Chapter 83 The Walking Dead
Zhao Li looked at Liu Cheng and sighed, "Your wish is to go home to see your wife and daughter. I have helped you. Now that the spell has been broken, you should all come with me."

Liu Cheng's daughter had woken up when Peng Si escaped just now, and had been standing at the door of the room listening quietly. Even though Liu Cheng was still holding his head, Liu Lingzhi still looked at Liu Cheng without blinking.

Liu Cheng also saw his daughter and immediately put his head back on his neck, fearing that he would scare Liu Lingzhi. He approached her carefully and said, "Lingzhi, don't be afraid. Daddy is still here."

Tears flashed in Liu Lingzhi's eyes: "I know, I know Dad is dead, because only with a candle can I see you and Mom."

Liu Cheng was stunned and turned to look at Zhao Li in disbelief: "My wife has passed away too?"

Zhao Li nodded and said nothing.

"I heard from people in the town that he has been dead for a few days." Zheng Wenjie said as he handed the candle to Sanjiangshui and asked him to hold it.

"Mom...Mom is downstairs." Liu Lingzhi pointed to the first floor and cried, "Can you help Mom?"

Liu Cheng hugged Liu Lingzhi tightly in his arms, looked at the room where his wife's ghost was, wanted to cry but couldn't shed tears, looked at Zhao Li pleadingly: "My wife's body has not yet been buried, can you let me help her?"

Zhao Li didn't say anything, just nodded to show his agreement, and let Liu Cheng go down the stairs under Liu Lingzhi's guidance and come to a compartment behind the hall.

Zheng Wenjie and Zhao Li Sanjiangshui followed behind. Liu Cheng pushed open the door of the compartment. With a creaking sound, the fire held by Sanjiangshui also illuminated the compartment. The corpse on the wooden board that had been gnawed beyond recognition by rats came into view.

Although Sanjiangshui was afraid, he was more angry and sneered: "You have a big business, but you can't even afford a coffin when your wife passed away. The villagers in such a big town just sent some paper figurines and scattered some paper money, and that's it. No one came to help your daughter, and you just let the body lie there. You are really good at business."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense." Zheng Wenjie interrupted Sanjiangshui and looked at Zhao Li beside him: "His wife's ghost has been upstairs all the time. Why is it that she doesn't move at all?"

"Three souls and seven spirits. She has lost seven spirits. Even if she is reborn as a human in the next life, she will become an idiot." Zhao Li said coldly.

"How could it turn out like this! Is there any way to save her? I'm willing to do anything!" Liu Cheng said hurriedly.

"Only by constant reincarnation can new seven souls be slowly produced. Well, it's time for us to go. Say goodbye to your child." Zhao Li said directly.

Zheng Wenjie smiled and put his hand on Zhao Li's shoulder, pushing him out of the cubicle. Sanjiangshui swallowed and froze in place. He wanted to follow Zheng Wenjie out, but he had a candle in his hand. He thought that if he left, there would only be a little girl left in the cubicle, so he had no choice but to stand there.

"What's the hurry? We haven't seen each other for a long time. Don't you want to catch up with me?"

Zhao Li said helplessly: "Sir, the speed of time in the underworld and the human world is different. I just came out of the underworld five days ago. For me, only five days have passed since I last met you."

"Interesting. I've heard that one day in heaven is one year on earth, but I didn't expect it to be the same in the underworld." Zheng Wenjie smiled and suddenly asked, "What do you want the seven souls of Liu Cheng's wife for?"

"Well, what? Your Excellency has misunderstood. The seven souls of Liu Cheng's wife were separated by themselves due to her own mental illness." Zhao Li turned his head and looked at Zheng Wenjie seriously.

Zheng Wenjie made a disgusted expression and said, "Do you remember the first time we met? You wanted to attack me at that time. And what happened to Fang Ming in the end?"

"You've lived for so long. Don't say you feel sorry for Liu Cheng. I've seen many people who are more pitiful than him. Why don't you take action?"

