Just like last time, shortly after we returned to the cabin, darkness fell on the land again. With the experience of the last time, I was obviously much calmer this time, and squatted by the window with Lu Yao, waiting for those monsters to appear.

Rustling...... Rustling......

The restless grinding sound outside the house suddenly rang out, and a large group of human-like and ghostly objects gradually appeared around the room, moving closer and closer in the direction we were. This time, I pretended to be brave enough to close to the window, carefully watching the movements around me, waiting with bated breath for the moment to disappear.

Looking through the glass, the outside world is not completely dark. Occasional lightning suddenly illuminates the heavens and the earth, and at this time, a large group of ghosts and terrifying figures can be clearly seen. Some of them still retained their human appearance, but their limbs were either mutilated or somewhat deformed, and they dragged the remains of their diseased limbs on the snow with painful expressions, and inky liquid flowed out of their bodies, soaking the vast expanse of snow; Some had no basic human form at all, appearing and disappearing, the shadows of fangs and horns reflected in the snow by the light of lightning. There are also monsters with empty expressions that I saw last time, still staring at eyes that are beyond the size of ordinary people, and their mouths are unnaturally wide open, as if they are screaming in horror.

Although these ghosts have different forms, they all have one thing in common, that is, they are naked** and have no covering. The monsters looked like they were looking for something, or rather, they were really longing for something. Maybe monsters are born like this, and this is the first time I've seen anything like this, I thought to myself. Even though I was comforting myself, I still felt a little weird, curious and terrified as I watched the monsters mopping the floor.

Suddenly, I didn't know if it was an auditory hallucination or if there was a sound at all, but I felt that the monster with its mouth wide open was really screaming violently, and the more I listened to it, the more real it became. His huge mouth was like a whirlpool, and I instantly felt like my whole body was going to be sucked into him.

Wu Chao...... Wu Chao......

What the! Why does that voice sound like it's shouting my name? I watched and listened in disbelief, and finally I felt that the monster outside was calling me, and he was talking to me! I couldn't help but stand up and lean on the window, trying to hear more clearly what he was saying.

"Miss Wu! Get down! Lu Yao, who was on the side, noticed that something was wrong with me and hurriedly shouted at me. His shout, like a stimulant, made the ghosts outside the house intensify the impact on the wooden house, and the whole house was crumbling and vulnerable in the impact.

At this point, I was lying on the window, my ears pressed against the glass, staring blankly at the youkai outside the window, meeting his hollow black eyes. He's calling me, I'm going, I'm going out!

Thinking so, I began to drag the tables and chairs against the wooden door, and I had only one purpose in mind, which was to get out. Seeing this, Lu Yao immediately came over and grabbed me and shook my body vigorously. "Miss Wu! What are you doing! ”

I seemed to come to my senses under his constant shaking. I pointed to the monster outside the door and said, "Lu Yao, that monster, the monster with a huge mouth open, he's calling me!" He knows my name! He's calling me."

"Miss Wu, listen carefully, he is not calling your name at all, calm down! Listen carefully! Hearing him say this, I closed my eyes again and listened carefully, and indeed I did not hear the same shout again, only the rustling sound and the loud noise of crashing against the cabin.

"Those youkai have special abilities that can hallucinate you, so I told you at the beginning that no matter what you hear or see, you can't get out of this room."

Gradually, I calmed down, and I was already in a cold sweat, fortunately with Lu Yao's presence, I didn't run out rashly, otherwise I wouldn't even know how I died. In order not to disturb myself again, I blocked my ears and tried to make myself sleep. Sure enough, by the time I opened my eyes again, it was already daytime.

Lu Yao, who was beside him, was already dressed and stood at the door with a firewood knife, ready to go out to chop vines. Due to the wind chill when I went out yesterday, and the extreme nervousness last night, I couldn't help but sneeze several times in a row. Lu Yao came over and touched my forehead and frowned at me.

"You rest here today, I'll go out and cut vines by myself." When he said this, I was a little happy, I don't know if it was because my body was really bad or because I was panicking by cutting vines. Eventually, I stayed in the cabin.

"I'll be back before dark, you have to be careful." With that, he pointed to the stick in the corner of the wall, told me to use it for self-defense at the critical moment, and then left the hut. I watched his distant back, gradually disappearing into the fluttering snow, and I felt a little worried in my heart.

I didn't know how long I slept with the quilt rolled, and when I opened my eyes, I felt that the whole world was spinning. I touched my forehead, it was getting hotter and hotter, and my body was getting colder and colder. Looking out the window, Lu Yao's figure has not yet appeared, and I don't know what time it is, but I just think that it is not a way for me to burn like this again.

Looking at the snow, I suddenly thought of going out to collect some snow and put it on my forehead, so that my fever would subside a little. So, I wrapped everything in the room and opened the wooden door with great difficulty. Since the door of the wooden house was not opened with a key, I was afraid that I would not be able to open it after I closed it, so I put a wooden stick in the corner of the wall against the crack of the door and went out to cut the snow myself.

Outside the house, it was still white, and the snow continued to fall from the sky, but the snow was still the same as when I came, and the thickness did not increase in the slightest. I struggled to walk in the snow with a feverish brain and no extra strength to think about these questions. I wanted to shave the snow directly in front of the hut, but I was afraid that would change the stability of the hut, as it was now my only shelter and I had to go a little further.

After walking about a dozen meters, I stopped, crouched down and scraped the snowflakes on the ground. The snow on the surface is so loose that it can't gather at all, so you have to keep plowing it. The constant exertion and cold made my whole body even more dizzy, and as I was shaving, my hands suddenly touched something.

Red! Bright red! My whole body was like being beaten with chicken blood, and my brain suddenly cleared up a lot. After rubbing his eyes to make sure he was not mistaken, he reached out and touched the red, which turned out to be a piece of cloth. This familiar red color is exactly the same as what I saw by the rice ball-like rock. I tried to pull the fabric out of the snow, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't pull it out, and a large piece of the fabric under the snow layer should have been pressed underneath. Curiosity prompted me to continue digging for this red cloth, and gradually a whole piece of red cloth appeared in front of me, along with other fabrics unearthed from the snow, gray, black...... Wait, why do these things look so familiar? I suddenly felt a hint of panic, and the movements in my hands began to quicken.

This...... It's a person! The red cloth was tied around the man's waist like a belt. The gray is the man's shirt, the black fabric is the man's pants, and then ...... With great fear, I shuddered to remove the snow from the man's face, and suddenly my whole body sat in place as if it had been pierced by electricity.

The person lying in the snow was Lu Yao.
