"Unlucky, why do we always encounter these things wherever we go?" Heizi turned sideways and spat.
"Because that's what we deal with." I smiled helplessly.
"Ouch..." A low roar came.
If Wei Yucheng hadn't told me in advance that there was corpse energy, I would have thought it was some wild beast in the mountains.
Kuroko and I turned on our headlights at the same time, and two dazzling beams of light illuminated the front.
Seven or eight walking corpses in ragged clothes and spitting out black gas appeared within our sight.
But now that they were illuminated by a strong light, these zombies froze in place, like machines that suddenly turned off the switch.
Heizi and I didn't dare to move rashly, because under the light, the black energy in the mouths of the zombies in front of us was even more conspicuous.
Breathing black energy directly from the mouth is a serious evil spirit. If you are caught and bitten by these things, I am afraid that the master will not be able to save him while he is alive.
Heizi and I looked at each other and were thinking about how to solve the situation at hand, when suddenly something seemed to move on the neck of one of the zombies.
The walking corpse that was originally stunned suddenly moved, and if it moved, its whole body would move. With one move, the whole body moved.
"Ouch..." The corpses roared together and rushed towards us with their teeth and claws bared.
This roar shocked the wolves in the valley and immediately silenced them.
"But don't let them touch me." I said and took a few steps back.
"Oh my god, what is this thing? It doesn't look like a walking corpse." Heizi said and followed me back quickly, with Wei Yucheng and Gu Rou protecting us.
As the zombies approached, I finally saw what was around their necks.
The thing was under the skin, like a raised blood vessel, more like a squirming worm.
"It's Gu, behead him." I shouted and rushed over with my sword.
When I started, Wei Yucheng was faster than me. This guy was afraid that I would make some mistake.
"Be careful not to inhale corpse breath." I said, raising my hand to block the head of a Gu corpse that was chopped off with a sword from its mouth and nose.
Sure enough, a burst of black energy mixed with black blood spurted out, and I quickly kicked the ground hard and jumped to the side.
Wei Yucheng had also chopped down two Gu corpses, and for a moment, the surrounding area was filled with black energy and blood.
"Back off, back off." I quickly turned around and grabbed Heizi who was about to step forward to kill the Gu corpse.
"Huh..." Suddenly a gust of wind blew up behind us, making our clothes crackle.
The clouds of black air floating in front of him were instantly blown away, and the remaining Gu corpses quickly rushed out through the black mist.
"Good job, keep going." I turned my head and gave a thumbs up to Gu Rou.
Originally, I thought that since Gu Rou had no weapons, she would have to watch this battle from the side, but I didn’t expect that she still had this ability.
Gu Rou followed us to cover, and the three of us formed a triangle formation and fought our way through.
Heizi was almost caught by the Gu corpse. In anger, the boy slashed his sword horizontally and cut the Gu corpse in half.
When I heard the sound, I turned around and seemed to see a white thing falling out of the Gu corpse's belly.
But right now, we don’t care to study these things. We don’t dare to fight. Basically, we just pick up the sword and kill the enemy with one move.
"Hurry, bring fire, burn it, don't let the Gu insects escape." Looking at the Gu corpses scattered on the ground, I became even more nervous.
"I'll do it." Wei Yucheng said and threw the corpses into a pile, one in each hand and by his feet.
Gu Rou raised her hand and waved, another gust of wind blew by, and the heads of the Gu corpses also rolled to the side of the corpses.
Heizi also quickly opened his own kettle and poured the liquor inside. I thrust my sword into the bonfire and flew away a piece of burning firewood.
"Boom..." The pile of corpses immediately burst into flames.
"Add more wood, add more wood..." Heizi turned to greet Gu Rou. The two of them picked up the dead wood on the ground and threw it towards the corpse.
"No need." I raised my hand to stop Heizi.
As soon as I finished speaking, the fire that seemed to be extinguished suddenly started to burn, and it burned more and more intensely, as if someone poured gasoline on the fire.
"What's going on?" Heizi was still holding a dead wood in his hand, looking at the burning corpse with wide eyes.
"Corpse oil." I smiled and turned my head.
"Cio, you look so scary." Heizi said and walked away.
"It's a bit scary when you smile like that under the firelight." Wei Yucheng looked at me and nodded.
