed him and Brother Long.
Skinny and Brother Long both woke up at the last moment of their deaths, but by then, it was too late; they couldn’t even self-destruct.
Going to seek revenge, only to be easily killed by their enemy, Skinny was unwilling, unwilling to die without avenging Xiao Bai, to die so ignominiously.
Even though he was reborn, those things had truly happened; he had experienced them firsthand. Even rebirth couldn’t erase his past life’s experiences, so he would definitely kill Lan Zhi.
Fu Ke saw the skinny man’s furious eyes, as if he wanted to tear Lan Zhi to pieces.
But when she recalled her past life, she didn’t seem to remember Lan Zhi. So, after her death, had the skinny man and Lan Zhi developed some kind of connection?
For a moment, Fu Ke didn’t know what to do.
After the skinny man finished speaking, he rushed forward. Lan Zhi bared his teeth, revealing sharp fangs, his hands showing sharp nails, ready to attack.
Fu Ke, however, dodged and blocked between the two.
“Skinny, I think we should go back and have a proper talk,” Fu Ke said to the skinny man.
The skinny man looked into Fu Ke’s eyes and immediately deflated, slamming his large sword into the ground and turning his head away from Fu Ke. Clearly, he was unhappy that Fu Ke had stopped him.
Fu Ke said to Lan Zhi, “Get in the car.”
Turning to the skinny man, she said, “You and I will sit in the passenger seat.”
The passenger seat was spacious enough for two people. After Lan Zhi got in, Fu Ke looked at the skinny man, whose eyes held a hint of malice, and reached out to take his hand.
“Shall we go?” Fu Ke smiled. Even after her rebirth, she still loved white dresses, and now, wearing one, she smiled sweetly.
It was as if he had returned to his past life.
The skinny man was stunned for a moment, his anger slowly dissipating. He pursed his lips. For him, nothing was more important than Brother Long and Xiao Bai. Even though he was angry, he agreed to Fu Ke’s suggestion.
They would talk about it properly when they got back.
Their rebirth was a secret and couldn’t be revealed here.
With Fu Ke around, the skinny man couldn’t kill Lan Zhi even if he wanted to. Lan Zhi behaved himself when the skinny man wasn’t around, but if the skinny man really wanted to deal with him, he wouldn’t just sit and wait to die.
Holding the ashes, Qiu Yi sat in the truck and glanced at Lan Zhi. His master had said this person was a zombie. At that moment, Lan Zhi took off her sunglasses, and Qiu Yi clearly saw his blood-red eyes.
Just like Sister Fu’s.
Only then did Qiu Yi belatedly realize that Fu Ke’s eyes had turned red. In that situation, he hadn’t even noticed the color of Fu Ke’s eyes.
The journey was uneventful, and they soon arrived at the D City base.
The large truck stopped in front of the Exclusive Restaurant.
“Go to the base to register. After entering the base, you will begin researching the plants from the post-apocalyptic world. Find a way to extract the source of infection from the plants and then create a nutrient solution to provide nutrition for humans. Do you understand what I mean?”
Fu Ke looked at the researchers driving the truck.
The researchers immediately nodded vigorously.
“If you disobey, believe me, you will die a far more miserable death than Dr. Cheng.” Fu Ke’s face showed a sweet smile, but her words were incredibly sinister.
The skinny man, who immediately understood Fu Ke’s meaning, revealed a sinister smile. Having seen blood before, his gaze and aura nearly made the researcher wet himself.
After about ten researchers registered at the base, Fu Ke jumped out of the car and opened the door to the Exclusive Restaurant.
Lan Zhi also got out of the car and followed behind Fu Ke, while Qiu Yi silently followed, carrying the urn of ashes. Ya Ya nestled in Fu Ke’s arms, her big eyes blinking.
When the skinny man saw Lan Zhi, he couldn’t help but tighten his grip on his large knife.
Knowing that Lan Zhi was the zombie from his previous life, the skinny man’s knife never left his hand, as if he was looking for an opportunity to chop off Lan Zhi’s head.
Lan Zhi looked at the skinny man with bloodshot eyes, seemingly disdainful.
“Let’s go in,” Fu Ke reminded him just before the skinny man lost his temper.
The five people entered the Exclusive Restaurant, and Fu Ke closed the door, then they all went upstairs.
Fu Ke placed Ya Ya on the living room sofa: “Ya Ya, be good, play here for a while, okay? There’s food over there, eat if you get hungry.” She checked her phone; it still had battery, so she gave it to Ya Ya to play with.
“Okay~” Ya Ya obediently hugged the phone, dressed up like a doll by Fu Ke, sitting there, she looked incredibly cute.
“Qiu Yi, you and Lan Zhi both stay here. Skinny and I have something to talk about.” With that, Fu Ke and Skinny went into the room, leaving the others in the living room.
The room door was closed, but the soundproofing wasn’t good, so after entering, Fu Ke led Skinny into her spatial dimension.
In a flash, they were in a different place. Skinny was very surprised; he looked at Fu Ke: “Where is this?”
“My spatial dimension.” Fu Ke smiled.
A spatial dimension! Completely different from any spatial dimension they knew; it felt like another world!
