    Chapter 45 The Duck That Reached the Mouth Flew Away!

    Despite the grumbling, the work that needed to be done still had to be done.

    Gu Tangxi could only pull Gu Tangyue to hide on the side, keeping an eye on Luo Shuyou at all times. Whenever a zombie went to attack Luo Shuyou, Gu Tangxi would fling a fireball to knock it away, and then Xie YunChuan would promptly use vines to pull back the one that slipped through.

    Gu Tangyue was a little confused, and asked her sister stupidly, “What ‘stay away from him’? Why would he attack us?” She still naively thought Luo Shuyou was just a mentally disturbed child.

    “I’ll explain it to you later.”

    Xie YunChuan was dealing with five zombies alone, which was a bit much. He also had to prevent any of them from seizing an opportunity to run towards Luo Shuyou. Gu Tangxi had to protect Gu Tangyue and watch Luo Shuyou, so she couldn’t spare a hand to help him.

    Fortunately, these five primary zombies didn’t have a sense of teamwork, and soon Xie YunChuan found their weaknesses and defeated them one by one.

    Luo Shuyou and the White Tiger Cub were the most relaxed in the entire scene. Luo Shuyou strolled to the half corpse, picked up a severed hand and examined it in front of his eyes, curiously sniffing it.

    Not very fresh, and not as fragrant as Xie YunChuan, but edible. Luo Shuyou was hungry, so he wouldn’t be picky, and would make do.

    The White Tiger Cub next to him had no intention of stopping its master from eating human flesh. Although it thought this stuff was dirty and smelly, it expressed: understanding but respecting, whatever the little master likes is fine.

    Seeing Luo Shuyou picking it up and about to bite, it thoughtfully walked to the other side and kicked the remaining severed hand over, slowly moving it in front of Luo Shuyou and rubbing its little head against Luo Shuyou’s leg to ask for praise.

    When Xie YunChuan finished his work and turned around, he was horrified to find Luo Shuyou holding a bloody severed hand and putting it in his mouth. He didn’t care if Luo Shuyou could understand him, and shouted.

    “Luo Shuyou!”

    Luo Shuyou actually paused for a moment, holding the severed hand in his mouth without chewing or swallowing, mechanically turning his head and looking blankly at the direction of the sound. He couldn’t see anything now, just a red blur, and couldn’t think either.

    At the moment of biting into the human flesh, his brain seemed to be rapidly eroded by something, becoming chaotic.

    He only instinctively responded to the sound, but his attention was quickly drawn back to the “delicious” food in his hand, and he turned his head to continue his eating plan.

    Even the brief pause was enough for Xie YunChuan to quickly move next to him, knock away the severed hand, and pull him up to get him away from the corpse.

    Seeing this, the White Tiger Cub quietly kicked away the severed hand at its feet and followed Xie YunChuan as if nothing had happened.

    Fortunately, Xie YunChuan didn’t notice that it wanted to offer that hand to the little master, otherwise its future food supply would be in danger.

    Xie YunChuan directly reached into Luo Shuyou’s mouth and dug out the blood and flesh that he hadn’t had time to swallow, bit by bit, and then repeatedly rinsed his mouth with water, until there was no trace of blood and no smell of blood.

    Finally, he took out a handkerchief, and with a thought, the handkerchief naturally became wet. Ignoring Luo Shuyou’s struggle, he wiped the dirt and blood stains from his hands, and repeatedly rinsed them with water. His cleanliness was so extreme that the people next to him couldn’t stand it.

    “Hey, I said, Xie YunChuan, is this really necessary? He’s a…”

    Seeing Luo Shuyou eating human flesh, Gu Tangyue understood everything. Luo Shuyou wasn’t just mentally disturbed from being stimulated, he was clearly a little zombie.

    Xie YunChuan’s look successfully made Gu Tangyue change her next words.

    “Uh… I mean, he’s already very clean, really, cleaner than all of us, haha, of course, it’s not wrong to be clean, I mean, you continue… ah… continue.”

