From eunuch to emperor

"Two Creek Village was slaughtered by pirates last night, and all the villagers died!"

Zhang Qian said anxiously.

Long Chen was stunned, Wu Jian and Jin Luo were also stunned.

How could this be?

Didn't they break into the pirate's lair last night?

How could there be Haikoutu Village?

"Go and see!"

If the village is slaughtered, it means there are still pirates running around, and they must be hunted down immediately.

Jin Luo was planning to leave, but at this moment he also followed Long Chen to Liangxi Village.

Long Chen only brought Wu Jian, Zhang Qian, Jin Luo, Dugu Jiali and Wu Chuchu to the camp, and Bai Tingting was still drunk.

There are not many soldiers, only Wu Jian's Xiaoqi guards are all cavalry, and they are very fast.

Even if there are pirates, the number will not be many, the most important thing is to hunt them down quickly, so Long Chen only brought a small number of elite cavalry.

A group of people galloped towards Liangxi Village, the sky was dark and low, and it looked like it was going to rain anytime.

In late spring, it was rainy.

An hour later, Long Chen arrived in front of a village. There was a mountain in the west. Two streams flowed through and poured into the sea. The village was in the middle, next to the sea.

This is how the name of Liangxi Village came about.

Stopping at the entrance of the village, Long Chen pricked up his ears and listened quietly. The village was very strange, lifeless, not even the sound of insects.

"Really slaughtered?"

Wu Jian said angrily.

Long Chen always felt something was weird, but he couldn't tell.

"go!"

Long Chen rode a horse into the village, and it was very quiet inside.

"Strange, the pirates slaughtered the village, but didn't set it on fire?"

Zhang Qian felt very strange.

During the war, the soldiers and bandits belonged to a family, and the soldiers also robbed food and women. Killing and arson were like twin brothers.

If Haikou slaughtered the village, these houses would also be burnt down, it is impossible to be so intact.

"Why no corpses? Where are the corpses?"

Jin Luo looked around strangely.

Long Chen finally remembered that the strangest thing was not that the village was very quiet, but that the village was too complete, the houses were in good condition, and there were no dead people on the road.

Long Chen walked to the door of a house, the house was low, with a brick and tile structure, with wooden boards on the roof, and stones pressed on it, this is to resist the sea wind.

Long Chen got off his horse, pushed open the door, there was a smell of blood inside, and there were blood stains on the ground.

Wu Jian ordered the Xiaoqi guards to be alert, and followed Long Chen into the house.

Zhang Qian leaned over to check the bloodstains, followed the bloodstains all the way to the bedroom, there were also bloodstains on the bed, there were traces of fighting around, the windows were smashed, and the bloodstains went out along the windows.

"This blood stain doesn't look like it was caused by a sharp knife."

Zhang Qian came to a conclusion after careful observation.

If you are injured by a sharp blade, the blood will flow quickly, and the blood spots on the ground seem to be caused by the bite of a wild animal.

Long Chen went out of the house, walked around behind the window, followed the bloodstains, and arrived at another house.

It was also a mess inside, with a knife dropped on the floor, with blood on it.

"It's strange, how many pirates have come?"

Jin Luo scratched his head and couldn't figure it out, this scene of fighting was too strange.

Long Chen shook his head and said: "What a strange scene, who said that the village was massacred here?"

Zhang Qian said: "It's an old fisherman. He has a friend here. He passed by to visit his friend in the morning and found that everyone here was gone and there was blood in the room. He told us that the village was slaughtered by pirates. "

Long Chen continued to search along the bloodstains, but the strange thing was that he didn't find a single person, nor did he find a corpse.

"Wang Wang Wang..."

Suddenly a big yellow dog jumped out, barked at Long Chen a few times, then ran away with its tail drooping.

Wu Jian drew out his knife nervously, and saw that it was Huang Gou who took it away.

"Where did the people here go?"

Jin Luo looked more and more strange.

Long Chen looked at the big yellow dog that had slipped away, and followed him from behind until he reached a cave outside the village.

The big yellow dog looked back at Long Chen vigilantly, and then entered the cave.

Standing at the entrance of the cave, Long Chen smelled a strange smell, Zhang Qian quickly covered her nose.

There are footprints and bloodstains at the entrance of the cave, and a cold wind blows from the cave.

"Is it inside?"

Jin Luo looked in, but the cave was too dark to see clearly.

Wu Jian shouted into the cave: "The people inside come out, or I will set fire to it!"

There was no response from the cave, only the big yellow dog barked twice.

"grown ups?"

Zhang Qian asked what Long Chen meant.

Long Chen pointed to the shed next to it, there was firewood quarried by fishermen inside, and said: "Light it up, throw it in!"

Zhang Qian hesitated for a moment, and said, "If there is someone inside, they will be suffocated to death, how about I go in and take a look?"

Long Chen resolutely said: "Throw the fire in!"

The three of Zhang Qian immediately came over with firewood, stuffed it into the hole, and lit the fire.

The big yellow dog inside saw the fire and barked in fright.

The firewood was lit, and although there was smoke, it also illuminated the dark cave, and one could vaguely see villagers lying inside.

"My lord, there are really people!"

Zhang Qian anxiously put out the firewood.

Long Chen picked up some pine wood, made a temporary torch, and said: "Old Wu and Lao Jin come with me, Zhang Qian is on guard outside!"

Holding the torch, Long Chen went into the hole, and the big yellow dog retreated to the corner, grinning and growling.

Long Chen ignored the big yellow dog, but squatted down to check the lying villagers.

These villagers lay quietly, their postures were in a mess, one on top of the other, there were men, women and children.

Some have reflexed arms, others reflexed legs.

Wu Jian looked carefully and said in surprise, "These people are all dead! But why are there no stab wounds?"

Jin Luo also felt very strange, and said: "These people seem to have been bitten by something, was it bitten by this dog? Is this a mad dog?"

Jin Luo knew that rabies was very serious, and he would almost die if he was bitten.

He suspected that the cause of death of these villagers was related to the big yellow dog.

Long Chen didn't speak, his heart was very shocked at this moment, he had an extremely bad guess.

Long Chen pulled out the dagger at his waist and stabbed into the villager's corpse, but there was no response and no blood flowed out.

Cut open the clothes of a dead body, there are tooth marks inside.

Long Chen pried open the mouth of another corpse, and the two canine teeth became obviously longer.

"How could this be?"

Long Chen's heart skipped a beat.

"What did your lord find?"

Wu Jian asked.

Long Chen didn't speak, he rummaged through the pile of corpses, and finally found a corpse wearing animal skin at the bottom.

The hair on this corpse was very long, and its appearance was obviously different from that of the villagers. The biggest difference was the skin. The skin of this corpse looked like old animal skin, and the canine teeth were exposed outside the lips.

"Drag him out, wrap your hands with a cloth, and don't touch them."

Wu Jian and Jin Luo worked together and dragged the corpse outside.

Seeing the corpse, Zhang Qian asked in surprise, "This...what is it?"

The corpse was not a local villager at first glance.

The sky was covered by dark clouds, and there was a light drizzle.

Looking at the corpse, Long Chen felt an indescribable feeling of absurdity.

The thing in front of me is exactly the same as the zombie in the movie, and the villagers in the cave look like they have been bitten by a zombie.

But isn't this world an ordinary ancient world?

How could there be zombies?

"I've never seen a body like this."

Jin Luo bent down and wanted to pick up the corpse, but Long Chen immediately stopped him and said, "Be careful, it's poisonous!"
