Every time I am reborn, I see my old Gong turning into a zombie

At noon the next day, the scorching sun had not yet passed the top of the sky, and Dongfei Village was peaceful.The zombies seemed never to be tired. After losing Lin Yu's leadership, they still wandered aimlessly back and forth. No one noticed that a big tree with long legs moved secretly under their noses.

Qi Mu was resting on an old tree outside Dongfei Village, staring intently at a crumbling dead leaf.The withered yellow leaves seemed unwilling to just go with the wind, hanging tenaciously on the branches, despite waves of impact from an invisible force.

After a while, Qi Mu half-closed his eyes, rubbed his bulging forehead, and murmured: "Sure enough, there is still no way to affect matter. Tsk, if it is used on people, it can only make the other party dizzy for a while by surprise. , it’s still not a powerful attack method. For zombies...those mindless guys, it’s better to use fists.”

After experimenting with the effect of mental power, Qi Mu was faintly disappointed.But when he thought that he had just awakened this ability, he was relieved again.

Strictly speaking, mental power cannot be counted as a supernatural power. The abilities in "Mercenaries of the Last Days" can be roughly divided into three categories: the elemental system that manipulates the five major elements, the strengthening system that strengthens the body locally, and the strange system that cannot be specifically classified.But no matter what kind, only a very small number of humans and zombies can awaken.

As for the ability of mental power, theoretically speaking, it is possible for all individuals with autonomous consciousness to comprehend it.However, a theory is a theory after all, and the development of the brains of humans and intelligent zombies is generally insufficient. Until Qi Mu traveled through time, none of the characters in his novels could awaken their spiritual power.

Originally, this was the inherent skill that Qi Mu equipped with the characters on the final boss side, and he hadn't written about their appearance.He was able to awaken his mental power by accident, probably because God couldn't bear to see him so miserable, so he gave him an additional cheat.

When the feeling of mental weakness subsided a little, Qi Mu stared at the dying leaf again, and continued to exercise his mental strength.

Time passed imperceptibly in his practice.

I don't know if his mental shock really played a role. When a warm breeze blew over the treetops, amidst the rustling sound of a bunch of leaves turning, the diehards who had been wrestling with him for an hour finally Reluctantly bid farewell to the branches, unfolded his body unwillingly, and floated down lightly.

"What are you doing?" At this moment, Su Xiaoxuan's familiar voice came from Qi Mu's ear.

After leaving Dongfei Village, Su Xiaoxuan returned to her human form.She is a girl with not very outstanding looks. She looks to be about [-] years old, with short hair and ears. If it is before the end of the world, she is basically the type who will be quickly drowned when thrown into the crowd.But after the end of the world, people like her who can often put a sincere and hopeful smile on their lips are rare.

"It's okay to count the leaves." Qi Mu stood up like a carp, rolled over from the branch, and landed firmly in front of Su Xiaoxuan, "How is it? Do you have any clues?"

Su Xiaoxuan shook her head lightly, smiling a little forcedly.

"It's okay, no news is good news." Qi Mu scratched his head, and said his guess awkwardly, "May I ask, your brother's name is Lin Yu, right?"

"Do you know Lin Yu?" Su Xiaoxuan looked at him in surprise, "He is my cousin, and my younger brother is called Lin Xiaoliang."

"Well, I barely know him, but when I saw him, he had already turned into a zombie." Qi Mu didn't want to mention Lin Yu too much, so he followed Su Xiaoxuan's words, "No, didn't you say that last night , is your brother your only family member left?"

Su Xiaoxuan was stunned for a moment, then said flatly: "Actually, my original name was Lin Xiaoxuan."

"I'm just asking casually. If you don't want to say something, you don't need to say it." Seeing Su Xiaoxuan's hesitation, Qi Mu took the initiative to withdraw the preface.

"It's okay, it's not something shameful. My parents met and fell in love in college. After graduation, my mother followed my father back to his hometown. She thought she had found the best destination in life. Only when she thought of coming here did she know that she had jumped into the fire pit." Su Xiaoxuan rarely sighed, and looked back at Dongfei Village with a very complicated expression, but the overall resentment was greater than nostalgia.

