The night gradually darkened.
There was no longer any light outside the train window. Even the moon in the sky was shrouded in a black fog.
Xiao Lian, the servant girl, had fallen asleep on the bed. Huo Xiyu rested her chin on her hands and looked out the window."Scoundrel, why do you think they brought out an old corpse? Weren't they stupid? Someone would definitely pay attention to that thing.”
" Who knows? Maybe they've been brainwashed and think that the old corpse isn't dead yet. It's just surviving in another form. Faith was a scary thing when it went crazy.”
Without knowing the exact reason, Wu Ji could only think of the reason that the Sun Islanders had an almost crazy faith in the old corpse.
This was the only reason why they had brought a dead body out for lunch.
"Scoundrel, what time is it?" Huo Xiyu asked angrily.
Wu Ji subconsciously reached into his pocket and took out the pocket watch that the Second Head had given him. He said,""It's ten o'clock at night now."
"So fast, it's already ten o'clock. But Little Lian was thinking so much in her sleep. She really didn't care about me.”
Wu Ji smiled and said,""Then I'll sleep too. There's no one to accompany you anyway.”
"Don't be bad. I'll be even more bored if you sleep. Just thinking about that old corpse made me feel so energetic that I didn't want to fall asleep.”
"As a woman of the Huo family, you're afraid of that thing. Aren't you afraid that the head of the Huo family will teach you a lesson?”
Huo Xiyu's eyes suddenly dimmed. She smiled and said,""I'm just the most ordinary girl in the Huo family. The others are much better than me.”
Wu Ji seemed to understand what she meant. Although he didn't know what it was, he knew that Huo Xiyu might have a hidden story.
He didn't probe further. He stood up and stretched."Alright, go to sleep. I won't really take you to deal with that old corpse later. Stay in the carriage and don't run around, do you hear me?”
"I know. I knew that what you said couldn't be taken seriously, bad guy!”
Huo Xiyu seemed to have already started calling him a bad guy, and Wu Ji was too lazy to be angry with her.
He yawned and closed his eyes. However, Wu Ji was still holding the Black Tortoise Compass in his hand.
The Black Tortoise Compass was used to defend against unexpected situations, such as when the old corpse suddenly jumped out. If he couldn't react immediately, it was very likely that something would go wrong.
Wu Ji didn't say anything when he saw Huo Xiyu lying quietly beside him. The car quieted down.
As time passed, Wu Ji also fell asleep. He didn't know how much time had passed, but Wu Ji felt that he had slept for a long time. At this moment, he felt the needle of the Black Tortoise Compass in his hand throbbing violently.
Wu Ji suddenly opened his eyes, got up from his bed, and walked to the door. His movements were fast, but he did not make any noise. He did not wake Huo Xiyu up from her sleep.
Standing at the door without opening it, Wu Ji took out the Black Tortoise Compass. The compass only rotated for one second before it immediately pointed diagonally behind Wu Ji.
After pointing, the needle was still moving. Its movement was like telling Wu Ji that something was coming!
When Wu Ji saw that the needle of the Black Tortoise Compass was still moving, it opened up slightly. Squinting outside, he could hear chaotic footsteps outside.
However, the chaos did not mean that there were many of them. There was only one person's footsteps, but when they walked, it was as if they were drunk and staggering.
Wu Ji didn't go out. Not long after, a figure appeared at the door. He seemed to have noticed Wu Ji standing by the door, and he turned around and roared.
Huo Xiyu, who was sleeping on the bunk, woke up almost immediately. Wu Ji quickly made a gesture to her to keep quiet.
In the next second, the Xuanyuan Sword appeared in Wu Ji's hand. As long as that thing outside dared to come in, he could immediately end it.
However, before Wu Ji could make a move, footsteps rushed in from outside. The voice immediately stopped moving and was dragged away.
Everything happened very quickly. Wu Ji hid behind the door and did not move. Only after those people left did he look out through the gap.
It didn't matter if he didn't look, but when he saw Wu Ji, his eyes narrowed. There was a fresh head hanging on the ground. That head must be the thing that the zombie was holding just now, right? The face of that head seemed to have been from Yingzhou when they were eating!
Wu Ji was shocked, but he immediately went back to his bunk and let Huo Xiyu pretend to be asleep. Sure enough, someone soon stood at their door to listen for movement. After making sure that no one was awake, they slowly cleaned up the blood in the corridor and left.
It was quiet outside again. Huo Xiyu ran to Wu Ji's bed and asked,""What's wrong?"
"Those bastards didn't just transport one zombie. The one that appeared outside and wanted to attack us was one that we've never seen before!”Wu Ji's tone was low.
Huo Xiyu shivered and asked in a trembling voice,""You, you mean there are many zombies on this train?”
"Not necessarily, but there are at least two. What were these little Yingzhou people trying to do? Why did they bring a few zombies back to Beiping from Sand City? Were they going to bring that old corpse back to Yingzhou? If two zombies appeared in a city of ordinary people, it would definitely be a terrifying thing!”
Wu Ji's analysis was very serious, and Huo Xiyu couldn't figure it out either. In the end, Wu Ji shook his head and said,""Who cares what they want to do? Now that I've encountered them, I won't leave a single one alive!”
Wu Ji had already decided to kill her. Huo Xiyu looked at him and asked,""What are you doing?"
Wu Ji didn't respond. He went to the window of the train, lifted the curtain, and looked up at the sky.""I see. It's already past midnight. The dark clouds have dispersed and the moon is in the sky. It would be strange if the zombies on the train didn't riot!”
Wu Ji pulled Huo Xiyu to the bed and said,""Now, stay here. If any zombie comes in, remember to use these talismans. Stick as many talismans as you can. Also, don't ask me what I'm going to do. Women just have to wait for men to do things. Let's go!”
Wu Ji left immediately. He held the sword in his right hand and the Black Tortoise Plate in his left hand. His body rushed out of the narrow carriage.
