Gu Xinglang stared at the man's mouth for a while, and a chill began to rise from the bottom of his heart. This man looked like he was going to rush up and bite him and Yu Xiaoxiao.
Yu Xiaoxiao was very calm. She had seen many scenes of zombies eating living people. In her eyes, the man in the swamp did not have any scary effect at all.
"Is he alive or dead?" Gu Xinglang asked Yu Xiaoxiao.
Yu Xiao: "Let's get him up and take a look."
Gu Xinglang held Yu Xiaoxiao's hand tightly and shook his head repeatedly. This kind of thing cannot be done!
"Don't worry," Yu Xiaoxiao comforted Gu Xinglang, "He can't hurt us."
"Xiaoxiao——"
After Gu Xinglang finished shouting, Yu Xiaoman also arrived above the pit, grabbed the man's hair, and pulled him out of the swamp.
"Nonsense!" The Great Witch could no longer remain calm when he saw that Yu Xiaoxiao had actually pulled the man out of the swamp, and shouted.
Yu Xiaoxiao tapped the yellow soil on the surface of the swamp with her toes and carried the man back to the ground.
"Throw this thing back!" the great wizard ordered Yu Xiaoxiao sternly.
The man, whose body was covered with a thick layer of black mud, growled in Yu Xiaoxiao's hand and stretched his hands desperately upwards, trying to grab Yu Xiaoxiao.
"Xiaoxiao!" Gu Xinglang shouted anxiously.
Before the little Yu Xiaoren landed on the ground, she threw the person in her hand to the ground fiercely. Her Royal Highness the Princess could "plant" a person into the ground even when she was standing, not to mention that this time she was throwing from a high place to a low place.
Looking at the person who was smashed into the ground by Yu Xiaoxiao, with his entire neck buried in the soil and only his head exposed on the ground, Gu Xinglang and Da Wu stopped shouting.
"He smells like medicine," Yu Xiaoxiao said to Gu Xinglang after she landed on the ground, "He is the medicine man of the Eternal Life Temple."
Gu Xinglang hurriedly walked up to the man.
"Click, click," the man had only his head left on the ground, but he was still looking at Gu Xinglang with his teeth clenched.
"There is one difference," Yu Xiaoxiao said to Gu Xinglang, "The medicine man in the Eternal Life Temple doesn't eat humans. This one seems to be very interested in our flesh."
Gu Xinglang's face turned pale and he asked, "Then what is he?"
Yu Xiaoxiao squatted down, took a stone and stuffed it into the man's mouth, and said to Gu Xinglang: "It's simple, just look at his head and you will know."
Gu Xinglang didn’t understand what Yu Xiaoxiao meant. Couldn’t they only see this man’s head now?
Yu Xiaoxiao took out a small dagger from her sleeve, shook it at Gu Xinglang, and said, "My father gave it to me. He said that it would be like playing with iron rods."
Gu Xinglang..., his father-in-law's original words should be "cutting iron like mud", right?
"What are you going to do?" The great witch walked up to the young couple and asked Yu Xiaoxiao.
Yu Xiaoxiao raised her head and glanced at the witch, then she swung the dagger over the man's head and, with a strong push, she pried a piece of the man's skull off. (==)
The Great Wizard's breathing suddenly stagnated.
"Xiao Gu, come and see," Yu Xiaoxiao called out to Gu Xinglang.
Gu Xinglang took a deep breath, squatted down, and looked down. Young Master Gu did not look well.
People who grew up in military camps and fought in battlefields are not afraid of seeing dead bodies, but Gu Xinglang has never carefully looked at a human brain, especially a human brain full of nematodes.
Densely packed nematodes wriggle under the meninges, and the white human brain seems to be the nest of these nematodes.
Gu Xinglang said nervously: "It, what if they are coming out?"
"It can't get out." Yu Xiaoxiao touched the dura mater under the skull with a dagger and explained to Gu Xinglang, "There are three layers of meninges. The one we are seeing now is the thickest layer. With it covering it, the bugs inside can't get out."
Gu Xinglang said: "What do you call it?"
"Dura mater," Yu Xiao said, "This membrane is called the dura mater. There are two more layers. One is called the arachnoid mater, which is attached to the pia mater of the brain."
Gu Xinglang said nothing, but stared at the human brain filled with bugs in front of him.
Yu Xiao: "Xiao Gu, do you understand what I said?"
Gu Xinglang said: "Xiaoxiao, you even gave these things names?" How free is his wife?
"It's not me who picked it..." Yu Xiaoxiao slapped her forehead and said, "Forget it, let's skip this topic. Anyway, Xiao Gu, you just need to remember what a human head looks like."
Gu Xinglang shook his head. He didn't want to remember this at all.
"I think I should find someone to come," Yu Xiaoxiao knocked on the stone that was blocking the man's mouth and said to Gu Xinglang.
Gu Xinglang said: "What?"
"Feed him," Yu Xiaoxiao said with a sluggish face, "See if this thing really eats human flesh." If this medicine man also craves human flesh, then what is the difference between this creature and a zombie?
At this time, there was another sound coming from the entrance of the swamp cave, like dripping water, or someone swallowing saliva.
Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang hurriedly looked towards the cave entrance.
Oh shit!
This time, Yu Xiaoxiao also widened her eyes. Another head of a person who wanted to rush up and bite them to death appeared on the water.
Gu Xinglang jumped up and asked in a lost voice: "How many of these are there?"
"A lot," the Great Wizard finally spoke.
Yu Xiaoxiao seemed to have finally remembered the Great Witch and asked, "Why are you still here?"
How could the Great Wizard not feel upset after hearing such words?
"Then what are these things?" Gu Xinglang asked the Great Witch.
"The living dead," said the Great Witch.
Now it was Yu Xiaoxin's turn to feel upset. Before the end of the world, North Americans called the zombies that only existed in their imaginations the living dead. Living dead people, aren't they just the living dead? If she lives in a place, will there be zombies in that place? This is going to drive her to death!
"When a person dies, he is dead," Gu Xinglang argued with the Great Witch, "How can there be a living dead person?"
"Yes," Yu Xiao said, "Your grammar is extremely wrong. If you can't speak human language, don't speak it."
Great Witch..., this brings us back to grammar.
There was a gurgling sound in the water, and another head emerged. This time it looked to be a woman. Half of her face had turned to white bones, but she was still making chewing movements towards the three people on the shore.
"This swamp is full of people like this," the Great Witch looked at Yu Xiao.
Yu Xiaoxiao stood up and said, "Why are you looking at me? I didn't create these people who can't die."
The Great Witch said: "The earth can no longer contain them."
"What?" Yu Xiao: "You mean, they are about to come out?"
The great wizard nodded.
Yu Xiaoxiao estimated the area of the swamp. If she were to use the power of thunder and lightning to burn all the living dead in the swamp into ashes, it would be tantamount to asking for her life. Even in the end times, when her supernatural powers reached their peak, she would not be able to accomplish such a feat.
At this time, a gurgling sound was heard again from the depths of the swamp. In the night, the sound sounded ominous and eerie.
