After refusing marriage, she was pampered by the prince who acted as a shield.

Chapter 320: Tian Lingzi Has Arrived

Li Jingyang's eyes were somewhat serious. He couldn't help but turn his head to look outside the door, where the sky was overcast.

For some reason, he felt uneasy.

As night fell, the sky gradually darkened.

The moonlight was a bit cool. Li Jingyang woke up with a start, raised his head slightly, and listened carefully. He could still hear roaring sounds coming from outside the door.

Lin Rusi, who was already having trouble sleeping, couldn't help but sit up and look over because she was worried about Li Jingyang.

Seeing that he was awake, she immediately frowned: "Did you hear that?"

"Yeah, it's started again. I don't know why, but I feel like today is a little different."

Hearing this, Lin Rusi frowned and looked out.

Yes, she also felt that things seemed a little different today.

"Your Highness, may I go out with you?" Li Jingyang asked anxiously, suddenly getting up to go out.

But before leaving, Lin Rusi quickly grabbed his wrist: "Your Highness..."

Lin Rusi's words contained a plea, and she hesitated before speaking.

Seemingly guessing what she meant, the man stood up and put his arm around her waist.

The two flew away and quickly disappeared into the moonlight.

……

Li Jingyang led Lin Rusi on a tour, and the people of Danzhou had already mutated, just like they had a few days ago.

However, to Lin Rusi and the other person's surprise, in such cases, things usually return to normal the next day.

But the next day, when she went out, she was suddenly surprised to find that a man with a ferocious expression was still wandering the streets.

The moment he spotted her, he pounced straight at her.

Upon seeing this, Lin Rusi was stunned for a moment and unconsciously gasped.

In the critical moment, Li Jingyang pulled her away and said gently, "Go quickly! The situation has changed!"

He hurriedly pulled the person back into the room, where Gao Tuan and the others were also there, gathered together in a very serious manner.

The faces of the group were not good. Lin Rusi frowned, knowing that something had changed, but she didn't know what had happened.

"What's going on here?"

She asked the question casually, but no one answered.

After a long pause, Li Jingyang finally answered: "This morning, we discovered that some people had not recovered, and in some cases, their condition had even worsened, so..."

Ye Ruoruo frowned, usually smiling, but today her face was serious: "Their behavior seems to have evolved, and their bodies are different too. How should I put it, in short, they are no longer afraid of pain, and they can't die."

"Can't die?"

Lin Rusi found this utterly unbelievable; how could someone possibly not die?

Is that even human?

The thought of this possibility made Lin Rusi's face turn pale.

"So... are they still human?"

Thinking this way, Lin Rusi actually asked the question. She actually had an answer and felt that it wasn't true.

But when she actually said it, she felt it was unlikely.

No one could give Lin Rusi an answer. Even Ye Ruoruo remained silent for a long time before she seemed to have made a decision.

She suddenly stood up, a determined look in her eyes: "I've thought about it. It would be best to find a sample. If I can have a sample for reference, I can make comparisons."

“There’s one right outside the door.”

After a long silence, Li Jingyang suddenly blurted out this sentence, which everyone took as a joke.

But only Lin Rusi knew that this was indeed the case.

When Li Jingyang intervened to save the man, he knocked the crazed man unconscious.

"There is indeed one."

Thinking about this, Lin Rusi also felt quite amazed.

After all, as Ye Ruoruo said, the evolved zombies have become extremely powerful.

I don't know what method Li Jingyang used to subdue that person.

While she was thinking, two men went out and dragged the tied-up man back in.

Ye Ruoruo came over to check and examined the person from head to toe.

Looking at the condition of the people on the ground, she suddenly fell silent.

"This person is already dead."

Ye Ruoruo was silent for a while before suddenly saying this.

"What did you say?"

Lin Rusi doubted her ears, wondering if she had misheard.

“I said, this person is already dead. I checked his pulse and several other places, and the results were all the same.”

Hearing this, everyone's hearts sank instantly, especially Lin Rusi's.

If she remembered correctly, there were several such people she saw nearby this morning, if those people were all already dead.

So many people in the city have died because of this?

Lin Rusi's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Gao Tuan, let's go get two more undead and find out how many people have turned into this."

Gao Tuan did not refuse, but Su Xiangqing held his arm tightly, her eyes filled with obvious worry.

Gao Tuan smiled and shook his head: "It's alright, trust me, you stay here and keep them company."

His expression was gentle, and as soon as he finished speaking, he left with Li Jingyang, and the two quickly disappeared from sight.

When they returned, it was already afternoon. They brought back two samples, but their expressions were extremely serious, as they seemed to have seen something.

None of them spoke, focusing on waiting for Ye Ruoruo's test results.

Soon, Ye Ruoruo came out of the room where the living dead were imprisoned, but simply shook her head.

"It's confirmed. These evolved beings mutated after death. No wonder they can't die anymore, it turns out..."

Ye Ruoruo hesitated, her face showing some sorrow.

At this moment, Gao Tuan and Li Jingyang looked at each other, and neither of them spoke, which was unusual for them.

Sensing something was wrong, Lin Rusi immediately looked over: "What happened? Tell me quickly! Did you find something outside?!"

As expected, it was Lin Rusi who immediately noticed something was wrong.

"That's right, the death toll in Danzhou is nearly 10%..."

Danzhou has a high population density, the highest among the surrounding towns. Naturally, even 10% is a lot, which means that the entire population of the town lives in Danzhou.

What one percent represents is self-evident.

"Your Highness, we can't delay any longer. Things seem to be getting out of control." Lin Rusi frowned deeply.

"Hmm, is there any way to get close to them?" Li Jingyang turned to look at Ye Ruoruo.

Ye Ruoruo shook her head, walked to the other side, and took out some papers: "We can't delay any longer. I'll write a letter to Master. This is not something we can handle."

None of them spoke, but they all knew that only Tian Lingzi could probably resolve this matter.

……

A day later, Tian Lingzi arrived. In his letter, he had already learned about the situation here and had prepared medicine to deal with it.

It is said that it can control the living dead!

Upon arriving at the destination, Tian Lingzi remained calm and first went to examine the captured living dead specimens.

The matter was urgent, and the group quickly gathered around.

"Master, how is it? Have you seen it?" Lin Rusi turned to look at him and asked tentatively.

Tian Lingzi didn't speak, but pursed his lips for a long while before saying, "I do have the medicine."

As he spoke, he lowered his head, took out a dose of medicine, and handed it to the group.

It was a medicine packet, and it didn't smell very good. Lin Rusi sniffed it and found it really stinky.

But I couldn't smell what kind of herb it was.
