It's a hell game, who can still be a human being?

Chapter 731 It chases him, but who can escape even with wings?
Ten minutes later, the white-feathered chicken appeared at the door of the lounge on time.

"Bull and horse, let me in."

it said.

"Come in if you want, what, do I have to carry you in a sedan chair?"

The ox and horse rolled their eyes.

The white-feathered pheasant ignored it and strode confidently into the resting room, just like an emperor entering his palace.

"Hello, elder brother."

It greeted the white goose with a reserved air.

"Hello, head chef. Thank you for making this trip."

The big white goose said with a smile.

"It's one thing to owe someone a favor and have to repay it, but you're in the same boat, right, big brother?"

The white-feathered pheasant said calmly.

"Yes. Working in a restaurant is comfortable, but it's not really free. You have to rely on others for many things."

The big white goose sighed.

It was determined to spend its final days in the restaurant, and it made some of its points quite clear.

"Let's get started, the kitchen is busiest at this time."

The white-feathered pheasant had no intention of engaging in idle chatter.

"it is good."

The white goose took out a mirror from under its wing, grabbed both ends and pulled, and the makeup mirror became a full-length mirror.

"Please have the head chef look in the mirror."

It made a gesture of invitation.

Without saying a word, the white-feathered rooster walked to the mirror and stood straight.

"It should only take about five minutes. During this time, head chef, please do not move around, and none of you should touch the mirror."

After giving his instructions, the white goose pulled his suitcase and walked into the mirror.

As it walked into the mirror, the white-feathered chicken in the mirror disappeared, and the mirror surface became blank.

"Speaking of which, could this be considered a team-building activity for all three departments?"

Liu Zheng made a joke.

If we include the former head of customer service, Da Bai'e, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a meeting of the three giants.

Why don't you just say it's a friendship between livestock and poultry?

The ox and horse said irritably.

"what?"

He paused for a moment, realizing it might actually be true.

"How long are you going?"

The white-feathered rooster suddenly asked.

"I don't know, but the delivery time limit is three hours."

Liu Zheng replied.

"Then lend me 'Anger' for a while. It's perfect for processing a certain ingredient. I'll return it to you in ten minutes."

The white-feathered chicken said.

"no problem."

He readily agreed.

Anyway, he still has the "legendary deliveryman's rations and cigarettes," so even if he's really short by ten minutes, he can make up for it.

"Ah."

The white-feathered pheasant nodded and said nothing more.

Five minutes passed quietly, and the white goose walked out of the mirror.

"It's finished. Vice Minister Liu, please take a look and see if you're satisfied."

It handed the completed cosplay costume to Liu Zheng.

"Satisfied, so satisfied."

Liu Zheng looked at the cosplay outfit and praised it highly.

Not only is the shape exactly the same, but even the temperament is reproduced. Even details such as the length, luster, and gaps of the feathers are replicated one-to-one, which is even more accurate than 3D printing and laser scanning.

Even the white-feathered chicken couldn't find any fault with this other version of itself.

"That's good. And this, you know how to use it."

The white goose gave him another jar of nutrient solution for his cosplay outfit.

"I know, thank you, big brother."

Liu Zheng expressed his gratitude.

"An eye for an eye, I guess. Alright, you guys keep chatting, I'm leaving now."

The big white goose put away the mirror, pulled its suitcase, and left.

"Here you go, head chef."

He handed the "anger" to the white-feathered chicken.

"Ah."

White Feather Chicken took the knife but didn't leave immediately; instead, it stared at the cosplay outfit for a while.

Just as Liu Zheng thought it had figured out something, it suddenly took off its chef's hat and put it on the head of the cosplay costume.

With that snap, the previously dull eyes of the cosplayer immediately came to life, staring at the white-feathered chicken in front of it.

"I"

"you shut up."

The cosplay costume suddenly opened its mouth, but the white-feathered chicken was faster and ripped off the chef's hat from its head.

Without the chef's hat, the cosplay outfit immediately fell silent, but an identical chef's hat automatically appeared on the top of the head.

"We're even until you find me kitchenware that rivals the Seven Deadly Sins. Also, this is what Salmon asked me to bring you."

White Feather Chicken took out a snakeskin bag full of food from the chef's hat.

Liu Zheng took it and opened it, and sure enough, it was full of all kinds of dried small fish.

"Thank you, Chef. It's just a small token of my appreciation. And please take these two bottles to the salmon for me."

He took out a bottle of gold label and two bottles of silver label.

"Ah."

The white-feathered rooster left with the wine and the knife.

Ten minutes later, it sent "anger" back on time.

"Boss, I'm leaving."

Liu Zheng said.

"Get the hell out of here."

The cattle and horses swished their tails as if chasing away horseflies.

