Chu Ming let out a cold sneer at the crew-cut man's words. Bastards like him only knew how to bully the weak and fear the strong. If he backed down today, these people would surely take a mile if given an inch, and there was no telling how much trouble would follow. The only way forward was to beat them until they feared him, to beat them into absolute submission.
But the Minotaurs were simply too few in number, making it impossible to conquer the entire snowfield with just this single clan.
The head of the Zhou family nodded and said, "He must die... When the time comes, I will place the Soul-Fixing Pearl in the center of our Zhou family's array to lure him in."
Pei Jinyuan rambled on. Feeling that middle-aged men simply talked too much, Mei Yulang found it awkward to refute him. After all, the man's words were meant as a well-intentioned warning.
"I think once the black spots on our skin disappear, the skeleton will stop moving," Yun Chu said. "It won't chase us anymore because it needs to return to the stone chamber before it ceases to move."

The sound of rotors reached He Yixing's ears. He looked up into the distance and saw two heavy helicopters flying toward them. One of the helicopters, carrying a shipping container, hovered over an open area. The rocket launchers mounted on its racks fired in unison, blowing the zombies on the street into shreds of flesh.

"Erniu, you get up too," Lady Zhang said, tossing another wooden token to Erniu, who was kneeling on the ground. "Remember my words. I believe you can take good care of Baolang. Go to the accountant's office in a bit to get some meat, and have a good meal at home." Then, she slowly walked away.

"That's easy. In a few days, I'll go to Ding Yuan to register myself, listing my household under the Lu family of Jiuyuan. I'll take a Han name: Huang Gun, courtesy name Boyang! After all..."

Counting Zhang Cen and Song Jiang, there were thirty-eight leaders of Liangshan. By then, six of them would be taking up official posts, accounting for about one-sixth of their military strength. During Song Jiang's farewell, Shi Bin hid away in the pleasure quarters, nowhere to be found, and the others also kept their distance.
