Simulation of all things: starting with copper skin and iron bones

Chapter 267 People are like ants, their lives are like grass!
Wei An didn't listen to a single word, as if he was listening to a folk story.

But what a middle-aged uncle said next caught his attention.

"Those people all disappeared at night. The strange thing is that at night, there is fog in Datong Town. It's a very cold fog. People walk in the fog and disappear as they walk."

"Fog..."

Wei An frowned slightly, turned his head, and asked, "Uncle, what you said seems to be true. Have you ever seen that kind of fog?"

The middle-aged uncle slapped his thigh and said, "I'm not bragging, I've actually seen it.

The night before yesterday, I happened to pass by Datong Town. When I entered Datong Town from the outside, there was no fog from a distance, but the further I walked into the town, the more foggy it became.But when I walked out of the town, there was no more fog outside. You said it was evil or not? "

Wei An could tell that the middle-aged uncle was not lying.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation!
After breakfast, Wei An decided to go to Datong Town to take a look, not for anything else, just the word "fog" aroused his vigilance.

call!
The 96-mile journey came in a flash.

Datong Town is actually not big, with a population of only seven or eight thousand. This place is not rich, and the whole town doesn't even have a decent mansion.

Wei An entered the town and walked on a dirt road full of potholes. The surrounding houses were disordered and overgrown with weeds.

As they were walking, a group of sheep rushed out from the corner, bleating, followed by an old sheep herding man in ragged clothes, smoking dry cigarettes while walking, puffing clouds, leaving sheep manure all over the place.

At this moment, it is the time when the sun is rising.

"It's so deserted, is there no one in this town?"

Wei An had walked almost half of the street, except for a few elderly people sitting at the door basking in the sun, he didn't see any young adults or children.

Not long after, Wei An found a small restaurant with a closed sign on the door, and an old lady inside was sweeping the dust with a feather duster.

"Auntie, the monk is being polite."

Wei An stepped forward, raised his palm, and saluted.

The aunt poked her head out, looked Wei An up and down, immediately rolled her eyes, put her hands on her hips, and said angrily: "Where did you come from, the wild monk, didn't you see that my restaurant is about to go bankrupt? Let's go, don't be here. This begging, I can hardly support myself."

Wei An laughed and said, "Don't panic, auntie, I'm not here for alms."

After hearing this, the aunt's expression softened, and she asked, "Then why are you here?"

Wei An asked: "The little monk happened to pass by Datong Town, but found that there were almost no people in the town, and it was deserted. What's the reason?"

Suddenly, the aunt replied: "Oh, you don't know, our Datong Town has been hit by evil spirits, and people in the town have disappeared one after another, and many living people have disappeared without a trace.

No, some people said that the missing people might have gone into the mountains to hunt for treasures, lost their way, and couldn't get out, so everyone ran into the mountains to find people. "

Wei An understood, and said with a smile: "The little monk is proficient in some thaumaturgy, maybe he can help. Can you start from the beginning and explain in detail?"

"Okay, idle is idle anyway."

The aunt nodded and sat down, "About nine or ten days ago, at the east end of the town, there was a butcher who sold pork. The family of seven suddenly lost five of them, leaving only one old and one young.

The family seldom left the town, and they didn't visit relatives on the day of the accident. The five people were still sleeping at home before dark, and disappeared inexplicably the next day.

Two days later, the butcher, the old and the young, and the neighbor's family of four, six of them all disappeared!
These six people were even more sinister. They should have been having dinner when they disappeared. They had just eaten one-third of the food on the table, and then they suddenly got up and left, as if they had gone somewhere. "

Wei An interrupted: "Is there any trace of fighting at the scene?"

"No."

The aunt waved her hand, "The people in the yamen have inspected the scene carefully, and there is not a single drop of blood, no trace of damage, and everything is in good condition, even valuables are not missing."

Wei An listened carefully, thoughtfully.

"Eleven people from two families disappeared all at once, and everyone in the town panicked, but what happened after that was even more sinister and terrifying."

The aunt's face was solemn, and she raised her hand, pointing to the south for a while, and pointing to the west and north for a while, "In the next few days, people disappeared every day, and the missing people spread all over the town, all in the same situation, and people were still at home during the day , suddenly disappeared at night.

Alas, the people in the town were almost scared to death, and they dared not sleep at night. Now everyone is exhausted physically and mentally, panicked, and business can no longer continue. "

Wei An understood, and pondered: "Well, everyone disappeared suddenly at night, and there was no movement during that time. Oh, by the way, did it fog up at night?"

"Fog?"

The aunt thought for a while, then suddenly slapped her thigh, nodded and said, "Hey, it's true! If you don't tell me, I didn't pay attention to this point. In the past few days, it's foggy when it gets dark, and the fog is quite thick."

Wei Anlue pondered for a while, and asked the aunt for the specific addresses of those who disappeared, then he turned and left, and soon came to the east end of the town.

A dirty pork shop came into view.

The door was ajar, Wei An walked straight in.

The butcher's house is quite big. The front yard is a shop that slaughters pigs and sells meat. All seven members of the family live in the back yard. There is a well and a shady old pagoda tree in the yard.

