Chapter 44: Zombie Village

The elder brought He Er home, and everyone in the village knew that some people said that this old man was too soft-hearted, and He Er was a scourge, and he died early and was relieved of his worries, so why should he be charitable? But the elder was kind-hearted, and others didn't listen to anything, so they took He Er home.

said that a neighbor heard a strange sound coming from the elder's house that night, and the big guys knew that He Er was at his house, so they thought if He Er had done something bad again, and they all copied farm tools and sticks and went to the elder's house. As a result, they were all stunned when they entered the house, and there was a headless corpse lying in the room, and the blood slowly flowed out of the broken neck to form a blood pit on the ground.

At this moment there was a click of gnawing bones in the house, and the scalps of the listeners were numb, and the timid ones who entered the door were frightened away when they saw the headless corpse, and the few brave ones who carried sticks into the house were all scared away.

The smell of blood in the room was even stronger, a small oil lamp was still lit on the table, and I vaguely saw a person squatting on the back of the earthen kang, looking at the figure and physique should be He Er. Several people looked at each other, and the head was a bearded man with a full face, and the villagers called him Zhang Huzi, saying that this beard turned the stick in his hand sideways and poked He Er's back, but He Er didn't react, still squatting on the kang with his hands on his chest and pounding something.

Zhang Hu took advantage of the crowd, he lifted his trouser leg and lightly got on the kang, bypassed He Er's side face and looked at it, and suddenly screamed out in fright, He Erli actually held a bloody head and gnawed on the skin of the face there, blood dripped down his chin on the kang, staining the futon red. This bearded man sat on a soft thing with weak legs, and when he looked down, he saw that it was the elder's daughter, and the flesh on her face and neck had been gnawed away, and she was simply a bloody person.

This scared Zhang Hu a lot, and he was about to get off the kang even when he rolled and crawled, but He Er, who had not moved just now, turned his head to look at him at this time. He Er's face was strange, his eyes were like two black glass balls, which were still shining by the light of the small oil lamp, his mouth was still grinning, and his mouth was full of flesh and blood.

Zhang Huzi was already frightened, and he forgot to resist and was bitten by someone on the arm, but fortunately, the rest of the people who came reacted, beat He Er down with a stick, and covered his neck, hands and feet with a rope, and several people dragged him and beat him again, and the wooden sticks were broken several times, and He Er was finally beaten without moving.

Zhang Hu covered the arm that was bitten by He Er and said viciously: "This He Er, this guy has lost his heart and has started to eat people!" We have to hang him and let him pay for the old man's life. ”

The rest of the people on this call responded to the right words, saying that this He Er had gone crazy and couldn't stay any longer, and he had to be killed. Taking advantage of the darkness, several of them tied He Er with ropes, dragged them directly on the ground and pulled them under a big tree outside the village, wrapped the rope around He Er's neck, and threw the other end onto the tree pole, and several people hung He Er.

He Er didn't struggle when he was hanged, as if he was dead, but he just looked at the two eyes that were still shining, as if he was looking at the people around him. He Er was hanged for a quarter of an hour, and several people felt that he must be dead, so they planned to leave, even if he was found hanging here tomorrow, it didn't matter much, then He Er would definitely be beheaded if he killed two people.

After Zhang Hu was bitten by He Er, it was just a little painful just now, and now the wound began to itch, his arms were numb, his whole body was very cold, and his head was also groggy like severe typhoid fever.

The story of He Er's biting death spread in the village that night, and there were good-looking and lively people who surrounded the elder's house in a circle, but they didn't dare to go in to see it, so they could only watch the excitement outside. The two corpses in the house were only covered with the futon on the kang and did not move, for fear that they would not be clear when the official came tomorrow, so no one dared to move.

After Zhang Hu covered his arms and returned home, his daughter-in-law saw him coming back and hurriedly greeted him and asked the elderly what was going on at home. Zhang Huzi didn't dare to tell the truth, for fear of scaring his family, he said that He Er wanted the daughter of the elder family, and let them block a random fight and throw them into the wilderness, nothing else, his daughter-in-law still believed it, and didn't ask anything.

When Zhang Huzi went to sleep at night, he suddenly felt stiff all over his body, his lungs seemed to be filled with sand, and he couldn't breathe in at all.

It stands to reason that Zhang Huzi was indeed dead at that time, but after the second half of the night, Zhang Huzi, who had been out of breath for several hours, suddenly sat up, with a green face and fangs looking like a ghost, and when he saw his daughter-in-law who was still sleeping next to him, he opened his mouth and bit it.

Early in the morning of the second day, someone ran to the county yamen to say that He Er had killed someone, and the efficiency of the official mission at that time was extremely slow, you came to report to the official today, and they were enough to go tomorrow, and they delayed and waited until later, so they didn't come that day, and the corpses of the elder and his daughter were still in the house, but a strange thing happened in the afternoon of the same day.

After noon, there was a villager who went to the elder's house to hang He Er last night, and suddenly remembered that He Er was still hanging outside the village, so he beckoned a few people to plan to take He Er off and drag him back to the village to wait for the people from the government to come and collect the body.

