　　”Bang！”
　　Suddenly a gunshot rang out.
　　Long Ye had just got out of the car. The moment he heard the gunshot, he instinctively reached for his waist, wanting to draw his sidearm.
However, the next second, he felt that all the hairs on his body stood on end and was shrouded by a shadow of death.
　　Looking up, he found that a bullet had already flown in front of him.
　　The distance was less than half a meter.
　　There was simply no time to avoid it.
　　“It’s over！ I never thought I would die here today！”
　　Long Ye closed his eyes resignedly.
　　He could even imagine that in less than a second, the bullet would penetrate his heart, and then, he would fall in a pool of blood and stop breathing.
　　However, Long Ye waited for a long time and didn’t feel the slightest pain.
　　“Could this be the feeling of death？ Not even being able to feel pain？”
　　Long Ye opened his eyes and found a figure standing in front of him. It was Ye Qiu！
　　“Pa——”
　　Suddenly, Tang Fei slapped Long Ye hard on the face and shouted, “Damn it, are you stupid？ If it weren’t for Ye Qiu just now, you would have been dead for sure.”
　　“I’m not dead？” Long Ye was still a little dazed.
　　“Dead your head！ It was Ye Qiu who saved you！” Tang Fei said angrily.
　　If it weren’t for Ye Qiu’s timely action just now, then Long Ye would have been dead for sure. At that time, not only would Tang Fei have lost his brother painfully, but also would have no face to face Long Ye’s family.
　　Long Ye was stunned for a moment, then pinched himself hard and gasped in pain. It was not until then that he was sure that he was really still alive.
　　“Ye, Ye Qiu, it was you who saved me？” Long Ye asked hesitantly.
　　He couldn’t figure out that just now the bullet was less than half a meter away from him, while Ye Qiu was several meters away from him. How did Ye Qiu save him？
　　Ye Qiu turned around, faced Long Ye, and spread out his palm.
　　Long Ye then saw that there was a three-centimeter-long bullet in Ye Qiu’s palm, shining brightly under the sun.
　　Long Ye’s complexion changed drastically： “You, you caught the bullet with your palm？”
　　”Otherwise？” Ye Qiu smiled slightly.
　　Suddenly, a monstrous wave surged in Long Ye’s heart. He actually caught the bullet with his palm. Is this still a human？
　　Long Ye finally realized that Tang Fei didn’t lie to him. Ye Qiu is not simple and can save his life at a critical moment.
　　”Thank you.”
　　Long Ye sincerely apologized. If it weren’t for Ye Qiu just now, at this moment, he would already be on the way to the underworld.
　　”You’re welcome.”
　　While the several people were talking, the people of the special operations company quickly rushed up to draw a new cordon and then kept pulling the trigger towards the direction of the gobi.
　　”Tut　tut　tut…”
　　In the dense bullets, a figure appeared on the gobi. His face was dark and the veins on his forehead bulged. He was a living dead！
　　The moment Ye Qiu saw the living dead, his body swept forward and quickly stood beside the cordon to observe.
　　He noticed that hundreds of bullets hit the body of the living dead, hitting a series of sparks and then all bouncing off, as if the bullets were not hitting a human body but a bulletproof steel plate.
　　This scene was very terrifying.
　　I saw that living dead jumping several times on the gobi, running towards the distance and disappearing without a trace in a short while.
　　The speed was extremely fast.
　　Agile　in　action.
　　It doesn’t look like the reaction that a dead person should have at all！
　　“Sure enough, it’s a bit weird.”
　　Then, Ye Qiu looked up at the sky and quietly opened his celestial eye. Instantly, he saw the thick death energy.
　　Above the sky, the thick death energy was like impenetrable thick ink. This was more than ten times stronger than the death energy that Ye Qiu had seen above Mogan Village before.
　　That is to say, there are a lot of dead people here.
　　Thinking about it, with so many living dead people, if there is no death energy, it would be strange.
　　“What are you looking at？” Tang Fei asked curiously when he saw Ye Qiu staring at the sky.
　　“Nothing.” Ye Qiu withdrew his gaze and asked, “Where are those living dead people hiding？”
　　Tang Fei immediately looked at Long Ye and asked with his eyes.
　　“According to our preliminary investigation before, they should be hiding about two kilometers ahead. That place is a stretch of desert. At that time, the drone only detected five or six living dead people. Presumably, the other living dead people are also hiding nearby.”
　　Long Ye sighed and said, “But they are very vigilant and shot down the drone, so that we couldn’t investigate carefully.”
　　“If we could find their specific location, we could directly use a nuclear bomb to wipe them out.” Tang Fei said.
　　“The nuclear bomb can only be used as a last resort. After all, the purpose of our mission this time is to find out the reason for the appearance of the living dead people.”
　　Ye Qiu added, “Moreover, don’t we still have to find Professor Cao？ If a nuclear bomb goes off, even if Professor Cao is still alive, he will be reduced to ashes.”
　　”I think the possibility of Professor Cao being alive is not high.” Long Ye said.
　　”The Military God has ordered that we must find Professor Cao, alive or dead.” Tang Fei said, “Ye Qiu is right. We can’t use a nuclear bomb unless it’s a last resort. I didn’t think it through just now.”
　　”Old Tang, what should we do now？” Long Ye asked.
　　The others also looked at Tang Fei.
　　Because Tang Fei was the chief of staff of the Hades Palace, with the highest rank and also the leader of this mission.
　　After thinking for a while, Tang Fei said, “First of all, we still have to figure out the reason why those guys became living dead.”
　　”To find this out, we must go deep into the place where those living dead are hiding.” Long Ye said.
Seeing Ye Qiu lowering his head and thinking, Tang Fei asked, “Ye Qiu, what do you think?”
　　”I want to know one thing. How did the first living dead appear？” Ye Qiu asked.
　　Tang Fei replied, “The first living dead walked out of the gobi. It was that guy who bit the villagers and caused the villagers to become living dead.”
　　Ye Qiu then asked, “That is to say, the first living dead was not a villager, right？”
　　”No.” Long Ye said affirmatively, “I asked the surviving villagers. They said that the first living dead was a stranger and they had never seen him before.”
　　Ye Qiu’s eyes flickered for a moment.
　　“Do you have any thoughts？” Tang Fei asked.
　　Ye Qiu said： “To find out the reason, we still have to start with the living dead.”
　　“Do you have any good suggestions？” Tang Fei asked.
　　Ye Qiu said： “I want to catch a living dead and dissect it myself to see if I can find useful clues.”
　　“This is too risky.” Long Ye said： “Those living dead are not afraid of bullets, their bodies are very resistant to blows, and their strength and speed are not weak. Now they are hiding in the Gobi. If we go to catch them and are besieged, the consequences are unthinkable.”
　　Ye Qiu asked Long Ye rhetorically： “Do you have a better way？”
　　Long Ye was suddenly at a loss for words.
　　Tang Fei thought for a while and said to Ye Qiu： “Although the method you mentioned is risky, it is worth a try. Well, I will take a few people with you to catch the living dead.”
　　“No need, I will go alone！”
