Chapter 24: Ghoul

CHAPTER XXIV

In the middle of the night, she was awakened by a strange sound, a strange "click" sound came along the wind, and when the poor worm turned over and sat up, she found that the turtle sleeping next to her was gone, and she immediately panicked, as if in this wilderness, only staying by the side of this turtle is the only safe place.

But soon she saw Char.

Char squatted by the river, facing the opposite bank, and heard the sound of the poor worm sitting up, Char turned his head and made a "don't shout" gesture to the poor worm, and then lowered his voice and smiled: "There is something fun, you come and see." ”

The poor worm crawled to Char's side, sat on the ground, leaned on Char's body, and followed Char's direction to the other side of the river.

On the other side, the slaughtered Dijīng tribe could only faintly see the outline of a broken earthen wall in the night.

Starlight, on this side of the river, the dialect can be seen in the distance, can vaguely see around the tribe, one by one towering shadows, as if people are standing towards the tribe gathered, and in the earthen wall, there are already some black shadows gathered there, those guys don't know what it is, when they walk, they straighten up, but the movement is very slow, and from a distance, it seems that the upper body is long, and the lower body is short.

Some of them are already kneeling or lying on the ground, not knowing what they are grasping, burying themselves in the ......

"Bear?" the poor creature wondered.

"Ghouls. Char turned his head and grinned at the poor worm, he deliberately laughed very horribly, the poor worm really trembled, and almost exclaimed, Char covered her mouth and whispered: "Don't disturb others to enjoy dinner." ”

Ghoul ......

As soon as he heard the name, the poor creature knew what the thing on the other side was doing without asking!

The clattering and gnawing sound that came from the wind was even reminiscent of the sound of teeth scraping against bones, and the poor worm only felt a boredom in his chest, and he vomited for a while.

Char watched it with relish, and even sighed: "Alas, I've never seen a living ghoul, but today I've seen it for real." ”

In the distance, there were wolf howls from time to time in the wilderness, which were wolves or jackals roaming in the wilderness, these guys were obviously also coming for the corpses of those people in this tribe, but the powerful ghouls came first and occupied this place, and the wolves and jackals could only wander around helplessly, hoping that after these ghouls were full and left, they could leave a little leftovers for themselves.

The poor worm almost threw up dinner, but Char finally had enough, picked up a stone, and threw it at the other side. His arm strength was so strong that the stone was thrown far away from the tribe's earthen wall, and Char stood up, put his hands to his mouth, and yelled at the other side.

The poor worm was so frightened that she wanted to jump up and choke Char's neck!

"You madman, what are you doing, do you want to lure those monsters!!" the poor worm was so frightened that she lost her face.

"Hahahaha. Char patted the poor worm on the shoulder: "You are really an idiot, don't you know common sense? Ghouls are naturally the most afraid of water, we are on the other side of the river, they will never dare to come." ”

Sure enough, a group of ghouls were alarmed by Char's commotion, and they rushed out of the tribe with angry roars, ran to the river, and shouted at Char on the other bank.

Their legs are thin and short, their upper bodies are thick, their bodies are covered in yellow hair, their arms hang down above their knees, and they have a pointed triangular head, a bloody mouth, and a mouth full of rotten teeth.

Let's put it this way, if you break a bear and a wolf and put them together randomly, you might look like a ghoul.

Char was right, several ghouls had rushed to the river, trying to cross the river to catch Char, but as soon as their feet touched the water, they immediately made a panicked sound and hurriedly retreated. I could only vent my roar at Char across the river.

All of them woke up, and they were much better than the poor worms, they were obviously familiar with the ghouls' special xìng, and across the river, they looked at the other side of the river without fear and laughed.

The two sides shouted at each other across the river, and even some of them picked up stones and threw them at the opposite bank, although they didn't have the strength to throw the stones across the river a hundred paces wide, but this kind of unscrupulous behavior still made these timid people find it very interesting.

There was a commotion on both sides for half the night, and finally when it was almost dawn, the ghouls finally dispersed unwillingly.

"Alright, get ready to hit the road. Charya pulled the poor worm and thought for a moment, "But before we hit the road, there is one more important thing to do. ”

The important thing is......

Bathe!!

Belch...... Don't get me wrong, Char didn't take a bath by himself, let alone let the poor worm take a bath

The one who needs to take a bath is the ground jīng!

`

The jīng have a very fine tradition of hygiene, and their hygiene habits are considered to be the worst of all the intelligent and civilized races known!

Even in the language of the ground jīng, there is no word for "clean".

In the case of the jīng, usually, most of the jīng, from birth to death, may not take a bath once in their lifetime. They are forever covered in mud, dust, and even layers of suspiciously disgusting secretions. After a long time, it's like a layer of armor stuck to the skin.

In the ethnic group of the jīng, only some prominent jīng have the habit of bathing.

For example, a tribal leader, or a lord, and...... Princess.

Yes, when Char asked Mr. Princess Oches a question and asked him if he had the habit of bathing, Mr. Princess tilted her head and tried to think for a while before answering:

It remembered that the last time it bathed was during a giant wedding to the lord......

And the previous time, I can't remember.

In short, you can't measure this creature by human standards.

For Di Jīng, those who are willing to wipe their buttocks after every excretion are already one of the very few people who have a habit of cleanliness!

You can think about when you have a guy standing next to you who hasn't even taken a shower or even wiped his butt in years...... What will the other person smell like?

What's more, what if not one, but a group?

Yesterday I handed over the task of escorting the captives to Mr. Princess, which was really a last resort for Char - standing with a group of jīng for more than a meal, if you haven't been smoked to death, then you must have a serious respiratory problem.

But now that it's been decided to take all these jīng on the road, Char has to at least make some efforts to keep her nose safe.

The people all said they were lazy, and Char pointed his fingers for a while, and these guys shook their heads and refused to jump into the river. Char was simply not polite, went up and kicked a few people into the river one by one, and the rest saw that the old man was angry, so he simply plopped and jumped down.

Mr. Princess, who had been promoted to cell boss, laughed gloating at first, but then it realized that the Char had pointed his finger at himself and then at the river, and it realized that he had no exceptions.

There are many legends that use a figure of speech to depict the bloody scenes of the massacre: blood stains the river red......

And a group of jīng baths can also achieve this effect!

A group of people who had never bathed in their lives had been splashing in the river for half a morning, not because they didn't want to come up, but because Char was standing on the shore with an axe in his hand, and the first guy who tried to get ashore had been smashed back by him with an axe - of course, Char was using the back of an axe.

For half a morning, the jīng washed and almost took off several layers of skin......

And what is very terrifying is that for a long period of water near the river, the face of the river has become a kind of terrifying black sè......

"Luckily, we're going upstream...... Otherwise, I wouldn't dare drink the water from this river if I were killed. Char patted her chest in fear.

The poor creature has already gone into hiding...... Watching a group of stripped men take a shower is not something that a person of her stature can do.

Char walked over to the poor worm, who was changing the dressing for the wound on her leg.

"Hey. Char suddenly spoke, and he looked at the poor creature condescendingly: "I want to ask you something." ”

"What?" the poor creature subconsciously stopped what he was doing, and quickly lowered his trouser legs, covering his calves.

"Adeline, who is it?"

The poor worm's body trembled suddenly, and his eyes widened and stared at Char incredulously!

Char touched his chin and looked at the poor worm, "Hey, you know what? You have a habit of talking in your sleep, and I happened to hear you last night when I was woken up by that group of ghouls." ”
