"Sorry for disturbing Grandpa Zhang." Madana also said to Zhang Peng.”
"Little Brother Xiao and Miss Ma, you don't have to be so polite." Zhang Peng smiled.”
"Grandpa Zhang, just call me Xiao Yi!" Xiao Yi smiled at Zhang Peng. I feel more comfortable this way."
Grandpa Zhang was about to speak when Guo Qingyun walked in with two bowls of noodles. He said to Xiao Yi and Madana,""There's nothing good to entertain in the countryside. I made more noodles today, so you guys can make do with it!”
"Thank you, Grandma Zhang." Xiao Yi and Madana quickly thanked her.”
The noodles tasted terrible. It was the worst noodles Xiao Yi had ever eaten in his life. If it was in the past, Xiao Yi would not even bother to look at it."Things are really different now."
Xiao Yi put down his bowl and chopsticks and asked politely,""Are Grandpa Zhang and Grandma Zhang at home?”
Zhang Peng smiled and said," We live with our son. He's not at home. He went to the city with the villagers and will only be back tomorrow. Xiao Yi, you can stay in his room!" Miss Ma can stay in the guest room! Xiao Yi has been wronged. Our house only has one guest room.”
Xiao Yi smiled and said," Grandpa Zhang is right. It's good enough to have a place to stay when you're away from home. What's there to be wronged about? By the way, Grandpa Zhang, your village doesn't look small. Why is it so deserted?”
"You came from far away, so you naturally don't know. Our village is usually very lively, but it's so quiet today because the corpse herder is coming tonight, so everyone closed their doors early and didn't come out.”Zhang Peng thought for a while and told Xiao Yi and Madana the truth.
"Corpse chasing? There would be many zombies in the village at night. Aren't the villagers afraid?”Xiao Yi asked curiously.
"Who wouldn't be afraid at the beginning?!" Zhang Peng said. The villagers were all trembling with fear. After a long time, nothing had happened, so everyone felt a little more at ease.”
"Where does the corpse herder live?" Xiao Yi continued to ask.
"It's just next door. You can't go out at night. It won't be good if anything happens.”Zhang Peng repeatedly reminded Xiao Yi and Madana.
Thinking that he had good intentions, Xiao Yi and Madana quickly nodded in agreement.
Zhang Peng then said to Xiao Yi and Madana,""The old woman and I will go back to the room first. You should rest early. Xiao Yi, you will stay in the room next door. Miss Ma will stay in the room at the end.”
The two of them quickly stood up and said politely,"Grandpa Zhang, Grandma Zhang, take care."
Zhang Peng and Guo Qingyun smiled at Xiao Yi and Madana, then turned around and left.
The room suddenly became quiet. Xiao Yi and Madana sat quietly without saying a word.
"Miss Ma, I have often heard of corpse herding, but I have never seen it before. I would like to see it with my own eyes.”Xiao Yi broke the silence.
Madana smiled and said,"Since Brother Xiao is interested, let's go together!"”
Xiao Yi thought for a moment and said to Madana,""Miss Ma, can I discuss something with you?”
"Brother Xiao, if you have anything to say, just say it.”Madana said.
"Miss Ma, although we haven't known each other for a long time, we can still be considered friends, right?" Xiao Yi said seriously.”
Madana nodded.
"We still have to catch the general together, so we should be together for a long time. It's too awkward to call me brother and miss all day. If Miss Ma doesn't mind, you can call me Xiao Yi in the future! This way, I'll feel more comfortable listening to it." Xiao Yi continued.
Madana smiled and said,"Alright!" It's just a form of address, so I'll call you Xiao Yi from now on. People who are familiar with me call me Nana, so you can call me Nana too!”
Xiao Yi was about to speak when a bell rang from afar.
Xiao Yi and Madana looked at each other. It seemed that the corpse herder was here.
Xiao Yi hurriedly stood up from his seat and turned to Madana.""Nana, let's go and watch the corpse herding.”
Madana also stood up from her seat and walked out with Xiao Yi.
The two of them came to the courtyard and looked at the wall. They jumped up at the same time and landed steadily on the wall. They sat gently on the wall and waited for the corpse herder to come over.
The bell was getting closer and closer, and a string of figures gradually appeared in front of them. In front of them was a middle-aged man wearing a Taoist robe holding a bell in his hand. As he walked over, he kept shouting,"Heavenly spirit, earth spirit, Xiangxi chasing corpses, living people avoiding, scheming people on their way.”
Behind him were a dozen zombies with talismans on their foreheads. Each zombie carried a box on their back. They lined up neatly in a row and jumped behind the Taoist priest. Their footwork was very orderly.
Xiao Yi watched from the wall and was a little tongue-tied. He used to see it on TV and thought it was a lie. He didn't expect someone to really drive the corpse away.
When the Taoist priest passed by Xiao Yi and Madana, he raised his head and looked at them on the wall. He frowned slightly and went to the next room with a bunch of zombies.
Xiao Yi looked at the zombies and couldn't help but smack his lips. There were really all kinds of strange things!
Madana looked at the sky and said to Xiao Yi,""Xiao Yi, go back and rest! It's getting late."
"Help! Help!"
Xiao Yi was sleeping soundly when he was woken up by a cry. He quickly got up from the bed, put on his shoes, put on his clothes, and ran out. Xiao Yi listened carefully and realized that the voice was coming from the next room.
Xiao Yi jumped onto the high wall and looked at the neighboring courtyard. A zombie was chasing a 12 or 13-year-old boy. The boy was sweating profusely as he tried to hide. Seeing that the zombie was about to catch him, the boy shouted while hiding.
Xiao Yi was shocked and quickly rushed over. He raised his arm and slammed it on the zombie's back. He grabbed the zombie and walked in front of the boy. He took out a Corpse Suppressing Talisman and stuck it on the zombie's forehead. The zombie was frozen in place.
"Xiao Yi, what's going on?" Madana came to Xiao Yi's side.
Xiao Yi shook his head and said," I'm not sure either. I just heard the child calling for help and rushed over."”
