But as we were talking, the hairy monster that was pooping seemed to have heard the sound.
Soon it put its butt back, without even wiping its dick, and tilted its head to look towards us.
Seeing this, Zhang Chu lowered his voice and said to me, "Oh no, that hairy monster is coming. You guys should bow down and be quiet."
In a hurry, Fatty Li, Zhao Xilan and I bent down and lay in the grass.
But through the gaps in the grass, I noticed that the hairy monster was crawling towards us slowly, with no intention of stopping.
It poked its head out and mumbled something indistinctly.
Although its voice was very low, I could still hear it clearly. It was speaking Chinese, definitely Chinese. I could hear it clearly.
Seeing the hairy monster crawling towards us, Zhang Chu winked at me.
I understood what my master Zhang Chu meant, and then I took out two talismans from my cloth bag, one for immobilization and one for silencing.
Just about half a minute after I took out the talisman, the hairy monster walked up to us.
"Who are you?"
Its eyes widened and it mumbled something. I listened carefully to the words.
"Oh no, it discovered us!" my master Zhang Chu exclaimed, "Tianyi, hurry up and do it."
On my side, I hurriedly activated the talisman and threw the two talismans out.
Just when the hairy monster was about to shout, the silencing talisman and the immobilizing talisman were suddenly attached to its body. Its throat trembled, but it could not make a sound. At the same time, its body was also immobilized.
Seeing that the hairy monster was dealt with, my master Zhang Chu walked forward with his body bent, stretched out his hand and pulled the hairy monster to our side.
The hairy monster didn't struggle because its body was immobilized, but a ferocious expression appeared on its face.
The teeth in its mouth were exposed, and the sharp teeth were like tiger fangs, which looked quite creepy.
Previously, we observed the hairy monsters from a distance, but now that we have subdued a hairy monster, we can observe it from close range.
After seeing the hairy monster clearly, the four of us showed surprised expressions on our faces.
Because apart from the long hair on its body and its hands and feet on the ground, the hairy monster looks almost the same as a human. In my opinion, if the hair on the hairy monster is removed, it will look exactly like a human.
"How... could this happen?"
An incredible expression appeared on Zhang Chu's face, and his brows were slightly wrinkled.
Fatty Li was also shocked and said, "Brother Yang, look at the appearance of these hairy monsters. They are no different from humans. But why do they live in such a strange place? Moreover, they are standing on their hands and feet, just like wild animals."
Before I could say anything, my master Zhang Chu said in a deep voice: "I know what's going on!"
I looked at Zhang Chu and asked, "Master, what's going on?"
My master Zhang Chu said two words in a hurry: reversion to our ancestors!
"Atavism? What is atavism?" Zhao Xilan asked in confusion.
Zhang Chu looked at the hairy monster with bared teeth and said to us, "You all know that we humans evolved from apes. Apes are our ancestors. But you can see some hairy humans on TV. They look a bit like apes."
“This is a kind of atavism.”
"This
It is said to be related to genes. We humans nowadays do not have many genes of ancient apes, but genes are latent. Sometimes there are some strange-looking children among newborns. Those children carry the characteristics of apes. "
"Of course, children born from genetic mutations are not included."
I know about genes. I studied them in middle school.
But I didn’t expect that my master Zhang Chu also knew about genes and gene mutations.
I nodded, but still asked in confusion: "Master, it stands to reason that even if it is because of genes, we humans have some regression. But, Master, these monsters in the Soul Burial Valley all have hair. Could it be that they have regressed to their ancestral state?"
"I think it's impossible. The probability is too low."
After hearing what I said, Zhang Chu also showed a look of confusion.
He said, "I just thought of this, but I have no clue. I think there may be some unknown secrets hidden in this Soul Burial Valley. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many hairy monsters here."
I looked at the hairy monster lying motionless on the ground, and more and more questions popped up in my mind.
But now is not the time for me to worry about these questions. The purpose of our coming here is to find Zhao Xilan’s boyfriend Huang Bin, and Huang Bin is still missing.
Besides, those hairy monsters are man-eaters, even carrion. I was really worried about being discovered by them. After all, there were quite a few of them.
"Okay, Tianyi, don't pay attention to this hairy monster. They are different from us modern civilized people. They are more wild and only know how to hunt and kill."
"In my eyes, their bloodline is very similar to that of humans, but they are more like beasts."
I nodded, and then continued to look outside through the grass.
