Midnight Restaurant

Chapter 240
When the man turned his head, I was startled. There was no human flesh on the whole face, it was all snake scales...

"I'm going, what the hell is this?!"

The old man with snake scales all over his face stared at me. Only then did I realize that not only his face was covered with snake scales, but this man's eyes had also become the same snake pupils as when Xiaoya transformed.

"Master, he's not a ghost..." Xiaoya shook her head at this moment.

"What's that?" I asked.

Xiaoya shook her head.

Just as we were talking, another incident surprised me again!Yin Banxian suddenly pulled me from behind and shouted: "Boy! Be careful!!"

"Ah?" I was taken aback, looked forward from the corner of the eye, and startled me. The snake-faced monster suddenly stuck out its tongue at me, then opened its bloody mouth, and suddenly stretched out its long neck. It was really like a snake. Same, bit me right at me!

Fortunately, Xiaoya was quick, and grabbed the weird man's chin, and threw the weird man's head to the ground heavily, and then there was a flattening sound!It is estimated that Xiaoya used too much force, half of the tongue was broken, and the blood spattered all around!

This time I reacted quickly, pulled Yin Banxian back immediately, and escaped a catastrophe!

Why is it said to be a catastrophe, because when the blood of the monster was built on the surrounding stones, small holes were burned out of the stones, and the blood of this thing is strongly corrosive!

"My God, Xiaoye, what kind of monster is this? How can the neck stretch so long? Look, this blood..." Yin Banxian was a little frightened.

"Although it's strange, it's still within the scope of my acceptance... When I heard you tell the story before, I thought there would be something scarier than this in this village... Let's go, I was killed by Xiaoya , let’s get in the car and be careful, don’t have such monsters around.”

With that said, I turned around and got in the car.

But I was wondering, is this thing that looks like an old man in the back and a monster in the front, is it a villager in the snake village?Why did it become like this?

Does it have something to do with the snakeskin tree that was cut down and regenerated?

When I was guessing, Yin Banxian also hurried into the car, and then asked me: "No, it's so dangerous, didn't you say so earlier?"

My face was full of black lines: "Why did you say it earlier? Besides, didn't you ask me for this?"

"I mean... as I said earlier, you can come by yourself. What kind of trouble should I cause you?"

To be honest, sometimes, I want to kill Yin Banxian, if he is not Guoer's adoptive father...

"Hey, hey Xiaoye, tell your uncle, which one is more dangerous than what happened at the hot spring villa last time?" Yin Banxian looked at me nervously.

I thought for a while: "The matter at the hot spring villa is actually not too dangerous, it's just that the ghost was caught by the ghost-headed coral... or the blood-headed coral? I forgot, anyway, the monk who was made ordinary by the broken coral couldn't see her, That's why it's powerful. That's why it's average. As for this matter...it's hard to say now, let's go to the village first, I hope it won't be too troublesome."

Hearing what I said, Yin Banxian regretted it even more.

But there is no way, it is impossible for me to send him back, and he is sure, I have to pull him as a back, so I will die.

Soon, Xiaoya drove to the village. The name of the snake village was randomly chosen by me because of the snake skin tree.In fact, this village originally had a name, it was called Zhaojiacun, and more than half of the villagers were named Zhao.As for Uncle Zhao who died before, that is, the one with the strange tree in the yard, he was called Zhao Erye by the juniors in the village, and Zhao Er by those who were of the same generation or higher than him.

When we entered this Zhaojia Village, there was no one there, because it happened to be noon when we arrived, and the weather was very hot before, but when we arrived outside the village, at the foot of the mountain, the weather became inexplicably cooler. By the way, let someone pass by and let him take us to Zhao Erye's residence to see the ghost tree.

But after waiting for a long time, there was still no one.

In the end we decided to look for it in the village.

But at the moment when we were about to enter the village, the three of us suddenly heard a cold voice: "Don't...don't come in! Don't come in! Don't come in!!"

I was so startled, I looked up and saw an old man standing at the entrance of the village, holding a cane in his hand, beating hard on the ground.

But I had already stepped in with half a foot at that time, and because I was curious, I still had something to do, so I didn't care about the old man's heartbreaking yelling, and went straight to the old man: "Master, what are you calling?" Woolen cloth?"

The old man's eyes were bloodshot, he stared at me wide-eyed: "It's over, it's over, there's another one... and can't get out... What a crime..."

I came in, Yin Banxian and Xiaoya naturally followed, Yin Banxian came to me and asked me: "What is this old man doing?"

I shook my head.

