Chapter 44 The Red Corpse Puppet
"I feel like we've fallen into the enemy's trap." Tongtong emerged from my body and looked around warily.
The fog was thick around me, and the visibility was less than three meters, so I kept my head down and followed the bloodstains, and when I looked up, I found myself lost in the fog.
"Trap?" I suddenly felt a chill in my heart, "Will it be ...... who can trap us?"
I was halfway through my words, when I suddenly stopped, Tongtong understood what I meant, shook his head and said, "With his strength, it doesn't need to be so troublesome to catch us." ”
I nodded, since Tongtong's father is a Venerable Being, the strength of his subordinates should not be small, the first few mistakes are just because of his contempt and the negligence of his subordinates, and when he really has time to catch me and Tongtong, it will inevitably be a big disaster, and it will not be like now, so much energy needs to be wasted to set a trap.
"You go back to me first, watch out for accidents, and help me pay attention to the situation around me." I said to Tongtong.
Tongtong obediently returned to my body, the long-lost strength surged into his fist again, I carefully identified the direction, and found that I couldn't recognize any road at all, and took out my mobile phone to look, but there was no signal.
It seems that this place is indeed not simple.
I walked quietly in the fog, which was very quiet, but every now and then there was the crow of a crow, which sounded extremely eerie.
Suddenly, many black shadows appeared in the white mist, and those shadows were no more than half a person tall, standing in front of me in twos and threes, motionless, and I suddenly felt my scalp tingle and creepy.
"Those shadows are not alive, they are not living creatures, brother, be careful!" Tongtong reminded me in my heart.
I couldn't see the shadows for what they really were, and I didn't dare to move forward for a moment, but I didn't move, and the shadows didn't move. After a short confrontation, I finally relented, gritted my teeth and walked forward, and when I saw the true face of those black shadows, I was immediately relieved, it turned out that those black shadows were just tombstones.
Wait, tombstones? The nerves I had just relaxed tensed again, when did so many tombstones appear under the Fifth Ring Road?
I crouched down and looked at the half-man-high tombstone in front of me, and saw that it had a few lines of words carved crookedly, but it was so corroded and dimly lit that I couldn't make out what was written on it.
"Hee-hee...... Hee-hee-hee-hee......"
Suddenly, a chilling laugh came from all directions, and I trembled and stood up nervously, and now I had no thunder in my hands, and if anything happened, I would have to fight the enemy with my bare hands, which was not good news for me.
A strange sound came, I suddenly felt a chill down my spine, as if I was drenched from head to foot by a basin of cold water, the arm that had been cold slowly climbed up to my shoulder, I trembled, and suddenly turned around, but saw a rotten grimace appeared behind me, his lips had been eaten by rats, I could clearly see the old yellow teeth in his mouth, there were still fresh blood stains on the teeth, and unknown yellow mucus was constantly flowing out of his mouth......
"Get out!" Although I was scared, I still mustered up the courage, turned around and punched the grimace, the grimace screamed, and actually flew upside down for several meters, I fixed my eyes to see that this thing was not a ghost, their body was actually there.
The thing that I had knocked away stood up again, and when I saw his face, I almost couldn't help but vomit, his face frame had been shattered by the punch I had just given, and his facial features became more distorted, and even one of his eyes was hanging outside.
Tongtong said in my heart: "Brother, he is not a ghost, nor is he a living person. ”
I recalled what was recorded in the ancient book that Qin Xue gave me, and then said coldly: "It's a corpse puppet." ”
According to the ancient book records that Qin Xue gave me, there are really zombies in this world, and they are very common, relatively low-level zombies, IQ like beasts, only know how to suck human blood, eat human flesh, and hide in the mountains and forests, and high-level zombies can even go to the sky and the earth, invulnerable, extremely terrifying, such zombies have been able to show people with the face of a normal person, and even hide in the crowd, without any flaws.
According to the book, according to the cause of zombies, zombies can be divided into corpse puppets, corpses, corpse demons, corpse nightmares, etc., the cause of corpse puppets is because of the corpse infection of corpse poison, gathered by the surrounding resentment, such zombies, there is no too high IQ, only the most primitive beast desire, they have no pain, even if they break their hands and feet, they will still continue to act according to the beast's desire, the only thing that can completely solve them is to set fire to their bodies.
These zombies are similar to the zombies in the movies, but that's not what makes them scary, the scary thing is that they are quick and agile and like to hunt in groups......
