Chapter 901 Corpses
"Squeak..."
Along with the harsh old friction sound, the wooden door opened.
The moment the wooden door was pushed open, a pungent smell of blood and decay came to my nose.
The smell was so strong that I was caught off guard and almost vomited when the door was opened. I couldn't even open my eyes.
"Why is there such a strong smell of decay?" I wrinkled my nose, puzzled.
Even when there were corpses everywhere, the smell of decay was not so strong, but at this moment, in this dark room, such a strong smell of decay came out. Could it be that there are countless corpses piled up in this room?
The room was very dark, not even a trace of light could be seen. I squinted my eyes and looked around, and found that there were no windows in the room. Moreover, under the thick smell of decay, I seemed to smell the smell of...candles.
"What on earth is this place? It doesn't seem like a room where people live."
I frowned and took out my cell phone from my pocket. When I turned on the flashlight function and saw the scene in the room clearly, I froze as if I was struck by lightning.
"Is this...the ancestral temple of the Feng family?" I stared with my eyes wide open, looking horrified.
I saw that this room was about 100 square meters, with only one door and no windows. It was sealed tightly on all sides.
In the center of the room, there was an extremely large altar, on which were densely packed rows of tablets.
In the front of the altar, there was a large incense burner bowl, in which were inserted many unburned but extinguished incense candles.
However, these were not the reasons why I felt horrified. What was horrifying was that around the altar, there were so many... piled up corpses!
No, the word corpse could not accurately describe the appearance of these people, but should be called... mummies!
That's right, at this moment, the room was densely packed with no less than a hundred mummies.
The faces of these corpses were all extremely hideous. Some of them were piled together, and some were placed alone, lying flat on the ground.
"How can there be so many corpses?" I couldn't help swallowing my saliva, thinking that there were so many corpses placed in the ancestral temple of the Feng family. Could it be that these were all the ancestors of the Feng family?
But...
if they were really ancestors, it seemed a bit unreasonable to just abandon them here like this?
At the very least, they should be formal and have a coffin or something!
I walked into the room with a suspicious look on my face, and then squatted beside a corpse to check it out.
"Hey, this mummy... seems to have died not long ago?"
I saw that this was a female mummy. Although it had become a mummy, her body was not completely dried up, but still retained a trace of life. She was naked, and her organs were well preserved, without any trace of injury.
"This is not the ancestor of the Feng family!" I frowned and thought to myself: "If it's not her, then who could it be, and why was she piled up here? And... there are no wounds on her body, how did she die?"
I turned the body over and over, carefully examined it, and finally, I found two eyes at the back of the neck.
Because the corpse was dry, the skin was wrinkled together, so the two small holes were difficult to find.
"It seems to be bitten by...something?"
The next moment, my heart suddenly trembled, because in my heart, I suddenly thought of a possibility.
I hurriedly got up and walked to another corpse again.
This time, I turned the corpse over and checked the back of the neck.
"Sure enough..."
Like the previous corpse, this corpse also had two small holes on the back of the neck.
"Could it be that these mummies were all people from the Feng family who were sucked dry of blood by the flying zombie Meng Tian?"
At this time, I saw a mummified corpse placed alone in the corner.
Unlike the other corpses, this one seemed to have been specially treated, and it was sitting cross-legged on the ground, and even its hands seemed to be holding some kind of seal.
I approached carefully, and when I saw the face of the corpse clearly, my heart was shocked.
"Is this... the head of the Feng family, the second master of Chujiu?"
I had seen this old man once on Yulong Snow Mountain, and I was deeply impressed by him, so even though his face was dry, I still recognized him at a glance.
"How could this happen? Shouldn't these corpses be disposed of? Why are they still here?"
I was shocked. These corpses should have been disposed of by the Wushushan reserve forces, but now, these corpses have escaped again and returned to the ancestral temple of the Feng family?
But then, I suddenly thought of a more serious question: "Will the corpses turn into corpses after being sucked by flying zombies?"
I carefully examined these dried corpses and then shook my head.
"At the moment of their death, it seems that what was sucked dry was not only the blood, but also the vitality, meridians and even bones of the body, which were destroyed. Therefore, they have no possibility of becoming zombies." "
The bodies that should have been dead or even buried all appeared here. But Chu Jiu and others who were supposed to come here to worship their ancestors are gone..."
I slowly got up, turned around and looked around, trying to find more clues.
However, just as I got up, I suddenly heard a loud scream outside the door.
"Who!"
When the voice fell, there was a "bang" sound, as if someone jumped down from the branches of the big tree outside, and then there were hurried footsteps.
"It's Feng Wu's voice!" I rushed out of the house and saw that the car lights were still on, but Feng Wu was gone.
There was a friction sound of branches colliding with each other. I looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the branches on that side were shaking, as if someone had just rushed in.
"Did Feng Wu discover someone lurking here, or... did Feng Wu betray the Feng family and set up a trap with others to lure me?"
I frowned and stood there hesitantly, but finally I had an idea, spread my dark golden wings, and chased after him with a "whoosh".
