Chapter 44: Horror by the River

I looked at the message sent by Yan Xiaoying, and the whole person was silent.

Before, Old Lady Yan had said that if Yan Xiaoying knew that I was going to that place to look for the Ghost Lantern Fruit, she would definitely go with her.

I didn't really understand what it meant, but now I suddenly understand something.

These days, I seem to have unconsciously become dependent on Yan Xiaoying. This time I left, I planned to hide it from her and go alone to find an antidote for Lao Fei.

But just now, I didn't think about it that much at all, so I sent that photo to Yan Xiaoying.

And when she saw the photo, she knew that I was in danger now, and she came to look for me despite her injuries.

"Alas, Lao Tianyan, Lao Tianyan, you are still a mountain guard. I have to help me with everything, and I don't have any ability! ”

For Yan Xiaoying, I felt a little guilty in my heart, and finally shook my head helplessly and put away my phone.

By this time, it was already dark.

I glanced at Chen Liming's body lying by the river and didn't touch him.

When I returned to the stone cave, I found that Huang Yuting had already laid out the tent, but there was no fire in the cave, and the cold was so cold that my skin hurt.

I went out and got some wood to make a fire, and then handed Huang Yuting a can of canned beef.

"Don't be too sad, eat some." I advised her.

"No, I can't eat it."

Huang Yuting shook her head sluggishly, she still had tears on her face, her clothes were thin, and she looked pitiful and heart-wrenching.

"How can I do without eating? I've already informed the police station, and if nothing else, they'll be here in the middle of the night, so come back with them." ”

"What, you called the police?" Huang Yuting's face changed, and she suddenly looked at me with a terrifying gaze.

"Of course, if someone dies, naturally you have to call the police!" I nodded, and as a matter of course.

"Who told you to call the police?"

Huang Yuting's eyes were terrifying, as if she was going to eat me alive.

I held the warm water cup in my hand, looked at Huang Yuting without avoidance, and snorted and asked, "You are not really Huang Yuting, who are you?" You and Chen Liming have obviously been here before, how did he die? Why did you go back and bring me here? ”

"Who am I......"

Chen Yuting looked at me, her face suddenly showed a blank look, and she muttered to herself, as if she had been stunned.

I felt that my tone was a little heavy, and I asked in a low voice, "Yuting, what happened between you and Chen Liming?" Did you kill him? What happened to you two after you two came here? ”

"I didn't kill him."

Huang Yuting raised her head and suddenly yelled at me: "But he should be damned, she restricted/restricted my freedom, he still has a lot of women outside, he doesn't love me!" ”

"So you lied to him and said that you went to Miao Village to find the recipe for the pill, and then killed him halfway?" I asked with a deep frown.

"No, I didn't kill anyone......" Huang Yuting whispered to herself, her face confused, painful, and helpless.

"What the hell is wrong with you?"

Seeing her like this, I felt a pain in my heart for no reason, and the hand holding the thermos bottle gradually loosened.

The bottle contained black dog blood, which I had asked for from the owner of the dog farm when I went to town.

Just now, I almost couldn't help but splash the black dog blood at Huang Yuting.

But seeing her like this now, for a while, I remembered all kinds of things that had been with her in the past, and the dusty wounds were cracked open little by little again.

Seeing that Huang Yuting was not in the right state, I didn't ask her again, and said softly: "Chen Liming is dead, don't be too sad, eat something first." ”

I handed her the canned beef again.

"Don't!"

Huang Yuting shook her hand and threw the canned beef on the ground, and said viciously to me: "I said don't eat, there is food in the intestines, and it won't taste good if it's not clean!" ”

"What did you say?"

I was startled, grabbed Huang Yuting's shoulder and asked, "What did you mean by what you just said?" What intestines don't taste good? ”

Huang Yuting slapped my hand away, with an indifferent expression and no explanation, suddenly got into the improvised tent, pulled the door cloth and locked herself inside.

I frowned, hesitated for a long time, and finally couldn't help pulling her out of the tent and asking for clarification.

Her current appearance is obviously wrong, as if she has been evil.

"Is it really said by Xiao Ying, she said it like a tanuki?" With a gloomy face, I took out the whip from my backpack and carried it on my back.

At this time, Xiaobai also got out of the backpack and shook his head and tail at me, obviously hungry.

This little guy is very human, with big black eyes and fluffy white hair, very cute.

The reason why I brought it is that I think the little guy is very spiritual, and maybe he can help me find the ghost lantern like he did when he found the mountain whip.

The second is that I really want to keep it by my side, and I will have a partner when I guard the mountain in the future.

Poured some canned meat on the ground for Xiaobai to eat, I touched Xiaobai's hair, and my heart gradually calmed down.

A man and a dog fill their stomachs and sit by the fire to roast the fire.

I'm not going to rest tonight, I'm just here to see what kind of evil is at work that dares to lure me here.

