long night fire

Her choice speaks for itself.

Long Yuehong then exhaled:

"I also think so."

Clap, clap, Shang Jianyao, who was on patrol, clapped his hands.

Chapter 14 The Missing Villager

In the morning of the next day, the "Old Tune Team" waited until the sun had fully risen before leaving the camp, and drove a jeep back to Linhe Village.

It was no different from yesterday before it got dark, except that the soil under the old locust tree showed more signs of turning.

They were left by Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong when they asked Du Shaochong to bury Du Shaochong's body in peace.

Jiang Baimian looked at it carefully for a while, and said to the team members:

"Let's go into the village."

After walking a few steps, Shang Jianyao suddenly let out an "uh".

Just when Jiang Baimian wondered if this guy had committed something wrong again, and was hesitating whether to ask, Shang Jianyao took the initiative to ask:

"You said, are the bones buried under the old locust tree still there?"

How could it be absent?We just buried it yesterday!Long Yuehong muttered in her heart.

Having said that, he still couldn't help but think about the possibility that if he was really gone.

This is very scary very scary!

The old god Jiang Baimian responded to Shang Jianyao's question on the spot:

"I just looked at it and the soil is in the same condition as when we left last night.

"Besides, since we won't try to dig out the bones now, what's the difference between whether it's there or not? You can't confirm it. Go back out of the company, take Lao Ge with you, and check again."

For some reason, upon hearing the team leader's last words, a picture suddenly appeared in Bai Chen's mind:

I waited for the carbon-based man to hide a few kilometers away, holding a telescope, watching an intelligent robot in Lao Ge digging the soil with a shovel.

"Okay..." Shang Jianyao was very disappointed that the horror development he thought of was not recognized.

The "Old Tune Group" continued to move forward and arrived at the place where they entered the village.

Shang Jian Yao turned his head to the side, and cast his eyes on the place where Xiao Chong took the kids to pee.

"Put away your current thoughts!" Jiang Baimian fully warned and stopped in advance.

Shang Jian Yao sighed and said:

"That's a holy relic!"

...Long Yuehong didn't know how to slander her for a moment.

After a few seconds, he murmured:

"Those soils are called holy relics?"

Jiang Baimian didn't give Shang Jianyao a chance to discuss this matter, and gave the order directly:

"Enter the village!"

She took the lead and walked into Linhe Village.

Bai Chen and others followed closely behind.

They looked at the situation in the houses by the road through the glass windows that were still quite intact.

The area of ​​the ruins of Swamp No. 1 has not been discovered before, so it seems that this place has not been patronized by relic hunters until now, whether it is high-end items such as TVs, refrigerators, air conditioners, cars, or tables, chairs, and instant noodles. Quietly placed in place, it has not been moved for decades.

Looking at it, Long Yuehong suddenly felt something was wrong.

Something is missing here!

In the next second, Bai Chen said:

"What about the whole village?"

No matter what happened to the villagers when the old world was destroyed, there would always be people who died and wreckage left behind, but in Linhe Village now, there is not a single corpse to be seen!

Shang Jian Yao laughed:

"Maybe they had nothing to do back then, survived the destruction of the old world, and then moved the whole village to another place.

"That's how it is with the blessing of Zhisui."

He spoke with eloquence, as if he had seen it with his own eyes.

Jiang Baimian glanced at him and said succinctly:

"Whole villages will not be relocated without food."

Especially canned food and instant noodles that are more convenient to carry.

"Maybe some people got the 'unintentional disease', and the other people were forced to evacuate in a hurry. Well, those 'unintentional people' chased them all the way and never came back." Long Yuehong tried to guess.

Bai Chen disagrees:

"If some people were to become 'intentionless' when the old world was destroyed, some of the remaining people would definitely die, and when the survivors hurriedly evacuated, if they still cared about bringing their bodies, they wouldn't stay Portable food."

Here's what she's heard and seen over the years translated into experience:

Once a large number of people suddenly become "unintentional" in a certain place, there will inevitably be people around them who are too late to guard against and will be hunted down.

And if there are not many "unintentional people" in Linhe Village, enough to be guarded by the villagers, then the survivors don't have to run away in a hurry, even without food.

"Yes." Long Yuehong nodded.

He raises another possibility:

"All turned into 'heartless people' and went to other places to find food..."

As she spoke, Long Yuehong's voice gradually became lower, because the "unintentional people" also know how to use simple tools, know how to open cans, and tear packages.

