"Hell has no doors, now it depends on you."
The underworld isn't a place where anyone can come and go as they please.
As they say, "Hell has no doors; once inside, you can't just leave."
When White Route is sealed as an ordinary person, he loses the right to leave the underworld.
Without the help of others, he will never be able to leave here in this life.
"Don't look at me, I can't do it! The Sixth Prince now carries the power of divine punishment. If I touch him, I'll suffer too, just like an ordinary person would get shocked!"
As Zhou Yao's gaze fell on You Shiyu, You Shiyu immediately shook his head and waved his hand.
"No, it's all my job to do. What are you here for?"
Zhou Yao blinked.
Bai Lu also looked at You Shiyu with curiosity.
"Um...this...that..."
You Shiyu scratched his head awkwardly.
In this way, it seems like I really am pretty useless.
"Wait a moment!"
After a moment of silence, Zhou Yao helplessly helped Bai Lu to his feet. But after just two steps, Zhou Yao suddenly shouted to stop.
In the eyes of Bai Lu and You Shiyu, Zhou Yao casually threw Bai Lu aside and turned to walk towards the deeper parts of the house.
In Zhou Yao's vision, the room was filled with red lines and everywhere there were traces of celestial items.
Zhou Yao didn't have time to examine it carefully at this moment. No matter whether it's useful or not, as long as it's a celestial item, touch it first and see.
A series of prompts started ringing in his mind.
The book icon on Zhou Yao's arm was flashing continuously.
"Is this it? Am I going to live forever?"
The life expectancy prompt in his mind has already reached a terrifying number, giving Zhou Yao the feeling that he can't die at all.
The celestial punishment of lightning, just let it go as you wish!
It doesn't matter about the lifespan at all!
It took nearly half an hour to sweep everything inside the room, and Zhou Yao finally returned to Bai Lu and You Shiyu's side with renewed energy.
You Shiyu had no idea what Zhou Yao was doing.
Bai Lu, however, had guessed Zhou Yao's actions, and his expression immediately turned grim.
In Bai Lu's understanding, Zhou Yao's abilities were pure banditry, and she would take anything she wanted.
How did he manage to connect the channel to his own palace.
Even the Third Young Master's one would do!
With a heavy sense of failure, Bai Lu was once again helped up by Zhou Yao.
This time, Zhou Yao was all smiles and completely devoid of the miserable, downtrodden look from before.
When they returned to Bai Lu's 401 ward, You Shiyu immediately perked up.
"Who says I'm useless, watch and see!"
You Shiyu waved his wrist, brought his hands together, and let out a series of mysterious musical notes from his mouth.
The hole in the wall then vanished, as if it had never appeared.
"Little Zhou Yao, you can't go too far for now. Who knows when I might need to break the seal."
Bai Lu grabbed Zhou Yao's arm tightly. He was really afraid that Zhou Yao would suddenly leave.
Without Zhou Yao, where would he find someone to break the seal?
"Isn't this troublesome? I was even considering resigning!"
Zhou Yao also thought about this problem, making his thoughts of resigning have to be put aside again.
"Hey hey hey, you took quite a bit of things from me. I won't hold it against you; think of it as compensation for taking care of me these days."
Bai Lu looked at Zhou Yao and blinked.
Zhou Yao realized it as well.
Moreover, this mental hospital is filled with all sorts of ghosts and demons. Who knows, she might still be able to loot some more?
The life expectancy thing, who would mind having more?
Although that's what I think, when I open my mouth to say something, it turns out to be...
"All right, fine, I don't know if I owe you, but let me not resign first, okay?"
Zhou Yao assumed a posture of reluctantly enduring the pain.
This made Bai Lu roll his eyes repeatedly.
How had he not noticed before how thick-skinned this girl's face was?
"Be silent!"
Just as Bai Lu and Zhou Yao were looking at each other in mutual contempt, You Shiyu suddenly frowned.
Zhou Yao instinctively covered her mouth, and Bai Lu also immediately held his breath and concentrated.
The room immediately fell silent.
Shortly after, Zhou Yao saw a figure suddenly appear on the glass door of Room 401.
The shadow in the doorway surveyed the area for a long time and then listened intently for a while.
Just as Zhou Yao was about to burst, the shadow in the doorway finally gave up trying to investigate Room 401 and turned to leave.
"Phew!"
In the moment the shadow turned, Zhou Yao immediately let out a breath of relief.
Next second.
The shadow turned abruptly again, and its entire face was pressed against the glass door.
It's Zhang Fan!
Watching the familiar face on the glass, Zhou Yao's heart stopped for a moment.
Why is this guy lingering around the door of Bai Lu's ward?
Could he be from the celestial court or the underworld?
Although it's just a glass partition, Zhang Fan outside seems to have found nothing, and his eyes are all over the place, unable to focus.
Finally, after another moment of silence, Zhang Fan gave up the search and turned his shadow again.
This time, Zhou Yao was wiser. She only let go of her hands and breathed fresh air again until Zhang Fan's footsteps grew fainter and You Shiyu declared it safe.
"This ugly zombie is looking for something? Is he looking for you?"
Zhou Yao was just about to ask for the situation when You Shiyu had already locked eyes with Zhou Yao.
"Zombie!?"
Zhou Yao was stunned upon hearing that.
"Yeah, that's right, it's a zombie. That's why he has such sensitive hearing."
"He just heard your breath earlier, that's why he turned around and looked at you again."
You Shiyu nodded.
After You Shiyu's explanation, Zhou Yao finally knew.
This world, in addition to the five races of humans, immortals, ghosts, spirits, and demons...
There is also a species that has escaped the control of the Heavenly Way.
Zombies.
Zombies are a species where after a spirit dies, its soul cannot leave the body to become a ghost, and eventually gets digested within, allowing the body to develop new intelligence.
"There are many ways to create zombies. Special arrays or seals, various poisons that harm the soul, or even being bitten by other zombies."
"As long as the soul of the corpse doesn't leave, it will eventually turn into a zombie."
Bai Lu also added something on the side.
"Zombie... it's actually a zombie, this is too absurd. Shouldn't this be the world of immortals and deities? How can immortals and deities allow the existence of zombies?"
Zhou Yao felt that her worldview was shattered again.
This world always seems to bring her new surprises.
I haven't heard about zombies in the world of the Western Journey.
What basis does this thing have for existing?
"Huh? You don't know that your president is a zombie? This old thing's age is at least a hundred thousand years, which is almost as long as my father's."
"Otherwise, how could this mental hospital exist for so long? How could I, as a prince, hide here?"
Bai Lu looked at Zhou Yao in astonishment.
Zhou Yao stood there completely dumbfounded.
The president is a zombie!
The president is actually a zombie!
What about the head nurse? Could she also be one?
