Human bone cart

Influenced by the numerous leg bones in the tombs, the bone carts in the village houses also developed intelligence over the years. Especially since they could often see the villagers in the village, they longed to return to normal life even more.

But there is only one wheel there, and there are few bones inside, so it would naturally be more difficult to find a living body that fits it.

Over the years, hundreds or even thousands of people have come to Nanhu Village, but only a few have encountered humans who can truly parasitize. Cheng Jialu is one of them.

The previous statement that taking photos of it would result in death for no reason was nothing more than the result of those who failed to find the cause and happened to find such a common point among themselves, and spread the word among themselves, and the psychological effect amplified the panic.

"But I checked, Cheng Jialu is indeed dead. If he wants to be a parasite, what's the point in killing him?"

Yang Qi believed that his professional judgment would never be wrong. Moreover, if it was a person whose heart had just stopped beating, there was still a possibility of resurrection, but his body had already developed obvious rigor mortis.

At least from a biological point of view, he is definitely dead and there is no way he can come back to life.

"Are you sure?" The voice did not come from the skeleton, but from the side of the tomb. Everyone present looked over there.

A gust of wind came from somewhere, and the candle in the inner room shook for a moment. The few people then discovered that in a corner that they had never paid attention to, there was a figure standing upright. It was the corpse they saw in the courtyard that morning, Cheng Jialu.

Due to excessive blood loss from his legs, his face was visibly pale, but it was undeniable that this man had indeed come back to life before their eyes.

"How could it be..." Gao Wenwen was slightly stunned, and happened to see the other person's eyes with a strange smile.

It was clearly the same face as before, but there was a subtle difference in the movements and expression, making it difficult to connect the two. Hidden beneath the skin was something even more unfamiliar.

Cheng Jialu took a step forward, and his body was obviously a little stiff as he walked forward. After all, it was a leg bone that had just been parasitized not long ago, and he was still in the adaptation stage, but it shouldn't last too long.

Thinking about it carefully, it’s no wonder that the most serious injury was his thigh when he fell to his death that morning.

I'm afraid it wasn't the bones that were turned outward during the collision, but the work of the human bone cart.

In the tomb, no matter how cruel and tragic the process of replacing the leg bones is, it will not be discovered by outsiders. Those who were previously chosen by the leg bones to enter the tomb were first killed and then reborn underground, but no one noticed.

Perhaps it was after Cheng Jialu's body was placed in the coffin by the village chief that the leg bones took control of the new body while everyone was avoiding the earthquake. They arrived at the tomb earlier than the villagers and had been waiting here for a long time.

Yang Qi widened his eyes and looked at his current physical condition in disbelief. He had examined every wound on his body during the autopsy.

Apart from the scratches, the most obvious and serious injuries were the torn wounds on the legs and the white bones that were folded outward, mixed with blood and flesh.

But now, not only have the bones been repositioned, but even the wounds on his face have completely disappeared, healing back into smooth skin. Only the bloodstains on his pants and the torn cloth remain to prove the injuries.

The strange and supernatural things at this time really cannot be explained by science.

Cheng Jialu slowly said, "I've been staying in that shabby house for a long time, and I haven't found a body that fits me."

Although he still spoke with the same tone, it was obvious that his speaking speed and tone were very different from before, more like the symptoms of being possessed by something.

But the man then glanced in Ding Can's direction and said, "You were standing outside and far away yesterday. Otherwise, I would have chosen you. We're just separated by a wall. What a convenient opportunity."

It was like this again. Ding Can saw his eyes fixed on her like an animal, and she didn't understand why these bones always wanted to target her, as if she was some very special existence to them.

Seeing the regretful look on Cheng Jialu's face, she finally couldn't help but ask, "Why did you choose me? What's so special about me?"

"We come from different bodies, so naturally, if we want to return to the human world, we both need to find our respective counterparts. That's why it takes so long. But you are different."

As Cheng Jialu spoke, he took a step forward and stretched out his hand, as if wanting to touch. The raised blue veins on the back of his hand were particularly obvious.

Ding Can frowned, still standing there without moving. However, Gao Wenwen knocked his hand away first: "If you have something to say, just say it. What's different about her?"

Have these bones really been trapped in the car for too long that they can't even speak properly?

Cheng Jialu didn't show any sign of being interrupted. Instead, he patiently explained, "You can be matched with all of us..."

The skeleton in the distance couldn't wait to take over the next words: "In other words, all of us can rely on you to leave here. This opportunity is so rare, we can't miss it."

