Chapter 4 The fourth quarter practice courage

When Xu Qiuyuan and Cheng Wansheng came to Yizhuang, they saw two security guards standing at the door from a distance.When the security team saw the mayor coming, they quickly saluted and informed the security captain inside.The security captain of Wanshan Town is called Chu Xin. He has a careless personality and is very impulsive, so he got the nickname "Captain Careless". Captain Careless is usually on patrol at this time, but he was sent by the mayor to wait in Yizhuang tonight, which made him very dissatisfied.As soon as Cheng Wansheng came in, he protested: "Mayor, everyone in the town is in danger now. Our security team should patrol and guard. Why did you call me to such a dead place?"

Cheng Wansheng glared at Chu Xin: "Captain Chu, I have arranged for you to come here, so don't be impatient." As soon as Xu Qiuyuan entered the Yizhuang, he found a corpse covered with a white cloth on the ground. There was a large red-brown bloodstain in the middle of the white cloth, which had obviously dried up not long ago.Xu Qiuyuan pulled back the white cloth, revealing a bloody and bloody face, this face is unsightly, two eyeballs fell out of nowhere, half of the nose was cut off, leaving one side, this face There is only a small fleshy hole left on one side. The mouth looks like it was cut by some sharp weapon. It is split from the left side to the root of the ear. The flesh is turned outward, revealing the half-yellow teeth. The whole face is covered with crisscross lines Inch-wide scars, overflowing with yellow liquid.

Xu Qiuyuan has been working with corpses all his life. He has never seen any corpses before. Although the scene in front of him was a bit disgusting, he didn't even frown.Cheng Wansheng looked at it suddenly, said "Oh my god", and didn't care about anything else, he ran outside and vomited in a daze, and vomited the meal from the Narcissus Tower. After examining the corpse carefully, Xu Qiuyuan said, "As expected, it was done by zombies." Captain Careless has worked with Xu Qiuyuan several times, and has always admired Xu Qiuyuan's ability.Knowing what Xu Qiuyuan said, he must know something.He asked: "Mr. Xu, what's going on? Why do the few people who died recently look like this? What the hell is this murderer?"

Although Captain Careless is usually a bit rude, he is quite upright. Xu Qiuyuan found this person quite pleasing to the eye, and he replied: "Captain, this person's whole body has been caught to a pulp, and the wounds seem to have been cut by sharp knives. The corpse gas is already present, which is obviously the work of zombies." Cheng Wansheng came in just after vomiting, and after hearing Xu Qiuyuan's explanation, he asked, "Uncle Xu, what are zombies?" Xu Qiuyuan thought for a while and said: "When a person dies and does not transform, there are several mutations in the case of a fraudulent corpse: dead and stiff, with fluff on the body, and who bites anyone is a zombie; dead and not transformed, the body is stiff and lifeless The fluff, if you see people, you will tear it, and you will be a zombie; if you die, you will rot, there is no fluff, and the body is soft, and you will bite it when you see people, it is a corpse; If you pinch and chase, it is a walking corpse. And so on, the death of this corpse matches what a zombie did."

Cheng Wansheng had never heard of zombies, so he hurriedly asked, "Then what should we do? Is there a way to deal with it?" Xu Qiuyuan smiled: "The zombie body has accumulated corpse gas for many years, and Goudan took out the 'throat pill' of the ancient corpse to release the corpse gas. The ancient corpse was affected by the corpse gas and turned into a zombie, but zombies are much easier to deal with than zombies." As he spoke, he counted with his fingers, and then said, "It's the second watch, and I missed the time to deal with zombies. Wan Sheng, order someone to prepare some hollow steel arrows tomorrow, and find some good archers. Wooden planks Fifty yuan, the size of a dining table, and a bundle of thick hemp rope for the wrist. Also, clear a 100-meter road in front of the town gate, and strictly prohibit nearby residents from coming out. In addition, you need ten catties of incense ash. At midnight, And watch me subdue the zombies."

After Cheng Wansheng sent Xu Qiuyuan away, he ordered Captain Careless to make preparations overnight. mass grave Nong Fan and Ning Xuehan chatted until it was dawn, and Ning Xuehan got up to leave. After this long conversation, Nong Fan knew that Ning Xuehan had to cast spells to guard her body every night because of her body. Naxiao point, so she meditates and rests during the day, and only comes out to move at night. At the same time, he also learned that in order to prevent changes in the tomb, Ning Xuehan often used illusions to deter grave robbers and interested people. The ghosts he saw before were exactly what she had transformed.

