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

Chapter 163 Corpse Pit
With Zhou Xuanye's words, Song Qiaoming didn't dare to delay, and said: "Brother, I leave this to you." Then he ran away.While running, he looked back, and saw Zhou Xuanye holding Sigui Sword in his hand, slashing across with the sword, no matter how many hands were chopped off in unison.And the child squatting on the tree disappeared without a trace the moment the tree fell down.

At that time Song Qiaoming still felt very sorry, leaving others and ran away, which is not what a gentleman does.But after thinking about it again, Zhou Xuanye was hired by himself. Besides, his body is not directly proportional to him, and he can't help him at all if he stays.

After overcoming the regret in his heart, Song Qiaoming ran faster and fell twice from time to time.While the surrounding soil was tumbling, some insects such as earthworms in the soil were turned out. Sometimes when you fell down, you could see a fat earthworm wriggling.

After a while, Zhou Xuanye also caught up. He retreated while fighting, and his speed was a bit slow. He opened a distance from Song Qiaoming, but he never fell behind.Song Qiaoming turned his head and shouted: "Boss Zhou, you have to hold on." After shouting, when he turned his head again, he suddenly found the gray-faced child squatting on the big tree in front of him.

But at this moment, the child didn't smile, he opened his mouth wide suddenly, showing his fangs, and then a puff of gray smoke was sprayed from his mouth to Song Qiaoming's face.Song Qiaoming was sprayed in the face by the smoke, and felt dizzy for a moment, and fell to the ground in a moment, so dizzy that he didn't know anything.

Song Qiaoming didn't know exactly what happened during the period after he passed out, and he also speculated based on the situation at the scene after he woke up.

When he woke up, he was still lying there, not killed by that unknown little monster. The surrounding vegetation was overturned, and some smaller trees fell crookedly and leaned against the branches of the big tree.The vines that live on the trees hang down, and when the morning breeze blows, they sway with the wind, the moss is thick, and the morning fog is filled. If you ignore what happened in this place last night, then the surrounding scenery is really like a fairy tale world like feeling.

Song Qiaoming sat up clutching his aching head, his memory was a bit hazy for a while, and he remembered his experience last night after a while. He stood up abruptly and looked around.But the jungle is so vast, where can I see the shadows of other people.

Where's Boss Zhou?
After he passed out, what would Boss Zhou do?

Song Qiaoming immediately realized that something happened to Zhou Xuanye, because if nothing happened to Zhou Xuanye, he would not be allowed to faint in place.Then, he found traces of looking and fighting around and on the ground.Zhou Xuanye used a sword, and the marks left behind are very easy to distinguish. All kinds of straight and intersecting sword marks can be seen on the surrounding trees and soil surfaces.

In other words, after I passed out last night, there must have been a fierce fight here, and it was Zhou Xuanye who protected me!

Thinking of this, Song Qiaoming wiped the sweat from his forehead.

He didn't know where his equipment bag was. He only carried some personal equipment such as daggers and lighters. The most urgent thing to do was to find the rendezvous of the team or find Zhou Xuanye's whereabouts.He searched around, but to no avail.Fortunately, the equipment bag he lost was found. The only thing that made people feel dissatisfied was that the food packaging bags in the equipment bag were all chewed to pieces, as if some animal had bitten them.

After the animal bit it, it obviously found it unpalatable, so the food was still there, but it was mixed with a lot of saliva and the animal's bad breath, making it impossible to eat again.Song Qiaoming cursed and threw away the food, picked up the rest of the equipment, and continued to look for others.

Last night's hasty escape caused the entire team to disperse, and from time to time, he would blow his whistle twice.

In the process of searching, Song Qiaoming found a clue.The rolled soil on the ground is very soft, so the various footprints are very clear.He first followed Zhou Xuanye's footprints to find it, but in the end, the footprints turned into a trail of dragging.

That scene was like Zhou Xuanye was running, but finally fell to the ground and was dragged away by someone.

Song Qiaoming's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly followed the dragging trace.

