Chapter 55 The Zhang Family, the Zhang Family!
"Tying your hair up like this is called a ponytail. Tying it all the way back at the head is called a single ponytail, and tying it on both sides is called a double ponytail. Do you understand?"
Wang Sheng looked at Xun, whose hair he had tied into pigtails, and began to introduce her.
"It's also very convenient to move around like this, and my hair won't fly around."
Xun nodded blankly, reaching out to touch the sides of her head, and said:
"Oh, that seems so! You humans are amazing!"
After she finished speaking, she spun around in place:
"Do I look good like this?"
"......nice."
"Okay, if it looks good, you can keep it tied up like this from now on!"
Xun chuckled, her two canine teeth gleaming in the sunlight.
Wang Sheng shook his head helplessly, not responding to the conversation:
"Alright, I'm almost there."
He glanced at the locator; the distance was less than a kilometer.
"I can walk the rest of the way myself. You can go back now."
"Okay! Then come visit me often, and remember my name is Xun!"
The cricket immediately ran a few steps, then suddenly turned back:
"Human, will you really come back?"
Wang Sheng paused for a moment, then nodded:
"meeting."
Xun then smiled, tossing her pigtails as she ran off into the distance:
"Then I'll wait for you!"
whoosh-
She traversed the mountains and forests, disappearing from sight in an instant.
Wang Sheng stood there stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but sigh:
"Actually, for the werewolf tribe, being free from human interference is a blessing."
Fortunately, there were no resources worth coveting here, otherwise their fate would have been hard to predict.
Thinking it over, Wang Sheng prepared his attire again.
His original clothes had long been ruined by the battle, so he picked up a set of dead people's clothes that fit him fairly well and put them on.
But no matter how much I tidied up, it was no use. I hadn't showered for a month, and my clothes were all pickled and smelly. I could only wait until I got out of the house to deal with it.
He quickly arrived near that familiar crevice.
The fissure is exactly the same as last time, about the height of a person and half a meter wide. It is drifting slowly now. It is not in a period of turmoil and is very safe.
"Finally... I can go home."
Wang Sheng immediately stepped inside.

Zhou Yue filled out today's work report on the display screen, then put his hands behind his head and leaned back in his chair listlessly.
"This job is easy, but why can't we be on our phones at work? We might as well be neighborhood security guards!"
Since the great disaster that occurred a month ago when the rift led to the Origin Realm, almost all the people from the Boundary Exploration Management Company have been evacuated.
He and two other employees were left to take turns on duty, and the three of them lived in a simple temporary security booth, keeping watch at all times.
Just when Zhou Yue thought that today would be an ordinary and boring day like any other, he was surprised to find that...
One of the monitor's indicators suddenly flashed abnormal numbers and lights.
"Holy crap?! Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap?!"
Zhou Yue screamed in alarm, then quickly reacted, kicking open the door to the staff break room and shouting at the people inside:
"Get up quickly! Something's happened in the crevice! A living person has come out!"
A few minutes later.
Wang Sheng was confronted by several men who were carrying weapons and looked flustered.
If it weren't for the staff uniforms these people were wearing, he would have almost thought he was being robbed.
But since they're employees, things are easier to discuss.
"Why are you all so nervous? Oh, right, I remember I had to pay a deposit for this GPS tracker, right? Could you please refund it for me?"
After saying that, Wang Qi calmly handed over the Level 1 Martial Artist Certificate and the locator.
He also caught a glimpse of someone anxiously making a phone call behind him, which suggested that his survival through the rift was no small feat.
"Hiss... I hope there won't be a lot of trouble."
Wang Sheng's biggest wish right now is to go home; he has no desire to stay here and argue about anything.
Even if someone were to ask him questions, they would have to wait until he had reassured his parents that he was safe.
A traveler longs to return home; how can he be deterred by trivial matters?
Let's go back to Zhou Yue at this moment.
Despite his shock, he still helped Wang Sheng with the process of getting his deposit back.
That was a major disaster that even grandmasters couldn't solve!
How did this person manage to survive? No, is this person a human or a ghost? He had heard rumors that the martial artists inside the rift had turned into terrifying zombies and monsters.
Zhou Yue didn't dare to ask any more questions.
My colleague is making calls to the company and the martial arts association. As for the truth, we'll have to wait for an investigation from higher-ups.
Zhou Yue only needed to keep the other party calm and then work as usual according to company regulations.
Thinking it over, Zhou Yue quickly operated the terminal.
Then, he spoke somewhat awkwardly.
"Well... your locator number corresponds to a person named Gunmu, which doesn't match your martial arts registration information."
"Well......"
So, the locator is a unique number for each person?
Wang Sheng scratched his head:
"So that means I can't get a refund?"
Zhou Yue hesitated for a moment:
"Please wait a moment."
He continued operating the terminal, glancing at Wang Sheng's face from time to time, comparing it with the photo on the martial arts association's official website.
Hmm, the face and the person do match.
Zhou Yue felt much more at ease.
He continued working on it and quickly found the information.
"The system shows that someone found your locator a month ago, and the locator has been put into the company's inventory."
Wang Sheng raised an eyebrow: "So?"
"You can get a refund."
"Okay, let's hurry up, I'm in a rush to get home."
Zhou Yue nodded: "Okay, please wait a moment..."
Having talked this far, Zhou Yue's panic had largely dissipated. It seemed that this Wang Sheng might actually be just a survivor.
The claim that martial artists turn into monsters is indeed a rumor.
Zhou Yue mustered his courage and began to chat casually:
"I'm just curious, how did you escape that disaster? What... happened inside?"
"have no idea."
Wang Sheng said earnestly.
"I have amnesia."
His tone was calm, without any panic or confusion.
Zhou Yue: "..."
He didn't dare to ask any further questions.
Is this amnesia? Does her tone sound like she has amnesia? It clearly sounds like she doesn't want to talk!
I have a feeling that this young man is probably not as simple as he seems.
"...Alright, the money has been refunded to your martial arts personal account. Um, are you available now...?"
"inconvenient."
Wang Sheng realized that this person was trying to stall him while waiting for those influential people to arrive.
"As you can see, I am a student at Qingjiang No. 12 Middle School, in the junior high school special training class for supernatural abilities. My name is Wang Sheng. Your home address should be easy to find."
As he spoke, Wang Sheng began to move his hands and feet.
"So no matter who wants to contact me, or what they want to talk to me about, we'll talk about it later."
"Right now, all I want is to go home."
As the words fell.
With a single step, Wang Sheng unleashed the extreme speed befitting a martial artist at the initial stage of the second realm before Zhou Yue could even speak to stop him.
"Whoosh—"
The speed suddenly bursts out to nearly 40 m/s.
Wang Sheng vanished from Zhou Yue's sight in the blink of an eye, disappearing without a trace.
