I logged into Mr. Zombie

In the tomb.

The group of zombies knelt in worship.

Shen Yu was in a daze. If she saw an ordinary zombie, she would only be afraid, but what if this zombie really was Empress Dowager Cixi?

She glanced at the familiar face so close to her, emanating a chilling aura.

Although she was only the third princess of a prince's family, she had seen the powerful Empress Dowager before. The person who had died back then was now standing in front of her again with a different face.

“You look familiar.” The zombie queen casually placed the magic lamp beside her, as if she wasn’t afraid that she would steal it.

Shen Yu stammered, "Reporting to the Empress Dowager, I am Shen Yu, the third princess of the Fourth Prince's family."

"This thumb ring." The zombie empress dowager suddenly reached out and grabbed it.

The extremely long corpse claws, with their black, poisonous sheen, startled Shen Yu, who quickly closed her eyes. Then she felt a slight pain in her neck. When she opened her eyes again, she found that the ring had already been placed in the hands of the zombie empress dowager.

"That's my thumb ring!" Shen Yu exclaimed anxiously.

Thumb ring = Empress.

Without the thumb ring, no one recognized her.

The zombie empress dowager, however, didn't care. Instead, she asked, "What about the empress you mentioned before? Does the emperor want you to be empress?"

She bared her fangs and roared, clearly looking down on Shen Yu.

The selection of concubines is based on military achievements and official positions. Do you really think you can rule the world just because you have a pretty face? Since ancient times, beautiful women have often been a source of trouble. If she were still alive, she would never have given Shen Yu the slightest chance.

"Your Majesty?" Whether she was afraid or truly fearless, she shouted, "The Qing Dynasty has long since perished!"

After she finished speaking, she felt a strange sense of relief that she couldn't quite explain.

"Crack!"

The jade thumb ring was instantly crushed by the zombie empress dowager.

"My thumb ring!" Shen Yu exclaimed.

Her dream of becoming empress was shattered along with it.

Boom——!
Thunder roared.

A group of zombies in the tomb trembled in fear of the heavens.

Suddenly, lightning tore through the mountaintop, like a long spear piercing through the tomb, injecting electricity into it, and the entire tomb was instantly filled with a sea of ​​lightning.

However, the lightning bolts seemed to have eyes and automatically avoided Shen Yu.

The zombie in the tomb convulsed violently and turned to ashes in an instant.

Shen Yu slumped to the ground, watching the former imperial power survive the death and then watch them vanish into thin air.

Suddenly, the lightning bolts all receded and shot backwards into the sky.

Like spilled water turning back upside down, or a shattered mirror being pieced back together.

A figure fell from the sky.

Shen Yu just stared blankly.

If the dead can be resurrected as zombies, then it's probably acceptable for a wealthy country gentleman to be able to control lightning.

"Tan, Tan..." Her throat was dry, but she felt very relieved at that moment.

When he approached her, Shen Yu finally couldn't hold back and pounced on him, wrapping her arms around his broad back.

"Uuuuuu——"

Tan Wenjie asked in confusion: "?"

He just came to get the magic lamp.

At this moment, he was in the posture of a saint who was wholeheartedly subduing demons and monsters, and had no desire for beauty whatsoever, yet someone still came to throw himself into his arms.

"Miss Shen."

"I...I can never be the empress again, waaaaah—" she wailed.

Tan Wenjie: "..."

Luckily, I came over without changing my clothes, so I didn't care if they got dirty from crying.

"Thank you for saving me." Shen Yu looked up, her eyes brimming with tears. "You're right, there is no longer an empress, and I can no longer be an empress. Can I go back to the Tan residence to sweep the floors?"

"Put sweeping aside for now," Tan Wenjie said. "Move aside for a moment, I'm going to get the magic lamp."

"Huh?" Shen Yu turned her head and realized that it was the lamp that the zombie empress dowager had placed next to her earlier.

She suddenly realized that Tan Wenjie might not have come for her at all.

Her cheeks flushed red.

"You, you're supposed to be a rich man, how come you smell like rotten eggs?" Shen Yu awkwardly stepped back, insisting that he hadn't been switched at birth.

Tan Wenjie shook his head: "You haven't seen enough. I'll explain it to you properly another time."

The reasons are not convenient to explain, but timely cleaning is very necessary.

He looked at the magic lamp. Although it was just an inconspicuous little gadget, he was very interested in the fact that he had cultivated himself into the so-called god of the lamp and was trapped inside it, forced to obey the lamp keeper's orders.

Perhaps the other person has also heard the story of Aladdin's lamp.

Take them back and torture them severely.

The two left the tomb, which had been blasted apart by lightning.

Uncle Jiu and the others outside were dumbfounded.

“Brother Jie, you, you just now…” Qiu Sheng pointed to the sky, “You really split the mountain in two with a single bolt of lightning.”