At first glance, they are just ordinary people.

Wei An turned around and didn't find anything unusual. After that, he simply opened the transparent world to observe carefully. He looked at the houses, trees, wells, and underground several times.

Still, nothing.

Then, Wei An went to the neighbor's house next door, and immediately saw the dining table mentioned by the aunt. No more, no less, six people.

The food on the table has long been rotten and moldy, but it is not difficult to imagine the picture of six people sitting around the table eating. Before the meal is finished, something happens suddenly, and then all six people disappear.

Wei An turned and left, and went to check on the other houses one by one.

In the end, there was nothing!
"Interesting, I couldn't find any clues."

Wei An frowned slightly, his mind was turbulent, he thought about it, and listed three possible situations.

Possibility [-]: All the missing people left by themselves;
Possibility [-]: A master appeared and took them away;
Possibility three: non-human disaster.

Accordingly, he adopted the method of exclusion and analyzed them one by one.

First, running away from home is often a small number of individual behaviors. Under normal circumstances, a person will not leave his home for no reason, let alone abandon his family at will;
Second, it may be that some evil master haunts and hunts mortals to practice evil skills, but it stands to reason that evil people are more interested in young people or children, and they will not even arrest the old and frail.

The first two possibilities are very unlikely.

"Could it be..."

Wei An thought of something, couldn't help but shuddered, then he turned and left Datong Town, disappearing in a flash.

In the blink of an eye, it was evening.

A large number of people came from afar, returning to Datong Town with tired faces.

"I have searched all the places in the mountains where people can hide, and there is not even a ghost."

"I've said it a long time ago. It's impossible for them to run into the mountains. There are many wild beasts in the mountains. Are they hungry and looking for death?"

"If you want me to say, this thing must be done by human traffickers! Cao Tamiang's human traffickers!"

"Oh, my wife is gone. Do you think she disliked me for being poor and ran away with another man?"

"Brother, don't think about it. Is sister-in-law that kind of person? Will she leave you and your son alone?"

……

Everyone walked all the way, discussing a lot, and then went back to their homes to fill their stomachs.

It was getting dark.

All households, doors and windows closed.

Boom!Boom!
At this time, a patrol team appeared in the town. All members were martial arts practitioners. They were divided into groups of three, and they beat gongs while patrolling.

Time passed little by little, and the night was getting darker.

Before I knew it, it was foggy!
Pale white mist appeared, filled every street in the town, engulfed every building, and became thicker and thicker, to the point where you couldn't see your fingers.

At this moment, the sky above Datong Town!

A figure appeared from behind a cloud. It wasn't Wei An. He overlooked the entire Datong Town with an incredulous expression on his face.

Just a moment ago, there was no fog at all in Datong Town below.

But only after a while, the whole town was shrouded in fog.

What is extremely strange is that the fog only appears in Datong Town, and there is no fog outside the town.

Before this, it was as if a fogger had leaked somewhere in the town, spewing out mist and covering the whole town.

Wei An's body flickered, and he swooped down suddenly, as fast as a ghost, but quietly, without making any movement.

Arriving at the sky above Datong Town, Wei An suddenly stopped, and at this moment, the edge of the mist was under his feet.

The mist rolled around.

Under the penetrating world, Wei An's eyes immediately penetrated the mist, taking in everything at a glance.

"This mist is really an ordinary mist..."

The pale mist is not poisonous and has no other extraordinary qualities. It is just a mist formed by water vapor, which is ordinary.

Even so, Wei An still dare not be careless.

Immediately!
The Yuanli shield is on!
The red stripes are on!
After doing double protection, Wei An plunged into the mist, and then he swam back and forth in the mist like a fish in the sea.

Soon, he reversed the direction of the mist flow and diffusion, and found the source of the mist.

The picture that came into view was actually an old well!

The location of this old well is just next to the butcher's yard, less than 30 meters away!

Whoohoo!
The old well was full of fog, and a large amount of fog continued to come out.

Suddenly, a hand came out of the well!
That hand landed on the edge of the well, and then the other hand stretched out, and the two hands were lifted up, slowly revealing a head, with disheveled hair, covering the face.

The next moment, that head lifted up, revealing half of the body, and as soon as he lifted his feet, he crawled out of the old well.

That is clearly a person!

Look at the figure, she is still a woman!
Wei An's eyes widened slightly, and he held his breath, carefully observing the woman who climbed out of the well, and the sense of sight of Sadako couldn't help appearing in his mind.

The woman looked around, as if to make sure that no one was peeping at her, and then she took a step, walked up, did not walk a few steps, and jumped up in vain, her jade feet touched the roof lightly, and floated forward lightly , silently, without alarming anyone.

Wei An followed, his body skills became more sophisticated, and the woman in the well didn't notice him at all.

After a while, the woman stopped on the roof of a house and looked down.

Wei An has already seen that there are five people in this family, an old man sleeps in the master bedroom, a couple sleeps in the side room, and a brother and sister sleep in the small room next door.

