Time passed by, and Brother Kuan lay on the ground and kept twitching. Everyone looked at him sadly, and all the anger and complaints in their hearts disappeared at this moment. Brother Kuan's misfortune came so suddenly that even he himself

We didn't realize that this man who was full of anger before he died just left us.

Finally, Brother Kuan suddenly stood up with blood-red eyes. As soon as he took a step frantically, he tripped over the rope and fell to the ground.

Hua Zi sighed and raised the machete high, but I stopped him.

"Forget it, Brother Kuan is timid, it's better not to end his life in such a cruel way...leave him a complete body..."

Hua Zi slowly put down the knife, looked at Brother Kuan who was struggling to climb on the ground, and shook his head helplessly.

The group of people got back on their horses and drove towards the end of the city. Everyone was silent, but with gloomy faces, as if they had experienced something thrilling. Brother Kuan was let go and wandered alone in the city.

Alley, he can finally live the life he longed for,

Keep aloof from the world and have no distractions. There is no need to fear anything, let alone resent the ridicule and insults of others... The red motorcycle parked in this gray world, and from then on integrated here, it will gradually become

The ruins have become part of this doomsday world.

Jiayi sat quietly behind me and hugged me tightly. Seeing that I was silent and had a solemn expression, she comforted her with concern: "Tianlong, are you still struggling with what happened just now...

.”

"Well, no, I just feel that Brother Kuan's death is not worth it."

I looked back at her, then gently brushed my wind-blown hair.

"Maybe to you, his death is not worth it, but in his own opinion, maybe his current state is much more comfortable than his original state of survival."

"Haha... Where did this statement come from? Is life so unsatisfactory?"

I felt that I didn't agree with this, so I sneered.

"Have you forgotten what he said before he died? In fact, he was not inclined to such a life. On the contrary, he longed for the peaceful days in the past. But in today's world, escape is impossible. Even if you are barely surviving, you must live with all your strength.

Go on. Brother Kuan is an extremely reserved person. He is used to living in his own world. In the past, he could have abandoned this chaotic society and lived alone.

.But the real apocalypse is not like this. He needs to fight zombies, work with a team to survive, and even lower his dignity among the crowd in order to get along with everyone. Brother Kuan’s character is not consistent with these, so he is subject to

Everyone was ostracized and even resentful. Now that he is gone, he has left us forever and lives in another world. This may be exactly what he wanted..."

Jiayi's words are profound. It seems that in such a short period of time, she has understood Brother Kuan's entire outlook on life. But I admit that she is indeed right. Brother Kuan's rejection of this group is obviously greater than his dependence on it. In his life

He is not happy. Rather than letting him live in such a difficult and timid world, it would be better to be in his current state. At least his heart is free, with no pain and no resentment.

Brother Kuan left the team, leaving us alone. The lineup now seems to be much neater. Four black motorcycles led the way. Huazi and the others were waving sticks and machetes, talking and laughing, and everyone helped each other during exercise.

, they joked with each other during the break. I don’t want to express any opinions on Brother Kuan’s existence, but I have to admit that the team needs a generous fighting spirit and a unified goal.

Hua Zi and the others are making rapid progress, and the neat team is tightly knitted together. We face crises and hardships on the way south, and we all bear them together. Now we are like real brothers, a group of passionate, upright hunters.

Everyone unanimously calls me "Brother Tianlong" and Jiayi "Sister-in-law". They treat Jiayi and me as their own brothers and sisters-in-law. No matter what suggestions Jiayi and I put forward, they will happily accept them.

Guidance, and more importantly, obedience. I

I don’t know how I got such a blessing. Since the team was separated, I have gone through great pains to save the lives of the couple, and now I am accompanying such a group of brothers. It seems that if we survive a disaster, there will be blessings in the future. Our journey south

The plan will definitely come true!

With more people and greater strength, everyone is no longer afraid of the walking corpses on the road. Combining the speed of the motorcycle and Bailong, it is estimated that they will reach Huaihua in a few days.

The area along the way is surrounded by lush mountains, and the undulating hills are flowing with bright green, like ribbons, decorating this ancient and mysterious world. The wild flowers on the stone cliffs are blooming extremely gorgeously, exuding bursts of fragrance.

The soft breeze flows slowly to every corner. The houses at the foot of the mountainside reveal a touch of blue bricks in the distance, and the dilapidated white and gray walls have high eaves.

No one lives here anymore, but it is occupied by wandering corpses. Most people who watched "The Corpse in the Mountain Village" when they were children will think of the scene of the ruined village houses in the mountain village. The atmosphere full of weirdness and horror is chilling. When I was in my hometown,

, the old people always refuse to let

Children ran to play in dilapidated houses, worried that the fragile walls would hurt them. So they would say that there were ghosts in unoccupied dilapidated houses, and it would be dangerous for children to get in. So their friends stopped talking.