Compared to the situation inside, the development outside was much simpler.

When Tan Wenjie arrived, his right hand flashed with lightning and pointed straight to the sky. Then dark clouds gathered, and a bolt of lightning struck the tomb. Then Tan Wenjie jumped into the tomb.

“Since you’ve already figured it out, I won’t hide it from you anymore.” Tan Wenjie nodded. “I am actually the Divine Firmament Thunder Commander and Marshal of the Thunder Department.”

"Haha, Brother Jie is really good at telling jokes." Qiu Sheng laughed out loud, but when he turned around, he found that his master was not laughing.

There was a thump in my heart.

He asked tentatively, "Brother Jie, you're not serious, are you?"

I can tolerate someone who's more handsome and richer than me, and I can tolerate someone with multiple wives, but to be a god at such a young age is simply intolerable.

"Of course it's fake."

"Whoosh~" X3
Nobody believes me when I tell the truth.

Uncle Nine nodded: "It seems that you have cultivated the Lightning Thunder Fist to an extremely high level, far surpassing my senior brother. Just now, you must have used thunder magic to induce celestial phenomena and use heavenly thunder to destroy the corpse."

He tried to analyze the situation from multiple angles to help Tan Wenjie find the principle behind using lightning magic to attract heavenly lightning, but there was one thing that didn't make sense: how did the heavenly lightning avoid Shen Yu?

"Maybe the Thunder God in the sky is very familiar with Brother Jie, so he helped to strike him?" Wen Cai said.

Uncle Nine clapped his hands: "That's right, Wencai!"

That makes perfect sense now.

Tan Wenjie has only been practicing for a few years, how could he possibly have become a deity?

“However, it must be very difficult,” Wencai asked again. “Brother Jie looks very energetic.”

Tan Wenjie could only say, "Actually, this method is very difficult... Ah, I'm out of energy."

Just as he was about to fall, he suddenly realized that Uncle Jiu was on his left, so he forced himself to stand up straight and then fell towards Shen Yu on his right.

Shen Yu subconsciously supported Tan Wenjie, who had slumped over, and let him fall heavily into her arms.

He was tall and strong, so Shen Yu could only hold him tightly with both hands and use her body to prevent him from falling over.

"Mr. Tan, are you alright?" Shen Yu's reddened eyes were brimming with tears again.

Shen Yu asked, "Ninth Uncle, was he seriously injured while saving me?"

The three people: "..." They actually believed it was so fake.

Uncle Nine: "He's probably just overexerted; he just needs some rest."

He actually used this method to pick up girls.

How enviable... Pah, despicable!
……

The next day, everyone had breakfast at a teahouse.

The merchants went back first; having their carriage stolen was no small matter, not to mention the burial goods that had been stolen from the tomb.

Tan Wenjie couldn't refuse Uncle Jiu's warm invitation and decided to make a detour to Renjia Town.

He could travel thousands of miles in an instant, and could travel all over the world in a single day by riding the clouds. So these distances were just like taking a stroll after a meal for him.

While Tan Wenjie, Qiu Sheng, and Wen Cai were having dinner together, Shen Yu had already begun seeking guidance from the expert Uncle Jiu.

Of all the people present, no matter how you look at it, Uncle Nine should be the one with the highest level of skill and the most reassuring presence.

Uncle Nine pondered: "...Palm reading is very complicated, and I only have a slight understanding of it, so my interpretation may be inaccurate."

"Yes, yes." Shen Yu nodded repeatedly. "Go ahead and tell me."

Uncle Nine frowned: "You are destined for wealth and honor. Your first half of life will be full of hardships, but you will be able to enjoy wealth and honor in the second half. Your destiny is exceptionally high. In fact, you will live a long life."

Shen Yu whispered a reminder: "Ninth Uncle, are you sure you're not mistaken? My first half of life was that of a princess from a prince's family, and the second half..."

She glanced at Tan Wenjie.

In the latter half of his life, he will probably do odd jobs and sweep the courtyard at the Tan family mansion.

"Pfft!" X2
Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai couldn't hold back when they heard their master being publicly humiliated.

"Hmm?" Uncle Nine's sharp gaze swept over them, and the two immediately shut up, lowered their heads, and obediently ate their food.

Tan Wenjie nodded, thinking to himself that he was indeed Uncle Jiu, who could see things so accurately. If Shen Yu really stayed in the Tan family, it would be like living with a god. It would not only be long life, but she might even become immortal.

If eating a bite of Tang Sanzang's flesh can grant immortality, then the life-extending effects on Tan Wenjie's descendants would certainly be quite remarkable.

"Brother Jie, what are you thinking about? Why are you laughing so lewdly?" Qiu Sheng asked, turning his head to the side.

As he posed the question, he quickly reached for a steamed bun on Tan Wenjie's plate with his chopsticks.