Xiao Bai shook his head and tail on the side, his big dark eyes staring at the dark woods outside the cave entrance without blinking, and he seemed to enjoy this environment.

sat by the fire for more than three hours, and it was getting darker and darker, and after Huang Yuting got into the tent, she didn't move, and seemed to have fallen asleep.

I thought I had enough energy to support Li Guodong's men, or the demon appeared, but in the past three hours, my eyelids were sleepy, yawning constantly, and my whole body was very tired.

Last night in the Changqing Taoist Temple, I didn't close my eyes at all, and I was tired all the way back to the coffin shop from the Taoist Temple. After returning to the village, he didn't rest, and hurriedly entered the mountain with Huang Yuting.

Now I really can't support my overworn body, and after several forced supports, I was finally beaten/knocked down by the Sandman.

I don't know how long I slept, but I felt that a tongue/head was adding to my face in a daze, and it was very uncomfortable.

Hazy opened his eyes and found himself lying on the ground, Xiaobai lying next to him whining, it was it that licked me with his tongue/head just now.

wiped a handful of Xiaobai's saliva on my face, woke up instantly, and then quickly got up from the ground.

"Meow! Meow ......"

As soon as I woke up, I heard a cat meow in the dark woods outside the cave, sometimes far and near, sometimes low and sometimes high, and it was impossible to determine the location.

"There really is a cat demon!"

I was shocked, and when I looked into the tent, I found that the door cloth had been pulled open, and there was no one inside, Huang Yuting was not inside, I don't know where I went?

"Careless!"

I slapped myself, took the thermos cup containing the black dog's blood in my hand, and drove the mountain whip out of the hole to find Huang Yuting on my back.

When I came to the outside of the cave, I happened to see a man walking towards the dense forest with his back to him.

In the faint light, I saw that the man had long hair and a shawl, and his body was thin, was it not Huang Yuting or who?

"Three watches in the middle of the night, where is she going?"

I groaned for a moment, then tiptoed after her into the woods.

After walking into the woods, the bizarre cat meows became louder and louder.

Huang Yuting kept walking, following the sound step by step, in the dark, her figure walking in the forest was like a ghost.

As I guessed before, the reason why she is so abnormal is because she fell for the trickery of the cat demon and lost her mind, and she is not an evil body.

She is now like a walking corpse, and it must have been caused by the cat demon calling her.

I followed her silently until I came to the river where Chen Liming's body had been found.

The moonlight was dim, and faintly, a person could be seen standing by the river, waving to Huang Yuting.

Seeing the strange figure by the river, my heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and I said secretly: "Could it be that the cat demon has been able to transform into a human form?" If that's the case, I'm afraid I'm not an opponent even if I have a mountain whip and black dog blood. ”

Just when I was hesitating whether to follow, Huang Yuting didn't stop and had already walked to the river.

Finally, I gritted my teeth and touched it.

Lying on the shore in the grass, looking out.

By the moonlight, I saw Huang Yuting looking sluggish at this time, as if sleepwalking, standing there unrelentingly.

And in front of her, there was a man standing, a man with a strange smile on his face.

"It's him, Chen Liming, how is it possible?"

Seeing the man's appearance clearly, my scalp instantly went numb, and the hairs all over my body stood on end, and I was shocked. I thought that the person standing by the river was a cat demon, but I didn't expect it to be Chen Liming, who was already dead.

"What the hell is going on?"

My mind went blank, and I was confused.

A man who was already dead was standing not far from the river at this time.

Could it be that he has been transformed?

I shook my head, feeling unlikely. It takes time for a corpse to change, how long has he just died? There will never be a corpse.

But how to explain the strange scene in front of us?

I swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, feeling like my back was already wet/wet with cold sweat.

Huang Yuting came here in the middle of the night to see her dead boyfriend.

This......

Just when I was shocked, there were a few more cat meows in the field.

As the cat's meow sounded, Yan Xiaoying suddenly fell to her knees, and then the whole person lay on the ground, making a strange posture.

"What is she doing here?" I frowned.

Carefully observing both sides of the riverbank, there was no shadow of the cat demon at all, but its cry just now sounded from Huang Yuting's side.

Where the hell is that thing hiding?

At this time, the situation in the field changed again.

I saw that Huang Yuting's whole person seemed to have lost her soul, crawling towards the water like a crab, and Chen Liming followed her stiffly.

"Meow! Meow! ”

The strange cry sounded again, like a talisman, and there was a strange magic in the sound.

As if she had received some kind of order, Huang Yuting actually stuck her head into the water and began to gulp water.

She looked like she hadn't drunk water for ten years, swallowing the cow, and in a short time her belly was swollen.

I can't believe that a person can be thirsty like this, it is simply not drinking water, but trying to burst his body!

Could it be that the cat demon is in the water?
