Old Charles staggered and slowly stepped into the charcoal pile that still retained the hot residual heat, carefully digging out the body covered by charcoal ash.
During the excavation, although there were tears shining in his cloudy eyes, his frown quietly relaxed.
Yaro held the heavy sword in his arms and silently observed every move of Old Charles. He secretly analyzed in his heart: "Old Charles has experienced life and death for a long time, so he can accept the death of his companions calmly. If his companions do not turn into monsters, it is a worthwhile thing." What a blessing.”
"Looks normal."
"As for Hami..."
Yaro glanced away.
Hami's expression was dull, his arms drooped naturally, but his fingertips were trembling slightly, and his eyes were looking at the charred corpse that was gradually dug up by the old man.
"Are you scared out of your wits?"
Following his gaze, Yaro took a few glances at the skinny and charred corpse.
The surface of the charred corpse was pitch black. His arms were holding his knees, his fists were clenched, and his cracked toes were also clasped. His whole body was curled up, like a shivering baby.
His back was like a roasted mutton chop, covered with carbonized tear-shaped wounds. From those gaps, slender bones could be clearly seen.
The rest of the body is also rotten, like minced meat spread flat on top. Only by looking carefully can you find that those places are covered with dense tooth marks. The teeth marks are deep enough to see the bones. Even if the body has been carbonized and dehydrated, those The terrifying tooth marks are still extremely clear.
His head was twisted and raised, like a turtle that had just hatched, his mouth was exaggeratedly opened, and his facial features were painfully twisted together.
No one could imagine how many undead monsters were biting and biting him at the moment of death, and no one dared to guess...at the moment when the flames started, whether he was dead or alive.
Was he bitten to death by an undead monster or burned to death by flames?
Or... died of suffocation?
No matter what, he is dead after all.
The green face had also been twisted into a ball. After being roasted by the charcoal fire, his pain and unwillingness were solidified at this moment forever.
Yaro lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes.
"I have no interaction with the scorched corpses. I feel uncomfortable when I see the expression of death. Hami...how will it feel?"
Touch winter, touch winter...
The sound of each of the five charred corpses falling seemed to hit Hami's heart. His face seemed calm, but the muscles in the corners of his eyes were constantly twitching. The muscles in his legs twitched several times, but they stayed in place after all. .
"Hami, Hami!"
Old Charles shouted several times, waking Hami up from his trance.
"Ah, ah? Oh!" After a moment of confusion, Hami finally came back to his senses. With a forced smile on his face, he turned around and said, "Dad Charles, what's the matter? What's the matter?"
Although Hami is still underage, he has experienced the storm after all, and his mind has not been messed up.
"Stop thinking nonsense, go and pick up the unburnt wood around." Old Charles had neither the mood nor the time to wait for Hami to slowly get sad. "If it takes too long, our commander, a powerful formal knight, will Baron Claire will definitely come here in person, and in that case, there’s no telling how he will punish us.”…
Baron Clare?
Yaro wanted to observe the change in old Charles' expression, but the old man had already lowered his head, holding a piece of broken wood, and skillfully dug up the ground with one hand.
Arrow's eyes flickered slightly, and he thought secretly: "Baron Claire? Didn't he go to the front line? Why did he appear here? Could it be that Old Charles just heard Claire's name somewhere to intimidate me? Is that why you specifically said that?”
There are a lot of unburned wood at the edge. These are all small pieces of wood because after the flames burned to a certain extent, the surrounding wooden boards collapsed to the ground, and the lack of oxygen suppressed the spread of the fire.
Hami glanced around and asked doubtfully: "Dad Charles, what do you want with those broken pieces of wood?"
"Can't you see? I'm going to dig a pit and cremate them."
"Cremated?" Hami's voice rose a few degrees, "Dad Charles, didn't you say you wanted to take them back?"
Hami was silent.
Those five people have all retreated. If combat prowess is ignored, Hami can carry two with self-control, and it is not a problem for Lao Xiaer to carry three more.
But without any explanation from Old Charles, Hami also understood that it was impossible for them to leave their lives completely in the hands of the stranger next to them.
Old Charles buried his head and continued digging, and said in a low voice: "Maybe... this would be better. We couldn't guarantee whether they would wake up halfway and turn into those emotionless monsters."
"By reburying them and burning them, we don't have to worry about them turning into monsters, nor do we have to worry about rearranging their graveyards. This is our former home, and it's good that they are buried here..."
Yaro didn't know what they had planned before.
But even if he could know, as Old Charles said just now, it was impossible for Yaro to restrain his hands and carry a time bomb on his back under all unknown circumstances.
Old Charles was guarding against Yaluo with a humble attitude, so why wasn't Yaluo also guarding against them?
However, an idea came to Yaro's mind.
Keep following these two!
If they are really soldiers led by Baron Clair, if Baron Clair really stays here and does not leave!
Then, Baron Claire must know some of the surrounding situations.
As long as you follow these two people, you will naturally be able to find Claire. Once you find Claire, you can quickly sort out the surrounding situation and use this to find the key point where the undead natural disaster breaks out, so as to destroy it and stop it.
Even if... there is that 'in case' situation, they are really spies of the Fernando family, and the worst outcome is just a fight, with the outcome uncertain.
If you win, you might be able to directly solve the problem, and maybe get a lot of experience points.
Even if he fails, there will be a substitute puppet to save his life, and the left and right are not unable to bear the burden. This is the 'maybe' in the 'in case'.
Thinking of this, a kind smile appeared on Yaro's face. He stepped forward and said enthusiastically: "Dad Charles, let me dig it for you."
"Oh, how can such a thing dirty your hands!" Old Charles said with fear on his face and refused.
But Yaro was not polite to him at all. Old Charles was not as strong as him, and he did not dare to object openly because of this kind of thing, so he was easily squeezed out by Yaro.
"It's okay, Father Charles, you and little Hami can go collect wood together. Everyone, please hurry up. If we continue, it will get dark."
