The white light emitted by the canopy of the six trees was hazy and soft.

The scene in the open space was shocking.

Nearly half of the villagers in Yuanshu Village were in tattered clothes, their faces were as white as snow, and some of them were rotting and turned over one by one, revealing the same bloodless human flesh inside.

The other half were like ordinary people, except that their bodies trembled faintly and their faces showed fear.

"Are half of them dead?" thought Zhou Fan, who was standing on the canopy of the tree and secretly watching.

In the middle of the crowd, there was a vacant spot for the patrolmen who were standing to maintain order, weapons in their hands, looking at the villagers coldly.

In the middle, there is a red coffin, and on the left side of the coffin is a straw mat, on which lies a middle-aged woman.

The middle-aged woman's face was not bloody, her eyes were closed, this was a dead person.

Patrol Captain Shan Yong, Fu Shi Hu Yao, and Yuan Shucun Muramasa were kneeling beside the coffin, their mouths closed one by one, as if they were reading something.

Due to the distance, their voices were very soft, and Zhou Fan listened carefully for a while, but he couldn't hear clearly what they were reading.

"What are they doing?" Zhou Fan did not rush out, but watched quietly.

At some point, the village became like this, and the villagers who stood like dead people made people tremble inexplicably.

After waiting for a while, Shan Yong and the others stood up.

Zhou Fan could clearly see that Shan Yong, the warriors in the village, were no different from normal people on the surface.

The seven warriors stood and discussed in a low voice for a while, and finally Shan Yong stood up, and he pulled out a dagger.

The dagger shone sharply in the white light.

Shan Yong's eyes widened, and he raised his dagger and shouted: "The longevity god is boundless!"

All the living people fell to their knees, and the rest of the villagers, who looked like they were supposed to be dead, stood motionless.

"Shoushen?" Zhou Fan in the distance was stunned.

He had never heard of the god of longevity, he only recognized the ghost of longevity.

At this time, Shan Yong had already stepped forward quickly, and when he walked to the female corpse on the straw mat, he knelt down, and the dagger in his hand was stabbed in front of the female corpse's forehead, and the tip of the dagger was drawn along the forehead, Yintang, the center of the eyebrows, the middle of the nose, and the middle of the lips all the way to the chin.

He peeled off half of the bloody face of the female corpse, held it in his hand and shouted again: "Longevity God has no borders!"

"Longevity knows no bounds!" all the living people chanted.

They had a look of fanaticism on their faces, even the two runes.

"Is this a sacrifice...... Zhou Fan's face changed slightly, "It's just a good village, why did it become like this?"

He guessed that the Yiluan Division in the incense must not know about this, and the two talismans, Shan Yong, and the living people were very good at hiding this matter.

Shan Yong whispered a strange word, and suddenly a white light flew down from the canopy of the tree, landing on the half of the human face in his hand.

White flames first ignited from the corner of the face.

Shan Yong quickly let go of his hand, and the burning half of his face was suspended in the air.

The white flames burned a little black light particle, and the light particles fell on the female corpse.

The female corpse's body began to glow black.

There was a strange pull from the light, and a little white light flew out of the bodies of all the living people on the field, and was sucked into the female corpse.

The woman's hands, half of her face, and her neck, which were exposed outside her clothes, were blackened.

The living crowd let out a cheer and stood up, in stark contrast to the silent dead people standing.

Shan Yong opened the lid of the coffin, and the other six warriors helped lift the female corpse and put it into the coffin.

Zhou Fan guessed that the female corpse was very heavy, because the six warriors lifted their faces red.

After placing the female corpse, Shan Yong closed the coffin, and the seven people lifted the coffin.

"The sacrifice is done, give way. The seven shouted in unison.

The living and the dead automatically separated a path, and the seven warriors lifted the coffin and walked outside.

White dots of light from the canopy of the five trees floated down and landed on the coffin, illuminating the way.

Only then did Zhou Fan see clearly what the white point of light was, it was a kind of insect the size of a fingernail, but each insect was brighter than an oil lamp.

The insect has a large compound eye on its head, and its body is as thin as a hair, slowly swimming, without any wings.

"This is a corpse light insect!" Zhou Fan's face changed slightly.

The corpse light insect is a kind of blood-level monster, which eats corpses for a living, and will only appear on corpses at night, but I didn't expect to see corpse light insects here.

Seven warriors carried the coffin to the front, and the dead and living behind them followed, forming a long procession.

Zhou Fan originally thought that those dead corpse-like people would not move, but now he had to change his mind.

In fact, even dead people were only his guesses, after all, he wasn't sure if these people were really dead?

We can only call them walking corpses.

Where are they going now?

Zhou Fan came down from the tree and fell silently behind the team.

Shan Yong must have thought that he was dead, or he thought that he had been subdued by them.

The core runes of the guard drum were destroyed in order to make the corpse light insects or those walking corpses better survive in the village.

Just now he rushed into two houses in a row, and no one lived in them, probably because half of them were already dead and became walking corpses.

But there were still some things he couldn't figure out.

Hu Yao's two talismans were sent by Yiluan Division, and they made a ghost oath!

You can escape when you encounter a strange enemy, but now they are in this state, making half of the people in the village a walking corpse, but they have not notified the incense fire Li Yiluan Division, this kind of behavior is betrayal!

If they betrayed the Yiluan Division, how could they bypass the oath of the oath?

Unless......

The procession headed towards the village.

Zhou Fan walked at the back, he wanted to see what was going on in Yuanshu Village.

He found the dude, who couldn't see him, but he patted him on the head.

The old man reacted and wagged his tail, just now the crowd came, it hid aside and did not come out.

"You just wait here for me, don't come with me. Zhou Fan said a word and followed the team again.

He was in a state of invisibility, but the dude did not, and in order to avoid detection, he did not let the dude follow.

In order to avoid being lost, he quickly took a detour and jumped onto a tiled roof, because of the light emitted by the corpse light insects, he could clearly see the coffin carried in front of the long line.

He jumped forward from the low roof, staring at the coffin.

After a while, the coffin carried by the seven people stopped.

This is the open space in the center of the village.

Zhou Fan's eyes narrowed slightly, he recognized it, this should be the place where the villagers of Yuanshu Village usually gather to hold a celebration.

But the altar had been torn down, and a house made of wood had been built on top of it.

The coffin was placed in front of the door of the house by seven warriors.

Five corpse light insects flew up and landed on the eaves of the wooden house, illuminating the surroundings.
