Chapter 50: Yaks in the Lake
As the night deepened, and the two of us lay on our own, I put my hands under the back of my head and looked at the sky beyond the hole, when the shadow of Hessewood passed through the hole, silently. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info I carefully propped myself up, made up the picture in my brain, and thought of the old demon of Montenegro in "Journey to the West".
I listened with my ears pricked up, and suddenly I heard a terrible scream coming from a distance, followed by a "thud", and fell to the ground in a dull voice. I stood up in amazement, and now a figure shrank back in the darkness, and it was Lisana, who also heard the movement.
Among them, I didn't sleep, and the others were either snoring, or breathing heavily, so I whispered to Lisana in the corner, "I'll take a look, don't be afraid!"
Lisana nodded, and I pulled the improvised deadbolt open, and the door creaked, cutting through the silence.
A cold wind blew outside, and the stars hung high in the blue night sky, and thin clouds covered the moon. I shrunk back, pulled the cloak on my body, and carefully went out, in front of me, about fifty meters or so, there was a huge black monster that was violently dealing with something, I gasped, and I could faintly hear a weak chirp.
The huge black image was draped in two huge feathers, and it tore at the people on the ground like a ferocious wolf.
I swallowed my saliva and quickly retreated into the room, the sound of the door closing was especially abrupt in this environment, and I leaned my back against the door and took a long breath, the tension attacking my brain.
Realizing that something terrible had appeared outside, I decided to open my mouth to wake up the person who was still asleep, and just as I was speaking, something hit the ground again, and the sound of falling to the ground was very close to us, as if it was at the mouth of the cloister, I turned around in a daze and took a step back.
"Horn...... Horn ...... "There's something crawling up in the cloister, and my mind is so confused, but I can still realize that it's a person! Something that can fly has dropped a person! He's not dead!" Just as I was thinking this, there was a "bang", and the people outside slapped the door with difficulty, and I jumped up in fright, and Baocai muttered in a daze, "Who...... Knocking on the door in the middle of the night......" he said, turning around, and the loud snoring sounded again.
My heart was so tight that I didn't dare to make a big noise, for fear that the person who was knocking on the door outside would know that there were people inside. I thought to myself, "If we survive the night without a sound, maybe we won't have to face our fears." Thinking of this, I leaned closer to the wooden door with bated breath, and soon, I heard a faint voice: "Inside...... Is there someone in there...... Save...... Help...... "The man's voice was very weak, as if he had come to another world.
I was so scared that the thought of saving people changed to caution, and I said, "You...... Who are you...... Outside...... What's going on out there?"
The man said quietly, "Hurry up...... Open the door...... I'm in...... Come in and ...... you"
At this moment, I didn't open the door immediately, the wind outside, and strange cries filled my ears, the contradictions in my heart were overwhelming, the man couldn't wait, although his voice was weak, but it revealed eagerness, a little crazy eagerness, he said with a commanding tone: "You open the door for me...... Hurry!"
The sound of him banging on the door became louder and louder, and the old wooden door shook, and Bao Cai turned over and complained, "Who the hell is it! I was scared to death in the middle of the night!" he sat up, and I looked at him in the dark, and the moonlight above his head hit his face, and his expression changed suddenly, and finally he realized something, and stammered, "Who is standing there?" outside...... What's going on out there?"
"It's me......," I replied quietly.
"Childe!" Baocai wondered, "This ...... Who's banging on the door?"
Just as he asked, the treasurer who was lying on the side sat up straight, and he walked past the treasure to the door, and said, "Get out of the way, I'll come!"
As he spoke, he pushed me aside and opened the door cleanly, and the person outside was already weak to lie on the door, but as soon as the door opened, he lost his balance and fell forward. Seeing this, the treasurer quickly grabbed the man and said to me, "Close the door!"
By this time, everyone had woken up, and I quickly closed the door, and the room was filled with a strong smell of blood. We didn't dare to light the fire, so we had to bring the wounded into the moonlight.
In the faint light, I saw a shocking scene, this man's abdomen was blood-red, flesh like ploughed mud, one of his hands was not even part of his arm, all the blood was soaked in his body, he grabbed the sleeve of the treasurer in infinite horror, and said, "Palm...... ......Before he finished speaking, the master suddenly took out a short knife and cut his throat.
Bao Cai said: "What are you doing! He is not dead yet!"
Kushi said without any emotion: "Sooner or later, you have to die, instead of suffering, it is better to be relieved as soon as possible!"
As he spoke, a strong wind swept through the hole, and some old smell was blown up by the wind, and then something stood on the wooden roof, and the beams and pillars on it sank.
Wang Bajian shouted: "Grandpa thief!
Lisana hid in the corner and said, "Is it ...... Could it be the monsters that Daddy said, the monsters that can fly? They really exist!"
The old ancestor took out the red copper scimitar and said, "No matter what it is, the person who comes is not good, this roof won't last long, we have to get out!"
I said, "Just now outside, I saw a huge shadow, and if I want to go out, I will kill myself!"
The top beam "squeaks...... ...... squeaked, and it sank a little more with the terrible ghost screams outside, and at the same time, the dull sound of falling sounded again, this time there were a lot of them, and my heart twitched, if the monsters were holding people, then where did these people come from?
The commotion outside was getting worse and worse, and the silence just now was completely broken, and the sound of wings flapping, like a bed sheet blown up by the wind, "puff ......".
There are a lot of monsters...... We may have reached their lair, the reeds are their habitat, and those people are their food!
My brain is getting bigger and bigger, and I suddenly remembered a book I once read, which recorded a local bird in Loulan, it is called "Lake Yak", it is said that they have the habit of migrating, and live by preying on large animals, which is the evil among birds, if it is really this kind of bird, it is amazing, it is a bird demon!
There are more and more shadows passing through the holes in the roof, and there is a sound of pecking and scratching on the top, and they have spotted us!
Everyone leaned against the wall of the wooden house and looked up to see death descending. Seeing that we didn't go out, these monsters wittily dropped a corpse from above. The dead are heavier than the living, and the monster uses the corpse to make a suicide bomb, and the corpse smashes into the already fragile roof, smashing into a larger hole, and the man hanging from the wooden beam is obviously not dead for long, and his blood still rains with a warm breath.
The big guy gasped, and before he could recover his senses, a huge monster suddenly plunged into the hole, and it eagerly drilled into it, trying to go inside and hunt us, and soon another monster joined in, and for a moment, the roof noise continued, making people shudder.
The old ancestor reacted and said to us, "Quick, get out!" and as he spoke, he took out the red copper and pulled the door open.
The Kushi was the first to run out, followed by Lishana and the little priest, and as we all ran out, the hut collapsed with a bang. The huge monster flapped its wings and flew up, and under the moonlight I saw that the monster had a human face, and it was the kind of sharp-beaked monkey cheek, and they hovered in the air, and the sky was densely packed, like a swarm of bats, with a pair of claws the size of a human head.
