My daily mountain driving, I met a fox at the beginning and got married

"Sir, please spare me! I'll do whatever you tell me to do."

He turned to look at Zhang Hao, a sinister glint flashing in his eyes, a glint that made his eyes even more captivating.

At that moment, it was as if something had entered his mind, and a voice told him that the person in front of him was really good-looking.

blond hair, blue eyes, tall stature, and a radiant smile—this was practically his ideal man…

Zhang Hao, expressionless, gently tapped his forehead, the clear light from his fingertips quickly dispelling the abnormal evil thoughts that suddenly popped into his mind.

Upon seeing Zhang Hao's actions, Fedor's pupils contracted, and genuine fear was revealed in his eyes.

How could this person... how could he resist his infallible hypnosis?

Zhang Hao coldly replied, "Seduce me, it won't work. I'm not interested in men!"

Fedor was even more surprised, then looked insulted: "What nonsense are you talking about? That's hypnosis, not seduction. I'm not interested in men!"

Zhang Hao secretly wondered, "This kid can even get the spells wrong, could it be that he hasn't practiced much at all?"

Judging from its weak aura, it shouldn't be a powerful, hidden demon.

Wow, did I just arrive in a foreign country and already encounter a wild fairy?
No, it should be described as a hybrid of fairy and zombie.

"You haven't studied this kind of knowledge, have you? All the spells you use are just instinctive, aren't they?"

Although Zhang Hao was asking, he was already certain in his heart.

He lifted the man up and put him in the car. After the others got in and the car door closed, Zhang Hao began to explain the knowledge of magic to him.

"You have the aura of a succubus and a zombie. Coupled with your tall stature and alluring appearance, I can tell you with certainty that you are a hybrid of a monster and a zombie. Who are your parents?"

Logically speaking, a succubus shouldn't be doing so poorly, given her racial talents, since humans' pursuit of beauty is endless.

But this young man had previously said that he came from a slum.

Succubi are naturally skilled at using their beauty to bewitch others, so how could they end up in the slums?

“I don’t know who my parents are. They abandoned me when I was born.”

Fedor spoke expressionlessly, glancing down at his wrist.

A hybrid of fairy and zombie?

I can understand fairies, but what are zombies? I've never even heard of them!

"You can think of it as a Western zombie."

Fedor turned pale with fright at this statement.

Zombies? Just thinking about the zombies he'd seen in those zombie movies made him feel nauseous and wanted to vomit!

Do I actually have the bloodline of that monster?
"However, strictly speaking, Eastern zombies and Western zombies are very different. Eastern zombies are like this."

Zhang Hao took out his phone, pulled up a picture of a zombie king, and then flipped through several other pictures, all of which showed ordinary zombies.

Aside from being completely black, surrounded by black mist, and looking evil, these zombies have perfectly normal facial features and bodies.

Is this a zombie?

Fedor stared in horror at the scene, asking fearfully, "Are these my father's kind? Who are you? How do you know these things?"

"We're tracking down an escaped zombie here. This zombie is the king of zombies, and this is what it looks like!"

Zhang Hao showed Fedor the original photo of the Zombie King, at which point Little Koi next to him added a few words.

"The Zombie King can change his appearance. This is what the Zombie King looked like when he last appeared."

Fedor looked at the thing, his brows furrowed tightly.

“You have the blood of this kind of creature in your veins, and you also have the blood of a fairy, which is why you use the kind of hypnosis you mentioned.”

Zhang Hao explained to the thief, "That wasn't hypnosis. He was just attracted by your beauty and his mind went blank, which is why he obeyed you so readily."

This explanation made Fedor blush.

I never thought hypnosis was like this. No wonder my enemies changed their attitudes towards me after I used this trick on them.

It turns out they were bewitched by themselves.

He had previously thought that the change in attitude towards him after being hypnotized, and the reduction in hostility, was a side effect of the hypnosis.

"You can think of us as Western magicians, the kind of secret magicians. We're here specifically to capture the zombie king. You have the aura of a zombie on you, so we want to get some clues from you."

