Joining Tiandao Company: Starting by mending a zombie world

Shaozhou City.

The city was several times larger than Gantian Town, with gray-blue walls riddled with bullet holes.

A long queue formed at the city gate, including peddlers carrying loads and refugees fleeing the disaster.

"Wow, this provincial capital is huge."

Yu Chuda stood on tiptoe to look around. He had grown up in the mountains since he was a child, and the largest town he had ever been to was only a county town. The scene in front of him was truly an eye-opener.

"Young men, when you get to the city, don't strike up conversations with random people."

"Be careful not to be mistaken for a communist and thrown into jail."

After entering the city, the villager escorted Chu Sheng and Yu Chuda to the inn, reminding them of something before leaving.

"Junior brother, what are Red Bandits?" Yu Chuda asked, looking bewildered after getting out of the car.

"We are the Red Bandits." Chu Sheng looked at Yu Chuda, who looked exactly like the foolish son of a landlord, and explained what the Red Bandits were.

I'll also tell him what a "guanren" (a male prostitute) is.

"I see." Yu Chuda patted his chest, looking at Chu Sheng with lingering fear. "Luckily, Junior Brother, you interrupted me just now."

"Otherwise, how heartbroken that fellow villager would be if I asked that question."

Chu Sheng smiled and said, "Let's go, senior brother. Go out and travel more in the future, and you'll naturally understand everything."

Yu Chuda nodded seriously: "Yes... Master also said that traveling ten thousand miles is worse than reading ten thousand books."

"I want to travel more in the future, especially to Northeast China."

Chu Sheng was taken aback, stopped walking towards the inn, and turned back to look at Yu Chuda curiously: "Senior brother, what are you going to the Northeast for?"

"Look at the immortal!" Yu Chuda said. "My master said that there is a true immortal in Changbai Mountain who has reached the legendary Golden Core realm."

Upon hearing Yu Chuda's words, Chu Sheng casually asked, "Is Master just one step away from reaching the Golden Core Realm?"

Yu Chuda nodded: "That's right, Master is just one step away from condensing his Golden Core and becoming a Grandmaster."

Chu Sheng suddenly realized that the concept of cultivation level was somewhat vague to him, and asked again, "How high is the level of a Golden Core expert?"

After pondering for a moment, Yu Chuda chuckled and said, "The Ghost King's Palace only needs 30% of its power."

"Unpredictable and mysterious, he is virtually unmatched in the world."

"So strong?" Chu Sheng asked in surprise.

According to Yu Chuda, wouldn't Mao Xiaofang after the mirror was broken be able to beat twenty Mao Xiaofang before the mirror was broken?

"My dear junior brother, once you enter the Golden Core stage, you are no longer human."

"You're still young, there's a lot you don't understand." Yu Chuda patted Chu Sheng on the shoulder and smiled smugly.

"Senior brother..."

Chu Sheng was amused by Yu Chuda's earnest yet cheeky manner.

With a quick thought, he deliberately adopted a serious expression and stared intently at Yu Chuda.

"What?" Yu Chuda was taken aback, and had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

"Did you bring any money?" Chu Sheng asked.

"No," Yu Chuda shook his head and asked in return, "Didn't you bring money with you?"

"That's good..." Chu Sheng grinned and strode towards the inn, calling out leisurely, "You stay in the woodshed tonight, and I'll stay in the superior room."

"Hey... Junior brother, this isn't right." Yu Chuda quickly caught up with Chu Sheng and said with a smile, "What did I do wrong, senior brother? I'll correct it. Please don't make me live in the woodshed."

Chu Sheng naturally couldn't really let Yu Chuda live in the woodshed. He teased him for a while, and when he saw that the time was about right, he decided to wait.

I asked the innkeeper for two superior rooms.

"Senior brother, I want to sleep a little longer tomorrow. If you wake up, you can eat whatever you want. Here is some travel money."

Chu Sheng looked at the ten-minute countdown in his mind and handed Yu Chuda ten silver dollars.

At the same time, Itachi was also handed over to the other party.

"So many?" Yu Chuda was slightly surprised. Just as he was about to return a few to Chu Sheng, the door slammed shut with a "bang".

A voice came from behind the door: "Senior brother, Itachi can eat a lot, so don't let him go hungry."

Yu Chuda's eyes lit up. He patted Itachi, who was resting calmly with his eyes closed on his shoulder, and said with a smile, "Itachi is saying that you're greedy."

Itachi suddenly opened his eyes, slapped Yu Chuda's face, and then fell asleep again with two squeaks.

Yu Chuda, his face covered in flowers, was left there feeling dejected.

...

After entering the room.

Chu Sheng locked the door, walked to the bedside, and hid the extra gold bars under the bed. Apart from a few special Yuan Shikai silver dollars, there were other items in the storage compartment.

They are all things that carry good fortune.

These varying degrees of luck are just the right amount to use in a trade with that senior.

As the countdown reached zero, a familiar sense of detachment arrived as expected.

Chu Sheng felt the light and shadows shift before his eyes, and with each blink, he saw the familiar ceiling of the rented room again.

He ordered a large cloud-shaped cigarette.

I glanced at my phone—5:17 AM.

As expected, fourteen hours have passed since he last left.

"call……"

Chu Sheng exhaled a long smoke ring and lay back down on the bed.

As expected, his phone alerted him with a series of "ding-dong" sounds, and he calmly opened it to check.

"Congratulations to employee P1, Xiao Fang (ID: 168888), for successfully completing the Zombie Taoist Priest consecutive quests and triggering this settlement!"

"You helped the guerrillas and killed 54 island enemy soldiers, earning 54 merit points."

"You eliminated 32 imps inside the palace, earning 20 merit points."

"You made a well-planned move to help Mao Xiaofang eliminate the ghost cultivator Aisin Gioro Hui Ji, and have earned 600 merit points."

Total: 674 merit points

"Due to Xiao Fang's outstanding performance in this task (ID: 168888), this will be recorded in his performance evaluation file."

Chu Sheng was overjoyed as he looked at the series of message notifications.

Defeating that madwoman Aisin Gioro Huiji actually earned me over 600 merit points.

With the 340 merit points he had left, he has now surpassed the 1000 mark.

Now I should be able to buy quite a few things in the mall.

Thinking of this, his eyes lit up, and most of the drowsiness he had felt while traveling vanished instantly.

"Tiger Blood!"

"With tiger blood, I can condense a Lesser Pure Yang Body."

"Buy another powerful sword technique, just in case."

After a moment's thought, Chu Sheng suppressed his impulse and first went to find that important figure.

...

Inside the antique palace.

Yuan Hui was yawning listlessly. At his level, missions were becoming increasingly rare.

Even if there were more, they would be top-tier missions that exaggerate the world.

Just as he was about to find something to do, a line of small characters suddenly appeared on the mirror in front of him:

"Xiao Fang personally conveys: Senior, are you there? This junior has brought some small items with good fortune, hoping you can use them."

"Huh, this kid's pretty quick. He's already got new stock after just a few days?" Yuan Hui smiled slightly, and with a thought, the words he wanted to answer appeared on the Xuan Mirror.

"Prince Yuanhui: Kid, what's new here? Open the 'Spiritual Insight Channel' and I'll cover the cost. If it's useful, I guarantee you a high price."
