In front of me is a humanoid monster dressed as a woodcutter.

It wears a bamboo hat on its head, short brown trousers, long red hair, a woodcutter in its hand, and eight arthropod-like tentacles sticking out of its back, like a red humanoid spider. The most terrifying thing is that the face of this monster has long been tattered and unrecognizable, but there is a fist-sized eye open from the throat, staring at Zhang Teng calmly, his eyes are full of cunning, violence, greed, and endless murderous intent.

In addition, what made Zhang Teng even more uneasy was that the chest of this humanoid monster seemed to have been broken by a sharp weapon such as a sword, but there was no trace of blood flowing inside. Only a blood-red heart full of tumors was beating in its chest, and there was a strange red glow faintly shining from the heart, which seemed to be pregnant with another life.

Just as Zhang Teng saw its appearance clearly, the third knife of the humanoid monster had already slashed down quickly, and the body of the knife was faintly glowing with a strange red light, bewitching and dangerous.

Zhang Teng did not rush to make a hard connection, but turned sideways to avoid this knife, who knew that the eight arthropod-like tentacles behind the humanoid monster were suddenly attacked at this time. They turned into eight sharp blood-colored spears, which suddenly stretched out, and stabbed towards Zhang Teng's body with great speed.

Zhang Teng was taken aback, and with the help of his feet, he hurriedly jumped back, narrowly avoiding the sudden attack of the eight arthropods again, and the eight arthropods grazed Zhang Teng's iron sand coat and inserted more than a foot into the ground!

"Goo!"

The humanoid monster let out a strange cry in its chest, and then made an unexpected move by Zhang Teng.

I saw that its eight arthropods suddenly bent into a bow, and with a snort, its body was shot towards Zhang Teng like a cannonball. At the same time, the torn chest cavity of the body instantly turned into a vertical blood basin mouth, biting Zhang Teng fiercely and quickly, as if to devour him in one bite.

Zhang Teng was in the air, not yet on the ground, and he couldn't help but be shocked when he saw this.

The speed at which the monster's body shot was so fast that he couldn't dodge it for a while, and in a hurry, he threw the dagger in his hand towards the monster's body.

"Whoosh!"

The dagger thrown by Zhang Teng pierced the sky like a black lightning bolt, and happened to be stuck in the monster's big eye.

I could only hear a terrible scream from the monster's chest, falling from the air to the ground, the vertical blood basin mouth kept opening and closing, and then after a convulsion of limbs, it gradually stopped moving.

And the eight arthropods not far away wilted, withered, and faded at a speed visible to the naked eye, like eight gray dry branches, and finally froze in place, no longer lifeless.

Zhang Tengren has landed, but he has retreated far away.

"Whirring ......"

He gasped in horror as he stared at the body of the monster that was no longer moving, not daring to let his guard down in the slightest.

After a long time, the monster remained motionless, and seemed to be really dead.

Zhang Teng felt a little unreal, that monster was so weird and fierce, and it died like this? Could it really be so coincidental, that eye was the monster's lifeline? The dagger he threw out temporarily just killed it with one blow?

Zhang Teng didn't dare to be careless, maybe he hit the monster's vital point by luck, but he wasn't sure that the monster had completely died.

So, he waited a little longer, and when he saw that it still didn't move, he picked up a branch from around and slowly approached the monster's corpse.

In fact, no matter whether the monster is dead or alive, Zhang Teng's heart is extremely reluctant to get close to this ghost thing. If he could, he just wanted to stay away from this.

However, he was reluctant to take the personal dagger that had been with him for several years.

At this time, Zhang Teng walked to a few steps away from the monster corpse and stopped. He laboriously pulled the dagger out with a twig, then knocked it into the air, causing it to fall into the grass three or four feet away from the monster's corpse. After doing all this, Zhang Teng breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly ran over there and squatted down to pick up the dagger.

Zhang Teng picked up the dagger, stroked the blade of the knife and said, "Old man, I finally got you back......"

At this moment, he suddenly felt an alarm in his heart, and the wind came from behind him again, and the secret path was not good, so he instinctively dodged to the side.

However, this time Zhang Teng's reaction was a little slower.

All he felt was a pain in his shoulder!

When he looked back, he saw that the previous firewood knife was actually cut on his shoulder, the wound was deep to the bone, and the whole firewood knife was left alive in the flesh and blood, and it was inlaid without moving.

However, because he was wearing an iron sand suit, and the iron sand suit had a small piece of iron on its shoulder. Therefore, the firewood knife cut through the iron sand coat and cut off the iron pieces, and the remaining strength was insufficient, and finally caused a wound about two inches long and more than half an inch deep to Zhang Teng. Although the wound was not light, it was not fatal, and in terms of the danger of the situation, it was a blessing in misfortune.

Zhang Teng endured the severe pain, covered his shoulders, quickly turned around, and looked at the position of the monster's body.

I saw that although the monster was in place, it stretched out its right hand, and just now it took the opportunity of Zhang Teng's back to it to throw out the firewood knife and attacked him again!

Damn it!

It is really cunning and insidious, despicable and shameless!

If it weren't for the fact that he dodged quickly, and had an iron sand coat on his body, he would have been seriously injured if he didn't die!

