Chapter 31: Road to Survival
“I will never give up even if I serve the Immortal Chief!”
Li Sheng is naturally a person who values friendship and loyalty, and Xu Ke can be said to have changed his destiny several times.
It is not an exaggeration to sacrifice this life for him, and there are also factors of justice and personal hatred. Naturally, Li Sheng cannot let this strange situation harm the world.
As for how to enter the second floor of the inn, Li Sheng was also stumped by this problem.
"Brother Sheng, it's time to eat."
Xiao Chen didn't have the initial enthusiasm, even though he had eaten and drank enough on land and rested for two days.
Because I was on tenterhooks every night, for fear of accidentally shouting.
So after these two days, the four of them looked listless and had no energy.
Although Liu Dali looked depressed, his appetite was much better than the previous two days.
After two days of recuperation, his body recovered greatly. Not only was the wound no longer bleeding, but the low-grade fever had also subsided.
According to this sequence, the body will return to the level of a normal person in about a day or two.
At the dinner table, Liu Dali picked up the dishes on the table with a big appetite, and when paired with the freshly cooked rice, he felt that it was a rare delicious food in his life.
"Brother Li, why don't you move your chopsticks."
"Fatty's cooking skills are really good. The fried meat is fragrant but not greasy, crispy but not sticky."
"There is neither the mutton smell nor the fishy smell of fish."
Li Sheng responded a few words one after another, still thinking about the problems related to the second floor in his mind.
I picked up a chopstick of steaming stir-fried pork in my hand.
Just as he was about to put it in his mouth, he suddenly heard the sound of the rice bowl breaking.
I saw Liu Dali suddenly overturning the rice bowl in front of him, desperately pushing his hands towards his throat, trying to spit out what he had just eaten.
Everyone stood up in fright and were about to step forward to see if Liu Dali had eaten something bad.
Unexpectedly, Liu Dali suddenly jumped up from his seat, crying and laughing, shouting with a crazy face:
“I didn’t eat it on purpose, I didn’t eat you!”
"Let me go, let me go!"
Immediately let out a horrifying howl and ran outside as hard as possible.
Liu Dali, who was clearly recovering from a serious illness, now exploded with speed and strength far beyond ordinary people.
The other three people had no time to stop him and saw Liu Dali running into the rain like crazy.
In the blink of an eye, he disappeared in the rain...
The three of them understood that he was probably in danger and would not survive.
"What's going on? Why did he suddenly become crazy while eating."
Li Sheng frowned and looked at the knocked over food on the table.
Xiao Chen also suddenly said in shock:
"Fat man, did you poison the food, so that made Dali go crazy?"
"Xiao Chen What nonsense are you talking about! We brothers have been together for so long, if I want to harm you, I have to wait until today!"
The fat man is also aggrieved, and he will take a few more bites to prove himself.
Li Sheng stopped the quarrel between the two and asked why the other two had also eaten and why there was nothing strange.
"Is it not because of the food that Dali suddenly went crazy?"
The middle-aged fat man suddenly clapped his hands and thought of something.
“It’s that black meat!”
It turns out that after two days of consumption, there was less and less meat in the cellar.
The fat man tried to cook the two pieces of black meat in the corner.
Finding that it was not damaged, Liu Dali, who was helping the cook at the side, volunteered to taste a piece and found that it tasted really good.
That's why Fatty specially made it into a dish, which can be regarded as improving everyone's food.
“I really didn’t expect that there was something wrong with the meat.”
“It’s all my fault. If I had been more careful, Dali wouldn’t have had an accident.”
After this episode, no one was in the mood to eat meat or vegetables anymore.
Eat some vegetarian dishes and then go back.
Because Liu Dali died, the middle-aged fat man could only live alone in another room.
Li Sheng also received a warning from Xu Ke before, never put eggs in one basket.
At worst, at least two rooms must be occupied.
Although he didn't understand the reason, Li Sheng still chose to listen to Xu Ke's warning.
