Last Totem Novel - Chapter 551
Chapter 551 Rats
However, no matter how the punk beat him and scolded him, that one-eyed man was always staring at him. He was calm and cold, like a sharp sword piercing into his heart. In the end, the hoodlum felt that it was boring. With a “bah” sound, he spat out a mouthful of phlegm. Then, with one hand in his pocket, he carried the black sword with the other and snorted as he left.
Moments later, as the members of the Climbing Tiger left, the alley gradually regained its tranquility.
‘”Miao ~” A wild cat peeked out from the corner and looked around for a while. After confirming that there was no threat, it ran along the wall and quickly rushed towards the garbage bin.
“Uh …”
Suddenly, a weak voice sounded. It immediately stopped and pricked up its ears.
“Uh” Looking at the voice, a bloody hand appeared in its pupils and was moving in one direction.
“Miao ~” The air was filled with a strong smell of blood. It could not resist the temptation of hunger and carefully crawled over. It tried licking the back of its hand a few times. The human in front of him seemed to be very weak, lying in a messy iron rack, unable to move. As a result, it boldly jumped onto the human body and licked the fresh blood that flowed out.
“Uh” The bloody hand slowly moved. After a long struggle, it finally grabbed onto a mottled badge.
After an unknown amount of time, an old engine came from far to near, and then stopped nearby, followed by the creaking sound of the door opening and two sparse footsteps.
“Fresh stuff.” “Be nimble. After moving back for lunch, your stomach is rumbling with hunger.” As the voice rang out, two men wearing cleaner’s uniforms and masks walked to the fire stairs. Looking at the bloody corpse, the two of them sucked in a breath of cold air at the same time.
“Heavens, he died so miserably.” “These guys are really ruthless.” “Alright, it has nothing to do with us. Just ship it back.”
“Eh? He’s actually not dead yet!” A cleaner was shocked to discover that the remaining one-eyed man was still open.
“He didn’t blink an eye. He should be dead.” Another cleaner observed for a while and judged.
“Forget it. Forget it. Do it.” The first cleaner urged. Not long after, the two dragged the corpse out of the distorted fire escalator, carried it on a stretcher, and transported it to the truck.
About fifteen minutes later, a tattered truck arrived in front of an old house on the edge of the apartment block and carried the newly arrived corpse inside. Then, in the underground cold storage, the two old men took over the corpses and placed them on a small bed.
The two old men were skinny, their eyes sparkling, and they wore dirty white coats. Upon closer inspection, one of their left ears was missing, and the other half of their right index finger was missing. They were the most notorious tunnel rats in Crow Town-the left ear and right finger of the corpse carrier.
“Eh? Why aren’t you dead yet?” The left half of his ear soon discovered that the remaining one-eyed corpse was still open.
The right half finger closest to the corpse touched the corpse’s chest and pressed it against it for a while before saying, “My heartbeat is gone. I’m dead.”
“Heavens, I can’t die in peace. Those bastards of the Climbing Earth Tiger are really going too far.” The left half of his ear cursed.
“Without them, what are we going to eat?” The right half of his finger reminded.
“That’s right.” The left half of his ear smiled embarrassedly.
“Young man, the past is over.” The right half of his finger took off the rotten clothes of the corpse as he chattered endlessly, “To us bug transformers, death is not a bad thing …”
“Look at this damned world. Who likes it? Living is suffering.”
“For example, we hide here every day to deal with corpses. It’s bitter and tiring. What’s the point?”
“Young man, when we get down there, we cross the Bridge of Helplessness and drink Granny Meng’s soup. How comfortable it is to forget everything.”
“Oh, you seem …” The right half of his finger scanned the corpse’s face for a moment and said, “It’s a Northern Desolate man.” Then he muttered to himself, “Then let’s switch to another one. In heaven, there are a lot of beautiful girls with round and big breasts …”
“Northern Desolates don’t believe this.” The left half of his ear interrupted him and said, “If they die, they die. There is no heaven or hell, and there is no Nether Underworld.”
“Oh, so …” The right half of his finger nodded thoughtfully and said, “Whatever, go wherever you like.” Just as he was speaking, he suddenly discovered that the old clerk was trying his best to clench his fist-shaped right hand on the corpse, and his entire face was flushed red.
“Aiyo, you’re holding it so tightly. What kind of good thing is it? You won’t let go even if you die. You must have been a miser in the past.” The left ear broke for a long time, but it was unable to break open the corpse’s right hand.
Seeing this, the right half of his finger turned to the corpse and said, “Young man, put down what you need to put down. Money is all outside your body.”
However, his eyes were still wide open, but his eyeballs were motionless and lifeless.
“Smash it with a hammer.” The right half of his finger said dejectedly.
“Alright.” The left ear pulled out a wooden toolbox from under the bed, filled with bloodstained utensils. He picked up a hammer, tried his hand, and smashed it into the corpse’s grip on his right hand.
