Chapter 61: Crazy Townspeople

As soon as the Taoist priest's shout fell, I heard a gunshot from not far away, and almost at the same time, a bullet flew over with a swish of the hair on my forehead, and brilliant sparks shot off on the bluestone by the river.

I was immediately frightened, and I didn't dare to move. Different from the fear of encountering ghosts and zombies, this is completely the instinctive fear when real life is threatened, and even if the bullet just missed half an inch, my head will explode directly.

But when I calmed down, the fear of my life being threatened suddenly turned into rage, and I looked up in the direction from which the gunshots came, to see which of the king's eight lambs had fired the shots. At a glance, we found more than a dozen guys with guns in their hands more than 20 meters away, pointing guns at us.

At this time, I was already carried away by anger, and I didn't care if they had guns or not, and scolded: "I'll grass your grandma, if you have a seed, shoot again." ”

Hearing my swearing, the vigilant movements of those people relaxed instead, and one of them shouted at us in a strong dialect language: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, the town is clearing monsters, you sneaky, we will treat you as those monsters, I'm really sorry." ”

Hearing him say this, my anger was not good to attack, I just wanted to speak, but suddenly I noticed that something was wrong, and my heart said that it was not right, didn't ordinary townspeople hide? These people are all armed with guns, so they can't be the mayor's people, right?

Thinking of this, I became vigilant at once, whispered to the Taoist priests that they were ready to slip away, and then asked them loudly: "Since it was a misunderstanding, then forget it, how is the situation in the town?" ”

I'm not really trying to ask them about the situation in the town, if these people are really the mayor's people or the followers of the dark witch, then they must have received orders from the mayor and the Shangli patriarch to hunt us down. As I spoke, my foreign accent had already revealed our identities, and these people didn't shoot, maybe they wanted to stabilize us and catch us alive, so I could only pretend that I didn't find out their identities, so that these people would have the illusion that we trusted them, and delay our escape.

Sure enough, after I asked this question, the people over there put away their guns, and the voice that responded to me just now continued: "The monsters in the town have been destroyed, hurry up, you hurry up, the town is safe." ”

"Run!" When I saw the men lower their guns, I immediately let out a low shout, and then the five of them flew up the river. The men had apparently not expected us to flee suddenly, and by the time they had come back to their senses and screamed to stop, we were already in the thick of the reeds on the bank of the river.

Behind us the gunshots rang out incessantly, mixed with the shouts of the men, and we went into the reeds frantically, and the guns rang out at least twenty or thirty times, but none of them hit us.

I was so nervous that my legs went limp, but I kept running until I couldn't hear them at all. The tunnel can't be walked, Yang Mengqing said that if you go straight up the river, there is a section of the river that will pass through the town.

Thinking of what those people said just now, even if it is true, although there are no living dead, we are facing people who are more terrifying than the living dead. The living dead have no mind, no soul, no intrigue, but the crazy townsfolk are different, they are living people, they are our kind, but they have become the mayor's loyal eagle dogs, with guns in their hands, and they will not be soft in the face of us, I don't know how many times more terrible than the living dead.

We looked at each other and smiled bitterly, and we kept fighting all kinds of monsters and ghosts along the way, but we didn't realize that the biggest enemy was our own kind, which was really ironic.

Along the river, we crept into the town, and as the people said, the living dead wandering the town were gone, and the street lights were all on, and it looked like the previous power outage was deliberate.

This makes it even more difficult for us to traverse the town.

Yang Mengqing thought for a moment and said that our current location is very close to her house, so we might as well change our plan and go to her house first, and then go to the river from the underground passage of her house, so that we can avoid the people on the ground unconsciously.

This is a good idea, Yang Mengqing is familiar with the road, she led the way, we cautiously sneaked into the town, try to pick the remote alleys and alleys, after bypassing the two streets, I saw our car.

The car was completely unusable due to lack of gas, so I opened the door and took another flashlight and electric baton, and several people rushed to the door of Yang Mengqing's house.

Everything went smoothly and no one noticed us, but just as we were about to go inside, something happened. The door behind us suddenly opened, and a tall, lanky man with a shotgun stepped out and bumped into us. When he saw us, he was a little dazed, and he didn't react for a while, the Taoist priest was quick-eyed, and he jumped to his side with an arrow, and knocked him unconscious with a hand knife, but his fingers that held the trigger still moved, and the gun immediately went off.

