Chapter 40: Monsters
Chen Erniu jumped up from the collapse, tore the clothes on the side of the bed, put a set on his body indiscriminately, pulled his son and ran out of the door, and hurriedly asked:
"What the fuck!"
The son of the Chen family called Chen Sanshui, and was anxiously reaching out to take down the long knife on the wall, and shouted:
"Daddy, bring a knife, Daddy, bring a knife! Say it on the way! ”
Chen Erniu took the long knife, wrapped it around his waist, and ran towards the village with big strides.
"A villager got up at night to patrol the fields, and felt that Suosuo looked like someone in the field, and the villager thought that someone was doing that in the field, so he quickly hid and went to peek, but saw a bloody corpse without the back of his head, and he was so frightened that he was urinating on the spot."
Chen Sanshui said as he hurriedly followed Chen Erniu.
"How did you die?"
"The back of the head was broken, the brain marrow was gouged out, and the death was miserable."
As soon as he heard this, Chen Erniu hurriedly stopped and said in surprise:
"Can I send someone to inform the master?"
"Never ......"
Chen Sanshui replied with some hesitation.
"Idiot! Can you keep this a secret?! ”
Chen Erniu immediately jumped like thunder, and shouted with hatred.
"I've already consulted with the man and the families in Tanabe...... Tell them not to make a noise first, the first murder case in the past few years is in my Lichuankou, I'm afraid that Xu Wenshan is not good for my father! ”
Chen Sanshui saw that his father was anxious, and hurriedly explained.
"Idiot! This man had his brain gouged out! ”
"This ......"
Chen Sanshui saw his father's face frightened, and couldn't help but slow down half a beat, and seemed to have a good taste.
"Ordinary murder can gouge out the brain marrow?! What's more, Xu Wenshan and I are fighting to show others, and the two of them are very satisfied with each other, can he Xu Wenshan fall into the well and harm me? Hurt me to offend more than 100 families in this pear and river mouth? ”
"Your brothers are as stupid as pigs, then Xu Wenshan is still younger than me, if I am not here in the future, what are you waiting to fight with others?!"
"Father's ......"
This interrogation shocked Chen Sanshui with shame, lowered his head and said no more.
Chen Erniu lowered his face, his heart was extremely depressed, and he said coldly:
"I'm afraid that there will be monsters to worship, so you go and inform the master in person."
Chen Sanshui nodded vigorously, and hurriedly went towards Lijing Village, Chen Erniu looked at the eldest son and went away, his face finally had a little horror and sadness, and said softly:
"I don't know how many catties and taels this monster is, Sanshui's eyes are brighter, and he can leave an heir for my Chen family."
Chen Erniu had personally experienced the terrible drought at the mouth of the river, when he was young and sitting in front of the door and playing, watching the big finches covered in red flames fall on the mouth of the river, swallowing a few villagers like insects and then flapping their wings, leaving the fields of hot air for three months.
The surviving villagers ate everything that could be eaten near the mouth of the Lichuan River, scooped up the river water from the Meiqi River, poured it into the ground but disappeared, Chen Erniu's father picked up a load of water, watered the ground for nine days, and committed suicide with his starving wife.
Chen Erniu left the bodies of his parents, gritted his teeth and fled to Lijing Village with tears in his eyes, knocked his head out of the ground, and finally entered Li's house.
At this time, every household in Lijing Village was full of fellow villagers who fled a few days ago, and some people tried to hit the big households, but they were beaten to death by the tenants who were still fellow villagers a few days ago, and more people had to bury their heads and rush to Dali Mountain.
Three months later, the people slowly returned, and no one dared to mention that day, and no one dared to mention how the more than 100 people who stayed in the village survived, and the people silently buried the licked and clean human bones, and there were only more than 300 people left in Ishikawaguchi, which was originally nearly 300 households and 1,400 people.
Seeing the fire flashing in front of him, and suddenly waking up from his memories, Chen Erniu pushed away the second son Chen Qiushui who came to greet him, raised the torch, and looked at the bloody corpse that fell to the ground with an empty brain, and was already in tears, gritting his teeth and saying:
"Who is this?"
"The old leaf at the head of the village."
Chen Qiushui looked at the tears on his father's face, his heart was uneasy, and he replied in a low voice.
"Go and call the whole village, light the fire, and take the knife and stick."
Chen Erniu gave a low order, but saw a villager coming in a hurry from the front of the village, and when he saw him, he said:
"Chen is in charge, Chen is in charge! The host came to ask: Is there anything strange about Ikawaguchi? ”
Chen Erniu was stunned for a moment, his heart was horrified, and he was full of doubts, and thought:
"How can there be such a fast speed from Lichuan to Lijing! If there is an eyeliner in the village, this time and again can not be so fast, I am afraid that the village will die, and the master will know, there should be some means to deal with the monster. ”
The frowning eyebrows suddenly relaxed, Chen Erniu's heart relaxed a lot, and replied loudly:
"I'm afraid that there will be monsters in the village, so I've sent someone to inform the master!"

Li Xiangping silently looked at the blue-gray jianzi on the stage, the broken mirror seemed to have recovered a little compared with when he picked it up when he was a child, but it still looked like it would be broken at any time, and a faint silver-white light emanated from the mirror, which looked quite dreamy.
"How long has the man been there?"
"It's been a quarter of an hour."
Li Tongya looked out the window anxiously, put down the wooden tablet in his hand, and said again:
"It's time for me to go out, I'm afraid that those people won't see us and will break the rules to come to this backyard."
"Let's go!"
Li Xiangping looked at Li Xuanxuan, who was sitting cross-legged, and said in a deep voice.
When I got out of the backyard, I saw Li Yesheng like ants on a hot pot in the main courtyard, and when I saw Li Tongya, my eyes lit up, and I hurriedly said:
"Ikawaguchi sent someone to say that someone had their brains gouged out!"
"Gouging out the brain marrow?"
Li Xiangping was stunned, looked at Li Tongya and said:
"I'm afraid there's a monster."
"Not bad."
Li Tongya nodded solemnly, thought for a few breaths, and said in a deep voice:
"That monster dug out the brain marrow and retreated, it should still be afraid of people, the cultivation will not be too high, it must still be in the fetal breath realm, if it is the qi training period, it can kill the whole village and drive away."
"I'll take a look!"
Li Xiangping pondered for a few breaths, frowned slightly, and said to Li Yesheng:
"Call the strong men of the village and bring weapons."
"Yes!"
Li Yesheng responded a few times and hurriedly went down, and when he saw Li Yesheng walking away, Li Tongya frowned and said:
"I don't know the depth of that monster, you and I shouldn't go."
"If I don't go today, the prestige that my Li family has worked hard to run in these villages will be over, and I have to go!"
"Second brother, you are guarding the mountain, I will go to investigate, you know my temperament, I will not take risks."
"Even if something happens, my Li family still has you, it's a big deal to give up Lichuankou and ask for help from the sect."
After that, Li Xiangping nodded towards Li Tongya, took his bow and arrows, put on his yellow-brown rattan robe, and hurriedly went down the mountain.
