zombie land

After Huai Sang left, Likatus relaxed, only to realize that the back of his neck was covered with sweat. At this moment, his senses regained consciousness, and he felt sticky and uncomfortable.

"Son, are you literate?" The old man named Molinde asked Licutus after staring at him for a while.

Likatus nodded, and replied in a low voice, "Well, but not many." Without the zombies by their side, the two of them undoubtedly felt a lot more relaxed.

"Come in with me!" Molinde said, "There are not many children who can read now, and they are all shouting and shouting, but not a single big character." So saying, Molinde seemed to be quite emotional. That slick beard.

Taking a closer look, Licutes found that although Molinde's beard and hair were long, they were well-groomed. They were very different from those old men in the village, but somewhat similar to Bliss.I can't help but get close to my heart, as if a wise person is like this for a long time, clean and tidy, giving people a sense of the fragrance of a flat book.

"In our village there is a teacher who is about the same age as you, and he taught me a lot." Licutes followed the old man forward while talking, but his eyes never left the books on the bookshelf, many, many books The words printed on the books are all unknown to him, and it feels strange but novel. This may be the first time since he came to the land of zombies. Licates has the idea that coming here is also a good idea.

The old man squinted his eyes, looked down at the surprise and longing in Likatus' eyes, raised his hand and lovingly touched Likatus' head, "There are not many children like you these days? Don't you think that reading and writing Is it boring? If you meet a zombie, you can’t reason with him. Why don’t you fight? Don’t you think so?” Mo Linde has met too many children who think that they are just useless, but today they meet such a love of knowledge. But he couldn't help asking, maybe after so many years, he didn't want to question what he pursued at the last moment of his life.

"I like books, can I call you teacher?" Ricotes raised his eyes, saw Mu Lin nodded kindly, and continued, "I can learn a lot from books that I don't know, maybe it's difficult to deal with zombies. Hands and feet are important, but ever since I came here and learned that there are so-called intelligent zombies, I know that force alone is not enough, because they not only have strength but also wisdom. And these books can give me wisdom, maybe when I have If we have enough wisdom to surpass zombies and know their weaknesses, we humans will not be so passive." Licutus spoke slowly, but it was extremely reasonable, and Molinde couldn't help nodding.Because he never thought of learning the weaknesses of zombies from books. Now that he thinks about it, he only wants to pass on this so-called human culture when he reads books. It seems that he is not as good as a child, but rather short-sighted.

"You want to deal with zombies?" Molinde lowered his voice.

Likatus nodded, "I know, it's very self-defeating." He lowered his eyes a little shyly.

"No, no, child, your idea is very good, but here, it is called the land of zombies, you have to be cautious about everything, before you want to do anything, you must want to keep your mouth shut, understand?" Molinde touched Licutus explained with a low head.

Licutus nodded.

"Come with me, kid. Although I don't have much to learn, I've been locked up here all these years. It should be enough to teach you for a while!"

Molinde's words are modest. The royal family's book collection room was the largest and had the most books in the empire at the beginning. With the attack of zombies, the culture stagnated, and naturally there were no new books. People who love books and knowledge are the only and only paradise...

The days that followed were like a life in which a mouse fell into a rice jar for Licartes.Literacy with Morinde every day and listening to him tell some old stories, customs and rumors.Obviously, there is a huge gap between Molindre and Bliss in terms of talent and knowledge. Compared with Molind, Bliss may not even be able to reach the surface.Merlinde's conversation was very funny, and often it was just a small story that made Licates think deeply and made both of them laugh.

Today Molinde told the story of noble knights, the meaning of 'chivalry'.

Lycates was fascinated, 'A knight is one who is courteous in peace and bears the brunt of the battle. Hearing such words, Licates' spirit was even more lifted, he thought, maybe his ancestor was such a noble knight.

"I want to be this kind of person in the future." Likatus said vowedly, the expression on his face was full of longing.

