At the end of the dark and narrow cave, after several gunshots, a pool of blood appeared on the muddy ground.
The zombie was shot in both of its legs and legs, and it collapsed to the ground. Apart from the old and dirty linen covering its lower body, the skin on its back and limbs were all exposed. At this time, large patches of fungus were stained with dark red blood.
"You …" The zombie howled in pain, and it was filled with hatred and venom.
If not for the information and autopsy, Gu Jun would not have minded blowing up its head. He said, "Turn around slowly. If you do something stupid, we'll do the same."
Ever since they arrived, the zombie had been facing away from them. Even after being shot several times, it was still facing away. That was suspicious.
This caused the group to feel nervous. If it was not a dog's face that turned around, if …
The ghoul slowly turned around, revealing its face. It was an old and ugly face. It had the outline of a human but also the strange features of a hyena. Its drooping mouth gave off a foul stench, and its eyes were dirty from living in the abyss for a long time.
However, it appeared to have been transformed from a human.
'Transformed? ' When Gu Jun heard this term, his heart sank. The ugly face looked familiar, like he had seen it somewhere before …
"Hmm?" Xue Ba had the same feeling. He frowned as he turned to look at the others and then at Gu Jun.
Gu Jun pushed open the night vision goggles on his helmet. The surroundings were dark, but the gun's light illuminated the ugly creature brightly. He saw a conspicuous black mole growing on the upper right side of the zombie's forehead. His mind started to turn …
Black mole, black mole, an old portrait appeared in the sea of memories, and it overlapped with the sickly face of the monster before him.
"You are …" Gu Jun's voice chilled. "Nan Tang Village's' Elder 'Chen Defa."
'Elder? ' When Xue Ba, Uncle Dan, and Lou Xiaoning heard that, they were reminded of the portrait they had seen when they were investigating the grave theft at Nan Tang Village.
It was on the photo of the tombstone of the most luxurious tomb, and it was also on the wall above the memorial tablet in the Chen ancestral hall.
One of the five who were robbed was the Chen Clan's esteemed "Elder", Chen Defa.
According to the village elder, Chen Shu Huai, it was Chen Defa who made the decision to take in the Old Dog Uncle and his family. After that, when the villagers tried to expel them, it was also Chen Defa who protected the Old Dog Uncle and his family. When Chen Shu told Grandpa about the strange ritual at Old Dog uncle's house, Grandpa told him that it was just a dream …
When they were still at Nan Tang Village that day, the group had already expressed their doubts about whether Elder was a normal person or not. However, the investigation that followed did not produce any evidence in this regard.
But now, the zombie before them appeared to be Chen Defa who had been dead for seventy-two years. He died at the age of eighty-five and was given a grand funeral by the whole village.
Gu Jun was reminded of another situation that Chen Shu Huai had told him. Back then, Grandpa had arranged for the Old Dog uncle and his family to deal with the nameless floating corpses that floated into the river. Ever since then, the villagers had been glad that they did not have to deal with the corpses themselves. They were glad that the floating corpses were taken away by the Old Dog Uncle's family before they could even see them.
The strange smell at Old Dog Uncle's house, the strange noise, the shadow that was summoned that night …
This Chen Defa and the other three villagers who had their graves dug up … had already joined the Old Dog Uncle's evil activities.
"Chen Defa." Wu Shiyu had gone through the information over the past two days. Other than the content of the nightmare, he knew everything. "Is it not good to be a human?"
"How long … can a human live?" Chen Defa's ugly face twisted even more. "Can a human be free from the threat of nightmares?"
Chen Defa's mocking tone sounded like he was talking about something insignificant. The madness that shone in his eyes gave the impression that he was above them.
This time, if not for Xue Ba, Lou Xiaoning would have fired a volley of bullets at this piece of trash. "You are the culprit behind the Nightmare Illness?"
"Ignorant fools, how dare you speak such nonsense." Chen Defa said. The condescension and madness that were suppressed by the gunfire earlier slowly reappeared. "Your Phecda was founded only fifty or sixty years ago. You have no idea that there are religions in this world that have existed for thousands of years. What you see when you open your eyes may not be true, and what you see in your dreams may not be all lies … "
'Religion? ' Gu Jun frowned. 'Is he referring to the religion that my mother and the rest belong to?
No, based on what happened earlier … Chen Defa and his group of zombies do not appear to worship that stone statue … '
"Like you cultists of R'yleh?" He purposely provoked Chen Defa.
"Ignorant fools." As expected, Chen Defa showed his resentment.
Suspicion crossed Gu Jun's mind. 'Is the Nightmare Illness the culprit of the zombie cult or the R'yleh Cult?
Did Ol 'Uncle Dog stay on that nightmare island willingly, or was he forced to?
R'yleh … Lai Sheng Company, are they related? ' Gu Jun shuddered. The Great Old Ones ruled the world. If the Son of Misfortune worshipped the Master of R'yleh, then who was the true god that the Afterlife Cult once said was a promise given to us by the true god? Who was the true god?
If the Afterlife Cult was the R'yleh Cult in the foreign world, and if the Deep Mountain Taoist and his mother were the R'yleh Cult in the local world …
Just like in the foreign language, "Afterlife Cult" was equivalent to "Afterlife Cult".
There was a group of people who abandoned their faith and another group who worshipped them. R'yleh allowed them to be reborn …
The first disaster was over, and the second disaster was coming.
Malformed Banyan Disease, Nightmare Illness … Messy thoughts flooded Gu Jun's mind. It was chaotic, complicated, painful, and complicated. It was difficult to sort them out.
The shadow of Lai Sheng Company suddenly reappeared, but it never left.
Gu Jun thought he had more or less figured out his identity, but now he had fallen into a bigger fog.
This made his heart clench, and he had a physiological reaction that almost made him vomit.
At the same time, Chen Defa slowly stood up. His calves were still bleeding …
"Don't move!" Xue Ba roared. Even though this monster was both mentally and physically injured, it still carried a great threat of malice.
Chen Defa was pointed at by the muzzles of five rifles, but there was no fear on his ugly face. Instead, there was only madness and insanity. "The things you call zombies can go to places you can't even imagine …"
Suddenly, it leaped at them. It opened its sickly mouth that was dripping with decaying liquid, and the sharp teeth glinted coldly.
It was extremely fast, and everyone could only react in an instant. Relying on their professionalism, they pulled the trigger. Bang, bang, bang!
Sparks flew, and several shots hit the ghoul's torso at the same time, sending it flying backward.
The zombie's old face twitched in madness. It screamed a hymn that none of them understood, and the light in its eyes faded away.
