The Secret Art of Refining the Dead: The Walking Corpse File

Chapter 173

After parting from Wu Shiling and others, the few of us started to hurry on our way.During the whole process, Zhou Xuanye was always leading the way. He said that he had a way to find Tan Ren, but he didn't say anything at all, and the route we traveled was completely a return route. If we didn't know the relationship between Tan Ren and Zhou Xuanye, I almost wondered if Zhou Xuanye planned to ignore him.

Two days later, before my eyes, the cliff that I had lodged for more than a week had already appeared. Of course, everyone had no intention of going up at this moment, and Zhou Xuanye still led the way without saying a word.During this period of time, he seemed very abnormal. I tried to ask a few questions, but he stopped him with a very hurtful tone.

I don't want to recall exactly what he said, but it's not a good memory anyway.

In the end, Song Qiaoming himself felt embarrassed, and said after deliberation: "Boss Zhou, don't worry about our hurrying, it doesn't matter if I go back later, it doesn't matter even if the bodies are missing, the living people are more important, we It's important to find Boss Tan first."

Zhou Xuanye, who was walking in front, immediately stopped when he heard the words, and said with his head sideways: "This is already the edge of Savage Mountain, let's break up here."

"Break up?" The words made Song Qiaoming's eyes widen.

Zhou Xuanye said: "I'm going to look for senior brother, this process will be a bit troublesome, you don't have to waste time here with me. After speaking, he looked at the dead body that was walking behind us, and said: "This corpse, I can't go, so go back yourself.Only one corpse was found, so I only smoked one-third of the price we negotiated before. "

Song Qiaoming wiped his face and said: "Boss Zhou, what you said is wrong, who do you think we are, you guys have been getting along for a month, don't you know who I am, Song. How can I let you and Xiao Su search for someone in this forest, how long will it take? How dangerous is it?"

Before Zhou Xuanye could speak, Brother Yang said in a deep voice; "There are many people and strength, so it's easier to find some."

Sunja also nodded.

Zhou Xuanye did not answer Song Qiaoming's question, but said: "You misunderstood, I mean, you all leave, I stay here alone." He motioned to me.

All of a sudden, I felt angry in my heart, and said, "Boss, I don't care if the rest of you leave or not, but I won't."

"Reason?" Zhou Xuanye said nonchalantly. He is usually a person who loves to laugh, but during this time, there was hardly any expression on his face.

"...The boss treats me well, if I go back by myself at this time, am I still human!"

Zhou Xuanye had an indifferent expression at first, but in the end he didn't know what he thought of, and suddenly smiled at the corner of his mouth, showing a rather strange expression, and said, "Since you are so loyal, then I have no choice but to help you." , signaling Song Qiaoming and others to go first, your expression is very indifferent.

Song Qiaoming and the others looked at each other in blank dismay, and tried to persuade Zhou Xuanye to change his mind, but to no avail, they sighed, and finally had to part ways.When parting, Song Qiaoming pulled me aside and said in a low voice, "Xiao Su, are you really not going with us? Don't you think there is something wrong with Boss Zhou? I always feel that something will happen if you are with him."

Why don't I know something is wrong with Zhou Xuanye, but so what, let him really be alone in this jungle?The ghost knows what kind of moth he will make.

"Boss Song, thank you for your concern, but I have made up my mind, I have to stay and figure out what's going on."

Seeing this, Song Qiaoming sighed, and patted me on the shoulder: "Forget it, then you must be careful. Boss Zhou is not doing well recently, so you should be more careful." After finishing speaking, he suddenly handed it to me. Stuff stuffed into my trouser pocket.I touched it and found it was a pistol.

I was very surprised, and when I was about to speak, Song Qiaoming gave me a wink, indicating that I should not speak out, and then said in a low voice: "Keep your hand in everything." Immediately afterwards, Brother Yang, Shunzi and others said goodbye to us one by one After a while, several people disappeared from my sight.

The original mighty team broke up twice, and finally only Zhou Xuanye and I were left.

Two people, two equipment bags, alone, in this poisonous Burmese jungle, there is no difference between tiny ants.The most important thing is that Zhou Xuanye was very angry and didn't say a word, just like a corpse he drove himself. I walked behind him and didn't say a word for several hours.

In the end, I couldn't hold back anymore, and said, "Boss, where are we going now?"

Zhou Xuanye said without turning his head, "Where there is water."