Thinking of this, Nong Fan became angry, and thought to himself: Zhang Xiaoluo, that damned girl, didn't tell me the truth, she kept me in the dark, and scared me to death. Let's see how I deal with you when you come. Looking at Ning Xuehan who was about to enter the grave, Nong Fan hesitated, and blurted out: "Miss Ning, can I see you tonight?" Ning Xuehan had already stepped into the secret door with one foot. When she heard Nong Fan's question, she paused and said, "If Mr. Nong wants to meet you, call three times in front of the grave." All dementia look.

As soon as it was daylight, Zhang Xiaoluo got up to cook, and as soon as he walked out of the room, he saw Xu Qiuyuan pushing open the door and coming in.Zhang Xiaoluo bowed and said: "Master, good morning." "Not good." Xu Qiuyuan replied coldly. Zhang Xiaoluo giggled, knowing that Xu Qiuyuan was still angry yesterday: "Master, I want to make Baixiang Braised Pork at noon. I wonder if Master likes it or not?" "Really?!" Xu Qiuyuan has traveled to many places in his life, and has eaten a lot of delicacies in various places, but he only prefers Zhang Xiaoluo's homemade braised pork with passion fruit.

When Xu Qiuyuan heard that Zhang Xiaoluo was going to cook his favorite dish, he was overjoyed, but when he thought that he was busy, he couldn't help being disappointed and said: "I want to go back to town immediately, I won't be able to come back before tomorrow, I can’t eat anymore, can I do it the day after tomorrow?” Hearing that Xu Qiuyuan has something to do today, Zhang Xiaoluo rejoiced secretly: "That's great, so I can spend a day alone with my junior brother." Thinking of this, she couldn't help showing a smile on her face: "Okay, disciple even I want to make three days of passion-flavored braised pork for Master, so that Master can have a good time."

Zhang Xiaoluo's braised pork is quite special, it not only pays attention to the heat, but also pays attention to the ingredients and time, so it is not easy to make, usually even Xu Qiuyuan grinds Zhang Xiaoluo to make it, but she refuses to do it.Hearing that he could eat delicious food for three days in a row, Xu Qiuyuan laughed happily, and the anger of being hungry all day yesterday disappeared. After making breakfast, Zhang Xiaoluo carried a rice basket to deliver food to Nongfan, and when she came to the mass grave to see, Nongfan was in a daze again, and she called "junior brother" from a distance, presumably the price she paid for scaring Nongfan yesterday She has learned to be good.

