Chapter 8: Planting Blame
The woman's shrill and hoarse screams pierced the quiet night of Moxi Village.
This shout brought Mo Xingran back to his senses from the shock, he didn't care much, turned his head to look at the tiled house where the screaming sound came from, and strode towards the tiled house.
"Ahh
He doesn't care about the rest, he just wants nothing to happen to him.
Mo Xingran kicked open the wooden door and ran towards the backyard of the tiled house.
I don't know the situation, the small table also ran all the way with Mo Xingran, his legs were too short, he didn't brake at once, and his head hit the wall in front of him: "Alas, what are you doing here?"
The table rubbed his head, and his mouth muttered around Mo Xingran.
However, when he saw the scene in front of him, his legs softened, and he sat on the ground, his dirty face looked dull, and his mouth muttered words that people couldn't understand: "Nadi, Nadi woke up, Nadi woke up in the night..."
Mo Xingran's eyes widened in horror, he had never seen anything in this courtyard before.
There was a large pool of dark purple, slightly transparent mucus on the ground, and the mucus seemed to be wrapped in a corpse that had not completely decomposed, and it could only be vaguely seen that the limbs of the corpse were gone, only some organs and thick bones remained, and with the wriggling of the mucus, they were intertwined with each other.
The night was so dark that there was no light in the courtyard, and it was impossible to tell whether it was a human skeleton or an animal.
In the corner of the high house was a disheveled woman, the puddle of slime slowly squirming towards her, leaving wet marks on the place she passed, and she couldn't tell if it was blood or something else.
This woman is the fiancΓ©e of the second prince of the Nine Heavens, Ran Ling.
She shook her head frantically at this time, curled up in the corner of the wall and could not retreat, her eyes were cracking, her lips were white, and her whole body trembled.
Mo Xingran didn't care much, he looked around, and found Wuge lying by the wall, he touched the wall, and held Wuge's shoulder to call her: "Hey, wake up." Wuge didn't react, and he didn't know whether he was dead or alive, and in his anxiety, Mo Xingran could only take a risk, and dragged Wuge into the main house under the nose of the monster.
The broken bowl tiles on the ground cut Wuge's arm at some point, and when Mo Xingran dragged her to the main house, she looked down and saw that Wuge's body was bright red.
The puddle of mucus suddenly twisted violently uncontrollably at this time, as if it was going crazy, its "body" was like boiling water, bubbling, emitting a fishy smell, wriggling and pulling out two tentacles dripping liquid from its "body", and dancing its teeth and claws into the air.
Ran Ling had already lost her soul with fright, and she shouted in shock: "Help me! Mo Xingran, save me!" She climbed out of the corner of the high house without hesitation, stood up and was about to run to the main house.
didn't run two steps, suddenly seemed to be tripped on her feet, and fell to the ground facing down, she cried out at this time: "Let go of me, let go of me!" her hands grabbed on the ground indiscriminately, her feet were wrapped around the tentacles of the slime, and the two tentacles slowly dragged Ran Ling into the mucus little by little, as if to devour her.
The monster seemed to be not very satisfied with the "prey" in front of it, and it scrept in the direction of the main house while wrapping around Ran Ling's legs.
The small table saw that the slime was squirming in his direction, and hurriedly ran to the main room, closed the back door, and resisted it with his body: "Don't be stunned, think of a way! Nadi woke up in the night, it was going crazy!"
Mo Xingran looked at Wuge on the ground at this time, his shaking hand fell under Wuge's nose, sweat hung on his forehead, and his expression was nervous and serious, until his fingers touched Wuge's warm snort, and he gasped heavily. He took a quick look at Wuge's body, and found that there was a deep, long gash on her arm that was oozing blood.
"Knock, knock" something is banging on the door vigorously, the dark purple mucus slowly seeps into the crack of the door, there is no woman's scream outside the door, and the table sees that the mucus on the soles of the feet is accumulating more and more, and yells: "I can't stop it, run!"
There was no support point, only a "bang" was heard, and the slime poured into the room at once, and the smell of blood filled the whole room at once as the door was broken.
"Star Dye!"
"Third brother!"
