When all of these things were gathered together and piled up together, it looked extremely disgusting.

The corpse of the fox was located right at the graveyard. Was there something strange about the fox's death?

”Come on, you can't tell much from the corpses. Just follow me, I'll show you something else.”

After saying that, Liu Qing brought Lingling and I to walk around the grave area. In this circle, we actually found a lot of dead animals, including foxes, rabbits, and wild chickens.

These corpses looked rather scattered, but they all had one thing in common. They all looked like they died in a manner that was very similar to humans …

Fear.

A bone-deep fear. What did these animals see before they died?

Even I felt that it was ridiculous to ask such a question, but wasn't it even more ridiculous to ask what was happening in front of us right now? Why did this happen?

I bitterly smiled, and it was at this time that Liu Qing said to me:

”Let's go, up the mountain.”

I exhaled a breath of white air while Lingling panted heavily and dragged me along. The few of us walked with great difficulty, and the further we went up the mountain, the thicker the snow.

Moreover, in some places, the snow was so cold that even the slightest mistake could cause it to shatter and fall into the snow.

This feeling of having never lived in the countryside of the north was something he could not experience. Every step he took could be said to be filled with fear and trepidation.

Along the way, we saw almost all kinds of corpses, dozens, hundreds. The more we walked up the mountain, the more bodies we saw.

Moreover, these corpses were all dried up to a similar degree. It seemed that the time of death was about the same.

In other words, a few days ago, something happened on the mountain, causing a large number of animals to die within a few days.

Moreover, the corpses of these animals were all piled up here. Only the ants and flies were slowly eating them, but no other animals treated them as food.

Just what had happened on this mountain?

The more corpses I saw, the more shocked I became. But in the end, the shock slowly turned into numbness. I didn't know what to say anymore.

The scene in front of me was way too astonishing. It had almost exceeded my knowledge range.

It was one thing for humans to die, but even the animals in the mountains were not spared?

Seeing my astonished expression, Liu Qing pointed to a wolf's corpse on the ground and said:

”I've seen all of these bodies. They died in a very strange way. They didn't have any wounds on their bodies. They weren't killed by any other animals, nor were they killed because of the weather or any other reasons.”

As we spoke, we had already walked to the location of the father's grave. Since he wasn't a villager who lived in the village to begin with and didn't have any relatives, he didn't have any burial grounds in the village.

This kind of person couldn't be buried in the entire village's great cemetery, so I found a better place for him in the area above the cemetery.

He himself was a person who liked peace and quiet. This way, it should also be very suitable for him.

Right next to my foster father's lonely grave, I saw a very clean area. There was something that looked like a small house with a plastic quilt wrapped around it.

Beside the small house, there was a pile of ashes.

I was stunned for a moment before my expression turned strange.

”Is this your place? You sleep here every night? ”

To be able to create such a thing on the mountain, and to be beside my foster father, other than Liu Qing, who else could it be?

Hearing my question, Liu Qing nodded his head:

”Yes, comfortable, warm, and your father to accompany me.”

Lingling softly asked behind me.

”Big brother Liu Qing, aren't you afraid?”

”What's there to be afraid of? Isn't there the old man accompanying me? I have nothing better to do than to talk with the old man and see if he can marry my daughter off to me. ”

If others were to say these words, they would definitely make me feel disgusted, but since Liu Qing's character is like that, there was nothing I could do even if I disliked him.

It's been a long time since I've been to see my foster father's grave. There are too many strange things happening on the main mountain.

At this time, I saw Liu Qing walk to a place not far away from the grave of my foster father.

”I happened to see it when it died.”
