Chapter 49: Skull Lake

"With your support speed, I'm not dead!" I screamed loudly and took a few more breaths before I felt a little more comfortable in my lungs.

My neck hurts, it feels like a rope stuck in the bungee jump, but the most serious thing is the waist, I feel that the lumbar vertebrae must be broken, and now my legs are completely unconscious.

It's really a teacher who died before he got out, he died in the hands of his own people, I wanted to shed tears when my back hurt, Lao Huang couldn't see the situation at all, and grabbed my hand and wanted to pull me up.

"Waist waist waist waist ......"

I screamed repeatedly, Lao Huang quickly let go, squatted down and lifted my clothes, my back hurt to death, and I couldn't move at all.

Sanji also came to help, and I saw that he was hiding in a corner of the house just now, and Brother Shen looked at me with a very stinky face, and he seemed to be very entangled, and I felt as if he wanted to apologize to me, and I was angry that I ran for no reason.

Brother Shen's speed and strength are not covered, just this moment I feel that he is better than Ah Chuan, but I don't know how to compare to Xiao Qi.

My back hurts so much, it's hard for me to think about some mess, the sensation in my leg is gradually returning, and it seems that my spine is not broken.

I feel bitter in my heart, I will always be the unlucky, and the next time I encounter danger, if I am the first to rush forward, it will be a pig.

Lao Huang turned me over, and he reached out and poked me in the back, and I immediately let out a scream.

"Dead Lao Huang, are you trying to murder Lao Tzu!"

As soon as I turned my head slightly, my waist hurt to death, Lao Huang laughed twice, raised his hand and pressed hard.

"I/Day!"

I screamed very loudly, but Lao Huang didn't stop, he smeared the ointment on his hand, and laughed to death: "This medicine has to be rubbed in, you didn't hurt your bones at all, call it a hair!" ”

I clenched my teeth, my lungs were about to explode, I didn't think Lao Huang had such strength before, but now it's all on my waist.

Lao Huang moved very quickly, he applied the ointment and put a few plasters on me, I felt hot on my waist, it didn't seem to hurt so much.

"I bought this medicine from the Miao people, they brought it with them when they went up the mountain to collect fungi, it is very easy to use to treat bruises, I guarantee that you will be alive and like a monkey tomorrow morning." Lao Huang muttered as he put the medicine away.

I hope it's okay, I don't want to drag my injured waist into the tomb to feed the zombies, Brother Shen has been squatting next to him and didn't speak, and now seeing that Lao Huang is busy with his work, he asked.

"What's the matter with you guys?"

Lao Huang explained, and Sanji showed a look of fear that suddenly dawned on him, but Brother Shen did not react.

"Sleep, I'll watch." It was a long time before he came up with a sentence.

Lao Huang nodded, he didn't like to talk to Brother Shen very much, but Sanji moved quickly and lay down, I guess Brother Shen asked him to jump into the dung pit, he could go.

I slept soundly with my waist hurting, and sure enough, it was safe to be guarded, and when I was woken up by Brother Shen, it was already dawn.

He didn't seem to sleep all night, I felt a little embarrassed, I moved my waist, it has gotten a lot better, although it still hurts, but running and jumping should be fine.

We left the ancestral hall, the sun was warm outside, it was a good weather, Lao Huang looked at the lake and was very excited: "I eat dried meat every day, my stomach is twisted, let's catch two fish and boil it." ”

Brother Shen's body moved, I felt that he wanted to stop Lao Huang, but he hesitated and stopped, Lao Huang walked straight to the lake, he looked down at the lake, then staggered back two steps, and ran back with a frightened face.

"Damn/It's all dead!"

Lao Huang screamed so loudly that I was startled, he ran to me, and I saw the sweat on his forehead.

Brother Shen was very calm: "I saw it last night." ”

"Then you still don't tell us?!" The horror on Lao Huang's face has not subsided.

"Can you still sleep after telling you?"

Lao Huang was silent, and I could see that he was holding his breath in his heart.

We walked up, and the only way to get to the cave on the other side was by the boat, I don't know if it was the one from more than a hundred years ago, but there was only one lone one one in the lake.

Although I was mentally prepared, when I saw the scene in the lake, my scalp exploded, and I saw that Bai Huahua's bones covered the entire bottom of the lake, and a thick layer was full of skeletons.

There are rows of wooden frames in the lake, those people are tied to the shelves and sink directly into the lake, for a long time, some of the wooden frames have rotted, and the skeletons have sunk to the bottom of the lake together with the rotten wood, and some can barely support it, and a broken skeleton with white flowers is standing upright, as if walking at the bottom of the lake.

God knows how many people are in there!

I felt weak in my legs, I didn't dare to look again, there were so many dead people in the lake, but the water was still very clear, we could see the bottom at a glance, and at that moment I felt like I had seen the River Styx.

