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

Chapter 48
At the moment, Qiu Huangxi is still in a coma, and the weather in the desert is hot and changeable, which is not suitable for the recovery of the injury. According to Qiu Huangxi's current situation, she must go to the city for treatment as soon as possible.

Without further ado, Tan Ren waved his hand, pointed to Han Xu's special camel, and said to me: "Your injury also needs treatment. This camel is for you, and you take her back."

To be honest, I finally came out to do a job with my boss. I wanted to learn more, so it was a pity to go back like this, but human life is important after all, so I could only endure this regret, nodded, and decided to take Qiu Huangxi returns.

It's already past three o'clock in the afternoon. We didn't have a good rest yesterday, and after such a toss, we were exhausted, so we decided to take a rest for the night.Han Zitong and others joined Tan Ren at noon, after all, they had to rest more than us, so Han Zitong signaled us to rest first, and she and Wang Zehai took turns guarding.The vegetation in this oasis is dense, and it is inevitable that there will be insects and snakes. Naturally, it is safer to guard it.

After I relaxed, I fell into a dark sleep and forgot to tell Tan Ren and others about the black snake.

There are so many black snakes, and they are heading in one direction in groups. In fact, this situation is very strange.When I first encountered those snakes, I still wanted to remember to mention it to Tan Ren and be more careful.As a result, too many things happened in this half day, and I was exhausted, so I just fell asleep.

This sleep left a huge regret in my life.

I fell into a deep sleep and was woken up by a loud noise.This movement included Han Zitong's yelling and Tan Ren's shouting, and finally there was a bang. I heard it was the sound of a sword being unsheathed.

These sounds surprised me from my sleep.

Because the gathering place was too weird, it was inevitable that there would be some accidents. We did not spend the night in the room there, but found a dry place near the water and pitched a tent to rest.When he opened his eyes at this moment, he saw the dark top of the tent.

it's getting dark.

The light from camp lanterns came in from outside.

What happened?

I got out of my sleeping bag immediately, the curtains of the tent were not closed, because it was a two-person tent, and Han Xu fell asleep next to me.Han Zitong is a brother-in-law, and she couldn't help but want to come in to see her brother when she was sleeping, which made me speechless.

The zipper pulled here must have been forgotten by Han Zitong.

This movement woke up Han Xu too. He yawned and stretched, and immediately rubbed his eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"

I said, "I don't know." As I said that, I quickly got out of the tent, ready to see what was going on.

However, after leaving the tent, I only watched Wang Zehai.

Wang Zehai was holding the camp lantern high in his hand, stretched his neck and turned his back to me, obviously looking at something, other than that, he didn't see anyone else.I glanced at the other two tents and found that the zippers were all unzipped, and looking in through the opening, there was no one inside.

Where did Zhou Xuanye and Tan Ren go?

No, Han Zitong is gone too!

At this time.Han Xu also crawled out, and opened his mouth to look for his sister.As soon as he opened his mouth, Wang Zehai turned around with a very puzzled look on his face, and asked us, "Do you know what happened?"

I said in my heart, I just came out and you don’t even know, how do I know?

So he shook his head and asked him, "Where are the rest?" Wang Zehai pointed to the dark place ahead where the camp lights couldn't reach, and said, "I don't know, I just heard Miss Han call out, and then Boss Tan Then he got up. After chasing him out, he saw only human figures, and they all ran this way." Looking in the direction of his finger, the plants on the ground really had traces of being trampled.

At this moment, it was pitch black all around, and under the night wind, the camp lantern in his hand swayed, the dim light flickered, the surrounding lights were mottled, and the shadows of people and trees were intertwined, forming all kinds of weird images.

At this moment, there are only three of us left in the camp, and I don’t know what happened to Ben. Thinking of Han Zitong’s loud cry and the sound of Zhou Xuanye’s sword unsheathing, I realized that there must be an accident, and this accident must have happened. Not a good thing.

Do I want to follow up and have a look?
But I am unarmed, with injuries on my body, and I can't walk easily. If there is any danger, I will go there not to help, and maybe it will delay my legs.

Take another look at Wang Zehai next to him. He is obese and feasts all year round. His skills are not as good as mine, and he is also a hindrance.As for Han Xu... Hehe, he can completely forget about it.Thinking of this, I suddenly thought of Qiu Huangxi who had passed out.It's so late, Qiu Huangxi doesn't know if she has woken up.

She slept in Han Zitong's tent, and the zipper of the tent was also unzipped at the moment. I looked into the tent, and my heart skipped a beat.

There is no one inside.

