"Spare them, please don't harm my sons... they didn't mean to..." The old lady fell to the ground, using her last bit of strength to grab onto one of Du Si Lin's legs, begging pitifully.
Du Sulin couldn't kick the old granny away with one foot and still had to protect her from being hurt by zombies. Therefore, when fighting against three ferocious zombies, he was tied up and could only make some simple passive defenses.
Suddenly, Little Zombie Beibei let out a sharp cry and then with a burst of speed, she rushed towards Duslin. At the same time, the two adult zombies also made the same movement as Little Beibei, and their speed was significantly faster than hers.
"Ah," Du Sulin sighed in his heart and quickly retreated while pulling the old lady's clothes. Finally, the two of them backed out of the door.
"Bang!" The door was heavily closed by Du Sulin and a seal was casually drawn on the door.
Three zombies heavily pounded on the door inside the room, but when it was transmitted to the outside world, only ripples could be seen on the seal set by Du Sulin.
"Don't hurt them, they don't want to either..." The old lady begged repeatedly, Du Sulin looked at this tear-stained face, and his heart softened for a moment.
"They are no longer your loved ones!" Du Sulin bowed his head, grasped the old lady's arms with both hands and said in a low voice; "Now they are just three corpses, if you really care about them, you shouldn't stop me. Living like this, their spirits won't be at peace either!"
Perhaps Du Si Lin's words had touched the old lady's heart, and her eyes, which were originally somewhat dull, finally had a hint of brightness. But she just looked at Du Si Lin's eyes without speaking.
This pause of time was only a few minutes, but for the old grandma who was immersed in memories and hesitation, it was like reliving half her life.
From the birth of her son, to his growth, marriage, and the birth of Xiaobei... those scenes of happiness replayed in her mind. Du Siling didn't speak again, she knew that with as much past happiness, there would be just as much pain, and different people had different ways of coping, some escaped, while others faced it head-on.
Finally, the old lady loosened her grip on Du Sulin's hands, and a resolute glint appeared in her eyes. Although she still didn't speak, Du Sulin already understood the choice she had made. She didn't hesitate anymore, raised her hand to pull the door open, and rushed inside.
As soon as I stepped in, a pungent smell hit me right in the face.
At the scene before him, Du Sulin was shocked. Little Beibei's body had already weakly lain on the ground, while the female zombie was sucking the male zombie's blood.
When Du Sulin came in, the female zombie didn't stop what she was doing, but shifted more than half of her attention to Du Sulin, and the speed at which she sucked blood obviously accelerated a lot.
Du Sulin didn't stop anything, she just stood still and watched quietly. There's a saying that quantitative change will eventually lead to qualitative change, she wanted to see if after absorbing the blood of two zombies, this female zombie could evolve into a higher-level zombie.
For zombies, Du Sulin didn't have much experience in the past. What she knows now is what she saw in her ancestors' books and what she encountered before. The ones she met were obviously mostly high-level zombies with their own thinking. They had special functions that ordinary people didn't have, and they were immortal. Apart from these differences, they were no different from normal people. Low-level zombies were different, however. They didn't have thoughts, didn't know hunger or fullness, and eating was just an instinct for them.
Douslin's appearance clearly gave the female zombie a sense of crisis, and after quickly resolving the male zombie, she casually discarded the male zombie's corpse on the ground. A pair of eyes stared at Douslin, with an empty yet slightly yearning gaze, like a leopard staring at its prey in the vast grasslands.
Douslin was also staring at the female zombie, thinking and looking at this appearance, as if the zombie in front of her had not undergone any qualitative change.
The female zombie didn't have the same high level of intelligence as Du Shilin, she couldn't see that Du Shilin was deep in thought, in her eyes, he had simply frozen in place. Therefore, she felt it was an opportunity not to be missed, and so she pounced towards Du Shilin, fast like a bolt of lightning, in the blink of an eye, she arrived right in front of him.
Unfortunately, the one in front of her was not someone else, but Du Sulin. She was fast, but Du Sulin was even faster. Even though she was thinking and didn't fully focus on the female zombie, she could still subconsciously dodge to the left and avoid the zombie's attack. The next second was also the moment for her counterattack.
She only saw her right foot fiercely kick out, and then she rushed towards the female zombie, without using any spiritual power, but instead using the Thai boxing she had learned before. The characteristic of Thai boxing is that every move and every style is decisive and fierce, without any unnecessary fancy moves.