Before I could remember the matter about the corpse puppet in my mind, Tongtong was already shouting in my heart: "Brother! Behind you! ”
I broke out in a cold sweat, and quickly looked back, I don't know when, all those tombstones fell to the ground, and in the low graves behind the tombstones, there were corpse puppets with no flesh and skin, only dry bodies, crawling out of the graves frantically!
If it's just a corpse puppet, it won't pose any threat to me, but there are at least dozens of corpse puppets in front of me, but it makes my scalp numb, so many corpse puppets, just stand in place and let me kill, I guess I will also cut until I am soft, not to mention that now I don't have a weapon in my hand, just relying on my fists, it is impossible to beat them.
"Run!"
I didn't hesitate at all, I turned around and ran, although I couldn't see the situation in front of me, but I knew that staying where I was would be a dead end!
After the possession of the spirit, I ran with all my strength even faster than Lingqing's sports car, I ran desperately along the path like a superman, to my surprise, those corpse puppets actually all chased up, I looked back, less than ten meters away from me, countless black shadows followed me closely, I felt creepy, did not dare to stop.
"They're all Red Zombie Golems!" Tongtong said in my heart.
Zombies not only have categories, but also have grades, from low to high are white fierce, red evil, purple armor, hair roar, blocking resentment, and the legendary drought fish, these levels correspond to the gray heart, white seal, yellow pages, black bones, red strong, and green in the ghosts, and the red corpse puppet that Tongtong said is equivalent to the white seal ghost.
Like the corpse puppets, the white-printed ghosts are really nothing in the eyes of Tongtong and me, but a group of white-printed ghosts has become very terrifying.
The biggest feature of the corpse puppet is that it is fast, I ran with all my strength, but I still couldn't get rid of them, Tongtong said in my heart: "Brother, if we continue like this, we will be chased to death sooner or later, they are all zombies, I don't know what tiredness is!" ”
"I know!" I looked back and saw that the corpse puppets were already faintly approaching me, "But what can I do!" This weird fog can't get out! ”
"This fog is not an ordinary fog, I think this fog is a bit like a formation, we must break this formation before we can escape." Tongtong said.
How do I know what the formation, it is even more impossible to break the formation, I can only do it in a hurry, I haven't answered Tongtong, I suddenly saw a small river in front of me, the river is very turbulent, the river surface is about ten meters wide, I was suddenly happy, this corpse puppet is not afraid of anything, but afraid of water!
Without the slightest hesitation, I jumped directly into the river, when I was a child, I often went to the river to swim with my friends in the village, so although the river was turbulent, but this short distance of ten meters was not a problem for me at all, plus the strength that Tongtong gave me, I swam to the opposite bank almost in an instant.
There were many strange boulders on the other side of the river, each of which was nearly one story high, and I didn't have time to discern the direction, so I quickly found a boulder and hid in it, and when I looked back, the corpse puppets were on the other side of the river, still refusing to give up, and kept roaring in my direction.
"Damn, there is such a terrible thing under the five rings, hasn't anyone found out for so long?" I said breathlessly.
Tongtong came out of my body and looked around thoughtfully: "Of course it can't be, these boulders alone can't escape everyone's eyes." I just said that these fogs were created by the formation, but now it seems that it is not so simple. ”
I looked down and thought for a while, and suddenly thought of a possibility: "Tongtong, with the IQ of the corpse puppet, it is absolutely impossible to make this formation, and I thought of another possibility: this formation is not to trap the people who come in, but to trap the corpse puppets inside." ”
Tongtong was stunned: "You mean, these corpse puppets are raised by people?" ”
I nodded: "There are so many corpse puppets, it is impossible for all of them to keep themselves from going out to hurt others, someone must have deliberately trapped them in the formation to raise corpses." The one who bit Grandma Hong Meng to death today should be the corpse puppet who happened to run out of the formation, and it knew that we were a threat to it, so it fled back, and we just strayed into this corpse-raising formation. ”
"According to my brother, it's not a trap, it's our own bad luck?" Tongtong said.
I just wanted to answer, but I seemed to hear something, and quickly retracted Tongtong into my body.
"What's the matter with these corpse golems?"
Suddenly there was a human voice behind the stone, and I peeked out to see that two men in black robes had appeared on the bank of the river at some point.
"They seem to be chasing something." One of the black-robed men said.
"Maybe some unlucky rat slipped in, let's get rid of them quickly, if the Holy Son sees this scene, he probably has to kill the two of us to be happy."
As he spoke, the two black-robed men took out a red bell and shook it gently across the river.
