CH 34

Sunnyshies: I really thought about the husband’s death and the reason why he didn’t turn into a zombie. But when I thought about the zombies here in this series, maybe Liang Pengfei didn’t turned into a zombie because he was dead. Like he died, like you guys commented in the prev chap. After all, zombies in this series aren’t really dead. They are still alive, well, barely. And the zombie virus is really just a virus…

Anyway, here’s chapter 34! And while translating this, I felt stupid for thinking for so long, since the answer is in this chapter! Hahaha…btw, I think this is the last time our protagonists will ransack anything anywhere. After this we will proceed with the main act! 

Coming out of the peach-core space, Fang He hurriedly went to see Li Yue’s situation. Fang He first climbed up a nearby tree quietly, and looked into the car from the tree. From the broken front window, he can see Li Yue sitting in the driver’s seat.

Well, Li Yue actually fell asleep? Probably too tired. With a child with her, she must be nervous every day. But to just fall asleep like this, wouldn’t it be very dangerous.

Fang He stretched his neck and looked into the car. He only caught a glimpse of a baby in the basket, but he didn’t see the face at all. Now, knowing that little dumpling may be a high-level player, Fang He couldn’t bear it. He really wanted to see what he looked like.

Among the baby supplies he left for Li Yue, there is a very comfortable baby carrier. He didn’t know if it’s useful for Li Yue, but that old-fashioned bamboo basket is small and old, and it must be very unsafe.

It’s just that Li Yue’s body was in the way, Fang He can’t see. Fang He, who is very curious, slipped quietly from the tree, then slipped to the other side, and just poked his head out of the window there. But before he could see the basket, he suddenly became alert and dodged an attacking stainless steel fork that was exposed to light.

Wow, curiosity killed the cat!

Fang He, who dodged away, and happened to see Li Yue’s open eyes, which did not have a trace of sleepiness, and her gaze was sharp and cold with a murderous aura.

Outside, Fang He is sad inside. The sister, who originally looked gentle and lovely, now has the same chilly look as Li Zhen before.

When Li Yue saw the cat following his brother, who became a zombie, she gritted her teeth, and pain flashed through her eyes. In her opinion, since people can mutate abilities, then animals may also be able to, so this cat may be a pet cat who is reluctant to leave after Li Zhen becomes a zombie. 

But the fish soup that appeared inexplicably on the ground could not have been brought by a cat, there must be some other people around here! Who else would give her something but dare not show up?

Li Yue almost crushed her teeth before holding back the tears in her eyes. For a moment, she even wondered if Liang Pengfei was not dead, and just hid himself. But, she buried him herself, his neck was bitten off and he couldn’t even turn into a zombie…

Li Yue suddenly started the car. The off-road vehicle left a puff of smoke and dust on the small road and drove off, and Fang He hurried to catch up.

Li Yue’s speed was very fast, and she traveled all the way without hesitation. Fang He chased after her while worrying.

Fang He hurriedly jumped over the wall. This detached house is very simple, it’s like a typical house built in suburbs and villages. After entering the gate, there is a courtyard, then there’s a two-story hall in the front, and two supporting rooms on the other two sides, which are generally used as kitchens and storage rooms.

The structure is clear at a glance, and there are no people, so it is a more suitable temporary residence for Li Yue. 

Fang He breathed a sigh of relief. At least so far, Li Yue has no plans to leave here. Probably, because the child is too young, for the sake of dumpling, she was going to hide here for a while.

This place is still some distance from the county, so there are relatively few people around, and the zombies are almost cleaned up by Li Yue. If nothing happens, with Fang He and the supplies he provided, it is estimated that it is not a problem for Li Yue and little dumplings to hide for a year or two.

Fang He squatted in the shadow of the wall, with his cat eyes staring and watching Li Yue pile up all the metal objects in the yard except the door of the gate. What’s more, there are two firewood forks, the kind used for work in the village, inserted in the wall.

Fang He felt that Li Yue probably wanted to use these two iron forks as weapons when the zombies appeared. 

