The bonfire was suppressed and the light and darkness were uncertain, and the cold wind poured into the wooden house unbridled.
The sudden scene stunned Anna who was about to take action. She didn't know what to do and her head was in a mess. Lu Li didn't aim? Did he accidentally misfire? Did Lu Li have a hallucination?
Until she saw the woman's headless body swaying a few times, she slowly turned around, raised her hands, and swayed closer to Lu Li.
The upper part of her lips completely disappeared, revealing a broken mouth like granulation, with a trembling tongue.
An inarticulate sound mixed with the air flow came out from the base of the remaining tongue: "You... are not... a guest..."
She, or it should be said, took a few steps forward and kicked a stone on the edge of the fire. The woman who had lost most of her brain and eyesight did not react at all. She knocked over the boiling broth on the bonfire and poured it straight into the bonfire, splashing
Large clumps of sparks flying in all directions.
The clothes on the woman's body burned first, then her body. The red fire appeared from under her skin. Her torso was like red-hot charcoal, shining red. The reddest bang came out, and a fire erupted from her body.
A dark red flame.
Normal humans would never be as flammable as it, or in other words, normal humans would die the moment their heads explode.
Lu Li took a few steps back and watched the woman who was still able to move climb up from the fire. Dark red flames spurted out from the cracks in her body. She left the fire, which was nearly crushed to pieces. There was no wailing or pain.
He could only move his twisted body numbly and ran towards the rainy door.
It ignored the "husband" and the six-legged savage who were struggling and entangled at the door, ran past them, and rushed into the splashing rain outside.
Under the heavy downpour, the woman's body was like lava meeting water. The burned body gave off a dark red luster, steam emitted from it, blackened and cooled at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning into an obsidian-like blackness.
The cold rain took away its life at the same time. Its running movements became slow and stiff, and its knees fell down and fell into a pool of water. It held its hands on its chest and gradually raised them into a praying posture.
To the Swamp Mother.
The body was quickly cooled, and the headless body gradually became still.
laugh--
The last wisp of green smoke floated out, was smashed by the rain, and dissipated in the rainy night.
"hiss!!!"
The little boy suddenly let out an inhuman roar and rushed towards Lu Li.
Anna woke up from a dream, and placed her mind in front of Lu Li to protect him from the little boy.
Lu Li lowered his protective arm in front of him, pulled out a burning stick from the bonfire, and thrust it into the little boy's mouth. He then rushed out with the force of his feet, carrying the strong wind and pushing the little boy backwards.
Bang!!
The little boy's back hit the wooden wall hard, and the red-hot wooden stick in his mouth penetrated his body, stabbed out from the back of his head, and penetrated into the gap in the wooden wall.
Lu Li quickly retreated to avoid the little boy's crazy kicks and grabs.
The little boy was like his "mother", easy to burn. In just a few seconds, the head was like a steamer, emitting hot steam and thick smoke, and the firelight lit up from the grown mouth and eye sockets.
The little boy who was nailed to the wall struggled violently, but the flames in his body quickly spread to his entire body, and the parched skin cracked and a wisp of flames spurted out.
Its struggle became weak until its hands dropped down and remained motionless as they were nailed to the wall.
The flames on the body's surface gradually extinguished, leaving only the occasional dark red surge in the body.
After changing the bullets, Lu Li put away the psychic gun at this moment, not only because the psychic gun was of little use to a family of three, but also because the battle was coming to an end.
The male master's arm was torn off by the six-legged savages. There was no blood in the cut, but a strange mixture like sawdust. Five six-legged savages swarmed up, then the other arm, legs, and even the body.
The attack method of the six-legged savage seems to be to tear the opponent apart, and it seems that he is venting his emotions in this way.
The male protagonist did not wail and scream, and there was no blood splattering, which made the scene less bloody, like a group of monkeys tearing apart a life-size puppet.
The last piece was torn apart by them, and the six-legged savage heads that occupied half of the wooden house all turned to Lu Li. They remained still for a few seconds, and then gathered around them again. There was an intensive sound of grinding teeth.
The sound of teeth grinding becomes gentler and no longer aggressive.
"So they're helping us?"
Anna asked softly.
"Maybe." Lu Li nodded. "I think that's why people call them six-legged savages instead of monsters."
After a few dozen seconds, the group of six-legged savages seemed to have finished exchanging something, turned around and left the wooden house, heading around to a woodshed at the back of the wooden house.
Lu Li put on his poncho and oil lamp and followed him out, arriving at the woodshed door that was knocked open by the six-legged savage.
They got into the darkness behind the door, and the sound of heavy objects being dragged was heard. Lu Li put his arms deep behind the door and raised the oil lamp slightly.
Under the dim oil lamp, a group of dirty corpses stained with mud were piled in the corner of the woodshed. At a glance, it looked like more than a dozen bodies were stacked on top of each other.
These are the corpses of six-legged savages. They all lost four arms and only had one leg left. They were entangled together and at first glance, they thought they were human beings.
The six-legged savages gathered around the corpses of the same kind and touched them one by one with their arms, but there were no survivors among them.
"vomit--"
Anna, who was floating behind him, retched.
"If you can't stand it, don't read it." Lu Li said without looking back.
"No, I just remembered the broth boiling in the pot... It's these things..."
"I've already smelled it, so what's the point of being disgusted afterwards."
Anna felt that what Lu Li said made sense - but she couldn't do it.
When no surviving members of the same species were found, the six-legged savages changed their purpose. They approached the pile of corpses one by one and dragged the corpses of the same species out of the woodshed, just like carrying ants, carrying the corpses one by one into the depths of the jungle.
Lu Li and Anna watched as the bodies in the woodshed became fewer and fewer, until the last body was dragged into the jungle.
A six-legged savage crawled over from the jungle, passed Lu Li and got into the woodshed. He walked around inside and found no corpse of the same kind.
Apparently the last six-legged savage to leave didn't tell it that the body had been moved.
The mud on its body was completely washed away, revealing its pale, rough skin covered with scars. The triangular rag around its waist looked familiar to Anna and Lu Li.
This is the six-legged savage who first followed Lu Li, was spared, and was rescued.
"Gala——"
The sound of grinding teeth was lost in the sound of rain. The six-legged savage used his six jointed limbs at the same time and crawled away without looking back.
From beginning to end, they never interacted with Lu Li.
"What... I thought they came to help us, but it turned out they were just looking for companions." Anna was somewhat discouraged.
"Or maybe both."
Lu Li said, looking towards the jungle.
Lightning flashed across, and in the gradually darkening shadows, the figure of the six-legged savage disappeared deep into the jungle.
