Trying to pretend to be human today

Chapter 331 The second "Wen Tao"

The bone that was used as a club was swung down hard and hit the target hard on the head.

The dull sound irritated people's eardrums, and Qi Zhuyue wondered if the force she used was too much.

She...she's not killing anyone, right?Or such a young child?

"It's okay." As if he saw the human's doubts, Bai Su answered proactively, "Her head... is still intact."

It was a bit uncertain at first. After touching the little girl's furry head, he rubbed it twice to make sure that no dented holes were made.

It seemed that "Wen Tao" was still on the little girl's body at the moment it was hit.

But it's gone now.

Bai Su released his right hand that was holding the little girl's mouth. As soon as he pulled away, he saw several holes in the tiger's mouth.

There were a few holes prominently visible on the pale hands, but there was nothing but small holes.

There was no bleeding, which was abnormal.

While the humans were not looking at him at the moment, Bai Su waved his hand, and blood streaks came out from the "wound". His actions also attracted the attention of human women.

"Ah...your hand...wait, don't let go!"

Qi Zhuyue was just about to care about Bai Su's wounds, but she didn't expect that as soon as she turned around, she saw the black-haired young man's hands loosening, and the little girl he was holding fell limply, and was about to land on her face.

Not only did she not kill anyone, but she knocked the girl silly and disfigured her.

The human woman dragged her sore body to catch it, catching the little girl's small weight.

It’s hard to imagine that something strange had just possessed the little girl and caused so much harm to her.

A quick look at Qi Zhuyue's arms and neck revealed more and more bruises, and some were swollen due to excessive force. She grinned every time she moved her arms.

Before, all human women had to hold back and have to act out in front of an unknown "little girl".

Now that there was no visible enemy, she breathed a sigh of relief.

The little girl's body was sore and weak. Qi Zhuyue checked the other person's breathing and found that the person just fainted and would not wake up for a while.

Looking at Bai Su again, the black-haired young man's fingers were drooping, and the tiger's mouth was facing Qi Zhuyue.

The human woman looked at it again and again, but still found the wound a bit scary. The sharp teeth simply penetrated the flesh.

After struggling again and again, Qi Zhuyue asked: "Do I need to disinfect it?"

Bai Su didn't answer: "What?"

Qi Zhuyue was worried: "Disinfection, does the little girl's condition just now count...will there be any adverse reactions?"

For a moment, he couldn't understand the human brain circuit, but Bai Su still declined politely: "No, it should be fine."

The black-haired young man took out the gauze he had given to Gao Tianyi from his pocket and tied it twice on his own. The technique was so perfunctory that it could only be said to have covered the wound.

In a place where humans can't see, the hole in the tiger's mouth healed as soon as the gauze was put on.

Next, it’s about the little girl.

Bai Su told Qi Zhuyue that the existence named "Wen Tao" attached to the little girl had escaped.

Qi Zhuyue: "...Although I really want to ask you how you judged it, I want to know even more, why Wen Tao?"

The human woman looked away and landed on the remains of the pendant that had been thrown to the ground by her. The blood belonging to Wen Tao was also flowing there.

It is only active when it is stored in the special pendant given by Gao Tianyi. After it is taken out of the container, it is a puddle of dead matter.

"Because - she is also a 'Wen Tao'."

Bai Su squatted on the ground to pick up the scattered bones. As he picked them up, he couldn't help but salivate.

"What do you mean she is 'Wen Tao'?"

"Well... to put it simply." Bai Su stood up holding the skeleton. He pinched a hand bone and waved it, "Wen Tao's parents gave Wen Tao's name to... Dugong? Anyway, it's almost the same. They The fish that was caught.”

"After a series of bang-dong-bang-bang operations, 'Wen Tao' was born, and it developed some connections with human Wen Tao.

"It took Wen Tao as half of its body." Bai Su said in words that humans can understand, and the hand bones pointed away from Qi Zhuyue and moved to the little girl, "I guess it wanted to swallow you just now, or maybe Let’s talk about Wen Tao, merging half of the body into one...should it be able to increase its strength?”

Although adding more punches means throwing more punches.

Bai Su licked the tips of his teeth silently. It felt bad to hold the tempting food in his arms but not be able to eat it.

How to divert human attention?