Tan Wenjie casually used his chopsticks to pry Qiu Sheng away, and then said, "How could someone as handsome as me be lewd? I'm all about charming and dashing laughter!"

Wencai also leaned over and asked, "Brother Jie, what kind of behavior is considered lewd?"

Tan Wenjie pointed to the short, fat man next to him: "Someone like him is lewd."

From the moment they started, the other person had been secretly observing Shen Yu.

With an appearance like Shen Yu, it would be very dangerous for him to be out alone without guards.

Many people were secretly watching Shen Yu along the way. If it weren't for the fact that Tan Wenjie and his group looked young and strong, and that Tan Wenjie was dressed and acted in an extraordinary manner, some fearless people might have come up to rob her of her virtue.

Wen Cai nodded thoughtfully, then smiled in imitation.

Qiu Sheng immediately added insult to injury: "Someone like you is just sleazy."

Wen Cai, indignant, pointed at Qiu Sheng: "Brother Jie, where is he?"

"It's sincere."

"He's sincere?" Then Wencai muttered, "So what if he's good-looking? What about his master?"

“Ahem, your master…” Tan Wenjie paused for a moment before speaking, “He’s old, how could he possibly like an 18-year-old girl? He’s devoted to the pursuit of the Dao.”

He accidentally raised his voice, attracting Uncle Nine's attention.

Uncle Nine walked over slowly without making a sound. Clearly, what Wen Cai was about to say would determine whether or not he would get a bump on his head, and how many bumps he would get.

"He doesn't even like 18-year-olds, isn't that just being an old eunuch..."

Wen Cai had just finished his spiel when his expression suddenly changed.

A sense of danger was drawing ever closer.

He seemed to realize something, "Brother Jie...no way?"

Wen Cai's eyes darted around, clearly seeking answers from behind him.

"Sigh, I'll burn paper money for you next year on this day." Tan Wenjie stood up and patted Wencai on the shoulder. "Good luck to you."

Wen Cai stiffly turned his head to look at the square face standing behind him, which had now become a long face.

"Master..."

"You're in trouble. Your master is the most petty of all." Qiu Sheng chuckled. "Why don't you let your master beat you up to vent your anger?"

Wen Cai was pleasantly surprised to find that Uncle Nine was actually smiling: "Master, you're not angry?"

Qiu Sheng shuddered: "Then you're even worse off. The last time Master showed that kind of smile, an entire village died."

Wencai: "Master, you should just give me a beating instead."

Shen Yu, who was staring blankly at his palm, noticed that someone else had come over and then saw that Uncle Jiu was flicking his two disciples' heads with both hands.

The sound was like striking a wooden fish.

Shen Yu asked, "Master Tan, what happened to them?"

"This is an intimate game between master and apprentice, let's not disturb them." Tan Wenjie grabbed Shen Yu's small hand and pulled her up.

"Oh." Shen Yu followed blankly, then looked down at her hand that was being held.

"Brother Jie, help!" x2
"They sound like they're calling for help," Shen Yu reminded her.

Tan Wenjie shook his head: "That's part of the game too."

What a heartwarming and harmonious scene! Just looking at it makes me feel happy.

Shen Yu couldn't help but cover her eyes: "There's such a game?"

"Of course, some games that are a bit dangerous must have safety words added. I'll teach you that later."

Shen Yu nodded vigorously.

She loves learning and improving so much.

I don't know how much more I need to learn if I want to live a good life in the Tan family in the future.

The servants of the Tan family discovered that Shen Yu, who claimed to be the empress, had returned, but the cleaning area had changed from next to the master's study to inside the study.

No one dared to tease Shen Yu; they only envied her.

If nothing unexpected happens, there will probably be a fifth wife soon.

Has anyone ever seen a cleaning maid come out of the master's room and still have to straighten her collar and buttons and wipe the drool off her clothes?

……

Once 30 days have passed, a new secret realm will appear.

Tan Wenjie glanced at it casually.

[Discovering a Hidden Gem: Twilight]

Such overseas business trips held absolutely no appeal for him.

The world level is too low, and the strength is too weak. Apart from a few pretty girls, it's not worth going there at all.

Whether it's riding a broomstick in the world of a little wizard or building a ship to become a pirate king, it's all more interesting than fighting with vampires and werewolves.

"No, that's not right either. It's actually quite fun to have a little bit of a fight with a vampire."

Erase the cross in your mind, leave it as pending, and go in for a visit when you have time. How can you go abroad to raid evil dens without yourself? Justice knows no borders.

However, he has more important things to do right now. The demonic energy of the eight demons and the problem of the demonic orbs have not yet been resolved. If he does not want to be directly classified as evil when he enters the new world next time, he must solve them first.

There is only one person who can help him and won't turn against him because of the distinction between good and evil.
