Chapter 155: The Zombie Mystery
This Yuema Festival was originally a festival for young men and women of ethnic minorities to look at each other and make up the right ones, but it was only when it spread to the Central Plains that many activities were added, and when Yan Yu told Lin Tang in the morning, it was not a complete lie, but only half of it, and the other half did not tell the truth.
Now the festival has reached the most important stage, that is, the stage of blind date between young men and women, there are only men and women of appropriate age left in the middle of the street, Yan Ruomeng stood opposite Lin Tang, looking at Lin Tang with affection, the firelight illuminated Yan Ruomeng's face, she gently took off the veil, revealing a clean and beautiful face.
In fact, Yan Ruomeng's appearance is completely what Lin Tang likes, although he has always regarded her as a sister before, in this situation, looking at Yan Ruomeng, Lin Tang involuntarily had some other feelings for Yan Ruomeng, Lin Tang wanted to get out of it, but he couldn't.
The two looked at each other, watching, Lin Tang slowly approached Yan Ruomeng...
At this moment, suddenly there was an exclamation from the side, and someone shouted, "There are zombies!" ”
Lin Tang suddenly became awake, and first hurriedly grabbed Yan Ruomeng's hand and hid her behind him.
Although a month has passed since the previous zombie disaster, as soon as people heard these two words, they still ran around in panic, there were originally many people on this street, and they couldn't squeeze away at all, the crowded crowd fled in all directions, Lin Tang tried his best to protect Yan Ruomeng in his arms, not to be squeezed by the crowd.
While raising his head vigorously to see where the zombies were, he could only see an endless crowd of people, people fled in all directions in horror, screaming, Lin Tang felt that his ears were about to be deaf.
"Ahh A scream sounded in his ears, Lin Tang hurriedly looked down, a girl was pushed to the ground by the crowd, but the people in a state of panic did not notice this situation, and several people stepped on her one after another.
Lin Tang frowned, these people were really crazy, and he hurriedly pushed several people around him away, and pulled the girl up with one hand. The girl had several footprints on her body, her hair was messy, and she was hanging with tears, Yan Ruomeng hurriedly comforted her.
Slowly the crowd began to decrease, Lin Tang asked the girl to hurry home by herself, and pulled Yan Ruomeng to the side, Yan Yu didn't know where to run, Lin Tang secretly prayed in his heart, don't let Yan Yu meet that zombie, otherwise Yan Yu has never seen a zombie, and his health is not good, it is too dangerous.
As soon as he walked out of the crowd, Lin Tang heard the scream, and hurriedly walked over, and saw a zombie with a stiff body and slightly bent legs rushing towards the crowd, grabbing a young man with one hand and throwing it out, the young man's shoulder immediately bled non-stop, and it seemed that he was injured.
The zombie then rushed towards the crowd again, and saw that the crowd was scattered, only a young man seemed to be frightened stupidly, motionless, Lin Tang fixed his eyes and saw that it was Yan Yu who disappeared inexplicably, Lin Tang couldn't care about it, and asked Yan Ruomeng to wait in place and not move.
He stepped forward a few arrows, kicked out the zombie that was about to be Yan Yu on his hand, turned around and spewed out a burst of true qi, knocking the zombie out, and the zombie fell to the ground, his head was sunken, and he was motionless.
There was no one on the street at this time, everyone ran away, Lin Tang grabbed Yan Yu, who was already frightened and motionless, and said, "It's dangerous here, let's go back first."
grabbed Yan Yu and Yan Ruomeng and left, although one zombie was solved, but there were more zombies behind, Lin Tang didn't know, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to protect Yan Yu and Yan Ruomeng alone, so he would go back to the safe Yan Mansion first.
The three of them hurriedly returned to the mansion, and Yan Jihe had already heard a report that zombies had suddenly appeared at the Yuema Festival, and he was very anxious.
When Lin Tang and the others returned to the mansion, Yan Jihe was in a hurry to turn around in the main room, and when he saw the three of them coming back, he breathed a sigh of relief and said seriously, "It's not peaceful outside recently, you will stay in the mansion in the future, and you are not allowed to go out."
