Decades.

For ordinary people, this is a terrible number, almost representing the life span of a person's life.

The leader's plan failed, and the man who taught her the magic deceived her, no matter what, people cannot be resurrected after death, and even if they use great strength to save them, they will only survive and never return to normal life.

The corpses on the ground were blind to death, and they refused to accept such a result when they arrived.

Now that the cantharids have not dispersed and the enchantment is broken, if it is not handled properly, I am afraid that the people in this vicinity will be in a catastrophe, but if Mu Jinshu is asked to block the enchantment again, what should she do herself?

"Miss Mu, don't do this, maybe we can find another solution, didn't we say we would leave here together?" Tang Jiao looked at us and went to pull Jiang Xun, "Xun'er, you can say something, don't you usually have the most ideas?" Shopkeeper Shen, you have to think of a way. ”

The establishment of this layer of enchantment itself is an anomaly belonging to their Muzhang County clan, and it will be so easy for a few of us outsiders to interfere with where to go, and we are helpless just because of the reproduction of these cockroaches on the ground.

Jiang Xun didn't give him a response, and Mu Jinshu was the same, silent and didn't speak.

The air was filled with the smell of burnt rotten meat, Guo Zheng hurried over with people, and when he saw the corpses all over the ground, his face suddenly became extremely ugly, his hands held on to the wall beside him, his feet were unsteady, and his voice asked us in disbelief: "Is this ...... What's going on? ”

When the young men who followed saw the corpse, they were frightened by the smell and the appearance of death, and ran to the side and vomited.

I understood Guo Zheng's mood and waited on one side to give him a little time to digest.

"What happened here during the time we've been away?" Jiang asked him.

Guo Zheng's brows twisted into a pimple, and said: "A few days ago, many people had body pain and fainting at the same time, and now the hospital is full of people and are in centralized isolation, their condition has been worsening, last night began to have a high fever, and then the body temperature plummeted, and the doctor found a large amount of fluid in their brains, and the specific symptoms and causes have not yet been identified." ”

Is it the human toxicity that has been infected by the leaked cockroaches that has begun to kick in?

"Aunt Meng?" A voice came, staggering closer.

Wang Min stumbled forward and stood in front of Mu Jinshu, his body trembling like chaff, and his face was full of tears for a while.

Not only him, behind Guo Zheng, someone pushed a wheelchair, on which sat Sun Huaxing, who had already been poisoned when we left.

He couldn't stand up, a big bump had grown on the side of his neck, his head was twisted, and his whole body was twitching.

"Why are they here?" I asked Guo Zheng.

Guo Zheng glanced at Mu Jinshu, with compassion, sighed and said: "The two of them told us a lot about the famine that year, and when they heard that something happened here, they had to come with us, and we couldn't help it." ”

"Aunt Meng? Is that you? Wang Min raised his hand and didn't dare to touch Mu Jinshu, as if the person in front of him was just an illusory dream.

"Nope." Mu Jinji's guttural voice stopped, "She is my sister, my only relative." ”

"Wang Min." Mu Jinshu read out his name and said slowly: "I once heard your voice in the tomb wall. ”

Wang Min knelt down in front of her, covering his face with his hands.

"You said you would atone for your father's sins and stay for the rest of your life to protect our barrier, I thought it was just your hypocritical nonsense, but you didn't, you did what you promised."

I was shocked, Wang Min's father, is that the man who deceived Mu Jinshu's sister back then?

"I hated you, and I really didn't want to see you if I could." Mu Jinshu said: "But what did you do wrong? Those grievances and hatreds, in the final analysis, are only the affairs of our generation, and have nothing to do with your descendants, so you don't need to feel guilty about us. ”

Her gaze wandered and fell on Sun Huaxing in a wheelchair.

The old man was devoured by the toxin, and his crooked face was full of tears, and his mouth was opening and closing hard, but he couldn't make any sound.

I know, he wanted to say sorry.

Of those who lived through that incident, he is the only one who is still alive today.

"I don't want to, and I don't have the right to forgive anyone." Mu Jinshu endured his crying, maintained a stubborn posture, watched Sun Huaxing struggle to climb down from the wheelchair, fell to the ground in a kneeling position, and after a period of silence, said: "In this battle for our own survival, whether it was then or now, we are all at fault. ”

The swollen abdomen of the cockroach secreted more mucus, Mu Jinshu stepped back step by step, standing in front of the largest crack, looking at a few of us, and showing a smile in his teary eyes, "I am really happy to know you, and I am also glad that I have such a chance to turn back and make up for it before I make a bigger mistake." ”

Her gaze stayed on Tang Jiao, her smile deepened, and she said, "And you." I've lived for so many years, and I've never been so close to a man, and I'm afraid I won't have a chance in the future. ”

"Miss Mu." Tang Jiao wanted to step forward, but was stopped by Jiang Xun, stood face to face with her in a daze, raised his hand and scratched it in the air.

