Xinghua Village is a small village with a population of less than 1,000 at the foot of the Yushouzong Mountain Range.

Although there are more than 100 households, the main road can be regarded as lively in the past, and there are often vendors shouting and pawns coming and going.

However, when Su Wan'er and the others arrived, they only saw empty streets and closed doors.

In addition to Su Wan'er, Liang An, and Tao Yu, there are also Lu Renjia and his spirit pet pangolin, Guo Luke and his spirit pet egret.

The egret flew around the village, and inquired about the news and learned: "This big demon only eats children, children under the age of five in Xinghua Village, lose one every day, even if they are under the nose of their parents all the time, they will be swept away by a sudden black wind, and there will be no news." ”

"Under five?" Su Wan'er's gaze subconsciously fell on Tao Yu, "Then we just have a bait." ”

Bait Momo Yu shrunk her neck, hugged Liang An's big hairy tail that turned into a wolf, and muttered quietly.

Sometimes it's not good to pretend to be mentally retarded, for example, at this time, you don't have the confidence to tear Su Wan'er directly.

"It is said that this demon likes to act at night, and specifically looks for those who hang children's clothes outside the house to determine whether the family's children can be stolen, and nowadays almost no one will hang children's clothes outside at night, so we can ......" Egret winked at Momo, "picked up Little Momo's clothes!" ”

Now it is the season of spring flowers, so Tao Yu only wore a single dress and went out, and as soon as the clothes were peeled off, she became a hooligan child with her upper body naked, and she was still a little girl......

These adults really don't give any face!

She put her sleek body on Liang An's big back, hid in the thick hair, and cried: The baby who doesn't have a senior brother hurts is so miserable.

At night, it rained, and several people stared at the small clothes soaked in the rain in the courtyard of the inn where they were staying, waiting for the big demon to take the bait.

It rained all night, but the big demon didn't come.

The dark circles under the eyes of several people were deeper than the other.

Su Wan'er came to her senses: "Maybe it doesn't want to steal children in the rain." ”

But the egret flew around and came back and said, "The child of the old Wang family next door is gone!" And people didn't dry their clothes! ”

Liang An slapped his thigh angrily: "This big demon is not authentic, and he doesn't play cards according to common sense!" ”

Tao Yu stretched out her little fat hand and pointed to the empty clothesline in the courtyard, and asked, "Baby's clothes pinch?" ”

Lu Renjia rushed into the rain curtain to look around, until he found the old Wang's house next door, and then he was shocked: "Ah! Yesterday the wind was strong and blew next door! ”

Su Wan'er had a bad premonition, and sure enough, while she was eating breakfast, Lao Wang's family next door came to the door.

"I heard that a few immortal elders came to catch demons, we provided food and accommodation for a few of them for free, a few of them are quite comfortable, my son was captured by the demon last night, where are you?"

"We are here", Su Wan'er said without face.

To tell the truth, there was a courtyard wall across it, and the demon came quietly, and none of them even smelled the demonic breath, and it was a shame to say it.

"How is your child safe and sound?" The woman of the Wang family pointed to Tao Yu and cried.

"Hey! Don't be blind, this is my senior sister, and I'm here to hunt demons! Liang An guarded the woman and waved the woman's hand away.

The woman was so vigorously pushed by him that she fell to the ground, and when she did not get up, she lay on the ground and wept, and the cry was so loud that half of the village came to watch.

"I heard that the demon likes to eat infants, how can we mortal children have any spirits? It's better to directly sacrifice this immortal cultivator to satisfy the big demon! "Someone proposed.

Immediately attracted a group of people to second: "That's right! Sacrifice her to the Great Demon! ”

Su Wan'er said angrily: "Do you know where the big demon lives?" It's funny to dedicate it to the past! If we had known where it lived, we would have killed it! How can I stand here now and give you the opportunity to blame? ”

"Every time the big demon comes back, the west wind blows, it must come from the west, and the west side of the village entrance often has its black feathers!" Someone said.

"Senior Brother Lu, check it out, black feathers, bird demons, like to steal children at night, is there a record?" Su Wan'er asked Lu Renjia.

Lu Renjia immediately flipped through the booklet of the storage bag and came to the conclusion: "It may be Gu Won Bird!" She is the obsession of the dead mother, the clothes and hair are birds, the hair is a woman, she likes to steal other people's children back to raise, often holding the baby in the night walk, the baby's cry is like her cry, extremely sad and gloomy! ”

"That's right, my family lives on the west side of the village, and I often hear babies crying at night! It's weird, it's weird! Some enthusiastic people spoke.

Su Wan'er pondered for a moment and decided: "Then we will stay at the west entrance of the village tonight and hang Xiao Taotao directly outside the house, Xiao Taotao is so cute, I don't believe she doesn't steal!" ”

"Senior sister is right!" Lu Renjia said.

"Senior sister is right, senior brother is right!" Guo Luke said.

Liang An glanced at Tao Yu sympathetically.

What else can Tao Yu say besides pretending to be confused?

~

The residents in the west of the village vacated their houses for Su Wan'er and others to move in, and they also set up a solid hanger for them with great enthusiasm.

The night breeze was blowing, and the peach gardenia was hung on the shelf, listening to the cicadas and frogs, and deeply felt the literal meaning of "drying the baby".

Luckily, it didn't rain tonight.

Tao Yu took out the flatbread that Liang An had baked for her during the day, and gnawed on it heartlessly.

An hour passed, but the bird did not come.

Two hours passed, but the bird still didn't come.

Momo Yu was so sleepy that her upper and lower eyelids fought, and she fell asleep with her head hanging down.

Although it was in a hanging position, fortunately, Su Wan'er and the others had a conscience and put a soft brace under her buttocks to make her not so uncomfortable.

So not long after Tao Yu fell asleep, she snored, and the snoring sound was even and smooth, which was extra helpful for sleep.

As a result, Su Wan'er and the others in the room listened to it, and they also fell asleep.

It didn't take long for the cicadas and frogs around to fall silent, and there was silence inside and outside the house.

A pair of black wings fell from the sky, and the movements were cautious, without setting off any wind, so they didn't wake up the sleeping Momo.

Then, the huge wings were propped up on the ground, and a little girl of seven or eight years old came out of the wings and walked slowly towards the peach garden.

She was wearing a very tattered shirt, and several holes were even rotten and moldy, but her skin was clean and snow-white, as if there was no blood, even her lips were gray, and a pair of empty eyes were pitch black, and there was no whites of the eyes, but when she saw the round peach gardenia, she suddenly gave birth to a greedy luster.

The little girl stood a foot away from Momoyu, stopped, and then stretched out her hand.

Her nails quickly lengthened and sharpened, piercing Momo's heart like knives......