Zhang Hao had somehow acquired a talisman burning with flames in his hand.

The fire within the talisman instilled a primal fear in Fedor!
The energy contained in that flame was devastating to him!

We have to get away from it, we absolutely have to get away from it!

Fedor backed away in terror: "What do you want to do? Do you want to burn me alive?"

Zhang Hao calmly said to him, "Calm down. This flame won't hurt you, of course, provided you cooperate with me. Otherwise, this flame could kill you."

Fedor stood motionless, watching the scene before him in horror. Following the other person's instructions, he picked up a knife, cut his finger, and held his hand out, letting the blood drip into the flames.

The flames burned, but when they touched the drop of blood, they were completely extinguished, leaving only a wisp of black smoke.

The wisp of black smoke did not dissipate; it slowly coalesced into a thin line, like a strand of hair.

The hair-thin thread floated around before finally settling on Fedor.

"What, what's going on?"

Fedor's body stiffened, and he dared not move an inch, for fear of accidentally touching this strange thing.

Is that really a wisp of smoke? It looks more like a rope.

Zhang Hao threw out a blank talisman, which instantly absorbed the wisp of smoke upon contact with it.

The talisman floated back to Zhang Hao. He put it away, folded it neatly, and put it in his pocket. He looked at Fedor and said, "This is a spell to track down the zombie king. If you have any connection with him, whether it's a friend, relative, or blood relative, you will be bound by this wisp of smoke."

However, the wisp of smoke did not bind Fedor, which means that the young man in front of him has nothing to do with the Zombie King.

"I had nothing to do with that kind of thing in the first place. Besides, I've already cooperated with your investigation, so can you let me go now?" The young man, Fedor, was still dreaming of leaving this place.

Zhang Hao told him, "The Zombie King has come to the West. He and his men crave the blood of special people. Your blood is a precious tonic for them, and you may very well die."

After pointing out the future threat, Zhang Hao invited him: "Why don't you join my side for now? If you join my side, you can save your life. Of course, the premise is that you have to follow my orders."

The other party was silent.

This sounds a lot like the PUA tactics used by unscrupulous recruiters.

Fedor considered himself a mature adult and patiently declined Zhang Hao's invitation: "Thank you for your invitation, but I still think making money is more important. If I stay with you and have to listen to your arrangements, I won't be able to earn money, I won't be able to pay my tuition, and I'll be kicked out of the school."

After saying that, Fedor's eyes darted around, and he looked at them expectantly: "Now that I can prove my innocence, shouldn't you let me go? I stole the things before because I didn't know who you were. Now that I'm returning the things to you, please let me go, okay?"

Besides, we've already arrived at our destination.

The entrance to the upscale apartment complex in the city center is clean and tidy, with two tall and strong security guards standing on either side, protecting the peace of the community.

Those so-called "experts" who loiter around the streets offering "free shopping" services don't dare to approach this place.

Because this place is equipped with the most elite police and patrol officers.

If anything unusual happens, the security personnel patrolling here have the right to shoot them directly.

Committing a crime here could easily cost you your life. Those "experts" who make a living from "free shopping" have weighed the pros and cons and directly designated this place as a no-go zone for "free shopping".

"Alright, I forgive what you did, and it was your own choice, so I respect it."

Zhang Hao took out his business card and handed it to Fedor. Under the other's questioning gaze, he calmly explained, "If any emergency happens around you, you can call me. We welcome you to join us anytime."

Zhang Hao got out of the car, carrying his luggage and holding the little koi fish. He showed the security guard at the gate the housing terms on his phone before the guard led them into the community.

However, just in case, the security guard made a point of seeing them off to the apartment they had originally agreed to rent.

After confirming that they were new residents, the security guard registered them.

Due to jet lag, Little Koi was quite tired and collapsed onto the sofa, saying weakly, "I'm so tired right now, I'm going to sleep for a while."

The sleeping koi fish began to snore in the living room.

When I woke up, I found that my luggage had been put away and my room had been tidied up.

This apartment has three bedrooms and one living room, with a separate bathroom and kitchen. It's also a high-rise building, and the view from the balcony is extremely expansive, definitely worth the high rent.