Nong Fan turned his head and greeted Zhang Xiaoluo. Zhang Xiaoluo had just taken two steps when Nong Fan suddenly screamed: "Be careful, there are snakes!" The cry was both panic and nervous.Zhang Xiaoluo uttered a strange cry in fright, and ran around, shouting, "Ah... where is it? Where is it? Help!" Not to mention how embarrassing it was like that, but after he regained his composure, he found that there was no snake around.Looking at Nong Fan, he was covering his stomach and laughing. It turned out that Zhang Xiaoluo was afraid of snakes since childhood.She was very naughty when she first lived in Luyezhuang with Xu Qiuyuan.Once when I got up in the hut in the middle of the night, I saw many fireflies flying outside the village. I was so playful that I followed the fireflies deep into a jungle near the mass grave.In the end, after chasing for a long time, she realized that she was lost. This fear made the road more and more chaotic. Just when she was frightened, a green bamboo leaf jumped into her vision, and the little girl couldn't bear it any longer, and burst into tears.The little girl was so frightened that she only knew how to cry but forgot to run away. Seeing that the poisonous snake opened its mouth and was about to bite her, at a critical moment she caught the poisonous snake with one hand and rescued her from the snake's mouth. The person who rescued her was none other than Ning Xuehan.Zhang Xiaoluo saw that Ning Xuehan was very beautiful, even though she was gloomy, and rescued her again, she forgot to be afraid in joy. In fact, Ning Xuehan didn't want to make a move at first, but when she saw the little girl crying miserably, she couldn't help being moved with compassion, so she took the initiative to save her.One of these two is innocent and lively, the other is lonely and lonely all the year round. They chat very happily within less than a moment of getting along.For a long time afterwards, Zhang Xiaoluo often went to Ning Xuehan to play and talk with Ning Xuehan in the middle of the night without telling Xu Qiuyuan. Later, Xu Qiuyuan found out, not only locked her up for several months, but also ordered her not to see Ning Xuehan again, otherwise she would be expelled from the division.In fact, Xu Qiuyuan was also doing it for Zhang Xiaoluo's good. Ning Xuehan lived on the Naxiao Point, with a strong evil spirit, which was extremely harmful to people. If Zhang Xiaoluo kept in touch with her for a long time, he would get seriously ill or even die. Zhang Xiaoluo stared at Nong Fan viciously, already becoming angry from embarrassment.She snapped and asked, "How do you know I'm afraid of snakes? You dare to make fun of me, you don't have to eat today's food." "Haha, senior sister, you lied to me first. You pretended not to know Miss Ning, and then lied to me to stay away from her. But not only have you known each other for many years, but she also saved you." Nong Fan was still smiling, not at all. Worry about food. Zhang Xiaoluo was taken aback when he heard the words, it turned out that Ning Xuehan told Nong Fan about her childhood embarrassment.She said angrily: "I have known Sister Ning for many years, but I didn't lie to you. Sister Ning has a very evil spirit. After being with her for a long time, she will be seriously ill or die tragically. Back then, I killed a Only after a serious illness did Master know about it." Nong Fan thought that most of what Zhang Xiaoluo said was true, and last night Ning Xuehan also advised him to see each other less in the future.Thinking of this, he felt a little uncomfortable. Seeing Nongfan's disappointed expression, Zhang Xiaoluo was very worried: "Junior Brother, you must be looking for Sister Ning, right? You have to figure it out, you came here to practice courage, so that you can meet the conditions to enter the master's sect! " No wonder Zhang Xiaoluo thinks so, although Ning Xuehan is a weird person, even a little scary, but her holy beauty is indeed easy to seduce men. Seeing that Nong Fan remained silent, Zhang Xiaoluo was even more worried: "You can't like sister Ning, it's impossible for you." "Don't worry, I just see her lonely and sympathize with her, I don't have any wrong thoughts." Hearing what Nong Fan said, Zhang Xiaoluo felt relieved, and said with a smile: "I may not have seen Sister Ning for a long time, Master has something to do today, so I will spend this last night with you." The two chattered, and time passed. At night, the mass graves were once again shrouded in eerie terror.Nong Fan didn't know whether he was used to this place or because he was accompanied by Zhang Xiaoluo. He felt that the mass grave was not as eerie and eerie as the previous two nights. Seeing Nong Fan's relaxed face, Zhang Xiaoluo said, "Junior brother, if you don't have real courage, you won't be able to join the corpse hunting party. Sister Ning was merciful to you two nights ago. You can't see the real horror. See you later." Sister Ning, I just ask her to conjure up the scariest scene for you to experience." Nong Fan shuddered: "Ah, Senior Sister, this...isn't it necessary? I think I'm brave enough now." "No, if you don't go through this test, something will happen sooner or later, don't worry, those are illusions, nothing to be afraid of." Zhang Xiaoluo looked malicious. "You...you must have been sent by Master to monitor me. I...huh, I will see it when I see it. Let alone a ghost, even if there are thousands of them, I will not be afraid." So, three hours later, the mass grave ushered in the scariest scene in a century: numerous ghosts, terrifying wailing