Chapter Seventy-Nine: A Strange Disease
"Guan'er, are you alright?" Zhou Yu threw down his bow and arrows and ran over from the rockery not far away, but saw that Qiao Wan's face was covered with blood, and he only felt that his heart was like a knife, so he hugged her gently, "Guan'er, are you okay?" Don't scare me......"
"Zhou Lang, I saw my brother." Qiao Wan was stunned.
Zhou Yu thought that she was hallucinating on the line between life and death, and was distressed: "It's okay, it's okay Wan'er-" while hurriedly wiping the blood stains on her face with a handkerchief.
Qiao Wan struggled to stand up, but Zhou Yu hurriedly pulled her, only to find that the clothes on her back had been soaked with blood. exclaimed: "You are injured, let me see if Yan is serious?"
"It's okay, it's just a little bit of skin." Qiao Wan replied lightly, stood up straight and looked straight at the tall and thin figure.
It's not like it at all, my brother won't be this extremely thin body, he won't be such a furrowed face, and besides, he has been dead for many years. Maybe I was in a trance just now, and I really saw it wrong.
Su Yong was squatting there studying the corpse of the green-haired monster, and suddenly, a shocked thought flashed, and he suddenly understood why all this was about, but his brain was completely stunned as if something had exploded.
"Mr. Su—" Zhou Yu's voice sounded behind him.
Su Yong didn't have time to listen to him, so he stood up and pulled them to run, "Hurry up!" ”
The two of them didn't know why, and when they followed him to the door of this mansion by moonlight, Su Yong suddenly stopped. Qiao Wan took the time to gasp and said loudly: "Zhou Ping, they are still inside!"
Zhou Yu replied to her, "They're fine, the monster threw them out—"
"Don't talk!" Su Yong warned sharply.
The three of them fell silent for a moment, and Zhou Yu's face tightened, because he also heard the voice......
Su Yong covered his mouth, signaled them to silence and quietly hid in the room, and as soon as he closed the door, he heard the heavy footsteps gradually approaching, becoming clearer and clearer, it seemed that it was coming this way......
Qiao Wan was about to cry, what kind of demons and monsters are these! Zhou Yu hugged her tightly and protected her in his arms, but his intestines were about to repent—he shouldn't have lost his bow and arrow so easily just now, but he didn't expect that there was more than one monster here, and he had learned their power before, and hand-to-hand combat could not be their opponent at all.
The footsteps were getting closer, and even its heavy gasps could be heard, and it was lingering in the doorway......
Qiao Wan didn't even dare to come out, grabbed Zhou Yu's hand, only felt that his palms were also full of sweat, it turned out that he would also be nervous, it seems that this time the game is really over......
Suddenly, the monster didn't know whether it heard or smelled something, and kicked their door open with force......
Qiao Wan only felt that he had stopped breathing, and closed his eyes tightly. At the same time, a dart flew straight into the monster's eyebrows, causing it to freeze and fall to the ground in an instant.
Su Yong quickly stood up and probed the snort of the fallen monster, and sure enough, there was no breath.
"Mr. Su, what's going on—" Zhou Yu looked at him suspiciously.
"Ancient medical books record that a long time ago in the Xia and Shang period, there was a strange disease called plague in the Central Plains, and the bones of the infected people will change all over the body, resulting in a huge body size, and the strangest thing is that their bodies will be full of green hair, afraid of sound and light, and only eat raw meat, especially human flesh."
"You mean, they're all human? ——" Qiao Wan covered his mouth wide in horror.
"Yes, ancient books also record that people infected with the plague will become unrecognizable, not afraid of knives and guns, ordinary weapons can not hurt them at all, only the center of the eyebrows is a fatal hole, if it is inserted by a sharp weapon, it will kill them with one blow. Back then, Shang Wang Yongji discovered their weakness and was able to completely eradicate the epidemic, but he didn't expect that the plague, which had disappeared for nearly two thousand years, had now reappeared in Nanjun. ”
Zhou Yu was also shocked, took a deep breath and said: "It seems that it is not that there is no one living here, but they are afraid of sound and light, so they all come out to activities at night, and it will be as quiet as a dead city for half a day." ”
Su Yong said: "Exactly, I'm afraid that now, the streets are full of this kind of powerful green-haired monsters." ”
Qiao Wan asked in a trembling voice, "You just said that this plague is contagious?" ”
Su Yong said lightly, "Hmm".
