"Let's talk about it, what is going on with the haunting in the mountains, it stands to reason that the villagers will not be so frustrated."

Sitting on a stool and looking at Zhao De, who was sitting on the ground comforting the children, Xue Zhi smiled and asked.

"Actually, when I first arrived, I also had some doubts - how could this village be so weird, as if everyone was walking like a corpse, until one day, I saw it with my own eyes! A boy who resolutely did not believe in any gods, was beaten to death by his parents, and no one reacted at all, and in the end, the boy's body was fed directly to the beast, such a small village, under the shadows, it was as if there was something else, something indescribable......"

"Have you seen the Cthulhu Mythos?"

"I've heard a little about it, but I haven't seen it in detail."

"The gods in there, like the people of this village, are terrible, crazy, and even their followers are psychopaths wandering on the edge of the line of reason. They are like the internal organs of the world, and they are like the tumors of the world. Even if humans occupy the sea of stars, they are still small ants in front of the old rulers. But - you can't exterminate bugs, just like the old rulers, even if they are hostile to us, they don't always hurt us, just like we don't try to kill bugs all day long. But they really can't exterminate us, like this village...... Taking the children into the mountains, we hid. ”

"But here we are—"

"Easy to eat." Xue Zhi looked at Zhao De's eyes and spat out four words in his mouth.

Zhao De nodded, although the villagers would not do anything to eat their children, but ...... Kid, it's really incompetent. Therefore, it is possible to give up, and adults would rather put the food in the child's mouth into their own mouth. It's not about right or wrong, it's about survival.

Therefore, morality, insistence, the human rules that human beings build on the rules of nature, in fact, protect human beings from reality, this is the first element of human survival in this world, the so-called "morality" that seems ridiculous and is spurned by the wicked, so that human beings are in nature, not like wild beasts, in reality, like aberration.

At least, Xue Zhi doesn't have the ability yet, just like a Chaos Butterfly, it is enough to overturn a continent if he does it. Compared to the reasoning machine with a long face in the British drama, he is not a god, and it is difficult to do it.

"But so many of us, with food, hid ...... there."

"We hide our home."

When it comes to disturbing people's senses, then it can be said that there is only one thing to do.

The human body does not have a built-in compass and radar, and the so-called road addicts are actually people who have difficulty integrating the information of reference objects and paths, and do not care much.

As long as you change the direction and location of the reference, it is enough to trap people in it and walk around, after all, the houses in the village are far away, because it is not easy to find a flat land on the mountain - people in the village need to walk a few tens of meters of mountain road to almost see other people's houses, plus the original houses are all integrated, the house where the volunteer teacher lives, is a few hundred meters away, and is built separately, and the road can only walk around on the bumpy ground,—— is it difficult to remember what angle of those slopes? It's to see where there are a few dead trees, and there's a puddle over there - if you don't want to look at the mountains and run away from the dead horse, you can only look at the reference, and you don't often go to Zhao De's house to visit the door, and when the time comes, ...... Tsk, a group of people stood at the front of the valley and looked at a small clearing, pointed, and finally lay on the ground and came out of their mouths:

"Oh, I have long known that this Xiao Zhao is not a good person, and the gods have descended disasters...... The house is gone, my son—"

Wait, there's a picture.

When I walked to the road, it was the middle of the night.

Zhao De and Xue Zhi looked at each other and smiled, digging the soil that should be digging, moving stones when moving stones, and filling pits that should fill the pits, and discussed them from time to time - "If we guide the road to the place where the water will rush through at any time, will it be a little cruel?" ”

Xue Zhi asked.

I thought about it, but kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself, and the child is innocent, so—

"No, it won't." Zhao De smiled.

"Then be a little more cruel." As he spoke, Xue Zhi dug a little deeper in a small ditch on the mountain, from where the earth and rocks would collapse and the torrent would come out.

"I'm not sure if there was anything before, but this time it's definitely going to happen."

Zhao De felt a little guilty in his heart, he felt that those murderous tumor villagers would suffer injuries that they couldn't bear at their age, but it was inexplicably a little exciting.

"By the way, speaking of which, you haven't told me in detail about what's weird in the mountains."

"Ah, speaking of which, it's like this—there was an immortal in this mountain. It came out of the Tang Dynasty almost a hundred or two hundred years ago - you know, the history of the villagers is not good, the time is not accurate, and then, it is said that at the end of the lunar month every year, as long as the moon in the sky is not visible, the monster will reach out and eat the villagers and turn them into a part of themselves. ”

Nodding, Xue Zhi said, "Go on, it's a little interesting." ”

"I don't know, it's strange that the villagers lost a cow at that time—and then I had a friend of mine at the same time, and we had a good relationship, and he felt that he was an intellectual, and he should find it......

However, after a day, we didn't see him.

You know, what was he doing when we found him? ”

Xue Zhi blinked and motioned for him to continue.

He sat beside the cow, with a mouth full of blood gnawing on a leg, and the cow was dead, with a throat bitten off, and a few of his teeth embedded in it...... He just laughed, he was stupid, frightened, so helpless, so weird, so strange, as if out of place in this world. Saliva flowed from the corners of his mouth, and the expression of enjoyment on his face was as if he was enjoying some delicious food...... To this day, I still have a feeling of gagging, and later, he was sent to a mental hospital. ”

Xue Zhi didn't speak, and the development of the situation was already a little uncontrollable.

"You know, the villagers seem to have become commonplace, and there are children still playing with him, you know, he is looking for cattle for them."

"Okay, it's over, why are there so many mood swings?"

"He's my boyfriend."

didn't say anything, and the shovel under Xue Zhi was a little harder.

After a while, Zhao De turned his head, his posture a little stiff.

"How are we going back?"

Xue Zhi nodded, seeming to ...... This one is indeed a problem.

"Why don't you ask the villagers for a favor?"

……

Finally, when the sun rises, we are home!

Of course, in fact, this was seen by Xue Zhi on his watch, and so far there is no such thing as the sun in the village.

"Children, I ......" Zhao De's eyes widened, as if he saw something terrible.

A group of children around a child, the central one, clutching his throat, has lost his life. This child is the bigger one among the children. The children gathered around, crying very sadly, and the older teenager clutched a wooden stick in his other hand.

At the top of the stick, a sharpened tip with blood stains on it, and a groove in the back of the stick, it had been shot to death with a crossbow-like instrument.

Xue Zhi seemed to think of something, ran to the side, and checked the rice hidden in the stove, however, the rice was much less, just enough for one person for three days.

"Less."

Zhao De didn't care about any food, he just looked at this big kid - he was the class leader in the class, and he used to take good care of this group of children.

But everything seems so powerless, how helpless, as if a person is in the way of fate.

Standing up, Xue Zhi lay down on the chair and said, "Sleep for a while, I have to spend tomorrow." ”

Zhao De's eyes were bloodshot, and he looked at Xue Zhi: "You have no feelings, why, why, you have the ability!" ”

"I'm entrusted, I'm doing things. It's none of your business. ”

Zhao De didn't speak, but the expression on his face already revealed his thoughts.

"If you want to die, I'll knock you unconscious first, then tie you up and put you in a small room." Xue Zhi closed his eyes and said a sentence at the same time.

"Really...... He's dead for no apparent reason......"

"At the very least, you're not capable, are you......"