Zhao Li was speechless. He had lived for nearly a thousand years and had done many good deeds. He still held an inexplicable compassion in his heart most of the time. But what Liu Cheng did was indeed for the seven souls of his wife.

Zheng Wenjie patted Zhao Li on the shoulder and said, "Tell me, I treat you as a good friend. I'm just satisfying my curiosity. It won't affect what you want to do."

Hearing this, Zhao Li was a little speechless. In Zhao Li's opinion, Zheng Wenjie was a dishonest and cunning person. He saw the whole process of Sakura Ji being deceived and killed by Zheng Wenjie.

Zhao Li breathed a sigh of relief and urged Liu Cheng because he didn't want Zheng Wenjie to find out. This matter could be a big or small matter, all depending on how Pluto decides.

"Liu Cheng's wife used her seven souls as a trade and asked me to bring Liu Cheng back to see her for the last time." Zhao Li had no intention of lying to Zheng Wenjie. After all, he might have already offended the King of Hell, so why should he offend Zheng Wenjie again?

"I only have a spirit, but no soul. When I became a soul ferryman, my soul was taken away by Hades. I want to get my soul back and my memories before I became a ferryman. If Hades won't give it to me, I will create one myself." Zhao Li said in a low voice.

Pluto... Zheng Wenjie looked at Zhao Li's traitorous appearance and couldn't help but want to test Pluto's background.

Zheng Wenjie suddenly leaned close to Zhao Li's ear and asked in a low voice, "Who is stronger, Hades or me?"

Zhao Li looked at Zheng Wenjie in astonishment: "What are you talking about?"

Zheng Wenjie had a joking smile on his face, but his voice revealed his seriousness: "Can I kill Hades and occupy the underworld? Then I will be Hades, and you will be my Yama, second only to me and above everyone else."

"You failed, didn't you? The seven souls of Liu Cheng's wife can't make you grow a new soul, but as long as you help me, I can snatch your soul back from Hades, and you will know where you came from and where you are going. You don't want to continue to live in a daze forever, right?"

Zhao Li violently broke free from Zheng Wenjie's hand on his shoulder, took two steps back and faced Zheng Wenjie.
"Do you know what you are talking about? Hades has lived from ancient times to the present."

"The Underworld is a place that can be compared to Kunlun Mountain in the God Realm. I don't see any possibility that you can defeat the Hades."

Zhao Li looked at Zheng Wenjie seriously: "As a friend, I will forget what you said, but I also hope that you will not mention Pluto again in the future."

Zheng Wenjie lowered his head slightly. He never forgot the opponent he would eventually face. One day he would face Tathagata who wanted to destroy the world and various gods.

Zheng Wenjie thought he was already very powerful, but he didn't expect that in the eyes of Zhao Li, he was not even qualified to compete with Pluto A-Cha.

Zheng Wenjie raised his eyes to look at the serious Zhao Li and said with a smile: "I was joking with you, why are you so serious? Relax a little."

Zhao Li took a deep breath and looked at Zheng Wenjie with a complicated expression: "I'm going to take Liu Cheng and his wife back to the underworld."

Zheng Wenjie suddenly looked up at the rooftop where the ghost of Liu Cheng's wife was: "Why did her ghost suddenly become stronger?"

Zhao Li counted with his fingers and said, "It's already past midnight. Today is her seventh day of mourning. Unfortunately, she has lost her seven spirits. Once the seventh day passes, she will completely lose all her emotions and desires."

"She loves Liu Cheng more than herself and her own children, but unfortunately, the most important thing to Liu Cheng is his business."

Zheng Wenjie laughed: "You shouldn't be critical if you haven't experienced other people's suffering, but they say a mother is strong. When she committed suicide, she never thought about her child. Believe it or not, it was because she gave birth to a girl, not a boy."

Zheng Wenjie turned and walked into the cubicle, and changed the subject: "But I'm in a good mood today, and I'm going to give her a chance to get revenge with her own hands."

Zhao Li patted his forehead, not knowing what Zheng Wenjie was trying to do. He just talked about how powerful Pluto was, but actually he didn't know how strong Zheng Wenjie was. Anyway, Sakura Princess was easily dealt with by Zheng Wenjie, so even two of him together might not be her match.

