Chapter 99 No corpse in the tomb
  zombie.

This word crossed my mind, and I immediately recalled the green-haired zombie I saw when I followed Boss Hu and a group of people to visit the grave.

The green zombie has obviously been dead for a long time, but it can act according to its own instincts and kill people invisible.

And according to what I later found out, this green zombie ranks third to last among the eight levels of zombies: purple zombie, white zombie, green zombie, hairy zombie, flying zombie, wandering zombie, lying zombie, and non-bone zombie. , in fact, in the eyes of knowledgeable people, it is not very powerful.

But am I qualified to despise zombies?

I can't, let alone green zombies, even the lowest level purple zombies, I have to take it seriously.

Because for someone like me, who is not very knowledgeable or ordinary, one purple zombie can kill many people!

So is the grandma you saw in the field a zombie?

What level of zombies are they?
  I was a little nervous for a while, but the next day, I came to Pingyang County again due to time constraints. When school was over, I squatted down at the entrance of the junior high school to Bai Zhaodi.

Bai Zhaodi was still wearing the clothes I bought for her. She seemed to want to drag Bai Yaozu home, but she was shaken off several times and ran away.

Bai Zhaodi originally wanted to chase her, but I stopped her first:
  "Zhaodi!"

When Bai Zhaodi saw me, the tears that were on her face turned into waves of joy:
  "Sister! Why are you here again! No, no, I didn't mean that you can't come. I mean, I thought it would take you a long time to find me."

I rubbed her head and said straight to the point:

"I came to see you, and I wanted to ask you to do something for me."

"Do you have any of your grandma's personal belongings? It doesn't have to be personal belongings. It can also be things she often touched in front of her. I can use them."

As for what it is used for, I won’t go into details, and I don’t expect Zhaodi, a smart kid, to ask in detail.

Zhaodi thought for a while and took me back to the butcher shop. From the attic junk pile on the top floor, she took out a kerchief that had been washed until it turned white and handed it to me:
  "Sister, this is the headscarf that grandma wore before she was alive. Many years ago, grandma had headaches and couldn't blow dry, so she often wore a headscarf. It should be very close to her body."

I took the headscarf, but my eyes unconsciously looked towards the only 'bed' in the attic.

It was said to be a bed, but in fact there was no bed at all, just a rotten wooden board placed on top of a pile of debris.

The wooden board is covered with straw, and then there are 'sheets' sewn from various scraps of cloth. The quilt is a slightly intact military coat.

There was a long rip in the military coat, which must have been the reason why it was abandoned.

My throat moved:

"Zhaodi, do you live here?"

This butcher shop has two and a half floors. On the first floor is the shop in the front and the kitchen in the back.

There are two rooms in front and back. You don't need to think about it to know that it is one room for the uncle, his wife and Bai Yaozu.

So where can Zhaodi, who is disliked by the whole family, live?
  It can only be the attic.

Bai Zhaodi looked a little embarrassed and her face was a little red. Perhaps she saw my distress, so she quickly opened the quilt and said:

"Sister, don't be sad. Although this cloth looks shabby, it is very warm. I saved it little by little!"

"I also laid plastic bags on the wooden board to keep out the cold and moisture, and the military coat is also very warm. The aunt next door gave me a lot of cotton, and I stuffed a lot of it myself. There was no air leakage at all when I slept at night. "

I reached out and touched the military coat. Indeed, as Bai Zhaodi said, this military coat was indeed much heavier than ordinary military coats, and there were traces of sewing on the inside, which meant that a lot of stuff was obviously stuffed.

It's almost the same as a quilt.

But can this hide the fact that this is not a quilt?

cannot! I took a deep breath and asked:
  "Your parents just let you stay in an attic with no windows. Do they still let you sleep in a place like this?"

"Are you willing too!?"

Bai Zhaodi was stunned for a moment, and then asked a question that I couldn't even respond to:

"if not?"

"They are my parents, and they like my brother very much. I don't want to, and no one cares."

"I also want to sleep in a warm quilt and a big bed, but I don't have one, and I can't have one."

"The meat at home can only be eaten by Yaozu. When the aunt next door gave me a piece of green dumpling when I was hungry, Yaozu would knock it down and trample it to pieces. He said he didn't have it and I couldn't eat it either."

"The clothes you bought for me have been painted over by Yao Zu in just two or three days."

Zhaodi stretched out her hand to show the long pen marks on her body that I always thought were accidentally touched.

Her voice was trembling, and this girl seemed to like to lower her head to cover her tears:
  "Sister, I don't want to, but I can only live like this."

"The most I can do is to fill the military coat with cotton. In this way, when they see me wearing the military coat, they will feel at ease and will not think that they have given me such a good thing to lose money, so they will come and rob me. Me, I won’t be cold either.”

It took me a long time to recover from my sluggishness, and I took a long breath:

"Study hard and work hard."

"You are in the third grade of junior high school now, right? If you get a few more points, I will think of a way for you to go to Anxing to study. If you live on campus, you can stay away from this home."

“I can also afford the tuition and living expenses when I go to college.”

Zhaodi could no longer hold back her tears, so she cried and threw herself into my arms, shouting over and over again:

"Thank you sister!"

When Zhaodi finishes her high school entrance exam in half a year, she will use Lu’s father’s favor to find a good high school for Zhaodi!

I made up my mind, comforted Zhaodi with a few words of warmth, and while Bai Yaozu didn't come back, I bought her some small things a girl needs, and then I felt relieved and left.

I held the scarf I had just brought from Zhao Di, found a secluded place, and started making paper figures again with mixed emotions.

By the time I finished, the sky was almost completely dark.

I put the scarf into the paper man's body as a 'bone', and then, as usual, I shouted a mantra:

"The supreme power is so strong that I can adapt to changes without stopping. The paper manipulator guides me and makes me understand the truth."

This is my plan. If the paper man can lead me into a maze and use my personal belongings to find relatives and objects, I will naturally find the body with my grandma’s head on it.

I brought all my belongings with me and was fully prepared for a big battle.

But I didn't expect that the paper man I had tied up walked around in a dull circle and stopped in front of a lonely grave halfway up a secluded hill.

There is only one tomb, and there are no offerings in front of the tombstone. Are you not buried with your grandfather?
  I was a little suspicious, so I immediately took out the shovel I brought and started digging along the entrance of the hole.

Don't worry about filial piety or not. If it is really a zombie, it can harm many people!
  If you dig early now, you can save many people.

But the more I dug, the more frightened I became——

There is no body in this coffin!
  　I want to tell you that there is a reason for this chapter today, so it’s a bit late, but after thinking about it carefully, no one will read it anyway, so I’ll shut up.
