Chapter 623: Cave, Queen (5)
The cave was filled with the laughter of satisfied children, but only the sound left in Qin Yi’s ears was of them slurping up the brain juice.
Qin Yi was not the only one feeling unwell. Gao Yan was on the verge of vomiting. If not for Qin Yi holding onto her mouth tightly, she would have screamed out loud.
Much less to say that they were eating someone that she personally knew. A few days ago, they had joined together to stay inside the ghost village, but they had disappeared mysteriously the day before.
The villagers told her that her companions had left, but Gao Yan felt that it was very fishy and chose to stay.
As expected, she found the truth, but the truth was too cruel and disgusting.
She would rather the people be mutated beasts or zombies instead of cannibals.
Feng Qingge’s face was extremely cold as she tightly clenched her fists.
She had seen countless dirty things on Star Continent for the decade that she had been there and in this world for two decades, yet she had never seen such a thing.
It sent a strong chill straight into her heart.
“Are- Are we going in?” Gao Yan finally regained her composure after a long time and whispered.
Laughter and chatter could be heard within the cave. When the human flesh was cooked, Ghost face old man used the ladle to pick up the pieces, leaving the most tender piece for the queen.
Everyone else looked at the remaining pieces with desire in their eyes. After cutting up the meat into many pieces, he handed them over to the villagers.
“Go ahead,” Ghost Face old man sighed as the entire cave was filled with the sounds of happy chewing.
Qin Yi’s group of three felt as though they were in the middle of the coldest winter.
“Qingge, spread out some of your drugs. We’ll take care of the queen first,” Qin Yi instructed, squinting her phoenix eyes.
Moral degeneracy was extremely normal in the apocalypse, but everyone had at least something to keep them going in their hearts. These people inside the cave had lost their humanity just to survive.
She could not let that go.
“Alright.”
Feng Qingge spread out the white powder in her hand and activated a wind spell. In an instant, everyone in the cave fell asleep.
Qin Yi’s group then walked in. But when they saw the complete sight of the cave, they could not help but inhale cold air.
Beside the large cocoon was a row of shelves that hung dead humans. These were the people that had come together with Gao Yan.
In the other corner of the cave were white human bones that could cover the floor of the entire cave if spread out. From this, Qin Yi could tell that they had eaten many humans.
All of the bones were extremely white and had water droplets on them. It could be assumed that the villagers cooked the soup with the bones.
Jugs filled up another corner. When Qin Yi opened them, they were filled with human hands, toes, and unfinished innards.
Gao Yan could no longer endure it and vomited. Her face turned pale white as she vomited so much, only bitter water eventually came out from her stomach.
She did not expect the villagers to be so perverse. They had gathered a lot of supplies as well, but upon scrutinizing it further, all their grains and food stock were all thrown to the corner, no longer touched.
“Why? Aren’t there many supplies here? Why must they eat humans?”
Qin Yi naturally saw the untouched food as well. Her face was extremely cold as she explained, “When a person gets used to cannibalism, they will become addicted. All of this food is no longer food to them. It’s more like weeds or dirt. In their eyes, only human flesh can be considered food.”