This is confirmed in the ruins of many cities.

Jiang Baimian looked around and said thoughtfully:

"What Zhi Sui provides is not necessarily blessing.

"Do you still remember the situation in Taicheng?"

Bai Chen and Long Yuehong recalled the state of the citizens of Taicheng:

They all died instantly when the old world was destroyed!

"Could it be that the people in Linhe Village also died when the old world was destroyed?" Long Yuehong wondered to herself, "But if they all died, where did the bodies go?"

Hearing this sentence, Shang Jianyao smiled.

He pressed his voice and said:

"Turned into a zombie...

"They're hiding somewhere, looking at your neck..."

Although Long Yuehong knew that this guy was telling a ghost story, after experiencing so many abnormalities, he dared not deny the possibility casually.

Jiang Baimian thought for a while and said:

"Continue to search to see if there are any clues."

They moved forward slowly, opening a certain door from time to time, entering inside, and doing a check.

The conditions in these houses are quite similar, at a certain moment in life, and then suddenly frozen in time.

Therefore, the "Old Tune Group" saw that some people had bowls and chopsticks on their tables, and the food had rotted and evaporated, leaving only some bones and stains, and some people's mop was dumped in the middle of the living room, and it seemed that half of the work was done...

This is more and more similar to Jiang Baimian's guess just now:

When the old world was destroyed, people here died instantly no matter what they were doing.

But the problem is, their bodies are gone.

"How is it?" Shang Jianyao looked at Long Yuehong and said with a smile, "A real ghost story."

"There must be some reason behind this." Long Yue Hongzui replied firmly.

"Yeah, the reason is that the corpses have mutated..." Shang Jianyao made his voice dark on purpose.

Jiang Baimian withdrew his gaze, looked not far ahead and said:

"According to my folklore knowledge, it should be the village's ancestral hall. Go and have a look, maybe you can find something interesting."

For example, a tablet with the name "Du Shaochong" written on it.

"Okay." Bai Chen didn't want to listen to Shang Jianyao's ghost stories here.

The "Old Tune Group" continued to move forward, bypassing a house, and came to the ancestral hall of Linhe Village.

This ancestral hall has the style of the old world, but both the eaves and the arches are already made of cement.

At this time, the black wooden doors of the ancestral hall were tightly closed.

"I'm going to open the door?" Shang Jian Yao rubbed his hands together and volunteered.

His Berserker assault rifle was slung across his chest.

Jiang Baimian nodded:

"Go on, be careful."

Shang Jianyao excitedly quickened his pace and walked to the gate of the ancestral hall.

He listened for a while, closed his eyes and sensed for a while, then put on his gloves and stretched out his palm to push the door.

After all, Jiang Baimian told him to be careful.

The creaking sound echoed in the open space in front of the ancestral hall as the door was opened backwards, and the situation inside was revealed to the eyes of several members of the "Old Tune Group".

Because there was a distance, Long Yuehong picked up the binoculars.

Bai Chen has undergone corresponding genetic modification, Jiang Baimian also has very strong eyesight, and still only relies on his eyes.

Soon, they saw gray and white grave bags.

These tombs are not big, and they are densely packed in the courtyard of the ancestral hall, occupying every place.

"Wow!" Shang Jianyao exclaimed.

He half turned around and shouted to Jiang Baimian and the others:

"This place has become a mass grave!"

Not only the courtyard, but also the side, rear, and place of worship of the ancestral hall seemed to be filled with graves.

Jiang Baimian stared for a while, and said to himself:

"Those bones that disappeared in the village?"

Those who died were buried in the ancestral hall?Long Yuehong was startled.

"Should." Bai Chen felt that there was no other possibility.

She then pursed her lips:

"But who buried them?"

survivor?Long Yuehong guessed in her heart.

But he quickly overturned this possibility.

Because the survivors will not not consume or take away those cans and instant noodles.

Shang Jianyao looked at the entrance of the ancestral hall for a while, until Jiang Baimian and others came to his side, and he said with reverence:

"It should be that a few people survived and buried the dead in the whole village in the ancestral hall."

This is the same as Long Yuehong's speculation just now, but the next development is completely different:

"At the same time, they also lost the confidence to live, dug their own graves, and then buried themselves."

It unfolded horribly and sadly... Long Yuehong muttered.

He didn't refute it, because it was a possibility.