I don't care what the old man is doing, let's ask the business first, so I stepped forward: "Master, what... I want to ask you something, that is, do you know where Master Zhao lives? If you know , can you take us there, please?"

"What...why? You, you not only entered the village...you also went to Zhao Er's old house?"

"Yeah, you know?"

"You... you should stay here honestly, find a family, do nothing, maybe you don't have to die..."

I frowned slightly. From the old man's yelling and the few words he said now, I could tell that a lot of things should have happened in this village.And the villagers also felt that these things had something to do with the tree felling that day.

"Master, don't be nervous, we are here for this matter, is it convenient for you to tell me? There is nothing in the village recently, why didn't you let us in just now?"

"For... this matter?"

The old man looked at me, obviously caring about what I said.

I nodded.

Although the old man didn't quite believe what I said, it seemed that there was no one to count on, so he told me all the things that happened in the village in the past few days.

From it, I got a message.

The village is now closed.

Why do you say closed?Because no one who enters this village can get out.

This matter, specifically speaking, starts from the second day after the tree felling. At that time, a few workers died for no reason, and then the engineering team did not dare to work, and a large number of them were withdrawn that day. Of course, there are still a few left.It is estimated that there is something unfinished, but in short, he did not leave.

But what happened before happened after all, and everyone was panicked, including the villagers of Zhaojia Village.

So when the first wave of people left the village, afterward, some villagers and people from the previous construction team wanted to leave the village, and felt that this place was evil.

"...Huh? From the construction team? But I heard that all the members of the construction team who stayed in the village have disappeared." Hearing this, I looked at the old man in wonder.

The old man sighed: "It's not missing... No... Listen to me."

Originally this was strange, many people wanted to leave, and the second wave left were the remaining members of the construction team and some villagers, but no one expected that these people left in the morning, and that night, there would be someone at the entrance of the village A large number of corpses were found, all dead beyond recognition, exactly the same as the snake bites mentioned earlier!There are dark poisonous spots on the body!
Who is this who killed them?Send the body back again?

The people in the village were stunned, and from that day on, all the people in the village, whether they were the original residents or those who came in later, as long as they left the village, within a few hours, their bodies would definitely appear at the entrance of the village. It can't be wrong, sometimes, it's not at the entrance of the village, or at the original residence of that person, it's very weird.

"You mean, as long as you enter this village, you will be killed if you leave?" I asked.

The old man shook his head: "No...it wasn't killed by a person, it must not be a person...not a person..."

Well, probably not people.

But who?What happened to the snake-faced old man I saw outside just now?
I'm a little puzzled.At this time, I looked at Xiaoya. Her beautiful eyes were always wandering back and forth in the village, seeming to have no purpose.

"Okay, uncle, I'm probably done with the situation, you can take me to Mr. Zhao's residence first, do you think it's okay?"

"You...you really want to go? I advise you not to go...it all started from Zhao Laoer...that is an ominous place, the tree there is a ghost tree...you really can't go."

The old man refused repeatedly.

Seeing that he was talking insanely, I felt that I couldn’t find out why I asked him. I gave Yin Banxian a look, and the old magic stick comforted the old man. If the old man doesn't agree to help, then find someone else.

But I kept things simple. In this village, almost everyone is talking about it.

Finally, we found a little girl, sixteen or seventeen years old, very cute, similar to Yin Guoer, named Zhao Huanhuan.Of course, she looks cute, but her mental state is not very good.It was scary to see some of us strangers, but fortunately we could communicate, and the girl finally agreed to lead us.

But on the way, an accident happened.

A bell at the entrance of the village was rung. Zhao Huanhuan's face changed when he heard the bell. At that time, other villagers ran out of the house. Later, I inquired with Zhao Huanhuan, and I realized that the clock was supposed to tell the time in the village. use.But when something happened, no one dared to leave the village to start, and this became a reminder to find the dead.

Now, as soon as the bell is rung, it means that a snake-bitten body covered in purple-blue poisonous spots has been found in the village.

I was actually quite curious about what the corpse looked like, so instead of asking Zhao Huanhuan to take us to see the tree immediately, I went to the gathering place of the villagers to see what the newly discovered corpse looked like.

As a result, I was dumbfounded when I went.

There really was a corpse, exactly like the one in the rumors. I saw the black air around the corpse, but it wasn't this that confused me, but the clothes of the corpse...

This dress is exactly the same as the snake-faced monster that Xiaoya killed on the way!
Moreover, his face was also broken.

But the difference is that this person has snake bite wounds and poisonous spots on his body, and the skin on his neck has not been destroyed, but there are no snake scales that we saw during the day!