What the hell are you, and you're still dying?

Under the injury, Zhang Teng was also angry!

He quickly put the dagger back into his waist, pulled out the woodcutter embedded in his shoulder, and then quickly took off his iron sand coat, untied the iron bars tied around his legs, and even took off his iron-soled shoes. After all the burdens were removed, he didn't care about the bleeding from the wound on his shoulder, and rushed towards the monster not far away with a woodcutter in his hand.

The monster seemed to sense the danger coming, and let out a strange hiss in its chest, struggling to get up and be a demon.

It's a pity that Zhang Teng didn't give it a chance at all, he swung his woodcutter at the monster's originally injured eye, which was cut in half. Then he removed all its limbs, and then raised his knife and slashed it violently, chopping the monster into meat sauce.

After doing everything, Zhang Teng threw away the slimy woodcutter, took out some Jinchuang medicine from his arms, put it on it, hastily bandaged it, and hurried back to the bamboo courtyard.

Of course, before leaving, he didn't forget to take out the fire fold and find some hay to burn the monster's corpse chopped into meat sauce, along with its eight arthropods.

In the red firelight, the disgusting pile gradually turned to ashes, and finally only a light green bead remained. This time, Zhang Teng didn't pick up the light green beads, because the injuries on his body were not light, it was the right thing to go back to heal now.

Thinking about it deeply, Zhang Teng was not sure if there were any similar monsters nearby. He knew very well that once he was surrounded by them, he was now injured and only afraid of bad luck. What makes Zhang Teng even more unsettling is that these guys seem to be starting to unite, and it will be more and more difficult to deal with them, and there will be more and more people around them who will suffer.

Soul eater, what kind of creature is this? Even if Zhang Teng has done his best investigation, he can't find the slightest clue. Neither books nor anecdotal evidence have ever heard of the existence of a soul-eater.

It seems like it never existed, but where did it come from now?

However, no matter what, the entire town of Suining has long been unknowingly in danger.

After living in Suining Town for a few years, it has become Zhang Teng's second hometown, and he never wants those familiar people to become puppets of soul eaters. Anyway, he had to find a way to stop this. And the first step in this matter is to think about getting people to know about the soul eaters, and then identify the soul eaters, and finally eliminate the soul eaters.

All this needs to be carefully planned, otherwise once it startles, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Zhang Teng, are you in there?"

Just as he was deep in thought, Yun Ying'er's voice came from outside the bathroom door.

Zhang Teng came out of his contemplation, looked out the door, and couldn't help frowning slightly. His mood was a little irritable, and there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"Tuk Tuk!"

Yun Ying'er knocked lightly on the door, her tone was a little more anxious, and she asked with some concern: "Zhang Teng, are you inside? Are you injured? Yan is not serious, I learned some medical skills from my father, let me help you take a look, maybe it will be of some use." Zhang Teng, why don't you speak? What's wrong? If you don't speak, I'm going to rush in!"

As she spoke, she heard no movement in the bathroom, and Zhang Teng never replied, becoming more and more uneasy at the moment, becoming nervous, and raising her voice in the back, with the intention of breaking into the door.

"This ......" Zhang Teng heard it, and immediately cried and laughed, and said in his heart: "I'm ashamed, I think too much." ”

After all, the other party is only an eleven or twelve-year-old girl, how can she have such complicated scheming. On the contrary, due to various experiences, he habitually does not trust people, and always considers the dark side of human nature first when encountering problems.

was afraid that she would really break in, so he hurriedly said: "Little girl, don't come nonsense, I'm fine, it's just a little injury, you wait for a while, I'll come out immediately." ”

As he spoke, he quickly put on his clothes, opened the door, and walked out.

"Zhang Teng, why are you injured? Where are the injuries? Let me see if Yan is serious......

As soon as Yun Ying'er saw Zhang Teng coming out, she immediately rushed to him, stretched out her hands and touched Zhang Teng's body. She saw that his left arm was hanging down, his left shoulder was a little bloated and bulging, and her right hand subconsciously touched Zhang Teng's waist, intending to untie Zhang Teng's belt and take off his clothes to check the injury.

However, her wrist was grabbed by Zhang Teng halfway.

Seeing that she looked puzzled and seemed to be unable to figure out the situation, Zhang Teng had to cough helplessly and said, "Cough...... Little girl, I'm fine, just a little skin injury. Also, girls should not look at men's bodies casually, they will have needle eyes. ”

As soon as Zhang Teng said this, Yun Ying'er's little face suddenly turned red, and the left hand pressed on Zhang Teng's chest was quickly withdrawn like an electric shock, and she lowered her head in shame, not daring to look at him.

Seeing this, Zhang Teng smiled lightly, took the medicine bottle and was about to walk towards the cabinet by the wall.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Yun Ying'er mustered up the courage to raise her head, reached out and grabbed the corner of his clothes, and quickly stopped in front of him.

I saw her raise her red little face and say to Zhang Teng seriously: "My father said that doctors have parents' hearts, and patients are treated equally regardless of gender. I've studied medicine, I'm a doctor, and you take off your clothes and let me see how your injuries are?"
