death row

Chapter 37

"There are no absolutes in everything. In short, you can sail carefully." Gou Changqing took out a stack of photos from his bag and handed them to us: "These are the information of the rescued."

There were three people in total, one was Yinju, a 80-40-year-old man, a senior engineer of the Academy of Social Sciences.A fair-skinned and thin middle-aged man in his 20s named Zhao Hangsheng was a student of Yinju.There is also a girl in her twenties named Su Qingqing, who looks beautiful and generous, but her status is not at all close to the first two. She is a student of the fashion design department of a certain three universities, but she has already dropped out of school.

"Judging from the identities of the three missing persons, the horse team's concerns are not unreasonable. What is the connection between the senior engineer of the Academy of Social Sciences and a third-rate fashion design student? Why did they go to the Huangguo Forest together? And the address of the three people is also It's a thousand miles away, the girl is from a province in the southwest, and the two senior engineers are from the imperial capital."

I frowned and said: "Even if they are engaged in online dating, they don't have the conditions. What kind of opportunity made these three people meet and form a team?"

Gou Changqing said: "This truth has little to do with us. What I am worried about is whether there are zombies in the Huangguo Forest? What if there are?"

Little Six said without hesitation: "The cavalry team made it very clear before we set off. If we find that the situation has changed, we should retreat immediately and ensure our own safety. Since the boss has spoken, we don't have to die. What do you think?"

"It's true, the cavalry also cares about us, but we have to be clear that if we don't finish the six tasks, we can't be human for the rest of our lives, so we should try our best to complete every task, it's for ourselves." Gou Changqing One sentence pointed out the important point, and Little Six had nothing to say.

"Zombies are not terrible. Bullets are lethal to them. Compared with the ancestor of wrath, it is more than ten levels worse. We have all the equipment on us, so don't worry." Eighty-five shots.

Soon the helicopter landed on a threshing ground near a village at the foot of the mountain. After we got off the helicopter, we found that the local villagers did not show the slightest curiosity about the fully equipped soldiers. What should we do? We found the village party secretary , without waiting to speak, he said directly: "I know why you are here, and I will arrange for someone to take you up the mountain immediately."

"Village Chief, I want to know the specific situation of this mountain, can you introduce it?" Gou Changqing asked.

The Huangguo Forest is actually a big mountain. The name of the mountain is Huanglong Mountain. In summer, the yellow fruits all over the mountain look like the scales on the back of a yellow dragon, so it got this name.

"Huanglong Mountain has been a national forest park since the mid-90s. It has been guarded by special personnel. The forest area is dense with fruit trees and the natural scenery is beautiful. I am not a forest farm worker, so it is not easy to talk about it. After going up the mountain, you should be able to meet They, they can consult these people."

"I understand, I just want to know about the zombie infestation, have the villagers in the village been affected?"

"Hey, I have lived guarding the mountain for hundreds of years, and I have seen a lot of strange things. It's just that after reporting this time, you know that there are many things that are more evil than this, but we still live here."

"Like what?"

"When I was about sixteen or seventeen years old, I went up to the mountain to pick fruit with my playmates from the same village. When I passed a forest, I saw a skeleton with a head full of blood rushing out of the forest and running far away."

"I don't mean any offense, I just want to confirm that you don't think you are blind?" Gou Changqing added.

"I'm 100% not blind. Although the person who witnessed the skull with me passed away, his family members know about it. Not only him, but everyone in the village also knows about it. Just ask."

The four of us looked at each other, it seems that this place is a place where strange things happen frequently.Of course, the premise is that the village head did not make up ghost stories.

Gou Changqing continued to ask: "What about the last skull? What's going on?"

"I fell off the cliff directly." The village head said.After thinking about it, he added: "The place where the accident happened really has a name, it's called Xuantian Water Cave. It will be useless after a long time, you guys, don't go there rashly, I heard the old man say that there is an old snake demon living in the water cave in the mountain, which is dedicated to harming people. I didn't believe it when I was a child, but I knew it when I saw the skull that could run This story may not be made up."

"Have any soldiers entered Huanglong Mountain before us?"

"No, never." The village chief said with certainty.

We were about to enter the mountain, and the village party secretary asked a villager named Ma Wen to lead the way. This man was a drunkard. Yuan saw that he was afraid to avoid it, but he didn't mind, and said drunkenly: "I, I have wanted to be a soldier since I was a child, and it is my pride to be able to lead the way for you today."

Gou Changqing smiled slightly and said, "Thank you."

"Thank you JB. I like to make friends. I can serve the People's Liberation Army. My ancestors and ancestral graves are full of smoke." One sentence was rude and confusing, and we were confused when we heard it. We could only say yes with a smile.

Little Six came closer and said, "Brother, I heard that there was once a skull running around the mountain, do you think it's true or not?"

"JB is really, how can he run away even if he is a skeleton? I don't believe it." Marvin pouted his head and said, with the standard appearance of a two-hundred-five youth.

"So you think it's peaceful in this mountain?"

"I think the mountains are peaceful. I often go to the mountains to pick fruits. I have never seen any strange things. A few days ago, people in the village said that a zombie came out to attack people. I didn't believe it. I read the newspaper and found out it was true. "

"So you've never seen anything strange in the mountains?"

"No, no one in the village visits the mountain as many times as I do. Is there a strange thing that I can still see you once?" Ma Wen talked about everything when he got excited. He told us that he had been drinking all year round and had already lost the ability to work. Because the family is poor and no woman is willing to marry him, he often goes to the mountains to pick yellow fruits, and stores the fruits in the cellar in winter. Four Seasons Marvin lives on Huangguo.

This buddy has lived with wild fruits as his staple food for decades, and it is probably fortunate that he did so, otherwise his stomach would not be able to digest protein and meat. In the past, it was only heard that monks ate wild fruits and drank dew for their cultivation. This buddy The will is also strong enough, but the monk is to study the Dharma, he would rather die of malnutrition than create food with his hands.

This is really lazy, but Ma Wen is also very distressed. Although he seems to be drinking too much and drunk all day long, he still can't understand why the people in the village reject him so much, and every family regards him as a thief. In fact, he has never stolen other people's house in these years, nor has he provoked anyone, but the people in the village just ignore him, and the bad habit of drinking is also caused by the depression in his heart.

In fact, his grandfather was a very influential village party secretary in the village back then, but since his grandfather died, everyone in his family has been despised by the villagers, and they were almost kicked out of the village several times. Mercy, since his father's generation, he has gone out to beg for food.

The current Ma Wen is just helping the village committee with chores. Huanglong Village was originally a poor village. His income can be imagined. The extremely limited banknotes have been completely turned into alcohol. clean.

It's sad to think about him, but we really don't have any money, otherwise we really want to help him, Gou Changqing said: "Since the words are not speculative, why don't you leave?"

"It's easy to say but it's hard to make this decision. My family's ancestors have lived in Huanglong Village for generations. If I slap my ass and leave, my ancestral graves will be pulled out. Besides, if I stay in the village, I have a drink, and I can do it when I go out." Well?"

Some people are not dead but are similar to the walking dead. Marvin is such a person. Fundamentally speaking, he is not even as good as us death row prisoners. At least we are worth living, but he is just a piece of trash.
