Chu Yang's face was grave—corpse energy was not something ordinary people usually encountered.
Furthermore, the formation of corpse energy required special conditions: it must accumulate undispersed within the chest of a deceased person, then, over long years of being sealed tightly, the body would decay, forming the nauseating and pungent corpse energy.
If an ordinary person was infected by corpse energy and did not receive timely treatment or rescue, within three to five days, their body would start to ooze pus. After seven days, their skin and flesh would begin to rot.
In about ten days, they would turn into a puddle of thick liquid.
Seeing Chu Yang's solemn expression, Li Yuru and the surrounding villagers roughly guessed the severity of the situation.
Li Yuru looked anxious, "Chu Yang, what should we do about the villagers infected with corpse energy?"