"We can't find the zombie king here, so why don't we just treat this as a vacation? Everything here is so interesting, we're already here, we can't let it all go to waste!"

The little koi fish looked at Zhang Hao with great interest, its eyes full of anticipation.

Zhang Hao calmly drank a glass of vegetable juice: "Honey, have you become a child again? Has your mind shrunk along with it? Or has your mind always been this immature?"

The little koi snorted coldly and said defiantly, "I'm just maintaining this persona. Alright, stop talking nonsense and just say it..."

Zhang Hao made a gesture of refusal, finished his vegetable juice, washed the cup, and walked towards the door: "I'm going out to investigate. You can stay at home or go out to play, just remember not to cause any trouble. This place is not like China, there aren't as many departments to cooperate with us to cover for us."

The little koi snorted, rolled its eyes, and said, "With my luck, how could anything happen to me?"

The little koi fish walked outside alone. The empty corridor was deserted, and most of the apartment doors were tightly closed.

Even if she wanted to visit her neighbors, she didn't bring any gifts, which was really worrying.

Never mind, I'm just a kid now, I'll just treat it as going...

Little Koi was just about to visit her neighbor when she saw a young woman, heavily pregnant, walk out of the elevator in the corridor ahead.

The woman was very beautiful, and every move she made was charming.

She was on her way home, and as she took out her keys to open the door, she suddenly turned and glanced at the little koi fish.

The other person took a deep breath and looked at the little koi fish with curiosity: "Hello, cute little girl, are you the new neighbor?"

The little koi nodded and admitted, "That's right, I'm new here. What's wrong?"

Perhaps it was just intuition, but this woman, though very beautiful and with a good temperament, seemed gentle and harmless.

But the little koi just subconsciously didn't want to get close to her, let alone have any contact with her.

"Oh, baby, I just made some cookies that kids love. Would you like to try some? My baby is due soon, so I'm learning to make some things that kids like to eat. I hope I can make delicious food for my baby in the future."

The woman chattered on and on, which annoyed Little Koi. She wanted to refuse her, but wouldn't it seem unfriendly to refuse her right after she moved in?
In the human world, isn't there a saying that a close neighbor is worse than a distant relative?

Forget it, since we're neighbors, let's try to get along well.

"Okay, I love cookies the most. Thank you so much, beautiful auntie."

The young woman smiled and then unlocked the door to her apartment.

The woman's apartment was very clean, but there was a faint smell of disinfectant in the air. This smell made Xiao Jinli feel very uncomfortable.

The smell of this disinfectant is ridiculously strong, even stronger than in a hospital. If you didn't know better, you'd think this was a hospital.

"Oh, by the way, why aren't your family members here?"

The little koi fish casually made up a story: "My dad is an incredibly powerful feng shui master. He went out to check the feng shui of the surrounding area. You might not know, but this is a very mysterious profession in our East, with a history of several thousand years."

The woman was very supportive, smiling and asking politely, "Wow, that's amazing! What exactly does your dad do? It sounds so mysterious and unusual, I'm really interested!"

Little Koi chuckled: "My dad specializes in dealing with all sorts of evil spirits. You probably haven't heard of them, like exorcising ghosts, catching monsters, and a lot more... Anyway, my dad is super awesome. He's actually here on a business trip, seems to have some things to take care of, so he went out. By the way, this profession is called Celestial Master in the East, but I don't know what it's called in the West."

The little koi fish kept chattering away.

The disinfectant smell here is so strong that it makes me feel dizzy after a while.

"So that's how it is." The woman's face had turned somewhat pale as she spoke.

"By the way, why does your place smell so strongly of disinfectant? It makes me want to vomit. There's no virus going around lately, why are you spraying so much disinfectant?"

The pale-faced woman's smile became increasingly forced. She looked at the little koi fish, a hint of conflict flashing in her eyes.

"Having lived with your dad for so long, have you learned some skills to deal with evil spirits and demons?" The woman asked curiously, handing the little koi some snacks. (End of Chapter)
