Chapter 65 How Can We Lie to Children?
Who would normally sleep in a coffin?
Cheng Mengyun was shocked. She looked at the coffins on the ground that were still shaking. Could it be that there were still living people inside?
Her heart was overwhelmed, but she still kept smiling on the surface, and even bent down to ask the girl: "Then Qiaoqiao, how long have sister Ye and the others been sleeping?"
The girl blinked, she seemed to be counting the time, and after a long while she said, "I have slept for 66 days."
Cheng Mengyun's expression froze. How could a normal living person lie in a small coffin for so long? For the guess in her heart, she continued to ask, "Have you been sleeping?"
Qiaoqiao nodded obediently.
Cheng Mengyun smiled and patted her head, the messy hair felt smooth to the touch.
Good guy, he has been sleeping in the coffin without eating or sleeping, which shows that this so-called "Sister Ye" is not a normal living person.
At this time, Cheng Mengyun suddenly felt that the little hand that was holding her was loosened. After the girl let go of her hand, she quickly ran away.
Before Cheng Mengyun could react, she saw the child run to a coffin that was constantly moving.
The black coffin kept making a "bang bang" sound from the inside, and the things inside seemed to be very powerful, and it kept attacking the coffin board above, and even knocked out a small hole in the place of a coffin board.
I saw the girl took out a hammer from under the white linen cloth covering her body. The hammer had been used for a long time, and the handle of the hammer was covered with marks of damage and stained with black and red.
The girl picked up a piece of wood from the ground on the side. The piece of wood looked like a piece of scrap, as long as a forearm, and one end was extremely sharp.
The three of Cheng Mengyun stood in front of the door of the small attic, still wondering what the girl was going to do, when they saw the girl stepping on the coffin cover, she seemed to have a lot of strength, just this action, she would stop The vibrating coffin was almost silent.
She held the cone-shaped log in her left hand and placed it in a position on the coffin, then raised the hammer in her right hand and smashed it down.
The wooden cone directly pierced the lid of the coffin with its strength, and plunged deeply into the coffin, as if it had pierced something in the coffin.
An inaudible howl sounded, and then the entire coffin fell silent and did not move again.
The three watched the girl calmly hammer all the vibrating coffins into wooden cones. The other side was expressionless, still holding the sweet and sour plum candy in their mouths.
She is very familiar with her movements, as if she has done it a thousand times.
Yinhua leaned into Cheng Mengyun's ear and whispered, "If the thing in the coffin is a person, she should aim at the head of the person where she hammered the spike."
Cheng Mengyun's back was sweating all the time, hearing Yinhua's eloquent explanation and calm voice, she wanted to thank Huazi's family.
Didn't this kid say that "Sister Ye and the others" were sleeping in the coffin, why did he change his face in the next second and mercilessly killed the contents of the coffin?
Please forgive her for using the word kill, the sound of the wooden cone piercing the coffin, Cheng Mengyun as a vanguard fighter against zombies, the sound sounds no different from piercing a sharp object into the head.
She thought again, why in the videos of the two bloggers Xiao Wang and Dazhuang, the things in the coffin are snakes, but the coffins in the small attic don't look like snakes?
After dealing with everything at hand, the girl should have seen the shock of the three of them. She put the hammer into the white sackcloth embarrassedly, and took the initiative to explain: "Those are waste products. Sister Ye told Qiaoqiao that when you see waste products, the most important thing is To wipe them all out."
Scrap? Cheng Mengyun's expression remained unchanged, and she echoed: "Qiaoqiao did a good job, and they were all wiped out. However, can you show your brothers and sisters the scraps?"
The girl should have liked Cheng Mengyun's praise very much, she showed a completely different smile from the one she had just cleaned up the coffin, but when she heard Cheng Mengyun's last question, she quickly shook her head: "Sister, don't touch the waste, it will hurt. "
She hurried over again, continued to hold Cheng Mengyun's hand, and dragged him towards the coffin in the corner on the left.
Why does it hurt to touch waste? Cheng Mengyun restrained herself from looking back at the coffins that were nailed into the wooden cones. Although curiosity tormented her heart, she knew that she didn't need to be impatient, and there would always be a chance to see what the waste was.
Yinhua and Zhao Qinghan naturally followed.
The further you walked into the small attic, a rotten smell came out, lingering in this dim space.
The girl pulled Cheng Mengyun and stood next to a coffin in the left corner. That coffin was very special. Compared with other coffins, the coffin lid was smooth and carved with patterns. The image was very immature. It was a larger stick figure holding a A little stickman wrapped in cloth.
Beside the coffin were some fresh bouquets of small wildflowers, still stained with morning dew, that are common in the forest outside Longevity Village.
Cheng Mengyun ignored the iron cages next to the left wall and focused his vision on this special coffin.
The girl's voice was very joyful: "Sister Ye sleeps here, and Qiaoqiao made her a beautiful coffin."
After she finished speaking, she let go of Cheng Mengyun's hand again, and when the three of them were caught off guard, she stepped forward and pushed the coffin lid aside.
The scene in the coffin was exposed in the dim candlelight.