A familiar voice came from behind Mo Xingran, but at this time he had no time to care, he was struggling to drag Wuge step by step, the monster seemed to be attracted by something, writhing wildly, like a flood beast with a bloody mouth and squirming towards Wuge, seeing that it had been wrapped around Wuge's feet.
"Third brother, let's go!" Princess Feng Jue of the Nine Heavens stepped forward and grabbed Mo Xingran's arm, trying to drag him away.
Who knew that Mo Xingran shook off her hand, pushed her towards the front door, turned around and went to pull out Wuge's leg, shouted in a hurry, and smashed the puddle of mucus with his bare hands: "I don't care what you are, if you dare to hurt her, I will break you into ten thousand pieces!"
His fist slammed into the tentacles of the slime, and suddenly, the slime seemed to have been burned by something, and the place where it was smashed by Mo Xing's fist was smoking, and the holes were dented, like a pigskin on hot oil being burned, and there was a violent fishy smell.
The puddle of mucus suddenly shrank back as if it was in pain, but the rotten pit spread incessantly, and before it could retreat into the courtyard, the puddle of mucus turned into a puddle of dark purple pus, and the stench spread, and the pus on the ground was scattered with organs, bones, and even some fur that had not yet been completely corroded.
Mo Xingran sat on the ground for a moment, his hands were full of sticky thick liquid, as if there was still blood, he hugged Wuge, and his voice was tired: "Second brother, second sister-in-law is behind." β
Hearing this, Mo Kong, the second prince of the Nine Heavens, rushed into the backyard in three or two steps, only to see Ran Ling, who was already unconscious, not far away, her clothes were disheveled, her makeup and hair were messy, and the skin and flesh of the calf of her right leg had been corrupted, leaving only the terrifying foot bones and leg bones exposed in the air.
Princess Feng Jue looked at Mo Xingran, who was stunned, squatted down to his side and whispered, "Third brother, are you okay?" β
Mo Xingran waved his hand, very tired, his eyes were only staring at Wuge, who had not yet regained consciousness, from beginning to end, not knowing what he was thinking.
In the backyard, the small table ran over at some point, he looked at Nadi in front of him that turned into a puddle of pus, his expression was sluggish for a long time, and with a "plop" sound, two short legs knelt on the ground, and suddenly let out an earth-shattering cry, while crying and kowtowing to the pus: "Please, it's none of our business, don't blame us, please!"
Wuge's eyelids twitched, and Mo Xing's handsome face finally turned bloody, and he shook Wuge's shoulders violently: "You're awake, you're awake, what's wrong?"
Wuge raised his hand to cover his neck with difficulty, it was too dark, Mo Xingran didn't notice that there was a deep bruise on Wuge's neck, Wuge coughed dryly, opened his mouth but couldn't spit out a word, his chest seemed to be pressed by a boulder, and he couldn't breathe.
"Don't talk, take it slowly. Mo Xingran soothed Wuge.
Feng Jue heard the crying sound coming from the backyard, and hurried over, followed by a man in a blue robe. She rushed to the courtyard and saw Ran Ling lying on the ground, her eyes widened, and she walked to Mo Kong's side: "Second brother, second sister-in-law, what's wrong?"
"Hmph, it's time to pick up a life. Mokong snorted lightly, with some unconscious grief in his expression.
"Then, what about Shi Chuan, the second son of Beihai, didn't he stay here with his second sister-in-law?"
Mo Kong was very impatient, took off his robe and covered Ran Ling's body, and hugged her: "I don't know, don't mention it again." β
"Batian is going to be punished, Batian is going to be punished..."The immature face of the small table was terrified, and he stood up and shook his little finger at Feng Jue at his side: "It's all your fault! It's you, it's you who provoked it, it's you!"
Feng Jue was very puzzled: "Little boy, why did you say this, what are you guilty of?
The small table stared at the bloodshot eyes, trembling all over, as if stimulated, he didn't answer Feng Jue, turned around and ran.
The blue-robed man beside Feng Jue said, "Princess, if you want to come here, it's not appropriate to stay here, we'd better leave here first." β
Feng Jue nodded, looked at the puddle of pus on the ground with some hesitation, covered his nose lightly, and turned his head back to the main house.
ββββββ
Several people sat around the wooden table, the candles on the wooden table had burned out at this time, and they could only faintly see each other through the light of the village outside the door.
