death to survive

The closer you get to the village surrounded by bamboo and wooden railings, the more weird everyone feels.

Inside the windows of the houses in the village, it was pitch black, and there was no movement or sound around.Generally, if you enter such a place, there will be the sound of chickens barking and dogs barking.However, before they all reached the big wooden fence outside the village fence, there was no reaction at all.

Wang Yang stretched out his index finger in doubt, and pushed open the wooden fence door that had not been closed. The door was opened to the inside with a "squeak" sound, and what caught everyone's eyes was a somewhat crude wooden fence made of mud and stones. dirt road.

On both sides of the dirt road are wooden houses made of wood and bamboo. The design of the house is far from the ground, and the four legs under the house are set high, similar to a stilt building, a similar type of architectural style.

There is a large distance between the house and the ground, suspended above it, to prevent the invasion of those snakes, insects and beasts in the forest.On the top of the roof is a roof made of palm leaves and other unknown grasses. The two sides are down and the triangular roof is raised in the middle. Drain, do not collapse and destroy the house.

However, the stilt houses you see here are not as beautiful and neat as those built in tourist areas to attract customers.

The houses on stilts in this village are crooked houses. The wood on the walls has begun to turn black, looking old and dilapidated. The weeds on the roof have also been washed by the rain for many years, and thick moss has grown. .Generally speaking, the houses are very old and dilapidated, just built for sleeping and basic living, without other superfluous functions, so there is not so much beauty to speak of.

Everyone spread out and knocked on the doors and windows of the houses on both sides of the dirt road, but no matter how hard they knocked on the door, there was no response from inside, and it was like this in every house they knocked on.

Seeing that the door of one house was just closed and basically unlocked, everyone curiously opened the door and went in, looking inside.Taking advantage of the light in the sky, I looked at the dark interior, simple beds, chairs and benches, and some basic daily necessities. By looking at the furnishings and signs of some things in the house, I knew that someone should have lived here for a long time. But I don't know why there is no one in it now.

I tried to see a few of these houses through the windows or cracks in the doors, but I didn’t see or find a single person inside. I don’t know if the people in this village had some important activities and they all went out together.

Everyone walked a little further to the front of the dirt road, and saw a house that was considered to be the most neatly built and spacious in this village. It was not like the dilapidated and simple houses on stilts that we saw at first.Other stilt houses only use simple wood to support the four legs, but this house is made of many large pieces of wood piled up one by one. It is still made of mud and stone.

From the looks of it, this house should be regarded as the house of rich or powerful people in this village...

"This house is not bad. Is it where the patriarch-level people live in their village?" Wang Yang looked up at the house in front of him with satisfaction, which was considered the best-level house compared to other stilt houses.First, I pushed open the unclosed wooden door of the house. The inside of the door is also a little different from other high-rise buildings.It’s not just a room that includes everything, but a hall in the middle, a large room on the left, and two small rooms on the right. There is a door near the wall of the hall, which is probably leading to the kitchen or the back. It is a place to draw water.

"Well, this one is the best among other houses. I think it should belong to their patriarch. house." Qiao Feiyu agreed with Wang Yang's question, and looked at the old things in the hall.

On the wall of the hall, there are many animal skulls and horns for decoration, including deer heads, bears, and many animal skeletons that have not been seen before.On the edge of the wall, there is a navy blue dress with a unique shape, and a hat with a white cloth dotted with animal fur. These should be the national costumes worn by the people in this village, right?It is clear from the clothes that they have entered a village of ethnic minorities.

Seeing everyone's appearance, they all started to allocate their own rooms very naturally, preparing for sleeping and resting at night.Li You tugged Fang Zhihong's sleeve, a little worried and embarrassed: "Well, Zhihong, wouldn't it be too good for us to live in other people's homes so casually? What if they come back and find us It's not polite, what should I do?"

In his education, it is very impolite to go to other people's homes without their consent.Moreover, the most important thing is that this village is still inhabited by ethnic minorities. If the language barrier violates their taboo, the fight will be bad.

"This..." Fang Zhihong also hesitated a little, not quite getting used to everyone's familiarity, and went directly to other people's houses.

"Ah, ah, ah." Wang Yang waved his hands to these two entangled people to signal them not to think too much: "We also want to say hello to the owner here before we come in, but you also saw that , There is no one in this village now. If we want to say hello, there is no one to call, so we can’t sleep in the wild because of this, right? Let’s live here first, and if the people here come back, we will explain it to them. "

"Yeah, you two should live here and rest for a while. No one is here, so we can't find anyone to tell us. If they come, they will understand our situation." Qiao Feiyu spoke to the side , to persuade the two disturbed people.

