I held my breath... This blood must not be Nier's!
Nier is still so young! Aunt Li is still protecting the villagers!
It shouldn't be so unfair!
I was so anxious that tears flowed out. I stretched my neck to see Nier who was crying in front of Mr. Chen.
The second uncle took a step forward, his chest heaved violently, and his tone became more serious: "Old blind Chen! Where is Li Nier!!"
I watched nervously, and the thick stench in the room made me feel a little dazed.
Blind Chen seemed to be very slow. He reacted for a while, then stiffly turned his head to look at his arms. Then, he held Li Nier with both hands and turned around stiffly...
The second uncle and I were both a little stunned. I looked at the second uncle, and his expression seemed to be hard to explain.
But I breathed a sigh of relief.
Because Mr. Chen was holding the intact Ni'er in one arm, and a large piece of flesh was bitten off his other hand, and the blood inside was dripping into Ni'er's mouth, which was crying softly.
...The blood on the kang is from Mr. Chen?
Why did he feed Li Nier his own blood?!
It's hard for me not to think about something even scarier.
At this time, the second uncle frowned and asked: "Are you feeding her blood?"
Blind Chen reacted for a while, then slowly lowered his head to look at Nier's fleshy little face stained with blood. The remaining eye was actually a little kind.
It seemed like he really wouldn't hurt Nier, and I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
When Mr. Chen talks nonsense, it's like the DVD player in Fang Zhongyu's house is jammed, but I'm not that afraid of him anymore.
The second uncle was silent and stretched out his hand: "Give me Ni'er."
Mr. Chen suddenly turned around and continued playing with his back to us: "She... is me... is my... daughter..."
"If your blood can't feed Ni'er, give it to me." The second uncle's tone softened.
Old Blind Chen started to shake his head again, and his neck made a cracking sound every time he shook his head.
The second uncle walked over quietly, stood by the kang and said, "If you keep Ni'er by your side, she will be killed even if she doesn't starve to death. Give me your daughter, and I can still protect her."
"Kill...death..." Mr. Chen turned his head again when he heard the words. His head and back were almost 180 degrees, which made me choke in my chest and almost stop breathing.
"You can't...kill...my daughter..." Chen Laoban said as he stretched out his two stiff arms and handed Ni'er to his second uncle.
Don’t poke your second uncle with his long nails!
The second uncle carefully took Li Nier, took a few steps back, and bowed to Mr. Chen: "Thank you."
Old Blind Chen was still looking at Ni'er blankly, and suddenly said: "Wu..."
"Wu? You want to say that Mrs. Wu is the wife Li Long found for you?"
"Yes...don't...let her...get close to...Nier..."
I grabbed my second uncle's clothes and asked dryly: "Second uncle, is it Mrs. Wu who made him become like this?"
The second uncle's eyebrows were almost twisted into knots. After listening to my words, he looked at Old Blind Chen again.
Old Blind Chen nodded stiffly and slowly: "Yes... she is... the corpse mother... you go quickly..."
"What? Corpse mother!" the second uncle exclaimed.
"What the hell is a corpse mother..." I haven't even finished speaking.
The second uncle suddenly carried Lulu on his shoulders, held Nier in his arms, held me with one hand, and walked out of the door.
I felt the cold wind blowing from the side of my face with an expressionless face, and didn't react for a moment.
It wasn't until my second uncle whipped him down and the donkey roared several times and flew away that I suddenly reacted.
"Second uncle, why are you running away? Doesn't Mr. Chen mean no harm?" I held Nier and looked at her chubby little face with distress. I gently wiped the blood off her face and used my uncle's jacket.
Cover her tightly.
Nier's mental state is very bad now, her eyes are squinting all the time, and her crying is weak.
When I looked up, I saw that the back of my uncle's head was beginning to sweat, and the whip he was using was getting harder and harder.
"The second uncle is not afraid of Old Blind Chen, but Old Mrs. Wu!"
"ah?"
"Old Mrs. Wu is the corpse mother. The corpse mother is different from ordinary zombies. She is not a zombie in the traditional sense."
"Then, is she very powerful?"
The second uncle shook his head again: "It's not the corpse mother who's powerful, it's her children."
"child?"
"Um."
My second uncle told me from beginning to end what zombies were all about.
"Zombies are dead people who have been transformed by Yin Qi in the Yin Gathering Land all year round. There are many types of zombies. The one we see now is Mao Zombie, a kind of zombie that is not too powerful but not simple either.
Only one corpse mother can appear out of 10,000 zombies. The appearance of the corpse mother is very unnatural. The condition required for its formation is not Yin Qi, but evil Qi, and Yin Qi cannot get close to it.
But the Corpse Mother itself is not something to be afraid of, as the Corpse Mother can no longer grow into the next level of zombie."
"Then why are you still afraid?"
"Because the appearance of the Corpse Mother brings with it the instinct of race."
"What is instinct, uncle?"
"Proliferate."
"..."
"When the corpse mother comes out of the mountain, she must find a corpse father, and then take someone close to her body, but she still retains something popular, such as Aunt Xiao's money.
When the Corpse Mother puts the pregnancy beads and the money together with the Corpse Father, Aunt Xiao will become the Corpse Mother's 'child' after being bitten by the Corpse Mother.
Although the zombie mother will always be a zombie, her children will be born as zombies, grow up rapidly, and only obey the orders of the corpse mother.
So the corpse mother is not scary, but her children are scary, and we don’t know how many children she has now.”
After my second uncle said this, a fallen leaf blew past my eyes, and I felt all the blood in my body flow backwards.
The hand holding Nier couldn't stop shaking.
Why... why are there such terrible things in the world... Aunt Li said that several nearby villages have gone to follow the ceremony. Does that mean that if this matter is not dealt with, won't everything around my house become a zombie nest?
Already?
If so many zombies suddenly appeared... wouldn't the world be in chaos!!!
"Second uncle!" I grabbed my arm with cold hands, only to find that my uncle's arm was even colder.
The determination in my uncle's eyes stunned me for a moment.
The second uncle touched my head and said with a smile: "Girl Yun, although the second uncle has been expelled from the Taoist sect now, his Taoist heart will always remain. It is his duty to support justice and eliminate evil. The second uncle cannot ignore death. This matter is dangerous. Wait.
Second uncle will find someone to take you back to Lotus City, and then call Brother Han and ask him to help take care of you. If second uncle can't go back..."
"Second uncle!" I used all my strength and threw my head on his belly, "If I don't leave, woo woo, I will only have you and Lulu left. If I don't leave, I won't leave, woo woo."
The second uncle was almost knocked off the donkey cart by me. He grabbed the donkey's tail with an ouch and steadied himself. However, this grip made the donkey hurt, and the donkey began to bray again.
Then Lulu was woken up by the donkey's shouting. She looked at the endless sky in confusion. She sat up straight and said, "I just heard it! Second uncle! I won't leave either. After my parents are gone, you will be my father."