"How come there are walking corpses in this deep mountain forest? Did you just say it was Gu? What do you mean?" Heizi walked over again.
"Someone must have used poison to control the corpse. This is a poison corpse." I said and looked around.
"What are you looking for?" Heizi looked at me puzzled.
"I thought I saw a white thing just now." I said and continued to look down.
"Here, it fell out of the stomach of the Gu corpse that I chopped into two pieces." Heizi raised his sword and pointed. The thing was now on a rock not far away.
"What is it?" Heizi followed me and moved forward cautiously.
"I just want to know what it is." I said, bending down to pick up a relatively long piece of dead wood, and poked at the thing.
"It doesn't look like a living thing." Heizi observed carefully.
"Why does it feel like a plastic bag to me?" I turned to look at Heizi.
"Use more force." Heizi said and made two gestures.
"Be careful." I raised my hand to cover my mouth and nose, and Heizi immediately followed suit.
With a strong force on my hand, I directly broke the white thing.
Sure enough, it was a plastic bag, and all that fell out was white powder.
"Gu corpse transports poison?" Heizi looked at me in shock.
"No wonder the Gu corpse appears here." I frowned and threw away the dead wood in my hand.
"Isn't the poison control person nearby?" Heizi nervously pulled out his gun and kept gesturing at the darkness around him.
"No, poison control is different from curse control. The distance between poison control is very far, but we still have to be careful. After all, we killed other people's poisonous insects." I don't need to explain, Heizi naturally understands what it means.
"I'm a little worried about Uncle Qiu's men now. I probably know what case they are investigating." Heizi frowned and looked at me.
"It's just a rough idea. Even fools know it." I said and took out the satellite phone.
"If you hit him now, what do you say?" Heizi raised his hand to stop me.
"That's right. I didn't find anything along the way. He should still be alive." I slowly put down the phone.
In fact, this is just our expectation. If Qiu Sheng's men really encounter this kind of Gu corpse, it will definitely be a disaster.
However, based on the location Qiu Sheng gave us, and considering the time they lost contact and the time we encountered the walking corpses, Qiu Sheng's two men should not have encountered these zombies.
"What's going on with this Gu control? Tell me." Heizi became interested again.
I looked at our grilled fish. It was stained with a lot of black blood from the corpses of Gu. The fish was definitely inedible.
I took out the dry food in my bag and sat aside, and Heizi quickly sat over.
"The person who raises the voodoo will walk the route he wants to take with the voodoo worm, and then find something to plant the voodoo on, and the voodoo worm will naturally follow the route." After I finished speaking, I took a bite of the compressed biscuit.
"What will happen if the Gu insect gets into me?" Heizi asked nervously.
"I don't know. I might get into your head and turn you into a walking zombie, or I might control you to get up in the middle of the night and kill me." After I finished speaking, I looked up at the still burning Gu corpse.
"Forget it then..." Heizi said and put away the small bottle in his hand.
"You don't want to catch one and study it, do you? Do you really don't know how to write the word "death"?" I scolded directly.
"Aren't you just curious? I've only heard of Gu magic before, but this is the first time I've seen it." Heizi smiled bitterly.
"Master told me that these things are very evil, and the person who casts the poison is not prepared to remove the poison at all. It is best to stay away from them if you encounter them." I said seriously.
"Will those things escape without being burned to death..." Hearing what I said, Heizi stood up in fright and kept checking everywhere on his body.
"The flesh body is their carrier, and now it is burned by fire. The Gu insects cannot survive." I said firmly, but I also stood up and turned on the headlight to check the surrounding ground.
"Please help me take a look, are there any holes in my body or something?" Heizi ignored me and asked Gu Rou to check his back.
"Ms. sir, you're okay, I've been watching you." Gu Rou covered her mouth and smiled.
"Does this Gu insect have any nemesis? I don't feel at ease all over. How will I spend my evening tonight?" Heizi still looked at me with a sad face.
"Most of them are afraid of water. Let's retreat to the other side of the stream." Heizi said this, and I felt uneasy. After all, it was my first time to see this Gu technique.
"Hurry up, I'll take a shower in the water." Heizi picked up his bag and waded into the water and ran over.
Before we could catch up, Heizi had already lost his bag and started taking off his clothes to get into the water.
"Mr.." Wei Yucheng and I had nothing to do with each other, but Gu Rou shyly turned her head away.
