Chapter 39: Life and Death
After a while, the members of the three security brigades each came with one person, and they all brought men, probably because they were worried that women were crying and troublesome, but two of the old men couldn't cry all the way, and one was a teenager, his eye bubbles were also red and swollen, and when he saw the corpse lying on the ground, he immediately rushed up desperately and cried loudly: "Daddy! Woo woo woo ~ ~~ "
Seeing this scene, the captain of Humpty Dumpty casually threw a sentence, "Children will make trouble!" Although he complained, no one stopped the young man, but asked the two old men in front of him, "When did the dead people of each of your families find out?" ”
The two old men finally couldn't help whimpering, but they were finally people who had experienced a lifetime, and the old man standing on the right choked up and said: "Captain, our daughter-in-law is a virtuous person, woo~~~ My son went out to pour out the mountain goods, leaving our family old and young, how to live, woo woo~~~"
Humpty Dumpty didn't care how sad the old man was, and said with a solemn face: "I asked you the time of death of the deceased, where did you go!" ”
The old man cried for a while, and hurriedly admitted: "It was the little grandson who found out, and when our old couple rushed to the house, it was already like this...... Woo woo woo ~~~ Captain, we don't know the time of death, our daughter-in-law is virtuous, just died, how should we live~~~ Woo woo~~~"
Humpty Dumpty immediately waved his hand impatiently and motioned for the team members to help the old man aside, then rubbed his nose and said, "Although I didn't ask the exact time of death, I can also preliminarily judge it tonight!" And not what three days ago! ”
This remark was obviously accusing the two post-mortem personnel, and the coroners immediately hurriedly waved their sleeves to wipe the sweat on their foreheads, and they both bowed their heads deeply and did not dare to speak again.
Humpty Dumpty then asked another old man, "When did your deceased die?" Do you know what causes death? ”
The old man sat down on the ground straight, and then moved to the thirty-year-old corpse, holding the corpse's skull and crying, crying and crying: "I have a son at the age of forty, just such a single seedling, oh my God! How do you let me live~~~Woo woo~~~"
"Hey!" Humpty Dumpty couldn't stand still, waved his hand and rubbed his nose, and scolded loudly: "We are solving the case now!" If you don't want your lone seedling to die in vain, answer the question honestly! You know?! ”
The old man cried and screamed for a long time regardless of it, and then slowly stopped crying, and said in an old and hoarse voice: "I know...... I know...... My calves have just been down for three days, and we have to feed soft material twice at night, and we are too old to do heavy work, so I let my boy cook, and he slept in the cowshed, about three hours ago, the calf knocked on the kitchen door, and I heard the sound and got up to see, just like that, just watched my boy lie in the cowshed and couldn't move, woo~~~"
"Oh?" Humpty Dumpty seemed to have gotten something useful this time, tilted his head and thought about it, then waved his hand to signal the team members to help the old man aside, while he stared at the three corpses for a long time, and then rubbed his nose and said, "All died tonight?" Could it be that a lot of wild dogs have broken into our town? Since there are many wild beasts, then each family should pay more attention to the security of the portal in the future, and the families of the deceased should take the corpses back for burial, and we will send people to find the traces of wild dogs and beasts, go! ”
"Wait!"
Indeed, I can't figure out why these three people died for no reason, maybe there are really wild beasts in this town, but at the critical moment, the master suddenly stopped loudly, and strode forward, hugged his fists at the captain of the security brigade and said, "Captain, can you let me see the corpse?" ”
Humpty Dumpty tilted his head and glanced at the master at this time, but he didn't answer, but he didn't say anything to stop him, he shook his body and let go of an open space, and the master immediately bent down to check the corpse, and I also stood behind the master with my heart and watched.
I have to say that the death of these corpses is indeed a bit strange and terrifying, the neck part of each corpse seems to be bitten by something sharp, the flesh, green tendons, and blood vessels have turned into black blood foam sticking to it at this moment, looking at it is a little disgusting, and the flesh and blood are blurred, all around are black and purple, until the root of the corpse's ears, and the bottom extends to the shoulder socket, which is simply miserable.
Moreover, the faces of each corpse were very strange, the eyes were deeply sunken, like the skinny appearance of bones, the lips were collapsed all around, and there was a trace of black thread-like things, just as I was fascinated, the male corpse actually opened his eyes strangely wide, staring at me deadly!
My whole body trembled, and I involuntarily took a step back with my heart, and the Humpty Dumpty man and a circle of security guards on the side also suddenly exclaimed in panic, and took a big step back, and then I found out that it was the master who reached out and pressed a certain part of the corpse, I don't understand what acupuncture point the master pressed on the corpse to cause the corpse to open its eyes, but this is also too terrible, I sighed secretly, waved my hand to wipe the cold sweat off my forehead, and then asked in a low voice: "Master, what's wrong, what's wrong?" ”
The master closed the deceased's eyelids with his hand, then stood up and clapped his hands, saying, "It is true that they were bitten to death, but it was not a wild dog or beast that killed them, but ...... Corpse! ”
"Zombies?!"
