Zombie Life Begins in Hongxi Village

Lin Yi quickly put the zombie into the hanging coffin cave.

Almost the instant the zombie disappeared, the door was pushed open from the outside.

A pretty young girl dressed in an apricot-colored floral dress strode in, carrying a paper fan in her hand and a peach wood sword slung across her back.

She was probably in her early twenties, with delicate features and a signature mole on the corner of her mouth that symbolized good fortune for her husband. What was most striking were her long, straight legs, which gave her a clean and efficient stride.

Lin Yi's pupils suddenly contracted.

He knew those legs all too well—

In the movie "My Date with a Vampire," Ma Xiaoling's signature look is incredibly long and fair-skinned. Paired with ankle boots, she walks with a cool and agile gait.

No! Ma Xiaoling wasn't even born at this point in time.

It's Madonna!

The 39th generation descendant of the Ma family, the exorcist dragon clan, is the strongest Ma family exorcist besides Ma Ling'er, and a formidable figure who can fight Jiang Chen, who is in a daze, to a standstill.

Her magical aura was vast and sacred, faintly carrying the pressure of a divine dragon, making her even stronger than Yu Ming Thirteen.

If she possessed a secret technique similar to the Maoshan spirit summoning ritual, and could wield the power of the Ma family's divine dragon, then she would practically be a humanoid female tyrant—

No wonder he was able to fight Jiang Chen for so long in the original series. After all, even if Jiang Chen held back, his strength was still at least a million tons.

No wonder Xu Fu fled to Japan. He had a blood feud with the Ma family. If he were discovered by the Ma family's descendants, he would definitely be beaten to a pulp.

The Ma family, the exorcist dragon clan, is terrifying beyond measure.

However, this girl didn't seem to realize how terrifying it was that she could fight Jiang Chen—

If Lin Yi hadn't evolved, she really wouldn't be a match for her.

But now... he can even take on the Ma family's dragon without any problem, let alone this little girl.

How did she end up here?

There is neither a thousand-year-old zombie king nor an ancient demon in Gobi County; the most ferocious thing within a radius of several hundred miles is Lin Yi himself.

Madana chased Jiang Chen across most of China, so how did she suddenly end up in such a remote and impoverished place?

Is this yet another twist of fate?

He got Michelle pregnant with his child, and then arranged for Madonna to meet him.

Is using a child not enough? Do you also want to use a woman to keep him tied down?

If fate were a benevolent force, Lin Yi would be laughing in her sleep, but unfortunately, fate in "My Date with a Vampire" is not a good thing.

He suspected that fate had brought Madonna here to pit him against Jiang Chen—

If he gets entangled with Madonna, it's equivalent to automatically standing on the opposite side of Jiang Chen!

Madana glanced around and found that apart from a pool of blood that hadn't yet congealed on the floor, the room was completely empty, without even a trace of a zombie.

Her gaze fell on Lin Yi, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes—

The person was standing right in front of me, yet I couldn't sense any magical fluctuations. Even the life force a living person should have was barely there, as if I were looking at a figure through frosted glass.

But the aura of death in the room had indeed disappeared, and he was the only one present.

"The corpse aura is gone? Where are the zombies? Did you deal with them?"

She looked Lin Yi up and down, her gaze lingering on Lin Yi's face for a moment, then suddenly tilted her head slightly, a hint of suspicion in her eyes, "You seem to know me?"

"Uh, I don't know it." Lin Yi shook her head, trying to make her expression look natural. "If you want to ask about that zombie, I did take care of it."

"No, you definitely know me. The way you're looking at me is wrong—it's definitely not the way you look at someone you're meeting for the first time."

Madana narrowed her eyes slightly, her tone certain, "It's as if you've known me for a long time, and were caught off guard by my sudden appearance here."

"Such sharp eyes?"

Lin Yi was silent for a moment, then spread her hands in a defiant manner: "I really haven't seen you before. If you're referring to the time I peeked at your legs, I apologize."

Madonna's cheeks suddenly burned.

She glanced down at her legs instinctively, then abruptly looked up and glared at him fiercely: "You...you scoundrel!"

Lin Yi's gaze was involuntarily drifting downwards again, but after being glared at, she quickly turned her head away sheepishly.

"Uh, I'm not watching anymore, I'm not watching anymore."

He cursed inwardly—what's wrong with me? Why am I so weak-willed today?

