Chapter Twenty-Six: The Beast
Before I set off, I had thought about what if I met someone from Mao'er Village..... So what should they be like now?
Continuing to make a living by farming and hunting?
Or do you rely on the Lilliputian country under the ancient well to make a living?
Now I have an answer, and an answer that is beyond my imagination.
"Are we crazy?" I pointed to myself and looked at the old bald man suspiciously: "Are you sure?" ”
"What nonsense to talk to him!" Qibao said with some eagerness: "This animal is no longer a human being!" Let's hurry up and subdue the demons! It is our duty to help the common people! There's still a big task ahead of us......."
"I ask you, what is a man?" The old bald man looked at me with a grin, ignoring Shippo or anyone else.
After thinking about it for a while, I gave the answer in the affirmative.
"Beasts."
The old man said that everyone has animal nature, so real people refer to just a realm.
Of course, in a way, there is no doubt that man is indeed a beast.
"That's right! It's a beast! It's like a competitive beast in the mountains! The old bald laughed and said, "Some beasts eat grass, some beasts eat meat, we all have to eat omnivorous, not only have to eat whole grains, but also eat some good meat to replenish our bodies......."
"Does it have anything to do with our madness?" I asked him.
"Yes!" The old bald nodded: "Competitiveness, cannibalism, unscrupulous means for a bite to eat, and can throw away the moral shackles for the sake of appetite, this is the real person!" ”
As he spoke, the old bald man laughed wildly, his body trembled constantly, as if he had seen the funniest thing in the world, and he couldn't control his emotions at all.
"You're all crazy!! I have forgotten even the nature of man!! I even think it's strange to eat people?!! Hahahaha!! ”
At this time, none of us spoke, looking at him silently, with a somewhat complicated expression.
"He's really crazy?" Chang Longxiang pressed his throat and asked me in a low voice.
"Definitely." I sighed: "Look at him like this, from head to toe, where does he not look like a madman?" ”
The old bald man is indeed crazy enough, the mood of the whole person changes rapidly, he was still laughing one second, and his eyes widened the next second, looking at the old man Zheng as if he wanted to eat people.
"It's all your fault for being an old immortal!! If it weren't for you letting those villains go!! Our days are definitely better than they are now!! ”
"You brute....... Old Man Zheng pointed at the old bald man with red eyes and scolded: "What about the rest of the village?!" You can't eat them all, can you?! ”
"Not really." The old bald man changed his face again, and said helplessly: "Rabbits don't eat the grass by the nest, let alone us living people?" ”
"Are they still alive?" I hurriedly asked, "Still in the mountains?" ”
The old bald man didn't squeak, and looked at us with a smile, as if he wanted us to guess for ourselves.
"Why are you eating people?" Chen Qiuyan stood cautiously behind me, as if she didn't dare to look at the old bald, slightly lowered her head, and looked puzzled.
"Replenish your body." The old bald said very simply: "If you want to fill your stomach, just eat the animals in the mountains, the problem is that we have a higher pursuit!" ”
"Where did this old thing come from?" Qibao couldn't help but scold, and glanced at Old Man Zheng: "Why does he talk in a set way?" Are you really from your village? ”
"Don't think about it, Lao Tzu has been to the provincial capital, and he has seen no less of the world than you." The old bald sneered: "You people who have never eaten people's waste, as long as you eat it once, I guarantee that you will be addicted!" ”
"How?" Chang Longxiang asked very curiously: "Is human flesh addictive?" ”
"It's not addictive, but it can turn you into a living immortal." The old bald grinned, as if to tempt us, and quietly bewitched: "It's nothing to eat a living person, and you will find out when you eat the second one...... I've become different! ”
Chang Long didn't say anything, frowned, and looked at him.
"The strength has become greater, and the speed has become faster, which is not the same thing as a living person who is a mortal!" The old bald said with great interest, his eyes full of eerie light: "The more live people you eat, the greater your strength, and wait until the end..... Don't you become an immortal in the day?! ”
"I think you're a pipe dream." I sighed.