Including me, a circle of people were stupid, these three corpses were actually killed by zombies! This time it was terrible, everyone panicked, especially the captain of Humpty Dumpty, twisted his fat braincase around, looked around vigilantly, and then scolded in a trembling voice: "What nonsense are you talking about? What kind of zombies? How can there be zombies here? It's simply impossible! ”
The master seemed to be surprised by the captain's words, but said patiently: "The bodies of the dead can become stiff in a few short hours, because a small part of the blood in their bodies has been sucked dry, and the rest of the blood is also coagulating, don't look at their stiff appearance now, if they wait until their flesh and bones become extremely stiff, then they will also become unconscious zombies, the so-called zombies are stiff corpses, as for why stiff corpses can become extremely vicious, Then it will be due to the corpse poison left by the zombies that bite them, they are poisoned, and then absorb the yin and yang qi between heaven and earth, and use resentment as a force, they will become a corpse as powerful as a cow, and then I am afraid that any one of them is not something that all of you can deal with combined, if the captain still doesn't believe it, you might as well wait for another three hours, you will believe my words. ”
"Huh? This ......" Humpty Dumpty's face suddenly turned eggplant-colored, and he immediately ran to the master, hurriedly rubbed his nose, and said, "It turns out that you are Mr. Big, then may I ask Mr. Big, can you prove now that they are about to turn into zombies?" ”
I didn't dare say a word, because the doubts in my heart were the same as Humpty Dumpty, and it was actually the first time I had seen a corpse turn into a zombie, and it was the first time I had encountered such an experience, and I was wondering how to identify these corpses as they were about to turn into zombies.
Master snorted coldly and said, "It's not simple, just look at their fingernails and toenails!" ”
At the same time, Humpty Dumpty and everyone else looked at the fingernails of each corpse, and sure enough, the nails of these corpses actually turned dark black, and strangely, at the edge of the nails, there was also a half-moon-shaped green spot, very similar to the corpse spots I had seen, I finally believed Master's words, because such green spots are not something that can be found in a body that has just died, unless the corpse was infected with some strange toxin before death, but it is obvious that the coroner has announced it just now, and they are not poisoned, so ...... Isn't that a corpse about to turn into a zombie?!
Humpty Dumpty's momentum suddenly vanished, and he asked the master with a begging face, "What Mr. Big said is really good, they are really about to become zombies, so what should we do?" Ask Mr. Big for directions! ”
The master glanced at everyone left and right, then shook his head and sighed, "These three corpses are easy to handle, just find some lychee branches and burn them, the trouble is those real zombies hiding in the dark, alas!" Let's dispose of these three bodies for now. ”
Humpty Dumpty hurriedly ordered his subordinates, "Did you hear that?" Immediately go to find the lychee branches, and then burn all three corpses! ”
The coroner, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly answered: "Captain, if there is a ...... Naturally, it is easy to do, but this lychee branch generally grows in the south, and we are located in the north. ”
"No?" Humpty Dumpty frowned, rubbed his nose and said, "That's right, Mr. Big, is there any other way to dispose of the corpse?" The point is that there are no lychee branches in the north! ”
As soon as the master was about to speak, an old voice suddenly came: "Captain, I know where there are lychee branches, and I saw a few wild ones when I entered the mountain some time ago. ”
I turned my head and found that the old man who spoke was actually the father of the thirty-year-old man among the three corpses.
The old man wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, staggered up and said: "Alas, everyone is dead, no matter how many tears are shed, it is useless, since Mr. Big said that he may become a zombie and harm people, then I, as a father, can't let my son do bad things, right, burn it...... Burn it......"
Master's face trembled, and he bowed to the old man with a deep fist, saying, "The old man is really righteous and awe-inspiring! ”
The old man waved his hand weakly and said, "Alas, don't say anything, now send someone to Xiaocangou to find lychee branches, I'm old and useless, go home first and wait for the letter, remember to notify me when it's burned, I'll pick up the ashes......"
In the end, I clearly saw two lines of tears flowing from the corners of the old man's eyes, and his voice was low and inaudible, it can also be said that he was unable to continue, just like that, the old man turned around and walked away, step by step, walking so staggering, so lonely, as if there was a slightly stronger wind in the air that could blow it down, I couldn't help but want to step forward and help the old man for a while, but I held back, because I knew what would happen next......
"Son! Woo~~~Woooo~~~"
Sure enough, around the corner in the distance, the old man finally couldn't bear it, and cried loudly on the corner of the wall, I gritted my teeth, and still didn't hold back the tears from the corners of my eyes that slid down my cheeks, I didn't know how to persuade the old man, so I didn't dare to step forward, so I could only keep chanting in my heart: It's too bitter, it's really too bitter......
Humpty Dumpty immediately went to the small tank ditch to look for lychee branches, and I stayed where I was, quietly looking at these three corpses, people's lives are sometimes really fragile, just as they are in the prime of life and let go, all the youth, all the relatives and affection, all of them will come to an end at the moment of their death, people's lives are sometimes really strong, just like their relatives, how much sorrow and pain the living have to end, but they still have to live well, for the sake of the people who remain in the world, You have to live well, at least the old man is strong.
When strength and fragility coexist, all that is left is endless sighs, what else can be done besides sighs? And what?
