Chapter 16: Truth and Illusion

Snakes!

Cheng Li only heard one sound, but it already made his scalp tingle—how many snakes would there be such a dense sound?

"Kazuko, Wako wake up!" Chengli cried out, his keen instincts making him feel extremely bad. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

"Hmm, what's wrong, Kasaku-sama?" Kazuko still looked sleepy-eyed, and she couldn't open her eyes with a strong sense of sleepiness.

"It's dangerous, you ......" Seori originally wanted her to hurry up and find Inutakemaru, but it suddenly occurred to him that he had been lying here all day after being injured, but Inutakemaru hadn't come to see him once......

I don't know if he knows that there is something wrong with those arrows, if he knows, then if he doesn't come to see himself, he either has a ghost in his heart, or he is ashamed, but if he doesn't know, then what is the reason, the two of them were still talking together last month.

Chengli thought about that incident again, in the past few months, Inutakemaru has become more and more fond of sleeping.

Chengli doesn't know what's going on, he's just an average IQ, and it's impossible to know everything just by relying on these little things.

Kazuko also felt the sound coming from outside the house, and in just a few seconds, the sound had changed from the sound of a drizzling rain to the sound of a pouring rain.

Listening to these sounds, which were completely made by the friction and collision of insects and snakes crawling, Kazuko suddenly woke up from her daze, and her little face suddenly turned white and blue.

Chengli's face also became very ugly, and the voice had already reached the outside of the house.

Fortunately, I didn't go out, Chengli was a little lucky, if I had gone out just now, I was afraid that I would have run into those snakes and insects directly!

But you can't just wait here, Chengli lifted the quilt, and Hezi hurriedly came over to support him, holding Hezi's body, Chengli barely stood up, but his body was still weak, and his legs kept trembling.

"What should I do?" Kazuko's forehead was a little sweaty, and under the inability to exert force, Chengli hung almost her entire body on her body, feeling Chengli's weakness at this time, and her words were full of helplessness and fear.

This fear even made her forget that the two were clinging to each other naked at this time, and Chengli completely ignored this matter, and she was also extremely scared in her heart.

Among the most cruel punishments in ancient times, there was a snake cave, listening to the dense sound outside, I was afraid that it was not much better than the snake cave, and when I thought of their slippery and coiled appearance, Cheng Li couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

"It's okay, I'm here. Chengli comforted her a few words, but even he didn't believe it very much, just with this body that couldn't stand on his feet now?

However, with the comfort of Chengli, I felt that there was someone to rely on by my side, and Kazuko's nervousness was significantly eased, in this case, she couldn't care about the reality that Chengli had no force at all, as long as someone coaxed her.

Chengli looked around, the doors and windows were closed, after all, the temperature in the mountains was very low at night, and it was only early spring, and it had not yet warmed up.

This made Chengli's nervous heart relax a little, I hope the doors and windows are tight enough, just listening to the sound outside to know how many there are, this is not something that human power can block and resist.

I can only resign myself to fate, and I feel helpless for a while, this is the first time I have prayed to heaven? Why has nothing happened for so many years, and why have so many things happen as soon as I come over?

There were already some dark shadows on the window, and by the moonlight, Chengli saw that it was a snake and a spider, and Chengli hurriedly pressed Kazuko's head on his chest, this kind of scene should not be seen by her, otherwise it will become a nightmare for her life.

But the sound that was almost close at hand had already made Kazuko's body tremble, and the whole person was buried in Chengli's body, and Chengli could only touch her back to relax her, and at the same time let her heart not beat so fast.

Seeing that the window was slowly covered by countless snakes and spiders, and the moonlight could not penetrate it, Chengli's right arm holding Kazuko gradually became stronger, and now he only prayed that the window was strong enough and that there would be no holes in the roof.

The sound has begun to spread from the roof to the back of the house, but there are still dense sounds in front, it is simply endless, just listening to this sound is already numb to the scalp, and now these voices have not stopped, when will it sound?

Suddenly, there was a series of screams in the distance, full of panic and despair, and it looked particularly terrifying and eerie against the background of the dense sound of snakes and insects crawling, and Kazuko suddenly grabbed Chengli's waist tightly.

Chengli felt the fear in Kazuko's heart at this time, of course, he himself was taken aback, and he also hugged her, hugged her in his arms, and the two of them hugged each other, and they didn't dare to take a mouthful, for fear of alarming so many insects and snakes outside the house.

The screams kept ringing out, and Cheng Li carefully discerned the information in the screams, and his whole heart hung in the air, for fear that those snakes and insects would break in and become the ones who screamed.

"Don't ......"

“…… Save ......"

"Snake ...... Spider ......"

“…… There are scorpions, and ......"

"Help......

The screams continued, but Seori and Kazuko relaxed, because after all this time, the sound finally thinned out, and the dense crawling sound that was almost frightening to the point of madness finally slowly disappeared.

