Tan Yue's eyes flickered, she seemed to see Qin Heng?

That's right, she looked up and saw Qin Heng hiding behind the roots of the tree in the other direction. He was dressed in black and disappeared into the night.

Qin Heng also saw her, and he was obviously nervous for a moment when he saw Tan Yue, and then slowly relaxed. The two glanced at each other in tacit understanding and continued to observe the village chief's behavior.

The village chief had words in his mouth, but Tan Yue couldn't hear them clearly.

The girl next to Tan Yue watched coldly as the village chief prayed to the statue, her eyes did not have a trace of warmth, as if she was looking at a dead thing.

Tan Yue was thinking about the village chief's intentions in doing this. It was the captain of the Awakened team that was brought last night, and today the captain happened to have a fever, which can't be a coincidence.

Today, the village chief brought the girl from the Awoken Squad.

If she hadn't anticipated the mistake, this Awakened girl wouldn't have appeared tomorrow either.

Sure enough, after the village chief finished praying, he lifted the collar of the awakened girl and covered her withered right hand over her face - Tan Yue noticed that the village chief's right hand had completely turned into a dry branch, as if the night would make their bodies visible.

The girl screamed.

An unknown liquid surged under the skin of the Awakened Girl's face, making her facial features appear to be flowing like liquid, as if they were about to break away from her head—and then something shocking happened, and the little girl's facial features flowed down the right arm that the village covered with it to the village chief's body, and then regrew on the skin of the village chief's back!

Her horrified expression froze on the village chief's bark-like torso, just like the leader of the Awakened squad last night.

Tan Yue bit her lower lip and controlled her atmosphere without taking a breath. She looked to the other side, Qin Heng's figure was hidden in the dark, and she couldn't see his expression clearly, but she could feel that his mood was not good.

After the village chief left, Tan Yue dragged the spirit body out from behind the bunker.

Qin Heng saw her transparent body, and his face turned fierce: "You have become like this?" ”

I saw that Qin Heng's body was also transparent, and the moonlight could penetrate through his body.

Tan Yue didn't know what was going on, her body was still lying in the original house. She looked at the little girl and said, "Did you do it?" ”

The little girl did not speak.

Tan Yue bought a white card from the system mall and said to her, "If you don't speak, I'll put you in the card." ”

The little girl gave her an angry look and asked dissatisfiedly, "That's how you treated the people who helped you?" ”

"Sorry sorry, just kidding." Tan Yue put away the blank card.

The little girl pouted: "I thought you couldn't see me, who knows how you can see me." ”

With a gloomy face, she said to the two, "Don't believe this village, it will blur your memory, you will forget everything." Whatever you see at night, you can't bring this memory back to the day. You'll all forget. ”

She said to Tan Yue, her watery eyes looked even more resentful in her transparent body: "I can only implant this memory in your memory in the form of a dream, and it took me a lot of effort." ”

Tan Yue was stunned for a moment, and glanced at Qin Heng.

"You were there last night?" She asked the little girl.

The little girl said, "Of course." I've detached both of you souls. Only in this way can your memories be preserved. ”

Tan Yue asked Qin Heng again: "You also came out last night?" ”

Qin Heng didn't deny it this time, and nodded lightly.

"Thank you, you...... Where did it come from? ”

The little girl looked up in the direction of the tower and reached out and pointed lightly.

"You're from the Tower?"

She nodded.

Tan Yue remembered that the tower was where the two bullets came out.

She asked eagerly, "What kind of place is the Tower?" ”

But the little girl said, "I should go, see you next time." ”

"Don't-"

Before the words fell, the figure of the little girl disappeared.

……

Tan Yue forgot when she returned to her body.

Probably there really exists in this village that can confuse memories and cognition, and do things such as ghosts hitting walls and making people forget memories.

If there is such an existence, it must have a lot to do with the village chief.

She got up early to wash up, and looked to the side to see that Qin Heng was doing strength training on the side.

"You didn't sleep?" She walked over and asked.

Qin Heng nodded, stood up and patted the dirt off his hands.

Strangely, this time he spoke first: "I figured it out." ”

Tan Yue smiled: "I also figured it out." ”

Zhou Chenghua walked out from behind and said, "What are you two fighting dumb fans?" ”

Tan Yue simply told him what happened last night and the night before.

"Remember what I told you, these plants are competing for human genes."

Zhou Chenghua nodded, then reacted and exclaimed in a low voice: "You mean the village chief-"

"Shh

Tan Yue continued to analyze: "As we can see with our own eyes, the village chief is not a human, he is a vegetative person, or a humanoid plant, and if he cares about him, then he needs to compete for human genes. ”

Qin Heng only nodded, giving Tan Yue the opportunity to play.

Zhou Chenghua suddenly realized: "So there are no other humanoid plants in this village, and there are no mutated plants with human faces. ”

"Yes, because it was all absorbed by the village chief, or rather, devoured."

There was silence.

"Nature is a natural selection, survival of the fittest, big fish eat small fish, small fish eat shrimp. With the density of the faces on the village chief's back, he probably ate a lot of plants containing human genes, and he also ate a lot of ...... Person. ”

Zhou Chenghua said: "That little girl, why did she help you?" Is she still here tonight? ”

Tan Yue shrugged: "Who knows." ”

She continued, "I suspect that we are also being used as food by the village chief, just like the squad of the Awoken, and now we can't leave this village, so we need to be careful. ”

By now, most of the people had woken up and lined up in front of the water tank in a daze with their toothbrushes.

Zhou Chenghua glanced at them, turned around and whispered, "Observe again." ”

[Ding Dong, congratulations to the host temporary mission: Exploring the secrets of the village has been completed by 30%, come on!] 】

Tan Yue was overjoyed, it seemed that her guess was correct.

Another day passed, and on the third night, without the absolute memory card, she couldn't see the little girl, nor could she see Qin Heng, only in the chaos and fog, her soul was dragged out of her body, like a dream.

On this day, the village chief did not drag people over, but a mutated plant covered with human faces, and the human faces were quite dense on this plant, and it could be seen that this plant contained many human genes.

He placed the plant in the place of the tribute, worshipped reverently in front of the statue of the willow god, and then muttered something in his mouth.

This time Tan Yue heard clearly, what he said was "Liu God forgives sins"!

The old man was stealing a tribute to the willow god.

The awakened people two days ago, as well as this mutant plant, were originally given to Liu Shen, but now they have all been stolen by the village chief. If the willow god can't get tribute, the ghost will never disappear when he hits the wall, and they will be trapped here and can't get out until they become the rations of the old man.
