Chapter 1,769 A surprise meeting with an old friend
Perhaps because he told the biggest secret in his heart, Gong Wu slowly regained his senses.
Especially after seeing the personal marks on her wrist, I couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
"Little sister, me"
"It's okay, you were just too excited just now. Fifth brother, can you tell me what happened now?"
The smell of the medicinal oil was slightly pungent, which made Gong Wu's mind clearer.
But the situation at that time was so unbelievable that even when he thought about it now, he repeatedly asked himself whether he was dazzled at that time.
He felt so uncomfortable that he immediately poured out what he had seen.
"That day, I took the errand and went to find the manipulators behind the corpse puppets. However, when I sneaked behind the corpse puppets, I saw a strange scene that I will never forget."
At that time, because of the cover of the medicine, their group did not suffer any trouble.
At the beginning, they were not sure.
Although there were a lot of corpse puppets, the soldiers were very fast, but they didn't know how long the medicine could keep people alive, so they couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
Relying on his superb martial arts skills, Gong Wu asked the remaining people to form teams in two while investigating the situation from the side.
But he went deep alone, went directly to the rear to see what the situation was like, and agreed to meet at the separate place after a stick of incense.
Everything went smoothly at first, but the further he walked behind the corpse puppet, the weirder he felt.
As he was getting closer, he suddenly heard the sound of someone talking.
This shocked Gong Wu.
It was already very strange for him to know that he was surrounded by corpses that could move.
I suddenly heard people talking. Is it possible that corpses could come back to life?
Fortunately, he was quite courageous. He was only startled and quickly regained his composure.
It seemed that he had directly detected the enemy camp.
Since he guessed that the enemy was ahead, he couldn't help but be extremely cautious.
Taking advantage of his lightness skills, he quietly approached.
There were quite a few people behind the corpse puppet group.
They were a little far away, sitting around the fire, and their voices were vague and could not be heard clearly.
Gong Wu was afraid of arousing the enemy, so he first explored the surroundings before finding out the details of the other party.
This investigation revealed to him the secret of the corpse puppet group.
There are many strange animals around the group of corpse puppets.
These animals are either cats with shiny black fur, dogs with grinning teeth, or even snakes as thick as a wrist.
However, the strange thing is that they are different from ordinary animals.< br>
He doesn't bark when he sees people, and he doesn't care at all.
Gong Wu felt strange, so he took the time to observe.
Only then did I see that there was something strange about these animals.
After approaching cautiously, he discovered that the bodies of these animals were as skinny as firewood.
But the hair or scales on the body are extremely prosperous.
He stared at the dog closest to him.
But I saw that the dog's eyes were very dim, and there was an unknown sound coming from its throat.
Having raised several dogs as a child, he immediately realized that this dog must be suffering from great pain.
But just looking at its fur, it's shiny and smooth, so there's no problem at all.
Then, out of curiosity, he picked up a branch and quietly poked it into the dog's fur.
With a sound of "Woof——", Gong Wu thought he had been discovered, so he threw down the branch and hid himself in the darkness.
In addition to the chaotic footsteps of zombies around, even the sounds in the distance were much fainter.
The dog barked once and then stopped.
When Gong Wu saw that no one was coming, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
I couldn't help but recall the time I poked him with a branch.
It seems that there are some bumps and bumps on this dog's body.
Afraid of causing the dog to bark again, Gong Si turned around and looked around, and found a longer and thinner stick.
Then, he quietly came to the dog's side. This time, he did not poke, but gently pressed down a piece of hair on the dog's back.
What he saw made him feel sick all of a sudden.
I saw that the shiny fur was full of little bumps and dots.
That thing was densely packed on the dog's body. I'm afraid it was the thing he touched just now that made the dog bark.
Could it be that the reason why this dog became like this is all because of this thing?
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw the dog and suddenly howled.
Then those densely packed black spots crawled down its back, leaving a piece of its body that was already a mess of flesh and blood.
But this is not just fun. As soon as those black spots disappear, new ones will appear.
After seeing this scene, Gong Wu vaguely guessed.
This poor dog may have something to do with those corpse puppets.
Gong Wu was a straightforward person, but he also resented what he had done to the people of Immortal City.
In order to free the dog as soon as possible, he cut it with a knife
, resulting in the dog’s life.
