Chapter 6: The Monster of the Night

"What time is it?"

Yang Xu asked.

"Sixty-twenty."

Li Hao took out his mobile phone and looked at it.

"Forty minutes to go, by the way, do you know when those shadows will reappear?"

"At seven o'clock the next morning, they will suddenly appear behind those who have gone out."

"We may not last a few days, and if we haven't gone out today, we may...."

Zhang Qingling looked at Li Hao worriedly.

Li Hao is also quite confused, what do you think I am doing, I should look at Brother Yang! At first glance, Brother Yang is professional.

However, at this time, Li Hao still felt that he had to be manly, and straightened his chest: "I think Qingling, you are right. ”

"I have to go out today, and I'll wait until seven o'clock to get started."

"I think Brother Yang is right."

Li Hao echoed.

Yang Xu looked at the three of them, and frowned: "Will we go out together or separately for a while?" ”

"Let's do it together."

Zhang Qingling said, and at the same time clenched Li Hao's hand.

Li Hao looked at the girl with a sharp heart and nodded: "Live and die together." ”

Yang Xu was indifferent, looked at Zhang Qingling and her mother, and seeing that she was also nodding, Yang Xu said, "Then let's prepare." ”

"Prepare what?"

Li Hao said curiously.

"Conserve your strength, and at the same time find how many small mirrors there are at home, and smash the big mirror for me without a small mirror."

"With a mirror, we can see what's behind us, and we have more security."

Yang Xu explained.

"Brother Yang, you are so smart, I'll go find it for you."

Li Hao had already thrown himself to the ground for Yang Xu's admiration, and at this time, Yang Xu was a little yin, so he ran to do it.

"Don't walk together for a while, and if something happens, we can warn each other. And of course, don't go too far, four steps away from each person. ”

Yang Xu continued.

Zhang Qingling and her mother both nodded.

"Then let's recover our strength now."

Li Hao also came at this time, he brought four small mirrors, which were broken, and distributed these mirrors, and whispered to Zhang Qingling.

Yang Xu turned around and didn't want to disturb the couple, and turned his gaze to the window.

The pupils of his eyes shrank suddenly.

He saw a dark shadow wandering, but the difference was that it had a black thread above its head, exuding an eerie aura. If you look closely, its limbs are not as flexible as those of a living animal, and it has a stiff feeling.

This made Yang Xu think of something, puppets.

Marionettes.

If these shadows are just puppets, then who is the person controlling the puppets? Thinking of this, Yang Xu broke out in a cold sweat.

It's not these monsters that are really threatening, it's the strange creatures behind them.

"Let's hope everything goes well...."

Yang Xu muttered to himself.

.......

Time flies.

In an instant, it was seven o'clock.

Yang Xu gently pushed open the door and beckoned to signal that it was okay. The three people in the back flocked to the ground, and Yang Xu was the first to lie on the ground, it was very dark at night, but his eyes were faintly shining, and all the darkness was hidden under these eyes.

"Keep up."

He crawled forward quickly, and although the shadow was gone, who knew what other dangers there were at night.

However, I heard that those people can come back, so there should be no mortal threat at night.

Just when Yang Xu was thinking in his heart, suddenly a black shadow burst out, acting like a fox, but Yang Xu stopped in fear.

It was, no, it should have been a turquoise human-skin ball monster, it had no feet, but its hands were exceptionally strong, swaying from side to side, not much slower than a dog, and its mouth was three-quarters of the way out, inlaid with sharp teeth, interlaced with canine teeth, and two green bean-like eyes radiated an oily green light.

"Come inside!"

Yang Xu exclaimed.

But it was too late, and the monster had already spotted a man who had swooped down on her face.

"No!"

It was the woman's exclamation.

It was Zhang Qingling's mother, and before she could react, she was directly bitten off by the monster.

"Mom!"

Zhang Qingling was grief-stricken.

The monster did not leave after eating the human head, but opened its mouth, this strange behavior shocked Yang Xu in his heart, he held the kitchen knife he took from Zhang Qingling's house in his hand, and now only this can give him a sense of security.

Li Hao and Zhang Qingling didn't have eyes like Yang Xu, and after hearing the sound of a broken neck and an exclamation, they both quickly walked towards Zhang Qingling's mother's approach.

"Wait! Don't go! ”

Yang Xu hurriedly grabbed the two of them.

He clearly saw that after the monster ate Zhang Qingling's mother's head, his whole body was like a puddle of liquid, squirming rapidly. At the same time, a brand-new head grew out of Zhang Qingling's mother's body.

Monster!

Yang Xu's heart was turbulent, what kind of monster is this!

The newly grown head smiled evilly at Yang Xu, his eyes were a little dull, and he suddenly shouted: "My daughter, why can't you come back." ”

When Zhang Qingling heard that her mother was fine, her heart was relieved: "I'll come now." ”

"Wait!"

