After the village elder's wife fell asleep, Malan manipulated her again, and the group quickly went downstairs.
During the day, when the wolf was dead, the village was always lively, but after dark, everything became quiet, and the whole village seemed to fall into deathly silence.
Walking out of the residence and heading towards the coyote, the coyote's house was still exactly the same as yesterday, except that all the windows were closed tightly.
The door of the house was also closed tightly. According to the custom I heard during the day, if someone dies in the village, the body will be taken to the temple to be worshiped for three days before being buried.
There was no one here at the moment. Malan got a knife from somewhere, inserted it into the crack of the door and pried it open, and the door opened.
After entering, Ma Lan took out a flashlight, which was obviously something in her bag.
The light of the flashlight was bright enough, which allowed the three people to see more clearly than yesterday.
Everything in the living room had been cleaned up, even the tables and chairs were gone, and it was a bit empty.
Heading directly to the kitchen, the water tank from yesterday was still there, but the person was gone, and there was an extra wooden lid on the water tank.
Ma Lan walked over, opened the lid and took a look inside. He was so frightened that he took a big step back, and suddenly bumped into the arms of Lin Haoming behind him.
"Are you okay?" Lin Haoming asked softly.
Malan immediately shook his head and said, "Of course it's okay." Then he looked into the water again.
"Elder, what did you see?" Hu Liang asked curiously.
"A face." Malan said.
"Whose face?" Lin Haoming asked.
"I don't know her, she just looks like a woman." Malan said, staring at the water tank.
Hearing this, Lin Haoming and Hu Liang looked at each other, obviously thinking of the scarecrow.
"Go up and have a look." Ma Lan seemed unable to see what else was in the water tank, so she was about to leave. Just when she was about to put the lid back on the water tank, a hand suddenly stretched out from the water tank, grabbed Ma Lan and
I want to drag her into the water tank.
Malan's reaction was also very fast. He grabbed the edge of the water tank and then squirted a mouthful of blood towards the hand in the water tank.
The bloody water sprayed on the hand stretched out from the water tank, and there was a sudden "touch" and the water tank exploded.
The water tank exploded and water flowed all over the floor, but there was nothing inside but water.
Lin Haoming looked at Malan with a solemn expression. It seemed that the hand that grabbed her just now was not simple, and she didn't know if the blood she spat out was the so-called blood on the tip of her tongue, but Lin Haoming was more willing to believe that even if it was blood, it was because of Malan
It must be caused by practicing cultivation or possessing some special physique.
Except for Ma Lan, Lin Haoming believed that Hu Liang was the same, but he didn't have many means.
"Elder, are you okay?" Hu Liang also asked with concern at this time.
"It's okay, I can't die. It seems like this thing is going to start attacking us, and it's going to attack us directly. It's really desperate. Let's go up and take a look first." Malan signaled.
Following Malan upstairs, he soon discovered that the locked straw man in the sacrificial room where he came before was missing, and the items on the table were also missing, or had been overthrown. Lin Haoming noticed that the bowl on the ground was
of iron, picked it up and put it away.
"Did the thing enshrined here break free? There is indeed something wrong with the scarecrow." Hu Liang said, looking at the place where the scarecrow was originally placed.
Malan looked at the situation and shook his head and said: "There is nothing here, go next door and have a look."
When they arrived at what was supposed to be Wolf Earth's bedroom, the three of them quickly discovered that the place had been searched, of course if it was a human being.
Malan seemed a little unwilling to find anything useful, especially because she was attacked without warning just now, which made her even more annoyed, so she said: "Go directly to the temple to have a look."
"There are people guarding there day and night, and there are still people keeping watch over Lang Tu. Will we go there directly to scare the snake?" Lin Haoming reminded.
"I thought about going to see it last night, but I didn't know much about this place, so I didn't go. Today, I originally agreed that the village chief's two sons were coming back, but they didn't show up. And Lang Tu died, so he didn't go to see it.
It's really hard to feel at ease, and there might be clues on Lang Tu." Ma Lan's attitude was firm.
Seeing her like this, Lin Haoming and Hu Liang naturally couldn't disobey, so they went out and prepared to go to the shrine.
Just as they were sneaking towards the shrine, all three of them were suddenly startled and received the soul ring prompt at the same time.
Lin Haoming read the information directly: after completing the hidden reward task, the village chief found the truth about the scientific exploration team, and the reward will be distributed after the task is completed.
As a group task, some people completed it, and others also benefited from it, which also showed that the other team had discovered the truth about the village chief. Although there was only one topaz reward, it was a good start.
"Should we go back and see what's going on before we act? After all, there's still quite a while until dawn." Lin Haoming suggested.
Malan thought for a moment and seemed to think it would be better to be on the safe side, so he nodded.
The three people then circled back to their residence, but when they were about to enter, they smelled the smell of blood.
The smell of blood shocked the three of them. Ma Lan carefully opened the door and pointed the flashlight inside.
"How did you kill her?"
Inside, Niu Hong was seen holding a kitchen knife in his hand, and the village elder's wife had been hacked to death by her. Blood flowed all over the floor and was covered with Niu Hong's body.
Niu Hong looked at the person who came, dropped the kitchen knife and said innocently: "I don't want this old woman to suddenly wake up, and after she wakes up, she seems to be crazy and wants to kill me."
"You said she would kill you like she was crazy when she woke up?" Malan seemed a little unconvinced.
Niu Hong smiled bitterly and said: "That's the fact."
Hu Liang walked over at this time and inspected it carefully. After a while, he turned back and said: "The old woman is not normal, she seems to be possessed."
Seeing Hu Liang say this, Ma Lan also asked: "When did she wake up?"
"Just when I just received the reward task for completing it." Niu Hong replied.
"The first reward mission is completed. It seems that things are about to change." Malan's face became more and more solemn.
At this time, several people heard footsteps coming from behind. Not long after, Huacang and Zhujiang ran in together.
"Where is Yang Kai?" Seeing that there were only two of them, Malan immediately asked.
Huacang gasped and said with a hint of panic: "Dead, Yang Kai is dead."
"How did you die?" Although he was not from Yingtianmen, it was really surprising that he died like this. After all, anyone who dared to do such a task must have some abilities.
"The little girl who was killed by the village chief's granddaughter was wearing red clothes. When we were about to leave after checking the news, she suddenly appeared behind us. Yang Kai went over to explain, but she killed Yang Kai directly.
, I suspect she was possessed by something, and one of her hands directly penetrated Yang Kai's chest and crushed his heart." Hua Cang said.
"Then she's following you, isn't she?" Niu Hong heard this and cried out in fright.
