The longer I stay in the Yangshi, the heavier my heart becomes.
Yuchen also saw my entanglement and sadness, and would pester me fiercely every night.
After it was over, he would hug me and whisper in my ear, "As you said, I won't regret it."
"
You used Xing'er to make me jealous and let me take the initiative to say that I will never regret it. It turned out that she was waiting for me here.
The fact that he could have such an arrangement means that he knew early on that the world in Yang would be uneventful.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, it's not surprising that Yuchen knows that these natural and man-made disasters are related to the gods in the heaven. Yuchen has restored Qianchen's memory, so the damage caused to Yangshi by the last war of gods, Yuchen has fully recovered.
The inner demon captured me into a dream, and the hell on earth that I saw was all Yuchen's memory.
Once a fight breaks out, what will happen to the three realms? Yuchen is inferior to me.
I often want to ask Yuchen, can we really prevent the war between Bai Ziqi and Li Nangeng? Without relying on Jiu Feng Emperor Ji or Qian Chen's power, can Yuchen and Lin Xi really do it?
If we can't stop it, when the day of the war comes, the three realms will be in chaos, and the world will become purgatory, by then, will we still be able to be together with peace of mind and determination? It's true that we love each other, but can we ignore the creatures in the three realms just because we love each other?
When these words came to my lips, I swallowed them all.
It's as if I haven't been shaken in my heart if I don't say these words.
When I was in a daze, Yuchen would hold me in his arms without saying a word.
Liu Changsheng took us to various places, including the south, the north, mountain villages, cities, etc. The places were different, but the only thing that was the same was that people died abnormally in every place.
I even suspected that Liu Changsheng deliberately led us to these places of human tragedy.
This day, we arrived at a mountain village.
When I entered the village, I happened to encounter someone having a funeral in the village. The funeral procession carrying the coffin was walking towards the back mountain. There were several old people in the village sitting on the street, watching the funeral crowd and sighing.
"I don't know what's going on in this world. He's young and has no disease or calamity. How can this person just disappear?
"
"It's not that there is no illness or disaster," another old man said, "I heard from Huzi's neighbor that the night before Huzi died, he screamed strangely all night long.
It wasn't until the rooster crowed that the tiger calmed down.
Moreover, after Huzi's death, Huzi's family did not bury the body and hold a funeral, so they just arranged the burial directly.
His second uncle, don’t you know why?”
The old man who was called his second uncle also became more energetic. He narrowed his eyes and asked the old man who was speaking, "Why?"
"Because Hu Zi died in a strange way and the body was no longer human-like. His family was afraid that something might happen to the body due to long nights and dreams, so they were anxious to bury it.
"
The old man said, "I heard this from Huzi's wife's mother-in-law's family. After Huzi died, his daughter-in-law called her mother-in-law's family for help. Only then did her mother-in-law see Huzi's body. They were all shocked when they first saw it.
I was shocked. The 1.8 meter tall young man was tortured until he was fucked by a human being. It was as if the flesh and blood in his body had been eaten clean by something, leaving only skin and bones.
Huzi's wife was so frightened that she had no idea.
It was her mother's family who gave her the idea to bury the body as soon as possible. After all, people who died uncleanly were most afraid of cheating.
"
The two old men didn't speak very loudly, but we all have a good level of cultivation, so when we passed by them, we could hear their conversation word for word.
The old man said that the tiger's death was very much like being sucked dry of yang energy by something.
We chased Yangshi from the Demon Realm all the way to catch this guy who sucks people's energy, and finally found his footprints here.
So I thought about whether I should inquire more carefully with the old man.
When I was wondering if I needed it, Hu Jinyue had already walked over and squatted in front of the old man who was speaking.
Suddenly a young man approached and the old people were startled.
Hu Jinyue squinted her eyes and smiled. He was good-looking. His smile was enchanting and charming. His eyes and brows were filled with affection. The little old lady sitting next to him looked straight at him.
Hu Jinyue smiled and said to the old man, "Uncle, we are a group of demon hunters, and we came here chasing a demon that sucks people's yang energy.
We all heard what the uncle said just now.
Hu Zi's strange death was that he had been drained of his yang energy.
So we suspect that the monster is in your village now.
"
Hearing what Hu Jinyue said, several old people were stunned. Then an old man stood up, raised his cane and pointed it at Hu Jinyue, about to beat him, "Where are you from? You are a liar. You have defrauded all your uncles."
!We tell you, we have no money!”
Hu Jinyue quickly stood up and ran away.
I hurriedly walked over and said to the old man holding a cane, "Uncle, we don't want money.
We catch monsters for free and eliminate harm for the people. This is our responsibility as monster hunters.
We just want to ask the gentlemen if there is anyone around here who died in a similar way to Hu Zi?"
Hearing that we didn't want money, the uncle put down his crutch, looked at me with squinted eyes for a while, and said defensively, "You really don't want money? You won't settle the score with us in the end, right?"
I raised my hands and swore to God that I wouldn't want any money.
The uncle finally believed me.
He thought for a while and said, "I don't know if anyone died in other villages.
But in our village, after Huzi died, the waiter at the head of the village suddenly went crazy, muttering something about the Xian family not being Xianer, and that all of them would die a good death, etc. These were all crazy words anyway.
By the way, Xiao Er's mother was carrying Xian'er on her back. After she went crazy, the great immortal didn't come out to help her.
We all guessed that the great fairy she was carrying might have died. She couldn't bear the blow and went crazy.
"
After thanking the uncle, we found the waiter's house according to the address given by the uncle.
It's just an ordinary farmhouse, with a big rusty iron door, a small courtyard, and three bungalows.
When we opened the door, we saw a rural woman wearing short sleeves and blue pants sitting in the yard with her back to us.
In front of the woman was a large iron basin for washing clothes. The large iron basin was filled with water, but the basin was filled with blood.
The woman held something in the iron basin with one hand and a kitchen knife with the other hand, cutting it down again and again.
The kitchen knife struck the bone, making a clicking sound.
While slashing the woman, she kept muttering, "It's good to die, it's good to die, it's all over once and for all."
Don’t worry about being eaten, don’t worry about disaster coming, mother will bring you here, mother will send you away…”
The more I listened, the more I felt something was wrong. I took a few steps forward, approached the woman, and looked into the large iron basin in front of her.
Just one glance made my stomach churn, and I couldn't help but bend over and vomit.
The woman's movements gave people the impression that she was killing a chicken or a pig, but the reality was that the big iron basin in front of her contained neither pork nor chicken, but half a human corpse!
It was a boy with only the upper body, and he looked about fifteen or sixteen years old. His body was soaked in a large iron basin, his head was tilted back, hanging outside the iron basin, and his neck was just resting on the iron basin.
The woman was slashing the boy's neck with a kitchen knife!