If there was a third person present at this moment, they would definitely be shocked. Because at this moment, Du Sulin is like a human beast that has been dormant for a long time, every punch he throws out is full of explosive power, the female zombie is completely unable to fight back, and even loses the ability to defend herself passively. She can only retreat, instinctively using both hands to block her chest, trying to avoid several fatal blows.
Until the end, Du Sulin reached out and pinched the female zombie's neck. Her eyes still showed a thoughtful light, compared to before, the female zombie was much stronger, but her wisdom seemed to have decreased, what was the reason?
Douslin had a question in her mind. She believed that her previous judgment was correct, and the male zombie and Beibei were both controlled by the female zombie in front of them, but looking at the current situation, it seemed that things weren't quite that simple.
At this moment, the female zombie was obviously unable to answer her own doubts. Without making her suffer more, Du Sulin solved her in a simple yet slightly brutal way, twisting her neck.
Watching her gradually turn into ashes, Du Siling was a little distracted. If she died, perhaps nothing could be left behind. Only this moment of light, as the ending of her life.
The door opened, and the sunlight was not bright but gentle. Du Sulin took a deep breath and suppressed the melancholy in his heart.
"They......?" The old lady saw the door open and went forward, took a glance at the dim room behind Du Si Lin, empty and deserted, only broken chains and shattered wallpaper remained.
"What are your plans from now on?" Du Siling didn't answer the old lady's words, but instead changed the subject. The old lady knew the answer when she made her choice, and answering again now would only bring up painful memories once more.
"Go home." The old lady lowered her head and went home. No more son, no more daughter-in-law, no more lovely grandson. What home did she still have?
This is another heavy topic, but Du Sulin doesn't know how to arrange the old man in front of him. Suddenly, a smile with cunning and a pair of crescent-shaped eyes appeared in his mind. Qing Zhu, if Qing Zhu were here, he would definitely have a good way to handle it.
She called Fang Feng and briefly told him about the situation, after which Jing Jie hurried over.
"I'll take care of it!" Unexpectedly, Jing Jie patted his chest and took on the task.
"Hmm." Du Sulin didn't ask more questions and just nodded.
It's worth noting that Jing Jie herself, apart from being a colorful and vibrant person, the family she established is not inferior to Xiao Qing Zhu's in any way. In daily life, she likes to joke around with people and doesn't do things as rigidly and methodically as Xiao Qing Zhu does. But does this mean she's worse than Xiao Qing Zhu? Of course not.
Jing Jie's abilities are no worse than anyone else's, it's just that most of the time she'd rather be a laid-back boss, carefree.
It's just a matter of time. When something really happens, her abilities start to show up.
Even Du Sulin was secretly amazed at Jing Jie's ability to arrange things. From making phone calls to giving orders, to having someone come and pick up the old lady, it all took less than an hour.
A problem that had been plaguing Douslin was easily solved by Jingji.
"What's going on? Rushing out in the middle of the night, now you know to make a phone call?" Looking at his subordinates' organized actions, Jing Ji didn't bother to intervene anymore and walked over to Du Si Lin who was still standing by, nudging her with his elbow and teasingly said.
Du Sulin shrugged and asked with a helpless expression: "Is Fengfeng better now?"
Jing Jie nodded, with a smile at the corner of her mouth. "She's fine." As she spoke, there was still a hint of resentment in her voice, as if Feng had taken advantage of Jing Jie when she was weak. "Going home?" Jing Jie asked, her arms crossed over her chest, looking at Du Si Lin.
Du Sulin nodded and said only one sentence: "Back!"
Xiao Qingzhu's departure was indeed very distressing for Du Siling. But she knew that there was no time to be sad or melancholic now. Because as Du Siling, she was also the successor of the Du family, Taiguang. The people of the Du family were born to bear the responsibility of the Yin Yang Tian Shi. She couldn't let the responsibility of the Du family fall on her generation.
Today's old lady is just one of the ones she knows, and in places she doesn't know, there are many, many more people suffering from such pain. And all this comes from Peng Haotian.
What does he really want to do? Cultivating such a large army of zombies, without humanity, without wisdom, wouldn't they want to dominate the world? Such an idea suddenly emerged in Du Sulin's mind. She herself was stunned for a moment, then pushed away this not-so-reliable conjecture. If Peng Haotian wanted to dominate the world, he would have done so long ago, why wait until now?
There must be some reason why Peng Haotian has waited until now...