Unexpectedly, when the knife came down, not only the poor dog fell, but also many corpses in the crowd.
Only then did he realize that these animals were actually the key to controlling the corpse puppets!
Gong Wu worked non-stop, following the corpses to find those strange animals, and then helped them get real relief.
When everything was almost cleared, Gong Wu came to the place where he heard the human voice again.
He wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to get rid of these people too...??.
Obviously, those people were also aware of the situation of the corpse puppets, and they all got up and came out to check.
At this moment, Gong Wu saw a scene that shocked him inexplicably.
"When my father passed away, even though I was young, there were portraits of him and my mother in my house. I remember when I was a child, when I was tired from practicing martial arts or being taught a lesson by my brothers, I would look at my father and follow him.
I fell asleep with my mother's portrait, so I recognized him at a glance, that person was my father!"
Mentioning that scene, the fifth brother was still so excited that he couldn't control himself.
He was shaking all over, as if he was experiencing an electric shock.
Lin Mengya was afraid that it would be bad if his emotions were too intense, so she immediately found a pill that could make people clear their heads and fed it into his mouth.
Gong Wu took out several big breaths and then continued to talk with difficulty.
Under such circumstances, one can imagine how the fifth brother felt when he saw his father who had passed away many years ago.
But he also knew that this matter was too incredible. Maybe it just happened to look similar?
He stared closely at the man, watching him run to the animals he had killed, and after checking them one by one, he joined his companions.
But what he didn't expect was that he saw his uncle and second uncle!
The portraits of the eldest uncle and the second uncle are hung in the ancestral hall.
In order to prevent future generations from forgetting the kindness of their parents, my great-grandfather would have the five of them kneel in the ancestral hall on every first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, listen to the teachings, and offer incense and prayers to their parents.
Because the portraits of the eldest uncle and the second uncle were painted by one of the most skilled painters in the Gong family, they looked like real people.
Therefore, he kept it firmly in his mind.
Now, it is a coincidence that the father appears, but what about the uncle and the second uncle? Is it also a coincidence?
Gong Wu was so flustered that he even felt that he had been deceived by his own eyes.
He bit his tongue hard, thinking that he had been drugged or something.
But when the pain shot straight to the sky and his mouth was filled with the smell of blood, he had to admit that everything in front of him was real!
Could it be that uncle and the others are still alive? ?
But since they are alive, why don't they go home?
Why did they appear here, and what is their relationship with those corpse puppets?
Countless problems, like tough withered vines, entangled him in circles, making it impossible for him to break free.
But just when he couldn't bear it any longer and wanted to rush out to question him, he felt blood boiling in his chest, a burst of shortness of breath, and then he fainted.
After that, those people waited for him for a long time but did not come. They were afraid that he would be in trouble, so they came to look for him.
Unexpectedly, one of them found that he had fainted in a hidden corner.
After he woke up, he ignored his family's advice and insisted on going back to the west city gate, just to make sure that what he saw was true or false.
It's a pity that not only the people didn't see it, but the animals he got rid of also disappeared.
I think it must have been dealt with by someone else.
"Little sister, tell me, is what I saw true?"
Gong Wu pulled his hair in pain.
He has never experienced such pain in his entire life.
He obviously saw it with his own eyes, but everything seemed like a dream.
Otherwise, how can one explain the scene where a relative who should have passed away reappears alive in front of one's eyes?
But he was also confused and felt that those people should not be his closest relatives.
But there is no such coincidence in the world. The three of them are so similar, even their clothes are very similar.
This incident almost became his nightmare. He endured such a hard day, but it was very hard.
He didn't know who else to tell besides his little sister.
After he said it, he became even more confused.
Covering his face, Gong Wu's eyes turned red.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu listened quietly the whole time and rarely interrupted.
Long Tianyu squeezed her hand gently, and Lin Mengya squeezed him back.
That is the tacit understanding between them, which can be understood without the need for words.
"Let me see how your physical condition is first."
"Little sister, you also think I'm being blinded, right?"
Gong Wu stared at him with a somewhat disappointed expression.
Lin Mengya shook her head gently and pulled his hand over.
"I just thought, how could you, a grown man, faint when you get emotional? Maybe it's because of the medicine."
Hearing what she said, Gong Wu also relaxed a little.
After letting the little sister feel her pulse and checking other situations, she finally calmed down.
