12. Blood Tree Golem
Sun Jian first arrived in Fangjia Village six years ago, when there were already ten people in the village who fell ill, and all of them were children.
According to Sun Jian's understanding, the first blood-sucking child appeared in the village a year ago, when a family surnamed Wang was changing the house, and as a result, a meat ball the size of a watermelon was dug out from under the house, and it would move when touched. The Wang family thought that this might be a treasure, so they wanted to find someone to appraise it, but before they could invite someone, something strange happened.
The night the ball was dug up, a reddish blood-like liquid began to seep out of its surface. There was a six-year-old child in the Wang family, maybe a child was curious, he ran over and took a bite while the adults were not paying attention, and then he hugged the meat ball like crazy and cleaned all the blood and water on the surface of the meat ball.
The family is afraid that something will happen to the child and wants to snatch the meat ball, but as long as someone is close, the child will attack people with a bite and a bite, and the strength is particularly great, zuihou is four adults go up together to reluctantly separate the child from the meat ball. Because of this incident, the people of the Wang family no longer felt that the meat ball was a treasure, so they threw it to the back mountain.
Although the meat ball is thrown, this is not the end but only the beginning.
The child who went crazy and bit the Wang family often secretly ran to the back mountain alone in the following days, and when he came back, there was blood on the corners of his mouth. The family asked the child where he had gone and what he had done, but the child shook his head and refused to say, if he was forced to ask urgently, he would attack people, and he was still infinitely powerful.
The people of the Wang family thought that the meat ball must be playing tricks, so they went to the back mountain to dig out the discarded meat ball, but they couldn't find it.
They thought that the child must have taken the ball away, so they decided to follow the child. Two days later, the children of the family secretly ran out again, and the others of the Wang family actually followed secretly. It was just as they thought, the kid had really hidden the ball somewhere else, and after he dug it out, he frantically sweetened the blood that was secreting it.
The adults who were following him rushed out and forcibly separated the child from the meat ball, and this time instead of throwing the meat ball, they burst it on the spot. The exploding ball of flesh splattered a large amount of blood like a blood ball, and these blood splatters everywhere, and the scene was extremely terrifying.
The child, who was still going crazy to snatch the meat ball back, suddenly fell silent, and then the seven orifices bled and died on the spot.
The cause of the child's death must have been attributed to the meat ball, but the old man in the village said that the Wang family had committed Tai Sui, which was a retribution. But no one expected that this so-called "retribution" did not end there, and a month after the death of the Wang family's child, another child in the village inexplicably appeared to bite and suck blood.
They went to the hospital to ask the doctor to find out the cause of the disease, but the hospital could not cure it at all, so the people in the village began to find Taoist priests from all over the country to eliminate demons and exorcise demons, and to cure the children in the village who were crazy and bitten people and sucked blood. However, things like rituals didn't solve any problems at all, and some Taoist priests were even bitten or even killed by children who had blood sucking disease.
As a result, the entire Fangjia Village became a well-known sick village in the vicinity, no one approached, and the people in the village left one after another.
In this context, Sun Jian came to Fangjia Village, and with his years of experience in studying hemoporphyria, he wanted to completely and fundamentally solve the dilemma faced by Fangjia Village.
At first, the villagers did not believe that Sun Jian had a way to cure the child's illness, but after a week, the attitude of the villagers began to change, because Sun Jian's treatment method really controlled the child's bloodthirsty symptoms and stabilized the child's mood, and it seemed that everything was going in the direction of haode.
But just when the villagers thought it was all over, there was an adult in the village for the first time, and the disease spread rapidly, and within a week six people became ill. And the identities of these six people are extremely special, they are the six people who participated in the explosion of flesh and blood balls back then!
"Retribution is coming, and no one can stop it!"
The old people in the village began to chant this sentence non-stop, and then burned incense and worshiped the Buddha every day, hoping that the Buddha and the Bodhisattva could solve the troubles in the village, and Sun Jian was no longer as valued by the villagers as he was in the first few days.
What followed was even more bizarre, and those adults who were sick not only had bloodthirsty, but even itched all over their bodies. And when their skin was scratched and scratched, tender green buds sprouted from the wounds! Attempts have been made to uproot the buds, but it doesn't take long for new sprouts to grow out of the new wounds.
