After a few people packed up their bulging snakeskin bags, they followed Huzi all the way out of the village, and the dense clouds in the sky at more than 4 o'clock actually dispersed, and a touch of the slanting sun was slowly falling behind the mountain to the west.

The figure of a few people walking on the dirt road was gradually stretched, everyone was silent along the way, I don't know if it was because the food was too barbaric, and there was still a long way to go back to the mountain where they took refuge, everyone wanted to save some energy on the way back, or because of the guilt of everything that had just happened, and they didn't know how to face their fathers and hometowns when they went back.

Huzi straddled the snakeskin bag full of food on his shoulder, lit a cigarette, and walked silently in the front, followed by the tall man, Akang, then Bucktooth and the other 3 village names, and the fat man Qinghe walked in the back, and everyone walked silently.

When the sun has completely disappeared behind the mountain, several people also came to the hill where everyone was hiding, the villagers were not hiding high, and if they climbed up in one breath, it would take about 20 minutes, and a few people with a lot of food on their backs could reach the villagers as long as they hurried for about 30 minutes.

Huzi took the lead and put down the snakeskin bag at the foot of the mountain, then sat on the ground, took out the cigarettes he had taken from the search and rescue team members from his pocket, handed them out to a few people, and said: "Brothers, let's rest here for ten minutes first, smoke a cigarette, and then we will go up in one breath!" ”

Several people took the cigarette, put all their pockets on the ground, and then took turns to light the cigarette, and watched the smoke rise in the sunset, and everyone sat on the ground.

The tall and thin man raised his head and brushed the raunchy Liuhai in front of him and said: "Huzi, we will go up the mountain in a while, and after distributing the food, we will go to the eldest uncle to talk about the land exchange!" ”

Huzi took a puff of cigarette and said: "I just came back and I was thinking about what to say to the eldest uncle for a while, if I directly told the eldest uncle about the land exchange, the eldest uncle would definitely ask us the reason, why did we have to evacuate after returning to the village?" ”

"It can be said that the village is already full of living dead people all the way, and they only came back after escaping death, so for the safety of the villagers hiding in the mountains not far from this village, we suggest that everyone evacuate quickly!" Bucktooth said.

"But have you ever thought that these 40 people finally found such a peaceful place, and suddenly asked everyone to leave, looking for a new habitat, what a big project, and now this road and the nearby few of us have not found any living dead, if the villagers did not see how to explain this when they evacuated, then on the contrary, if they really encountered the attack of the living dead when evacuating, what should I do, you must know that there are still old people and children in the village! Anyway, I think we should be cautious! Akon said as he poured the stones inside the cloth shoes.

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, brothers, what do you think is feasible?" Fat Qinghe asked impatiently.

Huzi took a deep puff of his cigarette and said: "I think, we people don't speculate about anything here, it's useless to talk too much, it's better to honestly explain the situation to the eldest uncle like this, and see how his old man decides, this is the best way, I just thought about it, the tall man said that the way is not bad, it is true that as long as the eldest uncle and the villagers agree to move out of here, we will not have anything, it sounds like the things that happened in the afternoon are basically no one will know except for a few of us!" But this is also a problem in front of us, if we just tell the eldest uncle and the people in the village that because there are a large number of living dead people, it is no longer safe to hide in this mountain, I am afraid it is difficult to convince everyone, you should remember that when you were pulled from the village to this mountain, many people in the village were reluctant to go, which will make them move again, just this excuse is definitely impossible. ”

"Yes, I agree with Huzi's analysis." Ah Kang stood up and stepped on the cigarette butt and said, "Yu Qi wasted his tongue to persuade everyone to leave here, it is better to explain the actual situation clearly and see what the eldest uncle says." ”

"Then let's do it, don't dwell on it here!" Qinghe also threw away the cigarette butt, stood up, picked up the snakeskin bag, and prepared to leave.

