In the second half of the night, Xiao Jing looked at his watch, it was already one o'clock in the morning, thinking of the battle the next day, it would be better to recharge his energy more, so he also turned off the lights and began to sleep.

The work on duty at night has been arranged in advance, and the personnel who will go into battle the next day must maintain sufficient sleep and get a good rest tonight.

So tonight's night watch is composed of four logistics personnel, and the next day they will stay in the camp, rest for a while, and then keep up with the troops, compared with the combat troops, they are obviously more laborious, but this is the price of not fighting, and it is also the proper meaning of the question.

Yes, Xiao Jing slept very soundly.

However, when he slept until nearly four or five o'clock in the morning, a sudden scream came, Xiao Jing got up with a bone, and touched his hand beside him, and the Tang knife had already appeared in his hand.

Putting on a coat, Xiao Jing vigilantly went out of the tent to check.

In the wilderness, even if someone keeps vigil, no one will sleep too hard, this is a habit that has been developed these days, when Xiao Jing went out, there were already people who came out vigilantly one after another to check the situation.

Xiao Jing saw that the fire in the camp was about to be extinguished, so he frowned, how did the night watchman be on duty at night, and even the fire could be extinguished?

On the other side, Xiao Jing saw the few people who came out first gathered together, as if they had found something, so they approached to see what was going on.

But before he got to the crowd, an extremely strong bloody gas penetrated his nose, which was disgusting!

Xiao Jing had a vague premonition, and sure enough, the soldiers of the two logistics groups on duty at night fell under a tree, one of their necks were bitten open, the other's stomach was cut open, and their intestines flowed all over the ground! The death was extremely tragic and unbearable!

Blood gushed everywhere, and the belly was cut open for a while, struggling in a pool of blood, but everyone knew that he was hopeless.

A trace of pity flashed through Xiao Jing's eyes, pulled out the short dagger on his thigh, and half-knelt down, the man was a little nervous at first, but then he realized what Xiao Jing was doing, a look of despair appeared on his face, and he closed his eyes.

Xiao Jing held his head and gently stabbed him in the back of the head, ending his pain.

Drying the short dagger and inserting it back in, Xiao Jing stood up and looked back, "Has anyone seen the perpetrator?"

A middle-aged man with a guilty face on the side said, "I'...... I saw ......"

Xiao Jing turned around and recognized that this was one of the night guards arranged today, so he motioned for him to continue.

The man said, "We ...... We keep vigil...... I was too tired, so I discussed taking turns to rest for a while, and it was just their turn to rest...... I...... I"

He couldn't go on anymore, he lowered his head in shame, not daring to look at Xiao Jing's forced eyes, but everyone could see that this person was lazy when it was his teammate's turn to rest!

Their arrangement today is to be on duty all night, and they will have plenty of time to rest the next day, but taking turns to rest, in the end, is still within the acceptable range, but this person's behavior is equivalent to ignoring everyone!

As people came out one after another, as soon as they inquired about the people next to them, they knew what was going on, and their eyes became more and more unkind when they looked at this person.

The man seemed to know that he was going to do evil to everyone, so he cowered and did not dare to speak.

At this time, Xiao Jing said, "Go on, what did you see?"

The middle-aged man glanced at Xiao Jing, swallowed his saliva, and continued: "At that time, the fire was about to be extinguished, and when they screamed, I couldn't see it very clearly, I only saw a black shadow rushing out, there was ...... Half a man's height, oh yes, the eyes are green!"

At this time, Yue Yan walked out, Xiao Jing couldn't see anything on her face, she calmly commanded everyone to clean up the corpses, strengthen vigilance, and relight the fire.

Regardless of how the two surviving vigilance members should be punished, it is now the most important thing to avoid new casualties, and the point is that when such a situation occurs on the first night of the day, it is also necessary to prevent morale fluctuations.

A strong leader can undoubtedly play a role in stabilizing the morale of the military.

When the fire was re-lit, there were members of the criminal police team in the middle of the crowd, who went up to check and hope to find some traces.

The traces of the scene were very obvious, several paw prints the size of an adult's palm were left around the deceased, but this was on the edge of the small river, the soil was wet, and the marks were obvious.

From this point of view, it was already clear that the night watchman was lazy to rest, and in one negligence, he let in the beast of prey for some reason, causing death.

Yue Yan immediately said: "Chen Zhuo, Lian Lao Si, each pick a team of people, and carefully investigate the surroundings! Xiao Jing, you arrange manpower and strengthen vigilance!"

But before she could finish speaking, there was another scream outside the crowd, and when everyone watched, they found that a soldier had fallen to the ground with his neck clutched, staring in despair, and gradually lost his breath.

The man closest to him exclaimed, pointed to the edge of the woods, and said, "There it is!"

Xiao Jing heard the sound and looked, only to see a vague black shadow, flashing by the edge of the forest, and disappeared.

