Chapter 1 (2)
Smelling the smell of blood in the air, his teeth couldn't help but grow a little longer, and a strong longing in his heart was ready to come out. But that person is Liu Zhi, she is not wrong to feed the child with flesh and blood, how can she...
He suppressed it desperately, his teeth hurt the palate, his nails became long and black, and he wanted to tear everything into pieces in the itching pain. Looking at himself in the coffin lid, his eyes were blood red and his white hair was still growing. Almost losing his mind, he suddenly recalled a passage of scriptures taught to him by an old monk he met in a temple during the battle, and quickly began to recite silently in his heart. Finally, he gradually regained consciousness, and the fangs, nails, and white hair on the surface of his body also gradually receded.
Seeing that he had returned to his original, clear and handsome appearance, the baby couldn't help reaching out to scratch his face, and Jiang Liu also bowed his head and kissed her little hand.
Looking around, he was wondering if he should find a way to get out. In order to prevent tomb thieves, the general mausoleum is full of traps, and the inside and outside are completely sealed. But usually craftsmen know that they will be buried alive inside, and they will build some secret passages, which should not be difficult to find.
But he didn't expect that the little baby was holding the willow branch and babbling all by himself, so he curiously reached out and took out the beads from her mouth.
It's too bad, Jiang Liu has a bad feeling, Liu Zhi hasn't woken up yet. But it was too late to stop it, and the corpse of Liu Zhi was decomposed into a mummified skeleton at an extremely fast speed. Holding the bead, the little baby was at a loss, and when he saw his mother suddenly become like this, he burst into tears.
Jiang Liu stood dejectedly for a few seconds, and pulled up the willow branch's shawl to cover her face.
Originally wanted to go with the willow branch, and Huangquan Road also guarded her, but I didn't expect to become this person who is neither human nor ghost. Whether it is life or death is not important, but there is still Liu Zhi's child to take care of. Then live, no matter what form or method you live in, as long as you live, there is hope...
Jiang Liu picked up the child, picked up the two identical beads and put them in his arms, bowed in front of the willow branch curtain, and left the mausoleum.
Thousands of years later.
Taoyuan City was also called Taoyuan City in the past, because the place where the fortress is located has been a military battlefield since ancient times, and there are several mass graves. In order to calm grievances, peach trees are planted everywhere to ward off evil spirits, but all kinds of non-humans still like to gather here. On the contrary, peach blossoms are in full bloom in March every year, and the city is full of colorful flowers, which brings considerable tourism income to Taoyuan City.
At three o'clock in the morning, a roadside along the river in the city center was still bustling with people. This is a famous bar street, even late at night, there is an endless stream of people coming and going. At the end of the street, there is a small shop. Different from the bar next door, which is decorated in a luxurious, peculiar, or individual style to attract customers, it is very simple to set up a light box next to the door, which says "adult goods store", and hangs a red signboard "Boneless Fragrance" on it. ".
General adult goods stores are opened near residential areas. The land here is expensive, and there are not many customers coming and going in the store. Others are wondering how it can continue to operate. Occasionally, I got a headache from the music in the bar, so I wandered into this store casually.
The store has a complete range of goods, in addition to general condoms, **** underwear, **** toys, and various medicines for nourishing yin and strengthening yang. If necessary, you can also order by phone, and it will be delivered to your door.
The owner of the shop is always absent, and the shop usually opens in the evening, with a girl around fourteen or fifteen watching. If you are a thin-skinned young person who comes to patronize, seeing that the person selling these things is a little girl, you will inevitably be shy. If you encounter a dirty uncle or someone who is drunk in the bar next door and wants to make trouble, as soon as you walk into the store and smell the incense burning in the Pixiu golden incense burner next to you, you will spend money to buy a lot of things, and then Dizzy and happy to leave.
At this moment, the door of Tuoguxiang's store was pushed open again, and the wind chimes hanging at the door rang for a while, which was particularly pleasant to hear. The person who came couldn't help but look up, it was white, piece by piece, and I don't know what material it was made of, it looked like a string of bones hanging, and couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart.
The little girl behind the counter is playing Plants vs. Zombies facing the computer screen. Her bangs are messy and fixed on the top of her head with a pen cap. Her eyes are very big and her eyelashes are long and dense. She didn't even lift her head when she heard the customers come in.
"You, hello..."
"Hi sir, we have all kinds of imported adult products from Europe, America, Japan and Korea. The latest arrivals include fun vibrating eggs, fun mouth plugs, and inflatable dolls. What do you want..."
The little girl didn't even raise her eyelids, and she spoke like a jingle.
The young man was so ashamed that his whole face flushed red.
"No, it's not... Miao Yan introduced me, saying that I can get goods here."
The girl raised her head and raised her eyebrows: "Do you want fresh or expired ones, eight hundred for fresh ones, two hundred for expired ones, extra money for special blood types. Each bag is 200cc, and you can get 5% off if you buy ten bags at a time. 10% off twenty bags."