"Cockroaches, I can't crack them, but this will be the last victim, and from today onwards, they will no longer exist on your land." Mu Jinshu said: "Over the years, because of a kind of sacrifice, a symbiotic conclusion has been reached between the mature cockroach and the host, even if it is infected, you don't have to worry too much, the life span of the cockroach is very long, at least forty years, they will not have any effect on the host." When the poison attacks one day, as long as a piece of rune paper is attached to restrict the movement of the worm, and then the corpse is burned, the toxin will not spread. ”

"That's all I can do." She looked at the injured little mute and said to us: "If you leave Muzhang County, her life will start to grow again, and she still has a future, please help me take care of her, please." ”

After speaking, he bent down and bowed deeply to us.

"Don't worry." I couldn't bear to say, "We'll help her find a good home." ”

Mu Jinshu smiled, "Thank you." ”

She took out the wooden whistle once more, and blew it slowly, in a more distant tone than before.

On the ground, which had not been seen in the last second, many centipedes inexplicably poured out, where did they come from and where did they go back.

The cockroaches lying on the ground did not stop their reproduction movements, but we did not see a single larva in our field of vision, Jiang Xun asked Guo Zheng's people to find a barrel of gasoline at this time, and splashed it when the cockroach's eggs were exhausted, leaving only a pile of insect corpses, and used the tart demon whip to accumulate a cloud of yang energy, polished the lighter, and threw it into the place where the corpses were piled up.

The tongue of fire licked in the air, the flames burned, through the flames, I looked in the direction of Mu Jinshu, and saw her step by step into the enchantment, once again awakening the formation many years ago, dividing the two locations into two different worlds. Behind her, a smile appeared on her sister's remnant face, and the figure faded away, completely vanishing.

"Miss Mu......" Tang Jiao looked at the fire in front of him in a lost soul, and muttered in his mouth.

I picked up the coffin nail on the ground and threw the broken paper puppet into the fire.

Is it all over?

The paper puppets became dazzling as the flames burned, making a clicking sound and turning to ashes.

I don't know why, but when I looked at those empty eyes, I felt uneasy, as if they were still alive, and they were still staring at us until they disappeared and destroyed.

"It's the second time."

"What?"

"Puppet." Jiang Xun aroused doubts, but he didn't delve into it, and asked me in a blink of an eye: "The clue of the cockroach is broken, and there is no way to continue to investigate, what are you going to do next?" ”

I shook my head, my mind going blank.

Even if we know that someone has been to Muzhang County, we don't even have a clue about him.

A thin layer of fog rose around it, and until the flames had completely ended, we could not see anything unusual behind it.

The rift disappeared, and Mu Jinshu returned there, staying in that decaying land with those newborn cockroaches.

Guo Zheng secretly disposed of the corpses of the people of Muzhang County, they lied about the cause of the policeman's death, and gave him a commendation for dying in the line of duty, and the media only reported the local malaria outbreak, and did not know anything about other internal information, and concealed it all.

I went to inspect the river of the power station, and the boundary marker was still there, but the map below was gone, and the place no longer fogged up at night, and was no longer a passage connecting the two places. After that, I also searched for the turbulence of the aura on a large scale, but there was nothing, and overnight, Muzhang County completely disappeared from us, leaving no trace.

As for the little mute, I thought a lot, although she was still a child, but she had lived longer than we did, and I thought of some of her previous actions, and wondered whether her mind had been irreversibly affected by that environment. A few of us discussed it a few times, but there was no result, Ziwei asked me if I wanted to take her with me, I thought about it, after all, we were not walking on an ordinary road, and it was inconvenient to take her, but if she behaved abnormally, we must not leave her like this.

The local medical resources are limited, Guo Zheng arranged for a few of us to recuperate in a hospital in Linshi, except for Jiang Xun, who was too special, we all stayed there with peace of mind, and finally could relax and rest well.

Just when I was still thinking about how to settle the little mute, she finally woke up from a seriously injured lethargy, but the strange thing was that she didn't seem to know us at all, her memory seemed to be completely cleared, she didn't remember who she was, and she didn't have any memories of Muzhang County.

"Perhaps, it's not a bad thing for her, it's not for us." Ziwei said: "Abandon the past and start anew to build a new future." She was lucky. ”

Of course I understand, but I don't understand why this is happening.

No one gave me an answer, and the last thing I could put down was that this sudden amnesia reminded me of the experience I had in the hospital when I had a fever for no apparent time. I still can't be sure if the thing in my womb was real or if it was just a dream of mine.

I secretly went for a B-ultrasound without telling others, and when I got the results, everything was normal, no tumors, no cockroaches, and no children.

I breathed a sigh of relief, my hanging heart fell to the ground slightly, and after changing the medicine in the ward, someone knocked on the door, it was Tang Jia.

He took a box in his hand, put it on the table at the head of the bed, and said, "Shopkeeper Shen, this is what Jiang Xun entrusted me to bring to you." ”

"What about others?"

"I said it was too stuffy here, so I bought a ticket last night and went back to Chengshui City first."

I opened the box and saw that it was a tart whip folded upright, the venom and blood stains had all been cleaned up, and a note was pressed on it, which read: Keep your promise.

I smiled and heard Tang Jiao ask, "Shopkeeper Shen, in a few days, I will also leave." Do you want to come with me to Fengxian Pavilion, have you thought about it? ”
