Chapter 15: The dead are raised

They walked for another two hours or so, and the cobblestone path came to an end, and in front of it was a smooth and clean road made of square bluestone.

"Looks like we're almost in the village of Guta." Qi Lu quickened his pace.

"Alas, I killed you." Ding Xiaolan still had a sad face.

The bluestone road passed through a small forest, and suddenly opened up in front of me, and a village appeared less than 100 meters ahead, and the houses in the village looked very old, all of which were black tiles and adobe bricks. There is also a stone tablet standing in front of the village, Qi Lu walked up to see that it was the three big characters of Guta Village.

"It's finally here, and I can get a good night's sleep today."

But Ding Xiaolan hesitated, stopped and didn't dare to take another step forward, as if there were man-eating monsters in the village.

Qi Lu pretended not to see her frightened expression, took her hand and forcibly led her into the village.

As soon as he entered the entrance of the village, Qi Lu was thinking about finding a villager to ask for the village chief's address, when he saw a young man walking out of a pigsty in front of the left, and he was walking towards Qi Lu and the others.

The villager got closer and closer, and he could already see his appearance clearly, but Ding Xiaolan's whole body trembled like a pendulum and fell into Qi Lu's arms.

Qi Lu hugged her, and his heart was also extremely shocked, he wanted to escape, but his legs couldn't move half a step like lead, because the villagers they saw were none other than Sailei, who sacrificed his life to cover their retreat.

When Qi Lu was surprised, Sai Lei had already come to him and asked, "Seeing that the two of you don't look like the natives of Burma, I don't know what is the important thing to come to our small village?" ”

"Are you Cyon?" Qi Lu suddenly remembered that Sai Lei had said that he had a younger brother.

"Sir, you recognize the wrong person, my name is Yang Ning."

Qi Lu asked again: "Then do you know Sailei?" ”

"Who's Selei?" Yang Ning had a stunned expression on his face, and he didn't look like he was pretending.

Qi Lu buried Sailei's body with his own hands, but now this person who called himself Yang Ning didn't look like a dead man at all, and his conversation and demeanor didn't even look alike. But Qi Lu's expression tightened even more, as he saw the scar on his chest from the open collar of Yang Ning's shirt.

Sai Lei has shown off his scars in front of Qi Lu many times, Qi Lu will never admit his mistake, and at this moment he sees these familiar scars again.

There may be people in this world who look exactly the same, but there will never be people who even have the same scars.

The cold wind blew across Qi Lu's face, and he saw that the sunlight stretched Yang Ning's shadow long, and in an instant, his heart lit up, ghosts have no shadows. If there is a shadow, it must not be a ghost, then Yang Ning must be a living person.

Thinking of this, Qi Lu was no longer afraid, so he turned to the topic and said: "Hello, I am Yang Lu from China, and I came to your village to deliver an important thing to the village chief on the order of my father Yang Peng. ”

As soon as he heard this, Yang Ning's face was filled with a bright smile, "Oh, why didn't you say it earlier." The village is looking forward to you every day. We're all from the same clan, so you need to stay here for a while. ”

"How can I trouble everyone?"

Before Qi Lu finished speaking, Yang Ning hurriedly said, "You're welcome, you are a distinguished guest." Wait a minute, I'll tell the village chief. After saying that, he hurried into the village to report.

After a while, the village chief came to greet Qi Lu, an old man with white hair and a kind face.

"Welcome Xiao Yang to Guta Village, I am Yang Yi, the village head, please come to my house first."

"Then it's troublesome Uncle Yang."

Yang Yi asked: "This lady seems to be sick, is she suffering from the cold?" I'll ask the village doctor to see her later. ”

"Thank you, village chief, I'm really bothering you."

Yang Yi smiled and said: "We are all a family, and if we talk about trouble, we will see the outside." ”

Qi Lu followed him to the house, and the village chief's wife came out to help Ding Xiaolan into the room to rest. As soon as Qi Lu sat down, a young man came out of the back room and poured him tea.

Although Qi Lu was a little shocked when he saw this familiar figure, the expression on his face remained unchanged at all, but he took the teacup and said with a smile: "Presumably you are Yang Bo?" ”

"Hey, how do you know my name?" The one who answered him was the Yang Bo who gave him meat to eat and water to drink on the road today, and then charged him a high price, and even wanted to kill him.

"My father told me your name." Qi Lu carefully observed every expression change on his face, and found that he was at ease without any inappropriate expressions.

"Brother Yang goes back to the descendants, I say hello to Uncle Yang, I wish him good health and all the best." At this moment, Yang Bo does not have the slightest market atmosphere, and his words and deeds are so gentle and elegant.

Qi Lu said: "According to the seniority, you still have to call me uncle." ”

"yes, I don't really know."

"Xiao Yang is right, you will know when you have time to flip through the ancestral genealogy." Yang Yi said: "You go to the village and invite Doctor Gu to treat the guests. Okay, uncle sit down for a while, I'll come when I go. Yang Bo answered.

Qi Lu chatted with the village chief for a while, and Doctor Gu came, followed by a few people.

