The main course for dinner was a large portion of white rice.
The dishes were a carp and a plate of vegetables.
After all, it was a village.
It was impossible for Fang Ye to have a feast.
To be honest, this kind of food was already extremely sumptuous in the countryside at this time.
More than half of the rice went into Fang Ye's stomach.
Su Ziqiu also ate a big bowl.
She was tired and hungry after traveling for the entire afternoon.
After eating.
Su Ziqiu put down the bowl in embarrassment and whispered,""Usually, I can't eat so much…"
She didn't know why she had to explain this…
Fang Ye smiled." It's good to eat more. As your body's attributes increase, you'll need to consume more nutrients in the future. Otherwise, it'll be easy to destroy your body's balance…You should rest for a while. I'll return the bowl to the village chief."”
Fang Ye stood up and left with the empty bowls.
A moment later.
Fang Ye arrived at the village chief's house and knocked on the door.
The person who opened the door was the village chief. He was wearing slippers and seemed to be preparing to sleep.
In the village.
There were no entertainment activities at night.
The villagers usually went to bed early.
"Village chief, thank you for your hospitality. I'm here to return the bowl to you.”Fang Ye explained his intentions.
"It's not too late to come tomorrow!"
"Come in and have a glass of water," the village chief invited politely.”
Fang Ye waved his hand." I'm not drinking anymore. I'm afraid of being alone. I'm still waiting for my return."”
The village chief smiled and said,"I know, I know. Then you should go back and rest early."”
Fang Ye did not leave. Instead, he asked,""Village chief, I heard you say that there are bandits nearby?”
"Yes, I am!"
"Many villages nearby have been robbed," the village chief sighed.”
"Then, Village Chief, do you know where the bandits are hiding?”
"Hmm?"
The village chief was stunned. He looked at Fang Ye." Young man, are you looking for that group of bandits?" What are you doing?"
Fang Ye smiled." Thank you for taking me in, Village Chief. I have nothing to repay you for. I can only help you clear out the bandits nearby."”
"You, you want to deal with those bandits?”The village chief was even more surprised.
Fang Ye smiled faintly.
He had long seen that this village chief was not as simple and honest as he looked on the surface.
In the afternoon.
The village chief had agreed to let him and Su Ziqiu enter the village not because he was kind-hearted, but because he knew that Fang Ye was not to be trifled with. He was afraid that refusing would anger Fang Ye.
After all, how could a person who could carry a coffin with a corpse inside be an ordinary person?
There was a reason why he had sent Fang Ye dinner at night. It was to appease Fang Ye…
Of course.
There was no need for Fang Ye to say it out loud even if he knew about it.
He saw through it but did not say it.
"Village Chief, I'm sure you can tell that I have some strength. I've practiced martial arts when I was young, so it shouldn't be a problem for me to deal with a group of bandits.”
The villager chuckled when he heard that. He knew what Fang Ye meant and pointed to the left happily.
"The bandits 'lair is on that mountain over there!”
Fang Ye looked in the direction that the village chief was pointing at. Under the moonlight, he could vaguely see a small mountain.
"Alright, Village Chief. I'll drive these bandits away tomorrow morning!”
Hearing this, the village chief said very politely,"Thank you, warrior. Tomorrow morning, the villagers will send you off!"”
"I won't disturb Village Chief's rest then." Fang Ye smiled in satisfaction.”
……
In the woodshed.
Su Ziqiu heaved a sigh of relief when Fang Ye returned.
After all, she was still a girl.
She would definitely be afraid if she stayed with the coffin all the time.
In particular, there was a corpse that was about to turn into a zombie in the coffin. It looked very eerie.
" Fang Ye, according to Professor Zhou's timing, this zombie should be turning into a zombie tonight…"
Su Ziqiu couldn't help but remind him.
Fang Ye could see Su Ziqiu's uneasiness and comforted her,""I know. Go to sleep first. I'll wake you up if there's any movement.”
"Don't worry, with me around, there won't be any problems!”
Su Ziqiu would have scoffed if someone else had said that.
However, she believed Fang Ye's words!
That was because, in Forbidden Area No. 2, Fang Ye had " saved " her without hesitation even when he had to face the pursuit of the Lickers alone.
"Aren't you sleepy?" Su Ziqiu asked.
Fang Ye shook his head." My Spirit attribute is high. It's fine if I don't sleep for a night."”
Fang Ye was not bragging.
With his current spiritual power, even if he did not sleep for two nights, it would not affect his combat strength.
Su Ziqiu didn't say anything else.
She lay down obediently.
With Fang Ye by her side, she felt at ease.
……
It was about 11 o'clock in the morning.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a sound came from the coffin.
The voice wasn't loud.
However, in this quiet night, even the smallest sound would be amplified several times.
Su Ziqiu was startled awake and looked at the coffin with fear.
"Go outside and close the door. Don't let anyone get close. Leave this to me!”
Fang Ye's voice came from the darkness.
Su Ziqiu looked at Fang Ye.
She had the illusion that Fang Ye's eyes were unusually bright in the darkness.
"You have to be careful…"
Su Ziqiu reminded him, stood up and walked to the woodshed.
Although she was a little afraid, she did not go far and stayed at the door of the firewood room.
At this stage of the plan, she was no longer allowed to retreat.
Next.
Whether Fang Ye could tame the zombie was the most crucial step in his plan.
If Fang Ye failed, the two of them would end up together!!