Fortunately, at this time, those hairy monsters have not appeared here yet.
The natural cave over there is not far from us.
Also, the sound from the cave where the sound came from has weakened a lot, but I can still hear human shouting.
"Then Master, what should we do now? We can't stay here forever."
Zhang Chu looked at us, thought for a moment, and said, "How about this? Otherwise, we can just quietly walk over here. Even though the feces and urine are a bit smelly, it's better than encountering those hairy monsters. And the cave over there is not far from us. As long as we pass through the grass here, we can reach there smoothly."
I looked back at Zhao Xilan and Fatty Li, and they nodded at me.
Zhao Xilan pinched her nose and said to me, "Brother Tianyi, let's do this. Let's keep going. Even if we smell the shit and urine, it won't kill us."
This is the only thing we can do now.
Otherwise, if we rashly go out of the bushes, we will easily be discovered by those hairy monsters that are eating carrion.
"What about this hairy monster?"
Fatty Li looked at the hairy monster with vigilant eyes and asked.
I thought about it, and without hesitation, I walked up to the hairy monster, raised my hand, and hit the hairy monster on the back. Because of the talisman, the hairy monster didn't even hum, his eyelids fluttered, and he fell to the ground.
Glancing at the hairy monster, I said, "That's good. We can move on."
A few people ordered
He nodded, and then we pinched our noses and continued walking through the grass.
The natural cave in front was not far away. It only took us seven or eight minutes to get close to it.
The place where the hairy monster defecates and pees is already some distance away from us.
As for the dirt on the soles of our feet, we wiped it off.
However, just as we reached the natural cave, my master Zhang Chu in front of us discovered something else.
He signaled us to move more quietly and not make any noise.
Then he said, "Look, there is a hairy monster guarding the cave where the sound came from."
The three of us moved closer and indeed saw two hairy monsters.
The two hairy monsters were lying on the ground like wild dogs. They looked like they were asleep, but I knew they were not asleep at all.
Once we get close to them, we will definitely be discovered by them immediately.
The sounds inside the natural cave sounded intermittent at this time.
But the "click, click" sound was still heard, a bit like the sound heard in TV dramas when the prison boss whipped the prisoners.
"By the way, Tianyi, do you have an invisibility charm? If you have one, it will be much easier for us to sneak past them!"
Zhang Chu just thought of this and reminded me of it.
When I heard this, I slapped my forehead and said to Zhang Chu excitedly, "Master, I have several invisibility talismans, all of which I drew before."
Zhang Chu was very surprised when he heard what I said, "What? Tianyi, you said you drew the invisibility talisman yourself? How is that possible? You know, the invisibility talisman is a high-level talisman."
I nodded, took out the invisibility talisman from the bag, and whispered to Zhang Chu, "Master, please watch carefully. I will take out the invisibility talisman for you to have a look."
Then I took out a few invisibility talismans, and I counted them. There were four in total. Except for my master Zhang Chu, each of the three of us could get one, and there was one left. As mentioned earlier, my master Zhang Chu no longer had Yin De, so he could not control the Yin De Qi.
When they saw me take out the invisibility talisman, Zhao Xilan and Fatty Li, who were both ghost-catching Taoist priests, looked at me strangely and stared at me excitedly.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" I asked puzzled.
Fatty Li lowered his voice and said, "Brother Yang, it seems that I still underestimated you. I didn't expect that in addition to owning the red lacquer coffin and the monster, your own Taoism has also improved so much. You can even draw high-level talismans and invisibility talismans. It's really amazing."
"You know, it takes decades for even a highly skilled ghost-hunting Taoist priest to draw the invisibility talisman. But look at you, you've only been in the business for a few months and you've already been able to draw this kind of talisman. You're really amazing."
"Also, Brother Yang, you may not know that the talisman of invisibility has been basically lost among our ghost-catching Taoist priests. Even if some Taoist priests accidentally obtained the invisibility talisman, it is just a finished product. As far as I know, no ghost-catching Taoist priest in Jiangbin City can draw the invisibility talisman."
The praise from Fatty Li really made me blush.
I smiled and waved my hands, saying, "Don't flatter me. Now is not the time to say these things. Let's hurry up and go into the cave to see who the person who shouted is. Maybe that person knows the whereabouts of Huang Bin."
Then I gave the talismans in my hand to Fatty Li and Zhao Xilan.
