Chapter 134 The Divine Child

 

That night, the survivors in the camp were nervous and on edge.

 

The sudden appearance of the tiger earlier scared the ordinary people into staying indoors and not daring to go out. And then someone even attacked Qi Jingchen...

 

It was only at that moment that these people recalled that it was the end of the world, where danger and death were common occurrences.

 

They were able to travel safely before, and it was all thanks to Qi Jingchen and the patrol soldiers blessed by him.

 

Many people felt uneasy.

 

The young man who was released by Shi Qing walked back to his settlement in the safe zone, and was stopped by an acquaintance: "Xiaofeng, you're back?"

 

The young man was a little dazed, staring at the woman in her thirties for a while before asking, "Ah?"

 

The woman saw that the once very clever young man was now in a daze and felt sorry for him, "What happened to your sister? Weren't you being held captive?"

 

He remained silent. Although he had been kept watched during the day, they had not done anything to him. He even had contact with the person who he suspected had harassed his sister...

 

That person named Yu Xuguang, even though he touched her head, seemed to really not have ill intentions towards his sister.

 

He didn't know whether Qi Jingchen was good or bad, but at least Qi Jingchen had not harmed him. It was the Zhao Shu he had trusted, who had coaxed him into doubting Qi Jingchen, by saying bad things about him in front of him. 

 

But he has not cared about his life or death.

 

His beloved sister had disappeared, and it was likely due to his gullibility. This gave the young man a feeling of despair.

 

At this moment, other people came over, looking at him curiously.

 

It was only then that the young man snapped back to reality and suddenly asked, "How did my sister run away that day?"

 

"We don't know. She seemed to want to go out and look for food with you," someone replied.

 

"We didn't pay attention to her at the time and she disappeared in the blink of an eye. Who took her?" another person asked.

 

"It should have been the tiger," the young man said.

 

So the reason why someone disappeared in the camp was because of that tiger? Why didn't anyone explain?

 

These people were all a little confused and some of them even felt guilty, thinking that they had talked too much during the day. However, they also felt that this was related to Qi Jingchen and the others not explaining...

 

They had never seen that tiger before, so it was normal for them to speculate.

 

No matter what everyone was thinking, the night soon passed.

 

Morning came, and the people in the camp packed their bags and waited for the team to set off, but the team didn't move...what was going on?

 

"I'm going to sleep in today." Qi Jingchen pushed away Nie Yi's face with his own. He had gotten up in the middle of the night to catch the tiger, and had even "deeply" communicated with Nie Yi. He was very tired now and didn't want to get up.

 

Of course, more importantly, he also wanted to take the opportunity to fish out those who had benefited but weren't grateful. Thinking of this, Qi Jingchen pulled Nie Yi over again. Without opening his eyes, he leaned in to kiss Nie Yi on the face. "Today, I'll trouble you to play the villain."

 

Nie Yi was softened by Qi Jingchen's cute behavior and also kissed Qi Jingchen back before forcing himself to leave Qi Jingchen. Otherwise, he definitely wouldn't let Qi Jingchen sleep!

 

After cooling himself down into being sober on the ice wall he had created, Nie Yi made an opening and walked out.

 

The tiger was still lying on the ground outside, but the little monkey was sleeping soundly on a nearby cabinet.

 

Nie Yi found a knife and skinned the tiger. He dug out the wind system crystal nucleus from the tiger's brain and kept it, then sent the remaining meat to the kitchen.

 

The people who had disappeared before were most likely eaten by this tiger. 

 

At this point, many animals in the wilderness carried varying amounts of dark energy, and it was normal for this tiger to attack people in the camp, especially those who were not only not zombies, but had also absorbed light energy, aka Qi Jingchen's blessings. These mutated animals were attracted to the benefits of light energy.

 

"Little Nie, tiger meat is good meat, are you really not going to keep any?" People in the kitchen couldn't help asking. This was meat! They were all drooling.

 

"This tiger ate people," Nie Yi said. He didn't have a good impression of things that had eaten people. He would give the meat to the patrol soldiers so that they could strengthen their bodies.

 

"So what? And because it ate people, we should eat it even more," people in the kitchen said. This was meat! They were all so hungry and craving it.

Nie Yi didn't really care about these things. He had no pressure to eat everything, but when he thought about Qi Jingchen... it wouldn't hurt to eat a little less meat. 

 

"Anyway, don't leave any for me. When you distribute it, let the people below know where the meat came from," Nie Yi said, then left.

 

The kitchen chopped up and boiled the tiger. Their group now had over 70,000 people. They had picked out 5,000 patrol soldiers, so each person couldn't get a piece of meat, but they could each get a bowl of meat soup.