The screams in the distance were gone, but there was a cacophony of curses, apparently people were beating the worms.

"Already, are you okay?" Kazuko still buried herself in Chengli's arms, and only dared to ask in a low voice, like a gnat.

"Well, it's okay already. Cheng Li exhaled a sullen breath in his heart, and his whole heart relaxed all of a sudden.

It was at this time that he felt that the body of the person in his arms had become hot, and he also felt the smoothness and tenderness of Kazuko's skin, which made his heart flutter and feel that there was a fire burning in his heart.

"Ahh

Chengli felt a pity, the room was too dark, there was no light at all, nothing was seen, but Chengli felt that she had entered her own bed.

I felt a little funny in my heart, but Chengli didn't follow in, he didn't know if it was really safe outside, he stood under the support of Kazuko for a while, and was stimulated again, Chengli felt that his body had regained a little strength, and he could barely walk, although he was a little cold naked, but he just dispersed the fire.

The loud voices in the distance made the fear in Cheng Centrifuge dissipate a lot, and people are really social creatures.

Chengli quietly pushed open the window and slowly looked outside, the moonlight sprinkled in the courtyard like water, illuminating everything clearly and clearly, and everything in the courtyard was very clear.

It was very messy, the originally clean and tidy ground was now a mess, there were traces of snakes crawling everywhere, and the neat lawn had fallen east and west.

There are still more than a dozen black spiders left in the courtyard, as well as a few snakes, which seem to be dead, they should have just been squeezed to death, after all, you know that there are many, many of them just now.

As soon as he thought of this, Chengli couldn't help but feel numb in his scalp, a chill rose in his back, and he shivered.

"Hezi?Hezi?" At this moment, the door in the distance was suddenly opened, and Chengli saw Ashou rushing over directly.

I&@%#!, if she could see this now?

Chengli hurriedly lowered the window and ran back to the bed, Kazuko had been secretly watching Chengli, she also heard her sister's voice, and hurriedly turned over the quilt to let Chengli get in at once.

Amori's footsteps are getting closer and closer, and at this time, Chengli found another thing, he is now sleeping on the same bed with Kazuko, what if ......

Before Chengli could come up with any excuse, Ashou knocked on the door with a "bang, bang!", "Is Kazuko there?"

Something was wrong in the busy, and Chengli only thought that the door had been locked at this time, sighed leisurely, grabbed Kazuko's little hand, and motioned for her to speak.

"Here, sister, what's wrong?" Kazuko's voice was full of shyness, and Chengli was anxious when he heard it, and Ashou could definitely hear something.

"Are you alright?" But Ashou only cared about his sister's safety at this time, and she didn't hear the shame in Kazuko's words at all.

"It's okay, what's wrong?"

"You ...... just now" Amoru wanted to ask Kazuko if she had heard anything just now, but listening to her sister's current tone, she didn't seem to notice it, and she had just woken up.

That's right, sister, she has been caring about Jiazuo all day today, she must have been very tired, thinking of this, she was relieved, fortunately sister she didn't hear, otherwise I don't know what to be scared of.

"Nothing, you sleep. "Fortunately, Kazuko was not woken up by that voice, and I was almost scared to death just now, but fortunately, the house was strong enough, and my mother was also by my side, so I ......

Alas, how could such a thing happen in the cottage? It seems that there are monsters at work, and I hope that Lord Teng Wutori Zhong can solve it.

Ah Shou looked at the dead spiders and snakes in the yard, and immediately thought of the overwhelming sound before, and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, and walked quickly to his bedroom, tomorrow I have to let those maids dispose of it as soon as possible.

Mamoru didn't notice that a faint cyan mist was wafting from the corpses, and she inhaled a little unconsciously.

"What's going on? Why are these things so unbeaten?"

After the initial fear, everyone slowly adapted to the dense scene in front of them, although the number was indeed very large, but after all, it was only snakes and spiders, and at most a few hundred-legged and scorpions.

After the peasants got used to it, they all picked up sticks or stones that could be found everywhere and threw them at the insects and snakes.

It was at this time that they discovered that these things just looked terrifying, and the dense number did not exert their due strength at all, and some long snakes were directly entangled together, and were beaten to death by everyone who rushed forward and beat them to death.

Some people have already found that something is wrong, why are these insects and snakes more numerous, and they have become weaker, and they are still very stupid, and they don't know how to escape after being beaten.

"Whatever it is, just hit it!" Thinking about it, is it possible to hope that they will become smart and powerful? In that case, I am only afraid of these people......

Thinking of this, they hurriedly waved the sticks and stones in their hands and smashed them fiercely.

It was a very lively night, and even children of a few years old took branches and whipped the long snakes and spiders, and after a long time, almost a few steps to the corpses of the snakes and insects, the venomous insects, which were already few in number, slowly receded before people's eyes and retreated back into the mountains.

