Chapter 385: A Tragedy

The monk's body was full of flesh, and except for a small amount of solid flesh, the delicious fat under the skin tissue had been eaten away by rodents, revealing the white bones under the blood-red flesh.

And on the side of this blur of flesh and blood, is a pair of broken glasses.

This glasses...

Jiraiya felt a hint of familiarity in his heart, and at this moment, more chaotic footsteps could be heard in the cellar passage behind him.

"Huineng, what's going on?"

"Earth, earth, land, someone's dead..."

The monk trembled and pointed his finger at the flesh and blood on the ground, and the monks who followed him saw the blood and flesh on the dark ground.

This cruel scene is rare even in the world of ninjas, and the corpses on the ground are barely recognizable.

The remaining cuts of flesh around the corpse were short and uneven, and it looked like they had been carefully removed with a small blade, but reason told everyone that this was not a corpse that could be caused by a man-made blade, but something that only the rats that had been causing panic in the Temple of Fire for days could do.

And this time, the panic caused by the rats finally escalated into panic.

"It's a mouse! Those rats did it! ”

The monks behind Di Lu let out a roar, which made the monks who had been awakened in the middle of the night and were in a very uncomfortable mood even more difficult to suppress the fear in their hearts.

[Get 740 Trembling Points from Huineng!] 】

[Get 310 shiver points from the Psychic Sense!] 】

...

"Calm down!"

A roar from the earth and a voice as bright as a bell echoed among the monks, diverting some of the monks' attention from the rats.

"Huineng stayed, explained the situation to me, and the others immediately went out to count the number of people, and if they found that someone was missing, report to me immediately!"

Under the majesty of the earth, the monks came out of the narrow passage of the cellar, leaving more space for the cellar.

"Huineng, what's going on?" As the other monks walked away, Di Lu immediately asked.

"It's... It was the middle of the night when I heard the sound of rats in my room, and I was worried that the vegetables in the cellar might be infested by rats, so I went to take a look. ”

"As a result... When I got here, I saw that it had become like this! ”

"There were several huge rats crawling on top of this corpse! They're gnawing on the flesh of the corpse! ”

Huineng's statement was simple, he was only the first discoverer of the corpse, and the ninja monk was already frightened by the scene he had seen at the time.

In the past month, the depression, irritability, and panic caused by the rat in the heart of this ninja monk finally exploded at this moment.

"Okay, there's nothing for you to do here, you can go out first."

Jilu sent Hui Neng out of here, then turned his head to look at Jiraiya who was contemplative, and asked, "Jiraiya-sama, do you see what's coming?" ”

When Jilu opened his mouth to drive people away just now, he just drove all the monks in the temple away, but he didn't let Jiraiya leave here, and Jiraiya and Naruto also consciously did not leave.

Jiraiya walked to the corner and carefully observed the shelves where the vegetables were placed.

The vegetables on these shelves have not been eaten, they are all intact, and it seems that the rats that have poured out of their nests have not looted the vegetables here, but have directly targeted the people in the cellar.

But underneath the vegetable cabinet shelves, there are rows of very dense mousetraps.

All of these traps are in a triggered state at this time, but there is not a single mouse hair on them.

Jiraiya recalled the dream he had just had, why those huge rats in it appeared in his dream for no reason.

Is that what kind of inspiration is?

I'm not sure, because I've carefully studied the people who have discovered strange creatures from the other world and learned about them.

They all saw those monsters with their own eyes, and suddenly knew about these monsters at a certain moment.

But he was sure that he had never seen such a large rat anywhere else, and that the rats were not as weird as he thought.

The man-eating rat in the dream is structurally like a normal mouse, and does not look like an insect like the Xiagai Zerg, but if you pay close attention to it, you will find that it is structurally very different from an insect, and it is a difference that can cause great psychological fear to people at a glance.

These man-eating rats are similar in structure to normal mice, except that they have a more intimidating body size than normal rats, and fangs that have become more powerful due to their increased size.

Or maybe the scene is more terrifying, so that these man-eaters have a stronger, disgusting, and terrifying ability.

Wait a minute!

How do I know those rats are man-eating rats?

Jiraiya's brain finally realized a Hua point, which is a very natural and incomparably clear cognitive change that Jiraiya himself is not aware of.

From the moment the sleep ended, Jiraiya's brain had already thought that the mice in the dream were man-eating rats.

Man-eating rats, as the name suggests, are man-eating rats.

And the "blooming" corpse in front of him is a human corpse!

When he realized this change, Jiraiya's tall body couldn't help but shake slightly, but it quickly stabilized again.

"Jiraiya-sama? What's wrong with you? ”

Jirai's voice was pulled back from deep thought, and Jiraiya picked up the broken eyes he saw when he first came in from a dark corner where the lantern couldn't shine.

"These eyes... Are there any other people in your temple who wear glasses? ”

Jiraiya wanted to ask the name directly, but that was too straightforward, and it was a little more tactful.

Seeing this pair of eyes, Di Lu immediately thought of a person's name, and said with a pale face: "In addition to protecting the heart, there should be no other monks wearing glasses in the temple..."

At this moment, a hurried footstep came from the passage.

The three people in the cellar followed the sound and saw a short figure appear at the door of the cellar.

"What's going on?"

The person who came was the young Kong, although the earth and land reacted instantly, and wanted to drive the air out of here, but it was too late.

Sora immediately saw the familiar glasses in Jiraiya's hand, and then looked at the ground again.

The miserable blur of flesh and blood hit the empty eyeballs, and the empty body immediately shook three times, almost falling.

At this moment, the footsteps of the monks were heard behind the passage.

The monk who came over stood on the steps and reported to Jiluta, "The number of monks in the temple has been counted, and everyone else is there except for the heart guard and the empty one. ”

"According to other monks in the same bedroom, after washing up, he found that he had not returned to the bedroom, so he went out to look for it, and he never came back."

"As for why the void disappeared, no one knows."

At this point, the monk who reported no longer wanted to look directly at the cruel scene in the center of the cellar, so he turned his perspective to the side, just in time to see the empty lying on the ground.

Although there is only one back, it is still very recognizable as the only monk with hair in the temple.

"Empty! Why are you here? ”

Sora, who was kneeling on the ground, did not pay attention to the monk's question, but cried out in pain.

"It's me..."

"I killed the heart!"
