190. The Taste of Blood I
What was the golden shadow she had just seen? It seems that the size is not small, what kind of animal will it be? Although she can't remember any large animals with that color, new creatures are often found in the Shennongjia forest, and it is hard to guarantee that it is not a new discovery.
"Shi Sui, what are you in a daze?" Meng Fan's hand shook vigorously in front of her eyes.
"It's nothing, just thinking about coming out to shoot the night scene later." It's rare to come here, it's a waste not to take a picture, but the moonlight is very bright tonight, and it is estimated that you can't take pictures of the scenery of the sky hanging in the galaxy.
"In the middle of the night? You're not afraid of freezing into snow strips?! Meng Fan shouted.
"It's common to shoot night scenes in winter, especially the starry sky, which can basically be said to be common sense, because the air transparency in winter is higher than in other seasons." Besides, it's only half past eight in the evening, and there are still a few hours before the "third watch", right?
"But a girl isn't safe, right? Why don't you let Meng Fan go with you? Professor Meng said uneasily.
"It's okay, I'm not running into the forest. Besides, you can only stay next to you when you are exposed, and people who are not interested in photography will be very bored. Besides, I don't want to be disturbed. She shook her head in decline.
"Are you saying I'm going to interfere with you?" Meng Fan's eyebrows were raised, "You run to a place where there is no one, aren't you afraid of snakes?" I'm going to do my duty as a police officer to protect you, a citizen! ”
Where to find snakes in winter? Didn't Meng Fan learn that snakes are going to hibernate? "It's okay, I think in this kind of 'midnight watch', the snake has already gone to sleep." She chuckled dryly.
"Then you have to be careful." Professor Meng admonished.
"Well, I will." It's not the first day she's been in the field to shoot, and she'll take care of herself.
The night air was cold, but she loved it. There were not many lights in the village, and she enjoyed the silence as if she was wrapped in the night, as if all the sounds were frozen by the night. She had just adjusted the angle and exposure time of the shot, and when she pressed the shutter release line, a voice asked curiously, "What are you doing?" ”
"Photography." She subconsciously finished answering, only to remember that there was no one around, how could there be a voice to talk to her? Looking around, I really didn't see anyone nearby. Auditory hallucinations, or ghosts? Tsk, how come there are some strange brain waves flying everywhere?
"Aren't you afraid? Maybe I'm a ghost. The voice asked again, this time with some amusement.
"What's there to be afraid of brain waves?" She has encountered more troublesome ghosts, and she is afraid of this sound that comes out of nowhere? Perhaps people's fear of ghosts comes more from their own guilt, or from ignorance of the unexplained phenomenon of "ghosts"? After knowing the true face of the "ghost", she already felt that it didn't matter.
The voice chuckled lowly, "What a woman! ”
After that, the voice didn't appear - really auditory hallucinations?
Shaking her head at herself, she was about to change the angle of the shot, when she noticed someone coming out of the professor's house - no! The man didn't look like he was walking, he was floating! And it was so bright and dark, why could the man see it from so far away as if he could shine? She zoomed in with her camera and realized that the man was the one who had come to inform the professor during the day that the drawbridge was broken, perhaps because of the peculiar look of the wooden demeanor and the flat tone, otherwise she would have had a hard time remembering what the man looked like (because she was a bit face blind). But she only looked away slightly, and when she came back to her senses, the man had disappeared like a bubble.
Belch...... Couldn't it have been her hallucination?
Before she knew it, it was already twelve o'clock, and she sighed into the palm of her hand, it was really cold, so pack up and go back to the professor's house. I don't know if Qin Feng finished drinking tea, anyway, when he goes back, he has to pass near the village chief's house, so he can take a peek by the way.
As she walked near the village chief's house, she saw a woman wrapped in a long coat appear in the village surrounded by night, the pale yellow light outside the village chief's house illuminated the woman's three-dimensional and delicate face, and the long dark chestnut curls under the light also indicated that the woman was not from the East. Aha, maybe it's the village chief's lover?
The woman hugged the village chief who had come to open the door, and the two spoke as if they were in French, but she did not understand them at all. Since the village chief has an appointment with a beautiful woman at night, a handsome guy like Qin Feng should have been sent away a long time ago. Shrugging to herself, she decided not to bypass the village chief's house and go straight back.
"Earl, there seems to be a curious little cat near your house." The woman suddenly said in Chinese, and the crisp voice seemed to be striking the triangle.
"It's just a wild cat with no pedigree." The village chief smiled slightly contemptuously.
A little wildcat without proof of pedigree? Are you talking about her?
"Get out, kitten." Before she could react, someone suddenly grabbed her collar, and it turned out that the woman had already come to her! The woman with dark chestnut curly hair was more than a head taller than her, and her height gave her a great sense of oppression.
The village chief crossed his arms and lowered his head and chuckled, as if he didn't need to look to know it was her. "Shi Sui, a magazine writer and photographer, mainly responsible for travel and food - probably not part-time as a paparazzi, right?"
"I was just passing by, I originally wanted to ask Qin Feng if he had gone back...... "She really doesn't have the ability and luck to eavesdrop, she gets caught every time, it's really back!"
"The pretty big star has gone back." The village chief looked up at her and said to her.
"Oh, then I'll go back first." She said with a dry smile, but the woman holding her collar didn't let go, and she couldn't go at all.
"Lena, please let this little wild cat who doesn't know how to be rude come in and sit down." The village chief suddenly said, "I smelled a great fragrance, I thought it was the big star, but I'm afraid I'm blind, let's check it again." ”
Great scent? Who wears perfume? She looked up at the foreign woman in embarrassment.
"Please, kitten." The woman known as Lena literally carried her by the back collar like a kitten and forcibly took her into the village chief's house.
The village chief made her tea, she looked at the village chief sitting opposite her and drinking tea leisurely, she didn't do anything bad, and she didn't eavesdrop or eavesdrop on anything, why did she have to be tried like a prisoner? "Village Chief, what the hell is this......"
"Are you hurt somewhere?" The village chief lowered his eyes and tasted tea, as if he asked casually.
Wounded? "Oh, I scratched a little bit on the stone when I took the picture just now." It's just a little oozing blood, it's not very painful, and she doesn't care, but what's the matter? Could it be that the village chief is a shark, and he is excited when he asks about the smell of blood?
"The wound is on the left hand." Without notice, Lena grabbed her left wrist and pulled her over the table to the village chief, causing her to almost fall on the coffee table. Luckily she didn't have the cup in her hand, otherwise the cup of tea would have been fed to the table.
To her surprise, the village chief grabbed her bruised palm, pulled it to his mouth, and licked her bloody wound! She was almost petrified on the spot, what's going on?!
"That's right, that's what it tastes like." The village chief smiled with satisfaction, "The elegant aroma of the best black tea leaves is incomparable, and the best red wine is better than the mellow and silky, which is really wonderful......
Ha?! She, she, she, she met a strange monster who looked like a human but ate people again?! - Okay, Ye Zhen said that this village is full of such monsters.
"Earl, do you mean that this little kitten with no pedigree certificate has the finest taste we are after?" Lena asked in surprise.
"Hmm." The village chief stared at her and smiled faintly, "If everyone knew, she might not be alive for a few days." ”
The way the village chief stared at her was the look of a wild beast when it saw its prey. She had a chill.
