nHow could my Shanshan die?

nSu Shanshan, you were the one who asked me ifI wanted to marry you. How

ncould you go back on your word? You can’t do this. You can’t die without my

npermission.

n“She won’t die”

n“Won’t die”

n“No..”

nGu Jincheng kept mumbling, his hands digging the ground mechanically. There

nwere deep wounds on his fingers, and he seemed to be out of his mind.

nHis body suddenly stiffened as blood oozed from his ears. He fell to the ground,

nseemingly dead.

nAwoman walked over from afar and was shocked to see those people on the

nground. When she saw Gu Jincheng, her eyes flashed and she whisked himn

naway

nThe seconds ticked by. Gu Zhao was the first to wake up. He recalled everything

nthat had just happened and quickly looked around. There was no sign of. Su

nShanshan and Gu Jincheng. Feeling sorrowful, he woke Gu Ling and Fei Lan up.

nFortunately, the surrounding zombies had been attracted to City M and were

ndestroyed together. Otherwise, they would have been eaten by the zombies.

nThey knew that Su Shanshan was dead, but where had Gu Jincheng gone? The

nfew of them started to look for Gu jincheng’s whereabouts in the surrounding

narea.

nUnderground of City M.

nSu Shanshan lay on the ground. Blood was flowing out from the wound on her

nchest, soaking her entire body. She could barely breathe.

nShe slowly closed her lifeless eyes and dropped her hands on her stomach.

nThe moment she closed her eyes, the black and red rock on her chest glowed

nwith a strange blue light as it sucked her blood.

nEven the cinnabar mole on her heart was dominated by the rock. The stream of

nspiritual spring water flowed out of the mole and was absorbed by the rock, but

na portion of it reached the wound in Su Shanshan’s heart.

nIn the blink of an eye, a month had passed.

nThe wounds on Su Shanshan’s body were almost healed by the spiritual spring

nwater. The rock on her chest had stopped absorbing her blood, leaving only a

nsteady stream of spiritual spring water.

nSu Shanshan’s fingers moved suddenly, and her dead eyes quivered. A second

nlater they opened.

nShe was still a little confused when she woke up. Looking at the block of black

nsoil above her head, she blinked and became aware of the situation.

nShe reached for her chest. The gaping hole there had disappeared without

nleaving any scar.

nCould I have been rebom again? she wondered.

nThe thought had barely crossed her mind when she dismissed it. She stood up.

nThere wasa sound of something falling to the ground. She looked down. It was

nthe extraterrestrial meteorite she had obtained not long ago.

nShe bent down to pick it up and felt a little dizzy, as if she was hungry. She

ntouched her empty stomach, which was rumbling, and took out a bag of bread

nfrom her space. As she ate, she observed her surroundings

nThis place seemed to be a cave, but there was no light around. She was not

nsure. The environment was very humid, as if she was underground.

nUnderground?

nShe remembered that before she lost consciousness, she did land in a crack in

nthe ground. She had been swallowed up with City M and had recovered from

nher wounds for some reason. That was why she did not die.

nShe was mulling over her current situation when she felt as if she had stepped

non something. The ground here was uneven, and every step she took would

ncause the ground to creak. She used her foot to trace the thing on the ground. It

nhard and long object. It felt thin. What is it? she wondered.

nShe moved her feet and felt around with her hands as she walked forward. The

nsurrounding stone walls were densely covered with plants that seemed like

nvines. She felt something smooth and sticky under her hand. She placed her

nhand under her nose and sniffed. There was a pungent smell.

nAt that moment, she stepped on something. It was round. This feeling, this

nhardness, this shape-Su Shanshan instantly understood what it was. She

nturned pale and recoiled in horror. This ground was filled with bones. What she

nhad just stepped on was a human skull.

nThe realization made her scalp tingle. This cave was actually formed by bones

nstacked together. She did not dare to walk around casually, but this place was

ndark, and she could not find an exit even if she wanted to.