Lian Laosi laughed, waved his hand and said, "Chase Lao Tzu!" and picked up a torch and chased after him.

Yue Yan stretched out her hand to stop her, but she didn't say anything when she thought that Lian Laosi wouldn't listen to her.

Lian Laosi chased the black shadow to the place where the black shadow disappeared, but he didn't know which way the guy ran, at this time, there was a sudden commotion behind him, and in the middle of several subordinates, a black monster jumped out at some point, and a soldier's shoulder was torn in half, which was still his quick reaction and avoided the fatal injury.

Lian Lao Si is the fire, he is not far in front, and his subordinates are attacked like this, they are simply slapping themselves in the face!

With a wave of his hand, a chain as thick as a finger poked out from the middle of his palm, as swift as a poisonous dragon.

Everyone gathered around the torches, and they could barely see clearly, this monster had a slippery skin like a loach, bean-sized eyes reflected the torches, a faint green light, a large mouth with triangular fangs like sharks, sharp claws, four legs and body proportions appear to be extremely thick, and the explosive power is amazing!

It had blood stains on its claws, and it seemed that it was this guy hiding in the shadows who delivered the fatal blow.

But seeing Lian Laosi shoot out angrily, everyone thought that this thing would definitely die, but who knows, outside the torch array, another monster jumped up silently, and the claws that flashed cold light only scratched the neck of a warrior, and the soldier's neck was cut out, and blood gushed out.

The monster lay on top of the warrior, opened its jaw, tore a large piece off his neck in one gulp, and gulped down the flesh!

On the other side, Lian Laosi was slightly distracted by this shock, the iron chain lost some accuracy, and the monster drilled into the crowd like a loach, and the tip of Lian Laosi's iron chain pierced the skin, and it was bounced aside weakly!

The monster left only a shallow trace on its body, and followed it into the dark forest, while the other monster was slashed by several people, but none of them could break through the skin of this monster!

Lian Laosi was frustrated twice in a row, snorted coldly, and the sound of the chain was loud, and the three chains came out in response, directly winding up, and the monster's body was extremely slippery, and before the chain was closed, it slipped out.

Lian Lao's four hands pressed down, and the tips of the three chains suddenly became extremely sharp, and there were three sounds, nailing the monster in place from three directions.

The part of the monster's body that was inserted, black body fluids flowed out, and a foul smell suddenly came, Lian Laosi looked disgusted, and with a casual grip, the chains were suddenly twisted together, and the monster's body was suddenly twisted to pieces!

Retracting the chain, Lian Laosi sniffed in disgust in the middle of his palm, as if he was afraid of being contaminated with an unpleasant smell, but the warrior whose shoulders had been cut open before suddenly began to twitch, and black pus spat out of his mouth.

When the other soldiers went up to check, they found that the wound he had scratched, which was originally only a little more than ten centimeters long, had now rotted and turned into a bloody hole, and there was a gurgling sound at the edge, which was obviously still getting worse!

Xia Zhi rushed over from behind, and when he saw this, he decisively pulled out his knife, and swung the knife fiercely, digging out all the corrupt flesh and blood of the warriors, of course, in the process, it will not be completely accurate, and it is inevitable that fresh and intact flesh and blood will be dug up.

The soldier fainted in pain and woke up several times, and several people almost couldn't stop his struggle, but Xia Zhi's expression didn't change in the slightest, and he was as calm as a robot!

Finally, all the flesh and blood were hollowed out, and there was a huge wound on the warrior's body, but it finally stopped getting worse, and Xia Zhi asked people to wrap the wound and wipe his hands and stand up.

At this time, Xiao Jing hurriedly walked over, he came to inform everyone not to chase deeply, the two people who were killed before had begun to rot, this is not too dangerous, even if it catches up, it will not help.

But when Xiao Jing came over to take a look, he knew that he was afraid that he was already late, and in just a while, a small team of people chased out had already killed two people!

Xiao Jing told the news, looked at Xia Zhi deeply, and persuaded Lian Laosi to go back.

Lian Laosi saw that the monster was gone, and he couldn't chase it anymore, so he kicked the monster's shattered body hatefully, scolded his mother, and turned away.

He didn't hate the monster for killing his two men, but for making him lose face.

Xiao Jing shook his head, sighed, and planned to go back to arrange things, it seemed that he couldn't sleep today, but when he turned around, he suddenly sighed, as if he had found something.

Xiao Jing squatted down, wrapped his hands in the clothes of the deceased, and pulled a few times in the slimy monster's body, and suddenly picked out an object.

He wiped this thing clean with a cloth, it must be something in the monster's body, not sure what the harm is, Xiao Jing didn't dare to be careless, although he wiped it clean, he still wrapped it in cloth and held it in his hand to watch.

It was a stone-like thing, translucent, not very clear, with cloudy debris in it, and in the night, it emitted a faint warm light.

The stone seemed to be warm, and through the fabric, Xiao Jing could feel the slight warmth it exuded