"The bamboo was gone, and I searched several rooms, but I couldn't find it. There was frustration in Mo Xing's clean voice.
At this time, Ran Ling, who was lying on the ground, woke up at some point, she wailed and hugged her legs, crying and screaming, very noisy, but no one paid attention to her.
"Third brother, haven't you seen Duo'er yet? In the afternoon, when we arrived in the village, we went out to look for you, leaving the second sister-in-law and Brother Shichuan here to wait for you. Feng Jue asked.
Mo Xingran shook his head: "No." β
"Now the only people we have entered the battle together are me, Feng Jue, Xing Ran, Meng Fanqing, this fairy child, Ran Ling, is still alive, and the rest don't know life and death. The second prince's voice was weak.
In the darkness, a blue-robed man's voice was low: "I should leave as soon as possible at this time, and I shouldn't linger any longer." β
"You said lightly, I was killed today because of this man!He was the one who instructed that monster to attack me!" Ran Ling pointed directly at Wuge, who was half-awake beside her, her voice weak and vicious.
Wuge's eyes widened in the darkness when she heard this, she was a little confused, she bumped into the ugly affair between Ran Ling and Shi Chuan today, could it be because of this that she spewed blood? Wuge let out a vague hoarse cry angrily.
Mo Xingran was furious when he heard this, slapped the table and got up: "You are spewing blood, when I go to Shichuan, there is no trace of him, this fairy child is unconscious in the corner, I tried my best to drag her into the house, if she instigated it, how could the monster eat her later?"
"Hmph, you don't believe me? Even if I don't care about my own face, I should also take care of the face of the Nine Heavens and the Four Seas, do you know why that monster suddenly attacked me? It's because I bumped into him and then Chuan conspiring to capture the Sky Devouring Beast, and he wants to kill us all one by one!" Ran Ling's voice trembled, hoarse, and very sincere.
Under the shroud of night, Wuge only felt a cold all around, she couldn't see other people's faces, but she felt that there was a cold light shooting towards her.
"Shut up!" Mo Xingran shouted.
In the dark, Ran Ling's face was distorted and sinister: "Hmph? What? You defend an outsider but don't believe me? If what I said is not true, why doesn't he say anything, Mo Xingran, shouldn't it be because you are the adopted son of the Nine Heavens that you turn your elbow out?"
Mo Xingran lowered his head and suppressed his anger, and everyone at the table could feel the shabby wooden table trembling uncontrollably.
"He, they're inside. "It's the sound of a small table.
Suddenly there was a buzz of people outside the door, and a group of villagers shouted loudly for them to come out.
"You have killed Nadi, and now our village is going to suffer the catastrophe, and you must go to Batian to ask for your guilt. β
"Yes!
"Come out quickly, or don't blame us for being rude!"
Mo Xingran held back his anger, and his voice gritted his teeth: "I'll go!" Feng Jue, please help me take care of this fairy child, third brother thank you." Ran Ling, remember what you said today, and when I go out of battle, I will definitely ask you to pay back tenfold!"
When Wuge heard this, she struggled desperately to get up, groping in the dark and crawling to Mo Xingran's side, she grabbed his trouser leg, shook her head stiffly, and couldn't stop crying.
"You are obedient, don't act rashly, trust me!" Mo Xingran squatted down, touched Wuge's head, and whispered to her.
"No, third brother, we have never seen that monster in the post-god continent, how do you know what they are talking about, you have three long and two short, how can you let me and the second brother be good?" Feng Jue sobbed silently in the dark, and only in the darkness did she dare to show nostalgia in her eyes.
The blue-robed man said in a deep voice: "In this case, let's go out together first, ask the villagers clearly, and then make a decision." β
However, Mo Xingran had already snatched the door out at this time, and he closed the wooden door with a "bang", leaving behind a resolute and lonely back.
"Third brother!" Feng Jue shouted.
Wuge only felt very tired at this time, she didn't understand how all this could have become like this, why did the three princes sacrifice themselves to save her, and why did they take risks alone, she just wanted to sleep well at this time, maybe as soon as she woke up, she would be in the glass fairyland, even if that guy Qiyuan played the piano for her a hundred times a day, she was willing.
