Chapter 6
Liu Xiong's face contorted, his entire body stiffened, and his hands stretched out straight, fingers splayed outward.
He lay on his back, emitting a series of agonizing howls, sending shivers down everyone's spine.
Seeing the fleeting black aura on his neck, I understood that the corpse poison was acting up.
Back at the cemetery, Liu Xiong was scratched by his father, and a large portion of his shoulder was scraped off by his nails.
His injury was the worst, and he had the most toxins in his body.
After the corpse poison started, every night he would howl like a werewolf, his teeth itching uncontrollably, craving to bite something.
His body became stiffer with each passing day.
When the toxins deepened after forty-nine days, complete corpse transformation would occur, and not even gods could save him.
It had already been eight days since we returned from Hong Kong; time was running out.
"We've encountered a ghost.
Is this person suffering from epilepsy?" Xiao Hou was startled and kicked Liu Xiong in the buttocks.
Lao Hou stood by, furrowing his brow, seemingly familiar with this scene.
I sneered.
"Boss Hou, you've become as ignorant as a dog's belly.
This person is suffering from corpse poison and is about to transform.
Didn't your master teach you? If you can't find resurrection grass in the next few days, no one in this village will survive." "Hahaha, corpse transformation? Do you think I'm easily scared? Where would corpse transformation come from?"
My father told me a long time ago that when they were chasing corpses, they were actually carrying corpses.
They would slide a bamboo pole through the clothes of the body.
All the talk about chasing corpses was nonsense." Xiao Hou mocked and laughed, kicking Liu Xiong again.
"I think this person has epilepsy.
It's a pity that he's useless.
I'll ask my uncle if there's a way to sell him." He punched and kicked Liu Xiong, who trembled for a while before gradually regaining his clarity.
He then hugged his head with both hands and remained silent.
This person is quite adaptable.
I unexpectedly gave Liu Xiong a few glances.
The sky gradually brightened, and sunlight burst out from behind the clouds, illuminating the entire village.
I followed behind the group, looking around.
The village was not big, hidden halfway up the mountain and surrounded by towering dense forests.
There was only one road leading out of the village, and the village entrance had deliberately been made into a large fenced gate.
As we moved, more and more people came out of the village.
Most of them were elderly men and women, and there were hardly any young people.
They held porcelain bowls in their hands, eating breakfast while watching the commotion.
"Monkey, why did you bring so many people?" "There are too many people, it will attract the attention of the police.
We can't do it like this." Xiao Hou snorted disdainfully and rolled his eyes at the person.
"Then don't you fucking come and share the money!" The old man was taken aback, immediately pursed his lips, and walked to the side without saying anything.
From the sound of it, it seemed that human trafficking was an entire village's industry.
Everyone had a share?
