XXXVI Campfire Seeds
As soon as I saw his gesture, I was furious, "You said they were in the coffin?" Brother Qiang nodded with a sly smile, then pointed to the clump on the ground, and whispered, "Look what that is, they are really wasteful, just throw away the leftovers, if you are hungry, you can nibble on two bites."

I looked down and almost threw up because there was a charred human foot next to my feet. There were also rows of gnawed tooth marks left on the human feet. Thinking of the delicious bar that the person ate before, my stomach turned over and I almost vomited nauseously. The body in the coffin where we were hiding was missing a leg, and it seemed that they had taken it to eat.
This is not like eating the dead, people will eat the dead when they are extremely hungry, this kind of thing has also appeared many times in ancient times, but eating zongzi makes people shudder, and they have killed a person before, that person's hands and feet are gone, I am afraid it also entered the stomachs of these people.
Brother Qiang picked up the foot of the corpse with great interest, and opened his mouth in front of me, gesturing to take a bite, I really wanted to kick him to death, and make such a disgusting act. Brother Qiang covered his mouth and smiled and bent down, pointing at me with one hand as if to say look at your cowardice.
I urged him to hurry away, kicked aside the leftovers, and dragged his bag backwards.
Brother Qiang and I dragged a few people's bags back, and it was quite heavy. I whispered to Brother Qiang, "This bag can't contain their dry food, if a bunch of people come out, it will be enough for us to refresh." ”
"Where do you have so many associations?" Brother Qiang glared at me, obviously he was also worried about this, "There are so many rice dumplings in this bucket, why do you have to run around the world on your back." ”
I think about it, too, maybe I was scared stupid, and my brain is obviously not enough. Whirring back with a few bags, I opened it and saw that we were all dumbfounded.
Half of the bag was full of golden bumps, and the other half were bottles and jugs, but there was not a grain of food, and it seemed that the gang had eaten corpses all the way over. The person who died before should have known about their secrets, and planned to get rid of them, but he didn't expect to be eaten in the end.
The old man pointed to the hidden stone door, and we returned a few bags to the same place and retreated to the door, and the old man whispered, "We also need to hurry up and rest, these people have either been here before, or have some hints from others." You can't go wrong with them. However, there must be people guarding this stone gate all the time, and we will follow them as soon as they make any noise. ”
This night, Cong Shuya and the two women slept well, and the three of us took turns on duty, but they were not in good spirits, I felt that my eyes were dry, and I guess I looked in the mirror and were all bloodshot.
I had just fallen asleep when Brother Qiang rudely woke me up and pointed to the stone door. I saw the stone gate light up again, and it seemed that the people had slept enough and were ready to eat.
I packed up my sleeping bag and other belongings, ran to the side of the door and listened to the movement inside, only one person was chirping, and I felt sick to my stomach at the thought of the food they were eating.
"Get on the lights. The boss's voice whispered, and Brother Qiang curiously looked inside with the mirror, turned around and said, "They don't use flashlights but torches." ”
The old man frowned, "We can't turn on the lights, we must be careful." Don't let them find out, and we need their fire to show us the way, and we can't get too far away. ”
Brother Qiang looked inside and turned around and said, "Old man, you can fight backwards, and you are far away from tracking and stalking." We don't have to follow so closely, as long as they walk in front of me I can find their place, and don't forget, this bucket is not very crowded, and a footprint can follow. ”
I nodded, Brother Qiang is good at this, as long as he knows, he will definitely be able to do his best, and this thing is also his strength, I guess I didn't have much training when I was a soldier before.
Brother Qiang said again, "You walk behind me, hanging far away." I'll leave a mark in front of me, so you can follow it. ”
Immediately, Brother Qiang and the old man set several symbols to express the meaning, looked back at Emperor Wu, and rolled into the stone gate with a mountain.
We have been waiting outside the stone gate for more than two hours, and I have yawned countless times, and finally a signal from Brother Qiang came from inside.
I also put my head into the stone door, only to see a secret door opened on the stone wall on one side at some point, Brother Qiang was shining in my direction with a flashlight, and when I saw my head, the flashlight was turned off and people followed.
I wanted to keep up, but the old man grabbed me, "Let's wait for another five minutes, he will leave a mark in front of him, and five minutes is enough for us to distance ourselves, so that we don't turn on the flashlight and be discovered by them." ”
A few minutes later, we walked into the stone gate, but the old man insisted on going to see the bonfire, and I didn't understand what he meant, so I followed. The old man looked at it for a long time, and then took out a round thing that burned black from the bonfire, "Sure enough, that's the case." They have this stuff too. ”
I had seen this seed once before in Zhu Di's tomb, it was found in the bonfire that Xiao San had lit before he was killed, and it was fresh at the time, as if it had not been long after it was photographed, and this one was indeed dried. At that time, Cong Shuya said that this thing could speed up the change of the curse, but after such a long time, I could see at a glance that this was definitely the same species as what I saw that day.
"What the hell is this thing?" I asked the old man, after all, Cong Shuya's understanding was much worse than that of the old man, and she didn't know a lot of things.
The old man pinched the thing and said, "It's a hallucinogen, I can't tell what it's called." Throwing these seeds into the fire will relax the nerves, and if the amount is large, it will cause hallucinations. There is also the rate at which some of the mutations of the curse can be accelerated on people. That's all I know. The old man looked at me and suddenly asked me how I knew about this thing, so I told him what happened in Zhu Di's tomb.
After hearing this, the old man suddenly turned his head to look at Emperor Wu, "Don't you know this thing?" Emperor Wu nodded, and shook his head again, "I've seen it once, but I don't know what it's for, and this thing appeared in the hands of a doctor." Speaking of this, Emperor Wu paused, "That's all I can tell you, and there are many things that can't be said yet." And you know that there is no benefit at all. ”
I agree with Emperor Wu's words, after all, his relationship with Brother Qiang is established, and there is no need to deceive us at this time.
The old man put the burnt seed in his pocket, "Although Xiao San was killed by Xiao Jiu, it may not be what Emperor Wu said." Xiao San didn't have a chance to touch this thing, let alone get it. That day, Xiao Jiu must have found out that Xiao San had any misdeeds, so he killed him. The old man turned his head and asked Emperor Wu, "Did Xiao Jiu do anything unusual when he saw you?"