It was the turn of the guards on duty today to climb up to the high sentry post as soon as they saw the insects and snakes attacking, and when they saw the dense and boundless number, they directly threw down the spears in their hands, hugged each other and trembled.

When they heard the cheers of the people, they slowly stood up and looked at the ground with half of their heads out of the guardrail.

The corpses of insects and snakes were all over the ground, and the common people gathered together to cheer and scream, and this is the end?

Looking at each other, they didn't know what had happened just as they were in a state of panic.

Soon the next day came, everyone was beaming, last night after so many insects and snakes, but no one was fine, and the few injured were all scared and twisted their feet when they ran and jumped.

But when they opened the door, they were immediately shocked - where were the insects and snakes piled up in the grass on the road?

They gathered in unison, and everyone could see the astonishment in the eyes of the others.

Is it just a dream? So many people have a dream? They don't know what else to explain, but the marks on the ground that were smashed last night are still there!

"Hallucinations! must be hallucinations!"

When everyone heard this, they all looked over, and some people began to have a slight smile of disdain on their faces, the person who came was an old man, and he was usually quite prestigious, but he was one of the few people who sprained their feet last night.

There are still many people who remember how scared he was at that time.

But more people still think deeply, after all, he is old, and it is normal for people to be timid, and so many years of experience have also made his knowledge broader.

Hallucinations, and indeed only this explanation, so it is no wonder that there were so many snakes and insects last night, but not a single person who was bitten by the sting.

Everyone thought about it and felt that it was becoming more and more reasonable, otherwise how to explain that they were not at all as cunning and vicious as the snakes and insects they had encountered before, and they didn't even know how to escape when they were beaten to death.

People began to whisper one by one, thinking that it should be like this, but there was another question, why are there hallucinations?

"And where do these hallucinations come from?" someone asked, what was in everyone's minds.

The people looked at the old man again, waiting for his answer.

"Because there are monsters!" Although the old man was old, his voice was not small at all, and everyone was clear, and the whole atmosphere was cold for a while.

To be honest, everyone also thought about this possibility in their hearts, but they all subconsciously denied it, if there are monsters, they?

The thought of having a monster cooled their hearts, whether it was a poisonous insect or a beast, they all had the courage to fight it, but if it was a monster, I was afraid that few of the so many people here would survive.

Seeing the frightened, unbelieving, confused, and uneasy looks of the crowd, the old man grabbed his crutches and slammed the ground a few times, attracting everyone's attention.

"What are you afraid of, there's still Lord Tengwu!"

As soon as they heard this, the people also joined in.

"Yes, and Lord Tengwu!"

"With Lord Tengwu here, it must be fine. ”

"By the way, my daughter is working in Lord Tengwu's mansion, and she said that Lord Tengwu is really amazing!"

"Really?"

"Is that fake?"

……

Listening to the hustle and bustle of the crowd, the old man sighed slightly in his heart, he could hear the hesitation and disbelief in everyone's words, to be honest, he didn't believe it much, after all, he had not seen this Lord Tengwu have any demon subjugation actions after so many years in the cottage.

No one knows how much he has the ability of adults, but at this time, there is only one choice to believe in adults.

While everyone was still talking, Mu Duo and Luo Mi had already arrived, pushed away the crowd in front of them that were blocking the road, and opened the way for the two guards behind.

Many people were pushed hard from behind by them when they were dazed, and fell directly on others' bodies, and they were about to turn around and scold a few times, but when they saw that it was Mu Duo and two guards, they quickly changed their faces and smiled.

They completely ignored the expressions of these common people, and without turning their heads, they walked directly to the center of the crowd and gave up the middle seat to the two guards.

The guards didn't pretend to be deep, nor did they sell anything, and said what they wanted to say straightforwardly: "Don't worry, Lord Tengwu will give you a treasure talisman today, with a treasure talisman, you don't have to worry about monsters." ”

After saying that, they left, and in less than a minute, they didn't want to say anything more to these common people, so it was better to hurry up and go to the camp, there were girls waiting for them, and as for the monsters, they just had to run fast enough when the time came.

And it's not like it hasn't come yet? Let's talk about it when we come.

"Is it useful?" someone whispered in the crowd, but everyone heard it.

Mu Duo and Luo Mi hadn't left yet, so naturally they heard it, and it stands to reason that they should immediately stand up and punish Diao Min who dared to be disrespectful to Lord Tengwu, but they just glanced at each other and walked away silently.

Can Lord Teng Wutori Zhong really get rid of demons?

Originally, the two of them didn't believe it, but they only sent a treasure talisman? This disappointed them even more, what can a talisman paper do?

I hope you get better soon.

Compared with Tengwu Clock, who doesn't have much presence in the cottage, Jiazuo is stronger in their eyes.

And just as they were worried, an even greater danger approached.
