Chapter 278

Chapter 278 Representation of Zombies

After Huang Yaowen paid ang Wu a lot of money, he was anxiously waiting for the news . He waited for a long time, but no news came . He understood that something had happened .

Mu Yi still thought highly of Huang Yaowen . Although Huang Yaowen had a lot of property, his strength was far less than that of the original Su Family . It would not have been easy for him to hire Wang Wu, let alone anyone stronger than Wang Wu .

It was not that Huang Yaowen didn’t want to use the power of the government, but the zombie affairs had sent the government into a frenzy recently . The county leader was suffering and his subordinates were failing to get it resolved . How could he care about a businessman’s problems?

Businessmen were just wings attached to the survival of dignitaries . Huang Yaowen had a little bit of a relationship, but far from the respect of the left and right counties .

After he hired Wang Wu, he was out of options .

He was afraid that Wang Tieniu would come to his house again, so he fled with his family members and went to their families in the neighboring county . He did not plan to go back for a while .

Mu Yi didn’t want to take revenge on him . He even wanted to thank him for sending Wang Wu to become the stepping stone of Wang Tieniu, and awakening his talent . Likely, after Wang Tieniu practiced enough, he would clear up the situation on his own .

This morning, Xiao Lian came to Mu Yi in a hurry accompanied by Wang Tieniu . Looking at the expression on their faces, Mu Yi knew that something must have happened .

“Brother Mu, the zombie is back,” Xiao Lian said .

“Again? Didn’t they say it was killed?” Mu Yi asked .

“I don’t know what’s going on, but that’s the news that came this morning from a different village . It’s only a few miles away from us . ”

Xiao Lian’s face was pale, and there was a flash of fear in her eyes .

It was very close . If zombies came to their village, the consequences would be unimaginable .

“Don’t worry, even if there is a zombie coming, I will make it never come back,” Mu Yi said lightly .

He wasn’t fully recovered, but he still had this confidence, and he doubted it was a real zombie .

“Thank you, Brother Mu . ” Xiao Lian was relieved at last .

Mu Yi ignored Xiao Lian, looked at Wang Tieniu and asked, “How goes your blood tempering?”

“Master, most of it has been tempered . I should be done in a few days,” Wang Tieniu said excitedly . His body was changing every day, and his strength was increasing . He was a little frightened by that progress, but he was more excited than afraid .

According to Mu Yi, as long as he could thoroughly temper his blood, he could become a third-class expert and protect himself to some degree in the world .

“You’re diligent . It’s very important for you to temper your blood . You must not be careless . Besides, you should pay more attention in the days ahead . ” After Mu Yi finished, a mysterious feeling suddenly rose in his heart, as if his words had touched something .

What is this? Cause and effect? Mu Yi was shocked . He said it casually, but didn’t expect to cause such a change . The zombie has to come here?

Mu Yi had a little more fear in his heart . He wasn’t afraid of the zombie, but from the heaven in the dark .

Since he was injured, his mind had become more sensitive . Mu Yi didn’t know if these feelings and sense forewarnings were good or bad .

Regardless, he had a sense of urgency . He had to recover his strength as soon as possible .

Mu Yi had seen talent and potential in Wang Tieniu and was sure that he’d achieve something in the future .

Mu Yi quickly put it out of his mind . No matter what Wang Tieniu’s future would be, it was all his business . At present, he needed to recover his strength as soon as possible . Otherwise, once Ning Wuque or some other first-class expert found him, he would not be able to bear it .

Thinking of this, Mu Yi sat at the table and continued to sketch the rejuvenation charm . He had not succeeded yet, but he wasn’t discouraged . On the contrary, there was even a trace of pleasure in his eyes because he felt that with continuous practice, he would eventually touch the core of the charm . Once he mastered that, he would be able to draw the rejuvenation charm and use it to heal himself faster .

Outside the peaceful village, zombies reappeared and spread all over the county quickly, inflaming the county . The government staff had sworn that the zombies had been eliminated, but they weren’t . It was like a slap in the face . It was not a good thing for him to make people panic during his administration . The public opinion of him would plummet and threaten his future . He had to react quickly .

“Constable Zhu, what did you tell this office before? What’s your explanation now?”

The county government’s office was in a panic . Standing in the hall was a middle-aged man with a beard . He was powerful and had a strong evil spirit .

“In reply, county magistrate, the zombie has indeed been killed by me, but there is also a master of the zombie who escaped . It’s hard to ensure that he won’t refine another zombie . Please rest assured that I will kill the sorcerer,” Zhu Yun said in a loud voice . He was annoyed . The sorcerer cultivating zombies had been injured . He hadn’t gotten far, and had decided to return . It was clearly a provocation, so he could not be allowed to escape this time, or it would be a disaster .

“Well, that’s what you said . I don’t care about zombies or monsters . I’ll give you two days . You have to calm down all this . If you can’t do it, you will lose your position as constable . ”

The county magistrate looked at Zhu Yun coldly .

“Yes, my lord . ”

Zhu Yun seemed to be shocked . Although the other party was just an ordinary person, he was powerful in other ways that Zhu Yun would not challenge him .

“All right, leave . ” The county magistrate waved, and Zhu Yun left .

After Zhu Yun left, Yang Yan got up and went back to his house . He was only 40 years old this year . He had not reached the position quickly, but he had not lagged behind his classmates . A position in Beijing would be more wide-reaching, but it couldn’t compare with the power of being the county magistrate . If he worked hard, he might go further next year .

“Master, this is the soup that I cooked for you . Please calm down . ” As soon as Yang Yan arrived at the back house, a charming young woman brought a bowl of soup . He made her his concubine last year . Although she was only a concubine, she was very loved by Yang Yan because of her beauty and likability .

“Hum, a group of poor people can’t even do small things . My reputation is going to be ruined,” Yang Yan said angrily .

“Why do you mind what those pariahs say? As long as there is money, what reputation is there before you want it?” The concubine came behind Yang Yan, held out a pair of white delicate like jade hands, and began to massage Yang Yan’s shoulders .

Yang Yan leaned on the chair, his head rested between her breasts, and his expression eased into one of comfort .

“Although it’s just a group of pariahs, if it spreads to the ears above, it will inevitably leave the impression of incompetence . But since it has happened, you can go to the state capital for a walk in two days,” Yang Yan said with his eyes closed .

“Yes, sir . ”

His favorite concubine’s eyes were full of disgust, but her hands grew weaker and weaker . She slowly leaned her chest against Yang Yan’s shoulder, and her two fingers slipped down gently .

Yang Yan felt a fire rising in his heart . He grabbed the concubine’s hand, pulled her into his arms, and began to play lightly .

“No, sir . ”

“No? The master must have it . ”

After a while, they passed out, and the two maids at the door were flushed .

Zhu Yun left the county government’s office on horseback . His destination ws the village where the murder happened . Two days wasn’t long enough, but he also understood his county magistrate’s character . He would not change his mind .

Fortunately, the sorcerer had been severely injured . It would be much easier for him to find the other party than last time .

At this time, Wang Tieniu was refining his blood . He was not willing to waste any time . He didn’t even fish . Mu Yi had given him all of the one thousand liang of silver, and he gave it to his family so they wouldn’t have to worry about eating .

With the continuous refining, his whole body looked more and more refined . His entire body was red, his temperature was much higher than that of ordinary people, but Wang Tieniu didn’t feel any discomfort . He just felt that his body was full of power and he wanted to vent .

On this point, Mu Yi told him prior to him starting to temper that he had to hold back . Otherwise, the tempering would be impure and the effect would be greatly reduced . Wang Tieniu strictly followed Mu Yi’s warning .
