From Zero to Hero in the Doomsday - Chapter 1112
Chapter 1112 Master Six’s Trusted Aides
The corpse collectors were known for their loose military discipline. Other than normal patrolling soldiers, everyone else walked the streets in twos and threes. Their hooked shoulders and shoulders looked like hoodlums. However, this was only the appearance that outsiders saw, because every qualified corpse collector knew what they should do.
“Bang ~”
Suddenly, there was a loud explosion. Two burly men fell out of a small building. They were so heavy that they could not get up for half a day. Several corpse collectors who were wandering around did not say anything. They stepped on their faces with their feet and put their spears on their necks with cold smiles.
“Military Masters, we don’t need money anymore. We’re just poor people begging for food. Don’t make things difficult for us …”
Very quickly! Another two slender women appeared from upstairs. They stood on the edge of the roof in panic and pleaded bitterly. However, a few soldiers in disheveled clothes forced themselves forward. They raised their Corpse Claw Spear and said disdainfully, “If you have the ability, jump down. If you jump down, we won’t cause you any trouble!”
“Stop! What are you doing …”
Shen Yanwei angrily rushed out of the room and pointed at the soldiers upstairs and angrily said, “Didn’t you hear my brother Wen’s words? You are not allowed to harass the civilians here, but you actually dare to tease women in front of everyone. You … what kind of bullshit government army do you think you are? Are you bullying people like this?”
“Xiao Wei! Help! They’re not paying for food and they’re hitting people! Hurry up and save us!”
The two women squatted upstairs and cried out loudly. The surrounding residents all heard the news, but they only dared to point at the surroundings. They didn’t dare to lean over to help them say a word. However, they all said that these corpse collectors were no different from bandits. They were just smelly hooligans wearing skins.
“What the hell? I don’t sleep in the middle of the night …”
Wang Dafu walked out of Qiu Yu’s house in a mink coat. He had a rotten belly like a landlord, which deepened the villagers’ bad impression of them. However, when he saw the situation upstairs, he waved his hand and shouted, “Good housewife, come on, jump down and let me see if it’s black ears. If it’s pink ears, I’ll let you go!”
“Brother Wen! Where are you? Quickly come out and take care of it …”
Shen Yanwei shouted angrily. However, before he could finish his sentence, Chen Guang walked out. He immediately rushed over and said excitedly, “Brother Wen! Look at your subordinates. They came to town less than two hours ago to tease women. Even if they were young ladies, they couldn’t bully others like this!”
“Yo ~ These thighs are really white, right! What’s your relationship with them …”
Chen Guangda dug his ears and walked over carelessly. However, Shen Yanwei’s expression changed. Seeing that Chen Guangda’s attitude seemed to be condoning his subordinates’ evil deeds, he could only suppress his anger and say, “It doesn’t matter. The house they rented is something I just bought. They are all pitiful people who escaped from the Fairy Lake. You can’t bully them like this!”
“Are they pitiful people? If they were pitiful people, I would be a beggar …”
Chen Guangda sneered with disdain. He stepped on a strong man lying on the ground and pointed at him, “Look at how thick his arm is. Look at the callus on his hand. This is not from farming. This is something that you practice all day long. These two fellows have slaughtered your entire town!”
“Even if they are machetemen, that doesn’t mean they are bad people …”
Shen Yanwei still looked at him anxiously, However, Chen Guangda hugged him and pointed at the two women upstairs. “You took care of their business, right? But you’re not surprised that such a beautiful girl would come to this poor place to do business. Even if all the men in your town take care of their business every day, it wouldn’t be enough for them to make up for it, understand?”
“I don’t understand!”
Shen Yanwei shook his head inexplicably. Chen Guangda could only wave his hand upstairs. A soldier immediately smiled sinisterly, “Master Guang! These two little ladies are desperately drinking wine for us, and they even gave us free wine to drink. They thought that we drank too much and began to trick us. They really treat us as big-headed soldiers who don’t understand anything!”
“Did you hear that? These two are just scouts …”
Chen Guangda patted Shen Yanwei heavily on the shoulder. Shen Yanwei immediately opened his mouth wide in shock. Wang Dafu also walked over and said proudly, “Little brother!” “Although our corpse collectors are not considered good people, they never bully women, especially when looking for young misses to not give money. Not even our boss who cleaned the toilet can do it. Furthermore, we’ve been eyeing these two little ladies since the moment we came in!”
“Tell me! Did Sha Daji send you here …”
Chen Guangda loosened his feet and looked at the two strong men carelessly. Unexpectedly, the two of them suddenly twitched violently. Upstairs, the two women hurriedly opened their mouths when they saw this. They took out something from their pockets and wanted to stuff it into their mouths. However, they were hugged by a few soldiers and sneered, “It’s not that easy to turn into a corpse, is it?”
“Roar ~”
The two burly men suddenly roared. The capillaries on their bodies began to turn black. However, the surrounding warriors quickly dispersed. They actually surrounded the two men who were undergoing corpse transformation and shouted, “Open! Open! One bar to five, one to one for two bars, one to ten for three bars, and one to fifty for the big whiteboard!”