"Tall, do you have any concerns? Brothers carry these things with you, so you don't have to worry about anything, you see? Huzi patted the thin and tall man on the shoulder and said, he knew that the tall man was usually more thoughtful, and when he suddenly encountered such a thing, not to mention that for him, even anyone present would be a little at a loss, and it was not a bad thing to choose to comfort him and give him some courage!

The thin and tall man looked at the eyes of Huzi and a few village brothers behind him, and also felt that it would be much better to be honest, and he also knew that although the eldest uncle was usually strict with everyone, when all kinds of major events happened in the village, the eldest uncle would still stand on his side, so he nodded fiercely at everyone and said, "Okay, then after we go back and distribute the food in a while, we will go to the eldest uncle to explain the situation!" ”

"Haha, that's right, brother, you see that the culprit of the matter is actually me, I'm not worried, what are you worried about here!" When Akon heard the tall and thin man say this, he immediately ran over and patted him on the shoulder.

At the foot of the mountain, everyone finally reached a consensus, and decided to go back and explain everything that happened in Jianping Village during the day today to the eldest uncle first, and then think about the next way together.

The sky gradually darkened, and several people lit the kerosene lamps in their hands, and soon returned to the halfway point of the mountain where the villagers were hiding.

A few village women who were busy cooking saw a few people who came back, and immediately called the people in the village, everyone helped to get the food they brought back, while shouting and asking for warmth, the village women gave 8 people a bowl of white rice porridge, and hot steamed buns, Huzi took everyone to squat on the side and watched the villagers rush to collect the food they brought back, and then drank and ate, all the way to the village, the wine has already dispersed, and after a busy day, you can drink a mouthful of hot porridge, It made a few people feel very warm, but a few people were uncharacteristically very quiet.

The eldest uncle in the crowd, who would only pack up the food, had already seen something unusual, so he slowly walked to Huzi and a few of them on crutches, looked at them with a smile on his face and asked: "Children, what's wrong, why do I think that the fire of a few of you is very depressed, is something happening, meet those living dead?" ”

Several people didn't dare to look up, just shook their heads while nibbling on the steamed buns in their hands.

The young people who were originally in the eldest uncle's serious trouble, suddenly became unusually quiet after returning to the village to get food, which made him feel a little abnormal after seeing some of the world, but he thought that he would let a few of them eat first, and then find a chance to ask about the situation, so he walked towards the busy crowd on crutches and said: "Wait for the big goods to have dinner in a while, you are waiting for me here, I have something to say to you!" ”

Several people looked at the back of the eldest uncle who was far away in disbelief, and they all felt a little puzzled in their hearts, could it be that the killing of people was written on their faces? Uncle Eldest How did he see that something was wrong with everyone, could it be that Uncle Chang sent someone to follow him, so let's wait for Uncle Chang to finish his work.

Under the leadership of the eldest uncle, everyone quickly distributed the grain brought back by Huzi and them to the village names on a household basis, and also left some as public grain and put it in the collective granary.

After watching everyone happily return to their resting place, the eldest uncle walked over slowly on crutches again, and at this time, Huzi and the eight of them had already finished eating the food in their hands and were smoking cigarettes together.

Seeing the eldest uncle coming, everyone immediately threw away the cigarette butts in their hands, and then stood up and helped the eldest uncle to a fallen tree trunk.

After the eldest uncle was done, everyone gathered around the eldest uncle again, and then Huzi took the lead and said, "Uncle, what do you want to say to us?" It's going to be windy in the mountains, so why don't you tell us when the sun comes out early? ”

The eldest uncle smiled and looked at everyone, nodded the bags under his eyes, and said: "Children, did you encounter anything when you went back to the village today, I see that you are not the same as usual, if you are usually asked to do something for the village, you must be extremely proud, today is like a deflated ball, really quiet." ”

"Uncle, we ......" The tall and thin man wanted to say directly, but suddenly he lost his courage.

"What, killed someone?" The eldest uncle looked at the tall and thin man who wanted to speak and asked.