But when I went to the place, I found that He Er had begun to stink, the corpse was black and blue, and his eyes had become plaster-like, and the corpse smell was very unpleasant, and the smoked person was very uncomfortable and just wanted to bend over and gause. Seeing this situation, the people present discussed putting He Er's body down and burying it well, so that everyone would not be infected with corpse poison. Everyone agreed, so they first removed He Er's body from the tree and put it aside to dig a pit to bury him, but everyone had work to do during the day, so they decided to bury He Er's body at night.

After dinner, when those people were about to dig a pit to bury He Er with torches and shovels, they found that his body was gone. There was only a pile of broken ropes left on the ground, as if they had been pulled by force, which frightened everyone, and they all said that this He Er's corpse had changed.

At the mention of the corpse, everyone was shocked and screamed, holding torches everywhere, for fear that He Er would come out of somewhere to pounce. A few people searched for a while in this wilderness, but they didn't find any trace of He Er, so they were a little worried that He Er ran back to the village, and they didn't dare to stay longer, so they wanted the village to let the big guys be careful.

When a few people returned to the entrance of the village with torches, they found that there was no light in the village, not even the usual noisy cries of chickens, ducks, geese, and dogs.

The men wondered why it was so quiet tonight and walked towards the village, and as soon as they reached the first house at the head of the village, they saw a woman walking across the street. The woman was dressed in red and white, and when she walked, her hands and feet were stiff and her posture was extremely strange, like a puppet for showmanship.

Because it was illuminated by a torch, it was not very clear to see, and it was not until the woman walked in that the few people saw that this was the elder girl who let He Er bite last night.

The elder's daughter seemed to see the firelight and slowly raised her head, and her face was gnawed away by He Er, revealing two rows of Bai Sensen's teeth.

Three days later, two officials from the county came to investigate the case, and found that there was no figure in the village, there were blood stains everywhere, and there were many stumps and broken arms, but there were no intact people.

The two officials were almost frightened by this scene, so they hurriedly ran back to the county seat and called a large number of officers and soldiers, surrounded the village, and went door to door to find people.

In the end, it was found that all the people were in an old ancestral hall, and there were seven or eight hundred people in each stack, and all of them were dead, and there was not a single living person in the whole village.

Hundreds of people in a village have all died, which is a big deal, and the county has sent additional manpower to investigate the matter. At the time of the investigation, at night, all the dead people who had already stinked came back to life like corpses, staggering and standing up to bite the living, and many officers and soldiers who were investigating the case in the old ancestral hall were surrounded by the villagers who had changed into corpses, and none of them were broken.

But those officers and soldiers are not vegetarians, as soon as they saw that there was a corpse, they surrounded the old ancestral hall, as long as the villagers with corpses came out of the main gate, they had to be cut to pieces with knives. It lasted until the morning when the rooster was chirping and dawn were all resolved, the corpses that were chopped by the official knife were everywhere, the entire old ancestral hall was dyed red, too much rancid blood accumulated and flowed to the low places, and the air was also filled with a strong smell of corpses.

Because he was afraid that the smell of corpses would spread the poison of corpses, he dug a big pit in the village, threw all the corpses into it, poured kerosene and fish oil, and set it on fire.

The fire in the pit was 20 meters high, and the stench of corpses could be smelled even if they covered their mouths and noses, and the officers and soldiers present all had severe vomiting and stomach pain, and before all the corpses were burned out, they began to fill in the pit and bury it.

All officers and soldiers involved in this matter were also ordered not to tell the matter and to keep it secret.

I don't know how many years later, one day at the hottest time, a puff of black smoke rose from the middle of this deserted village and soared into the sky, followed by darkness and black rain in the sky. The rain was black, sticky, and smelly, and people in the nearby villages were hiding in their homes and afraid to go out.

At that time, some elderly people said that this was because there were too many dead people buried on the leylines, and a large amount of corpse qi gathered by the dead people was pushed out of the surface of the earth by the earth qi released by the leylines and soared into the sky, and finally condensed into corpse oil and fell from the sky.

The fourth child heard that his whole body was full of fat refined by the fire of the dead, and the dead heart was there, Xiao Qi also subconsciously hid to the side after hearing it, and the fourth child quickly crawled over and picked up the clothes thrown aside and wiped the corpse oil on his body, and after rubbing it for a long time, it was finally less, but the stench was still very strong.

At the end of the grave slope, Hu Dafang covered the sun with a straw hat, and the high temperature could make him faint from heat stroke at any time, but he still had a rope tied around his waist, and he thought that Lao Wu Xiaoqi was still in the cave, so he never dared to leave to find a place to hide from the hot sun.

Just when Hu Dafang was about to be sunburned, suddenly the rope around his waist moved, and it seemed that someone was pulling the rope below. Seeing this, Hu Dabao hurriedly lay on the edge of the cave and looked inside, although it was a little dark, he could see a figure climbing up along the rope.
