Chapter 187: Crime and Punishment

"Thirty years?" Xiao Pai interrupted him and asked, "Didn't you just say that this happened eighteen years ago?"

Hui Hui ignored Xiaopai's reply, as if he was completely immersed in his own memories, as if the topic had already been raised, as if he had been stunned by something, and he had to finish it from beginning to end.

"At first, I didn't care. But after walking for a long time, I realized that something was wrong. Because no matter which direction I go, I can't see a single figure, no, not just a figure, but nothing. ”

"There was no trace of the monster beast passing through the grass, there was no bird chirping in the dense trees, there were no predators disguised as rotten wood in the river, there were no fish walking through the water and grass, and even the various insects that always existed in the mud between the trees disappeared cleanly. ”

His body trembled as he spoke.

"A hunter like me, who grew up crawling in the jungle, is familiar with the wilderness, but has never seen anything like it...... It's like, in the whole world, suddenly there is only one living soul left. ”

"I tried to get my bearings, but the sky was always cloudy and it didn't rain, just the sun didn't shine all day. After six days and six nights of walking, I was already hungry. At that time, I thought that I had mistakenly broken into some strange Jedi in the Flood Wilderness, and I was about to starve to death here. ”

His words jerked, then sharpened.

But just then, I walked around a corner blocked by a wood, and saw a stone pot perched on a fire, and in the pot was boiling water. ”

"I was so happy that I saw a man again in the desperate situation of mortality. I guessed that the host must have been washing the ingredients nearby, so I searched around. ”

Shen Hui's words lingered in the room, coupled with his ghostly voice, which made the scalps of everyone listening to the story tingle, but they couldn't help but continue listening.

"After searching for half a day, I finally gave up, and there was no half a figure around. I returned to the cauldron, the boiling water was still bubbling, and next to the cauldron there was somehow a sharp bone knife. ”

The little thing whined softly, and burrowed into the collar of Xiaopai's animal skin clothes, revealing only half of its head, and its eyes stared at Shen Hui motionlessly. Xiao Pai knew that it was a little frightened by this story, so he patted it gently.

"Can you imagine how I felt at that time, the panicked, helpless mood, starving to death in a lifeless wilderness, but in the darkness there seemed to be a pair of eyes watching your every move. I thought I was going to be scared, but I just felt angry. I felt that my time was numbered, and that I had nothing left to lose, so I yelled at the overcast sky with the knife in my hand, and cursed it with the most vicious words I could have known—————— the vile thing that hid in the shadows. If it dares to emerge from the shadows, whether it's a brute or something, I'll cut its throat with that knife and use its flesh to make a pot of soup. ”

Shen Hui's words were undoubtedly an offense to the demon clan present, but no demon clan interrupted his narration because of this, this bear elder had fallen into a rather crazy state, and no living creature was willing to fight a madman.

"When the thought of broth came to my mind, I heard a thudding sound behind me, and I turned around to see a wood carving floating in the boiling water in the stone pot. There was still no figure around, and it was as if the relief had fallen into the pot out of thin air when I turned my back. ”

"I fished out the wood carving and found that it was my left arm. But the carving is a little loose, and it looks like boiled meat. ”

When some of the people present heard this, they vaguely guessed what was going to happen next, and their backs began to grow a little hairy.

"I was too hungry to scream anymore, but I threw the sculpture into the shadows of the trees in the distance, and spat hard in the direction of the empty object. ”

There was no sound, no response, it was as if I was messing around, and when I threw out the wood carving, it was as if all my hopes had been thrown away, and I was crushed by the strangeness and silence of the days to my last senses, and I ran wildly in a random direction, far away from the stone pot, and then sat down on the ground, letting the tears of despair flow down my face. ”

"I thought it would be despair. ”

Shen Hui said, his voice choked up, like someone who has an emotional breakdown and can't control the tears secreting from their tear ducts. This makes his account sound as if it were the unpleasant hiss of some scavenging birds in the wilderness.

"On the morning of the seventh day, when I opened my eyes in a daze, I saw the same stone pot in front of my eyes, and the water in the pot was boiling. The blade was in my hand, resting on my left arm. ”

"I gave in and I said in my heart, 'If that's what you want to see, then you win'. ”

"I removed the part of my left arm below the elbow, threw it into the pot, cooked it for about 20 minutes, and then ate it all. ”

The audience frowned in disgust, and the younger ones such as Li Li even covered their mouths with their hands to stop their urge to retch.

"Then it's easy, day 9 is the left upper arm, day 11 is the left calf, day 14 is the left thigh, then the right calf, then the right thigh. I try to eat less and not eat as a last resort when I'm hungry. But that doesn't seem to be of much use, the more hungry you get, the more you eat. I was like a disgusting monster that slowly ate my limbs over the next month or so. ”

Speaking of this, Shen Hui's voice calmed down, as if he was narrating someone else's affairs, coldly without a trace of emotion. But with the words that came out of his mouth, it was more penetrating than the tone of fear and trembling just now.

Someone in the crowd finally couldn't help it, and loudly refuted: "Your limbs are obviously fine, old immortal dog, why make up such nonsense to disgust us!"

But more people still looked at the three elders with bears with complicated eyes, wondering what was going on next.

"When all my limbs were eaten, I wondered why I hadn't died, because I had never stopped bleeding, but I didn't seem to have died of excessive blood loss. But when you eat all your limbs in your stomach, one day when you look at yourself, you will suddenly have the thought, 'What am I still alive for?', so on that day, I finally couldn't bear it anymore, so I used that bone knife to cut my own throat. ”

Then I woke up, and found myself still in the wilderness, with all my limbs intact and hungry, with a pot of boiling water and a bone knife in front of me. (To be continued.) )
