When Xu Shuo and the village chief returned to Lao Li's yard, they found that the atmosphere between the two girls seemed to have become much more harmonious.
They even talked and laughed beside the darkness of the abyss.
"Is there any movement in that thing?"
The village chief came over and asked.
The female literary youth looked at the indescribable piece of meat in the pit and shook her head: "There has always been nothing abnormal...but I always feel that this thing beats a bit like a heart?"
Although she was talking to her cousin, the female literary youth was still guarding the pit responsibly.
What's more, she would glance at it from time to time in an attempt to strengthen her resistance. As she kept looking at it, she suddenly discovered that this piece of meat had an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
Those flowing black lines are like blood vessels, so the flesh that vibrates from time to time is the heartbeat, isn't it?
Hearing this, Xu Shuo walked to the pit and looked over.
The thing in the pit was surrounded by thick dark matter, and only the bright red flesh below could be vaguely seen.
This piece of meat had been chopped off by him with a hoe before, but it was not damaged at all. After losing its target of flesh and blood, the sticky and disgusting black substance flowed back into the pit along the handle of the hoe.
This hoe has not been touched yet.
The sharp blade was still resting on top of the piece of meat, while the handle was resting on the side of the sunken earth pit, falling to the ground at an oblique angle.
Xu Shuo reached out and grabbed the hoe that fell on the ground.
But just when his fingers were about to touch the handle, the darkness in the pit rushed over along the hoe!
Xu Shuo quickly retracted his hand.
The darkness halfway up the climb suddenly seemed to have lost its target and slowly flowed back into the pit.
Xu Shuo thought for a while, then stretched out his hand...
The darkness that had just flowed back rushed upward again!
Xu Shuo quickly retracted his hand.
Then the darkness returned dull and dull.
Xu Shuo stretched out a finger and poked the handle of the hoe.
Darkness: Hugh——!
Xu Shuo stopped.
Return flow.
stop--!
Return flow.
stop--!
The three people watching: "..."
The female literary youth was a little confused and a little shocked.
Because the speed of the dark impact is really fast, otherwise the villagers would not have been polluted in an instant.
But now, as a bystander, before she could react, the young man in front of her had already completed the evasion.
He even took pleasure in teasing the abyss...
He is worthy of being the man chosen by the bride!
The female literary youth already admires her from the bottom of her heart!
After the village chief looked at it for a while, the corner of his mouth twitched: "Stop playing, what if it mutates."
Xu Shuo took back his hand unhappily.
"Do you have any ideas?" the village chief asked again.
"The range is one meter. If it exceeds this distance, even if it can detect it, it may not be able to activate the reaction ability, and it will need a medium to come into contact with flesh and blood." Xu Shuo said as he pulled a grass stem from the ground and used the hoe to pick it up.
Grip.
This time the piece of meat in the pit didn't respond.
The village chief thought for a while and said: "If there is no medium, it should be half a meter in the air to work."
This speculation is based on the fact that after the villagers dug up this thing before, the village chief tried to touch it with his own hands, but when it was hanging nearly half a meter in the air, he felt a sense of crisis.
The female literary youth stood nearby, looked at them back and forth, and then said innocently: "So? What next? How to solve this heart problem?"
The village chief shook his head: "It's useless to solve this one, because the osmanthus trees in other places are also polluted, and we haven't dug up the land next to it to check, so we don't know if there are any under the roots of other trees yet.
This thing.”
As for the reason why I haven’t dug it yet…
Because digging a hole may kill a villager.
Wang Tiezhu was unwilling to take action, and the village chief was also unwilling to take action himself.
But if he continues to let the Zhang family's servants die, the village chief feels that he may be overthrown tonight.
Because, after he had expressed his intention to defend Wang Tiezhu against all opinions, after he ordered a servant to go to the cemetery to collect the bodies of the two people last night, after the servant suddenly died tragically in the yard of Lao Li's house, after he took Wang Tiezhu with him
After forcibly cutting down the sweet-scented osmanthus trees of two other families...