Several people present were surprised, they didn't know how the eldest uncle guessed, they all stared at the old man in front of them with their mouths open.

The eldest uncle smiled again and said, "I must have encountered a lot of living dead people along the way, did they attack you, did they attack you, did they attack you, and then attacked you, and you killed them?" ”

It turned out that the eldest uncle thought that this group of boys were attacked by villagers who mutated into zombies on the way to get food, and then killed them.

"No, no, uncle, it's more serious than this!" Ah Kang didn't want to be trusted, so he directly stood up and told the eldest uncle what had happened, and the tall and thin man in the middle, Huzi and a few other people also made some additions.

After hearing this, the eldest uncle put away the smile on his face, and then was silent, and kept smoking the cigarette in his eye bag, waiting for the cigarette pot to finish smoking, he took out some tobacco from a small cloth bag around his waist, and said unhurriedly while filling the tobacco into the cigarette pot: "You say that you killed a few search and rescue team members who were originally going to come to rescue us for no reason?" ”

A few people bowed their heads and remained silent like children who had made a mistake when they saw their parents.

"Confused! Confused! The eldest uncle used the cane in his hand to squeeze the ground and said, "Let you go and fetch some food for everyone and come back, you have nothing to drink, if you really want to drink, can't you get it back and drink it again?" Mutilating a few lives for no reason, you ...... Hey......"

Listening to the eldest uncle's helpless sigh, several people's heads were lowered, especially the thin and tall ones, and he couldn't wait to bury his head in the ground.

"What are you going to do now?" Uncle Chang asked with the bags under his eyes again.

"Let's ......" Huzi raised his head and was about to answer the eldest uncle, but after seeing the sharp eyes of the eldest uncle, he lowered his head again, and he didn't dare to continue to speak.

"Say, what's the use of silence now, you have to face it how you want to face it, things have to have a result!" Uncle Eldest urged.

"Uncle, we think that the village names should withdraw from here early tomorrow morning, and find a place away from the village to hide!" Huzi plucked up the courage to say.

"Hmph, it's light, how can I explain to the villagers, do you just tell them that you killed three search and rescue team members when you entered the village to get food, and in order to escape the possibility of chasing other search and rescue personnel, the whole village has to leave here in a big fight? How many people do you think will agree with you? The eldest uncle asked angrily.

"Then the living dead are rampant, now it is no longer safe in this mountain, everyone needs to change the hiding place in time to ensure the safety of the whole village!" Akon said.

"If you don't see the shadow of the living dead when you evacuate down the mountain, how can the villagers explain when they ask?" The eldest uncle continued to ask.

"This ......" everyone fell silent again.

"Uncle, we do know how big the mistake we have made, but we don't know what to do, we can only ask your old man for help, there is really no way, uncle, you must help us think of a way, we really know that we are wrong!" Huzi took the lead and knelt down and said with a crying voice.

"Get up quickly, what if you show other villagers like this!" The eldest uncle hurriedly asked a few young people in front of him to get up.

Several people stood up again, and then looked at Uncle Chang, all waiting for Uncle Chang to give a final solution.

The eldest uncle sighed, took a few more puffs of cigarette and said: "So far, we can't choose to hide, now only we know about this matter, let's not tell the people in the village first, just continue to live here, if there is really a search and rescue team member in the mountains to find us, we can only bite to death after the appearance of the living dead in the village and move here, I don't know anything about what happened in the village!" How's your aftermath going? ”

"The people are buried in the field behind the little historian's house, this is the weapon of those people!" Huzi took out a somewhat dirty snakeskin bag from his back and put it in front of the eldest uncle.

"You guys are really bold, hurry up and dispose of all these things, it's a disaster to keep these, I don't want to see this bag of things when I wake up tomorrow morning, do you know?" The eldest uncle frowned and stood up and said, "Okay, it's decided, you must keep your mouth shut, just treat these things as if none of them happened, understand!" ”

"Okay, uncle, we don't think it's right, don't worry!"
