"Someone who ate zombie meat?"

This sentence sounds fresh, and it is also a little weird.

"What do you mean?"

I asked curiously.

"Just like the literal meaning, people eat the flesh of zombies and are corrupted by corpse qi, so they grow fangs, and the green gas they spit out is corpse qi, and their bodies are mutated and much harder than ordinary people. However, it is not a zombie, and certainly not a human, it tends to be a monster. ”

It seems that Lingyan knows something, who would eat zombie meat in a normal person? Are you full?

"Zombie meat is delicious?"

I asked again with a frown.

"Who knows, I haven't eaten either. But......" Lingyan changed his words, "I heard that in the past, there were some old fellows on the road who would refine the walking corpse, and then give the flesh of the walking corpse to the goblins and ghosts, and as for what it would become in the end, I can't say." ”

The circle is very large, and many rumors and secrets are not actually understood by so many people. I've also gained a lot of knowledge, and as for why this monster in front of me eats zombie meat, I'm afraid I won't be able to figure it out for a while. There are at least three suspicions in it, the first is a sentence from the old monk at the beginning, he said that he could no longer suppress this monster. In other words, the old monk knew about the existence of this monster early on, and the monks in the temple also knew about it before they left one after another. So who built this temple here, and who let the old monks keep the old temple all the time? The second suspicion lies in the monster itself, even if it eats zombie meat and becomes a monster, but there is that brand behind it, it is very likely to belong to a former sect organization, or even a master among the elderly as Lingyan said. So why is it so widely dispersed? What exactly does this mark represent? Third, in fact, I found out that the real target of this transaction was not a ghost at the beginning, and the beads were mixed on the road early in the morning, and the information should be quite accurate. At the beginning, it was said that it was to catch ghosts, but I didn't expect to end up with the ancient wind demon, who attacked the dead people in the village? Ghost Tiger? But why attack a village? It seems that the matter on the side of the ancient wind demon has nothing to do with this temple, but in the end, it is still implicated. Isn't there some behind-the-scenes manipulation behind this?

There are a lot of suspicions, and they are messy. It kept flooding into my mind, and my head hurt when I thought too much. After sighing, he said: "This matter is also over, what we agreed before will not change, right?" ”

"No, I will never go back on what I promised."

Lingyan replied very cheerfully.

smiled, so it seems that this desperate effort is not too much of a loss. Standing up from the ground, the ghost tiger teeth fell into the burning house, and it is estimated that it will not be able to get it back, and even if it is found, it may turn into a pile of coke. Accompanied Lingyan back to the village, the atmosphere in the village was still quite tense. The fat man pulled Lingqian and didn't let go all night, and the two strong men didn't let the fat man go out with shotguns, and the two sides were in such a stalemate.

It wasn't until I came back with Lingyan that the two sides eased up. Lingqian was also surprised that I could come back alive, but she didn't ask for details, and I didn't want to say more. After a few words of explanation, the two sides separated from the two rooms to heal and rest.

The fat man and I lived in Luo Qiong's house, the place was quite spacious, there were a few animal skins hanging at the door, and there were no dogs, but there was an old shotgun hidden at home, and the rifling was almost smoothed.

The home is very simple, there are no electrical appliances, and of course there are basically no household appliances in the village.

I slept for a long time during the day, and I didn't wake up hungry until night, and when I got to the yard, I saw the fat man and Luo Qiong eating, and there were a few dough cakes on the table, and a pot of broth, which smelled very good.

"Where's the meat?"

I hurried over with my index finger.

"The wild rabbit that Luo Qiong went up the mountain to hunt at noon is fragrant, eat it quickly. By the way, there is still some wine, I exchanged food stamps with people at the entrance of the village, you can taste it. ”

The fat man poured me a bowl, it was a white dry brewed by Orion in the mountains, and it smelled a faint fragrance, and it was not too strong to drink it, but this wine had a lot of stamina, and it was easy to get drunk.

Everyone chatted casually, and after eating a full meal, I thought about it and said, "Luo Qiong, I want to ask you something." ”

The kid vaguely agreed as he drank the soup.