Yan Yu opened his mouth, but he didn't dare to refute Yan Jihe's words, Yan Jihe was in a hurry, Yan Yu didn't dare to do anything with him, Yan Jihe glanced at Lin Tang, sighed, and said, "Young Master Lin, although we had some conflicts before, but now... ”。
Yan Jihe didn't continue, he asked Lin Tang to leave the Yan family before, if it wasn't for Yan Yu, the two of them would have torn their faces now, but they didn't expect that there would suddenly be zombies again, and now they are asking Lin Tang again, it seems that he Yan Jihe is embarrassed when he can't use people, and he is enthusiastic when he uses people.
Yan Jihe really couldn't say this, Lin Tang nodded in understanding, and said with a smile, "Uncle is polite, I have lived in Nanxi for so long, and I already have feelings for this place, how can I watch zombies wreak havoc on Nanxi."
Seeing that Lin Tang took the initiative to agree, Yan Jihe nodded, and began to secretly regret it in his heart, if Lin Tang could go to Yan Ruomeng, it would be great.
After a while, the guards transferred by Yan Jihe came, about a hundred people, all armed with swords, they had already figured out that zombies can only be completely killed if they cut off their heads, so before they were a few people who joined forces to take the zombie, and then cut off the head with a sword.
It's just that there were always people who were accidentally caught by zombies, and then they were infected and became zombies, so there are more and more zombies, and people are afraid, but now there are ways to treat zombie bites, and people are more brave.
In order to protect his family, there were many young and strong men who joined the guards, and Lin Tang divided the guards into several squads and personally searched the entire Nanxi City, but he didn't see other zombies anymore.
When the news was announced, the people in the city were relieved, but Lin Tang and the others felt even heavier in their hearts, the people would not think too much, as long as there were no zombies, it would be good to be able to survive safely.
But what Lin Tang and Yan Jihe thought was that after curing the people bitten by zombies before, they had already searched the whole city in a carpet way, and Lin Tang personally followed, so it was certain that there were no zombies anywhere in the city, so where did this zombie come from?
Running in from outside the city? But the city defense at the door is also very tight, even if it is an injured person, it will be taken for treatment, not to mention that now the whole world knows the method of treating zombie bites, who will leave the wound without treatment, deliberately conceal it and wait for death?
Lin Tang felt uneasy in his heart, and always felt as if something bigger was about to happen.
Seeing that there were no other zombies in the city, Lin Tang decided to start with the zombies caught this time, and several guards carefully carried the zombies back, Lin Tang asked Yan Jihe to come and identify, although Yan Jihe was the head of the Yan family and had a high status, but he had lived in Nanxi City all his life, and Nanxi City was not big, and he knew almost every family.
Yan Jihe looked left and right, and squatted for a long time to study carefully, although the zombie's face had been somewhat deformed, Yan Jihe still said with certainty, "This person is not from our Nanxi City, I don't know him."
Lin Tang was stunned, Yan Jihe called the people of the guard team to identify again, since there was a zombie mess, as long as there were living people in Nanxi City, they had to leave a portrait for later identification.
After the guards came, they didn't have to take out the portraits, and directly said that this person definitely didn't enter the city after the zombie disaster, just because of the zombie infestation, and now there are very few people in Nanxi City, and the people in the guard can recognize what these people look like.
If it's not someone who has recently entered the city, or a resident of the city, could it be that this zombie fell from the sky?
Lin Tang and Yan Jihe glanced at each other and felt that this matter was by no means simple.
First of all, the first point is how this zombie came to be, how can this kind of monster appear, Lin Tang didn't bother to think about this reason before, he just felt that if the zombie was solved, and no new zombies appeared, his mission would be a complete success.
But now, if you don't solve the source, know how this first person turned into a zombie, or even if someone didn't have bad intentions to turn this person into a zombie to harm people, then the zombie chaos will never be solved.
But Lin Tang and the others don't have a clue at all now, this city is so big, everyone looks normal, and Lin Tang is not Sherlock Holmes, so he really doesn't know how to investigate the case. We can only wait and see if any new zombies appear.