Qi Zhuyue frowned. She held the girl in her arms and thought over and over again, trying to complete half of the truth of the matter through the few words Bai Su said.

"Ah... if you say that." She thought of the middle-aged parents she saw when Wen Rongxuan interrogated her after being caught here. "Wen Tao must have been sent away by her parents back then."

Bai Su snapped his fingers: "That is, Wen Tao was sent away back then, and then the one who was sent for human sacrifice became her playmate, the one whose name was not mentioned."

Qi Zhuyue was stunned for a moment: "How do you know? Where is it written..."

Bai Su interrupted: "Guess."

Qi Zhuyue: "...Huh?"

Bai Su: "Otherwise, wouldn't it be strange for people here to write down everything that happens every moment? The village chief's diary mentioned a little bit."

After that, Bai Su ignored this topic.

He held the bones in his arms and pretended to be distressed.

After thinking for a while, he went back inside without saying hello to Qi Zhuyue.

A familiar scene, Qi Zhuyue quickly stood up and followed.

The human woman walked not as fast as Bai Su and still held a little girl in her arms. When she caught up, she saw Bai Su standing in a space she had never been before.

"Ugh..." Almost the moment she stepped into the cave, Qi Zhuyue was so nauseated that she almost vomited, "You..."

Human women would like to ask, doesn’t Baisu feel uncomfortable and nauseous?
The white flesh was lying in pieces, because there were no pieces of flesh, and the pieces of meat were piled together... If you look closely, it seemed that they were not pieces of meat, but human bodies and fish heads pieced together.

They were probably knocked unconscious. They fell to the ground limply, as if they had no bones.

Seeing this, there was still an unpleasant smell permeating the cave. The fish that had been stored for a long time had become rotten and deteriorated, and the fishy smell was intertwined with the rancid smell.

The human woman originally wanted to go in, but the sight and smell smoked her out, as well as the touch of the ground.

There was no need for anyone to step on it. Qi Zhuyue could fully imagine how slippery and sticky it would be when she stepped on it. The mucus that the little girl had carried around her feet seemed to have found the answer.

"Aren't you feeling uncomfortable?" Qi Zhuyue asked, "How did you walk in?"

The black-haired young man who was throwing the bones back into the coffin bent over and stretched out his hands one by one and cast his eyes back: "Spread your legs and walk in with two legs."

"Oh, you want to ask the ones on the ground, have they hatched before?"

"incubation?"

"Yes, they hatched from the surrounding eggs." Bai Su pointed at the four walls, "I didn't even know they were eggs at first. They were so black that they were the same color as the walls."

Not only is it black, there are also moss-like vegetation growing on it, blocking people's view.

"so……"

"So, I put my things away and we can go." "Huh?"

Qi Zhuyue looked at the black-haired young man. The latter lifted the coffin lid with one hand and closed it. He also picked up the nails that had fallen to the ground and performed a hand-hammering nail show.

Qi Zhuyue's hands hurt when she saw it, and she asked belatedly: "That is...?"

Bai Su finished all the movements, looked at it with satisfaction, and replied: "It is the skeleton of dugong 'Wen Tao', but only the upper part."

Bai Su said that the upper part was placed in a coffin by the villagers of Wenjia Village and placed in this cave.

"As for the lower part -" he turned his head and looked towards the distant outside world, "the lower part is the fish tail, which was broken open one by one and scattered and buried in every corner of the village."

This latter part should have been marked on a map, but it's a pity that Baisu didn't take it.

He thought about it, did he leave it to Gao Tianyi?

As far as the monster is concerned, the distribution has already been memorized. The only question is when will he dig up the ground, pull out the remaining fish tail bones and eat them.

Qi Zhuyue could probably think of why the people in Wenjia Village did this. It was just that the dead non-human creatures had unique powers... If it was a human sacrifice, maybe...

But then again, wouldn't it be a good idea to leave this skeleton here?

From the understanding of human women, it would be best for them to get rid of this pile of bones.

After hearing this, Bai Su tilted his head and thought for a moment: "You are right."

Then, under the gaze of humans, the black-haired young man lifted the entire coffin from the ground, and the corners of the solid wood scraped against the ground with a dull sound.

Qi Zhuyue was dumbfounded: "Wait, holding a coffin?"

