Chapter 1337 Causes and consequences

It was late at night when we returned to the intelligence agency headquarters. Hu Zi and Mu Yunxi were injured, and they were exhausted from running all the way. After getting off the plane, I arranged for Fu Chunya to take Mu Yunxi to rest.

As for Hu Zi, he had to hold on because of Miao Cuicui's matter.

In the office, I looked at Hu Zi, who was shirtless and was being treated, with a gloomy face. I wanted to speak several times, but I held back.

As for Miao Cuicui, she was like a sculpture, holding the child, standing motionless behind Hu Zi, like his personal bodyguard.

"Oh my God, Lao Wu, be gentle..."

Mr. Wu was bandaging Hu Zi, and perhaps he touched the wound, causing Hu Zi to grimace for a while.

"Qian Yu, your place is so magnificent, hidden in a mountain." Hu Zi turned to look at me and said in a sly voice, "As the saying goes, if you become rich, don't forget me. Now that you are rich, you can't abandon me!"

I laughed when I heard it, and my laugh was cold: "And then you brought her back to cheat me?"

"Look at you, are you talking like a human being?" Hu Zi was a little unhappy: "What if I cheat you? Aren't you my brother? Besides, this is your brother's child. Can you bear to let your brother's child grow up in such a barren place? Besides, Cuicui and I three grew up together. Can you bear to let her... a zombie with her child be bullied in the cave of corpses?"

I shook my head helplessly: "Tell me, what do you think."

At this moment, Wu Shengmao Buhui was there, but I didn't avoid it. After all, those present could be said to be my closest people.

"Qian Yu, you don't know, that cave of ten thousand corpses is really not a place for people to stay..." Hu Zi was still complaining, but I interrupted him: "It was not a place for people to stay in the first place."

"Uh, don't interrupt me." Hu Zi waved his hand: "That place is full of corpse smell, just like haze, it will never dissipate, and there are zombies everywhere, some acquired, some innate, but the acquired ones are basically the lowest level, some are even captured by some powerful innate zombies and used as slaves, digging for immortal bones in the immortal burial ground every day..."

"Immortal bones?" I raised my eyebrows: "What?"

"Let me tell you, there is a rumor about the Cave of Ten Thousand Corpses. It seems that a long time ago, many immortals entered the Cave of Ten Thousand Corpses and fought with the Corpse King. In the end, the Corpse King died, and all the immortals were seriously injured and died. The place where their bones were buried was called the Immortal Burial Ground. Some people... No, it should be said that some acquired zombies accidentally got a piece of immortal bones there, and after swallowing it, they actually broke through to the realm of incorruptible bones. So, these zombies began to go there to try their luck."

"Immortals once entered the Cave of Ten Thousand Corpses and had a big battle with the Corpse King? Why?" I looked suspicious: "Could it be that immortals really exist? Are these immortals from the fairyland, or... just a group of humans with high cultivation?"

I looked at Hu Zi and motioned for him to continue.

"Cuicui is one of them. Although she has good fighting power, there are countless powerful beings in a place like the Cave of Ten Thousand Corpses. As an acquired zombie, Cuicui's status there is very low. If I hadn't found Cuicui in time, I'm afraid Cuicui and her child would have been killed by those innate zombies because they hadn't dug up the immortal bones for a long time."

When he said this, Hu Zi's face also darkened.

"What about the Holy Son?" I suddenly asked.

"Holy Son shit!" When he said this, Hu Zi suddenly got anxious and said through gritted teeth: "In a place like the Cave of Ten Thousand Corpses, there are very few new zombies born, because the zombies have special physiques and it is difficult for them to give birth to offspring. Once a new baby is born, the boy is the Holy Son and the girl is the Holy Girl!"

Oh my!

Hu Zi’s words made the corners of my mouth twitch, and I thought to myself, what the hell, aren’t all these children saints?

"However, there are very few babies in the Cave of Ten Thousand Corpses. Including Xiaohu... uh, Xiaohu is, is..." Hu Zi held his head with an embarrassed look on his face. As for Mao Buhui, he gave Hu Zi a thumbs up and said, "Brother, awesome!"

"Haha, haha!" Hu Zi smiled awkwardly and said, "Including Xiaohu, there are about thirty saint sons in the Cave of Ten Thousand Corpses. These thirty saint sons are extremely important because they will raise all the saint sons together. The same goes for saint daughters. However, there is only one saint daughter this time. It is said that she was born and raised by the resentment of heaven and earth. Anyway, all the saint sons live together and fight with each other since childhood, just like raising a snake. The one who survives in the end is the real saint son, do you understand?"

"I understand." I nodded, but then a question came to my mind: "If it's like this every time, doesn't that mean that the innate zombie tribe will have a gap?"

If the offspring born in each generation will become the Son of God and the Daughter of God, and kill each other until the last person, then the innate zombie tribe will never have fresh blood injected, and in the end, it will be doomed to decline, because there will only be a Son of God and a Daughter of God left in the next generation...

"Qian Yu, these congenital zombies are different from us. How should I put it? Their lifespan is very long, and their fertility is not restricted by age. The most important thing is that the saint sons and saint daughters are selected every hundred years, so there will not be a serious gap."

I thought about it and said, "In other words, as long as there is a generation of congenital zombies, they can...keep giving birth to new offspring, right?" "

That's right, and there is a limit on the number of saint sons and saint daughters to be selected. I heard that there used to be 100 saint daughters and saint sons, but because there were too few babies born in the past hundred years, only 30 were selected, and this was a forced selection."

"But, your and Cuicui's children are not congenital zombies after all, so how come they were also selected?"

"I don't know about this, and Cuicui doesn't know either, but I think it's because the child has great potential, or maybe..." Hu Zi suddenly stopped talking here, and after looking at Miao Cuicui, he continued: "Or maybe, Xiao Hu was just dragged there to make up the numbers. To put it nicely, he's the Son of God, but to put it bluntly, he's... the food for those congenital zombie babies!"

My heart was shocked when I heard this, and my face turned blank.

Because at this moment, I finally knew why Hu Zi took such a big risk to bring Miao Cuicui and the child back.

The so-called selection of the Son of God is a fire pit with a doomed ending.

And which father would have the heart to watch his child jump into the fire pit with his own eyes?
