Volume 1 The First Awakening of Nangong City Chapter 11 The Phantom Eats Heart
The quiet town is indescribably weird, and the moon is so dark that you can't see the night sky clearly, and the whole town is shrouded in fog. Xiu Yu shook his somewhat cold body, and his eyelids couldn't help jumping upward.
It was late at night, less than three hours before dawn.
The two squatted for most of the night, observing the movements of the night.
Zi Mo's internal injuries had not healed, her spirit was still lost, and she was inevitably a little tired in the middle of the night, she looked at the upcoming dawn, and sighed softly: "It's almost dawn, maybe it won't come......"
Xiu Yu did not answer, but observed the surroundings more intently, a pair of eyes did not blink, not letting go of every movement in the night. I don't know if it's intuition, his eyelids keep jumping, and he always has a bad premonition in his heart.
In fact, he knows that at every critical moment, he must not relax, especially this kind of major event that is related to human life. Besides, it was really strange in the town tonight, and the fog almost covered most of the night sky.
He didn't dare to slack off in the slightest.
Gazing intently, the sky was already showing signs of gray. As time passed, Xiuyu's breathing became heavier and heavier, and after staying up all night, both of them had bloodshot eyes.
The fog in the town gradually dissipated, and the sound of roosters crowing could be heard in the town.
The two breathed a sigh of relief, and were about to relax their bodies, and when they collapsed to the ground, Xiuyu's eyelids suddenly jumped wildly, and a feeling of palpitations inexplicably grew in his spine, as if he had been electrocuted, which made him can't help but hit a wit.
Before he could recover from it, a terrible scream broke the silence of the approaching dawn.
The fog that was about to dissipate seemed to flow rapidly in the midst of the screams.
Xiu Yu was shocked, and his pores exploded immediately when he was slightly sleepy, and he didn't hesitate at all, rushing towards the screaming place at the fastest speed in his life.
On the side, Zi Mo also woke up in a sleepy mood, and quickly followed his footsteps.
The two of them arrived at the screaming almost instantly.
At this time, a bloody picture came into view, a woman was paralyzed on the ground, her chest was pierced, her heart was torn out, mixed with a lot of internal organs, and blood splattered on the wall, dripping and dazzling!
The woman's dead face was filled with desperate horror, and her eyes were wide open, cruel and cold.
Xiu Yu's face was ugly, his eyes kept flickering, and his whole person's fingers were pulling his body, and he was trembling faintly!
A wave of anger rose.
It was getting dark, and someone was already rushing over to hear the sound.
"Someone is dying again...!"
In the early morning, another piece of frightening news spread quickly.
Xiu Yu immediately made a decision, and said quickly: "Let's go, let's go to the bamboo house now and see if the old man is okay." β
Zi Mo also looked solemn, the two of them nodded separately, and hurriedly ran to the bamboo forest.
This thing is so cunning that it knows how to hunt when people are at their laxest!
The sky turned white, and the old man was already digging bamboo shoots in the forest with a basket on his back.
"Old man ......"
Ten meters away, Xiu Yu shouted loudly.
The old man came down from the mud slope, put down his work, and said in reply, "Young man, what's the matter? Is there another accident in the town?"
Striding over to the old man, Xiu Yu let go of his anxiety and smiled, "No, old man, we just came over to see if you were okay." β
The old man's old face showed a wrinkled smile: "People are old, I've seen too many strange things, and it's almost better in two days......"
Well... Xiu Yu nodded in response, looked at the bamboo shoots in the old man's hands, he picked up the tools on the ground, and said, "I'll help you dig the bamboo shoots." β
Xiu Yu pulled away a slender bamboo shoot from the dirt, and asked casually, "Grandpa, did you find anything unusual at night?"
The old man put the bamboo shoots handed over by Xiuyu into the basket and shook his head to indicate that there was no.
Xiu Yu asked again: "Is there any weird fog at night?"
The old man said no.
Xiu Yu glanced at Zi Mo, then looked at the old man, and finally said: "That's the case, old man, you live alone in the bamboo forest, I'm afraid it will inevitably be unsafe, or we will pick you up and stay in the town, and we will arrange a place to live." β
"Zimo and I plan to stay in the town for a while, and we can live together. β
The old man is alone in the bamboo forest, which is too dangerous.
When the old man heard this, he looked at the two of them in surprise.
"Kid, is there something going on in town?"
Xiu Yu was silent.
The old man said: "Actually, you don't have to worry about my old man's house, I have heard about the things in the town, that monster likes to devour people's hearts, I am this age, I have already stepped into the coffin with half a foot, my blood is exhausted, and I am thin and skinny, I am afraid that the monster will not be able to dislike it, how can I be interested in an old man." β
Xiu Yu and the two looked at each other and did not speak for a short time.
They have understood what the old man thinks.
