There is a demon in the city

Chapter 35 The Story of Cat Monkey
At this time, there was a sound similar to the hooting of an owl. The sound was very scary, and it made goose bumps all over the body.

The director yelled a few times but no one answered, only saw a black shadow swaying in the distance.

There is a legend that has been circulating in the mountains. Whenever night falls, a monster called a cat monkey comes out to eat people, especially children. The cat monkey is also called Pizi, and different places have different names.

The reason why cat monkeys like to eat children is because children's bones are relatively brittle, and there is a "crack, crunch" sound when eaten.Old people in the mountains often use cats and monkeys to frighten disobedient children.

The more the director thought about it, the more frightened he became, so he pulled another companion and started running desperately.

After running for who knows how long, the two came to a broken mountain temple. Originally there was no temple here, but now they had no time to think about it, so they had to hide inside first.

When I came to the ruined temple, the surroundings were pitch-black, and I could only see a little space clearly with the help of moonlight.

The two panted heavily and looked out in horror, for fear that cats and monkeys would come after them.After confirming that there was no movement outside, the two breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the pillar behind them.

"Brother Juezi (the nickname of the director), will the cat and monkey come?" The director's companion turned pale with fright, and kept looking at the door while speaking.

At this time, the director was frightened and at a loss. It was just dark now, and it was still early before dawn!The only hope is that the family can find them soon.

"It's...it's okay, as long as our family members come, we will be safe." Although the director said so, in fact, he was already terrified in his heart.

The two chiefs cuddled together, not daring to breathe.Only a few crisp sounds were heard from a corner.

"Who? Where is he?" the director boldly asked.

The companion even picked up a stone and threw it towards the place where the sound was made.

Seeing no response, the director had no choice but to shout again: "Who? Come out quickly, if you don't come out again, we can pass."

The director and his companion looked at each other, they stood up slowly, and walked cautiously towards a corner.

After walking a few steps, I vaguely saw a skinny "person" curled up in a corner, seemingly gnawing on something.

At this moment, the moon was being covered by dark clouds, and one could only vaguely see that person with short hair and black clothes, who looked like an old lady.

"Grandma, what are you doing here?" Upon seeing this, the director mustered up the courage to step forward and gently patted the grandmother on the shoulder.

The old grandma stopped what she was doing, and turned her head slowly, her face was full of wrinkles, her eyes were red, and there was still something red at the corner of her mouth.

The old woman said hoarsely, "I'm eating carrots! Would you like some?"

After saying that, the old lady put half of the thing in her hand into her mouth and started chewing it.

The director's companion didn't know it, and thought it was really a carrot, so he stretched out his hand and said, "Can you give me some? I just happen to be hungry."

With a sly smile on her face, the old woman picked up a thin round object from the ground and handed it to her companion.

The companion took it without thinking, put it in his mouth and started to eat.

At this time, the old lady smiled and said, "If you eat my food, you have to give it back to me."

The director and his companions are wondering!Then the moon came out, and the light just shone on the old woman's face.

"Mom!"

The director saw it clearly, this is not a human face, it is clearly a cat face, red eyes, green nose, isn't this the cat and monkey that the old people often say!

Both of them were shocked, only to see the cat and monkey stand up slowly, and said as he walked, "If you eat my "radish", you have to give it back to me, give it back to me."

When the companion heard Maohouzi's words, he quickly threw the leftover "radish" on the ground.

Then in the faint moonlight, the two of them saw clearly that the so-called "carrot" was actually a finger.

The director slowly raised his head and looked at the cat monkey in front of him. The cat monkey wiped the blood from his mouth and murmured: "If you eat my carrot, you have to stay."

The two yelled, and ran outside like crazy, shouting as they ran: "The cat and the monkey are eating people, the cat and the monkey are eating people."

It happened that at this time, the adults at home saw that the children had not returned for a long time, so they discussed asking the strong boys in the village to go up the mountain to search for them together.

Seeing the director running wildly, his family stopped him, and upon asking, they found out that they had encountered a cat and monkey.

The director ran away from another companion while running wildly, but according to the director's account, his companion was already in danger.

There is also a saying in the mountains, whoever eats something from the cat monkey, the cat monkey will eat that person sooner or later.

This matter has become the shadow of the director's life. Until now, whenever the word cat and monkey is mentioned, the director will be in a daze for a long time.

After listening to the director's story, Chang Luo was more sure that it was a cat monkey, but the cat monkey they encountered had become a demon and was naturally more difficult to deal with than ordinary cat monkeys.

After the director heard about the appearance of the cat and monkey, he immediately arranged for people to patrol throughout the city to strengthen security in the city.

Although the arrangements in the city have been strengthened, children are still lost every day, which makes the whole city panic, and no one dares to go out at night.

In order to deal with Pi Zijing, Zhou Diandian decided to call together the little demons of the Demon Alliance to discuss strategies.

Chang Luo has a general understanding of Pi Zijing's life rules, and that day and night is an important track for Pi Zijing, and a strategy emerges spontaneously.

In the middle of the night, the few pedestrians on the street made the night even more silent. A woman on the street was carrying a baby who was less than a full moon behind her back, and was holding a seven or eight-year-old child in her hand.

The mother and son were walking on the street, and the woman looked back from time to time. After all, the story about the cat and monkey became more and more evil.

Perhaps out of a state of fear, the woman deliberately talked loudly to her child, perhaps thinking that this would give her courage!
"Mom, why do we go to grandma's house in the middle of the night! People in the city say that cats and monkeys are active at night, and they also eat children." The child asked his mother, and his innocent appearance was very pleasing.

"This is a city, not a mountain village. No matter how daring cats and monkeys are, they can't come to the city to harm people." The woman paused and continued: "Actually, cats and monkeys are used to deceive children. If you are disobedient, your grandma will often scare me with cats and monkeys, and even say that you will feed me to cats and monkeys! Hehehe!"

"Oh!"

The child was dubious, staggered, and followed closely behind his mother. The mother and child, who had no idea of ​​the danger, were walking forward.
