After Huo Shen finished answering the question, his gentle voice fell to the ground. The tribesmen present all had a preliminary understanding of zombies, and everyone's fear of the zombies outside the door also dissipated a little.
The patriarch looked at several Miao young men and said, "Do you have the confidence to get rid of the zombies outside the door now?"
The young men shouted with full energy, "Yes!"
The patriarch smiled with satisfaction and nodded, then he arranged for the young men to take precautions to prevent being scratched by the zombies. Then several young men prepared to climb over the wall to kill the zombies.
When Huo Shen and Lu Ziyun saw this, they smiled and said, "Let's go together."
The zombies are used to increase the experience points of the Miao boys. Although they will not help, they feel more at ease when they go out with them, just in case
The boys had an accident.
The wall of the Miao village was not too high, so everyone climbed over it after putting up a barrier. The few people made so little noise that the zombies knocking on the door didn't notice them.
The young men circled behind the zombies, several of them took a siege posture, and then attacked them waving their weapons.
The zombie let out a hoarse roar from its throat and pounced on the young men.
It was their first time killing zombies, so the Miao guys were nervous, but each of them acted decisively. Plus, there was strength in numbers, so the two zombies' counterattacks couldn't hurt them. It wasn't long before the two zombies lay motionless on the ground.
The young men cheered happily, and then shouted towards the gate of the Miao village, "Chief, the zombies are dead! We can open the door!"
After hearing these words, the tribesmen's hearts finally settled down. They quickly opened the door to the village and walked out happily.
The patriarch looked at the young men who killed the zombies and said with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work."
The Miao guys grinned and replied in unison, "It's not hard! It's our responsibility to protect the village!"
The chief looked at the energetic and spirited Miao boys, smiled with satisfaction and nodded, then turned to the two lying on the ground.
Two zombies with hideous faces looked over.
Some tribesmen had already walked forward to watch the zombies out of curiosity, but they were all very afraid, so no one dared to get too close.
The tribesmen began to discuss in low voices.
"Zombies look green-faced and have fangs, so scary."
"It's such a sin. A healthy person was infected and became a zombie, and turned into this horrible appearance."
"I heard that there are zombies outside the village. How can the living people outside survive?"
"Our village is still the best. If I were to go out to survive, I would definitely not survive."
"But speaking of living people, is there another person on the tree?"
As soon as the old lady finished speaking, everyone looked up and glanced around, and saw a person lying on a tree not far away.
The middle-aged man who wanted to break into the village during the day was now clinging to the tree branch in a panic, feeling scared that he was almost eaten by zombies.
It has been a while, and he still hasn't recovered from the frightened look on his face.
Someone waved at him and shouted, "The zombies are dead! Why don't you come down quickly!"
The middle-aged man climbed down from the sturdy tree with a pale face, but his condition looked really bad. Before he landed from the tree, his face was dazed and his hands loosened, and he fell down.
Seeing this, a tribesman helped him up and let him rest against a big tree, then asked, "How are you now? Are you okay?"
The middle-aged man shook his head slowly, then waved his hand half-heartedly.
Someone among the onlookers saw his appearance, frowned and said in a low voice, "Could he have fallen from a tree and injured his brain?"
Someone nearby responded, "It's possible, but I don't think it's likely. The tree isn't very tall. Could a fall on it damage your brain?"
Everyone was talking at once, and the scene was so noisy as if a general meeting was being held. The patriarch coughed and said, "Everyone, be quiet. Stop talking for now. I have something to ask him."
The noisy crowd fell silent. The patriarch bent down and asked, "Did these two zombies chase you up the mountain from the bottom?"
This question had been bothering the clan leader. Logically, zombies couldn't climb the steep Wangyue Mountain, but it was better to be safe than sorry. If zombies really did come up from the bottom of the mountain, it would mean the Miao village was no longer safe and the road up the mountain would need to be closed.
The middle-aged man shook his head with a pale face, and told the whole cause and effect of the matter without hiding anything.
It turned out that after these three people failed to break into the village during the day, they pretended to go down the mountain, but in fact they did not go down at all. They just found a place to stay on the nearby mountain road.
I originally planned to wait until dark and sneak into the village under the cover of night.
But one of their companions was unexpectedly injured by a zombie while walking down the mountain. Because the wound was minor, he thought it was nothing and didn't tell the other two about it. That night, he suddenly mutated and pounced on another companion.
In a panic, the middle-aged man ran towards the Miao village and climbed up a big tree to seek survival.
The middle-aged man was in poor condition and his words were confusing, but everyone finally understood him.
When the patriarch learned that the zombies did not come up from the bottom of the mountain, he felt relieved. Looking at the pale face of the middle-aged man, he
I couldn't bear it, so I said, "Come with us into the village."
When the middle-aged man heard this, a look of surprise flashed across his pale face, and he stretched out his hand excitedly wanting to grab the patriarch.
