Chapter Thirteen Dead

Li Shan is a typical farmer with a strong body, a simple face, and his skin becomes dark due to long-term work. Perhaps because of the whole family on his shoulders, he is already covered in dust and frost in his forties.

He was carrying a hunting bow on his back, holding a pig-killing knife in his hand, and there was black blood on his body.

There was anxiety and fear, and despair. In despair, there was a hint of madness at the end of the road. This was the impression that Li Shan gave Li Yu again after a few days.

When Li Yu appeared, the black dog Dacai stopped barking and retreated to Li Yu. It was probably because Li Shan was holding a pig-killing knife in his hand, and he felt a sense of ruthlessness on his body. Dacai stood beside Li Yu and leaned forward, lowered his body towards Li Shan, his eyes full of vigilance.

Dogs are loyal to the Lord.

Seeing Li Shan, Li Yu immediately asked, "Uncle II, have you seen my grandfather?"

"After you said this, I remembered that I haven't seen it for several days." Li Shan replied for a moment.

Hearing the answer, Li Yu felt sad. It seemed that his grandfather had really left.

At this time, Li Yu fell into confusion, and the town turned into a ghost realm. Grandpa didn't know where he went, where he went?

Li Shan reacted and looked at Li Yu again and said anxiously: "Li Yu, you shouldn't have come back. Something happened in the village. There are so many monsters. You are still young. Go quickly. The further you go, the better. Go to the town, where it is safe. I have to go, and the village can't stay."

Looking up at Li Shan, not knowing what expression he made, Li Yu murmured: "Second uncle, can you still walk there now? The town is also a monster, many monsters..."

"How could this happen?" Li Shanmeng was confused. He thought that only the village was like this.

Li Yu smiled bitterly and asked again: "By the way, uncle, what did you encounter before?"

"I was awakened by screams in the morning. When I went out, I found that the whole village was in chaos, with cattle and sheep skewers and chickens and ducks flying in a row. I turned around and found that my wife and son had turned into human-eating monsters. Then I ran out of the village and didn't run far. There were more than a dozen people running together at that time. We stayed outside for a while, worried that our family would come back. As a result, we found that there were almost no normal people living in the village... Woo woo..."

Speaking of this, Li Shan, a sturdy man, actually squatted on the ground and started crying.

Seeing Li Shan’s appearance, Li Yu felt very uncomfortable and didn’t know how to comfort him. He hesitated for a moment and asked again: “What? What’s going on in the village that was burned to this point now?”

After sobbing for a moment, Li Shan looked up with red eyes and said, "After we came back, we found that there were almost no living people in the village, and there was no normal person. They turned into human-eating monsters. We had no choice. Then, we set a torch to burn the village, and all of them were burned..."

Hearing this, Li Yu couldn't imagine how frightened and desperate they were, so he made up his mind to burn the village. He lived here for generations, but the fire was gone.

When his heart moved, Li Yu asked, "What about the others? Why are you the second uncle now?"

"They are all dead, and I'm the only one left."

"Dead? How could it be all dead?"

"A few were killed by monsters, and the rest, in despair, they watched their families who turned into monsters buryed in the sea of ​​fire. The family was gone, everything was gone, and then they rushed into the sea of ​​fire to accompany their families. They couldn't stop them... I was not afraid of death, but my eldest daughter married into the town, and I don't know what happened. I wanted to find him and was about to set off, and then I heard your voice."

When Li Shan heard Li Shan’s answer, Li Yu could not imagine how desperate and tragic the scene of more than a dozen men rushing towards the sea of ​​fire without hesitation was facing their families who turned into monsters and buried in the sea of ​​fire.

"Then what are your plans for the next time," Li Yu asked after a moment of silence.

"I want to go to the town to find my daughter. Even if she becomes a monster, I have to see it with my own eyes to be willing to do so, otherwise I will die with my eyes." Li Shan wiped his tears and looked towards the town firmly.

"Let's go together, so you can take care of it," said Li Yu.

Grandpa is not here and his whereabouts are unknown. Li Yu no longer needs to stay in the village. He wants to go back to the town and find a way to get the money from Wang Youcai's family. If he is lucky enough to die, he may find a way to find his grandfather in the end. As for where to find and how to find it, Li Yu has not thought about it for the time being.

"Yeah, go together," Li Shan nodded in a muffled voice.

Looking at Li Shan, Li Yu said, "By the way, my second uncle, I came back with Dashu. Have you seen him?"

"He, hey..., come with me, but be careful, there are still monsters in the village that are not dead." Li Shan shook his head and smiled bitterly, signaling Li Yu to follow.

Li Yu followed Li Shan, and Dacai was by Li Yu's side, and he was always alert to his surroundings.

Li Shan and his friends burned the village too hard. Most of the wooden buildings became white land, and the unburned buildings emitted thick smoke and charcoal fires. In each burned building, vaguely saw corpses that were not completely burned, some one or two, some five or six.

There was no danger, and the two of them came to Li Dashu's house.

Li Dashu's family was also burned. There were two charcoal-like corpses in the burning building. There was a jujube tree in front of his house. Li Dashu was tied to the jujube tree by a vines. He looked at the home that had turned into ashes with red eyes and tears. His voice was hoarse and could not speak. He wanted to rush into the charcoal-burning home, but he was bound by the vines and could not.

"The first thing I discovered was him. As soon as he came back, he wanted to rush into the burning house. I had no choice but to tie him up, otherwise he would be burned to death." Li Shan sighed at Li Dashu, his eyes full of bitterness of being sympathetic.

Why doesn’t Li Shan want to go into the sea of ​​fire and be with his family? But he still has a daughter in the town, so he can’t die, at least before he sees his daughter.

"Big Tree..." When he arrived beside the big tree, Li Yu opened his mouth and didn't know what to say.

Li Dashu's eyes were numb, and he looked at Li Yu's voice hoarsely, "Li Yu, my family is gone, my parents are gone, nothing is gone, I am gone..."

"Big tree, mourn, live well, live well, the best reward to uncles and aunts," Li Yu also said with red eyes.

“Woo…”

Li Dashu cried with a whimper, and then fainted from sorrow.

Li Shan is an adult. Although he is so sad, he is stronger than Li Yu and Li Dashu. He took a deep breath to calm down and said, "The village can't stay anymore, and there are monsters. You can't collect the corpses for the villagers one by one. Let's go and go to the town. I carry the big tree on my back. We leave this sad place, and we can't see it, maybe it will feel better."

As he said, Li Shan went over and cut off the vines that bound Li Dashu, hung the hunting bow on his chest, and carried Li Dashu on his back.

Looking around this village that has lived in more than ten years, Li Yu didn't know if he could come back again after going there.

Three people and one dog, among the ruins, set off on the way to the town...
