Chapter 62: The Smoke of the Cave

Yet no matter how ridiculous these things may seem, believers have no doubt about them.

Murong Yuhua was also fortunate to see this "Bodhisattva", sitting in the midst of everyone's offerings, and everyone knelt down to her reverently, clasping their hands. Her left hand was bandaged, and blood was oozing out. Murong Yuhua could always smell a putrid stench in the cave, at first he thought it was because of the patients who had been transformed into corpses, but then he slowly realized that these smells were also coming from the woman in front of him who claimed to be a bodhisattva.

She was kind and kind-eyed, dressed in a white robe, and she really sat on a lotus seat like a bodhisattva, with a huge and heavy wooden fish in front of her, and people followed her, chanting and praying with her percussions.

The people who are still awake and can move around are already less than twenty, so it is very simple to find out the composition of the subordinates and subordinates, and it will take less than half a day to recognize it. The rest of those who were sent to the deserted temple in the early days, and then followed the Bodhisattva to the cave, have long since been removed, and then the corpses have been pushed into the dark river by the other people who are still alive. Murong Yuhua looked at the flowing undercurrent and was worried, he knew that pushing the corpse of the plague into the river like this would inevitably cause a catastrophe next.

However, it is easy to enter this cave, but it is difficult to leave, and the believers supervise each other, and if they are not careful, they may also be tied into a lotus seat and punished by the needle in the heart of the eyebrows.

Murong Yuhua tried to figure out where the caves here lead, but they were so intricate that many places didn't know where they would eventually lead. He walked around the cave for a long time, and finally returned to the place where there was a candle flame.

When some believers saw him coming from a dark place, they asked him where he had gone. Murong Yuhua hurriedly excused himself, saying that he had just arrived and was lost, and it took him half a day to find out.

However, the search for half a day was not all fruitless, and as he walked around along the undercurrent, he suddenly smelled something other than the smell of blood rancidity.

It's gunpowder.

Murong Yuhua actually had matches on him, but after smelling the smell, he didn't dare to light a fire to find out. I can only grope around, and I have roughly estimated the amount.

Regardless of whether the gunpowder was used against the county town or kept for their own use, it at least showed that this group of believers was by no means bent on living in peace. Coupled with the corpses that kept flowing outward along the undercurrent, things were far more embarrassing than Murong Yuhua had imagined.

The believer found Murong Yuhua and took him back to the place where he usually recites the scriptures and joined everyone. Except for Murong Yuhua, the faces of the people here were pale and gray, obviously no longer taking medicine, and after praying wholeheartedly, all this did not have a curative effect.

The Buddha did not let them recover one by one and recover as before, on the contrary, without the help of medicine, everyone's condition became more serious. Everything gathered in Murong Yuhua's mind, the water that flowed into the surrounding villages, the seriously ill and dying patients here, the Bodhisattva who was full of benevolence and morality was actually cheating, and the gunpowder in the cave......

All of this made his mind very confused, and just as he was worried about it, he heard the girl who had found him come all the way from the cave, shouting to the Bodhisattva in a panic.

"Oh no! The county town has sent away the dog again! ”

But the Bodhisattva was calm and relaxed, "Let him, let him." This is not something that ordinary people can find. ”

The girl said, "That man looks very fierce, and he has arrested me and tried to question me." Fortunately, I escaped alertly. My hand was wounded because of her. But because of this, she stained my blood! If she is sick, the Bodhisattva must not save her. ”

But the Bodhisattva shook his head and said, "You are harming others, and you must not do it again in the future." No matter how vicious a person is, he will not sin to death, as long as he is willing to repent sincerely, the Buddha will cross him. ”

The child said, "With such a woman, the Buddha will cross her?" ”

"All the people in the world of Buddha, no matter who they are, no matter whether they are men or women, no matter what path they choose." The Bodhisattva beckoned to her and asked her to sit down and recite sutras. However, Murong Yuhua raised his head suddenly when he heard this child's description.

A woman, very fierce - could it really be Gu San?

He wanted to ask the little girl for clarification, but after the girl sat down in front of the Bodhisattva, she really devoted herself to reciting the scriptures, and never walked out again, obediently sitting on the futon motionless.

If Gu San comes, maybe there is a way to survive these things. Murong Yuhua thought so, and slowly thought about the plan in his mind.

A short time later, he heard a dog barking.

It's hard to perceive the passage of time in the cave, and it's all up to someone to report the hours at regular intervals. The barking of dogs sounded near evening, and then a flock of chickens ran out of a cave.