The lake is not deep, at most four or five meters, those skeletons of different shapes or lying or standing, the old ones can no longer see the human form, and the latest ones are all white skeletons, the bones are snow-white, without a trace of flesh and skin.

There were clumps of black weeds in the water, and schools of fish that walked between the skeletons, snorting at the bones from time to time, and their eyes were red and unusually fat.

These fish all grew up eating human flesh, and the villagers here make a living by eating fish, and I think of the plate I smelled last night, and I feel my stomach turn upside down.

If it is cruel to cut the tongue, then eating this fish is simply no moral bottom line, all the calm in this lake are their ancestors, these people let their ancestors be eaten by fish, and indirectly eat their meat, tiger poison does not eat children, they are not as good as beasts at all.

I really hate the villagers here now, Brother Shen is right, they are not good people, they don't deserve to live in the world at all.

"It's all women and children, and there are men, a few tenths." Brother Shen suddenly spoke.

He was still watching, and there was no uncomfortable look on his face, but Lao Huang was very curious: "What do you mean?" ”

"The women are all about 40 years old, and they have a knife wound on the neck bone, and they should be hacked to death when they are unable to have children, and in order to save resources, the child may be disabled or hereditary."

Brother Shen said it lightly, but my heart was chilling, I don't know how he could see so much from a pile of bones, but he was too calm when he said this.

This person has such a strong psychological quality, who can torture him to the point of amnesia and madness?

The world I have seen is so kind, I have never been in contact with the real darkness, I am now standing at the junction of light and darkness and I am so frightened, if I see the real darkness, will I also go crazy?

I felt very uncomfortable, like a big hand was constantly grasping, and the reality in front of me and the fear in my heart made me want to give up.

I really regret it, and I remembered Ah Chuan's understatement again - Zhao Changze, you don't know anything at all.

My nose was very sore, Brother Shen handed the alcohol pot to Sanji, Sanji ran quickly to the snow-capped mountains in the distance to fetch snow, Lao Huang's face was very stiff, I must be even more unbearable than him.

"Damn, what a brute!" Lao Huang was talking to himself, his voice was full of resentment.

Almost all of the people in the lake are women and children, so where have the men gone?

I don't think they would be kind enough to bury men, there is so little resources here, they all need to hack women to feed fish to survive, how can they give up dead men?

Could it be that they will just eat men?

I was startled by the thought in my heart, and shook my head vigorously to get the thought out, but Sanchi had returned, and Brother God began to cook the broth.

I looked at the tumbling pieces of meat in the pot and felt sick, and the smell of the meat seemed to mix with the fishy smell of the fish, making me more and more nauseous.

Lao Huang was also like a vegetable, he definitely couldn't eat it, he took out two bags of compressed biscuits from his baggage and handed me one bag.

I took it, far away from the alcohol stove, but the smell of the smell was still rushing into my nostrils, and I just wanted to vomit now, and I couldn't eat at all.

Lao Huang is the same, but he still desperately stuffs it into his mouth, I know that I can't be hypocritical, and no one knows if there is a chance to eat when I enter the tomb.

But I really couldn't eat it, I took a few bites, and I felt like the food was stuck in my throat and couldn't get down, so I had to give up, and if I ate it again, I would vomit.

I ran far away to the snowy mountains to eat a few bites of snow, but as soon as I saw the lake, I kept gagging, and I always felt that the corpse water in the lake had polluted the snowy mountains.

I walked a few hundred meters down the valley where I came, and then I picked up the snow and put it in my mouth, and the cold snow melted in my mouth, and I felt a little better.

I took a few deep breaths and let the cold wind blow my brain clear, I really wanted to give up, but Lao Huang was pulled by me, and Brother Shen was also going because of me, Sanji didn't have to take any risks, I turned out to be the culprit.

Now that I, the most important person, want to quit, how can I be worthy of them, I seem to see Ah Chuan's playful face, he is saying, Zhao Changze, you can't.

I can do it, I told myself, and began to stride back, and I saw Lao Huang standing at the mouth of the valley in the distance.

"People are iron rice is steel, hurry up and eat!" Lao Huang handed me the remaining half bag of compressed biscuits.

I took it and stuffed it into my mouth, all of it was psychological, as long as I didn't look at it, I didn't think about it.

We repacked our gear and walked towards the bridge over the lake, and I walked in the middle of the bridge, looking straight ahead, trying not to think about the lake below.

The boat at the head of the bridge was almost just enough to fit the four of us, and the boat was also made of pure wood, with no color or pattern, and it looked very simple.

The boat was so old that the wood around the edges had cracked so much that it seemed to break in half if touched, and if we fell into this lake, we might as well die.

"I've brought a rope, let's go down the hill over there, this boat is too dangerous." My voice was hoarse.

At the end of the day, I still don't want to have any contact with the lake, but going to the other side means taking a long detour.

Brother Shen didn't say anything, he jumped directly into the boat, and the boat shook a few times, but it didn't break in half.
