I was confused and aware of the outside world, but my head was also very groggy. I felt that I should fall asleep, but I couldn't. This feeling of being half asleep and half awake was the most torturous.
Zhou Ze had heard Tang Shi say before that she had tried every method to get to sleep. Sleeping pills and anesthetics were child's play, but apart from making herself dazed and almost physically collapsing, they had no effect on her sleep.
People who crawl out of hell are like fish out of water. Without the environment of hell, they cannot adapt in any way.
My head is about to explode, as if I were a person having a nightmare over and over again, constantly going back and forth between one dream and another. I can't explain what I dreamed about, and I have forgotten everything. I don't even have the slightest impression of it. The only thing I remember is that I felt so uncomfortable and in so much pain.
It seems that the effect of the medicine has slowly worn off.
Zhou Ze slowly opened his eyes.
exhausted,
Deeply tired,
What followed was physical pain.
"Wake up."
Xu Qinglang's voice came from the side.
Zhou Ze turned his head and saw Xu Qinglang coming over with a wet towel to wipe his face.
The wound on his chest had been bandaged, so it shouldn't be a big problem. The most important thing was that God knew that old man Cui had actually put some medicine on it.
Xu Qinglang also had several bandaged wounds on his body, especially on his neck, which was wrapped in a thick layer of bandages.
Zhou Ze was a little confused and asked:
"What's wrong with you?"
"The zombie you killed last night suddenly started jumping around again after you left, but luckily I was able to take care of it."
"Are you okay?"
"fine."
Zhou Ze nodded and sat up from the bed, only to find that they were still in Old Man Cui’s mud house.
"Old man Cui is in the same group with that murderous zombie." Zhou Ze said.
"Yeah." Xu Qinglang did not seem too surprised. In fact, when Old Man Cui took advantage of the appearance of the zombies to escape, this idea had already been very clear.
"How are you?"
"It's a bit of a headache."
As he said that, Zhou Ze got out of bed and gently patted his forehead with his hand. He still felt a little uncomfortable on his head.
“Woo woo woo…”
A whimpering sound was heard. It was the man.
"He..." Zhou Ze pointed at the male host and asked.
"Oh, when you were sitting on the balcony, this guy wanted to chop you with an axe, but I knocked him out. Then I tied him up and brought him here. I burned some of the ghost money. We shouldn't have any trouble for the time being. After all, we didn't kill those people.
I didn't deal with the body in that room either, so I won't add to the trouble. Besides, it's not that easy to deal with."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Ze stood up and walked in front of the host.
To be honest, this man is very sympathetic. He has all the elements that make him worthy of sympathy.
first,
He has a mother who loves him till death.
Even after death, he will come to talk to him as a zombie.
His wife and son had just died.
Two of his friends died,
The "San'er" he mentioned should be the zombie from last night.
Also,
He lost a lot of money last night.
But for some reason, Zhou Ze just couldn't sympathize with him.
Reach out and take away the dirty cloth from the other person's mouth.
As soon as the other person's mouth is free, he wants to shout "Help",
As a result, Zhou Ze slapped him.
“Bang!”
"Save..."
“Bang!”
"Save..."
“Bang!”
“… … ”
“Bang!”
When it came to the last slap, the other party was obviously obedient and didn't dare to shout, but Zhou Ze still slapped him.
The other party suddenly felt very wronged.
I asked you to hit me, of course.
I stopped shouting and admitted defeat, why do you still want to hit me
Zhou Ze was stunned for a moment and said apologetically:
"Sorry, I just woke up and I'm a little irritable, so I wanted to slap someone to vent my anger."
“… … ”Male host.
I found a small stool and sat down.
Xu Qinglang brought in a plate of fried rice.
"Old Cui is so lazy that he doesn't even have chickens or ducks at home. He can't do anything better, so he'll just have to make do with what he has."
Zhou Ze took the bowl and chopsticks and said awkwardly:
"I didn't bring the Higanbana oral solution."
Because Boss Zhou didn't expect things here to become so serious, nor did he expect it to be delayed for so long, so he didn't bring anyone to eat.
Xu Qinglang sighed, as if he had expected this, and reached into his pocket.
I took out a bottle of plum juice.
Put it on the table.
Zhou Ze was stunned for a moment, then smiled.
"I haven't eaten this for several days. I miss it."
After taking a sip of sour plum juice, Zhou Ze began to eat his meal voraciously, taking advantage of the sour taste, like a prisoner who had just been released from jail.
Inexplicably,
Zhou Ze felt that it seemed more comfortable to eat like a wolf. Indeed, once some habits were formed, it was difficult to change them, no matter whether the habit was good or bad in the eyes of others.
After dinner,
Zhou Ze knocked on the male host's head with chopsticks. This guy was tied up here and Lao Xu didn't give him food or water, but his mental will was very strong. He could still maintain this tenacious state of life despite the misfortune, which was truly admirable.
"May I have your name?"
"Sun Kewang."
"When did your mother die?"
"Four years ago."
