Everyone was surprised. The person they thought should be lying in the grave was now standing in front of them.

"No, he's not." Yin Ming said suddenly, and everyone realized that he was still holding a bouquet of white flowers in his hand, obviously he was not a dead person, at least no dead person would hold flowers to worship him.

Seeing this, everyone rekindled hope, Yunshuang took back the weapon, and then noticed that the old man was disabled, he had no left leg and replaced it with a piece of rusted metal.

His face was wrinkled, his hair and beard were all white, his pupils were cloudy, his limbs were as dry as rotten wood, and his crippled body made him unsteady in his steps. At this time, he was sweating profusely and panting, but even so Holding the white flower in my hand tightly, I walked towards the grave step by step.

Yin Ming stepped forward to ask what was going on and whether he knew the owner of the tomb, but Yun Shuang stopped him and motioned him to be quiet.

The old man bent down hard and pulled out the weeds in front of the tomb with his chapped hands. He fell back several times due to improper control of his strength.

Seeing this, Yin Ming wanted to step forward to help, but was stopped by the old man. He looked up suspiciously and only heard him say, "He said that he didn't want anyone to have sympathy and pity for him, because he didn't deserve it and so did I. The most appropriate ending for us is to die here, condemned by thousands of people."

What he said made people puzzled, but since he was rejected, Yin Ming had no choice but to stand aside quietly. The old man kept tidying the grave with his hands, with tears in his eyes.

No one understood why he was crying, but the kind of grief pierced his bones. He knelt on the dirt and put his head on the tombstone, tears falling continuously in a continuous line.

It wasn't until a long time later that the old man stumbled up and said to Yunshuang and the others, "Let's do it."

"Do it?" Yin Ming was a little strange, and the old man said strangely when he saw his reaction, "Didn't you come to kill me and let me make atonement?"

"Atonement?" Yunshuang didn't understand what was going on with these two people, but she could only ask along the way, "What crime did you commit?"

Hearing this, the old man shook his head vigorously and broke down in tears, "I destroyed everything and took their lives. Countless people and animals died because of me."

Things are getting more and more confused, Yunshuang can only return everything to the beginning, starting with the simplest question, "Can I ask what is the relationship between the owner of this tomb and you?"

Hearing this, the old man straightened up, his eyes fell on the thread-bound book in Qi's hand, "It's been a long time since I saw this thing, I thought it should have been destroyed long ago, but I didn't expect it to stay until now." Everyone looked quietly and saw He seemed to be trapped in memories, tears poured out more and more, apologizing again and again and falling into reincarnation.

"Stop apologizing, tell us what happened here?" Yun Shuang asked, and the old man finally stopped blaming himself and nodded, and then said, "I am the grandson of that man, and the one in the tomb is my grandfather."

"What?" The answer was so unexpected that even Yunshuang found it inconceivable, while Yin Ming was thoughtful. In fact, he found it strange from the very beginning that everything in that room exudes an old atmosphere. Whether it is a black and white photo or a thread-bound book, it doesn't look like something in recent years.

However, this strange sense of incongruity was completely erased by Qiu Yanxiu in the photo, because his appearance was no different from the present, so it was taken for granted that the time of the photo was not too far from now.

"Sure enough." Yin Ming was not surprised by the result, and Qi also nodded. They have been with Qiu Yanxiu for four years, and they have never seen his nails or hair grow even a little bit in the four years. He seems to be placed in another In the world, where there is no flow of time, there is only eternity.

In other words, he is immortal and has eternal youth, which is enviable enough, but it also means that this scourge can really last for thousands of years.

"What kind of existence is he? Your appearance is at least 40 years older than the grandson in the photo, but why hasn't he changed at all?" Yunshuang asked. This is the first time he feels that he is so urgently seeking the truth.

"Did you mean 'he', is he still alive?" The old man was agitated. Although he hoped to hear a negative answer, Yunshuang had to tell him the truth. What to do about it.

"Yes he's still alive, and if nothing else he'll live longer, long enough to send us all into the dirt."

The old man's complexion was a bit ugly, but he could only sigh long afterward, "You are really tenacious, even if the world is riddled with holes because of him, can he still live with a smile?"

Yun Shuang didn't know where to start, but saw the old man raised his head and said, "No, it's not his fault, it's my fault. If I hadn't made such a dangerous thing, if I hadn't begged, this wouldn't have happened. tragedy."

The words fell into a cycle again, and the old man also realized the confusion of everyone at this time, from the initial narrative of the incident.

"It was a night nearly 40 years ago. An injured patient was transferred here. He was dying and there was no possibility of surviving. However, the people above strongly ordered his grandfather to save him, because he carried extremely important information that could not be lost. That person is Qiu Yanxiu."

The old man opened his mouth slowly, and Yun Shuang nodded at this. He had already guessed this and was not surprised, so he said, "Under pressure, you injected a medicine into him, and as a result, his almost immortal body was destroyed. .”

"Yes, at that time my grandfather developed a healing potion named T90. He didn't fully understand the effect of that potion, but those people pushed too hard, so my grandfather had no choice but to take the risk." The old man continued.

"Didn't you think about making up for it after you found out?" Yunshuang frowned. Although all this was reasonable, the damage caused was too terrifying.

The old man shook his head when he heard this, "The people above ordered my grandfather to deal with it secretly, but I found out about all this. I begged my grandfather not to kill him when I was a child, because it was not his fault."

Speaking of the old man lowering his head, he didn't want his own words at that time to cause the situation today, if he knew that man's wolf ambition, why would he plead for him.

The old man continued, "At that time, in order to avoid being searched, we hid him for seven years. However, as time passed, that incident was forgotten, and he became restless, so there was a fierce conflict between us. .”

Speaking of this, he looked at his leg with a wry smile, and tapped on it with his crutch, "From then on, I can only live with this old man."

"He fled?" Yunshuang asked, and the old man nodded, "Yes, he fled, and took part of the formula of T90, and tried to complete it."

Everyone was silent, Yunshuang turned her hand to look at her wrist, only to see the dark green partly visible on it, the potion that the man injected into him was exactly the test product he researched.

Yunshuang put down her wrist, and immediately realized a terrible connection. This is the place where T90 was born in Qiu Yanxiu's past, but it was also the place where the zombie virus broke out, and the virus conflicted with the medicine that used T90 as a template. By chance?

"I want to know how the zombie virus was created and why..."

Before Yunshuang could finish speaking, the old man's face became more and more ugly. He lowered his head as if he was trying his best to suppress the trembling of his body, until he spoke after a long time.

"My grandpa's biggest mistake was to plant a factor of instability into the world, but I completely pushed the world to the end. In order to make up for one mistake, I made another bigger mistake."