This strange disease frightened everyone in the village, including Sun Jian himself, who felt that it was not a disease, but really a curse that befell the village.
Sun Jian thought about contacting the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, but he also knew that doing so could lead to the entire village being quarantined and the villagers losing their freedom. Zuihou he decided to rely on his liliang to find out the cause of the disease, and this trick for help can only be used as a last resort.
Since then, Sun Jian has continued to try every day to convince the patients who have sprouts on their bodies, hoping that the villagers will cooperate with him in researching their conditions to see if they can find a cure. With Sun Jian's unremitting efforts, Zuihou finally has someone willing to help.
Sun Jian took the bud from the man's body and studied it, but after only two days of research, he realized that something was wrong with him, he began to have a strong desire for blood, and at the same time, he felt unbearably itchy on his body, and he knew that he was also infected with this disease! However, it is not clear how the disease was transmitted to him.
Sun Jian finally realized that he couldn't go on like this, and that he had to stop the spread of the disease, and he decided to call the Centers for Disease Prevention and Ward to explain the strange situation in Fangjia Village.
But just as he picked up the phone and was about to dial, a villager suddenly broke into Sun Jian's house where he was doing research, and he couldn't say anything about it. Sun Jian was knocked down by the villagers who came in before he could figure out what was going on, and when he came back to his senses, he found that his body was no longer under his own control, and the most terrifying thing was that his body was still moving, and he could still speak normally, as if another soul had taken over his body and imitated him to live.
In this walking corpse-like state, Sun Jian settled in Fangjia Village and lived for six years, during which his wife and children found him, and the evil spirit that occupied his body also anesthetized Sun Jian's wife and children with anesthetics, cut the skin and took out a blood seed from the flesh, and then cut the skin of Sun Jian's wife and child, and planted the seeds directly in the blood vessels.
A few days later, Sun Jian's wife and children also became a member of the Blood Tree puppet in Fangjia Village.
In the days of becoming a Blood Tree puppet, Sun Jian gradually discovered that these Blood Tree puppets seemed to have a special contact with each other, they didn't need to talk to know what the other party was thinking, and they could communicate with each other with their minds. Slowly, he also tried to communicate with other puppets through his mind, and Zuihou actually succeeded.
In the past six years, he tried to communicate with all the villagers, and found that all the people in the entire Fangjia Village were no longer their former selves, they had all been replaced by the Blood Tree, and had become the Walking Dead and the Blood Tree puppets.
Sun Jian divided these Blood Tree puppets whose shells were occupied into two categories, one was imperfect puppets and the other was perfect puppets.
The so-called imperfect puppet is that after being planted with the seeds of the blood tree, the body will grow tree buds, and these tree buds will grow bigger and bigger, and eventually turn people into nutrients and absorb them; The perfect puppet is that the body does not give birth to tree buds, but allows the blood seeds to gradually develop and form in the body, and Zuihou becomes a new species that can maintain both human form and become a monster like a dryad.
According to Sun Jian's statistics, there are currently 37 perfect puppets in the village, including himself, and 126 imperfect puppets. These imperfect golems only live for a maximum of three years, after which they become incapacitated and eventually buried by the perfect golem in a tree in the back mountain that has been turned into a blood forest.
In the spring, these blood trees produce flesh-like fruits that emit an alluring scent of blood, and the perfect puppets feed on them.
But there is one thing that Sun Jian has not figured out, and that is that these perfect puppets will not leave this village, and there seems to be an invisible powerful liliang that binds them here. As a result, they can only spread rumors about the Blood Tree to attract outsiders into the village, and turn these people into new puppets to stay in the village to replenish their numbers.
Unfortunately, I, Qiao Wei, and Feng Xiaoxiao are the "stupid" who heard the rumors and came to Fangjia Village, like worms that pounced on a spider's web.
They used the usual way to lure us to buy something, then puncture the tires, and then lure us into the house to drink tea through Sun Jian's gestures, and put anesthetics in the tea to make us faint. But what these Blood Tree puppets didn't expect was that when they planted the Blood Tree Seeds in my body, my body actually had a severe rejection effect on the seeds, and the seeds bounced out of my wounds, and the original red blood seeds turned black, and quickly dried up as if they had been poisoned.
When I woke up again, I also began to attack the blood golem in a frenzied manner, and the force was so great that it was not until five more golems came that I was completely subdued.
