Everything that happened before his eyes, the bloody, alive, wailing and screaming scenes, were just like the scenes in "Resident Evil" that Yan Liqiang saw in his previous life. It was chilling.
"Moo..."
In a yard at the foot of his mountain, right closest to Yan Liqiang, a cow tied in a cowshed was crying miserably and circling in the cowshed, trying to break out.
Seven or eight villagers were surrounding the cow, their faces covered in blood. Like wild beasts, they began to tear the cow's neck and belly with their claws and fangs. The injured cow was terrified and helpless, turning around in circles in the cowshed. It pushed a man against the wall of the cowshed with great effort. With a loud cracking sound, the man's ribs were pushed out, but he still kept his head down, biting the cow's neck and gnawing on the flesh and blood on the cow's neck, as if he could not feel the pain.
Finally, the cow's belly was bitten open by a woman lying under him. The woman directly pulled open the wound on the cow's belly with her hands and tore the cow's belly open. With a splash, the cow's intestines flowed out of its stomach all at once. The cow struggled hard, cried out in pain, and finally knelt on the ground. The screams gradually weakened, and it never got up again...
In that small village, the same or similar scenes were happening in different places.
Yan Liqiang stood halfway up the mountain, as if in a nightmare, staring blankly at the scene in the village below. For a moment, even his brain was numb...
How could this happen? Hadn't he already seized the Holy Insect from the White Lotus Sect? Why was this happening? Why were the villagers at the foot of the mountain becoming like zombies
Could it be... Could it be... that the White Lotus Cult has more than one holy insect in its hands? The holy insect eggs that were added to the vitality soup and fed to the people in the capital... Actually... Actually, they came from at least two holy insects... I happened to snatch one tonight, and I learned about the White Lotus Cult's conspiracy, so I forced them to launch an attack in advance and kill the other holy insect, so that the eggs of that holy insect could hatch in the human body in advance...
After all, Yan Liqiang was no longer an ordinary person, and he reacted quickly. After a brief brain freeze, he combined the information he had obtained in his head and quickly deduced a conclusion that best explained the current situation.
If the situation outside the Imperial Capital is like this, then the situation inside the Imperial Capital City must not be much better
Everything he saw was like hell, but when Yan Liqiang saw this scene, his biggest feeling was not horror, but sadness...
Two lines of hot tears fell from Yan Liqiang's eyes...
From the time he knew the calamity was coming until now, he has been working hard, trying desperately to change and save people, but he didn't expect that the final result would still be like this. Countless people in the capital area would still have to suffer such a devastating disaster!
The heavenly calamity wants to kill these people! The imperial court wants to kill these people! The White Lotus wants to kill these people. These people are just living, living in a humble way. Most of them just want to have enough food and clothing, and don’t provoke anyone. Why do these heavenly calamities and man-made disasters always come one after another, always trying to kill and destroy them by all means - where is justice? Where is fairness
"Ah..." Yan Liqiang roared to the sky...
"Help, help..." In the darkness, a black-faced little boy of eight or nine years old cried out in fear, ran out of the village at the foot of the mountain, and ran towards the hill where Yan Liqiang was. Just a hundred meters behind the little boy, several people with stiff bodies, like zombies, were chasing the little boy...
There are still living people!
The crying of the little boy immediately pulled Yan Liqiang out of his inexplicable grief and anger. Seeing the little boy, Yan Liqiang rushed towards the foot of the mountain without thinking. Just after rushing out a hundred meters, Yan Liqiang saw a deep well made of stones that stored water next to a vegetable field on the hillside below. He jumped into the well at once, and in the middle of the well, he smashed a large stone with one punch, making a deep pit. With two loud noises, he dug up a space with the crushed stones, and then stuffed the large iron box containing the holy insect that he was carrying on his back into that space, and then blocked the gap with two stones to make it difficult for people to see from the outside. Then he jumped out of the well again and rushed down the mountain.
While in mid-air, Yan Liqiang's muscles and bones trembled, and his appearance returned to Yan Liqiang's original state.
In the darkness, the little boy stumbled down the mountain, fell, and rolled down a slope. The beast-like people chasing him pounced on him at once. The little boy closed his eyes and screamed in fear...
Yan Liqiang descended from the sky and kicked a few times. The people who were chasing the little boy were kicked more than 20 meters away with a cracking sound, and their bones were almost broken in half.
"Are you okay..." Yan Liqiang pulled the crying little boy up.
The child opened his eyes and saw Yan Liqiang's face clearly in the light of the fire in the distance. He didn't look as ferocious as the people he had seen before. He burst into tears and tightly grasped the corner of Yan Liqiang's clothes, "They are all dead, all dead, they are crazy, they... they want to eat me..."
"Is there anyone else in your family?"
“No more... No more... There is no one at home..." the little boy cried, his face pale and his eyes terrified.
"Hunk...Hunk..."
The noise not far away made Yan Liqiang turn his head again. The little boy screamed in fright and quickly hid behind Yan Liqiang.
Yan Liqiang frowned slightly. The people he had kicked away were now twisting on the ground like maggots, crawling towards him. With Yan Liqiang's strength, the people's internal organs had been shattered and their spines were mostly broken. If they were human, they would definitely not survive. But at this moment, the people who were kicked away were still able to move. They couldn't stand up, so they twisted their bodies and crawled on the ground, like wolfhounds with broken spines, with red eyes and mucus-like saliva flowing from their mouths. They were still baring their teeth and claws, and were determined to crawl towards him and the little boy beside him...
Yan Liqiang felt his scalp tingling, but before those people could crawl over, he kicked a stone next to him and broke it into several pieces of gravel of different sizes that flew over with a whistling sound.
A piece of rubble shot into one of the men's chest and hit his heart. That man was just knocked over, but he turned around and continued to crawl towards Yan Liqiang, but his speed was a little slower. Another piece of rubble shot into a man's head, directly piercing through it and smashing it. His brains flowed out, but the man still crawled towards him. The third piece of rubble was relatively large, and it directly smashed one of the men's heads completely. That man's body trembled and finally stopped.
This made Yan Liqiang realize that the monsters' weakness was their heads. Unless they chopped off or smashed their heads, ordinary injuries would be of no use to them.
Perhaps, at this point, these people can no longer be called human beings, but zombie monsters that were killed and controlled by the holy insect eggs...
"I will take you away from here. If you want to live, you have to listen to me. Do you understand?" Yan Liqiang said to the little boy seriously, and the little boy nodded with sobs.
"May I have your name?"
"My name is Yangwa!"
"Your last name is Yang?"
"No, I'm a sheep herder for the village, so... that's why the villagers call me that..."
The commotion here attracted some zombie monsters from far away in the village, but Yan Liqiang was not interested in getting entangled with them here. Before the zombie monsters came over, Yan Liqiang grabbed the little boy and ran towards the deer park at lightning speed from the field.
Just now, he saw fires in villages all over the mountain, but Luyuan seemed to be normal, with no fire or chaos. He wanted to go over to see if the people in Luyuan were okay...
