Chapter 61: Tracking

I swept around the yard and found that there was not even a single male except Zhang Hongsheng, so I couldn't help but ask curiously: "Zhang Hongsheng, what about those people this morning?" All in other yards? ”

Zhang Hongsheng, who was still smiling, listened to my question, and immediately became a little wary: "What are you asking for?" ”

I was a little amused in my heart, if I really had any idea, all of them had already been swept down by the beard in the morning, I really didn't know what he was guarding, but on the surface I hurriedly explained: "No, I don't mean anything else, just ask." ”

"They went out with Brother Li, and the rest of them are probably sleeping and playing cards in the house, these people are not serious all day long, I really don't know what to say about them." Zhang Hongsheng's mother (later known as Sister-in-law Zhang), who was drying clothes, answered my words quite kindly.

Then Sister-in-law Zhang didn't wait for me to answer, then turned to Zhang Hongsheng and said: "Hongsheng, these two girls have no malice, don't take out your black face and face people at every turn, I don't know, I really think we have something unsightly."

I was a little embarrassed: "Sister-in-law Zhang, don't say that, it's too abrupt for me to ask." ”

"I didn't even hear you abrupt, why did you say that you were abrupt?" Sister-in-law Zhang shook off the water from her hands and looked at me with a smile.

"I..." was just about to respond to Sister-in-law Zhang's words, when a strong knock suddenly came from the door, and everyone's faces almost changed, Zhang Hongsheng quickly ran to the door and asked in a serious tone: "Who?" ”

"I, old ginger, don't say anything, open the door! Something happened! There was an eager response from outside the door, and it seemed that something terrible had happened.

Shen Xue and I glanced at each other, a little unclear.

After the door opened, a middle-aged man with an honest appearance rushed in outside the door, his face was full of panic, and before Zhang Hongsheng closed the door, he immediately said eagerly: "Branch secretary, it's broken!" This is broken! The king's crooked mouth fell into the pit! ”

He called Zhang Hongsheng branch secretary?

"What?! The king crooked his mouth and fell into the pit? What happened? Why did you fall into it for no reason? The women who were washing clothes also stopped what they were doing, and stood up one after another, with a serious face, and Sister-in-law Zhang also asked out loud with a panicked face.

Old Jiang rubbed his hands, his tone was still a little trembling, his expression was stiff and he stared at the ground, as if he was trying to organize his language, and he only spoke after Sister-in-law Zhang urged him several times: "Isn't this another one?" Brother Li took us to arrest it, Wang crooked his mouth didn't know what was going on today, he was always in a bad mood, and when he threw that thing into the pit, he followed it with all his strength. What's going on there, you don't know what's going on, when we reacted to catch him, it was... I've been bitten several times. ”

During this period, I quickly glanced at Zhang Hongshen and found that there was an extremely impatient expression on his face, but the moment Sister-in-law Zhang turned her head to look at him, the expression immediately returned to its original state.

"Hongsheng, otherwise, let's go over and take a look, why do you say that this king's crooked mouth is not suitable for staying in that pit?"

"It's, it's just, he can't stay in that pit." The group of women behind Sister-in-law Zhang also spoke up.

Shen Xue and I glanced at each other, a little strange, the two of us were completely dizzy, what the hell is going on? Didn't you just say that Wang's crooked mouth fell into the pit and was gnawed? That is to say that there is something biting in the pit, and what is the biting thing in the current world... I guess I can think of it on my toes.

Since he was bitten, then Wang Crooked Mouth will not survive, and they must also understand this truth, but in that case, what does Sister-in-law Zhang mean when they say that Wang Crooked Mouth is not suitable to stay in the pit?

Motioned for her to go over and pull Zheng Rongrong, who was dancing with other children, back to her side, we probably didn't want to stay any longer.

Sure enough, as soon as Shen Xue pulled Zheng Rongrong back, Zhang Hongsheng came over and said to us with a stiff face: "Two, we have something to do, why don't you go back first, and when we deal with it here, you will bring the children to play?" ”

I smiled at him, "Since you have something to do, then we'll go first, and we'll come back when we're free." ”

Zhang Hongsheng nodded, opened the door for us, and after saying goodbye, we left the courtyard of Zhang Hongsheng's house.