In order for everyone to have a good rest, and considering Li You's condition, Fang Zhihong relaxed first, and turned to comfort Li You. Under Fang Zhihong's comfort, the two finally moved into the room assigned to them with peace of mind. , the side room on the right.

Because there are beds in the three rooms, it is a pity that the size of the beds cannot fit so many of them together, and considering that Fang Zhihong and Li You are lovers, since there are so few rooms, let the two of them Stay alone together and talk about feelings or something.As for the mysterious and mutated Xiao Yi, others really dare not sleep in the same room with him.Therefore, Wang Yangguang was honored and naturally assigned to sleep in the big room on the left with Xiao Yi, while Qiao Feiyu and Lin Jie slept in another room on the right.

……

"Hahahaha!!" Smiling and pushing the door into the assigned room, Wang Yang took the door behind him and locked it, based on his conditioned defense after being constantly attacked by zombies these days.Facing Xiao Yi, who was sitting by the bed and had taken the fighting shower before him, he laughed triumphantly and said, "That idiot Qiao Feiyu never hit me, and I snatched all the water to take a shower, didn't you see that?" He looks depressed and crazy now, hahahaha! It's ridiculous!" Thinking of Qiao Feiyu's angry, depressed and crazy expression, Wang Yang couldn't help but want to laugh out loud.

Because there was no running water, I wandered around the house for a long time before I found the back door and went down. I found a very primitive well and a small bucket beside the well.In order to save trouble, everyone chose a large wooden barrel they found, and filled the large wooden barrel after pumping up the water.Take a shower with the water in the big bucket, and wash the dirty clothes on your body by the way.

And Wang Yang, who came out of the room after putting things away, stood by the well, and watched Qiao Feiyu patiently as he poured the water up in small buckets, and then poured it into the big wooden bucket.

After Qiao Feiyu finally filled the big wooden bucket, Wang Yang ran over directly, picked up the bucket and went to take a bath. Qiao Feiyu was so angry that he didn't fight Wang Yang, so he had no choice but to fetch water again.

The fruit that was snatched is goodness, Wang Yang did not know how comfortable the bath was, and walked towards Xiao Yi with a smile.In order to ensure cleanliness, even if Xiao Yi didn't splash any visible dirt on his clothes when he killed the python, he was ordered by Wang Yang to wash them off. He didn't want to have nightmares at night about the smell of snakes all over his body.

It's a pity that Xiao Yi's only two sets of clothes, one was stained with Yuan Sitian's minced flesh and was shot through and lost, and the other was the gray T-shirt, which was now wrung out of the stool that was sitting in the house Let dry.So at this time Xiao Yi was only wearing a pair of jeans, and sat on the edge of the bed with his upper body shirtless, lowering his head and wiping his already sharp knife.

Xiao Yi heard Wang Yang's characteristic footsteps approaching from a long distance away, and knew that he had come.Raising his head, Xiao Yi stared at the white tight vest and black sports trousers that Wang Yang put on after taking a shower, his eyes narrowed, and the obsidian-like black pupils became even darker.

The close-fitting white vest that Wang Yang was wearing perfectly outlined his lean and strong figure, and his wheat-colored skin was more sexy and attractive against the backdrop of the white fabric.A head of black curly hair that was still damp with water, and the tips of the hair were still dripping with water droplets, and the water droplets all over the body, Wang Yang sloppy did not completely wipe off these water spots.Therefore, the white vest, which was not very thick, was wet in many places and became translucent, and the two spots of color on the chest could be vaguely seen.

He didn't know what he was like now, in Xiao Yi's eyes, it was like a woman wearing only a men's shirt that was still wet, standing in front of a normal man.

Frightened by Xiao Yi's staring eyes, Wang Yang lowered his head and looked at his whole body, is there anything wrong?Why do you still stare at him with such hatred?Feeling strange and puzzled in his heart, suddenly, the wound on his back shoulder started to hurt again, and Wang Yang couldn't help but want to reach for the wound with his backhand.It's just taking off the bandage and taking a shower, so it doesn't hurt to get hurt all of a sudden, right?

Seeing that Wang Yang's complexion began to turn strange, Xiao Yi stood up, dragged Wang Yang to the bed, checked the wound on his back, and saw that the part where the wound had been bitten open gradually began to turn black again, Xiao Yi stretched out his hand to put the wound on his back. The dagger by the bed was in the palm of his hand.

"What's wrong? The wound started to spread again?" Wang Yang didn't have much hope at first, hoping that Xiao Yi's blood could restrain his virus, but he didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

"It's okay, it's just that you need to drink blood again."