Those who dared to go in were spreading such horrific rumors.

When I was older, I was exposed to all kinds of ghost stories and movies, so I had a kind of fear in my heart towards places like old houses in mountain villages, so those childhood rumors really turned into shadows.

, and even affects us, making us feel timid when encountering such a place.

Nowadays, there are zombies wandering around in this decayed village. They have ferocious faces and stiff movements. Looking at them from a distance, some kind of terrifying feeling suddenly arises in their hearts... Hua Zi and the others began to talk.

Ghost stories, and a horrifying custom about Xiangxi... corpse exorcism...

It is said that there is a mysterious phenomenon in western Hunan, that is, some people die in a foreign land. In order to let his soul and body return to their hometown together, the family will hire a corpse driver to "drive" the body of the deceased back. Corpse driver

Possessing some extraordinary skills, he can reanimate corpses, stand in a row, raise his hands, and then be driven away like a zombie.

The corpse maker slowly rushed back to his hometown from a distant place. Someone had witnessed the scene of driving the corpses with his own eyes. The corpse driver wore a felt hat, hung a coil of silk, and held a whip in his hand. There was a row of corpses standing in front of him.

The bodies were stiff and their hands were held flat. They were all wearing white robes and their heads were covered with white cloths. They seemed to be alive. Driven by the corpse exorcists, they jumped forward bit by bit...

As she listened, Jiayi became a little scared, shrank her head and hid in my arms. I comforted her softly, it was okay, these are all stories made up by people.

"Haha, sister-in-law is scared! It's okay, Brother Tianlong is here. Even if the corpse collector comes here to drive the corpse, we should be afraid! Brother Tianlong will definitely protect you! Hahaha..."

Hua Zi is usually noisy, but now he started to make everyone happy again.

"Damn Huazi! You are not allowed to tell such scary stories anymore! Your sister-in-law has never seen a scary story before. It's so scary to ask you to tell such a story!"

Jiayi glanced at Huazi and complained. She had seen all kinds of zombies and was completely accustomed to their hideous appearance. But Jiayi never dared to imagine stories about ghosts and ghosts. After all, she had never seen them before.

The things I have seen are far more imaginative, even scary and weird than anything I have ever seen before!

Seeing that Jiayi was unhappy, Huazi hurriedly comforted her: "Oh, sister-in-law, don't be angry. I thought everyone was used to seeing zombies and wouldn't be afraid of horror stories! Well, I'm here to help my sister-in-law."

La! Hehe, but

You don’t have to be afraid. In fact, exorcism is not as scary as the legend says. I checked online and found that physical methods are used to exorcise corpses. That is, first stand the corpse up, stretch your arms flat, find two long bamboo poles, and use them along the way.

With your arms straight,

Fix the left and right arms on two bamboo poles. In this way, two bamboo poles can fix six or seven corpses. Then, clamp them from both sides, and the two corpse movers at the front and back will lift all the corpses like sedans.

The bamboo pole is elastic, and the legs of the corpse are stiff. It will fall to the ground with the steps of the corpse driver, and then be bounced up by the bamboo pole. Then put on a white robe to cover the bamboo pole and arms. From a distance, a row of

The corpse then walks like a zombie, which makes people’s hair stand on end.”

Huazi's explanation was full of science. It was completely unlike what a gangster-looking young man said. However, his explanation was completely reasonable. I had heard similar explanations in the past. Jiayi finally relaxed after listening to Huazi's addition.

After a while, this scientifically analyzed horror story is no longer so scary, but rather worthy of careful consideration.

"ah!!"

Jiayi suddenly turned pale with fright, her face turned pale, she pointed at the distant woods and screamed.

"Jiayi, what's wrong!!!"

"Look!! Over there!!!"

A group of people looked in the direction of Jiayi's finger in surprise. They saw that in the thick forest opposite, it was dark and blocked by leaves. The weather was very gloomy and the light was dim. They could faintly notice something moving!

"ah!!!"

Another person suddenly screamed. Everyone tensed their nerves, all the pores in their bodies opened, their eyes widened to their maximum size, and they stared at the woods ahead.

There are indeed some terrifying things moving deep in the deep forest. They are definitely not like zombies, because they stand in a row, wearing white robes and white scarves on their heads. They move in unison, their bodies are stiff, and their hands are in front of them.

Stretching, jumping slowly...

"Catch... chase the corpses...???"
Chapter completed!