Seeing this, Fang He now had a different understanding of this woman, Li Yue. When he saw Li Yue in the photo before, he thought that Li Yue was the kind of beautiful woman who is gentle and demure. Now, seeing Li Yue’s vigilance and defense against zombies, Fang He feels that Li Yue is definitely a powerful woman, and any woman in the world will become a powerful mother for her own children.

After confirming that Li Yue really intends to live here for a while, Fang He feels a little relieved, then he runs out a long distance away again. After making sure that the distance was far enough, Fang He hurriedly returned to the Peach-core Space. He felt that he needed to discuss with Li Zhen about the next plan.

He didn’t find Li Zhen in Li Zhen’s study, so Fang He looked around and found the people soaking in the lake, but Fang He could see that the effect of the lake’s water was less. They need more crystal nuclei. Only when Li Zhen becomes stronger and stronger and can fully control himself, can they go out to face Li Yue and protect the little dumplings.

Fang He squatted by the lake. To tell the truth, the methods he could think of were really limited. Apart from running around the city and looking for mutant zombies, he really didn’t know what else to do. Ordinary zombies have yet to evolve crystal nuclei, although it could be said to be a good thing, it is also a bad thing. The good thing is, Li Yue and the others will be safe for the time being, but the bad thing is, he and Li Zhen will be struggling to find crystal nuclei. He didn’t know how many mutant zombies are needed to make the lake clear, and let Li Zhen recover to the point where he can resist his own desires. 

While Fang He was thinking hard here, Li Zhen came out of the lake and raised his hand to bring the kitten over. The tiger's hand touched Fang He’s head, directly made Fang He wet, and all the fur attached to his body. Looking rather pitiful, Fang He exclaimed with his cat paws, “Clean up, we have something to do!”

Just as Fang He finished speaking, Li Zhen’s face moved closer towards him, then the tip of his nose rubbed Fang He’s pink cat nose. If it weren’t for his fur being given by Li Zhen’s tiger’s touch, Fang He must have blown up his fur at this time. Meow-wu, why is it so hot?! 

After Li Zhen hugged Fang He, he didn’t even move his hand and directly dried his body, then with his mind control, he put his clothes on.

Fang He’s cat face, which is being rubbed by the towel, is about to be wrinkled. Although he is an adult at heart, this cat body he’s in is only two months old, right? Is he really in estrus?

He quickly shook his head, what are you thinking about something messy! Fang He then poked his head out of the towel covering him, “Li Zhen, let’s go kill the zombies, you can get better with enough crystal nuclei.”

In fact, Li Zhen knew better than Fang He that his own consciousness was slowly returning. If he wants to protect his sister and nephew, he must increase his strength and restore his vitality.

“Also, the night when the zombies exploded, not only humans were affect, but it also triggered a change.” Fang He touched the Peach-core Bell mark on his neck with his cat paw. This object was special. He had never heard of such an object other than the jade.

Fang He raised his head and looked at Li Zhen and continued, “Some ancient jade ornaments have also undergone abnormal changes. They can be combined with different spaces and can store materials, but the size is varied. If we pass by a jade shop or some gold shop, let’s look for it. If we can find a storage space for Li Yue that would be good.”

Hearing this, Li Zhen bowed his head slightly and looked at Fang He. Seeing him like this, Fang He was a little hairy, “What are you looking at?” 

Meow-wu, he just confessed some old past, he didn’t even leave his fur behind. Poop shoveling official, what does this look mean? Did you know that when your pure black eyes stare at people, cough, this cat master still feels a little scared!

In fact, Li Zhen, who had recovered some of his own thinking, was stuck. Why does he think that his kitten is human? Not only does he want to rub his kitten’s pink soft nose with his nose, he also wants to do something else, but is He-miao a human or a cat?

Fang He cat’s paw stepped on Li Zhen’s hand, “Hey, Li Zhen, come back to god. If you have no objection, let me go!” 

Li Zhen stretched out his hand and scratched Fang He’s neck, then he came out of the space with the kitten in his arms. When Fang He was thinking about whether to return to their original route or find a separate route, Li Zhen got a car out of the space again.