In fact, when I came out just now, I found that the two tents were empty.It's just that when people just woke up, their brains didn't react so quickly. For a while, I only thought of Han Zitong's loud cry, so I forgot Qiu Huangxi.

Only now did I realize that even she had disappeared.

Seeing that I was staring at the tent, Wang Zehai took a look at it too. After seeing it, he suddenly gasped and said, "Why is this tent a little crooked?" I just looked into the tent and didn't pay much attention to the appearance. After such a reminder from him, he immediately realized that the tent was really crooked.

However, it is not obvious that the part near the ground is crooked. What is obvious is that the top on the left side has sunk a large piece. It seems that the bracket is bent, as if it has been hit by some heavy object.

Wang Zehai and I came to the edge of the tent at the same time, wanting to see how the tent's 'injury' came about, and we were shocked when we saw it, and there was a big mark around the tent.The mark was very strange, long and thick, as if some large snake had crawled over it.

I immediately thought of the group of black snakes I saw during the day.

Could it be that we were attacked by a herd of snakes?

No, those snakes are very small, not as big as this one.

Besides, how could a snake take the initiative to attack people?
As I thought about it, I unconsciously said it.Wang Zehai rubbed his hands when he heard this, and said: "Of course this little snake can't, but look at the trace, if it is a snake, it must be a big boa constrictor. This boa constrictor is hungry, so maybe it came to our place looking for it." Find something to eat."

I couldn't help but glanced at Wang Zehai and said, "It makes sense."

Wang Zehai was quite nervous, and said, "Shall we follow and have a look?"

I looked at the idiot Han Xu, and said, "I'll go and have a look, you watch him here." Although it's hard for me to move, I was still worried and wanted to see what happened.

However, before we could take any action, a dim yellow halo suddenly appeared in the darkness in front of us. In the halo, three figures were approaching us.

Although they couldn't see their appearance clearly, judging from their stature, it was obvious that they were the three of them.

come back so soon?
I saw that their pace was not fast, and they didn't seem to be in any danger, so I couldn't help but quickly walked up to them.However, as soon as I got close to these three people, I felt an unusual atmosphere.

heavy.

very heavy.

Their expressions are exactly the same dignified.Tan Ren had a lukewarm expression most of the time, but now his brows were knotted, showing no sign of relaxation.Zhou Xuanye is usually very gentle and loves to smile, but now, the corners of his long raised mouth are hanging down, and his dignified expression is something I have never seen before.

Han Zitong was fine, she still had a blank face, and because of facial nerve problems, she couldn't make any other expressions even if she wanted to.At this moment, although there was no change on her face, I could see that her hanging right hand was trembling, and her fingers were curling up and down, as if she wanted to grab something.

Except for the three of them, I didn't see Qiu Huangxi.

Out of intuition, I realized something might have happened to Qiu Huangxi, and my heart sank for a moment, and I hurriedly said, "Where is Qiu Huangxi? What happened?" Han Zitong stared at me, his lips moved, He seemed to want to say something, but in the end he pursed his lips, lowered his head, and walked around me to the camp without saying a word.

Tan Ren didn't answer me directly, but said in a deep voice, "We'll talk about it when we go back to the camp."

Zhou Xuanye held the treasure of the Sanzi Temple in his hand, and he didn't say much this time. The two headed towards the camp, and I could only follow behind.

As usual, Han Xu began to pester Han Zitong, but this time, Han Zitong was not so patient, and said impatiently, "Xiaoxu, if you keep arguing, I will ignore you." Probably Han Zitong seldom said such words, so Han Xu flattened Flat mouth, showing the appearance of crying.

Even the least worried person in this team now has a bitter face. Without his noisy and noisy, the whole camp is eerily quiet.

Wang Zehai looked at Tan Ren and the others, then at me, and gave me a wink, apparently asking me what was going on, so I shook my head.Wang Zehai showed a thoughtful look, and took the lead to break the silence: "Boss Tan, don't frown, there is still something to be solved, what are you guys..." He pointed to the slightly crooked tent.

After all, it is the boss, Tan Ren still gave him face, and said: "Pack up our things, we evacuated the oasis overnight, and talked as we walked."

I looked at Solder's watch, which showed it was eleven o'clock at night.

It seems that I slept for nearly seven hours in one breath, and Han Zitong heard Tan Ren's words and started packing without saying a word, Wang Zehai didn't say much, just touched his nose and followed suit.

But I can't, I stopped Tan Ren, feeling a little angry.To be precise, this anger is not real anger, but the ominous guess in my heart, which makes me uncertain.I grabbed Tan Ren and said, "Speak clearly! Why did you leave overnight? Where is Qiu Huangxi? What happened to her! Let's just leave like this, and leave her alone!"
