Chapter 184: Doubtful Village
Yan Yunting found the wooden kite he had hidden before and flew to Luoyang City.
Yuwen Changqing had predicted that in three months, the plague would rage in the land of Kyushu, and now four months have passed......
Yan Yunting hoped that this prediction would not come true, but Yuwen Changqing's words would not be too wrong.
Out of Yunmeng Mountain, Yan Yunting pressed the wooden kite very low, went around the entire plain, and inspected and observed various villages and towns, but found that these villages and towns were all empty, but there was no trace of the poisonous person.
The people are taking the initiative. Migrated? Or were you forced to flee?
Just when he was wondering, suddenly, there was a cry for help from a small village not far away:
"Help, help...... Who's going to save me? β
Yan Yunting hurriedly sped up his speed and flew over.
At the head of the village, three poisonous men are chasing a young woman, who is dodging around the house, shouting for help.
Is it finally there?
Yan Yunting didn't hesitate much, pulled out the fire gun and fired three shots in a row, and all of them exploded the poisonous man's head without accident.
The young woman fell to the ground, looking terrified.
Yan Yunting landed beside the woman, stepped forward and asked with concern, "Girl, are you okay?" β
The young woman subconsciously took a few steps back, looked at Yan Yunting timidly, and did not speak.
"You don't have to be afraid, I'm healthy and not infected with the plague." Yan Yunting showed a gentle smile and stretched out his hand to the young woman, signaling to pull her up.
The woman was still a little jealous, so she got up by herself, patted the dust on her body, and said softly: "Thank you." β
"Girl, can you tell me when the plague began?" Yan Yunting asked.
The young woman said, "Half a month ago. β
"What about the rest of the village? You're the only one in this villageβ"
"Have you anything to eat?" The woman asked suddenly. Looking at her yellow and thin face, she shouldn't have eaten a full meal for a long time.
Yan Yunting just had a few pieces of jerky on his body, and he took them out and handed them to the woman. The woman grabbed the jerky and devoured it, and then she said as she ate:
"Most of the people in the village died, and then they came back to life, and they became monsters that bite people on sight, and the few who survived hid...... I was so hungry that I wanted to come out and find something to eat, but I met those monsters......"
"Your village shouldn't be too far from Luoyang City, why didn't you go to Luoyang City to seek refuge?" Yan Yunting handed over the water bag again.
The woman poured a few mouthfuls and dredged the food, before sighing: "Don't you know, those monsters who came back from the dead all went to Luoyang City, I guess there is already a sea of corpses, right?" β
Luoyang City has a population of hundreds of thousands, so it will naturally become the target of the corpse tide attack, but with the Sealed Boundary and Yuwen Changqing who have been prevented in advance, Yan Yunting is not too worried.
"Okay, you just hide in the village, it's safer, this place is not far from Yunmeng Mountain, if there are not many poisonous people, you move to the deep mountains, I just came from there, and I haven't found any trace of poisonous people for the time being." Yan Yunting finished explaining, and stared at the water bag in the young woman's hand again.
But the woman didn't mean to give the water bag back, but asked, "Don't you want to go and see the others?" β
Yan Yunting patted the little tiger curled up on his chest, and said bitterly: "But I don't have anything else to give you except this little guy." β
The young woman said weakly, "Tiger? It's not that you can't eat ......."
"Woohoo! Whoa! The little tiger shook his wit.
"That'...... Let's go and see, girl, please lead the way? Yan Yunting said with a smile.
"Please come with me." The young woman threw the water bag back to Yan Yunting, turned around and led him deeper into the village.
This woman is a little eccentric.
The woman took Yan Yunting to a fairly solid "Wangjia Village Ancestral Hall" at the end of the village, she knocked on the door and said in a low voice: "Third uncle, it's me, he's here." β
......The door of the ancestral hall opened, and a middle-aged man with a sallow face and messy stubble showed half of his head, he cautiously looked around, and only after confirming that it was safe, did he open half of the door: "Come in." β
A young woman walks into the ancestral hall.
Yan Yunting followed casually, but he didn't know that he had just stepped through the door, "Bang dang!" An iron cage fell from the sky, and before he could react, he was framed inside.
Yan Yunting narrowed his eyes and glanced at the young woman: "What are you doing here?" β
The young woman was also a little embarrassed, she didn't dare to look at Yan Yunting, but said softly: "Foreigner, I'm sorry, we can't be robbers......
In the last days, the living are kings, and in order to survive, how many people will do whatever it takes?
There are also seven or eight villagers in the ancestral hall, men and women, old and young, women and children. They stared greedily at Yan Yunting, and there was a noise:
"Let him hand over the food!"
"Village Chief, the bird he rode just now is quite fresh, I'll drag it back!"
"Idiot, how can you drag something so heavy? You have to learn to drive it! β
"Tell me, stranger, where the switch is! If you do, we'll spare your life!" β
β¦β¦
It turns out that these people have been fighting wooden kites from the beginning, so the woman was deliberately chased by poisonous people, also to lure Yan Yunting into the trap?
Yan Yunting hates being deceived the most, especially being deceived by women.
"You think you can trap me with just such a broken cage?" Yan Yunting gently held the cage, he only needed to use a slight force to break it-
"Quack ......"
Suddenly, there was a crow cry from outside the sky.
"Yes...... It's the flock of strange birds coming, quick! Hide! β
The villagers ran to the ancestral hall.
The young woman hesitated, but still grabbed the iron cage, and shouted at Yan Yunting while breaking it up: "Quick, you don't want to live anymore, if you are bitten by that group of strange birds, you will become poisonous!" β
Yan Yunting squinted his eyes: "Aren't you looking forward to my death?" β
"If it weren't for the two pieces of jerky you gave me, I wouldn't have bothered to care about you! Hurry up! β
At this moment, all the other villagers ran into the ancestral hall and closed the doors and windows without hesitation.
"Third uncle! Third uncle, we haven't come in yet! The woman shouted at the ancestral hall.
"Xiao Li, it's too late, who told you to save that stranger?" There was a ruthless reply from the ancestral hall.
"Third Uncleβ"
"Look...... The world is hot and cold, and the people are warm and cold. β
Yan Yunting gently broke his hands, twisted the iron cage into a twist, pulled the woman and ran outside the ancestral hall, and casually found an empty house to get into.
"How are youβ"
"Shh......h Be quiet, they're coming. Yan Yunting pressed the woman's lips.
Black crows covered the sky, numbering in the thousands, and they had already smelled the breath of the living in the ancestral hall......