Fang He looked at the car in front of him, the corners of his mouth twitched and his cat paws pointed at the car, “Can you drive it?”

In front of him is an agricultural motor tricycle…

Li Zhen got into the car, then started it under Fang He’s surprised sight, and drove down the hillside. 

As Fang He sat on Li Zhen’s lap, he clutched on Li Zhen’s arm tightly. This car was obviously not as comfortable as the off-road vehicle, and it’s very bumpy. Fang He might have been turned upside down if he didn’t grab hold of something.

Moreover, the road they took was not the original concrete road that led to the provincial road the other day, but a dirt road. Fang He didn’t know where Li Zhen was going.

After adapting to such a bumpy ride, Fang He took a breath and shouted at Li Zhen, “Where are we going, do you have a destination?”

The response he received was Li Zhen’s icy fingertips teasing his tail, Fang He was speechless. Resigning himself to his faith, Li Zhen drove all the way to an unknown place with a bumpy ride. 

Along the way, Fang He kept looking out from under Li Zhen’s arm. From the window of the tricycle, he saw the mountains getting closer and closer, and the houses on the roadside gradually disappeared.

The road under their car gradually changed from a dirt road to a narrow dirt road. Other vehicles beside the agricultural tricycle they have will probably have difficulties getting in.

Fang He looked at the surrounding wilderness and didn’t know what Li Zhen wanted to do? Find a cave for Li Yue to live in?

When their car stopped, Fang He stretched his head towards Li Zhen’s chin. As soon as he was about to say something, his back was held by Li Zhen, then he got out of the car, and then he walked straight into the mountains. 

At this time, Fang He suddenly felt that the scene was a bit familiar. For example, the fish pond they went to last time, Li Zhen also went straight all the way.

Therefore, Fang He calmed down. Since Li Zhen came here, he must have his reasons.

As soon as they entered the mountain, Fang He saw that some rocks around them would fly up from time to time, and sometimes some would fall in front of Li Zhen. Li Zhen took a closer look, then he threw it out again after that.

They went to a lot of roads in the mountains, and finally Li Zhen stopped at a place where there was a mountain stream. Fang He stretched out his head from Li Zhen’s shoulder to look at the rocks, but he really can’t see any opening pathways. 

Just when Fang He didn’t know what Li Zhen was looking for, Li Zhen stood up again, reached out and beckoned Fang He, then they continued walking into the mountains.

After going over this mountain, Fang He looked down and couldn’t understand it at all. Li Zhen actually found a quarry, is this to collect stones? Build a stronger defensive wall?

In fact, in Li Zhen’s memory, there is a jade production area in the northern part of the mountains that belongs to X County. When he was a child, his grandfather used to take him to play in this mountain. and he had also seen this quarry before. But his rigid memory was not very clear, so he could only find it all the way.

Didn’t his kitten say that some jade can inspire a different space? Then among the jade mines in this mountain, there is always a piece that can be activated. 

However, Fang He means that it is indeed jade that can inspire different spaces, but it is not this kind of uncut and carved rough stone. Most of the jade that inspires a different space is antiquities, family jade ornaments.

In the last decade or so, many people made speculation about this kind of jade ornament that could inspire different spaces. Were they left behind by ancient human beings during their cultivation? It’s just that the empty space after activating it can’t give a good proof of this inference. If it were really used by ancient humans to hold their things during their cultivation, it would be impossible for them to have nothing inside.

Li Zhen didn’t know these things, so when he put a huge stone into the space, Fang He was confused.

However, after the stone entered the Peach-core Space, a surprising scene appeared. The stone was dragged directly into the shallow water by the lake, and like an effervescent tablet falling into a glass of water, bubbling outward constantly. And when the bubbles on the surface dissipated, the stone fell to the shallow bottom of the lake. 

One person and one cat can perceive this scene. Fang He’s cat eyes widened, and he hurriedly entered the space, fearing that the lake which he finally knew how to recover would be destroyed again. However, what Fang He saw was that the lake around the stone was surprisingly clear.

Fang He’ cat paws picked up the stone twice. There are various gaps all over the stone, as if something is absorbing and dissolving it.
