Horror Camgirl - Ch. 76: The Commotion Caused by the Elixir
The host is handsome!
Host, I want to have babies with you!
Host, wait for me! I’ll take a helicopter to fight the zombies!
We fought our way from the entrance of the village to the end, and the first person we found was Qin Nancheng. He was stepping on the back of a zombie, holding its head and twisting it hard.
The crisp sound of bones cracking echoed as he calmly turned and walked towards us, saying, "Let’s continue."
Xia Qingyu and Huang Ruixi were together. Huang Ruixi was still weak but managed to conjure a one-foot-high earthen wall that tripped a zombie, giving Xia Qingyu the chance to chop off its head.
By this point, he was already bloodied and excitedly exclaimed, "This feels great! It’s been a long time since I’ve felt this good. Even better than playing zombie games!"
"Where’s Tang Xin?" I asked.
Everyone looked at each other, unsure where the young lady had gone. I felt a wave of frustration; these men were so unreliable, thinking this was just a game while losing a nineteen-year-old girl.
We had no choice but to search the village again. There were only seventy to eighty zombies that had died back then, all of the lowest level. Aside from being a bit quicker and tougher, they were nothing special.
Before long, we had killed all the zombies.
"I’ve lived for so many years and started practicing martial arts at five. Today is the first time I’ve killed this satisfyingly," Xia Qingyu said excitedly. "Host, call me next time there’s such a good event."
The muscles under my eyes twitched slightly. Men are like that; they have an innate inclination for slaughter.
"Let’s find Tang Xin first," I said.
At that moment, the branches of a tall Huangjue tree suddenly parted, and Tang Xin emerged from inside, pale-faced. "Host sister, save me."
As soon as she finished speaking, she fell from the tree.
Tang Mingli rushed over to catch her. Her back had five deep gashes, exposing the bone, and her flesh was blackened.
"The zombie poison has entered her heart," I frowned and said. "Moreover, the poisoning is severe."
If we didn’t use a Detoxifying Pill, Tang Xin would be dead within ten minutes.
I gritted my teeth, took out a pill, and stuffed it into her mouth. Soon, black gas began to rise from her back wound, and the blackened flesh gradually turned to a normal red.
Huh? What kind of elixir is this? The host always seems to have amazing things on hand.
Is this able to detoxify zombie poison? The effect is incredible, instantaneous.
Can the host sell me a few? I’ll pay any price; I’m not short on money.
Host, I’m from the Medicine King Valley, and we are willing to pay a high price for your Detoxifying Pill formula.
Hahaha, Medicine King Valley? You’ve got to be kidding, thinking this is some martial arts drama?
Tang Mingli stood by, watching coldly, and couldn’t help but frown.
Xia Qingyu hurriedly leaned in, smiling, "Host, look, I’m injured too. Can I have one as well?"
I handed them three simplified Detoxifying Pills, and they were both astonished after taking them.
I said, "Though the poison is resolved, the injury is severe. She needs to go to the hospital. This live stream is over."
Xia Qingyu and the others showed expressions of regret. I had him carry Tang Xin out of the mountains and called an ambulance. After paying the medical fees, Tang Mingli and I quietly left.
Just as we came out the back door, we suddenly saw Qin Nancheng standing at the entrance, a faint smile on his face. "Where are you two going?"
Tang Mingli shielded me behind him, his voice low, "What do you want?"
"Don’t be nervous," Qin Nancheng said. "I just want to make a deal with the host. How many Detoxifying Pills and vitality-restoring pills do you have? I’ll take them all, and you can set any price."
Tang Mingli looked at me. After all, the elixirs were mine, so it depended on my decision.
I was silent for a moment before saying, "Two of each. Fifty thousand each."
"Is that all you have?" He seemed reluctant to give up.
"That’s all," I replied expressionlessly. "Since it’s a good thing, how could I have as many as I want like cabbage?"
"Okay, I’ll take them all. Please give me your card number, and I’ll transfer the money right away," Qin Nancheng said.
I furrowed my brow. I would have to inadvertently revealed my identity by giving him my bank card number.
Tang Mingli provided him with a card number, and as he operated his phone, he gave him a meaningful glance. "A Swiss bank account, you two are quite cautious."
As the money was exchanged for goods, Tang Mingli told me to wait for the car. After I left, he coldly warned Qin Nancheng, "Don’t have any ideas about her, or you’ll bear the consequences."
Qin Nancheng chuckled, "How long do you think you can protect her? You’re just a Dark Strength Martial Artist."
Tang Mingli scoffed, "You underestimate her. It’s not just me protecting her. If you don’t believe it, you can try. But by then, you and the Qin family behind you will probably have a bad end."
A hint of deep thought flickered in Qin Nancheng's eyes.
A black sedan slowly stopped in front of me, driven by a middle-aged man who seemed to have been Tang Mingli's driver in the past.