If something still happens even with this cosplay outfit, then even if it goes with him personally, it might not be able to save the kid, so he'd better pray for good luck.

After leaving the lounge, Liu Zheng took out the food from the lunchbox.

Theoretically, there shouldn't be any problems with this tolerance, but just to be on the safe side, he still put it in the Legendary delivery box to test it.

Thankfully, there were no problems.

He didn't even check the product's appearance before walking straight into the delivery lane.

When he came out, the skinny horse had already been so bored that he had defecated several times on the ground.

"Brother Ma, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Here's a little snack, freshly made. Please have a taste."

Liu Zheng quickly took out a handful of dried fish and held it to its mouth.

As for the horse manure on the ground, since it wasn't within the area covered by the restaurant's "three guarantees" policy, he pretended not to see it.

The skinny horse opened its mouth and licked up the dried fish, chewed it twice, and swallowed it.

It turned its head, gesturing for Liu Zheng to mount his horse.

"I'm sorry about that."

Liu Zheng didn't stand on ceremony and immediately climbed on top of him.

"唏伦~"

The skinny horse snorted and strolled forward.

The surrounding scenery was jerky and distorted, like a frame being cut, which made him very uncomfortable, so he simply closed his eyes.

"Hey~"

A few dozen seconds later, the skinny horse gave a short neigh, reminding him that they had arrived at their destination.

Liu Zheng opened his eyes; they had already arrived outside the archway.

"yue~"

He dismounted, but before he could speak, the skinny horse vomited all over the ground, filling the air with a strong smell of alcohol.

"Uh"

Liu Zheng shook his head helplessly.

No wonder the fast-forwarding was so strange this time; it turns out he was drunk.

The Metropolitan area is full of heavy drinkers, and most of them don't even have a high alcohol tolerance.

The skinny horse grinned sheepishly, a hint of embarrassment even showing on its face.

It pointed to the vomit on the ground and winked at Liu Zheng.

"I'll get someone to clean it up."

He sighed, took out his phone, and called Black Skull.

"Hey Blackie, would it be convenient for you to send a few fly-like cleaners over to do some cleaning?"

"Yes, it wasn't about collecting a body, and there was no explosion. It was just that a friend of mine drank too much and threw up."

"It's right outside the cemetery. Okay, thanks, Blackie."

Liu Zheng hung up the phone. "Okay, my friend from the Ministry of Health will send fly cleaners over to clean this up in a bit. They're professionals in this area."

He said to the skinny horse.

"唏伦~"

The skinny horse lifted its hoof and warmly put its arm around his shoulder as they walked into the cemetery.

"Have you been a horse for too long and now you want to be a human?"

The gravedigger looked at the skinny horse that was walking upright and asked.

The skinny horse sheepishly lowered its hooves and returned to a position where it was on all fours.

"Who told you to put it down? You ran a thousand kilometers upside down, and you kept running even though you were still drunk."

"That's what the gravedigger said."

"call"

The skinny horse, with a bitter face, stood upside down and ran into the Gobi Desert.

"Next time you secretly give it alcohol, you can run away with it."

The tomb keeper looked at Liu Zheng and said.

Liu Zheng kept his eyes down, not daring to utter a sound, feeling as if he had been caught red-handed by the parents for leading someone else's child astray.

"You still want the tomb with the nine dragons pulling the coffin?"

The gravedigger then got to the point.

"Yes, Your Excellency."

He nodded.

"Three requirements. First, you are not allowed to damage the main structure of the tomb. Second, you are not allowed to bring others down into the tomb. Third, any items obtained from tomb raiding must be inspected by me before you can take them away."

"That's what the gravedigger said."

"May I ask you a few questions, sir?"

Liu Zheng raised his hand and said.

"explain."

"If I bring other people in after I've entered the tomb, would that be considered a foul?"

he asked.

"It doesn't count as long as it's not your real body entering, but if you go too far, the cemetery will have a rejection reaction."

"That's what the gravedigger said."

Just like fish spas, a group of small fish nibbling at the dead skin on your feet is relaxing, but a group of piranhas biting your feet is a horror story.

If it were someone else, the cemetery caretaker wouldn't bother to remind them, after all, a cemetery, as a landmark symbolizing death and the end of a metropolis, is not to be trifled with.

Most people would be lucky to even survive the cemetery, let alone cause a rejection reaction.

Otherwise, why would the tomb keeper send Liu Zheng to rob the tomb? It's because the success rate is too low, and other tomb raiders are unwilling to come anymore.

But Liu Zheng is indeed a bit strange; even the tomb keeper isn't quite sure what he might do.

The mess of marks on his body and his bloodline—any one of them could cause a riot.

The gravedigger just wants to ride horses, raise cattle, and occasionally have some sarsaparilla drinks with beans and stewed salted meat. He doesn't want to work overtime.