"Dongfei Village was still very backward at that time, and the ideas of the villagers were also very feudal. In their eyes, my mother was just a tool for giving birth to a son. So for a long time after I was born, our mother and daughter suffered Their cold eyes, family planning was strictly controlled at that time, and there was no chance to have a second child. After a long time, even my father's love for us disappeared, until 12 years ago, they secretly gave birth to me younger brother."

"Xiaoliang's birth did fulfill the expectations of my relatives, and my mother once thought that her hard life was over." Su Xiaoxuan snorted softly and said with a wry smile, "But she still didn't expect that they favored boys. They are paranoid to such an extent that they look down on girls, and they actually pour all the resources in the family on Xiaoliang."

"At that time, I was admitted to a key high school in the city, but they refused to support me to study on the grounds of 'what's the use of studying for a girl' and 'you'll be a loser to marry anyway'. My mother finally recognized them She would never wait for their repentance, so she made the most sensible decision in her life—divorce, and after that, she brought me back to Beiming City."

"At first she wanted to take Xiaoliang and me away together, but... the Lin family hated her a lot. After this farewell, she has only met my brother a few times in these years. She has always felt very guilty. So before he died, he repeatedly told me to come back and take a look no matter what, even if he has been reduced to a zombie."

Speaking of this, Su Xiaoxuan's eyes were already filled with tears.When she told about this past, she tried her best to keep calm, but after awakening her mental power, Qi Mu could clearly feel the turmoil in her heart.

Qi Mu bared his teeth secretly, feeling a pain in his heart.Although this plot was not written by him, this style of "the past of the whole world is horrible" is no different from him.

"Don't talk about these sad things, let's go to Minghai Town as soon as possible, maybe we can find some new clues there." Su Xiaoxuan is indeed a very optimistic girl, and she quickly recovered her spirits.

The two stopped talking too much, and immediately rushed towards Minghai Town.

Along the way, they encountered several waves of scattered zombies. With the cooperation of the two, there was no danger.When the two arrived under the city wall of Minghai Town, the setting sun was already hanging in the sky.

The city walls surrounding Minghai Town are still the same as when Qi Mu left, strong and solid, protecting the town like gold.

Seeing someone approaching, a square frame was opened on the city gate, revealing a pair of thieves' eyes, carefully sizing up the two of them.Two seconds later, the man shouted in surprise: "Qi Mu! You brat, where have you been these few days?"

"Lin Chuan? Why did you come to guard the gate?" Upon hearing the voice, Qi Mu recognized the identity of the gatekeeper—Lin Chuan, one of his colleagues in the massage shop.

"Oh, don't mention it. I don't want to do this drudgery either. I'm exposed to the wind and the sun." Lin Chuan complained, "It's fine if you say you are missing. , the guests didn't come, so I was assigned to work in this place."

"I'm back, why is the manager gone?" Although he expected that Chu Mu would not dare to stay in Minghai Town after being seriously injured, after confirming the news from Lin Chuan, Qi Mu still secretly relaxed. tone.

"I didn't see you on the same day. I guess I was like you. I wanted to try my luck outside the city to find that guest, but I couldn't come back." Lin Chuan said sullenly, "You really got shit luck, kid. Not only did I come back safe and sound, but I also brought back a beauty... Hey, wait, beauty, have I seen you somewhere? Are you..."

"Lin Xiaoxuan? You are Lin Xiaoxuan!"

"It's me." Su Xiaoxuan who had been silent all this time said reluctantly, "My name is Su Xiaoxuan now."

"Su Xiaoxuan...Okay." Lin Chuan said awkwardly, "I remember you and your mother went to Beiming City a few years ago, why are you back now?"

Su Xiaoxuan said flatly: "I'll come back to find my brother."

"Your brother Xiaoliang..." Lin Chuan murmured, "You came back late, Xiaoliang is already dead. When the zombies first broke into the village, I saw him killed by the mad Lin Yu. "