What responded to the human woman was Bai Su's relaxed movements. It didn't look like he was lifting a heavy object, but something light and made of paper.

Bai Su once again stepped over the murlocs lying around and walked to Qi Zhuyue.

He carried a huge coffin on his shoulders, occupying most of the space.

"Didn't you say you wanted to get rid of this?" Bai Su looked back doubtfully, "In that case, take this out."

But she never thought about taking away the entire coffin!

The human female screamed internally.

Qi Zhuyue thought that the most she could do was take off her coat and use it as a baggage, just like the existence that possessed the little girl did before.

But no matter what, the black-haired young man had no intention of putting it back after he took it out. He took the coffin with Qi Zhuyue and the little girl and walked out.

After walking for a while, they walked back to the platform in the middle.

The candle on the chair in the center is about to burn out, and if you go back further, there will be no light.

When they got here, Qi Zhuyue asked again: "Where are you going next...? Speaking of which, has Wen Tao already..."

Bai Su knew what the human wanted to ask and denied it: "It has not disappeared, so all the bones should be disposed of, or -"

Or do something at the sacrifice.

As the black-haired young man walked, the coffin swayed on his shoulders.

And in the nailed coffin, silk-like white catkins covered every corner of the narrow space, bit by bit eating away at the bones placed inside.

With each step, the bones disappeared a little.

The moment he walked out of the cave, Bai Su first put the coffin on the ground, then turned around and pulled the human woman up from below, along with the little girl she was carrying.

Qi Zhuyue took a breath. She felt that she had walked a long way.

She was unconscious when she was taken in. Now that she climbed out, she realized how deep the cave was and how remote it was.

Where in the mountain are they?I don’t know, it’s hard for humans to tell without a map for comparison.

Bai Su actually answered this question of humans.

He pointed in one direction and said: "That's where the sacrifice is held, and the filled-in lake that Gao Tianyi mentioned -"

As soon as Bai Su finished speaking, the direction he pointed to erupted with a roar like an earthquake. The tremors were so obvious that even the ground beneath their feet shook several times.

"What happened!" Qi Zhuyue shouted in surprise.

……

Climb, climb...and crawl forward.

Gao Tianyi crawled on the ground and crawled forward cautiously in the grass.

He climbed to a place, stopped, quietly opened the grass in front of him, and threw out a small paper man.

Different from the small paper figures cut out of white paper, the yellow one thrown out now looks a bit dull.

The edges of the cut paper are also very rough, causing the paper figurine to stagger when walking, but fortunately it is small and not eye-catching.

After observing the outside through the little paper man, Gao Tianyi found that he did not stray away and no one noticed what he was doing here.

So the young man turned over and sat up, knelt on the ground, and began to dig the soil with his hands.

While digging, the young man muttered Bai Su's name silently in his mind, mostly complaining words.

Ahhh, why is he trying to save people here alone... Wouldn't it be faster for two people to work together?

Why is Sister Qi not here... Isn't she not at the sacrifice site?Isn't it Qi Zhuyue who is placed in the center?

The young man couldn't figure it out for a moment. He drank in the moisture in the air, trying to make himself feel better.

Gao Tianyi's hands were full of dirt. He had no choice but to do it. He didn't have any tools at hand. He used a broken branch to poke at it before, but found that he couldn't do it faster with his hands.

Fortunately, all the land in the mountains here is very moist, and people's hands will sink into it as soon as they grab it.

The soil was peeled away, and the young man took out a few yellow talismans from his body and buried them in them.

After tamping the ground flat, he continued to crawl to the next place.

Gao Tianyi has almost walked around the "lake".

He couldn't fight against so many mutated villagers with his brute strength, so he had to use tricks.

As they walked, the young man was still listening to what was happening on the other side of the altar.

The mayor of Wenjia Village is very talkative, which is a good thing.

The old man stood on the altar and grabbed a harpoon in his hand... It should be a harpoon, right?Grabbing the harpoon, he faced the villagers standing below.

Looking from a distance, it was completely dark.

The village chief was speaking there, just like the leader reading a draft at the company's annual meeting. He had been talking since Gao Tianyi came to find him, and he was still talking when Gao Tianyi had almost completed a circle around the "lake".

From the past of the village to the present of the village, the village chief is inciting the emotions of the villagers.

"Now! She's back."

"Wen Tao is back!"