Seeing the skinny man’s shocked expression, Fu Ke grinned, “I was reborn before the apocalypse, and regained my memories afterward. By chance, I obtained this space. However, although I was reborn, I still have my zombie abilities.”
Hearing this, the skinny man was somewhat envious, but despite his envy, he didn’t show any other emotions: “No wonder, so your real name is Fu Ke?”
Seeing Fu Ke nod, the skinny guy touched the tip of his nose: “But I think ‘Xiao Bai’ sounds better.”
Fu Ke: “…”
Of course you think it sounds better! The name ‘Xiao Bai’ originated from the skinny guy! The skinny guy called her ‘Xiao Bai’ just because she wore a white dress, how perfunctory!
Fu Ke and the skinny guy sat on the hillside in the space, surrounded by lush green grass. The space looked like a secluded paradise, the air so fresh.
The skinny guy lay down on the grass, feeling like he forgot everything for a moment. He just wanted to sleep here.
Seeing him fall to the ground, Fu Ke also lay down on the ground.
The two of them talked for a long time.
‘Grumble~’
Fu Ke suddenly looked at the skinny guy: “Are you hungry? There’s everything in the space, what do you want to eat? I can make it for you.”
The skinny guy was indeed hungry, but it wasn’t his stomach that was growling.
So, the skinny man looked at Fu Ke and said, “You’re the one whose stomach is growling, Xiao Bai. You’re hungry.”
“…” Fu Ke’s face turned ashen, as if she were constipated. She looked at the crystal core she had planted, which had grown into a towering tree, covered with many crystal cores. However, the crystal cores she had planted were first-tier, so those that had grown were also first-tier.
The skinny man didn’t see the tree. He took out the crystal cores he had collected since his rebirth from his spatial storage: “I’ve collected so many crystal cores, look.”
Since this was Fu Ke’s spatial storage, the skinny man simply pulled out all the crystal cores at once, piling them all over the ground. The various colored crystal cores were quite beautiful.
Fu Ke was stunned for a moment, then a sweet smile appeared on her face. Regardless of whether she still ate crystal cores or not, the skinny man who had been reborn hadn’t changed at all.
Even with such a heaven-defying spatial storage.
Fu Ke rushed over: “Skinny! You’re here, that’s great!”
Skinny was embraced and grinned: “Yeah, you’re back, that’s great.”
Fu Ke hadn’t said anything, but every time she saw Brother Long, she felt both happy and sad. Every time she completely regarded Brother Long as the Brother Long from her past life, she would have to remind herself that he and the Brother Long from her past life were not the same person, they were different.
In front of Skinny, Fu Ke opened the vortex and threw all the crystal cores into it.
Skinny looked at Fu Ke’s actions with great curiosity and then saw that the crystal cores returned in an instant. The crystal cores that returned were even brighter and clearer.
Fu Ke took out one second-tier and one third-tier crystal core and planted them, giving the rest to Skinny.
“Skinny, keep these crystal cores safe. I extracted the source of infection from it, that violent aura. You won’t have to worry about problems using it for upgrades.”
Skinny frowned. “Don’t worry about my ability upgrades. This is for you to eat. Xiao Bai, even though you’ve been reborn, to me you’re still the same person. Don’t be so formal with me, understand?”
It wasn’t formality… it was that she didn’t want to eat the crystal core at all; her stomach was growling unbearably. Luckily, she was a zombie; if she were human, she would have starved to death long ago.
“I think I don’t need to eat crystal cores anymore,” Fu Ke said helplessly.
“…” Skinny was a little confused. “If you don’t eat crystal cores, what will you eat?”
She couldn’t just not eat, could she? Her stomach had been growling earlier; it was clear she wasn’t just not eating.
Fu Ke shook her head. “I don’t know.”
The two looked at each other, unsure what to eat. Skinny and Brother Long knew about Xiao Bai getting diarrhea from eating human food, so they hadn’t considered the possibility of her eating human food.
“Will you have to eat meat?” the skinny man wondered, troubled.
Fu Ke shook her head: “I’ve tried it before, eating raw pork… it’s disgusting. It makes me want to vomit.”
“Never mind, I’ll go get you something to eat first, what do you want to eat?” Fu Ke handed the skinny man a cookbook: “Take a look, I can make anything.”
“…” Was he about to be taken care of?
Reborn, he wanted to take care of Xiao Bai, but now it seemed he was going to be taken care of by Xiao Bai?
“Anything is fine, I’ll eat whatever Xiao Bai wants to make.” The skinny man closed the book, not even glancing at it. People who have experienced the apocalypse were not picky eaters.
And he really didn’t think it was that troublesome; he felt happy just being able to eat. Many years after the apocalypse, they were living on nutrient solutions… just thinking about the taste of those nutrient solutions made him feel incredibly happy.
“…” She had originally wanted to show off his skills, but the skinny man wasn’t cooperating at all. Considering there were people outside, since the skinny man wasn’t cooperating, she wouldn’t cook in the space.
She was all set to go outside, since Ya Ya and Qiu Yi were both there. But then she suddenly remembered what he said earlier: “Skinny, do you mean the zombie king who killed me in my past life was Lan Zhi?”