Zheng Wenjie walked to Liu Cheng, smiled at Liu Lingzhi who was in his arms, and asked Liu Cheng: "Do you want revenge? All this is caused by Peng Si." "Revenge? Can I still take revenge?" Liu Cheng said with a wry smile.

"Bring down the ghost of your wife. I can have her avenge your family with her own hands."

"Dad, it hurts~" Liu Cheng subconsciously held Liu Lingzhi tightly in his arms. He quickly let go of Liu Lingzhi when he heard her cry of pain. He looked up at Zheng Wenjie and said decisively, "Okay, I'll go right away."

Liu Cheng pushed Liu Lingzhi towards Sanjiangshui, knelt on both knees in front of Sanjiangshui, and kowtowed in a daze: "I, Liu Cheng, have nothing to repay you in this life. I will be your slave in the next life. I only ask you to take care of my child. I kowtow to you."

Sanjiangshui dodged quickly and said, "What the hell is this! We've only met a few times, and you haven't even said a word to me. You just threw the child to me like this. Aren't you afraid that I will sell her off?"

Liu Cheng raised his head and said sincerely: "I have traveled all over the country for so many years, and I can see that you are a good person. I beg you to help me."

Sanjiangshui looked at Zheng Wenjie and asked with a depressed look: "Master, what should I do?"

Zheng Wenjie looked at Liu Lingzhi. At about ten years old, she already understood what happened at home. Now she was not crying or making a fuss, acting like a little adult.

"Agree to it. The medical clinic and martial arts hall also need people to take orders." Zheng Wenjie said indifferently. The reason why Liu Cheng chose to entrust him to Sanjiangshui instead of Zheng Wenjie was because although Sanjiangshui mocked him, his words and deeds showed that Sanjiangshui pitied their family.

Although Zheng Wenjie wanted to help their family get revenge, Liu Cheng felt that Zheng Wenjie never took them seriously, just like he treated the weeds on the roadside.

Sanjiangshui seemed to agree reluctantly, and he couldn't help but smile as he took Liu Lingzhi's hand. After Liu Cheng left the cubicle, Sanjiangshui leaned down and said softly, "Little Lingzhi, don't be afraid. Uncle will take good care of you in the future."

Liu Lingzhi lowered her head, not wanting others to see the tears in her eyes, and whispered, "Thank you, uncle."

Zhao Li looked at Zheng Wenjie and asked, "Sir, what are you going to do?"

Zheng Wenjie frowned and looked at Zhao Li unhappily: "You just said that you regarded me as a friend, why did you change your name now?"

"Ajie, what are you going to do?" Zhao Li had no choice but to change his words. He had just told Zheng Wenjie to pretend he didn't hear what he said, but in fact he had been tempted, but he was not completely sure about the strength of Pluto and Zheng Wenjie.

"You will know soon." Zheng Wenjie looked at Liu Cheng who suddenly appeared and the ghost behind him and said lightly.

Zheng Wenjie waved his hand lightly, and a few flames accurately drove away the rat that had been hiding in Liu Cheng's wife's body, signaling Liu Cheng to put his wife's ghost and corpse together.

He casually cut open his fingertip, forced out a drop of blood, and integrated a trace of consciousness into the blood, which fell directly on the pale forehead of Liu Cheng's wife.

Sanjiangshui opened his eyes wide and watched Liu Cheng's wife's flesh and blood gradually recover. Although he knew that his son-in-law was extraordinary, seeing this scene still made him feel eye-opening.

Zhao Li looked in disbelief at the corpse that was constantly growing flesh and blood, as if it had just died. He turned his head and looked at Zheng Wenjie with fiery eyes.

Zheng Wenjie slapped Zhao Li in the face and said, "No matter what you think, you are overthinking. She is just a zombie now, a low-level zombie without intelligence. It is appropriate to match her with a ghost without seven souls."

"How many of these zombies can you create?" Zhao Li was a little excited, and his expression, which had been calm until now, changed.