Yang Xu grabbed Zhang Qingling.

"It's not an aunt anymore! Auntie had just been eaten off her head by that monster, and now the monster had taken on her form. If you go, you will die! ”

"Let's retreat!"

Yang Xu motioned to Li Hao to pull Zhang Qingling back to the house, while he confronted the monster in front of him.

"No, that's my mom, I don't believe it!"

Zhang Qingling broke free from Yang Xu's shackles and went straight to her "mother".

"Stupid!"

Yang Xu scolded angrily, and followed regardless of his own safety, and Li Hao also followed.

"You're here."

When the monster saw the man coming, he grinned, this smile was nothing, but it was so large that the whole face was occupied from the left and right.

"Ah!!h

Zhang Qingling only saw her "mother" clearly at this time, is the person who can grin such a big mouth still her mother?

Of course not.

It's a monster!

She screamed in amazement.

The sound woke up the quiet community.

Yang Xu's heart twitched, this stupid woman is willing to kill us!

"Let's go !!"

He didn't run away, he raised the kitchen knife, aimed at the head of Zhang Qingling's "mother", and slashed it hard!

Boom!

As if he had slashed a hard object, the kitchen knife was plunged directly into the head of Zhang Qingling's "mother". At this time, Li Hao had already run to the door with Zhang Qingling, and when he came out, Yang Xu specially told them not to close the door, which was also convenient for them to escape at this time.

Scarlet blood flowed from Zhang Qingling's "mother's" forehead, but she didn't seem to feel pain, stared at Yang Xu directly, smiled evilly, opened her huge mouth and rushed over, Yang Xu was also decisive, directly dropped the kitchen knife, a carp rolled, and rushed to Zhang Qingling's door.

"Come on, Brother Yang!"

Li Hao at the door was half-covering the door at this time and beckoned to Yang Xu.

Yang Xu rushed forward fiercely and flew directly into the house.

Puff~

The door was closed by Li Hao.

Yang Xu exhaled heavily.

Li Hao hurriedly came up: "Brother Yang, are you okay?" ”

Yang Xu shook his head: "I'm fine, it seems that the people who went out at night before should all be dead." ”

"I should have noticed it then! Even if the night is foggy, how can people see it! There are no street lights in the cloud! The man came back and said that it was foggy at night, and that it was cloudy and that it was no longer human! ”

Yang Xu clenched his fists hatefully.

"I don't blame you for this, Brother Yang."

Li Hao's mood was also very low at this time, and Zhang Qingling's face looked very bad.

"Brother Yang, that monster won't break in, will it?"

Yang Xu shook his head: "I'm not sure, there is a high probability that it won't, because if they break the door, there will be no living people now." ”

"So it's safe now?"

Li Hao's expression was a little relaxed.

Yang Xu nodded: "I'm afraid the night is more dangerous than the day, now let's not go out, wait until seven o'clock in the morning on a cloudy day to act." ”

The monster was moving too fast, and if it was targeted, there was basically no chance of survival. Yang Xu sorted out his thoughts, fortunately they had just walked out not far away, otherwise I am afraid that they would also be unlucky.

Nothing was said all night.

Zhang Qingling's spirit showed some signs of collapse, but with Li Hao's presence, she was able to stabilize again.

Yang Xu had a small meeting overnight, and he didn't sleep anymore, he and Li Hao took turns to keep vigil, and the next day just after dawn, he began to prepare a series of work.

First, he looked at the system panel, and the thirty-two people in the mission brief had become twenty-two. The others are still the same, and it has obviously become a luxury to get the C-level lottery, but Yang Xu didn't feel pity, the danger factor was too high, he couldn't be a fool, and he had to do it if he knew he couldn't do it.

"We're ready to go."

"Remember, don't look back."

Yang Xu admonished again.

He glanced at Zhang Qingling, the other party's expression was a little wooden, obviously the blow had not been good. But at this time, Yang Xu didn't have the heart to care about this, and motioned for Li Hao to bring Zhang Qingling.

And the three of them set off.

It was still extraordinarily quiet, and Yang Xu saw those strange and tall black shadows on the road again, they were all pulled by a black line in the sky. But after Yang Xu's eyes mutated, the road he saw again was different from yesterday.

It was surrounded by the same staggered roads, but it has become a main road, which is the main road of the community, leading directly to the gate.

And on this road stood a dark shadow, which did not wander around like the others, but stood still.

Faced with this only way out, Yang Xu did not hesitate and moved forward with the two people behind him. But suddenly, Li Hao quickly advanced to Yang Xu's side from behind: "Brother Yang, there is a wall in front." ”

"Come with me!"

Yang Xu didn't explain anything, and rushed directly to the "wall", Li Hao wanted to stop it, but he didn't expect Yang Xu to go straight through, and there were bursts of ripples on the wall, without the slightest impact. Li Hao didn't hesitate, and pulled Zhang Qingling into it.
