Chapter 375: Chasing Corpses in the Dead of Night
Xiao Le's tracking ability is indeed very strong, and at a distance of about fifteen minutes from the cottage, he found the footprints of Li Guhan and the four people.
Seeing this, Xiao Le couldn't help but groan: "Strange. ”
"What's wrong?" Qian Xiaodao asked.
"Could it be that this Li Guhan has been to this place a long time ago?"
"Why do you say that?"
"Judging by the footprints, they didn't call a tour guide; Second, their steps were steady, and there was no pause or hesitation. ”
After pondering for a moment, Qian Xiaodao said in a deep voice: "According to this analysis, it seems that they should indeed have been here before." ”
Ye Qing suddenly said: "You say, could this be Li Guhan's conspiracy?" ”
"Conspiracy?" The three of them turned their heads to look at Ye Qing at the same time.
"Yes, since Li Guhan is so familiar with this place, it means that he can come here anytime and anywhere, but why is it this time, and he tells you through other people's mouths. If it was really a secret operation, he wouldn't tell a little girl who didn't know anything about the world, right? ”
"Makes sense." Gao Tong clapped his hands and said.
"Tsk...... Let you say this, it seems to be such a truth. Qian Xiaodao paused, and then said, "But why did he bring me here for no reason and at great length?" ”
"Kill people?"
"If you want to kill someone, at most you will choose a remote place, as for running all the way to Xiangxi?"
"Oh yes." Gao Tong scratched his head.
"Don't guess, we'll find out if we follow."
Qian Xiaodao nodded and agreed with Xiao Le.
The four of them immediately followed the footprints and headed northeast.
It was getting dark soon.
Before dark, the four of them had already found a relatively flat terrain and set up their tents.
Two double tents with a campfire in the middle.
This time, the person who set the trap became Xiao Le, and in terms of setting traps, Xiao Le, who often hunted in the mountains, was taught by the old hunter himself.
After dinner, everyone did not talk much, but went into the tent to rest.
Like yesterday, Qian Xiaodao and Ye Qing were together, and Xiao Le had to continue to endure Gao Tong's thunderous snoring.
Due to tiredness, Gao Tong and Xiao Le quickly fell asleep.
Qian Xiaodao turned off the lights and frowned and thought hard.
"Seven." After a long time, Ye Qing suddenly spoke.
"Huh? Yezi, you haven't slept yet? ”
"I usually go to bed at ten o'clock, but now it's only eight o'clock, which is a little unaccustomed." Ye Qing also sat up and turned his head to look at Qian Xiaodao.
In the dark, although she couldn't see Qian Xiaodao's face clearly, she could feel his presence.
"Are you still thinking about Li Guhan?"
"Hmm." Qian Xiaodao nodded, "It's always a little uneasy, but as long as a master like Li Guhan plays latent play, he generally won't make a move, once he does, he will definitely be like a poisonous snake, as long as he is gently rubbed by his fangs, he will die in Huangquan." ”
"But it's useless for you to think like this now, it's better to rest more and recuperate."
"I understand, since I can't figure it out, I can only rest."
At this time, Qian Xiaodao suddenly said: "Hey, what sound?" ”
"Yes, brass bells. Leaf, do you hear the sound of the brass bell? ”
"No, where did the brass bell come from?"
The voices of the two suddenly stopped, and immediately after, a string of copper bells faintly came from a distance.
"There are really copper bells, where did the copper bells come from in this wilderness?"
Qian Xiaodao seemed to have thought of it, and said to Ye Qing: "I'll go out and have a look first." ”
"I'll be with you."
As soon as Qian Xiaodao and Ye Qing came out of the tent, they found that Xiao Le had also unzipped from the tent and squinted at Qian Xiaodao.
"Old Seven, did you also hear the copper bell?"
"Hmm."
"Where did the brass bell come from?"
Qian Xiaodao said in a deep voice: "If I am not mistaken, it is very likely that the corpse chaser is ringing the bell." ”
"Corpse chaser? It's all in this age, and there are still people driving out corpses? ”
"The corpse chasing industry was quite common before the founding of the People's Republic of China, but after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the transportation gradually developed, and the corpse chaser naturally lost the foundation of survival." Qian Xiaodao changed his words, "However, there are always exceptions to everything. Moreover, the general corpse chaser does not need to ring the bell, and the bell that the corpse chaser rings is also very peculiar, and there seems to be some special power in the bell. And, listen to the voice, he's coming in the direction of us. When we're out and about, we try not to get into trouble with them. ”
"Okay, I'll go with you."
Qian Xiaodao hurriedly said: "No, you keep and take care of the bucket, he has indeed suffered in the past two days." ”
Xiao Le shrugged his shoulders and smiled bitterly: "This thing shouted Zuo Keran's name in his dream just now, and kissed the pillow fiercely." ”
Just about ten meters away from their camp on the Qian Trail, there is a small mountain road, and they also enter this area along this mountain road during the day.
As the copper bell rang from far to near, Qian Xiaodao noticed a team coming in front of him.
The leader was a middle-aged man in a Taoist robe, who was carrying a miner's lamp in his hand, which, although not as good as a wolf's eye flashlight, was enough to illuminate the road ahead.
And when Qian Xiaodao saw the team behind the middle-aged Taoist priest, he couldn't help but be startled!
"Zombies! He turned out to be a zombie! ”
Ye Qing asked with a blank face: "The corpse chaser should have been a zombie?" ”
"No, no, no, that's a film and television work that is misleading. The conditions for the formation of zombies are very harsh, and not everyone will become a zombie after death. And in general, the corpse chaser is the walking corpse. Most of these walking corpses are corpse chasers using their secret techniques to make the corpses move temporarily, and all the actions of the corpses are actually set by the corpse chasers. ”
Qian Xiaodao continued: "But zombies are different, and the formation of zombies in Meiyi has unique conditions. Now it is a time of peace, and people generally go to the crematorium after death, and the possibility of the corpse absorbing yin qi and producing corpse transformation and turning into a zombie is very small. Moreover, this person turned out to be all stiff! If you put it in the city, it will cause a big riot. ”
"Shhhh
Qian Xiaodao thought about it, then stood up from behind the bushes and took the initiative to enter the light of the middle-aged Taoist priest.
The middle-aged Taoist priest stood three or four meters away from Qian Xiaodao, he folded his hands and saluted Qian Xiaodao slightly.
"This fellow Daoist, who doesn't sleep in the middle of the night, intercepts poverty here, dares to ask what you are doing?"
Qian Xiaodao returned the salute and said with a smile: "The Taoist chief misunderstood, our two brothers were just camping nearby, and they were attracted by the copper bells. ”
"Oh?" The middle-aged Taoist priest smiled, "So it's still a poor Dao to disturb abruptly." ”
"It's okay, it's okay, we're curious too." Ye Qing hurriedly waved his hand.
Qian Xiaodao asked the middle-aged Taoist priest, "Daoist, are you familiar with this area?" ”
