Chapter 63: The Walking Dead That Didn't Rot
Zhang Hongsheng and his entourage stayed in the forest for about ten minutes, and then they all walked out of the forest one after another.
The white-haired man walked in the front, and a few people next to him seemed to be discussing something with him, Zhang Hongsheng walked at the back of the crowd with Zhang's sister-in-law, at this moment there was no one else around Zhang's sister-in-law except Zhang Hongsheng herself, and I don't know what happened to those women, all of them were far away from Zhang's sister-in-law at the moment, and several people got together and kept talking to each other.
They walked in the direction of the village, and as they were about to get to the woodstack where I was hiding, I hurried around to the other side, clinging to the stack, waiting for them to pass.
As they passed by, I vaguely heard a deep, powerful, slightly old voice say, "Only when you are a child, but not at any other time." ”
It took me a while to remember what I meant.
When the group had crossed the stack of firewood and could not hear the conversation, I dared to slowly poke my head out and glance out, to make sure that they were far away, and then began to ponder the words of the white-haired old man, 'When is it okay?' 'Zi Shi refers to the modern era from eleven o'clock to one o'clock in the morning, that is... What will they do tonight?
Since the road was straight, I waited in place for a while, and when they all turned into the village, I came out from behind the firewood stack, turned my head to look at the small forest in the distance, and then turned back to make sure that Zhang Hongsheng and his party could no longer see it, so I took two deep breaths and walked towards the forest.
For so long, I thought I had become an iron wall, in the previous popular words, it was definitely a female man, but this would be walking towards the forest, and my heart rate was still flying up at a strange speed that I could feel.
I kept comforting myself in my heart, it's okay, it's okay, so many walking corpses have been cut down, what is a broken forest? But it doesn't seem to be of much use.
It would be afternoon, and the snow had stopped, and some of the sun was still falling, and the reflection of the snow was quite bright, which invisibly gave me a sense of courage.
Standing in front of the forest, he took several deep breaths before finally gritting his teeth and walking in.
The snow on the ground was very thick, and there were many footprints on the snow in the forest, and I followed the footprints, trembling step by step, into the forest, and just about two or three meters forward, I heard a voice from the forest, as long as I heard the sound, I could tell what was shouted in a millisecond. - The Walking Dead.
Probably because I usually cut down too many walking corpses, and I have been quiet in my ears for too long, I even have a sense of intimacy when I hear the cry of the walking corpse.
Funnily shook his head, pulled the knife out of the knife bag and held it in his hand, just now he was cranky by the white-haired old man and them, this will be regarded as being pulled back to the current real world by the cry of the walking corpse, and suddenly he felt less afraid.
I took another step towards the source of the walking corpse's cry, and along the way I noticed that the footprints on the ground also led to the source of the sound.
Looks like they must have gathered in front of the grave.
A little in front of the densest part of the footprints, a deep pit appeared, and the cry of the walking corpse came from this pit, and I reached out and looked inside... And then almost instantaneously I confirmed my previous suspicion that it was definitely some kind of activity going on.
This pit is not big, but it is very deep, at least more than two meters, and there is about a few tens of centimeters of water in the pit, maybe the snow has melted in it recently, but this is not the point, the point is that this strange pit was actually dyed red by unknown things, I can be sure that the red is definitely not blood, because I don't smell a particularly strong smell at all.
There weren't as many walking corpses in the pit as I had guessed, but there were only three, and two were still small children.
It's just that for some reason, they didn't rot, their faces were innocent, and there was no trace of the anger of the living, but looking at their mouths full of blood, I could be sure that they were definitely walking corpses after eating 'something'!
There was a corpse lying in the pit that had been gnawed to pieces, and this should be the king's crooked mouth.
There are many yellow runes floating on the water surface of the pit, and there are several black fires on the edge of the pit, and there are many pieces of paper money scattered around.
I crouched down and looked around the pit with my eyes, and the three walking corpses all turned their heads up and screamed at me, glancing at them, I wrapped a handful of snow in my hands and threw it at them, making sure there was nothing special in the pit, I clapped my hands and stood up.
