Enemies meet on a narrow road

After a fight, Shi Yi's settlement was completely changed beyond recognition, several tents were all collapsed, and corpses were scattered everywhere.

There were several wounds on Brother Yaozi's body, and bones were visible in some places. They were bloody and very scary.

After Lao Bai regained consciousness, he pulled a lot of dirty rags from the body next to him and wrapped his head like a mummy. Then he lay on the ground and vomited loudly, saying that his headache felt like it was about to split.

He probably suffered a concussion after being hit hard on the head. It looked quite serious, but there was no way to seek medical treatment here, so he could only hold on.

It was rare that the two brothers and sisters did not fight each other. They were leaning on each other back to back. Brother Yaozi took out the last cigarette he had collected from his chest pocket. It was wrinkled and even soaked with blood in some places.

He smoked alternately, and finally handed me the remaining cigarette butt.

I usually don't touch this stuff, but now that I was in trouble, I was so worried that I accidentally took it and took a deep breath, which burned the filter before throwing it away. I felt that my lungs were burning, and I felt dizzy soon after.

He fell down next to Brother Yaozi, rested his head on his legs and closed his eyes.

In the darkness, apart from the sound of water flowing here, it was so quiet that I could even clearly hear each other's breathing. But it was the heavy breathing of the two rough men next to me that made me feel a sense of peace that I had not seen for a long time, and even

It's...a sense of security. Listening to all the subtle sounds around me, I suddenly felt that the twenty years I had lived were actually chaotic. Only now do I understand the difference between living and dead.

Zhang Xinya probably has the best physical strength among us. At the moment, he is cleaning up the corpses around him. He is dragging the stones one by one into the stream next to him. The stream is cut off, leaving obvious drag marks on the soft shallows beside the stream.

Finally, many fragments of bones were exposed.

These bones are obviously human bones, and more and more appear in front of us one after another. Some bones have obvious tooth marks on them.

Through this, a tragic event that has been forgotten in the long river of history emerges before us.

We can be sure that what the old woman told us was not all lies. In the war-torn times, a group of desperate people were driven into the mountains. From then on, we don’t know whether the cold or the heat will change. What year it is, there were still many of them at the beginning. It is a pity that this

The material output in the underground cave was not enough to support so many people, and they continued to fall one after another. So, in an accident, some people accidentally ate black mustard seeds and turned into another kind of creature. The consequences for the others can be imagined.

And know.

The saying that people in troubled times are not as good as peace dogs is probably reflected vividly.

Soon, this place was cleared and became our temporary residence. Our physical condition no longer allowed us to continue walking, and we had to get proper rest. Although this place was contaminated with too many resentful souls, the geographical conditions were still very good.

, the limestone pillars hanging down from the cave almost circle the place, leaving only a few openings. There are streams guarding the surroundings, and there is no slightest movement. Climb up and have a panoramic view. It is a very ideal place to stay.

Before I knew it, I fell asleep with my head on Brother Yaozi's legs.

After using the Earth Spirit Pearl, I felt extremely tired. Every inch of my body ached, and I couldn't even move a finger after I lay down.

As the saying goes, everything has a price.

But I didn't expect that the cost of using the Earth Spirit Pearl would be so heavy.

During my sleep, my body was alternately cold and hot, like I was going back and forth between the extreme cold and extreme heat of the underworld. When all this gradually subsided, there were waves of terrible stinging pains on my face without any warning.

It's like there are millions of silver needles pricking every pore.

"ah!!"

I screamed, woke up from my sleep, and immediately sat up. The pain on my face became more and more severe, and the pain continued to spread, and many places on my body began to hurt.

"Er Gouzi?!"

Zhang Xinya held my shoulders and shook me hard, trying to wake me up.

After a while, the terrible pain finally disappeared. It came and went quickly, but the pain was very unforgettable.

I gasped for breath, and then I realized that I was in the state of a paper man, which meant that it was night. When I looked up, Zhang Xinya and Lao Bai were surrounding me, with concerns on their faces.

I hesitated for a moment and asked: "What...is wrong with me?"

"Who knows!"

Lao Bai shook his head and said: "You have been sleeping for two whole days and you can't wake up no matter how much you scream. Mr. Zhang said that you were overdrawn too much and you couldn't wake up if you screamed, so we stayed beside you quietly and watched you go from ghost to ghost.

Become a human, change from a human to a ghost...well, and you have been having a fever, the temperature is scary, your skin is red, you feel like you can fry an egg or something, you are sweating all the time, and you are talking in your sleep.

, one moment he said not to bite you, and the next moment he said you don’t want to die. The most egregious thing is that girl Xinya just sat next to you and was about to wipe your sweat, and you grabbed her wrist as if Zhu Bajie was teasing Chang’e.

, you were laughing so obscenely, and you were muttering about why your legs are so long. We all suspected that you were just pretending to be dead. Not only that, but there are even more outrageous things..."

Zhang Xinya kicked Lao Bai hard, and Lao Bai finally shut up and stopped nagging, but the little content he had revealed was enough to make me extremely ashamed.

I swear, I never had any beautiful dreams. The authenticity of this matter must be questioned.

"How do you feel now?!"

Zhang Xinya straightened her hair on the temples and said softly: "Don't listen to Lao Bai's nonsense, but your state is really not right these two days."

I touched my face. Apart from feeling a little hot on my face, my condition was surprisingly good after the pain disappeared. My hands and feet were very strong.

"real?"

Zhang Xinya was full of doubts, and then took out her mobile phone. There was no signal at all in this place, and it was always turned off. After she turned it on, she turned on the camera, and asked Lao Bai to turn on the miner's lamp, and then handed the phone to

In front of me: "See for yourself."

I was puzzled by the result. When I looked at my phone through the front camera, I felt as if I had been struck by lightning.

In the camera, my stiff and strange face was red, almost like a red-hot soldering iron, and there were many burnt black spots on my body.

"Before, these dark spots were all red."

Lao Bai poked a black spot on my arm: "It's scary, it's like you were on fire. I thought you were going to explode on the spot..."

This master's words were so mean. I was already panicking, but after he said this, I couldn't sit still anymore, so I quickly stood up and looked at my master.

My master has come back and is sitting cross-legged on a high boulder, overlooking the outside. The ancient sword is stuck beside him. His face is very solemn, he is always on guard, and he told me that I am

I started to completely transform into a paper man.

Ghost makeup is painted on ghosts. Ghosts wear human skin and are not afraid of sunlight. They can harm people in the clear day. But if they are painted on people, they are the living dead, half dead and half living. They are alive during the day and dead at night.

Now, I am completely running towards death. The reason why I feel burning pain is because the Yang Qi in my body is resisting...

“But the time hasn’t come yet!!”

I said anxiously: "Didn't I say that in 7749 days I will completely turn into a dead person? But now there is still a long way to go before the deadline!"

"That's just a normal situation. If someone keeps teasing and stimulating the yin energy in you, the time it takes for you to completely turn into a paper person will be greatly shortened."

My master sighed, looked into the distance, and said only three words: "It's coming..."

it?

Who else could it be!!

It must be the thing that hurt me!!

There are thousands of painting methods and thousands of ways to solve ghost-painted skin. The only thing that can tease this layer of ghost-painted skin on my body is that one thing.

"Don't worry, we'll wait for it here."

My master comforted me and said: "It came to you in such a hurry. It must be that its owner can't wait any longer. There must be more hidden things behind it that we don't know. So, I think they are the ones who are really anxious. It just so happens that they are the ones who are really anxious."

, we might as well end it with them right here!"
