I have experienced many strange events in the past few years, and my psychological quality can be said to be very strong, but when faced with the current situation, I am still a little confused.
Under the illumination of several oil lamps, the bud the size of a human head slowly opened and bloomed. The position that should have been the core of the flower was replaced by a fruit shaped like a human face, making this epiphyllum look like a deformed sunflower.
Surrounded by petals, with a human face in the middle, the fruit is covered with colorful lines. When combined, the lines look like an old woman.
Two thin eyebrows, two black seeds replacing the eyes, a pointed nose, dry lips, and a sad face.
No one spoke in the room, all was the sound of heavy breathing. They were too frightened to speak.
Without hesitation, I held the short sword to ward off evil in my right hand, lit the Zhengyang Talisman in my left hand, lit up the three Yang lamps, and activated my Heavenly Eye at the same time.
As expected, the sun light kept flashing.
It is indeed a standard evil spirit.
I looked at the weird fruit in front of me, and thought of an evil product in my mind - the corpse-blooded melon.
This is something similar to the red dates I ate in my childhood, but a hundred times more evil than those two dates.
They are both bred from resentment and corpses. The difference is that the two dates have the effect of confusing people's minds and corroding their souls.
The corpse blood melon is just the opposite. It has no effect on people's consciousness, but it can transform the human body after being eaten. It is said that it can make people immortal.
However, this evil thing must have a side effect, that is, this person will not be able to see the light in the future and will have to live in darkness most of the time.
But this kind of thing should be useless against zombies, right?
When I was wondering, the corpse-blood woman moved, and the flower branches swayed and changed angles, just like a pair of human black eyes scanning the people present.
Everyone's heart felt cold, and the garden shed was full of strange sounds coming from blocked throats. This was a muscle spasm produced by people under extreme fear.
"Don't be afraid. This thing just looks scary. As long as you don't get close, you'll be fine."
I reassured everyone, then raised my hand, and the short evil-proofing knife flew out.
"puff!"
Cut off the corpse-blood melon from the stem with a short knife.
"ah!"
An old man's scream came to my ears, green juice sprayed out from the broken part of the flower branch, and the small stem of the epiphyllum twisted like a snake, and there were screams one after another in my ears.
Then the five little flowers retracted from the bodies of Yan Liang and the five others. When they returned to their original positions, the buds had bloomed and turned into five small blood-red epiphyllums.
The broken corpse of the bloody mother-in-law rolled on the ground like a human head.
"Monster!"
Several people around finally shouted.
"Thump, thump,"
Several collapsed.
The rest of them turned around and wanted to run out, but their feet were a bit unruly and they were squeezed in the doorway before they could even take two steps.
I was about to take out my wooden sword and chop at the zombie Xue Po Gua.
Swish, brush, brush! Countless flower branches flew out, rolled up the mother-in-law melon, and wrapped it into a ball. Then the surrounding land roiled, and the epiphyllum was retracted into the soil like an earthworm, leaving no trace behind.
Only a messy land was left.
"Quick, save Ryoko and the others!"
It was still the heart-to-heart relationship between father and son. Yan Fugui woke up from the panic first and hurriedly shouted for help. He rushed over to pick up his son and pulled him out, but he was too frightened and could not hold him at all.
Everyone else is scared to death, who can get through?
"Everyone, don't run away! This thing looks scary, but it has cut off its foundation and won't hurt us.
"Listen to me, the people who planted it are the most terrifying. If we don't find out the scourge, not only will Guang Yanliang and the others not be able to survive? Our Dajin Village will not be able to stop it in the future."
I hurriedly jumped to the door to stop the person who was about to run.
Zhao Zhijia also reacted.
"Yes, listen to my nephew, he is a god!"
In his desperation, Old Zhaotou even composed the words of the missionary.
"This thing belongs to our Dajin Village. If we don't kill him, what will we do in the future? We are not allowed to run away, and no one should be treated as a coward!"
Zhao Zhijia was anxious. What I just said was not wrong at all. Something is going to happen? He was the first to be unlucky.
"Zhao Jin, Zhao Bao, you two come over here, go and listen to your brother-in-law!"
Lao Zhaotou threw his son out first.
When Lao Yan saw that no one was saving his son, he also started to use his big moves.
"Folks, we all listen to Doctor Zhou. You all know what kind of person I, Yan Fugui, am.
"As long as I save my son, for everyone present, I will give you three hundred yuan each, and you will become relatives of our Yan family from now on."
Yan Fugui spent a lot of money. He was more generous than Lao Lei's family and only spent 300 yuan.
Du Jun took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire.
"Everyone, what are you afraid of? Didn't you see that the flowers have shrunk back? It's dark outside, and there might be something else on the mountain. If you want to leave, you can leave on your own!"
These people were silent. After all, there was Zhou Dashen in front of us in this room! What if they were allowed to go back on their own?
If something else comes out of the mountain, it will be called Tianwumen!
Besides, it seems there is really no danger now!
"Ah, yes, we didn't want to run away, we just wanted to get some fresh air outside."
"Village Chief, we listen to you. It doesn't matter whether it's money or not, but we can't just ignore Yan Liang!"
So several people rushed over and carried Yan Liang and others back.
"Okay, send people outside first, and everyone else will come back."
"Quick! Get a shovel and dig down here."
I jumped to the side of the mound, and Zhao Zhijia also followed.
"What are you looking at? Dig quickly.
"Eh!"
You can't think of anything else in this situation. They were also numb. They went up and started digging with shovels. No one spoke during the operation, and the scene was completely silent.
"Xiao Dao, niece-in-law, please tell the truth to my second uncle.
"Can this matter be sorted out today? No lives will be lost! Are there more than a dozen people here?"
Zhao Zhijia is now filled with regret and his voice is choked with sobs.
"Second uncle, don't worry, nothing will happen. As long as they obey, I guarantee that they can all leave this yard safely."
Zhao Zhijia wiped his sweat and complained again.
"So dangerous? Why didn't you tell me earlier? Let's get a few more shotguns and find a few more people. It's better than this!"
"Second uncle, those are useless. Even the gun in the army's hand is not for hurting people. It is for signaling to find helpers." I shook my head and answered.
Zhao Zhijia didn't understand what I meant, so he kept urging those people.
It was quickly dug under our watchful eyes.
"Mom, what is all this?"
Following Zhao Jin's exclamation, these people climbed up one after another and ran away.
The ground was densely packed with fur and bones. Because the time was short, some of the corpses were still intact. It could be seen that they were all foxes.
In the middle of the corpse, a large potato-shaped flower root was exposed, and the surrounding flower branches extended to unknown places along the ground.
"Fox, so many fox corpses?"
Yan Fugui was stunned for a moment, then turned pale.
"These beasts actually threw all our foxes here. They are afraid that the Yan family will not be completely defeated!"
"Uncle Yan, this is not your domestic fox!" I carefully observed the corpses of the foxes below.
"They are all wild foxes in the mountains. You don't notice them at all. In fact, the foxes in the cage at your house are also from the mountains.
"It seems that the fox in our village is not just as simple as Sun Debiao and the little fox fairy."
The last sentence was spoken so softly that no one around them understood it.
