　　Zombies？
　　Hearing these two words, Ye Qiu also realized that this trip to the Northwest might not be simple.
　　“We also found Taoist priests who were proficient in talismans. But strangely, their talismans had no effect on those corpse-transformed guys.”
　　“Moreover, those deceased, after corpse transformation, were not afraid of sunlight, and they also came out to move during the day.”
　　“The scariest thing is that their bodies have become extremely hard, and bullets can’t penetrate them.”
　　“Therefore, they are called living dead.”
　　Ye Qiu asked, “So what is our specific task？”
　　“There are three things in total.” Tang Fei said, “First, find out the cause of the incident.”
　　“Second, deal with those living dead and completely eliminate them.”
　　“Third, find Professor Cao.”
　　“Professor Cao？” Ye Qiu looked confused.
　　Tang Fei explained, “To thoroughly investigate those living dead, the Underworld Palace sent a biologist to investigate, and the team was led by Professor Cao from Shuimu University.”
　　“Professor Cao brought two students and disappeared when looking for water sources in the Gobi Desert.”
The Military God ordered us to be sure to find Professor Cao.
　　Ye Qiu immediately asked, “How old is Professor Cao？ How long has he been missing？”
　　“Professor Cao is seventy-one years old and has been missing for three days.”
　　After hearing Tang Fei’s words, Ye Qiu’s heart sank.
　　At such an old age and having been missing for three days, it seems that the situation is very bad.
　　Tang Fei seemed to sense Ye Qiu’s thoughts and said, “I also suspect that the possibility of Professor Cao’s survival is very low, but the Military God has ordered that in any case, we must find Professor Cao, alive or dead.”
　　“Understood.” Ye Qiu then asked, “Are there only the two of us for this mission？”
　　“Of　course　not.”
　　Tang Fei said, “Gu Feng and Yang Qi, who are stationed in Jiangzhou by the Underworld Palace, will carry out the mission with us.”
　　“Besides, the Military God has called Longhu Mountain and hopes that the Long-browed True Man can assist us. But the feedback from Longhu Mountain is that the Long-browed True Man is in seclusion and it is not clear when he will come out.”
　　“In addition, the Northwest Military Region has dispatched a company of troops to be at our disposal.”
　　Ye Qiu just felt a headache.
　　Speaking of which, the only ones who can really carry out the mission are him, Tang Fei, Gu Feng, and Yang Qi, a total of four people.
　　And the people from the Northwest Military Region can only assist.
　　As for the Long-browed True Man, that old thing is unreliable and it seems that we can’t count on him.
　　“Before leaving, the Military God ordered that at necessary times, we can spare no expense.” Tang Fei said： “If manpower cannot eliminate those living dead, then directly use nuclear bombs.”
　　“Even so, we still have to be more careful.”
　　“I always feel that the appearance of the living dead is not a normal phenomenon.”
　　Nonsense！
　　People are dead and still running around, biting people. Can this be a normal phenomenon？
　　“Regarding the living dead, have the intelligence personnel of the Hades Palace made any analysis？”
　　Ye Qiu knew that the Hades Palace had a powerful intelligence system, which gathered top-notch intelligence personnel. For each mission, they would make corresponding analysis and risk assessment in advance.
Tang Fei shook his head and said: “This kind of situation has never been encountered before and there is no precedent to follow, so it is simply impossible to analyze.
　　“This is also the reason why the Military God ordered me to lead the team to the northwest in person.”
　　”Find out the reason, eliminate the living dead, and find Professor Cao. This is something we must accomplish.”
　　Ye Qiu asked again, “Can Diaochan support us？”
　　Tang Fei smiled bitterly and said, “The place where the living dead appeared is a small village on the northwest border. One side is against the primeval forest, and the other side is against the gobi desert. There is either no signal or the satellite cannot detect it. So, this time Diaochan can’t help us.”
　　”Understood.”
　　After Ye Qiu said this, he took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Qian Jinglan, saying that he was going out for a few days.
　　Then, he sent a message to Han Long, ordering Han Long to transfer Qianqian to another school.
　　Subsequently, he sent a message to Lao Xiang, saying that he couldn’t go back to the hospital to see patients in the next few days.
　　Then, he informed Lin Jingzhi that he had something to go out for.
　　After Ye Qiu sent these messages, he found Bai Bing’s phone number from the address book and pressed the dial button.
　　After a while, a voice came from the phone： “Sorry, the phone you dialed is turned off…”
　　Pa！
　　Ye Qiu put away his mobile phone.
　　In the past few days, no matter how busy Ye Qiu was, he would call Bai Bing every day, but the result was the same. Bai Bing’s mobile phone was turned off.
　　”What happened to Sister Bing after she returned to Beijing？”
　　”Why did she turn off her mobile phone？”
　　”Why didn’t she contact me either？”
　　Ye Qiu had a bad premonition in his heart.
　　He knew Bai Bing’s character. If there was no accident, Bai Bing would definitely not break off contact with him.
　　But what exactly happened to Sister Bing？
　　By the way, Tang Fei, do you know General Bai Jingyao？” Ye Qiu asked.”
　　Of course I know.” Tang Fei said, “During festivals, my grandfather would take me to visit General Bai. I went to the hospital to see him just two days ago.
　　Ye Qiu then said, “I heard that General Bai is very ill and is about to die. Is it true？”
　　Who did you hear that from？” Tang Fei asked rhetorically.”
　　Don’t worry about who I heard it from. Just tell me, is it true？” Ye Qiu pressed.”
　　General Bai is indeed very ill, but I heard from the experts in the hospital that he should still be able to hold on for some time, at most three to five years, at least one and a half to two years.
　　That is to say, General Bai will not die for the time being？
　　He probably won’t die for the time being.
　　Damn it！” Ye Qiu couldn’t help but curse.”
　　Tang Fei turned his head and glanced at Ye Qiu, his face was strange, and he asked, “What, do you have a feud with the Bai family and hope that General Bai will die soon？”
　　I don’t have a feud with Old Man Bai. I just have a mutual affection with his granddaughter.
　　Ye Qiu can now basically conclude that Bai Bing was tricked back to Beijing last time.
　　As for who tricked Bai Bing, whether it was Bai Yujing or General Bai, it is unknown.
　　General Bai’s granddaughter？” Tang Fei frowned and asked, “Do you mean Bai Bing？
　　Yes.” Ye Qiu nodded.”
　　Tang Fei’s expression became complicated. He looked at Ye Qiu and hesitated to speak.
　　“Do you know something？” Ye Qiu asked.
　　“I do know some things, but it’s not good news for you.” Tang Fei said, “As far as I know, the Bai family and the Pei family have become engaged, and moreover, Pei Jie and Bai Bing should hold their wedding in the near future.”
　　What？
　　Ye Qiu was stunned for a moment, and then asked, “Is their wedding date set？”
　　“I don’t know if the specific wedding date is set. Our family hasn’t received an invitation yet, but I heard my grandfather mention it in passing, saying that Bai Bing and Pei Jie are about to get married.”
　　Instantly, Ye Qiu’s expression was very ugly.
　　“Tang Fei, can I not go on this mission？ I want to go to the capital.”
