Chapter 237: Chapter 236 I Really Am a Zombie
"Second Miss, what lies am I spreading? It’s only natural for men to like women; there were so many beauties there, of course, I had to chat a bit more." Lin Tian said.
"Why do you need to hide your real thoughts?" the little girl persisted, smiling, "Everyone starts as a pure angel, only gradually becoming more complex. Although those trainees admire and adore the strong, their thoughts are straightforward. Compared to complex thoughts and scheming, don’t you find them adorable? Compared to them, we could never live that simply, could we? Being with them, you can see your former self in them."
The little girl’s unexpected reasoning quieted the car, and Lin Tian turned to look at this overly clever little girl, unable to help but admire her, "Those eyes of yours are even more powerful than my X-ray vision, seeing through so many things."
"Second Miss, if everyone is an angel, then I’d say you are the smartest angel." Lin Tian genuinely praised.
"Of course, our Sister Xiao isn’t just a smart angel, but also a charming angel, and she’s the top scholar and the first school beauty at school," Zhang Lingyu proudly said, sounding as if she was talking about herself.
"Zhang Lingyu, are you trying to say you and the Second Miss are joint top?" Lin Tian glanced at the proud Zhang Lingyu through the rearview mirror and chuckled.
Zhang Lingyu glanced at him and said, "Sister Xiao is a charming angel, and I see you as a fallen angel."
You, Zhang Lingyu, always arguing with me; what does my flirting with beauties have to do with you, always holding on to it, way too petty. Lin Tian was about to retort when Xiao Manxuan cut in, "Sister Yu, ease up a bit, will you? Also, Lin Tian, you should give way to the beautiful lady."
"Second Miss, I was just correcting her statement. I am not some fallen angel." Lin Tian said seriously after driving onto the road.
Zhang Lingyu was still not convinced and snorted, "With those sleazy gestures you made while signing on that girl’s body, you still have the nerve to say you aren’t a fallen angel, huh!"
This time Lin Tian didn’t argue back but gave a sly smile, looking towards the three beauties and spoke in a low voice, as if telling a horror story, "Let me tell you a secret, I actually am a zombie."
The car went silent, when suddenly Xiao Manxuan screamed in shock, startling everyone. Despite that, Lin Tian remained composed and said indifferently, "Scared you, didn’t I, Second Miss?"
"Scared my foot, why pretend to be a zombie, you’re not even watching the road, we almost hit the car next to us, scared me to death!" Xiao Manxuan hit her chest with her hand, visibly shaken.
No way, you don’t believe me even when I’m serious? Lin Tian was speechless, no one believes the truth, what kind of justice is that?
Ning Luoxi just glanced at him calmly and continued to rest with her eyes closed, leaving Lin Tian confused. She was supposed to be a berserk warrior, so why was she so calm, barely speaking a word? Could this be the legendary ’quiet as a virgin, swift as escaping rabbit’?
Zhang Lingyu then hummed, "If you’re a zombie, then I’m a Heavenly Master, let’s see how I’ll take care of you!"
Hehe, I have encountered a Heavenly Master, but it’s not you. The Heavenly Master would need real skill to deal with me, Lin Tian thought dismissively.
"Sister Yu, zombies are also transformed from humans. Since there are good and bad people, there surely must be good and bad zombies too. Why must we eliminate them?" Xiao Manxuan asked, puzzled.
This viewpoint was indeed peculiar. To actually think about zombies this way, Lin Tian couldn’t help but deeply look at this kind-hearted little girl. Being a zombie himself, he knew all too well that Heavenly Masters and zombies were natural sworn enemies destined by fate. Once they met, both sides would inevitably clash violently; how could there possibly be the peaceful coexistence she spoke of?
"Sister Xiao, you don’t understand zombies," Zhang Lingyu said seriously, her eyes looking forward, her voice ethereal. "Zombies do not age, do not die, are indestructible, do not belong to the five elements, exist outside of the six realms, and feed on human blood. This is no longer a simple matter of right and wrong."
"What you’re saying, I don’t understand, but my mom once said something. She said that the scariest thing in the world is not ghost gods but the human heart. People with evil and twisted hearts could be more harmful than zombies, right? And such people are much more numerous than zombies. Zombies feed on blood for survival, whereas these people might kill many others just for a tiny bit of personal desire. I think whether someone is good or bad depends on their actions, not what they inherently are," the little girl spoke at length, still focused on the idea of right and wrong.
Lin Tian felt helpless about her naivety. The existence of sworn enemies in this world wasn’t due to issues of right or wrong. Cats eat mice; who is good and who is bad? Humans will naturally favor cats that benefit them, and deem mice harmful. Perhaps only Heaven could truly be impartial.
The world is unkind, treating all beings as mere straw dogs; Heaven and Earth do not judge the good or bad, treating all beings as equally as sacrificial straw dogs.
"Sister Xiao, maybe you are right, perhaps zombies can be good or bad," Zhang Lingyu’s gaze was hazy, as if reminiscing something.
"Hey, you two philosophers, stop fretting over this. We’ve been out all day; aren’t you tired? I was just mentioning it; no need to delve so deep. Let’s just go back and eat. You beauties might want to lose weight, but I sure don’t, careful not to diet away your chest," Lin Tian saw their discussion drifting further and quickly pulled them back.
Here I am, a genuine solid zombie, and you’re discussing this; at least respect the feelings of a zombie, Lin Tian felt very dissatisfied.
"Go on, you big pervert, always thinking about all this messy stuff." Both women rolled their eyes at Lin Tian together. They had just been arguing, but in a blink of an eye, they were back on the same side, their minds unbelievably quick to change.
Having successfully redirected the attention of the women, Lin Tian didn’t care about the double dose of rolling eyes anymore. Besides, a beauty giving a roll of the eyes is almost like sending a coquettish glance, so he might as well take it as a coquettish glance.
On the way back, Lin Tian’s phone rang, displaying a call from Fang Ming on the car screen. He put on a Bluetooth headset and answered the call.
"Xiao Tian, I won’t be free until after eight tonight; I need to prepare for a mock exam. Please continue to keep Xixi company for me. Ah, I feel so sorry for Xixi. It’s rare for her to visit, and I don’t have time to accompany her," Fang Ming’s voice came through, filled with regret and self-reproach.
"Aunt Fang, don’t worry, I will take good care of her. I think she will understand your difficulties." Lin Tian glanced at Ning Luoxi in the back seat, who still had her eyes closed.
But her long lashes fluttered slightly, a sign that her heart was not as calm as it appeared on the surface. Lin Tian felt powerless and could not blame Fang Ming.
Fang Ming had originally left home heartbroken to become a temporary teacher at Xikou City High School, but she still put all her effort into educating her students. How could anyone blame such a dedicated teacher?