People in the Zhang family have also begun to distance themselves from him.
The eyes of the surrounding villagers have begun to look wrong.
The matter has not yet been settled. Losing the power of the head of Guihua Village at this time and being outnumbered will not be conducive to the progress of the operation.
After hearing these words, the female literary youth was a little stunned: "Then what you mean is..."
Enemies on all sides?!
How many osmanthus trees are there in the entire Osmanthus Village?!
More than 180 people!
Even if the door is cut in half, there are still eighty or ninety households. If every household plants an osmanthus tree in their yard, there will be a lump of this thing buried under each tree...
Then they are simply surrounded by an abyss!
The female Wenqing’s expression was already frightened!
Is this mua's script so terrible?!
The village chief nodded with a heavy expression, and then said: "But at least, this thing has no tendency to attack on a large scale yet, and it only ate one family in two days, so as long as we solve the problems in the village in time... it should still be
avoidable."
The point where the village chief paused in mid-sentence meant that the players should end the game as soon as possible.
This way they won't have to be attacked by the abyss.
After all, judging from the progress of the abyss contaminating villagers, it is indeed spreading very slowly, and half of July has already passed a day and a half.
Judging from the frequency with which the bride tortured and killed the Wang family, the story of Osmanthus Village must have taken place within these three days.
Therefore, they only need to complete the task and end the script before tomorrow night!
If you think about it this way, it's actually not a big problem!
Xu Shuo, who was picking up pieces of meat with grass stalks next to him, suddenly lost his thoughts while listening to their conversation.
He seems to have forgotten something...
Oh, I remembered it.
Xu Shuo opened the player's manual and looked at the personal information panel, the title that shone behind the player's name - "Scroller of the Abyss".
To be honest, Xu Shuo had almost forgotten the power that this title could bring in the script because he was used to being chased by the abyss.
Now I just hope...
This group of players can indeed, as they expected, quickly end the scenario before the abyss has fully awakened and launched a massive attack.
…
…
In a village house at the foot of Beishan.
While the players were discussing how to avoid being attacked by the abyss, many villagers gathered in this place and were also discussing what happened in the past two days.
If you look closely, in addition to the Li family, there are also many people from the Zhang family and even the Wang family in the room.
In the room, a farmer with dark skin and a gray square turban wearing a short-sleeved cloth frowned, his expression full of dissatisfaction and gloominess.
He whispered: "The village chief of the Zhang family has really come to Hutu more and more over the years. He usually likes to help Tiezhu. Today, our Li family's attitude is clear about this matter. He is not willing to let go.
.”
At this time, a villager nearby said distressedly: "He also cut down my sweet-scented osmanthus tree."
The farmer continued: "Today is different from the past. Now that witch has started to attack us, the Li family. I can see that in a short time, the entire Osmanthus Village will be destroyed by that witch! Even all of us will be destroyed by her."
Killed!"
"But there's nothing we can do about it..." Someone muttered, their voices full of fear and panic.
"Some time ago, wasn't there a student who came to our village?"
"You mean that girl..."
"I don't believe she has anything to do with Zhu!" The farmer said fiercely: "Catch her and threaten that witch! Let her get out of our village!"
"Is this possible?" The person next to him widened his eyes.
"How about arresting Wang Tiezhu too?" Someone agreed with the farmer and came up with an idea.
"Anyway, we have been forced by her for more than sixty years. So many people have died in the village. What else can we do now? If the witch refuses to submit, then kill those two people in front of her!"
The farmer looked crazy and shouted in a low voice: "Don't let anyone go when the time comes! Just fight her!"
As if infected by his emotions, the villagers nearby couldn't help but get excited. The suppressed emotions made veins pop up on their foreheads. They clenched their fists and shouted with a hint of madness:
"Kill them!"
…
In the yard.
The sweet-scented osmanthus tree waiting to bloom swayed slightly under the gloomy sky, and among the branches and leaves, the beige flower clusters were dyed with a trace of thick black streaks.