The man named Sun Kewang showed an unusual cooperation at this moment. The scene last night might have smoothed out all the thorns in his body. Maybe when he picked up the axe and wanted to chop Zhou Ze, it was his last expression of courage, but it was still destroyed by Xu Qinglang who arrived in time.
Some things can only happen once and never again.
"Four years ago."
Zhou Ze pondered over this answer.
He thought this was a case of blood revenge. The ancestor who turned into a zombie came out from underground and his first reaction was to kill his immediate family members. The same was true for the old woman.
"Where is your mother buried?"
"At the ancestral grave at the entrance of the village."
"Buried?"
"Yes, buried."
Zhou Ze shook his head. If it was cremated, there wouldn’t be so many troubles.
"Are you envious?" Xu Qinglang drank water while finishing off the enemy.
"What am I envious of?"
"I envy them for being buried in the ground, but when you come back, you can only hold your own ashes and you won't be able to appreciate your beauty in your past life."
"hehe."
"Oh, I forgot, your ashes are gone."
“… …” Zhou Ze.
"Okay, keep asking. I won't interrupt you."
"It's okay, let's chat some more. Old Xu, who do you think will die first, me or you?"
"You are a ghost messenger, I will definitely die first." Xu Qinglang replied.
"Who will hold your funeral?"
“… …”Lao Xu.
"Do you like rice with bone ash soup or chicken drumstick with bone ash curry and rice?"
“… …”Lao Xu.
Zhou Ze had indeed seen this statement in street literature before, which said that the country promoted cremation to prevent the appearance of zombies. This was basically nonsense, but on the other hand, it made sense, that is, the promotion of cremation did reduce the probability of zombies appearing.
If the corpse turns to ashes, even if you have the problem of fighting again, it is impossible for you to pour some water or cement to rebuild your body, right
"Your mother was buried four years ago, so it's not too late. Didn't you see your mother's ashes when the village moved the graves?" Xu Qinglang asked.
“No.”
"How could I not have seen it? It's fine if I can't find the old grave, but you..." Xu Qinglang suddenly thought of something, "You didn't get a coffin when you buried him?"
Sun Kewang shook his head.
"You are so filial." Xu Qinglang said sarcastically.
In this era, burial is illegal in most areas. If some stubborn people insist on burial, they also want to pursue decency. However, Sun Kewang's practice of burying his mother without even preparing a coffin is really hard to understand.
"By the way, you didn't ask the most important question. How did your mother die?" Zhou Ze asked.
This is the crux of the matter.
It is certain that his mother is having an affair with Old Man Cui, and this tunnel is the best proof.
If Old Man Cui hadn't appeared before, Zhou Ze would have solved the problem long ago.
Sun Kewang hesitated for a moment, and finally answered with difficulty:
"He died of illness."
“Bang!”
Zhou Ze slapped him.
A very crisp slap.
A very impatient slap.
This is enough to show that Boss Zhou has not yet vented all his anger after waking up.
"The slapping just now felt so good, I'm not satisfied yet, thank you for giving me this opportunity again."
As he spoke, Zhou Ze put his face in front of Sun Kewang's and pointed at Xu Qinglang next to him:
"Do you think he's so good-looking that he's easy to deceive?"
“… …”Xu Qinglang.
Sun Kewang shook his head.
“Bang!”
Another slap.
"Can't speak anymore?" Zhou Ze asked.
Sun Kewang's face was almost swollen from being beaten by Zhou Ze.
He had already suffered the most devastating blow in the past 24 hours, but at this moment, he still had to face Zhou Ze's torture in an almost joking manner. He had actually collapsed long ago.
"meeting."
"Okay, tell me again how your mother died."
"sick… "
“Bang!”
A slap.
"Keep answering."
"She is... She is... It's my fault... It's all my fault..."
“Bang!”
"Please don't be sentimental or build up any more, just get to the point."
"I killed him."
Zhou Ze straightened up and stretched.
It’s not that Zhou Ze is observant and has seen through everything long ago, but his acting is not good. When he first answered the cause of his mother’s death, he was hesitant and stammered. Those popular young actors who were complained about online have better acting skills than him.
"Why did you kill your mother?"
"She is pregnant."
Zhou Ze and Xu Qinglang looked at each other.
That old lady, is she in her sixties or seventies
"Can you still get pregnant at such an old age?"
Xu Qinglang asked Zhou Ze. After all, Zhou Ze was a doctor in his previous life and knew more.
"There are cases of women in their sixties getting pregnant and giving birth in China, and in their seventies abroad," Zhou Ze replied, "but this is very dangerous."
Sun Kewang seemed to be in a state of mind. His current mental state was a little crazy. Before Zhou Ze could continue to ask questions, he gritted his teeth and continued:
"At such an old age, she still had sex with men and got pregnant. She even told me that she wanted to live with her lover and begged me to just live with her even if we didn't get a marriage certificate or have sex!
My belly is big.
How can I, as a son, put my face to it
I told her to beat the child.
She still doesn't want to,
Ha ha ha ha,
I was with a few of my friends.
Put her...
Put her...
Cover her with a quilt.
Stifling!"