 

The tiger meat and bones were cooked until they were soft, and some potatoes were added to make the soup thicker... everyone who received a bowl of soup cherished it and ate it slowly.

 

What? This tiger had eaten people before? As long as it wasn't human flesh, there was no problem.

 

These soldiers received Qi Jingchen's blessings every day, and they admired Qi Jingchen from the bottom of their hearts. After eating, they went out to find food and supplies nearby. They had no objections to not traveling today, but they did not know that their behavior made the remaining people more worried. Everyone was guessing what Qi Jingchen and the others were doing.

 

Why did they suddenly stop moving?

 

At this time, Nie Yi finally spoke, "There were many rumors in the safe zone yesterday saying that Qi Jingchen's abilities were problematic, that he secretly tied up people and used their lives to practice his abilities."

 

Nie Yi spoke with a loudspeaker, and the speakers that were placed in various locations around the camp amplified his voice and could be heard throughout the entire camp.

 

"Since you all think this way, then don't follow us!" Nie Yi said coldly.

 

At first, when everyone heard Nie Yi speak, they didn't think much of it; some even waited for Nie Yi to explain. However, as they heard Nie Yi's later words, they were shocked.

 

What? Nie Yi was going to drive them away?

 

"People from the SF safe zone said this, people from the WQ safe zone said this, and people from the KH safe zone said this. We only brought you along originally because you requested it. Since you don't trust us, then let's just split up and not follow each other anymore!" Nie Yi said.

 

Upon hearing Qi Jingchen's words, those people were furious, and only now did they realize the benefits of following this team.

 

Moreover, it was only a rumor that someone had disappeared, and they had not even seen it. What's more, back then, more people died when they didn't follow this team!

 

They had doubts about Qi Jingchen yesterday, but they didn't dare to doubt him now, and wanted to think of a way to stay.

 

However, Nie Yi didn't care about them at all and left after saying those words.

 

Shi Shiqing saw this and smiled, then walked out.

 

Their living area was at the center of the camp, and there were many people outside who were concerned. "Is Qi Shao okay?"

 

"Yes, is Qi Shao okay? Those people yesterday were so despicable!"

 

"And those who spread the rumors weren't any good either."

 

These were all people who truly appreciated Qi Jingchen. Most of them were from the safe zone where Shi Kun originally lived. Yesterday, during the day, they had been angry at those who spread rumors. Yesterday evening, they had planned to come and protect Qi Jingchen, and this morning they had come to comfort him.

 

"I caught a turtle and I'm making soup for Qi Shao." A tall man who squeezed out from among the people said. Shi Shiqing recognized him as the one who had been treated by Qi Jingchen for a leg injury.

 

He was an ability user. After his leg injury had healed, he had joined the patrol team, and worked long hours every day. Even with this, he still had the energy to catch a turtle for Qi Jingchen. He was definitely very concerned about Qi Jingchen.

 

Seeing these people, Shi Shiqing felt better, but still followed what he had previously discussed with Nie Yi and Qi Jingchen, saying, "Although Qi Shao has abilities, he doesn't have any offensive power. It was already hard on him when he used up his ability every day for everyone's safety, and yesterday there was such an incident... he isn't feeling well today."

 

Upon hearing this, the people were immediately infuriated. Seeing the situation, Shi Shiqing added, "But don't worry too much. Qi Shao isn't seriously ill."

 

"We know." The man who brought the turtle said coldly and left, and the others followed him out.

 

Not long after these people left, news spread in the camp that Qi Jingchen was sick due to yesterday's rumors. Some people beat those who had said the most bad things about him.

 

Those who had been beaten had spoken ill of Qi Jingchen with righteous indignation previously. They insisted that Qi Jingchen was not a good person and that he could not possibly help them for no reason. There must be some secret that they couldn't reveal. But now, even if they were beaten, they dared not say anything.

 

They didn't want to be driven out.

 

The heads of several safe zones who were named by Nie Yi were also worried.

 

They had been dissatisfied, because after joining Qi Jingchen's team, someone was always telling their subordinates about how good Qi Jingchen was. Previously, when their own subordinates spoke ill of Qi Jingchen, they didn't stop them.

 

In their eyes, Qi Jingchen was a very gentle person who was willing to help others for free. He was a truly kind person. Even if he got angry, he wouldn't do anything to them. However... Nie Yi was actually going to drive them away.

 

"We definitely can't leave. But is there any way we can stay?" 

 

"That Nie Yi doesn't seem easy to talk to... What if we tie up those who spoke ill of him and send them to Qi Jingchen as an apology?” Feng Xun suggested.

