The Valley of the Dead

Looking up from this valley, it was all foggy, and nothing could be seen from above. In the valley, you can only see a few meters close to the ground.

There were only a few low trees in the valley, but the leaves of the small trees were so dense that a lot of messy things were covered by the trees.

And on the trees, the most things that can be seen are the corpses and bones of various animals and people.

Obviously, this valley is a rocky hill where dead people are thrown.

Where there are corpses, there are always a few vultures around, or flying on the side, or pecking at the minced meat of the corpse.

There was only a slightly shriveled corpse, surrounded by a few vultures, which wanted to lean in and peck at them, as if they were afraid of something.

Finally, a vulture hovering around couldn't help but land next to the corpse, and it looked at the other vultures that were far away, and quacked twice, not knowing whether to show off or beckon them to come and eat together.

But some of the other vultures moved, some hovered a little closer, but finally they didn't dare to land next to the corpse.

The bold vulture, seeing that he could not call the other companions, flapped his wings and pecked at the corpse's neck.

When you get closer, you can see that there is a hole in the neck where the vulture pecked at the corpse, and about ten centimeters next to the hole where it pecked, there is a hole that is basically the same length.

It's no wonder that this corpse is a little shriveled, and someone has made such two big holes in the neck, and there will definitely be a lot of blood flowing out of the body.

This vulture is also relatively intelligent. Inserting the mouth through the hole saves you the trouble of opening your mouth on your thick skin. and can directly bite the first bite, and bite the relatively tender flesh and blood in the inner layer of the person.

"Gah!" The vulture sticks its beak in. When it was taken out again, there was a little bit of blood on its mouth that was not too bright red, but it was obvious that it had not taken out the flesh in its mouth.

It looked up again at the vultures around it, and then called a few more times, "Quack, quack! He paused his gaze at the other vultures.

Finally, a vulture standing on the other side of the corpse couldn't help it, and it slowly walked awkwardly towards the corpse on two feet.

"Quack, quack!"

"Quack, quack!"

“――”

A lot of vultures cried, and then. I saw the vultures hovering in the air falling towards the corpse, and the vultures standing next to the corpse also began to rush towards the corpse quickly.

The first vulture, seeing that Dongpu was surrounding, quickly lowered his head and pecked at the corpse's eyes.

"Bang!" The first vulture, which pecked at the corpse's closed eyelids, did not move, as if it were pecking at a mountain of stones.

Wait for it to raise its head. When they pecked at the corpse again, the other vultures had already begun to bite as well.

However, these vultures are as if they were a disciplined force. Although they fall in a mess, each one occupies a place and makes them appear. It's not crowded, but it's also a separate one.

"Bang!" Again. This time it was different, although it didn't peck the corpse's eyeballs off. However, the outer skin of the eyelids was pecked off a little, to be exact, it should be pecked.

Looking at these vultures, as well as these bones, you know that every corpse here will not be preserved with skin and flesh for too long, and this corpse, it seems, will soon become a skeleton.

"Bang bang bang!" More than a dozen vultures pecked at the corpse one by one, and saw that the corpse's clothes were in tatters, and all the flesh that had been exposed had slowly oozed out with a faint trace of blood.

"Quack!" The first bald eagle that fell was not in a hurry to peck at it, but cried out, although the sound was not pleasant, but looking at its high neck, I also knew that it was showing off.

The other vultures ignored it and pecked at the corpse, and the first vulture, after two calls, began to peck at the corpse's eyelids again.

"Gah!" Finally, a vulture barked weakly.

The other vultures, as if sensing that something was wrong, looked at the calling vulture.

By the time the vultures saw the other vultures, they finally realized that something was wrong.

It seems that the movements of each vulture have slowed down, like in slow motion in the movie, and the place where the corpse has been pecked seems to have only injured the skin, and there is no piece of meat pecked off by the vulture.

"Gah!" All the time the vulture screamed and spread its wings, trying to fly away.

Unfortunately, before its feet left the ground, it slowly seemed to be unwilling and threw its neck on the corpse.

Continuously, the other vultures also slowly fell on the corpse's body, or threw their necks on the corpse, and some vultures were unwilling to struggle, trying to lift their heads, but unfortunately, they just moved and fell down again.

Then, I saw that the blood stains on the vulture's mouth slowly faded, and then, from the mouth of each vulture, blood bubbles appeared, like running water, to the wounds on the corpse.

When I was pecked everywhere just now, there was only a faint trace of blood on the corpse, but now, the whole corpse seems to be stained red.

If you get closer, you can see that the corpse is like a dirt floor, slowly sucking the liquid on it, and after sucking it, there is no trace of blood stained on the corpse, but the corpse's incomplete clothes look like they have been soaked in liquid, but there is no color of blood.

The only difference is that the corpses of those vultures have been deflated, while the shriveled corpses are slowly bulging, but they are not as plump as normal people.

There were still a few vultures flying in the sky that were attracted by the call just now, and they may have seen the scene just now, and they were all far away, and some of them flew away directly.

There is not much light in the valley, it should still be half of the afternoon outside, it has begun to slowly darken here, those hovering vultures, gradually, can only see a pair of pale yellow balls of light, flying by from time to time.

At last, there was nothing to be seen in the valley, and the vultures should have returned to their nests, recuperating and waiting for a new corpse to be the first to discover and eat the most delicious parts of him.

The corpse, which was already a little full, was still lying there quietly, if, at this time, someone took a light to shine it, they would find that the corpse was still changing.

The corpse didn't move, but the skin of the corpse was changing.

This corpse, as if there are a lot of small bugs under the skin, these little bugs go there, there will be a bulge, and where the small bugs gather, there will be a big bag.

Moreover, these little insects are still in motion, as if they are not afraid of getting tired, and they keep changing places.

It lasted for more than ten hours, and finally, these little insects were tired and didn't know where to crawl out, and the corpse turned into a freshly soaked blood again.

The only difference is that many of the vultures that threw their heads on the corpses were drilled by small insects and slid their heads down.

The sky finally became bright again, and the whole valley was shrouded in white fog again, and only a few meters away could be seen.

Sure enough, there were a few more corpses on these canopies, and those vultures had begun to peck at their hearts, but some vultures that had not yet found their prey were hovering in mid-air, flying towards the top of the valley from time to time, and then quickly flying down again.

Every time they passed the corpse of a dozen vultures lying beside them, they couldn't help but take a few more looks, and they also raised their flight altitude a little more.

This corpse is never visited by vultures again.

In the night, the little insects seemed to crawl under the skin of the corpse again, and began to burrow back and forth in it, but it was a little less moving than on the first day.

This situation lasted for five days, and by the sixth day, although the corpse still showed a little sign of small bugs, it was basically invisible.

On the night of the seventh day, the corpse suddenly turned flat and violent again, and at last it was as if it had fallen on a spring, and its hands and feet were lifted up from time to time.

It wasn't until dawn that the corpse slowly calmed down.

On the eighth night, the corpse also had a calm and slowly turned to restlessness, and in the second half of the night, many small animals living in the valley heard a painful and long howl, which made them feel uneasy, and even a few small animals that lived on the branches of the trees fell.

After this howl, the whole valley slowly returned to calm. (To be continued.) )