But just when his arm was about to touch him, Lu Ziyun reached out and decisively pulled the clan leader over, keeping a certain distance from the middle-aged man.
Then he frowned and said, "Everyone step back and stay away from him! He must be injured!"
When Lu Ziyun's slightly cold voice fell, everyone was shocked and quickly retreated, keeping a long distance from the middle-aged man leaning against the tree trunk, not daring to move forward.
When the middle-aged man heard this, he yelled angrily, "You are talking nonsense! I am fine and not hurt!"
Lu Ziyun pursed his lips and whispered, "Look at your left arm."
It was a dark night, and the injuries on the middle-aged man's body were difficult to see. However, his mental state was too strange after he fell from the tree, so Lu Ziyun kept an eye on him.
It was not until he stretched out his hand towards the patriarch that Lu Ziyun saw traces of blood seeping from his sleeves.
Thinking that the middle-aged man was actually injured, Lu Ziyun's expression changed slightly, and he pulled the patriarch over without hesitation.
"Roll up your sleeves and you can see the wound. You have been injured by the zombies," Lu Ziyun lowered his eyes and spoke in a low voice.
The middle-aged man still looked crazy. He shook his head in disbelief, holding his head and yelling, "I'm not hurt! I'm not hurt!"
As he became more and more excited, it was as if all his strength was drained away from him, and his body tilted to the ground and began to twitch continuously.
It didn't take long before a zombie-like roar came from his throat.
In just a few seconds, the middle-aged man who was scratched was infected and mutated into a zombie. He staggered to his feet and pounced on the crowd.
The faces of the tribesmen watching changed drastically and they began to flee.
Because Lu Ziyun had reminded them, everyone had already kept a distance from the mutated middle-aged man, and after the tribesmen escaped, no one was injured.
Immediately afterwards, the zombie lunged towards Lu Ziyun and the others, but he remained expressionless and kicked it away. Huo Shen drew his scalpel and quickly stepped forward, stabbing it in the neck with a clean and fatal blow.
When the scalpel was pulled out of the throat, the zombie struggled a few times and then became completely motionless.
Huo Shen and Lu Ziyun worked together very well and it didn't take long for them to get rid of the zombies.
Seeing this scene, many of the tribesmen who were fleeing stopped running and looked at them with admiration. They couldn't help but think that they were indeed outsiders, and they were really good at killing zombies!
At the same time, the clan leader's eyes changed when he looked at them. He didn't expect that these young guys were so skilled!
So I couldn’t help but think with regret, how nice it would be if these guys were willing to stay in the village!
Thinking of this, the patriarch stepped forward and said with a smile, "Thank you for helping us get rid of the zombies. If you weren't here, no one would have discovered that he was about to mutate, and the consequences would have been absolutely unimaginable."
After saying that, the tribe leader coughed lightly, and he continued to ask with anticipation, "I know that you won't be staying in the village for long, but I still want to ask, can you change your minds and stay in the village for a while longer?"
These young people know a lot and are good at killing zombies, which gives the tribe a 100% sense of security.
So after hearing what the tribe leader said, everyone nodded in agreement and said,
"Yes, our village has beautiful mountains and rivers, and the scenery is beautiful. Don't you plan to stay a few more days?"
"The village is self-sufficient, with no worries about food and drink. It's definitely more comfortable than outside. If you ask me, you should all stay here!"
"Our Miao village is definitely a good place in the doomsday, you must give it more consideration!"
The tribesmen tried to persuade them to stay warmly, but Huo Shen and the others smiled and shook their heads, "Thank you all for your kindness, but we have important matters to attend to, so we really can't stay in the village for long. We need to leave after we attend Tang Lun and Xiao Ya's wedding."
For the first half of what Huo Shen said, the clansmen had no choice but to nod their heads helplessly. After all, he had important things to do, and they couldn't just hold them back from leaving.
But everyone was surprised by the second half! They never expected that Xiaoya, the girl from the village, would get married!
In an instant, the young people in the village began to search for Xiaoya, and then saw her and Aunt Li snuggling together, with a tall young man standing next to them.
Receiving so many people's gazes, Xiaoya and Tanglun couldn't help but feel shy.
Aunt Li smiled brightly and said, "My Xiaoya and Tang Lun are getting married the day after tomorrow! I am very satisfied with my son-in-law!"
The clan leader looked at Aunt Li, who was beaming with joy, and said with a smile, "I was planning to announce the good news that Xiaoya from the village was going to marry Tang Lun tomorrow.
We'll let everyone know tomorrow. But now everyone knows about this young couple's wedding the day after tomorrow, and the whole village will celebrate together!"
After he finished speaking, the chief continued with full energy, "After the apocalypse, the village has not been lively anymore, and people are getting bored. So we should take this opportunity to make Xiaoya and Tanglun's wedding a lively one!"
When the tribesmen heard the news, they cheered warmly, surrounded the young couple and gave them their most sincere wedding wishes.
