Chapter 90: A Bad Omen
Pei Mengqing was wandering around Tianhe County at this time.
Now the county town of Tianhe seems to have become a melting pot, and every street and every household is burning firewood to keep warm.
The stalls and noodle stalls on the street are also burning firewood at this time, and watching the smoke billowing to boil the water in the pot.
"Tie up! Tie him up! ”
Suddenly there were frightened, anxious shouts, and slurred roars in the restaurant ahead.
Pei Mengqing hurriedly stepped forward.
Entering the restaurant, four or five men were trying to press a thin man to a chair.
The thin man didn't seem to have much strength, and he didn't think that he would have to rely on four or five strong men to hold it down.
At this time, the shopkeeper took a hemp rope and tied the thin man to the chair.
One of the men held his hand and said resentfully:
"This dog thing also bit me."
Pei Mengqing saw that there was a clear bite mark on the back of his hand, and there were blood stains on the bite mark.
Looking at the thin man who was tied up, he described it as withered, as if he had been hungry for a while, and the flesh on his face did not know whether it was rotten or chilblains, and it looked very disgusting.
His eyes were blank, and his mouth kept screaming, as if he had phlegm stuck inside.
Pei Mengqing frowned, quickly squeezed into the crowd, and pressed the middle finger of his right index finger together on the thin man's neck.
"He's dead."
"What!" There was an exclamation all around.
But the thin man was still screaming with his teeth and claws.
"Show me your hands, quick!"
Pei Mengqing grabbed the bitten man and was about to examine his wound.
But it was too late, and the other party's eyes turned red, and he suddenly roared and pounced on his companion.
Fortunately, Pei Mengqing kicked in time and kicked the other party to the ground.
The man struggled to get up, and his mouth was just as screaming, trying to grab the other man's feet.
When the other onlookers saw this, they quickly took a few steps back.
Pei Mengqing grabbed the mutant man's collar and tied him to a chair as well.
Compared to the thin man before.
In contrast, it was found that they were all blind, roaring incessantly, and struggling with their bodies, as if they were suffering from hysteria.
Pei Mengqing thought of something, and suddenly raised his palm: "Be quiet and don't make a sound." ”
Pei Mengqing's kick was strong and heavy, and he was the first to find out that the man was wrong, so the people around him subconsciously listened to his orders, not only stayed in place honestly, but also covered their breathing as much as possible.
In this situation, the two mutated men suddenly quieted down after baring their teeth and claws for a while, as if they had no purpose.
Pei Mengqing stomped lightly on the floor with his right foot.
Hearing the sound, the two men began to go crazy again, and wanted to pounce on the place where the sound had just come from.
"Ahh
"Oops!"
The surrounding crowd was shocked, it was obviously a neighbor living on the same street, why did it become like this now?
"Shopkeeper!" Pei Mengqing shouted.
The shopkeeper, who had a white towel on his shoulder, leaned behind Pei Mengqing in horror and seemed to be very scared.
"That, what does the hero command?"
"Are there any empty private rooms?"
"Yes! The Tingfeng Pavilion next to it is empty. Xiao Er nodded and replied quickly.
At this time, Pei Mengqing didn't care about complaining about the name of Tingfeng Pavilion, so he hurriedly asked the shopkeeper to disperse the guests upstairs, and he carried two men who seemed to have mutated into zombies to Tingfeng Pavilion.
He turned back and closed the door, and instructed:
"These two people are seriously ill and very contagious, although they have no eyesight, their hearing is very good, don't open this door, I will ask the teachers of Yanzhou University to come and see the situation."
"Yes." The shopkeeper nodded.
"Remember, don't open this door or go near those two until I come back."
Pei Mengqing's footsteps were fast, jumping directly from the second floor of the restaurant to the street, and running directly to Qingzhu District.
He was very fast, and he was back on campus in about five minutes.
He first found the trustworthy Li Yucai, explained the situation to him, and asked Li Liangcai's location by the way.
Then the two soldiers split into two routes, Li Yucai went to report to Elder Liu, and Pei Mengqing went to find Li Liangcai.
If this matter wasn't done by Li Liangcai, then he could have asked something.
After all, Li Liangcai was born in the Gate of Nothingness, and he must have some understanding of the methods of other evil organizations, so he may know what the situation is.
Pei Mengqing really didn't expect that in this era, he would encounter something similar to a zombie virus.
Could it be that there is still an umbrella company in this Tianhe County (the company that produced the zombie virus in Resident Evil, trying to create super soldiers from it)?
Li Liangcai was practicing talismans in the empty park at this time.
Since he decided not to return to the Gate of Nothingness to work for the evil organization for the time being, but to stay in this Yanzhou University, Li Liangcai also decided to develop his talisman and formation talents, and see if he could break through the middle and late stages of the Xuanqi level and even have a chance to reach the Qiqi level based on this and formulate principles.
Pei Mengqing quickly found him and told him what he had just done in the county tavern.
Li Liangcai frowned: "I haven't heard of this virus either, although the evil organization mainly controls people by distortion, evil and mutation, but I haven't heard of an evil cult that can control two puppets at the same time, if that's the case, this world would have been finished long ago." ”
Pei Mengqing also made sense when he heard it.
It seems that those evil organizations are refining puppets or individual zombies, and each of them is powerful.
But these zombies are closer to the virus infection in the film and television works of his time, which can mutate people and be extremely contagious, but most of the infected people become zombies that are not strong.
At least in this world full of warlocks, even zombies as powerful as lickers are vulnerable.
Quality, sometimes just beats quantity.
A spirit-level swordsman is enough to withstand thousands of zombies.
So instead of working hard to create so many zombies with average combat effectiveness, it is better to refine a spirit-level zombie puppet.
Unless, someone wants to take advantage of the highly contagious and spreading nature of the zombie virus to quickly infect all the states and counties in Liang County, with the purpose of destroying living beings?
Thinking of this possibility, Pei Mengqing shuddered and hurriedly pulled Li Liangcai to the restaurant.
At the same time, at the gate of Tianhe County.
The gates were open everywhere, and the guards hid in warm guard boxes, chatting with each other about their daily lives.
It was freezing and there was no one to check, so they had a good time.
One of them suddenly said, "Did you hear anything?" ”
The other also suddenly stood up and walked outside the sentry box: "It seems that the earth is shaking, the enemy is attacking?" Earth dragon turned over? ”
The former may be extremely small, although Liang County also has many horse thieves and bandits, but it is impossible to attack the county seat openly.
"What's that?!"
