Chapter 14 Battle of the Gods (10) Curse
As soon as he walked into the town, a disgusting stench of corpse came towards him. Meng Xinyao frowned unconsciously. The stench of corpse was mixed with an unknown pungent smell. Gao Ming wanted to show his gentlemanly side as much as possible. He said to Meng Xinyao, "You wait here first, I'll go to the town first to see what's going on!"
Meng Xinyao nodded gratefully, "Be careful!"
"Oh!" Gao Ming agreed, turned around and walked towards the entrance of the town with signs.
"Save me!"
After Gao Ming left, Meng Xinyao held the old woman and rested on the stone pier. Suddenly, she grabbed her ankle with one hand, "Ah!" She was so scared that she screamed in shock.
"Please... save me..." The master of his hand said this difficultly and fainted.
On the streets of the town, rotten corpses could be seen everywhere. The sultry and dry air breeds many fleshy maggots, sucking the flesh and blood of the dead in a rampant way. Gao Ming did not dare to look up and walked quickly to the center of the town. He also met many living people along the way, but most of them had sores on their mouths, and the exposed skin was also filled with suppurated yellow-brown liquid. No one dared to approach them after seeing them. I thought it was definitely caused by the plague.
Gao Ming pulled off a piece of clothing to cover his face, but he didn't know whether this was really useful, but it was just for peace of mind.
The center of the town is a fountain with a radius of about four meters. The originally clear water of the pool has long been dark green. From a distance, there are still wisps of faint mist floating, just like the poisonous soup that a witch in a fairy tale is simmering.
He couldn't move forward any more. Gao Ming reminded himself in such a strange environment. Perhaps he would be infected in the next second. Turn around and he quickly returned.
"Where have you been?" Gao Ming, who returned to the entrance of the town, found the old woman only under the dead tree, and was sleeping on the ground with an infected person he had never met. He asked the old woman, but she was crazy and ignoring him. Fortunately, Meng Xinyao finally came back at this time.
Meng Xinyao held a wooden basin in her hand that she had gotten from somewhere, and had half a edge missing, moving carefully, for fear that the water would spill outside, "I'll go back to the river to make some clean water, have you explored the situation of the town?"
"Don't mention it!" Gao Ming took the wooden basin and squatted beside Meng Xinyao, watching her drip water into the infected person's mouth bit by bit. "I suspect that all the people in this town may be infected by some kind of virus or plague. Many people died in the town. Finally, they met several survivors. They were almost like him. They couldn't talk at all. To be honest, his situation might be better." He raised his chin and pointed to the infected person lying on the ground. "Why are you trying to get an infected person back? Are you not afraid that he will spread it to us!" He was not complaining about Meng Xinyao, but just wanted to remind her of their situation.
After feeding the infected person water, Meng Xinyao shook her hands and dried it naturally. She said helplessly, "There is no way. I didn't get him back. I don't know where he came out. I think he has at least one breath. I can't wait to see him die!"
Because the body was filled with enough water, the infected person gradually woke up soon. Meng Xinyao stopped him from talking about gratitude and asked straight to the point. The infected person's narration was no different from the news brought back by Gao Ming, but it was more detailed.
"Our town is named Ekuna. The origin of the name is named after the boudoir of the beautiful queen of our country, Ekuna, which is intended to be beautiful and holy. Not long ago, our originally peaceful and prosperous home was invaded by foreign tribes. They burned, killed, robbed, and took everything for themselves. I heard that the fierce foreign tribes were called Akuna, and their highest ruler was a mysterious and strange witch, who wanted her tribe members to become her - a witch. Under the instructions of the witch, all our citizens became slaves to the Akuna people. The fate of our town was even more miserable, but because it was the same name as our queen, it aroused the witch's anger. She claimed that the people in our town were attached to the loyal Queen Ekuna, so let us bury the queen with us!"
The infected person was quite excited when he said this, his fists were clenched, and his chest was fluctuating violently. When he was breathing, he continued to tell the story of "I don't know what witchcraft the witch used. Suddenly one day, after a storm, the green poisonous fog rose up after she recited the spell, and the miasma quickly spread throughout the mountains and fields. After that, the sun hid in the dark clouds and refused to give us a trace of brightness. Several months passed, and the town was covered with a sultry wind all day and night, and in the well
All the water produced turned green and smelly, and waves of poisonous snakes attacked the residents of the town in groups. Later, all the livestock went crazy and bit their owners desperately. If they could not drink clean water for a long time, some people died of thirst and could not help drinking well water. They would also be infected with unknown epidemics and ulcers all over the body and die of ulceration. His body would become a source of disease and continue to be spread. Over time, corpses were everywhere, which is what you see now."
