Chapter 90: Worms

Xiang Yiyi saw that I was injured, picked up the dumbbell and threw it at the medicine man, she and this medicine man named Xiaoqi should know each other, now there is no way to make a move, Xiaoqi obviously can't recognize her, and wants to put us to death, to be soft on her, is to be cruel to us.

Although Xiao Qi has a pair of copper skin and iron bones, her speed is about the same as that of ordinary people, so it is not difficult to hit her, Xiang Yiyi's dumbbell hit her face, but unfortunately it was like a ball hitting the wall and was immediately bounced back.

"Yiyi tie her up, daughter, quick, tie her up!" The mother brandished a kitchen knife and ran to Xiaoqi, Xiang Yiyi listened to her mother's command, quickly took back the dumbbell and made a rope sleeve, raised her arm and threw out the upper body of Xiaoqi in the set, Xiaoqi stretched out her arm to get rid of the rope, she and Xiang Yiyi competed for a few seconds, and finally the strong mountaineering rope was broken by her, Xiang Yiyi did not retract her strength in time, and was shaken.

Seeing my mother rushing to Xiaoqi, I remembered my new skills and used two red nets one after another, one to cover Xiaoqi's upper body and the other to cover her lower body.

The red net is different from the rope, Xiao Qi couldn't break free with a few seconds of effort, I put a few more layers on her, and then boiled the net on her chest, revealing the green bugs wrapped inside.

But Xiaoqi was rolling around on the ground, and we had no choice but to step on her head, Dad and Xiang Yiyi hugged her feet, and Mom quickly stabbed the bugs with a kitchen knife.

My mother used her usual speed to chop the dumpling filling, and the knife was fast and clean, and with a dozen clicks, the dark green earthworm was stabbed into meat filling.

Xiao Qi screamed, and with a force of her legs, she kicked her father and Xiang Yi out, and her mother was a person who knew the times, and when she saw that the situation was not good, she quickly evacuated the scene.

In fact, if it weren't for the fear of these disgusting bugs, I would have used the ability to retrieve objects from the air to take them out, but they were so disgusting that I didn't know if they would parasitize on me, so I didn't dare touch them.

Now that my father and Xiang Yiyi have been kicked away, and my mother can't get close to her, even if I am reluctant, I have to give it a try.

As soon as I tried to do it, I saw a finger-thick green worm emerge from the green meat filling, which was four times thicker than the earthworms outside, with a ring of black patterns all over the ink paper, and two antennae on its head, and its body fell out and fell to the ground, and in an instant it withered into a worm trunk.

At this time, Xiaoqi also stopped moving completely, as if she and this big insect were one, one was prosperous and the other was lost.

"Daughter, you're still a good net, show your mother, where did you squirt from?" My mother walked towards me with a kitchen knife, and I hurriedly retreated and ran to the side to check on my father and Xiang Yiyi's situation.

Xiang Yiyi was nothing, she got up and patted the soil off her pants, patted the other parts of her body, muttered 'It's really strong', and asked my mother again, "Uncle Sang, how are you?" Hurt? ”

Dad rubbed his arm and stood up, moved a few times, shook his head and said, "It's okay, the bone is not broken, it's just a contusion." ”

Then he turned to my mother, "How are you?" Did it hurt? ”

The old mother had already walked up to him, waved the kitchen knife twice, and said, "Zero damage, you hide behind me for a while, I cover you." ”

I turned to my parents and said, "You better go back to the exit and wait for us, there are several medicine people here, if they rush out together, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of them." ”

Mom didn't wait for Dad to speak, and then preemptively said: "You just told us to guard the exit, it turns out that it was the right decision for me and your dad to come over, you are responsible for spraying the net, and the work of chopping meat will be handed over to Mom!" ”

Dad always respects Mom's decision, standing beside her with a smile and supporting her with actions, Xiang Yiyi saw this interaction between the two of them, and her face showed a lonely look.

Some words are difficult to say, but someone always has to say, I looked at the corpses around me and said to Xiang Yiyi: "Let's not worry, you take a closer look." ”

Xiang Yiyi inspected every corpse on the plain, and there were those she knew and those she didn't, but there were no of her parents.

According to my memories of the last time I came, I took them to the medicine shed and processing factory to have a look, and there were also many corpses inside, Xiang Yiyi did not look for her parents, and I did not see the foremen and stewards among these corpses.

My father walked a few places, suddenly looked shocked, and said to me: "Xiaorou, this place uses a gossip array, look at the house here, and the two rooms over there, eight directions, three layers inside and outside, a combination of one, two, and three, just like the gossip map in our book!" ”

Dad didn't say that I hadn't paid attention to it, the last time I came, I only thought that the order in which these houses were built had deep meaning, but I didn't think about it at all, and now he said this, it is indeed exactly the same.

We have a book about health at home, which was given by an old lady when my mother was exercising in the morning, and on the cover is a gossip map, the book was turned over twice by the three of us, and the freshness was thrown into the corner of the bookcase.

"Well, it's the same, but none of us understand this, and it's useless to know it, you say that this Qingyan real person can do witchcraft and set up formations, how can he die so easily? It's so weird......"

We really don't understand the deep-seated things, but the eight directions of the gossip should represent the eight gates, I still know, the medicine shed, the processing plant, and the medicine room, are three of the doors, so there are five doors that we haven't discovered?

No, I added in my heart, it should be that the four gates were not discovered, because the path we entered and exited should represent the Shengmen, and it was also one of the eight gates.

The more I learned about this place, the more I felt that it was dangerous, so I finally persuaded my parents to go back to the exit and wait, and Xiang Yiyi and I continued to look for someone.