"Understood. So, the Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin should definitely be allowed to be taken away, right?"

Liu Zheng asked again.

If you go through all that trouble to steal it, only to have the tomb keeper confiscate it, that would be terrible!

"You can take the dragon and the coffin with you, but the contents of the coffin are uncertain."

"That's what the gravedigger said."

He only knew the general layout of the tomb; he had neither the need nor the interest to know the more specific details.

"Okay. One last question, you asked me to prepare some 'meat,' how exactly should I use it?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"Use it the same way you would when you're delivering food, and use it the same way you would in a tomb. I once heard a saying from a ghost in Aurora: wherever there are people, there is a world of its own, and a tomb isn't just a place of deathly silence."

"That's what the gravedigger said."

"Um"

If he realizes something.

"can we start?"

"The tomb keeper asked."

"That's fine, Your Excellency."

Liu Zheng nodded.

"it is good."

The gravedigger whistled, and a ghoul covered in fungus and patches came galloping from afar.

Do you remember it?

"The tomb keeper asked."

"I remember that beast who had his eye on my head last time."

Liu Zheng said dismissively.

"I'm more interested in your tongue now."

"The ghoul spoke."

This time it was speaking the common language.

"What a coincidence! I also think your tongue is quite nice. It would be good to chop it off and make it into a cured tongue."

Liu Zheng sneered.

"Then I'll give you that chance."

As soon as the gravedigger spoke, Liu Zheng and the ghoul immediately shut their mouths and looked at him respectfully.

"You act as the tomb raider, and it acts as the tomb guardian. It will keep chasing you until you enter the tomb."

"That's what the gravedigger said."

"Can I fight back?"

Liu Zheng asked.

“Sure. If you kill him, I will reward you with the corpse of an angel.”

The gravedigger nodded and then spoke to the ghoul.

"Thank you for your kindness."

The ghoul's tone was filled with ecstatic joy.

If it can digest the angel's corpse, it can evolve to a higher level, and even become a species that surpasses ghouls.

Thinking of this, its eyes were filled with greed and murderous intent as it looked at Liu Zheng.

"Look, look, look at your mother. I'll gouge your eyes out and stuff them into Niu Daji's mouth later."

Liu Zheng, not to be outdone, pointed to the tentacle in his root.

"We can talk about it later. I'll count to three, two, one, and then I'll fire. You just follow the bullets."

The gravedigger ended their trash talk session and then pulled out his revolver.

"three!"

"two!"

"one!"

"boom!"

The brass bullets fired, trailing smoke, but neither Liu Zheng nor the ghoul looked at the bullets; instead, they immediately looked at each other.

The longsword, burning with fury, clashed with the venom-coated claws; neither retreated.

Black pupils and yellow-green eyes met, their killing intent so pure.

"Dark Gaze!"

The ghoul emitted a sharp sound like a baby crying, and its eyes turned pure black.

Liu Zheng was momentarily dazed. The surrounding scenery, along with the light, receded from him, leaving only a pair of eyes emitting a dim, fluorescent glow before his eyes.

He was like a pitiful worm being buried alive, fear crawling all over his body like ants.

"That's it?"

Liu Zheng suddenly sneered, then waved his tentacles and spun around like a top.

The Dragon Scale Blade unleashed an even more intense rage, dispelling all the surrounding darkness.

The ghoul retreated in a disheveled state, a shallow wound appearing on its wrist from which rose-colored blood slowly flowed.

"Why use this kind of magic? Don't you know I've dreamt of evil gods before?"

Liu Zheng stopped the top from spinning, a mocking smile on his face.

How can a mere, dark tomb compare to the unfathomable depths of the dark ocean?

"You must reach the cemetery within ten minutes. If you are more than ten minutes late, the cemetery's aura will begin to erode your body, and the rate of erosion will increase rapidly over time."

"The gravedigger suddenly said."

"Depend on!"

"Shhh!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Zheng's arrogant smile instantly turned into a bitter face, while the ghoul let out a laugh like an owl.

"Laugh, what the hell are you laughing at?"

He cut off a piece of the tentacle, poked it with the tip of his knife, put it in his mouth, chewed it, and then spat it out three times.

"Bloody mouth!"

Three blood arrows, each as thick as a thumb, were arranged in a triangular shape and shot towards the ghoul's head and back.

Sensing the fierce aura emanating from the blood arrow, the ghoul dared not confront it head-on and hopped away like a cat.

Liu Zheng didn't even look at the result of the skill's release, and immediately sprinted in the direction the bullet had flown.

He kept stomping his feet on the ground, and the powerful reaction force propelled him forward rapidly. Combined with the effect of the "citizen walking shoes", he ran hundreds of meters in just a few seconds.