After a few breaths, Xiu Yu still spoke: "Grandpa, then you must take care of yourself, don't go out at night, it's best to ...... these days and nights."
Xiu Yu was a little speechless, because he knew that if that thing really found the old man, I was afraid that it would be too late to do anything.
That thing was so cunning that it knew how to drive away disasters and avoid disasters, and quietly killed a human life.
He was afraid that the old man would be alone and would be approached by that thing.
Seeing that Xiu Yu was silent, Zi Mo took out a yellow talisman from his arms and handed it to the old man.
"Grandpa, this is a talisman to suppress evil spirits, if something is going to happen, you can stick the talisman on your body, so that you will be safe. β
The two of them told each other again and again, their expressions full of worry.
"Okay, good..."The old man said three good words in a row, and took the yellow charm with a smile.
The two said goodbye to the old man.
On the way, Xiu Yu looked at Zi Mo in surprise and said, "You still have this kind of thing, but why haven't I seen it?"
Zi Mo's rare expression was depressed: "That's just a hand-drawn painting by me when I came to the road, in fact, it doesn't work at all - ordinary people among the people believe in ghosts and gods, and the old man feels that if he has a ghost and god talisman by his side, even if he encounters danger, he won't feel too afraid......"
Xiu Yu was silent for a while, he lowered his head, and thought of something in his heart that he didn't want to happen.
Could it be that the elderly are really in danger?
After a few moments, he shook his head, his eyes showing determination.
He couldn't bear to watch this amiable old man die tragically in this bamboo forest.
In order to avoid this tragic situation, he sped up his speed and said without looking back: "Go back to the town, continue to squat, I must see what it looks like!"
Soon, night fell again, and a fog covered the town.
This time, the two of them switched positions, observing the entire village from a hidden rooftop.
There was no starlight at night, and it was almost pitch black with no fingers.
Gusts of wind carried the mist and whistled across the town.
It was another silent night, dull and unbearable.
At dawn, a ray of sunlight cleared the clouds and mist of the town, and the night passed, and nothing happened in the town.
Xiuyu and the two took advantage of the daytime to fall into recuperation.
......
The day passed quickly, and the fog rose from the ground.
A touch of eerie and icy aura hit from the strange wind, and Xiu Yu couldn't help but shiver.
Outside the town, in the mountains and forests, a dark shadow loomed.
Like a phoenix, like a fog, just a few breaths, it appeared on the edge of the town.
A cold aura suddenly spread through the mist.
Xiu Yu felt that his body was unusually cold, his eyes widened suddenly, and he said coldly: "It's-it's finally here!"
Zi Mo cautiously guarded the surroundings.
A strange wind blew faintly, pointing directly at a compound.
"There!"
Zi Mo's spiritual sense was fast, and his spiritual sense was amazing, pointing directly at the place where the phoenix attacked.
"Let's go!"
Xiu Yu immediately rushed over.
In a compound in the town, this is a large family of more than a dozen people, and they have all slept peacefully at this time.
They fell asleep, not knowing the danger of approaching quickly, but they felt that the futon was a little cold, and they unconsciously pulled the quilt.
"Ahh Ahh!!h
A terrible scream came from a house, instantly waking up the other sleeping people in the compound.
A spurt of blood spurted on the pillar, and a young lady died on the spot!
A dark shadow of the forest passed through the wall, turning into a night death killer, mercilessly harvesting life.
Not far away, Xiu Yu's pupils dilated, and he saw the black shadow, as fast as lightning, and broke into a house again, and then a sharp cry sounded again.
"Beasts, don't stop yet!"
Xiu Yu shouted violently and chased after him.
Beside him, Zi Mo's pupils constricted, and when he saw the ghost-like black shadow, he muttered in disbelief: "This... Could it be the legendary Phantom?"
She hurriedly grabbed Xiuyu, who was running.
"What are you doing!?" Xiu Yu glared, almost roaring, because he saw again, a bloody arrow spilled on the window.
"Tsk... Boom..."
An eerie and strange sound came from the house, and one could hear it as if his scalp was tingling, and his bones were as uncomfortable as pins and needles.
Zi Mo tightened Xiuyu, and after hearing this terrible voice, he immediately shouted loudly: "Do you want to find death!?"
"βThis is the Phantom, the ghost shadow, the legendary murderous creature!"
"Phantom...?"
Xiu Yu Suomei stopped his movements and watched as the dark shadow splattered blood from one house to another.
Zi Mo's voice was full of anxiety, revealing deep jealousy and fear for this dark shadow.
The two hid in the corner behind the gate from the original gate of the compound, looking at the cruel and bloody picture of the courtyard unbearably.
The screams of the houses in the compound caused a panic in the town, and the sleeping people of the town opened their eyes and hid in the bedding in a trembling way, shivering under the bed, afraid that something would come to the door.
A few breaths passed, and the phantom disappeared into the mist like black thunderbolt.