“Peng Peng Peng!” Three times in a row, blood splashed everywhere, skin and flesh split open, but the corpse’s hands were still tightly clenched.
“Oh my God, who is this person?” The left half of his ear sighed.
“I’ll do it.” The right half of his finger grabbed the hammer and smashed it down.
Moments later, the corpse’s right hand was smashed into a mess of blood and flesh, revealing its white fingerbones. Then, it used a screwdriver and a screwdriver to pry it open.
“What a miser.” The right half of his finger tossed away the tool and said out of breath.
“Look what this is. It’s not gold or silver. It doesn’t look valuable.” The left half of his ear tossed over a bloodstained item that resembled an iron button.
The right half of his finger caught it with one hand and carefully examined it. Judging from the style, it should be a badge, so he wiped his clothes and looked again.
“Wolf Head … Eh … What is that …” The right half of his finger’s eyes were not too good as he handed the badge to the old man.
“What are you talking about? I can’t tell.” The left half of his ear scanned for a while, but he didn’t find anything special.
“From the mouth of the wolf.” Said the right half of his finger.
“Oh, let me take another look” The left half of his ear took out a single eye from his pocket and put it on. “The fire stick … doesn’t seem to be … a knife … a wrong … a sword … right … it should be … a sword …” He put away his glasses and said to his big brother, “Three swords.”
“What!” The right half of his finger suddenly opened its eyes wide and asked, “Say it again.”
“Three swords.” The left half of his ear said carelessly.
“You … you can see more clearly.” The right half of his finger hurriedly said.
“Why are you so shocked? Isn’t it just a pattern?” The left half of his ear asked curiously.
“Look again, hurry up, see clearly, or I’ll slap you!” The right half of his finger raised his palm impatiently, ready to fight.
“Good, good, good, look again” The left half of his ear hurriedly nodded and replied. Then, he took out his shrapnel glasses and put them back on. After observing them for a while, he said, “That’s right, it’s just a wolf head with three swords in its mouth.”
“Ah!” The right half of his finger immediately cried out in shock, and his entire body was stunned.
“Big Brother, what’s wrong with you” The left half of his ear couldn’t help but feel a little puzzled. In all these years, even if the enemy had hit him at the door, he had never seen Big Brother lose his composure like this.
“Northas, this is Northas!” The right half of his finger suddenly shouted loudly. He lunged towards the bed like a madman, staring at the corpse’s face. Then, his trembling hands quickly pulled out the necklace hanging around his neck, opened the pendant, took out a bright red thin tube, and stabbed it into the corpse’s chest.
“Big brother, what are you doing” The left half of his ear hurriedly rushed forward, wanting to stop him, but it was already too late. The translucent blood serum was injected into the corpse at a speed visible to the naked eye.
“Yours, quickly give it to me, quickly!” The right half of his finger couldn’t help but grab the old man and pull the necklace around his neck.
“Big brother, are you crazy? That’s for life!” The left half of his ear struggled desperately. A fire of life was worth 12,000 gold coins, and there was no market for it. Sometimes, even 15,000 gold coins could not be bought. How could it be wasted on a corpse?
“He is Northas, a brilliant fire seed!” ‘”You smelly rat, dirty cockroach, ears-less dog, are you going to use you to light the sacred flame?” Saliva splashed from your right finger and sprayed on the old man’s face, “You smelly rat, dirty old cockroach, earless dog!” “Do you want to use you to light the sacred flame?”
“Ah” The left half of his ear stopped struggling with a puzzled expression, “Is he the legendary … brilliant fire seed?”
“Furthermore, he is an Earth Walker.” The right half of his finger pulled out the old man’s necklace and trembled as he took out the Fire of Life, “Earthwalker, do you understand?”
“Big brother, he’s already dead. His heart is no longer beating.” The left half of his ear hurriedly stood in front of Big Brother and tried to persuade him.
“Even if he can’t be saved, he can still be saved!” The right half of his finger took off the old man and stabbed the needle into the corpse’s chest without hesitation.
“The ancestor is above, please bless him. He is the hope of the vast earth, the redemption of the corpse carrier …” He begged loudly, injecting rich vitality into the corpse.
However, a few minutes later, there was still no movement in his chest.
“Quick, go find the other rats, corpse bearers, frozen corpse bearers, and corpse draggers” The right half of his finger grabbed the old man’s shoulder and shook it forcefully. “Go get them, quickly, quickly!”
“Big brother …” The left half of his ear revealed an expression of embarrassment. “Have you forgotten that I accidentally entered their territory last month and was beaten to the point that even my bones were broken by them?” He said painfully, “Is it possible for me to ask them for the Fire of Life for free?”
“Ask them if they will save or not save an Earth Walker who is in imminent danger.” Said the right half-finger firmly.
“Alright” The left half of his ear hesitated for a while before he finally nodded. As long as Big Brother spoke, even if there was a sea of flames ahead, he would still have to go.
At worst, he would be beaten up …
