Chapter 155 Living Zombies
The warmth of life that Qiqi experiences is the effect of the light of life.
Under Gu Chen's operation, rich light of life was continuously injected into Qiqi's body, and began to improve Qiqi's physical condition.
If it were an ordinary person, if this level of vitality was injected into the body, all diseases would have been cured long ago.
But Qiqi can't do that.
Qiqi is a zombie, the living dead.
Moreover, after so many years, Qiqi's zombie body has become rigid to an unimaginable degree, and improvement must be gradual.
So Gu Chen frowned and continued to operate carefully.
The light representing vitality cannot be infused into Qiqi's body all at once.
It also has to fill Qiqi's whole body, nourish her limbs and bones, and improve every part of her body.
By the way, I also need to treat Qiqi’s broken arms.
The vitality consumed to improve each part of the body is different, and the nourishing methods are also different.
Therefore, it took Gu Chen a lot of effort to proceed step by step in this way.
In this way, five full minutes passed before Gu Chen had almost finished nourishing.
Realizing that he had done everything he could, Gu Chen put down his hand and stopped emitting light.
The moment he stopped, Paimeng, Hu Tao and Bai Zhu around him looked over expectantly.
Without responding to their expectant looks, Gu Chen continued to look at the expressionless and cute Qiqi.
Qiqi was still the same, standing there motionless, staring at Gu Chen without blinking.
Gu Chen leaned down slightly and asked Qiqi as gently as possible:
"Qiqi, how do you feel?"
Putting her finger on her lips, Qiqi thought seriously for a moment, then responded softly:
“It feels… warm.
I've never felt... so warm."
Gu Chen nodded:
“It’s just warm.
Zombies' bodies are inherently cold and temperatureless, but once they have enough vitality, they naturally become warm."
After finishing speaking, Gu Chen encouraged Qiqi:
"Qiqi, next, try moving your body around a bit, jumping around a bit, and see if you feel any discomfort."
She tilted her head slightly, and although she didn't know why Gu Chen made this request, Qiqi still did it.
Right in front of everyone, Qiqi jumped a few times and ran a few times.
However, it was these few jumps and runs that made Qiqi clearly feel the improvement in her body.
My body used to be very stiff, so stiff that Qiqi could feel the friction in my joints.
But now, it's different.
The body is so flexible and smooth.
Whether running, jumping, walking or stopping, everything feels very natural and free, and there is no longer the stiff and helpless feeling before.
This...this is...
The more Qiqi moved, the more surprised she became, and the brighter her eyes became.
Later on, without Gu Chen saying anything, Qiqi was already running around excitedly and exercising her body.
It’s just…even though Qiqi’s eyes were filled with surprise, her face didn’t show much expression, she was still as cute and silly as ever.
It can be seen that although there has been obvious improvement in large-scale body movements, Qiqi still finds it difficult to perform subtle movements such as changing facial expressions.
but it does not matter.
Cuteness is also one of Qiqi’s labels.
Even though she doesn’t have many expressions, Qiqi is still cute!
When Qiqi was running around, Bai Zhu finally couldn't help it and asked excitedly:
"Lord Gou Chenxing, is Qiqi...resurrected?"
Gu Chen shook his head:
“It’s still very early.
Qiqi's current state cannot be considered resurrection. She is still in a state between life and death, and her current race is still a zombie.
Through my life-hardening ability, her physical condition has greatly improved. It's no longer as stiff, and is basically the same as a living person's body."
When he said this, Gu Chen couldn't help but sigh:
"Ugh……
Actually, when I first used my life-solidifying ability to improve Qiqi's body, I thought of a question."
Paimon asked at the right time:
"what is the problem?"
"Is it really possible to restore Qiqi from a zombie to a fully alive person?
As we all know, zombies are extremely powerful, immortal, and have extremely strong combat power.
All of the above characteristics are reflected in Qiqi.
But what happens after Qiqi recovers?
She was afraid of death and bleeding.
Without such strong strength, the danger of going out to collect herbs will inevitably increase."
Hearing Gu Chen's concerns, Paimeng frowned:
“This concern is justified.
Indeed, strength is a factor that everyone has to worry about."
Walnut next to him couldn't help but ask:
"So, Qiqi is still a zombie?"
Gu Chen shook his head slightly.
"Not quite accurate, it should be a living zombie."
"Living zombies?" Walnut's eyes widened in disbelief. "How can there be living zombies?"
"How not?"
Gu Chen pointed at Qiqi, who was jumping around full of energy, and asked directly:
"Have you seen Qiqi's vitality? Have you felt the abundant vitality in Qiqi? Do you dare to say that Qiqi is not alive?"
Walnut's expression was a little awkward, and it was hard to put it into words:
“That’s… indeed.
If we hadn't known in advance that Qiqi was a zombie, looking at her behavior, she would obviously be no different from an ordinary child.
But zombies can’t be called alive…”
“That’s normal.
Now with my help and my intervention, all normal situations are no longer applicable. Qiqi is a living zombie.
Hmm... zombies with living bodies.
In this state, her body possesses abundant vitality, yet possesses the zombie's fearlessness and immense strength, effectively achieving the best of both worlds."
Gu Chen's explanation made Hu Tao fall into deep thought, and also made Bai Zhu keenly aware of something.
After a moment of hesitation, Bai Zhu continued to ask:
"Lord Gou Chenxing, what do you mean by a zombie with a living body?"
Shaking his head helplessly, Gu Chen said:
"What I mean is, Qiqi's body is fine now, but her soul... still hasn't recovered.
Why does Qiqi lack five senses, lose intellect, and have such a poor memory?
This is a manifestation of her soul being damaged.
The reason why the soul is missing is probably because Qiqi became a zombie when he died.
Or it could be said that the Ice God's Eye awakened at the moment of death.
Whether it was becoming a zombie or awakening the Ice God's Eye, it protected Qiqi to a certain extent and prevented Qiqi from dying completely.
But it put Qiqi between life and death.
However, that is only physical protection.
As for the soul, since Qiqi is indeed dead, part of her soul has returned to the earth veins, and the remaining soul is naturally in a defective state.
Ugh……
To be honest, soul-related issues are really tricky."