The old man and the brother and sister were already asleep, and the couple just lay on the bed, not daring to fall asleep.

At this time, the woman made a movement, she rolled over, opened the window which was obviously fastened lightly, entered the master bedroom, and jumped onto the old man's bed.

The old man fell into a deep sleep, unaware of it.

The next moment, the woman's mouth was torn open, extending towards the sides, gradually turning into a bloody mouth, and then bald!
He actually swallowed that old man into his mouth!
The upper body of the old man was in her mouth, and his legs were dangling outside.

Then, the old man seemed to wake up, his legs began to struggle, kicking the air indiscriminately, but the woman raised her neck and slipped, and the old man slid in, into the huge mouth of the abyss.

After the woman swallowed the old man, her mouth quickly closed back, but her figure didn't change at all, her belly didn't even bulge up, and she kept her perfect and graceful figure.

"Ah this..."

Wei An blinked, feeling an indescribable shock in his heart, but what happened next opened his eyes even more.

After the woman swallowed the old man, she opened her mouth again and spit out the old man's clothes and scarf with a puff.

Then, her body trembled.

I saw her body change, some parts were dry and suffocated, some parts were swollen, deep wrinkles appeared on the skin, and the hair became gray.

In an instant, she changed from a young woman with a proud figure to an old man with loose skin and wrinkled skin.

It was the old man who was eaten by her, exactly the same.

It wasn't over yet, the woman picked up her clothes and put them on, tied up her hair with a headscarf, got out of bed, and coughed deliberately.

"Father, what's wrong?"

In the side room, the couple heard the movement, and the middle-aged man immediately asked.

The woman who turned into an old man replied in the voice of an old man: "I'm thirsty, I'll get up and drink a glass of water."

The middle-aged man was a filial son, so he immediately got out of bed and walked to the main room, brought a kettle and a bowl, and walked into the master bedroom. He saw the old man sitting by the bed, and poured a bowl of water over to him.

"Father, you drink water." The middle-aged man said, he didn't realize that there was something wrong with the old man in front of him.

The old man took the bowl, glanced at the middle-aged man, then gently put down the bowl, stood up, stretched out his right hand in vain and grabbed the middle-aged man's neck.

The middle-aged man left his feet off the ground, looked at the old man in astonishment, and made a whining sound in his throat.

But in the next moment, the old man's mouth quickly tore apart and became very large, and he stuffed the middle-aged man's head into his mouth.

Suddenly, the old man stopped swallowing and turned his eyes sideways.

At some point, a young man appeared beside him, wearing a monk's robe, looking at him with interest.

The old man turned pale with shock, stared straight at Wei An, and froze in place.

"Woooooo~~~"

The middle-aged man with his head in the old man's mouth burst out with a strong desire to survive and struggled frantically.

The old man looked at Wei An, neither eating nor not eating, and after a while, he spat out the middle-aged man and threw it on the ground.

Bang!
The middle-aged man hit his head against the wall and passed out.

"Da Lang, what's wrong?"

In the side room, the voice of the daughter-in-law came.

The old man replied: "It's okay, I knocked down the kettle."

After that, the daughter-in-law didn't respond.

The old man stared at Wei An for a moment, and said, "Who are you?"

Wei An smiled faintly: "I'm sorry to disturb your meal, little monk Xu Zhu."

"Xu Zhu, Master Xu Zhu!!"

The old man's expression changed drastically, and the muscles all over his body swelled rapidly, then he jumped, smashed open the window at a very fast speed, and fled outside.

His body changed again, and soon turned into the original woman, using the cover of thick fog to scurry around on the street.

Soon, she ran back to the old well and stopped abruptly.

The woman looked up, staring involuntarily.

Wei An was sitting by the old well, with his legs crossed, taking a good rest, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

Seeing this scene, the woman's body trembled slightly, with a look of fear on her face.

"Is this well your lair?" Wei An asked at this time.

The woman was silent for a while, and replied: "Well, I came to this town to look for food, and temporarily lived at the bottom of the well."

Wei An said inwardly that sure enough, he has already seen the bottom of the well, and there is no "Crystal Palace" as imagined, the well water is clear, and the bottom is full of sand.

The woman lurks at the bottom of the well during the day and comes out to eat people at night.

Her identity is about to be revealed, monster!
The amazing thing is that in Wei An's transparent world perspective, her body structure is the same as that of a human being. Even when she becomes an old man, it is only the adjustment of the external outline, and she maintains a human body from beginning to end.

Wei An asked: "Dare to ask the girl's name?"

The woman blinked her eyes, shook her head and said, "I don't remember. I used to be a human, but now I'm not. According to what you said, I used to be a blood warrior, but after losing control, I became a man-eating monster."

"Amnesia?"

Wei An nodded and asked, "Does it mean that all bloodline warriors will lose their memory after losing control and turning into monsters?"

The woman shook her head again and said: "I don't know, because I don't know other monsters, I woke up suddenly half a month ago, and I was in a ravine when I woke up.

I don't remember who I am, I don't know where I am, I don't remember how I appeared in that ravine before, I just feel endless hunger, I want to eat people very much, that's it. "