When they were leaving, Xiao Chen also told the fat man not to make any sound. Until midnight, Li Sheng was still thinking on the bed.
Xiao Chen on the side also saw it, anxious in his heart, and couldn't help but want to ask Li Sheng why he was worried.
Li Sheng sighed, just about to express his doubts.
But suddenly he heard familiar footsteps coming from outside again, and he was about to signal that the monster was coming, so don't speak yet.
We will wait until the monster is gone...
"Wait a minute... and then we will wait until the monster is gone?"
Li Sheng suddenly felt a flash of light in his mind.
He made a gesture to signal Xiao Chen not to make a sound, and quietly got out of bed to follow him.
Although Xiao Chen was extremely shocked and suspicious, he still chose to believe Li Sheng and silently followed Li Sheng out of bed.
I saw Li Sheng standing by the door, quietly waiting for the sound of scratching at the door.
About half an hour passed before Li Shengcai finally heard the scratching on the door disappear.
Then the footsteps gradually faded away, as if they were going to the fat man's door and scratching the door.
"Shhh... follow closer."
Li Sheng carefully pushed the door open a crack.
I saw no trace of human beings in the dark corridor, which was so eerie that it made people feel chilly in their hearts.
But Li Sheng still walked into the dark corridor calmly. Hearing the sound of the door being scratched in the distance without stopping, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and knew that he was probably right.
Xiao Chen also followed Li Sheng quietly.
But he lost a leg to the Dan people before because he could only walk with a limp and it was easy to make noises.
Li Sheng had no choice but to carry him behind him, and then cautiously walked out of the corridor.
While being careful not to make any noise, he quietly walked up the stairs to the second floor.
Until now, the sound of scratching at the door not far away still did not stop.
The sound of scratching at the door, which was originally like a wake-up call, now sounded more pleasant to Li Sheng's ears than fairy music.
This is a warning bell that symbolizes their safety.
As soon as they arrived on the second floor, Li Sheng smelled the source of the stench that had plagued them for several days.
The smell was a hundred times stronger than on the first floor. Li Sheng felt his stomach churning and almost vomited it out on the spot.
And a large amount of viscous yellow liquid has filled the corridor on the second floor, and has even flowed to the top of the stairs.
Although Xiao Chen was full of doubts, he still held back and did not dare to speak, for fear of causing danger to Li Sheng.
Li Sheng carefully carried Xiao Chen on his back as he walked in the muddy yellow water.
Although the ground is extremely slippery, you will fall to the ground if you are not careful.
But fortunately, he had already carried Xiao Chen on his back, so he didn’t have to worry about accidents due to his inconvenient legs and feet.
And he is already a second-level practitioner, and his body's coordination ability has greatly improved.
This test is not a problem at all.
Li Sheng first tried to open a door of the guest room on the second floor.
I saw that it was full and I didn’t know what it was filled with.
Li Sheng watched carefully through the moonlight outside, and the next moment he felt his breathing suddenly stagnant...
In that room, there were actually corpses of men, women, old and young wearing all kinds of clothes.
Li Sheng took a few steps forward in disbelief and opened another door.
There were also corpses stuffed inside, leaving no space.
Faced with such a scene, Xiao Chen, who was behind Li Sheng, finally couldn't hold himself back and vomited on the spot.
Li Sheng, on the other hand, forced himself to open all the rooms on the second floor.
I found the entire second floor except for one empty room.
Basically all the guest rooms have been filled with corpses, and the corpse oil formed by the decomposition of their corpses corroded the floor and dripped into the guest rooms downstairs.
No wonder they have smelled the pungent stench from time to time in the past few days, as well as liquid dripping from upstairs...
Only then did Li Sheng finally react.
Where have all the people in the town gone...
When I write more deeply, I occasionally make some typos or accidentally write the wrong name.
Readers who see it can point it out in the comments of the paragraph, and it will be revised in time on the same day!