After saying this, the skeleton laughed, and its whole body began to shake irregularly, as if it would fall apart in the next second.

The laughter of countless people came from all directions, reaching the ears without any escape, causing the person's blood pressure to soar.

The most primitive way of leg bone parasitism is to attach to the bones in the same position of humans and then merge and absorb them together.

After successfully entering the human body, it can obtain all of the human's previous memories, and quickly control the body and walk between heaven and earth.

This also means that only the leg bones can be replaced.

But the person in front of them was different. When using a special method to test the compatibility, the bones found that this person would not have any rejection reaction, which was equivalent to having no shackles.

They swarmed over her and could attach themselves to any bone in her body, truly replacing this human being completely.

Although in this way, there are several bones in one person's body at the same time, which is not very spacious, the bones have been waiting underground for too long.

Such a precious opportunity is right in front of me, and I don’t know when I will encounter it again. Of course, it is difficult to convince myself to forget it.

Ding Can looked at the bones. They had been stored underground for too long and were no longer a healthy white color. Instead, they were yellowish and had some black stains.

When she thought about them attaching to her body, gradually eating away all her bones and replacing them, she suddenly felt a chill and felt uncomfortable all over.

"Stop dreaming." Gao Wenwen pushed Cheng Jialu aside again, and even looked at him with some displeasure.

But there was one thing Ding Can couldn't understand: why this person was himself.

"Since we haven't met in all these years, maybe you are mistaken."

"No," the skeleton finally stopped laughing. "With so many of us, how could we be wrong? You were born to be one of us. Believe me, it will be over soon. We will be friendly and not let you suffer too much."

Just like them... Ding Can didn't like this description, as it made her feel like she had become an alien.

Yu Fu noticed the subtlety in her tone and simply tugged at her sleeve: "They'll say anything to get away."

"Don't worry, it's not that bad yet." Ding Can tightened his hands at his sides.

The skeleton realized that they wanted to leave. "You can't escape. Since you decided to go down into the tomb, there will be no chance of escape. If you must pursue it, it is your own choice."

But if the earthquake hadn't happened this morning, neither the villagers nor they would have come to this place. Yu Fu thought: "Did you cause the earthquake?"

In order to prevent these visitors from leaving and missing the opportunity to parasitize the human body, although it could not leave the tomb due to restrictions, the skeleton still used its control over the terrain to create a not-so-serious earthquake.

There were not many casualties, but it was just enough to prevent everyone from leaving the village and taking shelter in the air-raid shelter to carry out the next plan.

Zhai Ting also lured them forward in a way. She had originally just wanted to further confirm whether Ding Can was a suitable physical match, but she didn't expect there would be such a pleasant surprise.

The skeleton is originally composed of multiple bones of different ages and identities, and is only temporarily spliced ​​together. Now it can be separated very quickly and arranged in rows in front of you.

When viewed from the front, it looks like hundreds of thousands of small dots arranged in formation.

Anyway, the skin and flesh have to be cut open and then attached again. There is no need to worry about the sequelae of damage to the body. All you have to do is heal the wound carefully afterwards.

Gao Wenwen swallowed hard. To be honest, he was still a little nervous. He didn't expect that his fantasy would come true so quickly.

This tomb is so small that you can see the end at a glance, and there is no place to hide.

Zhai Ting, who had lost consciousness and fainted before, also woke up slowly at this time. After seeing the scene in front of her, she was a little stunned at first, and then she noticed Cheng Jialu.

She had experienced great emotional fluctuations after her boyfriend passed away. Now that she saw the real person reappear in front of her, a few gleams of light flashed in her bloodshot eyes.

"Jialu, is that you?"

Cheng Jialu then turned his head, the corners of his mouth still raised: "It's me, I made you worried just now."

At this moment, Zhai Ting just shook her head subconsciously, unable to think normally. After standing up hurriedly from where she was, she didn't even bother to wipe the scars on her face, and ran to her boyfriend in small steps.

After checking him up and down, they didn't find any injuries on his body. Although the bloodstains were horrific, the man was indeed intact.

She just whispered thankfully: "I told you, how could anything happen to you."

Since hearing the news of her boyfriend's death in the morning, Zhai Ting has been staying in the ancestral hall. She did not go to see Cheng Jialu's body. In addition, her mind was not working well, so of course she would not make too many speculations. She was just immersed in the joy of finding her boyfriend again, and her voice choked for a while.

When she took Cheng Jialu's arm, Zhai Ting did not notice that she was standing right in front of the leg bones floating in the air, which would be riddled with holes if she was not careful.
