Chapter Seventy-Six: Mutation
"Poof, poof. ”
Of course, this is not the crab demon laughing, anyone who sees the situation in front of it is afraid that they will not be able to laugh, the bottom of Qingzhou City is silently hidden so many rotten corpses, who can imagine this? Even the crab demon who came all the way from the water was unaware, not to mention the people and ...... of the city The fairy family guarded?
Its eyesight and ear power are not good compared to mortals, but its sense of smell is still very sensitive, far away outside Qingzhou City, it can smell the faint blood gas, and now it knows the origin of this blood gas, a considerable part of these corpses have considerable wounds on their bodies, and the dirty blood seeps out of the wounds with their actions, and along with the dark magic that controls them, it permeates the river water, and even escapes to the water, so that the crab demon floating on the surface of the water also smells.
"How could the river god allow it?" The crab demon knew that the rivers in this area were all bound by the immortal rules and regulations, and they could not flood out of the riverbed at will, and correspondingly, the immortal officials would throw all kinds of sacrifices into the river at four o'clock and eight festivals. There are many similar agreements, the crab demon has heard the secret news circulating along the river, although the news is vague and fleeting, it still confirms the gossip in the water tribe, and since then it has tried its best to stay away from the rich cities like Qingzhou City, and only operates in a few remote counties where the immortal officials do not come, if it were not for the coercion of Ujida this time, it will not enter Qingzhou City for another thousand years - it did not expect that this time the river god would be on the side of the enemies of the immortals.
"Whoa!" a corpse moved, its steps should have been stiff, but because of the buoyancy of the water, it seemed to stumble as if drunk, and the crab demon who did not dare to move watched in amazement as the corpse climbed up the riverbank on the other side, and it stepped step by step across the riverside street with the comical steps of a clown on the stage, and then, with a clumsy wave of its arms, the brass lock on the door fell— It was originally a gentleman who did not guard against villains, and Qingzhou City, which was guarded by the immortal family, had never been infested by big thieves, so no matter how rich the people were, they would not spend more money on the purchase of anti-theft measures - pushed open the door and stepped in.
"Poof. The crab demon knew very well that he should not spit bubbles, but it knew better what would happen to the family after the carrion entered the door, and beside it, a carrion stood up from the water with the sound of water, climbed onto the riverbank, and staggered into one house after another, watching this silent large-scale attack, the blood in the crab demon's body was almost frozen with fright.
"Wow~" The door of the house was pushed open again, and the first to come out was the man, who was wearing white underwear, smiling all over his face, carrying a tin wine jug in one hand, and a half-eaten fried fish in the other, which seemed to be ready to have another drink before going to bed, and then came out the hostess, whose hair bun had been removed, and a dark cloud was loosely tied on his head with a silver hairpin carved with a pine chrysanthemum pattern, and half of the rouge on his face, and his hands held a copper basin high, and his face was full of horror, as if he wanted to use this basin to repel the rotting corpses that came to him- This is naturally impossible. Behind the hostess, followed were their children, white and fat, wearing a belly pocket of a large red carp embroidered with gold, crawling barefoot, hand and foot on the ground, with his cradle on his back, and the rough stone slabs of the street soon wore down his tender palms and knees, leaving small bloody handprints along the way, which were soon covered by the blood that flowed from the bodies of more newborns.
The door next to him also opened, and a rickety old man carrying a burden stepped out, his gray hair and deep wrinkles between his eyebrows showed that his life was not easy, he should have just finished the sudden increase in business tonight before he was attacked, and before he could put down the load, he turned into a zombie in a blink of an eye, but the load did not fall, and carried out again. Not far away, a man carrying a gong came, and the crab demon didn't need to look at his complexion, just by looking at his gait, he knew that the dead army had added another member with a gong.
Soon the streets by the river were more lively than before, there were a lot of carts carrying the same loads, only the sound of shouting and selling was missing, and the residents along the street were also old and young, along with the cradles and hospital beds, all went to the street, and there were two people holding lanterns, flashing in the silent crowd, not only did not give the crab demon a sense of light and security, but reminded it of the legendary ghost market.
At first, the crowd wandered aimlessly through the streets, and the carrion corpses that came out of the water and dripped with blood calmly mixed in the crowd and pushed open the doors and windows along the streets, and then walked into the depths of the alleys, and when the new dead people poured out of the alleys, the dead people who were almost squeezed into the streets seemed to have suddenly received some order from the wind, and they carried carts and crawled together, and marched towards the center of the city, and among their legs were the guards dogs, the cats that caught rats, the horses and donkeys that staggered, and the crab demons even saw mice and starlings among them。 It seems that the leader of the army of the dead felt that his subordinates did not have to be limited to two-legged creatures, but that all those who gasped for breath had been taken in and conscripted. As for their destinations, it is impossible to guess, what else is there in the center of Qingzhou City? Of course, it is the Qiyun Peak, the symbol of the Qingzhou Immortal Family in the center of the Black Dragon Lake, the source of the eight waters!
The crab demon did not dare to take a breath, lest the leader of the dead army find it and recruit it, and if it had a choice, it would immediately hide in the mud at the bottom of the river until the day of calamity prophesied by Ujida had passed.
But it really doesn't have a choice.
The dead army at the bottom of the river was only a third of the way out.
The rest, not only did not climb the river bank, but at this moment they did not even march to Heilong Lake at the bottom of the river, although even the crab demon knew the entire Qingzhou City, no, the source of the entire Qingzhou water system is in Heilong Lake, theoretically any river belonging to Qingzhou will definitely be able to go to Heilong Lake, and the heads of these dead people should also know that sending them to go from the bottom of the water will not occupy the streets, so why haven't they left yet?
The ones that set off just now are just the first wave of cannon fodder, and the more murderous and vicious tricks are still to come.
As soon as I thought about it, even the horror of Ujida was dispelled in the crab demon's heart, it was not afraid of the corpses of dead people, it used it as food every day, but looking at the roast chicken on the plate, it was completely different from a roast chicken suddenly standing up and walking to the chicken coop and then the chickens in the chicken coop turned into dead chickens that could walk.
It relaxed its body and prepared to escape from Qingzhou City with the current.
"It's useless. Ujda said.