Zheng Wenjie felt a chill: "What do you want to do?"

Zhao Li took a deep breath to regain his composure, shook his head and said, "It's okay, just a little shocked."

Zheng Wenjie gave Zhao Li a strange look. Could it be that Zhao Li was an antisocial person who wanted to release a zombie?

The upper body of the zombie suddenly sat up, but ignored the calls of Liu Cheng and Liu Lingzhi. Zheng Wenjie's voice kept echoing in his mind.
"Peng Si deceived you in all this. He killed you and Liu Cheng. You must take revenge! Kill him! Kill him!"

The zombie stared with its eyes which were gradually turning bloodshot, sniffing constantly with its nose, and suddenly jumped up, quickly leaving the Liu family mansion along the wall of the corridor like a four-legged spider.

Liu Cheng quickly grabbed Liu Lingzhi's shoulders and said anxiously, "You must be obedient. Do whatever your uncle tells you to do. You must grow up safely and happily."

Zheng Wenjie was too lazy to wait for Liu Cheng, so he and Zhao Li sped up and caught up. It was the first time that Zheng Wenjie used his blood and essence to create a zombie, and he also wanted to know how strong the zombie was.

Peng Si leaned against the tree, panting, and laughed as he looked at the Longmen Town vaguely visible at the foot of the mountain. The feeling of escaping was too wonderful.

"What a pity! The Liu family mansion was not sold." Peng Si patted his empty pockets and rested for a while. After recovering, Peng Si cursed fiercely: "Gong Family Clinic, I will make you pay the price!"

Peng Si stood up and prepared to continue running away. Suddenly, he touched his face to wipe off the water, raised his head and cursed: "Bad luck! It's going to rain... Ugh"

The once familiar face, pale skin, blood-red eyeballs, drops of saliva dripping from the mouth, and limbs strangely draped over the tree.

Peng Si's legs went limp with fear, and he supported himself on the ground with his hands and dragged himself backwards. His eyes blurred and the zombies that were originally hanging on the tree suddenly pressed together face to face. Peng Si screamed in fear and a piece of flesh was torn off his throat.

"Its speed and strength are very strong, stronger than many evil spirits. Many evil spirits cannot kill people directly and cannot even touch the bodies of living people." Zhao Li commented calmly.

Zheng Wenjie looked at Peng Si, whose flesh had been half eaten but not yet dead, and said, "It's just a stronger beast. One shot can turn it into slag. This kind of zombie is not of much use."

"That requires the cannon to be accurate." Zhao Li didn't want to talk anymore. Most low-level soul ferrymen were no match for this zombie and were just trash in Zheng Wenjie's eyes.

"Ajie, what are you going to do with it?"

"Do you want it? Unfortunately, I prefer the first time. I will give it to you next time I create a zombie." Zheng Wenjie said with a smile and waved his hand. The zombie kicked the ground a few steps with its hands and feet and flashed in front of Zheng Wenjie.

Zheng Wenjie rubbed his hands. As the zombies' bones continued to break, Zheng Wenjie rolled them into a ball and stuffed them into the red coffin.

Zhao Li covered his eyes and looked at the pool of blood on the ground and the pile of flesh and blood left from the zombies' stomachs. He vomited and began to mutter

"Is it really that serious? Are you really that serious? You turned such a big human body into a ball. Even the first eight levels of hell are not as cruel as you."

Zheng Wenjie looked at Zhao Li in confusion and slapped his forehead fiercely: "Be careful next time! I just thought that feeding a few drops of blood would heal me, but I didn't expect that I would disgust you. You know, I have killed too many people, and this kind of scene has become as common as the moon shining every day."

Zhao Li waved his hand and turned around, not wanting to talk. Until he saw Liu Cheng approaching from the bottom of the mountain, he suddenly said, "Ajie, I'm taking Liu Cheng back to the underworld first. I'll let you know when I know about the current situation of Hades."

"Okay, you can contact me anytime at the Gong Family Clinic in Hong Kong Island." Zheng Wenjie responded and looked at the bright moon rising high in the sky.