So far, except for the fact that these walking corpses have not decomposed, nothing strange has been found in other places for the time being.
I glanced at the walking corpses again, and wondered what was it that kept them from rotting.
I can't think of a reason for it alone, I can't help it, I can only shake my head, and prepare to go back first, and when I see Suotian, ask him, maybe he will know what the reason is.
He picked up a piece of paper money from the ground and put it in his pocket, turned and left the woods.
When I returned to the village, I specially turned to Zhang Hongsheng and looked in front of their yard, and found that the gate was closed, which was understandable, the point was that Zhang's sister-in-law's crying was constantly coming from inside, the voice was terrible, and from time to time the cry also carried two words that I didn't understand at all.
After listening to it for a while, in addition to Sister-in-law Zhang's crying in the courtyard, there was only Zhang Hongsheng's occasional sentence: "Mom, don't cry." "Just as I was about to go up and put my ear to their door to listen more closely, someone suddenly touched me on the back, and I almost screamed.
I subconsciously wanted to draw the dagger, but the hand that had just touched the knife bag was suddenly held down by a warm hand, and I was stunned... Hurriedly turned around, and Leng Buding met the dark eyes of the lock sky.
Without waiting for me to react, Suo Tian made a silent gesture at me, and then pulled me and walked back.
I followed him in a daze for a while, and after some distance from Zhang Hongsheng's yard, I reacted, cleared my throat and said, "Why did you come here?" ”
"Shen Xue is back, you haven't come back." Suotian still dragged me away, and after a pause, he turned his head to look at me, with no expression on his face, and continued: "I was there when I was in the woods." ”
I'm a little stunned now, in the woods? Suotian also went to that forest?
"How could it be, I didn't even notice anyone around."
Suotian turned his head back, stared at the road ahead and shook slowly: "That's normal." ”
"What's normal? How can it be normal? It's so empty, if you're there, I'll see you! "It's unlikely, but I think he's joking.
Suotian still didn't look at me, and spoke slowly again: "I see you stuffing the dead man's money in your pocket." ”
I'm dumbfounded... Unconsciously twitched the corners of his mouth... This man speaks so badly. Reach into your pocket and hold the piece of paper money, this guy was really there just now?
Quietly throwing the paper money on the ground, I asked, "Since you're here, why didn't you just come out?" "Anyway, this was originally picked up to prove that place with the lock sky, and now that people have seen it with their own eyes, there is no need to keep such an obscure thing.
After walking forward for a while, the lock genius answered my words: "It's more interesting to see you shrink your head and brain alone." ”
The corners of my mouth twitched even more...
When we returned to our yard, Yangyang, Shen Xue, Shen Feng, Jundi, they all stretched their necks and waited at the door, I and Suo Tian just turned a corner, and they were seen by a few of them from a distance, and they all rushed over, and a few people pushed the lock that was pulling me aside, and a few people looked at me up and down, left and right, probably to confirm that I was safe, and the criticism meeting began again.
"Sister! What's going on with you lately? Are you crazy? Brain-chopping walking corpses, right? How many times have you done this? Who are you going to stalk? Can you be reliable? What are you doing about other people's villages? What are you going to see? Yang Yang should have been worried, and he was very excited to say a few words. But after all, I'm a sister who pulls him up with a handful of and urine, how can I allow this kid to kick his nose and face like that? Just as I wanted to open my mouth to scold him, Shen Xue interrupted me and picked up again.
"I can't even shout at you, I usually educate us to be the first to be the way, and it's my turn to be so no-nonsense. We won't listen to what you say next time, because you can't do it yourself. What do you say all day about team assistance? I think you're clearly an individualist. ”
"It's not. Today is because..."
"Pull it down! You don't want to be! One day when something really happens, you'll be comfortable! Shen Feng also gave me a blank look.
“XXXXXXX”
There was no chance for me to speak, and the few of them kept walking from the intersection to the courtyard without stopping. It wasn't until the end, when there were probably no words, that a few of them gasped and stopped.
I'm almost covered in black lines... Even though I knew they were worried about me, it would inevitably feel like a bloody dog.