A young woman lies quietly in a coffin. She is wearing a doctor-like white coat. The white coat is dripping with blood. On the skin exposed by the tattered clothes, you can see spots of color that are different from other places. , like newly grown tender meat.
Time seemed to be frozen in the coffin, and the young woman's breath was long, and it took dozens of seconds for one breath. The other party's expression was very painful, and his brows were tightly frowned in his sleep.
Cheng Mengyun restrained the numbness of her scalp, the person in the coffin looked like a living person or a dead person, she stared at the other person's attire, she just felt very strange.
She never expected that the so-called "Sister Ye" was wearing a white coat that obviously didn't fit the style here, and she saw a wound on the opponent's leg that was still bleeding black blood at a glance.
Black blood and pus flowed out of the wound, and many black lines spread outward along the wound, already occupying half of the young woman's face.
Cheng Mengyun could tell at a glance that this kind of wound was clearly a wound that zombies could bite out!
She squatted nervously in front of the girl, holding back her anxiety, and asked again uncertainly: "Qiaoqiao, how long has Sister Ye been sleeping in the coffin."
The girl was a little confused, as if she didn't understand that she had already answered this question, why did the sister ask it again, but she still answered obediently and honestly: "I have slept for 66 days."
66 days... The apocalypse has only started a month and a half ago, why did people bitten by zombies appear in Longevity Village two months ago?
Cheng Mengyun swallowed her saliva, she was still lost in thought, the girl asked weakly: "Brother and sister, can you save Sister Ye and the others. They are about to become waste products."
Waste...? Cheng Mengyun knew that he didn't need to sneak around to see what was inside those coffins that were still moving just now,
The so-called "waste" should be zombies.
In order to make sure that he guessed right, Cheng Mengyun asked: "Qiaoqiao, is it because sister Ye was bitten by a waste product that she also became a waste product?"
The girl nodded, and looked worriedly at the young woman sleeping peacefully in the coffin.
Cheng Mengyun heard Zhao Qinghan behind him utter a rare swear word.
If it is not expected, the coffins in the small attic should all contain "Sister Ye" who were bitten by zombies. Why some coffins move is because the people inside have been infected and turned into zombies, and they instinctively want to go out to hunt food.
And if Longevity Village had an accident 66 days ago, it is in line with the deserted appearance when Xiao Wang and Da Zhuang came to the village two months ago; it is also in line with the situation that there were people buying food in the refrigerator in the kitchen two and a half months ago.
"Qiaoqiao, there is no one in the 'Longevity Village', is it because something bad happened 66 days ago?" Cheng Mengyun continued to ask the child in a state of confusion.
The girl nodded again, with a look of fear on her face: "Yes, that day was really scary, and the waste products ran out. Sister Ye said, come to pick up our uncles and aunts when the time comes, and when you come here and see what the village looks like, will understand."
Cheng Mengyun had a problem. They were not the uncles and aunts who came to pick up people. Looking at Longevity Village, couldn't understand anything, just felt confused.
But fortunately, Qiaoqiao is as well-behaved as his name, because he is a child, and his heart is very simple. Among the three of them, especially an old fox who has been in the society for many years, after several rounds of warmth and food, Qiaoqiao put Some things were revealed unconsciously.
66 days ago, a few "waste products" locked in the iron cage in Longevity Village ran out and bit all the uncles and aunts including "Sister Ye". The whole village was covered in red, even the ground was covered.
"I heard from Sister Ye that 'semi-finished products' bitten by waste products should sleep in coffins. Some will get better when they sleep, and some will become waste products when they sleep. Qiaoqiao has made many coffins. Put Sister Ye and the others into the coffin, I hope everyone will get better, but in the end, many uncles and aunts have become waste..."
The girl's golden peas fell down, and her small face was wrinkled into a ball. She dragged Cheng Mengyun, who was squatting on the ground in front of her, and looked at her, crying, "Brother and sister, don't you take Qiaoqiao away?" , but please save Sister Ye and the others!"
Putting aside whether you want to save them or not, the three of them have no ability to save them! There is indeed a special drug that can suppress the zombie infection outside, but they don't have one on hand, and there is only the "one-shot zombie drug" that Yinhua brought in from the K City Base Central Hospital.
Cheng Mengyun showed a embarrassed expression, she carefully wiped away the girl's tears: "Sorry, we can't do it."
The girl gradually showed a clear expression, she seemed to have foreseen this ending, she wiped the tears from her face, and carefully put the coffin lid back on.
She has always acted sensible.
Wait, Cheng Mengyun watched the coffin board gradually cover the young woman's body, she suddenly remembered that something was wrong, logically, the speed of zombie infection is very fast.
A person with supernatural powers will turn into a zombie within three days after being bitten. Cheng Mengyun still remembers the speed at which Yinhua was bitten. Within a few days, the black line spreading from the wound of the zombie had already crawled to the ground. forehead.
This "Sister Ye" was bitten 66 days ago. Why is it still in a relatively stable infection and has not turned into a zombie?
If there is no problem with the person, then the problem is with the coffin.
Cheng Mengyun watched the back of the girl wrapped in white linen.
Besides, if the whole village has been bitten, why is this kid fine?