“I’ll bet on a bar …”
“Idiot! The corpse changed in 30 seconds. At least two strikes …”
The surrounding warriors actually ran over and began to place bets. They said everything, but the surrounding civilians were scared out of their wits. This group of people surrounded two living corpses that could mutate at any time. They were actually as excited as watching a circus. Their nerves were so big that they didn’t look like humans.
“Go gamble on three bars, and I’ll guarantee you a win …”
Chen Guangda smiled and pushed Shen Yanwei. However, Shen Yanwei was so frightened that he suddenly retreated back. Then, he grabbed his head awkwardly and said, “Brother Wen! I’m sorry, I … I misunderstood you. I thought you were just like those ruffians. I never thought they were scouts!”
“It’s alright! I don’t blame you for this. How can an ordinary person like you understand this …”
Chen Guangda waved his hand carelessly. Who knew that the warriors would suddenly exclaim “wow”. Many people quickly threw out a few nylon nets, and some people shouted, “Master Guang! Something happened! They’ve turned into five-bar jumping corpses!”
“Really? How is that possible …”
Chen Guangda walked over in astonishment. Normal human corpses would never directly turn into five-barred jump corpses. The jump corpses grew slowly from a young age. However, before he could enter the crowd, the warriors had already stabbed the two corpses into a hornet’s nest.
“Holy shit! What a big jump!”
Chen Guangda walked into the crowd in disbelief. The two men had already become more than half corpses. The scales and claws on their bodies looked like the standard five bars. The warriors were also confused as they said, “Master Guang! What exactly happened? Have you seen this kind of situation before?”
“I’ve seen situations that are even more extreme than this, but they’re all caused by the Corpse Devouring Bugs. I’ve never seen a corpse devouring poison turn into five strikes before …”
Chen Guangda shook his head in disbelief. However, the warriors in the small building ran out with two women tied up. However, the leader said seriously, “Master Guang! They didn’t swallow concentrated corpse poison, they swallowed two dark things. Look!”
The captain handed over two small black stones. Chen Guangda’s expression changed drastically when he received them. The dark patterns on the two “small stones” were actually the same as those in the Devil’s Cave, just like the broken stones on the wall of the Devil’s Cave.
After Chen Guangda took a closer look, he stared at the two women and said coldly, “You are not from Sha Daji. Tell me, who sent you here?”
“Hmph ~ Kill us, we won’t talk about it …”
The two women snorted coldly and turned their heads. However, one of them was clearly scared. His legs were trembling like soft noodles. Chen Guangda immediately pinched her chin and said coldly, “Truth be told, I will let you go. But if you want to resist to the end, we, the corpse collectors, have ten thousand ways to kill you!”
“You … will you really let us off …”
The woman trembled as she looked at Chen Guangda. Her companion’s eyes were filled with anger and she wanted to reprimand him, but Wang Dafu knocked her out. Chen Guangda nodded and said, “Don’t worry! You’re just two scouts. Even if I kill you, there’s no meaning in it. I will definitely do it!”
“I… we are from Coffin Mountain. Our master is… a Daoist Consonance…”
The woman stammered, but Chen Guangda was rather puzzled. Daoist Consonance was also the Golden Haired Bat King. Originally, he was on the same path as King Liu Hao of the Northwest, but during the Battle of Lower Sand City, he was with Sha Daji again.
“Who exactly is Consonance Taoist Priest with? Why are you helping Liu Hao later, helping Sha Daji later …”
Chen Guangda crossed his arms and stared at her. Who knew that the other party would mutter, “Liu Hao and Sha Daji are working together. However, my master said that they don’t have the same face and heart. Both of them are playing tricks on each other in secret. I… Our mission this time is to steal your key to the Demon Cave and give it to the King of the Northwest!”
“Liu Hao really isn’t dead. How many more people have you arranged here …”
Chen Guangda laughed sinisterly, but before Xiaowei could reply, he strode out from behind and pushed Shen Yanwei over, saying, “You’re mistaken. We caught the remaining spies and confessed to this brat!”
“Brother Wen! I, I …”
Shen Yanwei was trembling like a sieve, and his forehead was covered in cold sweat. However, Chen Guangda said expressionlessly, “No wonder you’re so anxious about these two young ladies. So you’ve been bribed a long time ago. Does that mean that Qiu Yu is also in the same boat as you?”
“No! It was Qiu Yu who gave them up …”
Cong Xiaowei shook her head and said, “They didn’t know what they gave Qiu Yu. They said that they had to take the antidote every three days. Otherwise, she would die and then force her to steal your demon cave keys. However, Qiu Yu just risked her life to tell me about this, so we were able to dig out all these scouts!”
“I’m sorry! Brother Wen, they forced us to eat poison. If we don’t do this, we’ll die …”
Shen Yanwei immediately knelt on the ground with a “putong” sound, crying and shouting as he kowtowed to Chen Guangda to beg for mercy. However, he pulled Chen Guangda aside from Xiaowei and whispered, “Qiu Yu has recognized Gong Li. Gong Li is indeed not lying, but he concealed his other identity. Do you know what he did?”
“An expert from the oil field exploration team …”
Chen Guangda frowned suspiciously, but Cong Xiaowei shook her head and said, “He is not only an expert, he is also the chief engineer of the oilfield project. He was the first to come into contact with the corpse poison, so this fellow is definitely Master Six’s confidant!”
