Xu Lü's face was pale, and sweat had almost soaked through his clothes.
"Sister, I'm fine, I'll be better soon..."
Xu Qian sighed. Zombies could also get sick. What a sight to behold.
[System, what's going on with Xiao Ping?]
[Ding, the system cannot identify it, but the mission target Xiao Ping has a zombie physique. Please do not use potions.]
Hearing this, Xu Qian frowned slightly and asked, "Xiao Lü, were you like this before?"
Xu Lü closed his eyes and replied with a trembling voice, "Uh... it happens every night. I'll be fine if I bear with it for a while."
Xu Qian's eyes deepened. She took a towel and wiped the sweat from his forehead. Xu Lü was a zombie, and a vegetarian one at that.
Could it be that he hadn't eaten meat for a long time?
"Xiao Lü, when did you start like this?"
When she was with him before, he didn't seem to have this problem.
Xu Lü opened his eyes slightly, but his beautiful green eyes had dimmed considerably, lacking their usual spirit.
"Sister... it's been like this since I left you."
Xu Qian: "..."
So, it's my fault?
"Have you not eaten meat in a long time?"
Suddenly, Xu Lü's eyes widened slightly and he said anxiously, "Yes, yes, yes, I haven't eaten meat in a long time. I eat corn and sweet potatoes every day..."
Xu Qian was speechless. She slapped her forehead. As expected, he needed to eat meat.
"Let's leave here first. I'll cook meat for you later."
"Okay..."
Xu Qian drove the car further away. This time, she didn't stop by the hill. She chose to park in the woods, where there was at least something to provide cover.
After getting out of the car, Xu Qian took out mutated porcupine meat from her spatial storage and started butchering the pig with a cleaver she hadn't used in a while.
Xu Qian was quick and efficient. A whole roasted pig was soon ready.
Xu Qian tore off a pork leg and gave it to Xu Lü. After eating it, his complexion indeed improved a lot compared to before, but it was still very poor.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Xu Qian. She ran out of the car.
A dagger appeared in her hand. With a grim determination, she cut her finger and dripped blood onto the oil, then brushed the mutated pig with oil again.
Zombies only needed two things: blood and meat. It was either meat or blood, not far off.
Xu Lü was eating with relish when his nose twitched.
It smelled so good, what was it?
Xu Lü couldn't help but jump down from the cab. He leaned against the door and asked, "Sister, it smells so good. What are you roasting?"
Xu Qian was stunned. Wasn't this the same as what she had roasted earlier?
Only... she had added blood.
Xu Qian used her knife to shave off a slice of meat and handed it to him.
"Try it. I roasted it twice, it will definitely be more fragrant."
Xu Lü didn't care if it was hot, and put it directly into his mouth.
As soon as the meat entered his mouth, his green eyes widened.
"Sister, it's delicious! Delicious! You eat too."
Xu Qian had no interest in eating her own blood. She said faintly, "You eat it, I'm not hungry."
After he finished eating, Xu Qian saw that his spirits had recovered considerably, and she understood that he indeed needed human blood to stop the pain.
But she wondered how long it would last after one meal.
Xu Lü was in a very good mood. It was the first time he had eaten such delicious meat. He deeply regretted why he hadn't followed his sister before, and insisted on gnawing on raw corn and sweet potatoes every day.
Xu Qian silently turned her back, intending to put a band-aid on the wound.
Suddenly, she was lifted up and carefully placed on the cab.
"Sister, your hand..."
A sharp cut was on her fair fingertip, and it was still bleeding.
It looked extremely tempting.
A glint flashed in Xu Lü's eyes. He suppressed the urge to lick it and asked, "Sister, how did you get hurt?"