After being reminded by his words, I suddenly remembered that the direction we are traveling now is not the position where we were fishing and camping at the beginning?Is he going to go to that water source?Why are we going there now?Isn't there a lot of hairy corpses in that place?
My heart sank, and I said, "Where are you going? Tan Ren disappeared in the wet swamp. If you want to find someone, you should go there..."

Before I could finish speaking, Zhou Xuanye blocked me directly: "If you're afraid, it's still too late to go after Song Qiaoming." There was undisguised contempt in that tone.I was irritated by his indifferent attitude, and finally couldn't help but exploded: "Zhou Xuanye, what the hell happened to you, can you tell me if you have something to say, don't be so fucking yin and yang! I provoked you!"

After the roar, Zhou Xuanye's footsteps paused, and his other hand suddenly touched the back of his shoulder, and put it on the exposed sword hilt.

I was startled, and took a step back suddenly. My first reaction at that moment was to subconsciously touch the gun Song Qiaoming gave me.

"Choke." Si Guijian was pulled out in an instant, and I immediately took out the pistol.To be honest, all of this is a subconscious reaction of a person in a crisis situation. I never thought that I would point the gun at Zhou Xuanye.

Then the next second, Zhou Xuanye's sword didn't come towards me, but stabbed towards the lower right position, and a black water splashed out.I was stunned for a moment, and when I looked around, I found that there was a huge black spider the size of a human head hiding in the vegetation at his feet.

But at this moment, Si Guijian directly pierced the spider.

After all this was done, Zhou Xuanye put the sword back into its sheath, but I forgot to put away the gun in my hand because I was shocked.He turned his head and looked at the muzzle of the gun that was pointing straight at him, a mocking smile appeared on his mouth, and he let out a sneer, then turned his head and walked on without saying a word.

At this moment, I was shrouded in a kind of shame, which was indescribable, so for a long time to come, I didn't have the courage to ask any more questions.In the end, I couldn't bear the torment in my heart, so I apologized: "Boss, I was too narrow-minded just now, don't take it to heart."

Zhou Xuanye didn't reply to me, just ignored it.

At the time of sunset, we returned to the original waters.

After more than ten days, there have been two more rains, so the traces of our previous camping have long since disappeared.The only thing that surprised me was that the raft we had built before was still half stranded on the shore.Seeing it, I seemed to see the scene where everyone worked together to build the raft half a month ago, and in a blink of an eye, they all went their separate ways.

At this moment, the sun had not completely set, and a layer of golden waves spread across the water. Zhou Xuanye stood by the water for a while, took out a compass, and then slowly adjusted his position on the spot, and began to think about Go to the position pointed by the red line of the compass.

I quickly remembered that this position was the position when the green hair first appeared.

At that time, I thought Zhou Xuanye was going to the toilet, but the one squatting there was a green hair.After a lot of tossing, we just wanted to leave this ghost place quickly, and we didn't go to the location where the green hair appeared at that time.

Now it seems that Zhou Xuanye is obviously going towards that position.

I followed behind him, paying close attention to the movement around him. After all, it was getting dark, and there was a purple fur that was almost burned to death by me, so I don't know if it is still lingering around here.It is said that the hair corpse does not have the habit of moving. It usually moves wherever it was 'born'. I reckon that the purple hair should be nearby, and it will come out to cause trouble when it gets dark. It will be troublesome then.

Compared to all the anxieties in my heart, Zhou Xuanye seemed not in a hurry. He walked forward slowly according to the instructions of the compass. The direction would occasionally change, but they were all within a general direction.

After more than ten minutes, Zhou Xuanye stopped. At the same time, I smelled a familiar smell in my nose.

The stench of corpses.

Very strong corpse smell.

I looked forward, and saw a large open space in front of me, with no vegetation growing, but the entire open space showed a dark brown color, and there was a layer of sticky things on the surface of the open space, I don't know what it was.

The strong smell of corpses emanates from this open space. There are many lumps scattered on the surface of the sticky open space. I didn't recognize what it was at first, until I squatted down and observed it closely. The lump closest to me, Shiwu, discovered that it turned out to be meat.

Some are the meat of wild animals, while others are obviously human flesh, because the flesh is covered with human bones, so it is very easy to distinguish.

I immediately realized that those hairy corpses were probably born from this open space.

This is a pile of corpses.