"Brother Cui and I estimate that we will leave the day after tomorrow, we are not too seriously injured, and we can set off after a few days of rest. Before leaving, my brother asked you, do you want to be a hunter for the rest of your life and wander around this mountain? ”

Luo Qiong put down the bowl and looked at me with some sneer, with some doubt in his eyes.

"Hey, let's keep it simple! Your brother wants you to follow us, are you willing to go to Shanghai with us? Although there is no guarantee that you will be rich, we will not starve you with a bite to eat. Of course, if you don't want to go, we won't force you. ”

The fat man thought I was too abrasive, and opened his mouth to shout.

I smiled and didn't speak, just nodded at Luo Qiong. The kid lowered his head and thought about it, then hesitated a little, and said, "Let me think about it, okay?" ”

"It's okay, anyway, we'll leave the day after tomorrow, you can think about it tomorrow. If you don't want to go, the two of us will have the opportunity to come to Da Heishan to play with you again in the future. Everyone is also in the same boat of life and death, and they are all brothers. Come on, one! ”

The fat man took the lead in raising the wine bowl, and the three of them touched a glass, which was dry in their throats and hot into their stomachs. His whole body shook, and he smoked and laughed.

Life has been in a hurry for decades, and it has been a lifetime of chic and chic sprinkles.

Early the day after tomorrow, the fat man and I packed our bags and prepared to take the village's ox cart down the mountain.

"This kid didn't come?"

I asked, smoking a cigarette.

"Well, I didn't see it, forget it, the mountain is reluctant to leave the house. Relying on the mountain to eat the mountain, they feel that they have no sense of belonging when they leave the mountain. Let's go......"

The fat man and I couldn't help but feel a little sorry, but in fact, I hoped that Luo Qiong would appear. Just as he was getting into the ox cart, there was a sudden shout from behind. I looked back and saw Luo Qiong, the kid running with a canvas bag waving his hand.

"Hey, this kid is really here!"

The fat man said with a laugh.

I nodded, and Luo Qiong got into the ox cart and said with a smile: "I think I still have to see the outside world, how long and insightful, but I don't have the money to take the train." ”

"What are you afraid of, I have! In the future, we will break into the world together, and we will definitely make a name for ourselves. ”

To this day, I still vividly remember the scene at that time, the rising sun was slowly poking its head out, the sun was still very soft, and the sky was still a little dark. The fat man stood on the ox cart with his back to the sun and made a charging gesture, Luo Qiong scratched his head, smirking like a child. And I smoked a cigarette, leaned against the rickety ox cart fence, looked up at the sky, the hair I hadn't seen for a long time fell in front of my eyes, and the embarrassing stubble had begun to harden.

I wore an old-fashioned black leather jacket, but I didn't look like I grew up in Shanghai at all.

"I want to be an eagle flying high in the sky, and every time I flick my wings, I can fly through the forest. Overlord of the sky, fearless and free fighter ......"

I whispered softly in my mouth, Luo Qiong looked at me strangely and asked, "Brother Shan, what are you talking about?" ”

"Don't fucking ask him, this guy has committed another literary disease, and he must be writing poetry. Look at him, he looks like a bitter intellectual, haha......"

The three of us laughed and hit the road, back from the forest to the cement world.

After returning to Shanghai, my parents forced me to go to work, so they found a store for me to copy soy sauce, the so-called soy sauce was actually sold in bulk at that time, people took money and empty bottles to buy, and I filled the bulk soy sauce for others. This job is very easy, I am often in a daze during the day, the waiter in the store chats all day long, and I secretly read a book.

"What time do you kid get off work?"

The fat man came to me on Friday and yelled at the door. I looked at the clock and said, "A quarter of an hour to go." What's wrong? Want to treat me to dinner? ”

"You've invited me to almost the same, and I haven't seen you treat me even after I go to work. Luo Qiong's kid I arranged to live at home, and during the day today, Zhuzi came to look for me. ”

When the fat man said this, I suddenly became nervous. It's been a while since I came back from Great Black Mountain, and I haven't found the whereabouts of the beads.

"I made an appointment at seven o'clock tonight, and I will go to the Jufu Restaurant next to my house, and Luo Qiong and I will go."

As soon as the fat man said the place, I immediately nodded, it was time to meet the beads!
