Chapter 67
Wei Qiang used the System again to scan Yu Qingxian's abilities.
She found that her combat power had even decreased.
If it was about 8 before, now it was only 5.
Not only had she not made any progress, she had regressed.
That made sense.
If it weren't for the System confirming it, she might not have even detected the existence of this little zombie.
Her presence was fading.
Being such a weak zombie, could she survive well in this apocalypse?
The answer was probably unknown, though this little zombie was alive and well.
Wei Qiang confirmed that the other zombies were several kilometers away, then her gaze fell on the male zombie, glancing at him before fixing her eyes on Yu Qingxian.
Shi Xingyu knew he was being ignored...
Now both humans and zombies completely disregarded him, an advanced zombie.
Truly, social values were in decline.
Qin An did not get out of the car.
Initially, he thought the person who had delivered medicine to him was a powerful person, so he had planned to recruit them into his team.
But after hearing from Wei Qiang that the person was a zombie, he abandoned that idea.
His three team members were also left behind at the official base.
As zombies were growing stronger, Qin An naturally would not allow those three teammates to follow.
So he left them at the official base.
He also did not like staying in one place for too long.
More importantly, Qin An was rather attracted to Wei Qiang.
And Wei Qiang was even more unwilling to remain at the base.
Even if alone, she wanted to leave.
Qin An knew that Wei Qiang was not as gentle and in need of care as her name suggested.
But he still could not help but follow her.
It was just that Qin An did not know why Wei Qiang was so fixated on that little zombie.
He did not ask, nor did he necessarily need to know.
So at this moment, Qin An stared intently at Yu Qingxian, wanting to see what was unique about this little zombie.
But she was indeed quite unique.
This was the first time he had ever seen a green zombie.
But he was also quite curious about why this little zombie would help humans.
Seeing the two people staring at her, Yu Qingxian tugged on Shi Xingyu and tried to hide behind him.
But it was no use.
Shi Xingyu pulled her out from behind him.
"They can't understand what I'm saying," said Yu Qingxian.
She had tried this when facing that mother and daughter before.
Humans could not understand what she said.
Upon hearing this, Shi Xingyu said, "It's because you don't want to communicate with humans. Try speaking the way humans do."
Yu Qingxian looked puzzled after Shi Xingyu said this.
She had always spoken this way.
But since Shi Xingyu said so...
"You speak for me instead," Yu Qingxian said as she retreated behind Shi Xingyu again.
Shi Xingyu: ...Big sis, you come out and speak yourself!!!!
But this time he did not pull Yu Qingxian out, instead looking at Wei Qiang.
"You've been chasing after us for so long, what do you want to do? Say it clearly first, just because she doesn't eat humans doesn't mean I won't eat humans. For this period I've only refrained from acting against you out of consideration for her. This time too. Be prepared to explain yourself, because if you keep chasing us like this in the future, I won't be so polite."
Shi Xingyu was now very fluent in speaking the human language.
There was none of that previous raspy quality, sounding just like an ordinary boy's voice.
Not particularly pleasant, but not unpleasant either.
After all, Yu Qingxian's ears had been trained to be quite picky by those radio plays and various animations.
So in Yu Qingxian's ears, an average voice might actually sound quite pleasant to ordinary people.
Thinking of this, Yu Qingxian wondered if the voice actors she liked were still alive?
Should she ask them for a joint photo?
Back when those voice actors appeared, there were too many fans, so she did not dare approach.
At this moment, Yu Qingxian began to drift off again.
Wei Qiang watched as Yu Qingxian stared absentmindedly at Shi Xingyu's back, unsure what she was thinking about, before shifting her gaze to Shi Xingyu.
She was indeed quite surprised that two zombies could cohabit like this.
The System had said that zombies would not exhibit group living behavior.
Especially two powerful zombies would be even less likely to stick together.
Of course, weaker zombies might be able to do so.
So Wei Qiang thought that Yu Qingxian must be under Shi Xingyu's control.
But from the current situation, the relationship between these two zombies seemed to be the other way around.
"Apologies, I was just quite curious about this zombie. After becoming a zombie, her combat power not only did not increase, it actually decreased. I've been wanting to investigate this. Of course, I mean no ill will," Wei Qiang said.
And from this male zombie's words, she could tell that the little zombie did not eat humans.
Which meant she likely still retained human morals.
Otherwise, she would not have helped Qin An retrieve medicine.
But how much of her humanity remained, Wei Qiang was unsure.
Probably not much.
If she still retained significant human consciousness, she should want to integrate into human society, rather than lingering among zombies.
Hearing Wei Qiang's words, Shi Xingyu narrowed his eyes slightly, clearly not believing her.
Just out of curiosity, which led to chasing after Yu Qingxian for over half a year?
Shi Xingyu did not believe that.
He asked Yu Qingxian quietly, "Do you believe her?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Qingxian's gaze moved to Wei Qiang's face, then shifted back, "Tell her not to follow me anymore." As for Shi Xingyu's question, Yu Qingxian simply ignored it.
Shi Xingyu was long used to her ways, so he relayed Yu Qingxian's words to Wei Qiang.
After hearing Yu Qingxian's words from Shi Xingyu, Wei Qiang seemed to want to say more, but ultimately chose to remain silent.
"Don't worry, I won't show up again, and I'll keep your affairs to myself," Wei Qiang said.
She had originally thought this zombie would be able to communicate with her.
But now it seemed that even if they were both loners, it did not mean they got along.
After saying this, Wei Qiang turned and went back to her car, removing the tracking of these two zombies from the System.
She would no longer need to track this zombie.
As Qin An started the car, he still looked at Yu Qingxian, "Thank you for the medicine before."
Saying this, Qin An rolled up the window, and the car drove past Yu Qingxian and Shi Xingyu.
Shi Xingyu watched as the car disappeared down the street before turning back to Yu Qingxian.
Yu Qingxian showed no reaction to the human's thanks.
"I thought you did good deeds for the sake of hearing that 'thank you'," Shi Xingyu said, somewhat surprised.
For humans, that should be something to feel happy about.
But looking at Yu Qingxian, she seemed completely unmoved.
Her expression was the same as always.
"I didn't do such things to hear him say 'thank you'. I do them because it makes me happy, that's all," Yu Qingxian said.
She only did things to satisfy herself.
Perhaps as someone like her living in a group, she belonged to the selfish type.
She had to make herself happy first, before worrying about others.
She did good deeds because she wanted to, not for any other reason.
She really had no way of becoming a kind person like her parents.
Thinking this, Yu Qingxian noticed Shi Xingyu staring at her.
She was a bit puzzled.
What was he looking at?
It's not like she was some breathtaking beauty.
"Your face, did you stitch it up yourself?" Shi Xingyu asked.
"You only just noticed? Not bad handiwork, eh!" Yu Qingxian proudly flicked her long hair back.
"Very poor," Shi Xingyu stated bluntly.
She had even sewn it crookedly, leaving several needle holes.
It was good that it was just her own face, and she hadn't messed up some other zombie's.