After getting into the car, Tang Mingli said seriously, "Jun Yao, you shouldn’t have taken out the elixirs, especially the Detoxifying Pill. We don’t know how many people are coming towards Shan City right now."
I smiled and said, "Even if I didn’t take them out, would no one be watching me? My live stream room is so strange; I see ghosts every time I stream. I’ve long been targeted by these people."
Tang Mingli sighed, shaking his head. "Before, they were just paying attention to you; they didn’t have the qualifications to take action. It’s different now. You have Detoxifying Pills and vitality-restoring pills, and their effects are very good. Which aristocratic family wouldn’t want to get their hands on them?"
I helplessly said, "If I don’t use them, I’ll probably die in the live stream sooner or later. Even if I secretly take the pills to recover quickly, won’t they be suspicious?"
This was a deadlock. Now that I had become a female streamer and walked this path, there was no way to quietly amass wealth.
Tang Mingli understood this point as well. He sighed softly, opening h pISalm to cover my hand, saying quietly, "Don’t worry. I will do my utmost to protect you."
I hesitated for a moment, wanting to pull my hand back, but he gripped it tightly, exuding an unfamiliar strength, then reached out and pulled me into his embrace.
I struggled a bit, and he said, "Don’t move."
I felt a bit angry. Although I trusted him, being so close to a man made me uncomfortable.
For twenty years, I had suffered from ridicule and disdain from men, leaving me with a sense of rejection and fear towards them.
"Let me hold you for a moment," he said above my head, "just for a moment."
I stopped moving, allowing him to hold me, but my body tensed up, feeling very uneasy.
After a long while, he finally let me go, gently saying, "You don’t have to worry too much. There are people looking out for you. They won’t dare to openly make a move against you, but some small actions are inevitable."
I nodded, lowering my head to hide my tomato-red face.
Once home, I began to tally the rewards from this stream. Perhaps because the live stream had lasted a long time, this time I actually made double the amount compared to last time.
Two million!
This money is easy to earn.
I noticed that Black Rock TV had issued an announcement stating that the crown had failed to satisfy the audience's enthusiasm, so they were introducing silver crowns, gold crowns, and diamond crowns.
The silver crown costs ten thousand, the gold crown fifty thousand, and the diamond crown a hundred thousand.
A hundred thousand? Is there really someone willing to splurge so much on a streamer?
I looked at the reward leaderboard, and indeed there was someone!
This wealthy viewer was named Xia Men Laoda, and after reading his comments, I realized he was Xia Qingyu’s older brother. He had initially wanted to settle the score with me after seeing me beat his brother but later realized he had wrongly accused me. Therefore, he rewarded me with one hundred crowns as an apology.
A wealthy person is a wealthy person; a hundred crowns as an apology is quite generous.
I directly transferred the rewards to my account. Although Black Rock TV had my information, they should have received a warning not to disclose it.
Tang Mingli said there were people looking out for me, but who could it be?
Could it be True Lord Zhengyang and his group?
Forget it; I won’t think about it. If it’s good, it’s good; if it’s bad, I can’t escape it. What’s meant to come will come, so worrying is useless.
I pushed the matter to the back of my mind and continued my cultivation. After cultivating for a day and night, I suddenly felt a warmth in my Dantian, and a surge of spiritual energy overflowed; I had actually broken through to the first level intermediate!
It hadn’t even been half a month since my last level-up. Even I was stunned.
As long as I could break through to the second level, I could release my spiritual energy and use the technique that Cultivation Jiu Lingzi had given me.
Suddenly, I felt that my future was incredibly bright.
Afterward, Xiao Lin called me, informing me that the mountain village had been taken over by the Special Department to clean up the aftermath. He subtly asked if I had discovered any treasures, but I naturally pretended to be clueless.
He told me that there really was a wealthy person who had come in a helicopter to fight the zombies, but they had been stopped.
These wealthy individuals are truly insane; it seems I can’t disclose the exact location of my live streams anymore, or I might draw an audience to the scene. The yang energy is too heavy, and the ghosts would have already scared off.
"Madam Yuan, our branch minister would like to invite you for tea. Do you have time?" Xiao Lin asked cautiously.
I pondered for a moment and said, "The minister has invited me; how could I refuse? When?"
Xiao Lin breathed a sigh of relief. "Now works; I’ll pick you up right away."
He immediately drove to fetch me, taking me to a tea house in the city center.
The tea house was elegantly decorated, exuding an ancient charm, and behind the beaded curtains, a beautiful woman dressed in traditional attire played the guqin.
Xiao Lin opened the door to a private room and said, "Our minister is waiting for you inside. Please."
I walked slowly in and saw a tall young man seated behind a wooden table. He looked to be in his twenties, dressed casually, and in front of him was a set of purple clay tea utensils as he brewed tea.
His movements were graceful, his appearance handsome, and he carried an air of scholarly elegance, looking like a painting from a distance.
This was Hu Qingyu, the minister of the Shan City branch of the Special Department.