After turning a corner, the more I thought about it, the more wrong it became, and I always felt that there seemed to be something I had to know, so I simply pushed Zheng Rongrong to Shen Xue: "Xiaoxue, you take Rongrong back first, and I'll go with them to see what the situation is." ”

Shen Xue was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and hurriedly shook her head and said, "How can this work?" How dangerous are you alone? Don't go, that's someone else's business, and it has nothing to do with us. ”

I shook my head: "No, no, no, I always feel that something is wrong, I have to go and see, these people are definitely not as normal as they seem on the surface, it's okay, don't worry, I'll be back in a while." ”

"But..."Shen Xue wanted to say something more, but I waved her hand and stopped: "Okay, okay, if they go on later, they should leave for a while, and I will be fine." Go back first. After speaking, without waiting for Shen Xue to answer, he returned to the alley just now.

stretched out his head and looked at it, and found that Zhang Hongsheng was going out with a few big men armed with kitchen knives, and Sister-in-law Zhang also followed the crowd.

They walked in the opposite direction to where I was, and a few of them were very fast, probably in a hurry. I paused, briefly guessed the distance between us, and the most appropriate distance to track, before quickly scurrying up and following.

Zhang Hongsheng and his entourage walked very fast, during which I didn't know if he noticed something, and from time to time he would look back and look at me, every time I scared me enough, but I was lucky to be narrowly avoided by me every time.

Soon after, after a bend, we stepped onto a small dirt road, which was very narrow, and was cultivated on both sides, much larger than the cultivated land on either side of the road we had seen when we came, and at first glance it was a flat open space except for a forest at the end.

Fortunately, there will be a firewood stack on both sides of the road from time to time, or an old tree that is growing well, which I can borrow as a cover to block my body.

After following them for a long time, it seemed that they had already walked out of the village, and when they were hesitating whether to continue to follow, a small piece of forest appeared in the distance, and the president was only one hundred and eighty trees, and there were many people standing bustling in the woods at the moment, and a few sharp-eyed people saw Zhang Hongsheng and others who arrived from a distance, and they came out of the forest early.

I hid behind a stack of firewood not too close to them, and secretly surveyed the group of them.

I'm glad that I've been learning for so many years and still haven't been myopia, although the distance is far away, I still rely on good eyesight and simple body shape speculation to see the few people who greeted him, it seems that Zhang Hongsheng considered whether to agree to us to live in the morning, and discussed with him the middle-aged people.

Instead of immediately returning to the woods, they stopped at a small tree in front of the woods, where a group of people seemed to be discussing something.

It was impossible to hear them speak, so I could only take advantage of this time to carefully examine the situation in the woods, although the woods were small, but the dead grass and tree trunks that were emerging still greatly affected my vision, and I saw nothing except the people walking back and forth in it for a long time.

Merely... In the crowd of people standing in the woods, I noticed a man who did not seem to appear in the morning, and although he was far away, his white hair was still very conspicuous.

I stared at the man for a long time, he was not very tall and seemed to be a little hunchbacked, and it was really impossible to see what he looked like too far away, but it seemed that his status in their group was very high, and there were several people around him who came forward to talk to him, all of whom bent down slightly to talk to him. In many ways, this gesture is usually a sign of respect for the other person.

I guess he is probably an older person in the village, so the corresponding status is also relatively high, and I can't help but feel a little funny in my heart, what's the use of being old? What's the use of having a high status? When the walking corpse comes to gnaw you, will they still not gnaw you because of your old age and high status?

How can it be? Even if your meat is old and sour, they will never be picky eaters.

It seems that this group of people does not have a specific understanding of the current world, they are still bound by that ridiculous relationship, the outside world has long been turned upside down, and there is no need for these ancient and degraded things at this moment, only combat power is needed to deal with the walking corpse.
