Chapter 11: The Demon 1
"I feel it, the wind that is holding me back from flowing."
Almost every household in the village is brightened, candles and lamps that were once reluctant to light are turned on, and after the people who have participated and are being mobilized, almost the whole village knows that there is a big man here today.
The people in the village, where the day is warm and the night is cold, once they hear a lot of things related to their surroundings, they suddenly don't care about the cold.
If someone in the family is called over, they get up in a hurry, and if they don't move, the others live in their own homes, and they are very excited.
No one noticed, and the cold wind was a bit noisy tonight.
The figure in the woods, under the pitch-black cloak that obscured his face, was a pair of amber vertical pupils that faintly reflected the light in the moonlight.
This body shrouded in the figure under the black robe faintly consciously flew out slowly, like an illusory black shadow, which was originally inconspicuous, but now in the darkness without light, no one could find it silently.
The black shadow drifted along the road in the darkness, came to the courtyard wall, and finally turned over through the wall, and stood silently in front of the window.
The whole of the dilapidated courtyard is nailed with wooden boards, and the windows are specially thickened wooden strips, and the interior is blocked by wooden planks nailed with wooden strips.
In the cracks of the wooden panels of these windows, the figure quietly observed what was happening in the room.
In front of Wang Xing just now, although the village chief whispered, in the village, he was the absolute overlord here. After arriving in the courtyard, he directly pushed open the door and asked his family to contribute to the village by name.
"Your existence has offended the church many times, and if I hadn't sheltered you, you would have starved to death in the wilderness. This time, it's because you drank too much and provoked a big shot, I've already told you that you can only stay after admitting your mistakes, otherwise I won't continue to indulge you! ”
The man who was dragging his wife in the yard and yelling before obediently took off his hat at this time, lowered his head, and nodded once when he heard a word.
After hearing that he needed to contribute his eldest daughter to the family at the end, the man finally couldn't help it.
"Mei is mine, and it was not easy to cultivate it for so many years, and with his appearance, even if you go to the city, you can find a good family to serve."
"Yes, she's beautiful, but where is this place! Did you walk past! Since you want her to go to the city so much, why don't you dispose of the beasts around the village and escort her away? ”
The village chief slapped the table in annoyance and shouted, "Don't forget, it was you who knelt in front of my door, desperately trying to stay here, and it was I who blocked the church's accountability!" While everyone is paying, you are still here to do your little thoughts! ”
Being insulted to the point of pain, the man's thin fingers holding the hat clutched the hat tightly, but the reality was in front of him. He didn't have the ability to leave him, so he could only grit his teeth and lower his head and roar: "Go, let Mei and the village chief leave!" ”
Mei, who was leaning against the door, turned pale. Although she tried hard to help the family with all kinds of farm work every day, she could still hear that almost every day the two people in the family were about to send him away.
As for the fact that she would be taken away, she had known for a long time that there would be such a day. It's just that when the day of the real sending away didn't come, she was still able to hold on, and now, all the feelings she had for her family collapsed.
The sound of cramped footsteps outside the door could be easily heard by her mother.
Knowing her next fate, Mei felt as if someone was watching her from the window.
Suddenly retracting from her trance, Mei wiped away her tears with the clean part of her sleeve, took a few steps forward and stopped blocking the door with her back, rubbed her face, and turned around.
Crunch~
The door opened, and Mei's mother came over and whispered a few words of comfort, telling Mei to quickly follow the village chief away.
"Remember, listen to the village chief and those big people, work diligently, and do whatever you want......"
Mei didn't remember much of the babbling words and the village chief's comfort. After she reacted in a panic, she was already taken to take a hot shower and put on a new set of clothes.
The others had already left, leaving her alone to go to the stone house in the village to take good care of the adults who were bathing.
May walked on the quiet plank, and the freshly cut wood walked hard, not like in his attic, creaking on the board.
But just as he drew closer to the door to greet her future, he heard something faintly hear.
"Who?"
A neutral voice came from the house.
Mei froze and was stunned for two seconds, and was about to speak, when suddenly, it seemed to be the sound of something heavy slapping. Mei is very familiar with the fact that when the younger brother and sister of the family are playing, they will always pull up the wooden plank behind the window and smash the wooden plank that has been turned up and down against the window frame.
It's just that the sound here is more muffled, it's not the sound of wood colliding against each other, it's the sound of wood hitting stone.
Then, as soon as Mei's mouth opened, a strange laughter was heard in her ears even through the stone walls and thick wooden doors.
"Didn't you already say it, it's our territory nearby, why are there still people who don't know whether they are alive or dead?"
'What sound?' Mei subconsciously lightened her steps, and she quietly walked to the door, only to notice that the thick wooden door was not completely closed, but a crack in the door was exposed.
On the other side of the door, the room is full of oil lamps and candles, and it must be bright, and as you swim left and right along the crack of the door, you can see the detailed furnishings of the room along a vertical slit.
The plush bed, the large space, the burning fireplace, the exquisite tables and chairs that the village carpenter could not make for many years, covered with red ornate cloth, some fruits and meat to eat and drink, and packed in a few silver plates.
'It's luxurious! ’
May thought so, but as her gaze continued to move to the right, she suddenly noticed that the board on the other side of the window was hanging from something that looked like a wrist-thick snake.
The gaze continued to move in this direction, and next to the thing that looked like a snake, it was not a snake at all, but a cloud of smoke, but with black and red flesh, and you could see the outline of thick muscles that were not like humans, but must be strong.
Although Mei had already felt the fear, there was an inexplicable voice in her heart that seemed to tell her that if she could continue to watch, she must continue to see what it was!
So Mei's gaze continued to move to the right, full of muscles, thick legs that were one and a half meters tall, and below them were three toes thicker than cucumbers supporting her body.