This trace only spread about 50 meters, because the soil was not rolled over 50 meters away, so it was very strong and did not leave other traces.But obviously, people are being dragged in this direction.

Song Qiaoming started a long search. This process lasted for two days. These two days can be said to be the most miserable days he has ever lived.Before working with the team, Song Qiaoming’s comrades and brothers were taking care of him. At that time, he was alone, and he had nothing to eat. He didn’t know many wild fruits, and he didn’t dare to eat them casually. There are still wild fruits in the jungle Monkey, from time to time, will be surrounded by monkeys, and a lot of fruits will be thrown on his head.

Not to mention mosquitoes and leeches, as if they knew that few people were easy to bully, they came to sting him if there was anything to do, and spraying insect repellent didn't have much effect.The only thing I dare to eat is wild pineapple. This thing is easier to identify and is not easy to confuse with poisonous fruit. But if you eat too much, you will have diarrhea. When you take off your pants every day, what you pull out is yellow thick water, not to mention how disgusting it is. .

Finally, in the afternoon of the second day, he made a discovery, but this discovery, to Song Qiaoming, might as well not have been.

At that time, he walked into a swampy area. The characteristic of this kind of place is that there are few trees, but every surviving tree can grow very large.Secondly, the soil is wet, and there are shallow puddles everywhere. There are a lot of blood-sucking insects breeding in the pits, and there are many hidden swamps. If you don't pay attention, you will sink into it.

There are many swamp areas like this in Myitkyina. Before we encountered such places, we tried our best to bypass them, but this time Song Qiaoming had no way to spare, because the traces left along the way showed that Zhou Xuanye was probably taken. in this area.

Although Song Qiaoming was extremely careful, Jin was finally tricked.In front of him was clearly a moss-covered green land with shallow puddles, but who knew that when he stepped into it, it turned out to be a swampy pit.I don't know how deep the swamp pit is. Fortunately, when he fell down, he had quick eyesight and quick hands, and grabbed some vegetation on the bank, and then climbed out with difficulty by relying on his own strength.

The subsidence force of the swamp was too strong. In order to climb out, he had no choice but to give up his equipment bag. The backpack sank into the swamp, and during his climb out, some things in the swamp were brought out.But Song Qiaoming was busy climbing out at that time, so he didn't pay attention to what was in the swamp at all. When he climbed out completely and was panting on the edge of the swamp, he realized that the things brought out by his own movement were all of a kind. Human corpses!

It turned out that this was not a swamp pit, but a corpse pit!
Some things like human hands, human feet or human heads were brought out and floated on the surface. Those corpses did not rot, as if they had been fermented by the environment here. It was green and oily, and Song Qiaoming didn't feel the smell because he was wearing a gas mask.

At that time, his whole body was covered with a sticky liquid, which was brought out from the corpse pit, who knew what it was.

Song Qiaoming hurried to a diving pit not far away to clean it, and took off the gas mask. Only after taking it off did he realize that the surrounding area was really smelly, and he almost fainted from the smoke.

While washing the disgusting mucus on his body, Song Qiaoming looked at the corpse pit.

He was a soldier, so he was more courageous than ordinary people. In addition, he had encountered too many disgusting and weird things in the jungle recently, so he actually got used to it.After the initial horror and nausea faded, Song Qiaoming began to feel strange.

How could there be so many corpses in that pit?

Whose bodies are those?
Is it from the Expeditionary Force?
Could it be that the corpses of the expeditionary army buried by their companions did not rot because of the environment, but instead fermented?

After cleaning, Song Qiaoming stayed away from the corpse pit. His main purpose was to find Zhou Xuanye and other lost people. Although the corpse pit was weird, he didn't intend to spend time on it.After searching for another day, he was tortured by the swamp, and there were no wild pineapples growing around him. Finally, he found one, cut it open with a dagger, but the inside was already rotten, full of bugs crawling around. , disgusting as hell.

As a last resort, after the third day, Song Qiaoming gave up searching, because his food and physical strength did not allow him to stay in the wetland any longer.He started trying to find other people, and finally, he came across us.