Seeing these people, Qi Lu's smile froze, and the teacup almost fell to the ground. Although he had expected this strange situation to encounter himself, he really didn't expect it to come so quickly.

Because Dr. Gu was the one who was killed by Sailei, he was followed by the middle-aged man in the hotel, the boss and his wife, and the other two he already knew, namely Yang Ning and Yang Bo.

All the people who should have come have come, and the six dead people they saw along the way are now standing alive in front of Qi Lu!

So what kind of weird things will happen next, Qi Lu doesn't know, he can only wait quietly.

These people greeted Qi Lu with a smile, as if it was the first time they had met him.

Doctor Gu said, "My name is Gu Yuming, and I am a doctor in the village. ”

The middle-aged man said, "I'm Yang Shaotian." ”

The boss said: "Old Ji Anshan, she is my wife A Youdan." ”

Their appearance was no different from the dead people Qi Lu had seen, they were almost printed out of a mold, but the tone of their speech was not at all like those dead people.

Is this the resurrection of the dead? Qi Lu smiled bitterly, if they were ghosts, Qi Lu didn't think it was a trouble. But the situation he encountered today was probably the most terrifying and strange thing he had encountered in his life, so mysterious that he could not find a reasonable reason to explain it.

Qi Lu stubbornly accosted them, but fortunately, after they only chatted briefly, Dr. Gu proposed to go to Ding Xiaolan to see a doctor.

Ding Xiaolan had already woken up, and her mind was much clearer, and when she saw everyone coming in, she suddenly exclaimed, and the whole person shrank into a ball on the bed. It's no wonder that she, any girl would panic when she saw a group of dead people appear in front of her like ghosts.

Qi Lu stepped forward and hugged her and said softly: "Don't be afraid, Xiaoding, they are all villagers here." ”

"Ghosts, there are ghosts!" Ding Xiaolan's body trembled even more.

Dr. Ku said: "It seems that she was frightened. ”

Yang Shaotian said: "Well, she is not lightly scared. ”

"Doctor Gu, why don't you pick some herbs to treat her!" Yang Yi's words were of a commanding nature.

Qi Lu saw that Ding Xiaolan's mood was extremely unstable, for fear that she would be stimulated again, so he politely told Yang Yi and the others to let Ding Xiaolan have a good rest.

Hearing Qi Lu say this, Doctor Gu immediately said that he was going to prescribe medicine and dig herbs to say goodbye first, and Yang Yi and the others also left the room.

Qi Lu and Ding Xiaolan were left in the room, and Qi Lu saw that no outsiders were present, so he whispered to her: "They are really villagers, not ghosts." ”

"It's a ghost, it's a ghost, they're looking for me to ask for my life." Ding Xiaolan threw herself into Qi Lu's arms, and Qi Lu felt that her whole body was covered in cold sweat.

"Think about it, if it's a ghost, can they appear during the day, will they have a shadow?"

Ding Xiaolan's heart calmed down a little, and she began to feel that Qi Lu's words were not unreasonable. But in the blink of an eye, she thought of something terrible again, and asked in a trembling voice, "What if they are zombies?" ”

"Zombies don't come out during the day, and zombies are stiff and jump when they walk. By the way, the zombies are still wearing the official uniforms of the Qing Dynasty, what do you think they look like? ”

"They could be other monsters, too!" Ding Xiaolan was like an angry child, still refuting Qi Lu's words.

"Even if they are monsters, aren't there still me, the master! The funeral parlor has been cleaned up by me, what other demons and monsters can help me? Qi Lu talked a lot more, and finally convinced Ding Xiaolan that these people were ordinary villagers.

Qi Lugang breathed a sigh of relief, and heard her say again: "But why are they exactly the same as those dead people." ”

"Have you forgotten the fact that there are twin brothers in this world?" Qi Lu just lied casually, even he thought it was too far-fetched, but Ding Xiaolan believed it, which was the most suitable reason for her.

"Okay, I'm thirsty, pour me water." Ding Xiaolan, who returned to normal, began to be coquettish.

"Yes, my aunt."

While Ding Xiaolan was drinking water, Qi Lu whispered to her: "Wait for someone to ask, you will say that it is my fiancΓ©e." ”

"What, you want to hit me again?" Ding Xiaolan immediately became vigilant.

"Although they are not demons or ghosts, there is no guarantee that they are all good people, so we should be careful when we go out. Besides, my fiancΓ©e, we're not officially married yet, and we don't have to live together, but I'll definitely arrange for me to live next door to you. In case something happens, you can also keep me informed. ”

"Hmph, looking at your treacherous face, you know that you are uneasy and kind. If I really have something, won't I give you a mobile phone call and solve it? ”

"You are stupid, in this barren mountains and mountains, there will still be a signal on your mobile phone?"

Ding Xiaolan took out her mobile phone and looked at it, not to mention the signal, her mobile phone had been broken since she soaked in the river. Ding Xiaolan suddenly felt distressed, and couldn't help sighing.

"Don't be sad, I'll send you a new one when I go home." Qi Lu was afraid that she hadn't fully recovered, so he had to make a wish. Ding Xiaolan burst into tears and laughed.
