Chapter 112: The Village of the Mist
There was something strange about the village under the mist, and the blazing fish hesitated for a moment, but walked over.
In a gray mist, the vision is not very clear, but fortunately, the blazing fish has the ability to perceive. She saw a person standing at the entrance of the village from a distance, and approached, but she didn't feel a sense of creeping. It wasn't a man, but a fleshless white skeleton, standing upright.
The blazing fish frowned slightly, and there were some doubts in his heart, how long has this been dead, and there is no flesh and blood left on the bones? Still standing?
She gently touched the white bone, only to hear a "bang", the white bone broke from her waist, and the entire upper body fell down.
The blazing fish was startled and instinctively took a few steps back. The upper body of the white bone had fallen to the ground and scattered into a heap, and then looked at the broken part of the spine, the fracture was neat, obviously not just pushed down by the blazing fish, but as if it had been cut off by a sharp weapon before.
The blazing fish bowed to the white bone and muttered, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." I didn't mean to. ”
There was only one way into the village, and it swayed along the hillside. The blazing fish walked along the path for a while, and there were a few simple houses beside the road, and the stove in front of the door was still steaming white, and the fire in it had not yet been extinguished.
My head was in a daze, and I had to ask someone for directions. Blazing Fish stepped forward and knocked on the door.
There was no movement in the room, and the wooden door creaked open with a gentle push. The early morning sun shines through the gray mist.
It was a very simple room, and the blazing fish had gently wiped the tabletop, and there was no dust, apparently someone had been cleaning it all the time. There was no one in the outhouse, and the door to the back room was open.
"Is anyone there?" Blazing Fish asked as he walked over.
No one answered, so Blazing Fish gently pushed the door open. It was a little dark in the room, and after a few steps, the blazing fish stumbled and almost fell. Looking down, her brow couldn't help but furrow again.
There was a "man" lying on the ground, just like the people he met at the entrance of the village, his body had no flesh and blood, only Sensen's white bones remained. There were several neat cuts on his body, and the bones that had fallen to the ground were already a little scattered.
"Why is this the case?" Blazing Fish muttered to himself: "The stove is still hot, people shouldn't have been away for long, why has it become like this?" ”
The blazing fish bowed to the bones on the ground, sighed, and left the room.
The blazing fish walked in the village, and did not meet a single living person. From time to time, I can see the kind of house at the entrance of the village, and the white bones can be seen everywhere inside and outside the house. Most of the white bones were intact, except that in some parts, there were neat fractures, as if someone had slashed them.
The fire in the stove was still burning, the water in the pot was steaming with white smoke, the firewood was piled up by the stove, the water tank in front of the house was full, it was a normal morning, it seemed that people were carrying water, lighting fires, and cooking as usual, as if all of a sudden, these people were turned into white bones, and there was no flesh and blood left.
Blazing Fish looked at the hot water churning in the pot in a daze, and suddenly felt a shadow flicker behind him. As soon as the blazing fish turned, the shadow was gone, and only a faint sound of ropes could be heard in the grass behind the mill.
The blazing fish looked closer, and the sound was gone.
In the distance of the mill was an overgrown meadow that was so lush that it was almost taller than the head of a blazing fish. Blazing Fish took a look, and there was a low room behind the meadow, which was almost completely hidden in the weeds, and if it weren't for Blazing Fish's perception, it would not have been possible to find that room. And in that room, the blazing fish sensed that there was a living thing moving.
The blazing fish tossed away the grass as tall as a man and walked towards the house. She had barely taken a few steps when a hand dragged her down.
As soon as she turned around, she saw a person and stared at her coldly: "Don't walk around." ”
The blazing fish sat on a stone bench in front of the mill, the water in the pot still churning white smoke. The person in front of him poured some hot water on his own and handed a bowl to the blazing fish. It was a bearded man in the prime of life, with slightly curly brown hair, cuffs rolled up, revealing strong arms, and a cold expression.
This person's appearance was vaguely familiar, but at the moment, Blazing Fish's mind was blank, and he couldn't think of anything. She could just feel the gloom in this person.
Blazing Fish looked at him hesitantly, not knowing whether to take it or not.
"Huh, what? Can't trust me? The man took a sip of water, wiped his mouth, and smiled. He didn't seem to have any ill will towards the blazing fish, and his smile wasn't as gloomy as he looked.
Blazing Fish took the earthen bowl, which was so broken that there were several notches on the edges. The blazing fish frowned unconsciously, and wiped it with his sleeve.
"Still disgusted?" The man smiled: "In this kind of place, it's good to have a life, but it's still a broken bowl." Tell me, how did you get here? ”
Blazing Fish didn't answer him, but asked, "What's going on here?" ”
The man was about to say something, but he heard another sound in the grass, and the man made a silent motion, and his hand was already pressed on the knife at his waist.
Blazing Fish glanced at the knife at his waist, it was a large knife with a strange appearance. It is said that a scimitar is not a scimitar, but it is different from an ordinary single knife. The strange shape made the blazing fish feel a little more inexplicably more stalked, but she still couldn't remember where the stalk was.
The movement in the grass stopped, and the blazing fish faintly felt the living creature in the grass, and shrank into a ball, trembling with fear.
"Heh, there are still fish that slipped through the net." The man's strange knife swung at will, and the weeds were carried by the knife wind, and a large piece was cut off in unison.
This knife technique is ...... with the fractures in those white bones. The blazing fish looked into the grass. I heard the man shouting, "Come out!" ”
There was something cowering in the grass, afraid to move. The blazing fish came closer, and was dragged back by the man: "Don't go, danger!" ”
"What the hell is this?" Blazing Fish Wonder.
He glanced at Blazing Fish, and seemed hesitant to tell her, only vaguely said, "This village monster." ”
"Monsters?" There was a strange feeling in the heart of the blazing fish, looking at the form of spiritual power, that thing was more like... Alone? … She leaned over curiously to see clearly, but the man seemed a little annoyed, and as soon as he picked her up, he threw it away: "Tell you not to go!" Dangerous. ”
The blazing fish rubbed the arm that was scratched, said goodbye, and had to retreat: "So strong..."
The man's figure flashed, and he had already entered the grass, and with a knife he slashed through, and the thing in the grass stopped moving.
The man dragged the curious-looking blazing fish back to the mill, the knife in its sheath.
"What is that?" Blazing Fish was puzzled: "Why don't you let me pass?" ”
The man glanced at her, took a sip of the earthen bowl, and said, "A monster is a monster." You'll have nightmares when you watch it. ”
