Chapter 393: Clever Zombies
From the words of the innkeeper, Lu He also knew what was happening here.
This village is called Qingwu Village, because it is built along the official road, so it is very prosperous, and the people in the village live much better than the people in other villages, and they can eat meat from time to time.
But seven days ago, the peace in the village was shattered.
Dead!
Speaking of which, in this world, it is so normal for people to die, and there is nothing unusual.
But the surface of the body of the dead person seemed to have shrunk, leaving only dry skin wrapped around the bones, and the bulges of the blood vessels and tendons in the body could be seen from the bones, as if the flesh and blood on the body had been emptied.
And on the neck of the deceased, there were two blackened holes.
Zombies kill!
In this world, although zombies are not a rare thing, for monks, zombies are nothing more than imbeciles without intelligence, which can be killed with a wave of their hands, but for ordinary people, a zombie is enough to make them tremble and fear.
On the day the deceased was discovered, several large families in the town paid together to invite a monk from a nearby Taoist temple to come and subdue the zombies.
But he didn't want to, after a whole day, the monk didn't find any traces of zombies, he could only feel that the zombies were in this village, but he searched the village back and forth several times, but he couldn't find it.
The monk stayed in the village for one night, the night went as usual, and the next day he stayed in the village for another day, and the zombie still did not appear, and he speculated that the zombie should have just passed by, so he returned to the temple.
Just when everyone in the village thought that the zombies were gone, that night, there were dead people in the village again.
This time, it was a family in a remote place in the east of the village, a family of three, neatly organized.
This time the matter was big, the people in the village paid for it, and went to Windy City to invite the master to come, the master lived in this village for two days, and found nothing, and finally he pretended to leave, but in fact he observed on the mountain near the village for two days, the zombie has not yet appeared, and finally, the master also returned to Windy City.
But on the night of the master's departure, there were dead people in the village again, and, as soon as they died, more than a dozen people died.
There are only more than 100 families in this whole village, and the total number of people is only three or five hundred, and according to this way of death, it will not be long before the whole village will die here.
And the death of more than a dozen people happened last night, and today, people are worried about the reappearance of zombies, in the morning there have been many people who have left the village while the sun is in full bloom, some have taken refuge with relatives and friends, and some are directly moving their families, and now in the whole village, there are only about 100 people left.
And most of these people are old people who are over half a hundred years old, and they are about to die, and they do not want to leave their homeland.
"This zombie has a lot of brains. ”
Lu He couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard the whole story.
Aren't zombies all acting on instinct in general?
The innkeeper sighed lightly and said, "I wanted to leave today, but after thinking about it, where can I go? ”
How easy is it to make a comeback?
The shopkeeper of this inn, looking at his face, has reached the age of no confusion, and the average lifespan of mortals in this world is less than sixty years old.
With a smile on his face, Lu He said, "You don't have to go, we will stay with you tonight, just pack up two guest rooms." ”
"Thank you, sir!"
The innkeeper was very excited, and then his face changed slightly, slightly embarrassed, and said, "Here in the shop, there is only one room left." ”
Lu He's expression froze, and he subconsciously glanced at Bingying, but saw that Bingying didn't care about it.
That night, Lu He and Bingying sat in the guest room, looking at each other speechlessly.
In short, they are all monks, and they don't need to sleep, so naturally there is nothing to taboo, Lu He just took out the palace lamp in the room to light up the room and then started to read, while Bingying was bored lying on the bed and looking at the ceiling with her arms in a daze.
From time to time, there was the sound of hurried footsteps downstairs, the voice of the innkeeper, who was anxiously and frightened walking back and forth.
At this time, it was already pitch black outside, everything was silent, and the boundless darkness seemed to swallow everything.
"I see!"
Bingying suddenly jumped up from the bed, looked at Lu He excitedly and said, "Master, that zombie, could it be a person from this village? During the day, he is a human, and at night he becomes a zombie and comes out to harm people?"
Lu He raised his eyebrows, nodded with a smile, didn't see it, Bing Ying was still quite smart, in fact, Lu He also thought of this, otherwise, he couldn't explain why the news of the zombie was so well-informed, every time an immortal cultivator came to arrest him, he would know.
But this also shows that the strength of the zombie is not very strong, if the strength is strong, such as the high-level zombie of the mortal realm refined by the master of the Yin Evil Gate, or the swordsman zombie in the world in the painting, once those zombies are born, they will immediately dislike the bloody rain, and even they disdain to pay attention to ordinary mortals, because there are too many impurities in the blood of mortals, and they are more willing to suck the blood of immortal cultivators.
Bingying was like a small pillow at this time, playing with her hair braids in her hands, and said, "If I'm not mistaken, that zombie should be the innkeeper downstairs!"
The voice landed, and the footsteps downstairs stopped instantly.
Lu He was taken aback by Bingying's cleverness, he just guessed that the zombie might be from the town, but he never thought that the zombie would actually be the shopkeeper of this inn, and he stood face to face with the shopkeeper, and he didn't notice any corpse qi from the shopkeeper's body at all.
Bingying smiled: "Master, I'm smart, right?"
"Okay. ”
Lu He nodded, then reached out and grabbed it.
Bang!
A big hole opened in the ground in an instant, and the shopkeeper of the inn was supported by an invisible spiritual power and flew directly in front of Lu He.
"Wronged, wronged!"
As soon as he saw Lu He, the innkeeper knelt on the ground with a puff, trembling like chaff, and crying in a trembling voice.
Bing Ying sneered: "Wronged? Do you think I guessed wrong? Stinky zombie, show your original form!"
With that, Bingying directly punched the innkeeper on the forehead.
Bang!
The next moment, the innkeeper was directly beaten and passed out, and fell to the ground with a pop.
Bingying was stunned, subconsciously looked at her fist, and said, "I didn't make any effort." ”
"It's mortal. ”
Lu He shook his head helplessly.