I know that the direction is not the point, the focus should be time, every time it arrives, there will be a corresponding door opened, Xiang Yiyi and I pinched the watch, trying in different directions.

The first thing we found was the storage room, which contained wooden shelves more than two meters high, a total of twelve, each shelf was filled with medicine chests, and each medicine box contained black or red pills.

We didn't dare to touch these unknown things, so we left them in the storeroom, and then we found the dormitory of Qingyan Zhenren, as well as the dormitory of the steward and the foreman, they lived in a large space, the space was divided into several single rooms, Qingyan Zhenren's room was the largest, and the others lived in small single rooms five or six meters square.

We found a large wooden box in the dormitory of Qingyan Zhenren, which contained all kinds of strange events, and I picked out a string of copper bells from it and shook it a few times, and found that the sound was the same bell I heard the night I first arrived.

There are still animal bones and pots and jars, presumably all of which are the magic weapons of the true people, and we don't use evil arts, so it's useless to ask for these things, and we only take the string of bells with us when we go out.

"There are no corpses here, let's try somewhere else." I saw that Xiang Yiyi was depressed, so I encouraged.

"They may have ......" Xiang Yiyi's eyes were tearful, and she said 'maybe', but her tone was very sure, I intuitively felt that she knew something, but she didn't want to say it.

No one is born strong, Xiang Yiyi's escape at the moment is human nature, we only have the last space left without viewing, she seems to have an inexplicable fear of this space.

"You knew this before?" Outside the 'door' in the last direction, I asked Xiang Yiyi.

"I know there's a place where Qingyan Zhenren keeps zombies in prison." Xiang Yiyi said: "But I don't know where, when we first came, the activity area was limited to medicine sheds and processing factories, at that time, people who went out to collect food were injured and came back, they would be sent for treatment, some people never showed up again, and no bodies were transported out, so ......."

Xiang Yiyi didn't continue, but I already understood what she meant, those who were infected and mutated were locked up in a certain space, neither healed nor dead, what else could they be like besides becoming zombies.

Although Xiang Yiyi has never entered that cell, we have searched all the other areas of the Pure Land, and now there is only one space left that we have not seen, and the answer is almost certain.

Seeing your loved ones turn into ugly zombies is definitely a test of human consciousness, I asked Xiang Yiyi to wait outside the door, but she insisted on going in with me.

We entered the final area, which was an open circular space, with iron cages suspended in the air by chains, the cages were empty, and the ground was littered with blood and corpses.

There was no sign of destruction in the cage, and the zombies that were originally locked in it should have been released, but now they were all broken pieces.

Xiang Yiyi threw himself in front of a corpse by the wall, the corpse had lost its lower body, its internal organs were flowing to the ground, it looked like it had been corpsed for a long time, and its skin was full of rotting mold.

Next to this corpse, there was also a corpse with only half a head left, and unexpectedly, the two corpses were holding hands, ten fingers were clasped tightly, and the places where the hands were connected were rotten, indicating that they were not held after death.

Xiang Yiyi shouted 'Dad, Mom', tears fell on the corpse's tattered clothes one by one like beads of broken threads, I didn't want to disturb her, turned to look elsewhere.

Among the corpses on the ground, I found the foreman, and the corpse of the steward, who still held a bunch of keys in his hand, and I tried to recreate the scene in my mind as much as possible.

After Qingyan Zhenren left, the out-of-control medicine man escaped, and the steward and foreman wanted to deal with the zombies in the cell before evacuating, but the medicine man broke in and killed the zombies and them all here.

Ordinary zombies have no emotion and consciousness, but Xiang Yiyi's parents' hands are clearly held together after the mutation, I looked around the space, there are many shelves standing on the wall, and in front of one shelf is a bed that resembles an autopsy table, with belts for fixing the head and limbs.

Seeing this, I can't help but guess that Qingyan Zhenren may be experimenting with zombies, and he has a set of controls for people and corpses, which is very likely.

Even he may have made initial progress, as evidenced by the clasped hands of Xiang Yiyi's parents, thinking of this, I couldn't help but jump in my heart, and hurriedly turned my head and shouted at Xiang Yiyi:

"Hurry up, they're still here!"

We searched all the areas, but we didn't see the rest of the medicine men, and the massacre in this cell had just taken place, so-

Before I could think about it, Xiang Yiyi let out an exclamation, she heard my reminder and stood up from the ground, but before she could make the next move, a hand reached out from the wall and grabbed her arm, dragging her into the wall.

Xiang Yiyi instinctively supported the wall with her hands, but her strength was obviously not as great as the one inside, so I hurriedly grabbed the one inside the wall with the ability to retrieve objects in the air.

I was worried that this medicine man would be able to penetrate the wall, and the moment she came out, he threw out two red nets to wrap her, and the medicine man was about to fight back, but he was wrapped tightly by the red net, and his body lost his balance and fell to the ground, but fortunately he ran away.

Xiang Yiyi pointed to the wall just now and said, "There's a door here!" ”

I heard that there was a door, but I was relieved, just now I thought that the medicine man would pass through the wall, but now Xiang Yiyi said that it is a door, I feel a lot less pressure, if the opponent will pass through the wall and escape, then my red net will trap them at all.

I came to the door that Xiang Yiyi said, it was dark and I couldn't see anything, I broke a few glow sticks and threw them in, this thing is light and easy to carry, I don't need lighting, but Xiang Yiyi needs, in case the medicine man jumps out of it, there is light to facilitate her to avoid.
