Qingyan adjusted the magnification of the telescope to the maximum and looked toward the southeast.

I saw that the door to the westernmost courtyard was open. The courtyard was fenced. That door was just a decoration. If a bad guy really lifted his foot, he could get in.

The magnification of the telescope is very high, and through the sparse gaps in the fence wall, one can clearly see brown traces on the ground, which should be dried blood.

No body was found in the yard. There were no vegetation in the small vegetable gardens, and the blood stains were obvious.

Qingyan turned her attention to the second courtyard. The situation was the same inside, but there were less blood stains. Maybe it was because of the small population.

She only looked at the three outermost yards. The further ones were blocked by houses, so she couldn't see them anymore. She could only see the roofs, not the inside.

You don’t really want to go into the village to check, do you? She was a little frightened. If there was really a plague virus, it would be impossible to cure it with the medical conditions here.

She had prepared some cold, fever and analgesic, anti-inflammatory medicines in her bag, but nothing else.

As a mythical beast, Chou Chou is not afraid. The key is that if it enters the yard, if it brings back the virus, the situation seems to be no different.

Now it seems that we have fallen into an endless loop again. The villagers here should have been killed, but if you want to find any clues, you can only go in.

While Qingyan was struggling, she heard a faint sound.

Is this...crying?

Are there any living people in that village?

Looking in the direction of the sound, according to the strength of the sound, it should be the third courtyard that I just saw.

The west side of the courtyard wall is made of adobe, which is only about half the height of a person. The fence gate is also closed, and only the northeastern half of the courtyard can be seen.

There was also blood on the ground inside, but it was less than the previous two.

The crying was vague and muffled, and it must have come from inside the room or somewhere closed.

The big tree they were sitting on was on the way to the fields outside the village, about two to three hundred meters away from the yard.

If the person was outside, it should be clearer. Could it be the child who was hidden?

Generally speaking, when danger is encountered on TV, the survivors left behind are children who have been hidden.

Like those anti-war dramas or ancient dramas where the enemy raided the village or the village was massacred by bandits, the adults would hide the children in cupboards or water tanks, and usually they would not be discovered.

Therefore, most of the survivors are children who are smaller and easier to hide.

Thinking of this, Qingyan quickly climbed down from the tree, and when Chou Chou saw her getting off the tree, he also jumped down.

He jumped into her arms and whispered: "Yanyan, I heard a sound in the village, did you hear it?"

Qingyan nodded, "I heard it, it was crying. It seems that there should be survivors in the village. Why don't we go and take a look?"

Since the survivors inside can still cry out, there should be no plague virus inside. If there was, they would probably have died long ago.

That's just the putrid smell emanating from the corpses. It's relatively dry here, so it should be better than the kind that encounters floods.

Although he said that, he still told Chou Chou: "You take out a set of clothes from the space, and we both wrap them up tightly. After we come out, take off the clothes and take them back to the space. Your space cannot accommodate anything." It's a thing, I guess the germs can't survive in it, maybe it can be killed directly."

Chou Chou: "..."

I always feel that this is not a good thing. It is true that living creatures in its space will die if it enters it, but it can enter space. Yanyan's words make it sound like it is more tenacious than those viruses...

She thought so, but her movements were not slow. Without waiting for Qingyan to urge her, she found two separate raincoats and handed them to Qingyan.

"This one is not breathable, so the effect should be better. Also, these gloves were put in when we ate roasted leg of lamb during the last Chinese New Year."

Because its claws are so small, it can’t be used at all. Also, it’s just a wash anyway. Wearing gloves is troublesome.