As soon as the words fell, I looked into the forest in the distance and asked the old bald, "You are the only one who came down the mountain?" ”
"Much." The old bald smiled brightly: "When they arrive, you will die." ”
Hearing him say this, the faces of everyone present were also a little ugly, especially Chen Qiuyan and Old Man Zheng, whose faces were full of fear that could not be concealed.
"He's lying."
"What?" I was stunned for a moment and looked at Qibao: "How do you know?" ”
Qibao didn't answer my words, squatted down, looked at the old bald intently, and asked him.
"You're the only one going down the mountain, you want to scare us, that's why you said this on purpose, in fact, you still want to live, right?" Qibao laughed: "I feel that you are very life-saving, not like the kind of ruthless person who dares to play with his life." ”
Soon, the smile on the old bald face disappeared, and he looked at Qibao expressionlessly, his eyes flickering.
"After eating so many people, it took great difficulty to become so powerful, what a pity to die...... Qibao said loudly, picked up the five consecutive hairs on the ground, and pressed against the old bald left eye: "I don't think your head is good, or I can help you get it?" ”
"You want to kill me?" The old bald asked.
Shippo didn't squeak, put his finger on the trigger, and looked at me.
His eyes are a word.
To shoot or not to shoot?
"He's not human, is he?" I asked cautiously, looked at Chen Qiuyan, and waited for her to give me an answer.
Chen Qiuyan nodded, didn't say anything, and directly turned his face away, as if he couldn't bear to look at it.
"Bang !!"
Before I could speak, Shippo pulled the trigger first.
With the flash of fire from the muzzle, the old bald face was suddenly covered with a layer of iron sand, like a beehive, dense and disgusting.
In the process of being shot, the old bald didn't say a word, let alone dodge, just sat on the ground and let Qibao shoot.
It wasn't until Qibao put down the muzzle of the gun helplessly that the old bald laughed, his expression was very proud.
"You can't kill me......"
"Not necessarily." As I spoke, I looked at the old bald man very seriously, and said with a smile: "He really can't kill you if he shoots this shot, but I still get the answer." ”
The old bald man was stunned and looked at me.
"You are not a living person, but you have the characteristics of a living person, your physical body is more active than those who have become evil in the traditional flesh, although I don't know how strong your recovery power is, but I feel ......" I laughed: "In a short period of time, your physical recovery power is still quite weak. ”
"What do you mean?" The old bald man was a little panicked, and without waiting for me to speak, he warned me first: "I'm only at the bottom of the village!" If you dare to kill me!! The old village chief, they will definitely avenge me!! By that time......."
"At that point, we'll get rid of them one by one."
As I spoke, I buried my head and rummaged through my duffel bag.
"My grandfather once said that if you want to deal with the injustice with strong activity and ** characteristics, using fire is the best choice."
"Fire?! I'm not afraid of fire!! I'm invulnerable!! What am I afraid of?! ”
"Your face has been beaten into honeycomb coal, and you still have the face to say that you are invulnerable?" Qibao couldn't help but scold.
Suddenly, the old bald face turned even paler.
"This black rope that binds you is a unique magic weapon that has been passed down from generation to generation in my family, and it is specially used to drive away evil spirits and suppress ghosts to lock qi and disperse veins," I explained to him with a smile: "Whether it can deal with other wrongs, I dare not say this, because I use it for the first time, but ..... It seems to be quite easy to use on you, and you are now stronger than the **mortal fetus, right? ”
"Don't mess around!!" The old bald screamed, "If you kill me!!" You're going to regret it!! ”
"Then you're going to give me a reason not to kill you."
As I spoke, I dropped the peach branch in my hand on the ground and landed firmly at the old bald feet.
The old bald looked at me, and I looked at him.
At this point, he couldn't laugh anymore, only me.
"If you can't give a reason, I'll burn you to death......"
