C15 This is a sad story
After leaving the funeral home, Zhan Dongyu immediately took a taxi and brought Xiao Lei to an abandoned industrial park in XX City. After getting off the taxi, Xiao Lei saw that there were beggars everywhere, wandering on the road in the industrial park.
"If that's right, this should be the trading center of XX City." Zhan Dongyu said quietly to Xiao Lei as they walked. Xiao Lei nodded noncommittally. Then, he saw a dirty old man digging around for things.
Just as Xiao Lei was wondering what the old man was fishing for, the old man pulled out a few earthworms from the ground. Xiao Lei saw the old man's joyful smile and then, as if he was looking at a delicacy, he looked at the living earthworms and carefully swallowed them.
"Damn!" Even though Xiao Lei had previously eaten live earthworms when he was undergoing his seal training, he had still taken a bath. Yet, why was this old man before him even more powerful than him?
"Don't look at me like that!" Zhan Dongyu saw an unfriendly gaze shoot out from the old man's eyes. She immediately stopped Xiao Lei from continuing to observe, "It's very rude to not like other people watching when you're eating."
"Huh?" Xiao Lei immediately turned his head away. "Is he a living corpse?"
"Of course." Zhan Dongyu nodded, "The living dead need to use detergent to bathe, and clean the toilet when brushing their teeth. The food they eat is also live, because they don't have any taste, and their stomachs can't move either. They can only swallow live objects to maintain their vitality, which can slowly decrease the aging or decay of their limbs."
"Swish!" As Xiao Lei walked, he sighed, "Haha, actually, every race is troubled by many different races. After all, in this world, humans are the best. Thus, living is really quite nice."
"Yeah, it's great to be alive!" Xiao Lei nodded thoughtfully. When they finished discussing this topic, they saw a huge factory with windows everywhere nearby.
"This is the so-called transaction point?" Xiao Lei pointed ahead.
"It should be!" Zhan Dongyu uncertainly nodded her head. In order to confirm, she could only slowly approach a few decadent strong men sitting together. "Excuse me, is this a, um, transaction point?"
"You are not a living dead person!" A strong man took a sip of wine, glanced at Zhan Dongyu and said indifferently.
"You can't buy things even if you're not a living dead person?" What Zhan Dong Yu was referring to was actually human limbs or organs.
"Hehe, as long as you can enter!" The living dead man laughed, and then he whispered a few words to his companions, and they all burst into laughter.
"Damn it, can't the living dead pay proper attention to other things?" As Zhan Dongyu heard the laughter of her opponent, she could only clench her fists and curse in a low voice.
"Do you need me to teach them a lesson?" Xiao Lei walked up and asked.
"No need! "A living corpse. If we don't provoke anyone, we shouldn't provoke him. Otherwise, if we get entangled by them, it'll be very troublesome." Zhan Dongyu stopped Xiao Lei.
Although living dead people do not like to participate in other things, they have one thing in common, which is that they like to band together. Although their physical strength is no different from ordinary people, and they are not a match for any race, but they do not have any other race, just many people. Furthermore, they are not afraid of pain, unless they are completely burned to ashes, otherwise, they will offend their own people or demons, and not stop until they die!
In addition, in a sense, the Ghost Clan that had been wandering around the Three Realms was their natural ally. Why? The living dead did not have a soul, but they could think and walk, and the Ghost Clan was just a soul, moreover, they could not be exposed to the sun. This gave the two races a convenience, because once the Ghost Clan needed to walk in the sunlight, they could choose a living dead body, and then, the Ghost Clan could walk in the sunlight and do many things the Ghost Clan itself could not do.
Under Zhan Dong Yu's explanation, Xiao Lei gave up on threatening a few living corpses like before. He could only put his hands in his pockets and look around at the living dead that were wandering around.
"Generally, abandoned places or places that humans rarely go to are places for the various races to live. Of course, with the exception of zombies!" Zhan Dongyu was afraid that Xiao Lei would get into unnecessary trouble, so she explained to him about the gathering characteristics of the various clans.
That way, they can stay as far away from humans as possible without starving themselves to death. As for zombies, they usually go to a certain night field, bar, or night market, and of course, they also prefer to go to the hospital, because according to the ancient contract, all races are not allowed to hurt humans. You know, zombies rely on sucking blood to survive, so when they can't suck humans, they like to go to the blood bank to mess things up.
"Hmm? "What's going on with Zhao Zheng and the rest?" Xiao Lei thought about how Zhao Zheng and his wife had been devoured by zombies and asked uneasily. From the looks of it, the ancient contract didn't have much effect on zombies.