"Ah, it's so expensive. It's a robbery. Fifty bags of fresh type A blood...is that okay?" He doesn't want to come here next time. If other girls, no, even female zombies and female vampires see him coming in, I'm sorry too, he thought, frowning.
"Temporarily there are only O-type and AB-type ones, and the others are out of stock. After a long time, they will not be fresh. How about it, I will give you ten bags, and you can eat it for more than a month if you save some. Recently, the stock is tight, so I will buy it when it is finished." .”
As he spoke, he went into the back room, took a big bag, packed it, and carried it to him.
"Can I change the bag?" The man's face turned even redder when he saw a "Boneless Fragrance Sex Toy Store" on the colorful plastic bag and a woman with blond hair twisting her waist in a bikini.
The girl took another black plastic bag and handed it to him.
"Card or Cash?"
"Swipe card..."
Finally the bill was settled, the man looked around in a panic, and ran out quickly and cautiously.
"Welcome next time." The girl continued to sit down and started playing with the computer.
As soon as his **** was hot, a man wearing a red mandarin jacket, wearing tattered shoes, and a big braid on the back of his head walked into the shop again, carrying a big linen bag in his hand. I don't know, I thought it was filming a TV series.
Before Jiang Xiaosi opened his mouth to introduce the products in the store, he put the bag on the counter with a bang.
"Where's the shopkeeper? Where's the shopkeeper?"
The girl raised her head and squinted and smiled: "Hi, I am. What do you want to buy?"
"I'm not here to buy things, I'm here to sell things, I heard you accept this here?"
The man opened the sack, and there was a porcelain bottle inside.
"I just came out, my family is average, and I don't have much funerary objects. This bottle is a family heirloom!"
The girl took it and looked at it carefully. This is a lotus dragon ear bottle with tangled branches. The glaze is rich, elegant and transparent, and it looks especially beautiful under the reflection of light.
The girl sighed lightly and slowly shook her head: "It's a pity..."
"What a pity?"
"The texture of the tire is rough and the painting is dull. It is a fake."
"What!" The man was so angry that his whip almost turned up, holding the bottle and looking left and right, it seemed that it was different from the original one.
"Damn! She told that woman to bury the bottle with me, yet she dared to fool me with a fake one! If I had known, I would have dragged her to be buried with me!"
The man was about to throw the bottle on the ground as he spoke.
"Don't, don't!" The girl hurriedly stopped him, "Although it is a fake, it is still from the Kangxi period. It is worth a little money. What a pity to smash it! How about it, I will give you 30,000 yuan."
"Thirty thousand? Is it enough for me to buy a house here and marry a few concubines?"
The girl had a black line: "I'm afraid it's not enough, but you can buy another set of clothes and shoes and put them on. It's more than enough."
The new zombie has just crawled out of the grave and wants to reintegrate into society. It is not easy to live the life of ordinary people. If there is a slight crime, there are a lot of ascetics and law enforcement officers who are also hiding in the city Waiting to be picked up and hunted down.
So the man took the money and stuffed it into a sack, happily went shopping in the mall.
"Dad, you are back!"
The man in front of him has a handsome appearance and a calm smile. Although it is clear but bottomless, he has a cold and firm determination. Wearing a black windbreaker, he looks slender and tall, with a restrained and free and easy look in his calmness. It is Jiang Liu who came back from the dead.
He looked down at his daughter tenderly, his eyes were like stars on an autumn night washed with dew.
"Xiao Si, are you still playing games? Are you sleepy? There is class tomorrow, so go to bed first."
"I'm not sleepy at all."
"Your teacher has called and told me several times, saying that you always doze off in class."
"Anyway, the teacher knows how to teach. It sounds boring. It's better to sleep."
"If you're bored, don't go."
"Classes are boring, but school is still very interesting, and Yueyi can play with me. I don't want to be bored at home by myself every day."
"I'm sorry, dad is a little busy recently and doesn't have time to accompany you."
"It's okay, you are busy with your work, and I will play with mine." Jiang Xiaosi tilted his head indifferently.
"What did you have for dinner today?"
"I haven't eaten yet."
"Are you just playing games again?" Jiang Liu handed over a small black luggage bag.
Jiang Xiaosi opened the bag and looked, pouted in frustration: "Why are there so many type O blood? I don't want to drink any more. I'm so tired. Most of them are still expired. Dad, several blood types are out of stock. .”
Jiang Liu went to the sofa and sat down.
"There are more people with O blood type. Recently, the hospital has not enough plasma. Patients with other blood types need it urgently."
"You said that as long as I behave well, I can drink 100cc of RH every month! Talking is nothing!"
"Do you want the expired one?"
"No." Jiang Xiaosi pouted, "Then I want to eat steak today."
"Okay, I'll do it." Jiang Liu took off his coat, put on an apron, and quickly transformed into a gentle and caring man.
