The origin of doom

Chapter 186 Anning Village, Restless

The old woman was silent for a while, and said: "Since the war in the first year of Jingkang, we have been starving. The food is getting less and less every day. In the end, we didn't even have the grass roots to eat. The village head couldn't bear it, so he took the starved son to death. The daughter-in-law was eaten, and the scandal spread all over the village, but no one blamed it, but followed suit..."

"Wait." I interrupted: "The first year of Jingkang? Wasn't that the time when the Northern Song Dynasty fell? It's been 900 years from now."

"Yes." The old woman said with emotion: "We survived the years of war, and when there was food later, we found that we couldn't eat it at all! We would spit it out after eating it! The same goes for chicken, duck and fish! I don't know why, We can only and as long as we don’t eat for a month, we will starve to death!”

The boy asked incredulously: "So, you have lived until now?"

The old woman smiled bitterly: "I don't know if this counts as being alive. We seem to be trapped in a cage. As long as we leave the village, we will die. Moreover, our bodies are also rotting, but at a very slow rate... Later, the village chief taught us the magic trick, and we specially lured passers-by, and after we caught them, we forced them to write letters, contact relatives and friends, and trick more people into Anning Village.”

The boy covered his mouth in shock: "Brother, this is a horror version of a pyramid scheme!"

I waved my hand, signaled the poor man to shut up, looked at the old woman and asked, "Have no one found out that the crime has been committed in the same place for so many years?"

"Of course someone discovered it, but we know illusions. If people from the county government come to investigate the case, we won't do it. They can't find any evidence anyway. In the past few hundred years, there have been a few Taoist priests who have three feet. Cats, there are also masters, but without exception, they all died here...One of the powerful old Taoist priests actually killed my grandson's body with a mahogany sword! Therefore, my grandson became an evil spirit, Let go of the old Taoist's belly! Before he died, he said, it's a pity that he doesn't have the eyes of the sky, otherwise he would be able to see us through."

The old woman glanced at the boy and continued: "After the old Taoist died, we captured his soul and asked him something about the 'eye of the sky'. The old Taoist said that the eye of the sky is very powerful and can see through all monsters and monsters in the world. , It's a pity that it's too rare, and one may not appear in hundreds of years, so we didn't take it seriously. The old Taoist also said that our souls have mutated, and we can no longer be considered human beings, but monsters, cannibals Monster, in a fit of anger, I shattered the old Taoist's soul."

The boy interjected, "Brother, they have to eat one person a month, how many people will they eat in 900 years!"

The old woman hurriedly said: "Actually, we don't like cannibalism very much, but we will die if we don't eat it. Therefore, it is enough for our whole village to eat one person a month."

"Then there are tens of thousands of people!" The boy yelled, "Where are all the bones?"

Before the old woman could answer, I said, "If I guessed correctly, it should have been thrown into the stinky pond behind the village."

"That's right!" the old woman readily admitted.

I nodded: "The last question, you don't necessarily have enough to eat, why do you want to feed Professor Luo?"

"Because...we are not monsters! Therefore, I like to watch living people eat their own kind! As long as you use an illusion to disguise yourself as mutton, they will eat it with gusto!" the old woman roared morbidly.

After yelling, he rushed towards the boy directly!

The poor man hurriedly took out a stack of Yang Talismans from his bag, ignited them, and threw them directly on the old woman's face!Since the old woman's body was covered with cinnabar, she had also pasted a Tiangang talisman, which would burn into a fireball immediately after encountering Yanghuo!But still continue to rush towards the boy!He even shouted in his mouth: "I will kill you, the eye of heaven! lest you harm the people in the village!"

"Small man, run!" I also rushed over!
The old woman is very fast, and the man is in a very dangerous situation!After I rushed over, I grabbed the boy's wrist and ran faster!
Then, such a scene appeared in the woods, two men were running hand in hand, and a big fireball was chasing after them desperately.

In a panic, we ran near the tent!At this time, the members of the archaeological team seemed to have a dispute, but after seeing the situation on our side, they were all stunned.

The old woman howled miserably from being burned, and at this moment, she suddenly yelled: "Go to hell!"

I hurriedly stretched out my foot, tripped the boy, and lay down on the ground myself!Just hearing a 'boom' from behind, the old woman's soul exploded like a balloon, Yin Qi raged, and sparks flew across!Due to the close distance, a lot of sparks got on me and Miao Nan, I hurriedly rolled on the ground twice to put out the fire, but Miao Nan jumped and shouted in panic, "Brother! I'm on fire!"