    This bootlicking was unparalleled.

    There was nothing she could do. She had just seen Xie YunChuan twist the necks of five primary zombies with his own strength. Five, not one or two, and not ordinary zombies.

    Her sister had to put in a lot of effort to deal with just one.

    This was a big shot, she had to latch on.

    Gu Tangyue’s face was smiling more miserably than crying at the moment, and she was crying in her heart, “Damn it, if she hadn’t held back just now, she felt that Xie YunChuan could stick an ice pick directly into her head in the next second.”

    Xie YunChuan noticed Luo Shuyou’s reddening eyes and out-of-control body, which confirmed his guess – eating human flesh would arouse Luo Shuyou’s zombie nature.

    He was in a very bad mood at this time, and his emotions were released a little, so the look he gave Gu Tangyue was cold and murderous, which frightened Gu Tangyue.

    Gu Tangxi patted the back of her head soothingly, “Look at your uselessness.”

    Gu Tangyue glared at her resentfully, “If you’re so good, you do it.”

    Gu Tangxi was too lazy to argue with her, and walked to Xie YunChuan and the others on her own.

    Luo Shuyou saw this mobile food source automatically walk to his side, and excitedly tried to pounce on it, but was firmly fixed by several vines that silently emerged from the ground, unable to move.

    Seeing Xie YunChuan wipe the last bit of water from Luo Shuyou’s hands, Gu Tangxi raised her eyebrows and said, “Only you, with your ice ability, can afford to use water so extravagantly.”

    After the teasing, there was a brief silence, as if weighing her words, “Xie YunChuan, since you want to raise him, then things like today are inevitable. Although it is indeed a bit cruel, but we haven’t killed anyone, right? It’s okay to pick up some dead people’s flesh for him to eat. He… he’s different from us, you can’t let him starve to death, can you? And your blood can’t be available every day.” Her heavy voice rang out, with helpless compromise and heartfelt advice.

    This was also why she had been paying attention to Luo Shuyou but hadn’t stopped him.

    In the apocalypse, it was common for people to eat people, let alone zombies eating human flesh. As long as he didn’t hurt the living, she felt it was perfectly acceptable for Luo Shuyou to pick up some dead people’s flesh to eat.

    “Dirty. He has me. He won’t be hungry, and he won’t die.” Xie YunChuan’s cold voice made it impossible to hear a trace of human warmth.

    Gu Tangxi: “…You!”

    After understanding his meaning, Gu Tangxi had a sudden feeling of “as expected.” Yes, someone who could keep a zombie by his side in the apocalypse, with his concern for Luo Shuyou, how could he not let him touch those things out of compassion? Just seeing his repeated cleaning showed his disgust.

    Indeed, humans… are quite dirty!

    Then Gu Tangxi saw Xie YunChuan lightly draw his thumb across his index finger, and a tiny ice blade formed at his fingertip, leaving a cut. Fresh blood immediately appeared, and he habitually reached into Luo Shuyou’s mouth, who was almost unable to control himself because of the smell of blood.

    Xie YunChuan knew that he couldn’t let Luo Shuyou touch human blood or human flesh again, but Luo Shuyou’s struggling and hungry appearance made it impossible for him to coldly refuse.

    Let him indulge this time.

    Gu Tangxi scoffed, “What a thorough service, even cutting it open and feeding it to his mouth. Why don’t you just swallow it for him?”

    “He won’t bite me.”

    Xie YunChuan didn’t care about Gu Tangxi’s sarcasm, just stating the facts seriously.

    Now it was Gu Tangxi’s turn to be shocked. She asked in surprise, “Do you mean he still has consciousness? He still recognizes you?”

    She had previously thought that Xie YunChuan’s various confusing behaviors with Luo Shuyou were Xie YunChuan using some method to control Luo Shuyou and prevent him from biting him, but she didn’t expect that it was actually that Luo Shuyou wouldn’t bite him?

    “Maybe!”

    His calm and unwavering tone showed no expectation or excitement, as if it didn’t matter to him whether it was true or not.
