Chapter 426: Bone Pit
Under normal circumstances, it will take a month on the road from Greenland City to Maosheng City, and it will pass through three small cities.
When Chen Fang and his party came to the second city called Broadaxe City, it was a small city inhabited by orcs and humans, which also indicated that they were only halfway to Maosheng City.
Entering this Broadaxe City, when everyone walks on the street, they feel a different atmosphere. It is different from the last small town. Everywhere in this city is extremely lifeless, the streets are silent, and pedestrians look like wandering spirits with their eyes blank. , most of them are sitting in front of their own house with a few portraits in their arms, chattering about something. When a group of people pass by, most of them hear words such as "don't blame me" and "forced to do so", which is very strange. The only What makes this city still a little smokey is that at lunch time, there is a smell of meat in the houses on both sides of the street.
Chen Fang and the others entered the city to resupply and find a hotel to rest for a day, but they spent most of the day shopping, only to find that almost all the shops in the city were closed, and the hotel also seemed to be closed.
"Uncle, it's so strange here, how come you can only see middle-aged men, and you don't see anyone like old people, children, or women?" Gong Xiaobai said to Chen Fang who was sitting beside him in a daze.
"It's dead." Chen Fang replied without focusing.
"That's too exaggerated. They won't all die. Could it be eating at home?"
"That's not right, even if you eat, you won't be able to see a child and a woman." Gong Xiaobai said.
This time, Chen Fang didn't talk to him, and he was still wandering in the sky. Although he had ended his autism recently, he still couldn't get any motivation, and he always looked like he didn't want to talk to him.
"Uncle, don't be like this, no one wants such a thing to happen, let alone you are not the one who murdered." Gong Xiaobai persuaded.
"Although I didn't kill Boren, Boren died by me. It was an unintentional mistake that makes people regret the most." Chen Fang said slowly.
Gong Xiaobai couldn't understand who Chen Fang was talking about Boren, but he knew that Chen Fang should be full of remorse at this moment, regretting why he went to encourage Kang Bazi in the first place, hating himself for killing so many people.
"Uncle, no matter how much you regret it, it's useless. Things have happened and can't be changed. You should cheer up and look forward instead of blaming yourself all the time. You still have two children waiting to be taken care of."
"Oh, why don't I want to cheer myself up, but my heart is so cold and my mind is full of killing those innocent people. No matter how I force myself not to think about it, my mind will still remind me involuntarily." Chen Fang sighed.
"I have a solution for this. My second uncle said that at a time like this, you have to indulge yourself and get rid of the depression in your heart, and then you will get better. Otherwise, if you hold it for a long time, you will either become a demon or become a pervert. " Gong Xiaobai said seriously.
"How to indulge?" Chen Fang turned his head and asked.
"Well, my second uncle said that there are many ways. He himself often participates in various dance parties and finds women to dance. By the way, after the dance, we can have an in-depth exchange of experience in various postures." Gong Xiaobai said after thinking about it. .
"..."
After hearing this, Chen Fang wanted to complain about Second Uncle Gong Xiaobai, but he couldn't bring himself to chat anymore, so he turned his head and stared blankly into the distance.
"You also help me persuade uncle."
Gong Xiaobai was in a hurry and asked Jimo and others for help.
"Let him stay alone, I believe he will recover soon." Charming said.
"What if you can't recover?"
"Then it will become a potted salted fish." Wenren said nonchalantly.
"How can this work? If a man is not self-motivated, he will not be able to get a wife." Gong Xiaobai said.
Wenren and Jimo in the front cab smiled, Gong Xiaobai was worried about whether Chen Fang could find his wife.
"Why are you so worried about him? You may not have cared much about others before." Charming said.
Gong Xiaobai said seriously: "Uncle is a friend I recognize, I don't want to see him go down like this."
"Okay, but even if you say that, there's nothing we can do. It's up to him to come out on his own, and others can't help." Charming said.
Gong Xiaobai saw that Jimo and the others really had no choice but to give up seeking their help, but he himself would not give up trying easily, so he started nagging Chen Fang again.
A group of people wandered around the city, smelling the fragrance wafting from the houses on both sides of the street, and their stomachs growled.
"Let's go out of the city to find a place to cook." Jimo said.
"Why do you want to go out of the city? It's impossible that there isn't a single store open in the city." Gong Xiaobai asked strangely.
"There really isn't a single store open, so we can only go out of the city to find a place to cook, or do you want to cook on this street?" Wenren said.
Gong Xiaobai looked at the tightly locked shops on both sides of the street and said, "It's really evil, don't people in this city want to live?"
So the group left the city and found a relatively remote place with a small forest near the base of the city wall, and began to bury pots and make food.
The food is the mutant beasts hunted on the road. Barbecue and broth are the staple food, and the fruits grown from the buds are the desserts.
While cooking, Gong Xiaobai, who couldn't help, talked to the busy women.
"I'll take my uncle to relax nearby."
"Don't go far." Jimo ordered.
Gong Xiaobai took Chen Fang for a walk nearby. While walking, he did not forget to chat with Chen Fang, telling jokes he had heard before, trying to attract Chen Fang's attention, but he failed, Chen Fang Although he responded occasionally, he still looked weak.
The two walked into the grove unknowingly, and after passing through several bushes on the ground, Gong Xiaobai saw a big pit in the woods. There were some white things, so he walked over out of curiosity. After seeing the things in the pit clearly, Gong Xiaobai jumped up and down like a cat whose hair was blown up, his hair was still standing on end, and he let out a groan. Throat tearing screams.
"Damn me!"
Using both hands and feet, Gong Xiaobai crawled up behind Chen Fang, pulling Chen Fang's clothes tremblingly.
"When you see something, you will explode." Chen Fang slapped Gong Xiaobai and asked while pulling his clothes.
"Uncle, the pit in front is full of bones, it's too permeable." Gong Xiaobai said tremblingly.
After Chen Fang heard this, he walked over, Gong Xiaobai didn't want to go there, but now he felt that the originally bright woods became very dark and dark, he didn't dare to stand alone, so he could only bite the bullet and follow Chen Fang behind.
Walking to the pit that Gong Xiaobai mentioned, Chen Fang saw that it was densely packed with scattered bones, but unexpectedly, he didn't see any head bones, so it was hard to tell what kind of creature the bones inside were. Yes, but looking at the shape and size of the bones, it should be the bones of two kinds of creatures.
Just when Chen Fang was wondering why there were bones here, Gong Xiaobai pointed forward with trembling fingers.
"Uncle, there are a lot of dirt bags over there."
Chen Fang looked over intently, and from the gaps between the trees in front, he could see that there were earth bags one by one, as Gong Xiaobai said, and a wooden cross was stuck on top of these earth bags. There seemed to be writing on it.
Out of curiosity, Chen Fang took Gong Xiaobai, who was unwilling but unable to stay alone, and walked around the bone pit.