I hurried forward to help him extinguish the fire on his body, and the boy said with lingering fear: "Brother, does the old lady not let us go even if she dies?"

"What nonsense? What splashed on us was burning cinnabar." I glanced at the boy and said, "Okay, don't talk nonsense. After the cinnabar burns, it turns into mercury. Get out of here quickly."

……

Xu Ningrou came up and asked, "Xiaolong, are you all right?"

"It's okay. Ning Rou, what did you two seem to be arguing about just now?"

After I finished speaking, I glanced at everyone, and they all lowered their heads, not daring to look at me.The same is true for Professor Luo, who scolded us before, but now has nothing to say.

Judging from the expressions of several people, they just argued. . .Seems to be about me.

Sure enough, Xu Ningrou confirmed my guess.

"Xiaolong, we had some disputes just now. Doudou and I said that we would help you, but Professor Luo and the others disagreed, saying that we should run away first, and then call the police. You came back after a short argument."

I glanced at a few people and said, "It's okay, saving your life is a normal person's reaction. Professor Luo, you can leave, but you can't report the crime."

Professor Luo said angrily: "I still have two colleagues alive, why can't I report the case!"

I snorted coldly: "So you still remember that two colleagues were alive, and they ran so fast? Hmph, those monsters can open people's intestines invisibly, and it is difficult for me to deal with them. Do you think the Security Bureau Will it be useful for the employees to come? It’s just a waste of death. You go, don’t publicize things about this place, or you will ruin your reputation.”

I don't let him say it, and I don't want the world to know about the existence of monsters, because it will cause panic.

Professor Luo and others drove away, leaving only Xu Ningrou, Doudou, me and the boy.

Doudou asked: "Hey, Xiao Li, am I loyal enough?"

"Enough loyalty." I replied with a smile, then looked at Xu Ningrou: "Ningrou, can you find a car?"

Xu Ningrou nodded lightly, "I'll find someone to arrange it..."

……

After Xu Ningrou made the phone call, the car arrived just half an hour later. The four of us got on the car and returned to the city.

At the airport, Xu Ningrou asked, "Xiaolong, what are your plans for the future?"

I said solemnly: "There are still two people in the archaeological team who are still alive. I have to sneak into the village quietly and rescue them. In addition, there are dozens of monsters in the village. I am sure that the boy and I are not rivals. But I know people from the Daoist Society, and they will definitely come to help."

"Xiaolong, how about I let the family..."

What Xu Ningrou meant was to send some personal bodyguards from her home.

I shook my head: "No matter how many ordinary people come, it's useless, you go back first, and I will go to you as soon as the matter here is over."

"Then be careful."

I blinked my eyes: "Can't you believe my skills? Besides, there is Jiannan here, and the two of them have a support."

"En." Xu Ningrou bit her lower lip lightly: "Fortunately you came this time, otherwise..."

I smiled and interrupted: "Okay, let's go to the security check, I want to thank me, and I'll talk about it when I come back..."

……

After sending off Xu Ning and Rou Doudou, I said to the boy, "Okay, it's time for us to go back to Anning Village."

"Brother, did we come out just to see off Sister Ningrou?"

"That's right, because I'm afraid that something unclean will follow them."

The boy asked puzzledly: "But, the old woman has already said, they can't leave the village, otherwise they will be lost."

"That's just a one-sided statement, but now I think it's somewhat believable. Well, don't talk nonsense, we have to go back and save people."

The boy protested: "Brother, at least let me eat a bowl of noodles. I haven't eaten yet, and I'm so hungry."

I rolled my eyes, found a noodle restaurant at the airport, and ordered two bowls of noodles. While waiting, I called Zhu Hansong and briefly described the matter. It is very serious, and we will immediately organize manpower to fly over to help!
While eating, the boy was chewing something, and asked vaguely: "Brother, the charms are almost used up, how can we save people?"

I glared at him: "Excuse me? You used a stack of Yang Talisman just now!"

"Brother, I saw two kinds of charms in my bag at the time, one was the Yang Talisman, and the other was the Tiangang Talisman. I remembered it very clearly. You told me that each Tiangang Talisman cost [-] yuan, and I was not willing to do it." Use it, so I took the Yang Talisman."

I almost vomited blood because the cost of a stack of Yang Talismans was 3000 yuan! !

Resisting the urge to put a bowl of noodles on the boy's face, I said in a bad tone: "Hurry up, it's already three o'clock in the afternoon, let's sneak back to the village while it's dark, and rescue him first. . . ”
