Twin female zombies come to the door: My lord, please have mercy!

Three days later, at noon.

Taiping Old Street enjoyed unusually good weather.

Sunlight poured down on the bluestone slabs, making the road surface slightly hot.

The Lin family's funeral parlor was tightly shut.

A red and white construction warning line was set up outside the gate, and several small excavators were parked on the open ground. The construction team from Tianzhu Design Institute had already entered the site.

Lin Ye rented a spacious guesthouse suite at the end of the old street as a temporary place to stay during the renovation of the funeral parlor.

The air conditioning was on in the guesthouse's living room.

Lin Ye leaned back on the fabric sofa, holding a feng shui book in his hand.

Just then, a cup of warm ginseng tea was handed to him.

Leng Yue was wearing a close-fitting dark green silk slip dress, the hem of which barely covered the top of her thighs.

She had just finished bathing, her long, silvery-white hair, still damp with the steam of the hot water, cascaded casually over her snow-white back.

She walked to Lin Ye's side and sat down.

The two were very close, and the scent of Leng Yue, a mixture of the fresh fragrance of shower gel and the cool fragrance of red spider lilies, went straight into Lin Ye's breathing.

She turned slightly to the side, her fair and delicate arm reaching across Lin Ye's chest to reach for the open feng shui book on the coffee table.

This movement caused her upper body to lean completely over Lin Ye's chest.

The neckline of the slip dress is already loose.

Lin Ye only needed to lower his gaze slightly to clearly see the breathtaking snowy scenery.

The deep ravines were faintly visible in the shadows.

Two incredibly soft mounds trembled gently with her breath, brushing against Lin Ye's thin cotton T-shirt.

The cool, smooth touch of her skin, mixed with her warm, rapid breathing, created a thick web of desire within a small space.

Lin Ye's Adam's apple bobbed heavily as he put down the book in his hand.

He reached out his large hand and wrapped it around that slender waist that had no excess fat.

Lin Ye's palm pressed against the silky fabric, feeling the amazing elasticity of the muscles beneath.

Leng Yue let out a low, soft groan, obediently relaxing her body and leaning most of her weight against Lin Ye's chest.

She raised her head, and a layer of moist spring-like affection welled up in her deep red eyes.

Her fingertips gently traced Lin Ye's resolute jawline, caressing it slowly with a slightly cool touch.

"My lord."

Her red lips parted slightly, her breath was fragrant, and her voice was so hoarse it could drip water.

"These past few days have been filled with travel, and your yang energy has been greatly depleted. I will now help you... to properly regulate your internal energy."

She slightly raised her slender swan neck, closed her eyes, and brought her soft, cool red lips close to Lin Ye's lips.

The distance between them was only a millimeter, yet the temperature of their intertwined breaths continued to rise.

"Bang bang bang!"

A deafening banging on the door violently shattered the idyllic atmosphere in the living room.

Lin Ye's face darkened. He suppressed the rising fire in his lower abdomen and snapped at the door, "The door's unlocked! Get in!"

The door was pushed open.

Fatty Wang rushed into the living room, his head covered in sweat.

He was carrying two boxes of braised chicken rice that he had just bought from the street corner.

Following behind the fat man was a young girl wearing modern ripped jeans and a black cropped T-shirt.

The girl was in her early twenties and had a head full of dirty braids.

She wore a large string of extravagantly designed silver Miao ethnic necklaces around her neck.

Several red and black woven ropes were wrapped around her wrists and ankles, and the silver ornaments on her body made a crisp "jingling" sound when she walked.

The girl's eyes were red-rimmed, and two lines of undried tears hung on her fair cheeks. She was clutching a dark, flat object tightly in her hand.

As soon as she entered the door, she pointed at the back of Fatty Wang's head and burst into loud sobs.

"That fat bastard! He sat on my little black dog and killed it!"

"I don't care, you have to pay me back today! If you don't, I'm not leaving!"

The girl's voice was clear and bright, with a strong Miao accent from southwestern China.

Lin Yesong released his hand from Leng Yue's waist and rubbed his throbbing temples.

He stood up and looked at the strangely dressed Miao girl.

"Fatty, who's this? You went out to buy food, how did you end up kidnapping someone?"

Fatty Wang placed the takeout box on the coffee table, his face contorted in a bitter expression, slapping his thigh in frustration.

She said her name was Ashyao Yougu.

"But Yezi, this really isn't my fault! I went to the street corner to buy braised chicken, and while I was queuing, this girl was squatting on the curb playing on her phone. I took a step back, slipped, and fell on my bottom."

"Who knew she was letting a black beetle the size of a thumb walk on the ground! And who else would be so kind as to walk a beetle?"

The fat man pointed at the dark, mushy wreckage in the girl's hand, tears welling up in his eyes.

"I just stepped on a bug, and she wouldn't let go of my belt, saying it was her natal Gu that she had raised for three years! She immediately asked me for 500,000! I don't have that much money, so I had to bring it back to you for help."

As Wang Pangzi spoke, he couldn't help but twist his massive waist, trying to recreate the physical force points at that moment.

"Yoko, you don't know, the sound was so crisp, like chewing roasted soybeans! I thought someone was throwing walnuts on the street."

The fat man gestured to his two-hundred-pound weight, spreading his hands with a wronged expression.

"How was I supposed to know that Gu worms these days are so pampered? That thing called the Mysterious Gold Iron Wire Gu, shouldn't it be as hard as iron and impervious to swords and spears?"