The loud gunfire attracted people patrolling nearby, and there were quite a few people listening to the shouting. The Taoist priest scolded Shengniang, snatched the shotgun and bullet bag in the hand of the tall and thin man, and shouted at us: "Come in, I'll cover up!" ”

As we spoke, we saw that he was quickly loaded, and we did not dare to slack off, so we hurriedly rushed into the house and went straight to the staircase. Yang Mengqing turned a pillar at the foot of the stairs, the tunnel door opened, and Lin Qiaoer and Xiao Na jumped down first.

At this time, the Taoist priest and those people had already exchanged fire, but the number of the other party was too large, no matter how good the Taoist priest was, he could not withstand the siege of more than 20 guns of the opponent, and soon retreated in defeat, seeing that Yang Mengqing and I had not gone down, he immediately scolded: "What are you still stunned, hurry up!" As soon as he finished speaking, he pushed me down, but at this moment, I suddenly noticed a huge shadow in the darkness of the room rushing behind the Taoist priest.

"Watch your back!" I yelled in a hurry, the Taoist priest also noticed the movement behind him, and the short body dodged the sneak attack of the thing, I hurriedly turned on the flashlight to shine, and suddenly saw that the thing that attacked the Taoist priest was actually a monster more than two meters tall and covered in reddish-brown dry wood. The moment I saw this thing, I immediately gasped, and involuntarily spit out two words in my mouth: corpse.

How could there be corpses here? I couldn't figure it out, and the corpse gave me a feeling of great familiarity, as if I had seen it somewhere. My mind flashed through countless images in an instant, and suddenly all of them were frozen in the scene of encountering the corpse on the stone bridge of the town.

It's it! My heart was shocked, and I hurriedly shouted at the Taoist priest: "Come down, this thing is evil!" ”

In fact, there is no need for me to shout, the Taoist priest has already jumped down with Yang Mengqing in his arms, and I wanted to jump down when I saw the corpse following, I was busy pulling the switch, but the head of the corpse had already poked in, and the upper body was stuck in the closed steel plate, and he kept roaring at us, and at the same time reached out to grab Yang Mengqing.

The strength of the corpse was extremely great, and the steel plate that clamped it was tossed by it, making a heart-stopping cracking sound, and the Taoist priest was quick to move, and took out a cinnabar yellow talisman from his arms and pasted it on the top of the corpse's head, and it suddenly stopped moving.

We all breathed a sigh of relief, but the Taoist priest told us to run quickly, saying that this talisman could only stop it temporarily. As soon as the words fell, the rune paper made a soft crackling sound, and the cinnabar on it exploded, and the corpse squeezed into the tunnel even more frantically, and the two evil eyes stared at Yang Mengqing, as if we were not its target.

At that moment, crackling gunshots were heard from above the tunnel, and the townsfolk outside opened fire on the corpses. Enraged, the corpse shrank back with a roar, followed by a fierce fight on the ground, gunfire accompanied by the howls of the townspeople, and liquid immediately dripped down the cracks in the steel plates. I took a photo, it was blood, and my scalp exploded immediately, so I pulled up Lin Qiaoer, who was still in a daze, and ran.

The Taoist priest had already run out with Yang Mengqing and Xiao Na, and we followed them and ran for a while, but they were so fast that after turning a few corners, they threw us away.

Fortunately, Lin Qiao'er remembered the way we walked before, so I wasn't too worried. We continued to run, not expecting anyone to be in there, and after turning a ninety-degree tunnel opening, an iron rod smashed against my head. I was terrified, but the inertia of running made it impossible for me to dodge, so I could only tilt my head slightly, and the iron rod struck me on the shoulder.

This stick was completely beaten to death, leaving no room at all, and immediately knocked me to the ground, but after the events of the past few days, my reaction was much faster, and the moment I fell to the ground, I endured the pain and rolled to the person who attacked me, and suddenly got up and crashed into him.

He didn't expect me to react so quickly, and I was immediately knocked into the wall, and before I could breathe a sigh of relief, another iron rod hit my head mercilessly, although I didn't faint, but I was also smashed dizzy, and blood suddenly flowed down my forehead.

Dog, there are still people, I cursed in my heart, but I couldn't raise the strength to resist, and the people fell. At this time, the guy who was knocked into the air by me had already rolled over, as if provoked by me, raised his foot and kicked me in the stomach and head frantically, and cursed at the same time. I had to curl up to protect the fatal part, but I didn't expect the guy to go completely crazy, and he took out a knife out of nowhere and stabbed me in the stomach.

The severe pain made me completely lose the ability to think, I heard Lin Qiao'er let out a hoarse exclamation, and also heard the angry curse of the Taoist priest, I tried my best to open my eyes to see, and found that the Taoist priest and they were all under control.
