Chapter 187: Walking Upside Down (I)

When Qin Fei and Xie Nanai returned to Mushroom Village, the sky had completely darkened.

And the people in the mushroom village have almost all returned to their houses at this moment.

For a moment, the whole village was surprisingly quiet.

After making sure that the people in the mushroom village were not attacked by the nameless monster and died, Qin Fei transferred the object of suspicion to the interior of the village.

After all, apart from the nameless monster, Qin Fei really couldn't think of any kind of creature in the 'aberration' world that could break into the village and 'drain' people's bodies without being discovered.

After Qin Fei ruled out all the possibilities he could think of, he came to only one conclusion: this matter was probably man-made!

Night fell, but Qin Fei and Xie Nanai, who were staying in the room, did not rest at the moment.

The two of them stayed on the couch, their bodies covered in black mist.

A few seconds later, Qin Fei and Xie Nanai each turned into a cloud of black mist and slowly floated out of the mushroom room.

Qin Fei wanted to use the skill of 'Shadow Form' to sneak outside the house at night to see if he could find some clues.

After Qin Fei came outside the house, he was not attacked in any way.

Sure enough, everything was as Qin Fei expected, when he turned on the 'Shadow Form', he would not be attacked by the Nameless Monster even at night.

In this way, it became much easier for Qin Fei to go out at night to inquire about the news.

At least he wouldn't expose himself so easily.

Opening the 'Shadow Form' required the consumption of his own physical strength, and with Qin Fei's current strength, he could only maintain this state for a few minutes at most.

It didn't take long for Qin Fei to float back into the mushroom house.

"How?"

After Qin Fei changed back into a human form from the black mist, he sat on the bed and gasped for breath, and said to Xie Nanai: "I didn't see it here.... Basically everyone is sleeping. ”

"Me too...."

Xie Nana's physical strength was worse than Qin Fei's, and after she turned back into her human form, she simply fell directly on the bed and couldn't move.

Tonight, Qin Fei and Xie Nanai inspected almost half of the village, but they didn't find any special circumstances.

But that's normal.

After all, although villagers in the mushroom village sometimes die violently in their houses, this phenomenon does not happen every day.

Anyway, it will have to be a day or two apart.

The next day, Qin Fei and Xie Nanai continued to search the situation, but nothing happened in the village.

[New Mission: Survive the Aberrations for 30 Days!] 】

[Survival Countdown: 28 days]

The frog meat that Qin Fei had obtained from the Toad King before had already been eaten by now.

Therefore, in addition to going to his house at night to collect clues, Qin Fei also caught a new elephant near the village during the day.

The new elephant will be able to feed him for many days.

……

[Countdown to survival: 26 days]

Tonight is the fourth day that Qin Fei has come to the world of aberration.

After nightfall, Qin Fei turned into a black mist again and slowly floated out of the house.

But as soon as he floated out far, Qin Fei heard a sound of footsteps not far away.

The sound was very soft.

No, it's not quite like human footsteps. The sound sounded more like that of some smaller animal, made while walking....

Qin Fei quickly thought of the nameless monster.

Could it be that thing slipped into the village?

Although the sound of footsteps was very slight, the current Qin Fei's physical fitness was far better than before.

Naturally, Qin Fei's various senses, including his own hearing, have also been greatly improved.

With his extraordinary hearing, Qin Fei, who had turned into a black mist, quickly found the source of the footsteps.

It turned out that the owner of this footstep was actually a living person! And the reason why this person's footsteps sound weird is because this person has been walking upside down!

I see!

Qin Fei's eyes showed a hint of realization.

If you touch the ground with the palm of your hand, the sound will be much smaller than if you were walking with your feet....

But what was the purpose of the man's handstand?

Is it just to cover up your footsteps?

You must know that in order to prevent being attacked by nameless monsters at night, the people in the village generally do not go out at will.

Therefore, there is no need for the murderer to walk upside down to hide people's ears and eyes.

Because at night, no one in the village will come out of the house!

The most important thing is that this person is not like Qin Fei, who has a special skill such as 'Shadow Form', which can evade the tracking of the Nameless Monster.

He ran out at night, why wasn't he attacked by those nameless monsters?

Because it is at night, and the mushroom village is built underground, the surrounding environment can be said to be invisible.

Even with Qin Fei's eyesight, in this case, he could only barely see the silhouette of the other party.

Qin Fei could roughly see that this person was not tall.

As for its specific appearance, it is impossible to see.

But Qin Fei didn't plan to light the torch and recognize this person.

Because there's no point in doing that.

This person has not killed anyone at present, if Qin Fei rashly recognizes this person, not only will it not play a role, but it will also easily startle the snake.

Once this person raised his vigilance, it would be almost impossible for Qin Fei to follow him and catch him properly.

It's better to follow along.

After following for a while, Qin Fei found that although this person was walking upside down, his speed was not much slower than that of a normal person.

After all, Qin Fei couldn't maintain his shadow form for a long time, and it didn't take long for him to find that his physical strength was a little unable to keep up.

Therefore, Qin Fei no longer continued to follow this strange man, but slowly floated back to his mushroom room.

At the same time, Xie Nanai had already returned to the room.

After she saw Qin Fei coming back, she hurriedly said to him: "There is no one at the village chief's place, I deliberately waited for a while, but he didn't come back..."

After Qin Fei heard Xie Nanai's words, he was thoughtful.

The information that Xie Nanai gathered was crucial.

Combined with the strange man Qin Fei had seen before, it was not difficult to guess that this guy walking upside down should be the village chief of Mushroom Village....

But the problem is that the head of the mushroom village is not elected by the villagers.

The old man who became the head of the village was elected according to the rule that 'whoever lives the longest will listen to whomever he wants'.

Therefore, the village chief is very old.

Judging from the appearance of this old man, he is estimated to be in his seventies, and he can't even walk a few steps.

If that weirdo is really the village chief.... So how exactly did he manage to walk upside down?

Early the next morning.

Early this morning, Qin Fei heard the news that a villager in the village had been killed.

Soon, he saw the corpse of the deceased being carried out by the villagers outside the house.

As in the case of the previous deceased, this time the deceased had been completely drained by the time the villagers found him.

All this man is left with a set of skins and bones....

After seeing this person's death, Qin Fei immediately thought of the village chief.

Even the most frantic murderer cannot make the 'flesh' of the deceased disappear out of thin air.

Unless the murderer is not human at all!

So....

Is the head of the mushroom village a monster becoming?

Thinking of this, Qin Fei turned his head and looked at an old man standing in the center of the crowd.

This man is the head of Mushroom Village.