Molinde rubbed Likatus's soft light brown short hair with a light smile and said, "Yes, one day you will realize your dream." Molinde squinted his eyes and rubbed Likatus' head with a smile, My heart is full of sighs.He didn't know who instilled the lofty thoughts of nobility in the child in front of him, making the child hold such high expectations for the blood of nobility.But if this child understands the truth, what a real nobleman is like, the bravery and upliftment built up in his heart may collapse in an instant!Molinde shook his head, the truth!Even if he didn't say anything, those history books would eventually tell the whole story, and he didn't know how to praise the historians at that time, even if it was a secret order, it was quietly recorded in a corner of the history books.

"I don't remember asking you to chat about the so-called dream here." A chilly voice came to my ears just as Licates was talking to Molinde.

Molinde was facing the door of the bookstore. When he raised his eyes, he saw that Xuesang had entered the house through the door. When did he enter?What did you hear?Molinde didn't know, he just looked at the zombie's blood-red eyes inexplicably and couldn't help shaking.Those are a pair of eyes that can see through everything, they are a pair of eyes that have gone through everything... Blood red, but it seems that it can never see through the depths, Molinde knows that this is a monster created by zombies that surpasses human existence '.

"Leader." Molinde bowed respectfully.

Licutus also stood up, but his body trembled involuntarily. He was afraid that the zombie leader would recognize him, so he remembered the order of the 'meat man' back then.He still... can't die!

Turning around, when he was facing the blood funeral, Likatus bowed his head deeply, with fine beads of sweat on his forehead, "Boss." The timid voice has changed, Likatus is now I just feel that even my breathing is so clear, and the rumbling heartbeat in my ear seems to be telling myself that if I'm found out, it's over...

"Huh?" A slight voice of doubt made Delicutus almost startled, but it was a pity that the blood funeral didn't give him a chance to startle.Because he had already stretched out his hand with sharp nails, clasped Likatus' chin, and let the nails sink into the soft skin of Likatus' jaw.

A trace of blood slowly slid down with Licates' panic.

A long scrutiny is like torture for Licates.Xuesang's thin lips moved slightly, "I remember you 'noble blood' you should become a 'meat man', huh?"

To put it simply, it was like a death sentence was pronounced for Likatus. When Xuesang let go of his hand, Likatus could no longer stand, and collapsed on the ground in despair.

Molinde on the side saw that the situation was not right, and wanted to help, but he didn't understand what happened, but when he heard the word 'meat man', he roughly understood it.It is the life of this child!but why? 'Meat people' are generally strong adult men, and if they are children, they will collapse and die after being sent.If it is said that this child offended the blood funeral?impossible!Although Xue Zong was the leader of the zombies, he didn't have the excitement that the zombies had when they saw humans.In fact, he is more like a machine, without any emotional fluctuations, just doing things according to the best path set.At least in all these years of his life in Zombie Land, he has never seen that real anger.

"Chief, this kid is literate. I was also teaching him some other knowledge just now. He is very smart and learns quickly. You also know that this chronicle project is huge, and the old man alone cannot finish it. Look at the old man I'm getting old, and I'm not far from death, if no one takes over this history book, I'm afraid it will be abandoned halfway." Molinde said emotionally and rationally, he knew that the blood funeral was a reasonable zombie, otherwise he would not have been there for so many years It is impossible to live in peace here.

Xuesang looked down at the shivering child on the limp ground, and said after a while, "I hope next time I won't hear words like dreams and knights. As food, you should recognize your identity." Xuesang said so, then With a flick of the long blood-red robe, he walked away.And that cold voice seemed to carry an echo for a long time, permeating the silent study room.

Molinde was also stunned for a long time. If he read correctly, he did see the anger in Xuesang's eyes just now. What did this child do?It actually angered Xuesang...

"Get up, child, get up, it's okay." Molinde comforted Licates, who was slumped on the ground, "It seems that we will be more careful in the future, and you should also be careful. Many words cannot be spoken casually." I said it. I thought this bookstore was safe, but I didn’t expect the blood funeral to come...you hurt the child..."

Licutus endured the tears swirling in his eyes, and nodded. The pain in his heart had already made him feel the bloody wound on his jaw!Seeing his dream so close, he realized in an instant that everything was just a dream, just a story, and the distance was still unreachable.