The believers, who had not eaten a good meal of meat for a long time, saw the flock of chickens scurrying, and they all stood up one after another, stretched their necks and looked around. Some people are even eager to try and want to pounce.

At this juncture, I suddenly heard an explosion above the melting roof. The entire cave shook, and people fled in panic.

In the smoke of gunpowder, Murong Yuhua watched Gu San slowly walk from the firelight, and the muzzle of the gun was directly aimed at the woman sitting in the center.

At the moment when she was about to pull the trigger, Murong Yuhua suddenly stood up, rushed forward and grabbed her hand and was about to run out. Gu San saw that it was him, and hurriedly wanted to break free, "You let go!" These people are all infected, and if they mutate and leave here, it will cause problems for everyone around! ”

Murong Yuhua hurriedly explained, "They all have weapons, you and I are invincible!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard gunshots behind him, and as he said, the previous Bodhisattva immediately summoned his followers to take up the weapons in their hands and stop the two men.

Gu San took the time to shoot backwards, her marksmanship was so accurate that everyone who pursued her fell under the bullets she fired.

"What the hell are you doing, since I dare to come alone, I'm ready." As she spoke, she shook Murong Yuhua's hand away, took off the grenade, and threw it forward directly.

There was another roar, and few people in the cave rushed forward. Gu San stepped forward again, and Murong Yuhua grabbed her again, "These people just want to live, don't kill them all, right?" ”

"Did you know that there are mutated zombies out there?" Gu San refilled the bullets one by one, and then loaded them, "They have no chance of survival." Only when they die will more people live. ”

"But ......"

The hay and futons in the cave were ignited under the attack and bombardment of the cave, and now they burst into flames, illuminating the cave as bright as day. The injured people fell to the ground and crawled and struggled, and some even began to mutate, slowly holding their hands to get up. One by one, the eyes of these people slowly turned blue-gray, and they all became the people in the mouth of the "Bodhisattva" who could not recover from their evil deeds in the end.

But who will be able to recover? It's a hoax in the first place, and there's no such thing as a resurrection.

The few believers who were still awake watched the people around them go crazy one by one, and crawled towards the Bodhisattva in some collapsed ways, "Bodhisattva, they ...... Aren't they sincere enough? Why didn't the Buddha temper them, and why did the Buddha let them show such a cruel side? ”

And their bodhisattvas? Their bodhisattva shot directly into the eyebrows of the zombies who were chasing after them and trying to attack them.

Blood splattered on the faces of the believers at her side. The believer looked at the cold and heartless woman in front of him, and he couldn't help but ask loudly, "You killed him?" ”

However, he was greeted by bullets and death.

The result of that woman's shooting was no less than Gu San's, and a few bullets dealt with all the mutated believers.

Gu San looked at her action and turned his head sideways, "It's not me who is 'driving them out' now." ”

Murong Yuhua frowned, "These people followed you here, and I have already tried every means to stop her, why do you still want to kill them?" ”

"Don't you believe it at all? You don't have to act with me there, do you? The "Bodhisattva" pointed his gun at Gu San and Murong Yuhua, "I am obviously hiding here, and I have never gone out to fight anyone, why do you just refuse to let us go?" We have been driven out of the deserted temple at the beginning, we are desperate, we have found a way to live, why do we need to block all the ways of life! ”

Gu San didn't speak, but Murong Yuhua asked first, "If you really want to hide here, why do you need to prepare guns and save gunpowder?" Why do you throw people who have died of disease into the water? ”

He had just finished asking, but Gu San let out a sneer first, "Do you also need to ask?" She was sick and died not long ago, so she naturally hoped that everyone in the world would be like her. ”

"But isn't she a bodhisattva?" Murong Yuhua looked at her, "But didn't you make this decision because you wanted everyone to recover?" I don't believe you, but I know that all those who are dead at your hands believe in you! You...... You can't trample on their trust like that! ”

The woman who proclaimed herself a bodhisattva looked at Murong Yuhua with some incredulity, "Since you didn't take it seriously, how could you say such a thing?" Don't you see that I'm just doing my best to get rid of the dead and corpse-changing ones one by one? I don't understand, what you're thinking. As for the corpses in the river......"

She laughed out loud and lifted her chin towards Gu San.

"You're right, I just can't get used to why we have to be sent to a deserted temple to die when we are sick, but others can stay at home safe and sound? Obviously, the one who killed the person was this official who ate and drank spicy food, why did he finally want us to send him to death! I'm not convinced! Her eyes gradually became a little crazy, "I know that as long as we stay in the broken temple, one day someone from Qingping County will come and kill all of us." I also know that even if there is one left there, they may tell the officials above us where we are. ”