sounds, heinous ghost faces, and sharp and abnormal screams, mixed in the darkness of the deep mountains and wild forests. "Enough, enough... I'm about to throw up." Nong Fan's face was pale, and his whole body was trembling.Next to him, Zhang Xiaoluo kept giggling, while Ning Xuehan remained indifferent. Seeing Nong Fan repeatedly begging for mercy, Ning Xuehan waved her hand, and all kinds of illusions dissipated out of thin air. Zhang Xiaoluo patted Nong Fan's head while laughing and said, "Although the ghost is ugly, you are too timid, aren't you? Look, your pants are wet." Nong Fan lowered his head when he heard the words, it turned out that he was so frightened that he lost control, he couldn't help but blushed, he didn't expect to lose his composure in front of the two women, he really wanted to find a hole to get in. Zhang Xiaoluo couldn't stop laughing all the time, Nong Fan's anger gradually rose in his heart, he said to himself: A majestic man is not as good as a little girl, if it spreads, it will be a joke. Thinking of this, he turned his head to Ning Xuehan and said, "Miss Ning, can I trouble you to transform again." Ning Xuehan and Zhang Xiaoluo were taken aback when they heard the words, just now he was so scared that he kept begging for mercy, why now he wants to do it again. Without asking why, Ning Xuehan said in a cold voice: "It's just a matter of raising your hands, the young master is optimistic about it." What Ning Xuehan transformed this time was corpses covered in maggots.These corpses had broken arms and legs, rotten bodies, or beyond recognition. All the ghosts were dangling in front of Nongfan with their teeth and claws open, as ugly as they could be. Nong Fan suppressed the feeling of nausea, his eyes skipped from one to another, he knew that no matter how ugly and fierce these corpses were, they would not hurt him.Now the only way to restore the bit of dignity that was just lost is by not changing face. As the saying goes: "It's not unusual to see it often, but it's more strange to see it rarely." Under the "inspection" over and over again, Nong Fan actually felt less disgusting.He smiled and said: "Actually, there is nothing to panic about. After watching it for a long time, I feel that I am used to it. I am quite courageous." Nong Fan, who consciously saved a little face, was a little proud. Zhang Xiaoluo snorted and said, "Sister Ning, let him see what terror is, and see if this guy dares to be arrogant." Ning Xuehan looked at Nong Fan and said, "Young Master Nong, do you dare to take a look?" Nong Fan was also a little curious, wondering what kind of terrifying things Ning Xuehan could conjure up.He patted his chest and said, "I'm already very confident in myself, so I'd like to trouble Miss Ning to make another move." Ning Xuehan's eyes flashed an inexplicable and inexplicable light, and she said quietly: "What I transformed this time is a corpse I saw a few years ago. This corpse killed itself by biting its tongue. Tongue, was abandoned in the mountains, three days the body rotted, four days the smell of the corpse attracted wild beasts to eat, the body was bloody and bloody. Five days the corpse was maggots, attracting insects to feed on it, producing a disgusting stench. Six days the corpse oozes pus Black. After seven days, only white bones and a little rotting flesh remain. Look, this is what the corpse looks like." After she finished speaking, she turned around and turned into a corpse. Her face was bare bones, and half of the hair on the top of her head had been torn off. One side was crawling with wriggling maggots.The skull has a little rotting flesh, covered with maggots.One eyeball was nowhere to be found, revealing a fleshy red-black hole, the other was hanging from the face, with a blue-yellow muscle attached to the eyeball, dangling on the face.The nose in the middle has been bitten off by wild beasts, exposing two small dark holes where maggots crawl in and out from time to time. Ning Xuehan didn't fully reveal the appearance of the corpse, but the appearance of the head alone made Nong Fan take three steps back. He was afraid, disgusted, surprised, and more unbelievable .All kinds of feelings made him overwhelmed, and he fell to the ground weakly. Nong Fan stared blankly for a long time, stood up tremblingly and said, "That's enough, Miss Ning, I don't want to watch any more." Ning Xuehan turned around and restored her pale and peerless beauty.She said coldly, "Young Master Nong, are you scared?" "No, I'm just not used to this contrast. Miss Ning, you shouldn't use illusions on yourself." Nong Fan shook his head in denial. "No matter what kind of person they are, they all have a beautiful and ugly side. In many things, the ugly side is more real." For some reason, when Ning Xuehan, who had always been indifferent, said these words, Nong Fan and Zhang Xiaoluo felt that she His tone was full of helplessness and loneliness. Thinking of Ning Xuehan's words, Nong Fan felt a little enlightened.Everything in this world has its beauty and ugliness. Life itself is originally composed of beauty and ugliness.Maybe beautifying one's own existence is sometimes not as easy as living naturally.Why should I care so much about beauty and ugliness? While Nong Fan was meditating, suddenly there was a noisy sound from the wild forest in the south, including shouts, shouts, and screams.Judging from the sound source, those voices were approaching the mass grave. Zhang Xiaoluo asked curiously: "There seem to be a lot of people coming here, it's strange, what are they doing here?"