"Before I even put my butt in any effort, it went straight to see Great-Grandma. What does that mean? It means the food in our Great Xia Kingdom is good! My muscles are a natural weapon against gravity!"

Hearing this from the side, Ayougu almost burst into tears again, pointing at the fat man and trembling as she shouted:

"That's not muscle! That's fat, it's high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and high blood sugar! My little black dog practices defensive magic; it's designed to defend against swords, lightning, and fire. It never imagined someone would use such a thick layer of fat to create a carpet-like suffocation effect!"

Lin Ye listened from the side, his lips twitching. Looking at the worm's remains, which had almost turned into a black sheet of paper, he silently mourned for it for three seconds.

"Being crushed to death by a fat man's butt is a disgrace in the world of Gu. I bet even this insect wouldn't have the face to claim its reincarnation ticket in the underworld."

……

Five minutes later, after a brief exchange of words...

Lin Ye learned that the girl's name was Ayougu, and that she was a descendant of the Miao Gu lineage deep in the Ten Thousand Mountains.

This time, he sneaked out of the mountains to see the world in the big city, but he not only got lost, but also spent all his money.

Having finally found a curb to rest, and just as I released my beloved natal Gu worm to get some fresh air, I was crushed into a two-dimensional flat image by a mountain of flesh falling from the sky.

"My Xuanjin Iron Wire Gu! I fed it to it every day with more than a dozen kinds of poisonous herbs!"

Ayougu stomped her feet in anger, her silver ornaments jingling.

"Not a penny less than 500,000! You city folks won't get away with bullying me!"

Leng Yue straightened the neckline of her nightgown and sat gracefully on the sofa.

Her deep red eyes swept coldly over Ayougu.

A trace of the drought demon's oppressive aura was inadvertently revealed.

Ayougu has been dealing with poisonous insects for many years and has an extremely keen sense of danger.

Feeling the chilling aura, she shivered and her crying stopped abruptly.

She looked at Leng Yue in horror, and her feet involuntarily took two steps back.

"So...so heavy with the aura of death..."

Ayougu swallowed hard and muttered to himself.

Just as the atmosphere reached a stalemate, the bedroom door was pushed open.

Froststar came out carrying half a watermelon rind that had been completely eaten clean.

The little girl rubbed her sleepy heterochromatic eyes and sniffed the air twice.

Her gaze instantly locked onto the shriveled black worm that Ayougu was holding in his hand.

Froststar dropped the watermelon rind, ran barefoot over, and examined Ayougu's hand closely.

"Wow!"

Froststar's blue and red eyes shone brightly.

A naive smile spread across his lips, revealing two sharp little tiger teeth.

"This dark-colored thing smells amazing! It smells like spicy snacks!"

She tilted her head back, looked at the terrified Ayougu, and licked her lips with the tip of her pink tongue.

"Sister, do you still want this bug? If not, can Froststar eat it?"

Looking at the little girl in the Pikachu T-shirt in front of her, Ayougu felt a primal, devouring desire that was far more terrifying than that of the woman in black.

The Netherworld Corpse King's suppression of the bloodline of low-level Gu worms caused Ayougu's legs to buckle, and she collapsed to the ground.

"Who...who are you people?!"

Looking at the remains of the insect in her hand, and then at Froststar who was closing in, Ayougu burst into tears again.

Lin Ye grabbed Shuangxing by the back of her collar and pulled her back to his side.

"You're putting all sorts of dirty things in your mouth. Go back and rinse your mouth."

He looked at the Miao girl sitting on the ground, crying her heart out, took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, took a deep drag, and exhaled a faint smoke ring.

"Alright, stop howling. The bug got stepped on and died. I'll pay for it. I'll transfer 500,000 to you."

Lin Ye took out his phone and brought up the transfer interface.

Upon hearing that there was money to compensate, Ayougu immediately stopped crying and hurriedly pulled out a broken, old, domestically made mobile phone with a cracked screen.

"drop!"

A notification sound indicating successful payment was heard.

When Ayougu saw the extra 500,000 in her account, her eyes immediately turned into crescent shapes.

"At least you're being reasonable!"

She patted her bottom, stood up, and put the dead Gu worms into a small cloth bag to store them.

"We're even now, goodbye!"

As she turned to leave, her stomach rumbled loudly.

Ayougu awkwardly covered her stomach, her face slightly flushed.

She had run away from the mountains and had been starving for two whole days. She had been so focused on asking for money that she was practically starving.

Her gaze involuntarily drifted to the coffee table, to the two boxes of braised chicken rice that exuded a rich aroma of sauce.

Lin Ye saw through her embarrassment and a smile appeared on his lips.

"Hungry? Sit down and eat with us, it's just a matter of having an extra pair of chopsticks."

Ayougu hesitated for two seconds, but the temptation of the food ultimately overcame her fear of the zombies.

She carefully moved to the coffee table, picked up a box of rice, and wolfed it down.

Looking at this Miao girl who ate with absolutely no manners, Lin Ye secretly made a plan.

The crisis of the Yinshan Sect has come to a temporary end, and the funeral parlor is about to be renovated.

Judging from what just happened, although this girl may have been trying to extort money, her identity is genuine, and her demeanor is definitely from the Miao region.

In that case, she must be proficient in poisons and witchcraft.

If we could keep her around as a free toxicology consultant, occasionally helping to handle minor cases involving evil spirits and poisons, then spending 500,000 would definitely be worthwhile.