 

Feng Xun was hesitating when a young man in his twenties suddenly rushed in. The young man had thick eyebrows and big eyes, similar to Feng Xun. As soon as he came in, he glanced discontentedly at Feng Xun and said, "Dad, how could you let those people speak ill of young master Qi? Young master Qi has helped us so much!"

 

Seeing his own son worshiping Qi Jingchen like that, Feng Xun felt a little heartbroken. "Although those rumors were unfair to young master Qi, you can't talk to your own father like that?"

 

"Dad, I'm doing this for all of us! Now that there are zombies outside, I'm afraid only young master Qi can lead us to defeat them!" The young man argued.

 

"What's the point? They are driving us away now. What else can we do?" Feng Xun felt a little annoyed seeing his son admire Qi Jingchen so much.

 

"We can go apologize to Qi Jingchen?" the young man suggested. But as soon as he spoke, exclamations were heard outside. After they went out, they found out that someone had turned into a zombie.

 

This kind of thing was not uncommon, but it had rarely happened these days, so everyone didn't react immediately.

 

"How could someone suddenly turn into a zombie?" Feng Xun asked frowningly as he watched someone killing the zombie.

 

"We don't know." The one who killed the zombie said.

 

"Did he eat something unclean?" Feng Xun asked again.

 

"He brought back some soybeans from outside and ate them fried. I saw that the beans seemed not so good, but he said he'd eaten them before without any problem." A person who had a good relationship with the one who had turned into a zombie said.

 

"Although he didn't turn into a zombie before, when young master Qi blessed him, he told him not to eat indiscriminately." Another person added.

 

"..."

 

As they heard what the person said, everyone present fell silent. If the beans the guy ate were problematic, then that meant that he only didn't turn into a zombie before because Qi Jingchen had blessed him…

 

Qi Jingchen's blessing was so useful, yet they had had evil thoughts and made assumptions about him. It was really unacceptable.

 

"I'm injured." Just then, someone exclaimed. Looking over, they found that one of the people who had just fought with the zombie had his hand scratched by the zombie.

 

"I'm not a person with abilities. Will I turn into a zombie?" the man asked, his eyes full of panic, feeling that there was something wrong with his body.

 

"Go find young master Qi!" Feng Xun's son immediately said.

 

Feng Xun nodded. By begging, they could observe Qi Jingchen's attitude, to see if he really didn't plan to care about them anymore.

 

The group soon arrived near Qi Jingchen's residence but was stopped by Nie Yi. "Stop. What do you want to do?"

 

"He was scratched by a zombie. Can young master Qi take a look at him?" Feng Xun's son asked. "Nie Yi, please. We're begging you."

 

"Jingchen is resting!" Nie Yi said. "People injured by the tiger yesterday haven't received treatment yet. Why should he get special treatment?"

 

Nie Yi was familiar with most of the people who believed in Qi Jingchen, but he had never seen this person who was about to turn into a zombie.

 

Nie Yi was always cold when talking to others. At this moment, his imposing manner was even more on display, making the others feel somewhat helpless. Feng Xun was suppressed by Nie Yi's manner and felt embarrassed. His son was also ashamed and couldn't say anything. Just then, Yu Xuguang came running out from the side, "You're all bad guys. Bad people will turn into zombies!"

 

After hearing Yu Xuguang’s words, Feng Xun blushed at first and then became scared. Being injured by a zombie accidentally was too normal in this apocalypse. If Qi Jingchen were here, they could still be saved. But what if they left Qi Jingchen?

 

Feng Xun broke out in a cold sweat.

 

"I'll save him." Qi Jingchen at this time walked out from inside. He was wearing a simple white robe, without any decorations or sacred text, but everyone present somehow still felt that they could trust him and calmed down.

 

"But if you have objections to me, you'll have to take care of yourselves in the future."

 

While speaking, Qi Jingchen threw a light ball onto the half zombified person.

 

The half-zombified person slowly began to return to normal, and finally knelt in front of Qi Jingchen, "Thank you. It was wrong. I am so sorry..."

 

Yesterday, he had also doubted Qi Jingchen. But looking at Qi Jingchen's appearance now and feeling the bright energy enter his body, he suddenly understood why so many people would believe in Qi Jingchen.

 

"Son of god, I was wrong before." The person called out, subconsciously using the name he had previously heard to address Qi Jingchen.

 

People in the safe area where Shi Kun was located had heard of dark religious cults and knew that there was such a Saintess in the dark religious cult. Later, when people saw Qi Jingchen, some people privately called him the son of god.

 

This name was gradually accepted by more and more people, but no one called him that in front of Qi Jingchen.

 

"Son of god?" Qi Jingchen repeated the phrase, and suddenly felt that the title was not bad.

 

"Big Brother!" Just at this moment, Qian An appeared beside Qi Jingchen out of nowhere, holding Xiaomao.