Zhan Dongyu understood what Xiao Lei meant and shook her head with a bitter smile, "In fact! "In the past several hundred years, the zombie attacks on humans have basically disappeared, and in the turmoil thirty years ago, there were a few incidents due to self-preservation, but they were quickly extinguished by the fanatical humans of that time. Then, in the following thirty years, no more than ten of these incidents were reported to have occurred, and from the time that I started to understand and looked up information about the Zhan family, this time, Zhao Zheng counted everything.
"Then what is the reason for this Zhao Zheng?" Xiao Lei asked unnaturally. If zombies were really as they said, then how would Zhao Zheng explain himself? If that was the case, then Xiao Lei would be the first to not believe it. He had been in contact with Zhao Zheng for a period of time, and he was a completely honest person. If he was really that kind of crafty and dishonest person, with his brother-in-law's status in the local government, would he even need to bring his wife and children to live in that small house? Moreover, to be able to save someone like Xiao Lei, who he had never seen before and who didn't have any proof of identity, he definitely wouldn't believe that the other party was a bad person. People like Zhao Zheng wouldn't even offend normal people, let alone a zombie that travels at night.
"That's why I've been thinking about it." As she said this, Zhan Dongyu frowned, "I didn't inform the clans nor was there any news about them. They actually killed two humans just like that. I really can't understand it!"
"Then what are we doing here?" Xiao Lei pointed at the factory and asked his own doubts. It was clear that no matter what, it was impossible for a living corpse to have anything to do with zombies.
"Find out where the zombies are gathering!" Zhan Dongyu looked at the setting sun and said with a frown.
When Xiao Lei heard this, he nodded as if he didn't quite understand the situation. He then sat down, and at this moment, a strong man walked over with a moldy hamburger in his hand. "Hey, beauty. I'm treating you to food!"
When Xiao Lei saw the earthworm that was continuously drilling in the middle of the moldy hamburger, he frowned and wanted to stop it.
"There's no need!" I am a human! " After that person heard this, he lowered his head and shook his head as he walked away, "I was just saying, he was originally a human!"
What he meant was that there was no living dead woman like Zhan Dongyu, because no matter how beautiful she was, after death, she would become especially pale. Moreover, as time passed, her skin and muscles would slowly hatch, and no matter how beautiful she was, she would become ugly.
"They like to drink?" Xiao Lei looked at the glass bottles in the hands of those people and asked with a frown.
"That's gasoline! Add a little industrial alcohol! " Zhan Dongyu laughed. "Because their stomachs are already dead, normal alcohol can't give them any pleasure. On the contrary, the chemical particles produced by the mixture of industrial alcohol and gasoline can make them feel intoxicated, so …"
"F * ck!" This time, Xiao Lei had completely experienced the living conditions of the dead. Luckily, Xiao Lei didn't let Zhao Zheng and his wife revive. Otherwise, they would have hated him to death. To be honest, the living dead were indeed not human beings.
"It's dark! The trading center should also be starting! " Zhan Dongyu looked at the dark sky and then walked to the entrance of the warehouse.
At this moment, there were already many people lining up at the entrance of the warehouse. "Line up, one by one! There's plenty of trading items today, so there's no need to rush! " Someone shouted from the crowd, causing a wave of cheers.
Because the living dead need to change limbs or organs from time to time, and the number of deaths is not fixed every day, leading to the shortage of limbs or organs sometimes." Because the living dead need to change from time to time, the living dead need to change limbs or organs from time to time, and the number of deaths from humans is not fixed from time to time. Zhan Dongyu explained again.
Xiao Lei shrugged his shoulders. "How do you know all this?"
"As members of the Demon Hunter Clan, you have to understand these matters!"
After following Zhan Dongyu into the warehouse, he finally saw the true face of the warehouse. The entire warehouse was hung with limbs, organs, and even heads. Moreover, judging by the color of their skin, they probably died not long ago.
"Arm length 0. 6m ~ ~ 3kg, do you need anything? "
"Long legs. "Two meters, ~ ~ It weighs thirty-five kilograms and has extremely developed muscles. It's only been two days since it was delivered."
Of course, if it was an ordinary person who saw this scene, they would have already been scared silly. Xiao Lei followed Zhan Dongyu and weaved through the living corpses, the air was filled with a mixed smell of Zombie and Cleansing Essence, making Xiao Lei feel as if something bad was about to happen.