Soon the dinner was ready, Xiao Si was greedy and tricky, Jiang Liu had been cooking and learning for a thousand years, there was no country or dish he could not cook, and he was almost a chef Demon.
The two sat around the table, and Xiao Si raised a goblet full of blood and poured it on the medium-ripe steak. Hearing the sound of "sizzling", his saliva almost dripped down.
"Xiao Si, why haven't you seen your classmate come to pick you up to school recently?"
"I chased him away, it's annoying to follow my **** every day."
"He likes you. I don't object to you having a boyfriend. Go out and hang out more when you have time, talk about love, watch movies, and don't always sit in front of the computer."
"Dad, think about it. Although your daughter is as beautiful as a flower, she is almost a thousand years old. How can I fall in love with a boy in his teens? Isn't that old grass eating tender cows?"
Jiang Liu shook his head and smiled helplessly: "Isn't his intelligence still in his teens, has he improved in these years?"
Jiang Xiaosi is half human and half zombie. Although he will grow up, it will be very slow. It has been almost a thousand years, and he has only grown to his current appearance.
"In short, I must find a boyfriend with RH blood type! Dad, you will find me a new mother sometime, my mother has been dead for so many years."
Jiang Liu was silent for a while, then changed the subject and said: "There is something wrong with the Aiya Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, I will go to see it tomorrow."
"A ghost haunting?"
"It's not clear. More than a dozen women who had abortions there this month have died, and the babies who were born not long ago are also dying."
"Do you want me to accompany you?"
"No, you look at the store, I'll go there when the time comes, and there happens to be a dead baby to help with makeup."
Jiang Liu works as a surgeon in a hospital during the day, and a makeup artist at night. Because I have suffered so much, I don’t want to see my kind rely on hurting people and sucking blood for a living, so I opened Tuoguxiang. On the surface, it is an adult goods store, but in fact it sells blood plasma, and is also an antique business, as well as selling Tuoguxiang.
There are many underground blood farms in the dark world, but there is only one that sells bones. Because it was developed by Jiang Liu himself, it sounds a bit like a love potion, but it is actually a medicine for treating the bites of inhumans.
Werewolves, vampires, zombies, half-orcs, monsters, or people with supernatural powers are collectively referred to as non-humans. They have their own worlds and circles of life. For example, Baili Street in Taoyuan City is the famous dark world. one.
Jiang Liu has been doing research in this area for many years, trying to solve the mystery of how he came back from the dead and turned into a zombie. He thinks that non-human causes may be viruses or genetic mutations, while ghosts and ghosts do not rule out the influence of magnetic fields and human brain waves.
Nowadays, some people have used scientific experiments to assert the existence of the soul from the weight lost at the moment of death. The acupoints and meridians that cannot be discovered by Western medicine anatomy can also be seen with hundreds of glows from the human body under special instruments, corresponding to the acupoints one by one. He believes it's only a matter of time before everything has a sound scientific explanation.
For example, if acupuncture and moxibustion are used to lose weight, the first time the needle is inserted, the person can lose 2 to 5 catties in less than half an hour. Weight loss is even more miraculous. With the development of medicine, it can be known that the excreted part is triglycerides, but how to do it is still to be studied.
The reason why Jiang Liu has been paying attention to these things is fundamentally for Jiang Xiaosi, fearing that the half-zombie half-human situation will go wrong sooner or later.
Thinking of this, Jiang Liu sighed softly: "Xiao Si."
"What?"
"Next Monday is your mother's death day, I will take you back to worship."
"Dad, you go back to pray every year, and you have been worshiping for a thousand years. You have been so busy recently, so you can just burn incense at home, and mother will not blame you."
Jiang Liu smiled without answering, quietly eating the steak, the plate was bloody, but his movements were extremely elegant.
"Go to sleep after eating."
"Well, good night, Dad." Xiao Si stretched his neck, kissed him on the cheek, bounced back to the upstairs room and fell asleep.
Jiang Liu sat alone on the guardrail by the river, with an apple-flavored lollipop in his mouth, looked up at the stars, took out a copper coin from his bosom, and carefully stroked it, with the words "Tianxi Tongbao" on it. Already blurred, after years of playing with it, it has become extremely warm and moist, but the edges have been worn very sharply. A slender silver chain is pierced through the square hole, which condenses his thousand-year mana, which can easily destroy gold and jade.
Going back to the room, he covered Jiang Xiaosi, who was sleeping crookedly, with a quilt, and kissed her forehead lightly.
Thousands of years have passed in a blink of an eye. If it weren't for Xiao Si, he would really be living like a walking dead. He failed to protect Liu Zhi before, but now, the only thing he can do is to protect Xiao Si and prevent her from any harm.
Go back to his room and lie down in the coffin. Although it has been so long, he is still not used to sleeping on the bed. Being in a small and closed space can make him feel more secure and calm. When the coffin lid was closed, the world was plunged into darkness, and the body seemed to slowly sink to the bottom of the lake.
