The effects of the medicine within the zombie were significantly affected at this point; its movements became sluggish, and its injuries could not heal quickly.

A glint of light flashed in Uncle Nine's eyes: "Now!"

"Hold it down!"

Lin Bei and Shi Shaojian acted simultaneously, pressing down on the zombie's shoulders from both sides.

He took out a handful of steel needles from his pocket, each one as long as a finger.

With a flick of his finger, steel needles flew out one after another, precisely piercing into various acupoints on the zombie's body.

The zombie let out a painful roar, struggling wildly within the Bagua Corpse-Trapping Array, its body surging with corpse energy.

"Almost there! Almost there!"

Uncle Nine shot in more than a hundred steel needles in a row, and the solar eclipse was about to reach its peak.

But to his surprise, he found that he still had three sticks left in his hand.

Just as Mama was about to step forward, Shi Shaojian shouted first, "Uncle-Master, I know where we've missed!"

He pointed to the zombie's crotch, and Uncle Nine looked embarrassed, glaring fiercely at Shi Shaojian.

As the last three needles were inserted, Nintendo shuddered violently and let out a deafening roar.

Immediately afterwards, the pale green liquid inside its body began to seep out from the wound, turning into wisps of green smoke that dissipated into the air.

Those steel needles sealed off its meridians and acupoints, forcing the medicinal power out of its body little by little.

Nintendo roared for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, until the last wisp of green smoke dissipated.

The fierce glint in its eyes vanished completely, and its body stiffened as it collapsed to the ground.

After the corpse energy dissipated, it turned into an ordinary corpse.

Ren Shichang had already been waiting outside the ancestral hall with his men. When he saw the zombie fall completely, he quickly led his men in to collect the body.

He glanced at Nintendo lying on the ground, then bowed to Uncle Nine with a complicated expression: "Thank you, Uncle Nine."

"It's my duty."

Uncle Nine waved his hand, "Find a place to give him a proper burial."

Lin Bei used several fire talismans to clean up the remaining medicine and the ground contaminated with corpse poison.

After dealing with the zombies, the group returned to the inn to rest for the night.

The next morning, Uncle Jiu called Lin Bei and Shi Shaojian to his room.

"That zombie mutated because it was injected by a foreigner. That foreigner is probably still doing research nearby."

"If we don't find him, we might end up with a second or third zombie like him."

"Uncle-Master is right."

Lin Bei nodded. "We need to find that laboratory."

He knew in his heart that the foreigner had probably been bitten and turned into a zombie!

No matter what, that laboratory must be destroyed!

Lin Bei thought for a moment, "Uncle-Master, let's go and gather some information first."

Uncle Nine nodded and then went to visit Ren Shichang.

The Ren family is the boss here, and their words carry more weight than theirs!

That afternoon, Ren Shichang went to a local tyrant in town to inquire about information.

They quickly obtained a clue: there was an abandoned courtyard a dozen miles west of the town, where foreigners had been frequently seen entering and leaving recently.

When everyone arrived at the courtyard, it was already close to dusk.

The courtyard was small, filled with various experimental equipment and medicine bottles, and the air was filled with a pungent smell.

Lin Bei pushed open the door and went inside. There were several corpses in the room that had just turned into zombies, obviously after being bitten by Nintendo.

Shi Shaojian drew his sword and stepped forward, killing them all with a single strike.

"That's it?" Shi Shaojian sheathed his sword and looked around.

The room was empty, though there was plenty of experimental equipment, but the foreigner was nowhere to be found.

Lin Bei knew that the foreigner in the original story was also bitten to death by Nintendo, but he didn't know where the body went.

Uncle Nine was silent for a moment: "Destroy this place first, we can't let it continue to harm people."

Lin Bei nodded, took out several fire talismans, and with a burst of magic power, flames rose up, engulfing all the instruments and medicines.

The three of them left the courtyard and stood at a distance watching the house burn in the flames.

"That way, even if that foreigner is still alive, he won't be able to cause any trouble." Lin Bei patted the dust off his hands.

Uncle Nine nodded: "Let's go back and pack our things. We'll set off for Maoshan early tomorrow morning."

After dealing with the courtyard, everyone returned to the inn.

At this moment, Mama sat in the lobby, his face no longer showing his usual nonchalant attitude, but rather a more serious expression.

He looked at Ah Hao and Ah Qiang standing beside him and said, "You two, you'll have to make a living on your own from now on."

Ah Qiang was taken aback: "Master... what... what do you mean?"

"As you all know, I can't teach you anything at all."

Mama waved her hand dismissively, "You've been following me all these years, but you haven't learned many skills, only a whole bunch of bad habits."

"Instead of continuing to drift along with me, you might as well go out and make your own way in the world."

Ah Hao, on the other hand, seemed indifferent. The reason he became Mama Di's apprentice in the first place was simply to earn a living.

I just had to leave suddenly, and I hadn't decided where to go yet.

Ah Qiang wiped away his tears: "Master..."

Just then, Ren Zhuzhu came downstairs, holding Bai Chen in her arms, and said with a smile, "Brother Qiang, do you want to come overseas with me to make your fortune?"

"Going to make a fortune overseas?"

Ah-Qiang hesitated for a moment, but Ah-Hao couldn't wait and blurted out, "I'll go!"

"I'll go too..." Ah-Qiang nodded when Ah-Hao agreed.

Mama glanced at the two of them, said nothing more, and just waved her hand: "If you go, do a good job and don't embarrass Maoshan."

The two followed Ren Zhuzhu away. Bai Chen stood on the table, gazing reluctantly at Ren Zhuzhu's departing figure.

"What are you doing? Starting to think about puberty at such a young age?"

Mama gently flicked Bai Chen's little head.

"Awoo..."

After yelling at him a few times, Bai Chenchong quickly ran into the room.

"Hey, you yelled twice and then ran away, how am I supposed to know what you meant!"

Mama stared speechlessly at Bai Chen's figure, then found a comfortable position and started picking at her toes.

Uncle Nine and his group happened to walk towards them and saw Ah Hao and Ah Qiang excitedly following Zhu Zhu out the door.

Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, Shi Shaojian turned to Mama and asked, "Uncle-Master, where are your two disciples going?"

"So happy..."

Without turning her head, Mama said, "They went overseas to seek their fortune with Ren Zhuzhu."

"Making money overseas... it's not that easy."

Everyone shook their heads and smiled upon hearing this.

Only a hint of mockery flashed in Lin Bei's eyes!

Gold mining?

If it were so easy to strike it rich overseas, most of those who went to Southeast Asia wouldn't have been unable to return.

Ren Zhuzhu is a woman who looks innocent, but she is very cunning.

Taking Ah-hao and Ah-qiang out like this, they're probably going to sell them into labor.

But he didn't say it out loud; some things are better left unsaid.

Besides, Ah Hao's character is what he brought upon himself by going overseas.

It's just a pity about Ah Qiang...