Although Madana is indeed outstanding in appearance, he is not a naive young man who has never seen a beautiful woman before. He has Ren Tingting and Michelle at home, both of whom are top-notch beauties.

Why do I feel like I'm bewitched whenever I see Madonna? My eyes keep wandering to places I shouldn't be looking.

It must be that damned Fate playing tricks on us.

"Hmph, not a word of truth comes out of your mouth." Madana snorted lightly, surprisingly not pressing the matter further.

She herself found it strange—under normal circumstances, if a man dared to blatantly peep at her and admit it to her face, she would have already used the peach wood sword to strike him down.

But the man in front of her, though his words and actions were frivolous, did not offend her. Instead, she felt a sense of relaxation that was hard to explain, as if she were facing a friend she had known for a long time.

"My name is Madana, the 39th generation descendant of the Ma family, the exorcist dragon clan. And you?"

Lin Yi thought to herself that it was indeed her, but she kept a straight face and cupped her hands in greeting: "My name is Lin Yi, the second-generation leader of the Yun County Security Corps."

"Security Corps? Is there such a sect?" Madana frowned in confusion, then realized what he meant and rolled her eyes at him.

"So you were a warlord after all. As a Taoist practitioner, aren't you afraid of karmic entanglements?"

Lin Yi shook her head and began to talk nonsense with a straight face:

"Who told you I practice Taoism? I practice Buddhism, specifically Tantric Buddhism. I am the 19th generation successor of the Gelug school of Tantric Buddhism."

Strictly speaking, he wasn't lying—Longci was the 20th generation successor of the Gelug school of Tibetan Buddhism, and he was Longci's master, making him the 19th generation successor.

"Nineteenth generation? Then you're of a very high generation. Wait a minute, how could you be so young if you're nineteenth generation..."

"Just consider me immortal." Lin Yi waved her hand, turned and walked towards the door, her back conveying a resolute unwillingness to talk any further. "Alright, we've met, I should go."

"Um, Lin Yi,"

Madonna called out to him from behind, her tone carrying a hint of expectation she herself didn't realize, "You're a successor of Tantric Buddhism, could you do me a favor?"

"No." Lin Yi waved her hand without stopping, her figure disappearing at the end of the corridor.

Madana stood there, watching his back as he walked away without looking back, and subconsciously stomped her foot.

She herself was startled by the stomping of her foot—a gesture she used to make when she was a teenager and acting spoiled. Since taking over the Ma family's responsibilities, she had never acted spoiled towards anyone again.

She looked down at her legs, then touched her face, and suddenly a thought she had never had before popped into her head.

"Am I not good-looking?"

……

Outside the hotel.

"Drive, we'll head back to Yun County tonight." Lin Yi opened the car door and sat in the back seat, her face immediately darkening.

Wang Daniu glanced in the rearview mirror, started the car without saying a word, and sped out of Gobi County.

If he was just guessing in the hotel room, Madonna's reaction was practically confirmation.

He was practically acting like a hooligan to his face, but Madana not only didn't draw her sword to kill him, she also took the initiative to introduce herself and her background, and her final stomp was clearly a coquettish gesture.

That woman is a descendant of the Ma family of the Exorcist Dragon Clan, a woman who dares to confront even Jiang Chen head-on. How could she be so lenient towards a man she has just met?

Lin Yi leaned back in her seat, watching the night rushing past the window, her mind racing through every possibility.

He has an almost obsessive rationality when it comes to romantic relationships.

I had two relationships before I time-traveled.

During my senior year of college, he broke up with me because he said he wanted to take a break from work to take the civil service exam.

After one job, he broke up with her because of the dowry of 688,000 yuan plus a 150-square-meter house in the provincial capital and a 200,000 yuan car.

After coming into this world, his desire for Ren Tingting and Michelle exceeded his love for them.

He didn't believe he possessed the charm to make a Ma family celestial master fall in love at first sight.

Hilarious, he kept his social media privacy settings on the whole time!

Not to mention the scent of hormones, not even a trace of the men's cologne that Michelin sprayed on him could be detected.

Madonna saw him no differently than someone in a movie or a wax figure; you can't fall in love at first sight with a wax figure, can you?

As Lu Xun once said, there is no such thing as love at first sight; it is merely lust at first sight.

The prerequisite for lust at first sight is the ability to smell hormones, which in the supernatural world means being able to sense the other person's aura—but he blocked all of that!

Therefore, Lin Yi concluded that there was a trap.

……

An hour later, the information flow from the blue teardrop flooded into consciousness.
