"It's this white wolf! It brought disaster to my brother!" Liu Dong immediately took out his anger for losing his brother on the white wolf. "If my brother didn't want to catch you, why would he go up the mountain? I will smash you to pieces!" Liu Dong stepped forward angrily, grabbed the white wolf's tail and was about to smash it to pieces again.
"Palala." Suddenly, a sound like a rabbit running very quickly was heard around.
Everyone's nerves were tense again.
Today, there were fireballs, monsters, and one strange thing after another. The villagers' psychological endurance has long been reached to the limit. Some of them almost peed their pants just now.
The water vapor brought by the rain has not yet dissipated, and the surroundings are foggy and difficult to see clearly.
"Palala." Another series of running sounds made them like frightened birds, their minds tense.
Suddenly, the mist around them seemed to be blown by a gust of wind, and when it slowly dispersed, only the dark and gloomy forest could be seen.
"Hurry, hurry up!" The men from the mountains were so frightened that their backs were already hairy. In this dark forest, carrying a dead body and hearing rumors of monsters on the mountain, how could they not be panicked.
Everyone lifted the stretcher and ran. Liu Dong followed, swinging the white wolf in his hand.
"Pa la la la la la." The quieter it was, the clearer the sound was. It always followed Liu Dong and his group, and the footsteps became faster and clearer.
"Stop!" The one who led the way down the mountain asked everyone to stop, "Could it be the sound of our own footsteps?" He tried to remain calm and looked at everyone.
Everyone's face was pale in the mist.
"Pala." Suddenly, there was another series of sounds, and the mist around them rolled up, and a figure was vaguely seen passing by.
"There is a monster!" Zhuzi's shout scared everyone and they screamed.
"Monster! Monster!"
“Run!”
At this moment, a snow-white figure suddenly broke through the fog, grabbed Liu Dong's hand with its sharp claws, and a pair of equally snow-white eyes looked directly into Liu Dong's eyes.
Liu Dong stood there in a daze, as if his soul had been taken away.
The snow-white sharp claws scratched Liu Dong's hand, immediately tearing his skin and flesh, and blood gushing out!
But Liu Dong was so frightened that he couldn't even make a sound.
"Ah--" Everyone screamed in surprise, but in a flash, the figure of the white-haired monster had already disappeared into the white water mist, leaving only Liu Dong standing there, trembling with fear, and his hands were empty, the white wolf had disappeared without a trace.
"White, White Wolf! The monster is coming for White Wolf, everyone run!" Several sturdy young men were so scared that they screamed like women, and they ran away carrying the stretcher, no longer caring about carrying the corpse quietly.
"Dongzi!" Zhuzi slapped Liu Dong in the face, and finally brought back Liu Dong's soul that was scared away by the monster.
Liu Dong screamed "Ah--" and pushed away the pillar and ran away.
In the drizzling rain, a group of people rushed out of the mist in a panic. When they saw the torches at the foot of the mountain, they ran down crying and shouting as if they had seen their savior.
"Oh my god—monster—"
"Dad, the monster wasn't burned to death—"
"Ah - monster - monster -"
At the foot of the northern slope of Pingshan Mountain, villagers from Pingshan North Village were waiting anxiously. They had lit torches and looked out at the dark forest. They had not seen anyone going up the mountain to search for help, but they had heard screams and cries.
“Ah—ah—”
“Ah, a monster—ah—”
It was already night, and everything was quiet; only the howling on the mountain became especially clear and frightening, filling those who heard it with fear.
Many villagers who were there to join in the fun had already retreated in fear when they heard the word "monster" and moved closer to their village chief. The chief of North Village was younger than the old chief of South Village, a man in his forties.
"Monster, monster? Village chief!" Everyone hid behind their own village chief Liu in nervous panic.
Village chief Liu was also very scared. What could he do? He and Liu Qiang were also relatives with him. They all had the surname Liu. He was also the village chief. He couldn't run away because he had to save face.
So, he could only grit his numb scalp, bite his yellow teeth, stand in front of everyone, and shout towards the mountain: "Dongzi - Dongzi - is that you -" This shout, it turns out, gave him some courage.
Just then, I saw a group of people running down the dark mountain road.
"Village Chief—Village Chief—"
"There is a monster—there is a monster—"
The few who were running in the front rolled down and rolled directly in front of the village chief Liu. They hugged his legs and started crying: "Dead, dead - Village, the village chief is dead -"
“Puh, puh, puh!” Village Chief Liu slapped them one by one, “Who on earth died? Look at how cowardly you are. When I was a kid, going up the mountain at night was like playing.”
"Qiangqiang Qiangzi, it's Qiangzi who is dead—"
"Oh my Qiangzi—" Immediately, Liu Qiang's parents burst into tears, "Qiangzi—Qiangzi—"
Everyone quickly supported the Liu couple.
The few who hugged the village chief's legs continued to cry out breathlessly: "It was harmed by the monster - ah - village chief, Qiangzi was harmed by the monster - intestines, intestines were pulled out - ah -"
Village Chief Liu's legs trembled immediately. The villagers around him also turned pale with fear in the firelight!
There really is a monster on this Ping Mountain!
The few people who carried Liu Qiang's body finally stumbled down the mountain. When they saw the fire, their legs went weak and they sat down on the ground, crying and staring blankly, as if they had escaped death by chance and had managed to escape from the mouth of a monster.
"Dad—Mom—" Dongzi shouted to his parents. The old couple of Liu family rushed towards Qiangzi's body. In the firelight, the cloth covering Liu Qiangzi's body was already stained red with blood.
"Whoosh!" A gust of cold wind blew, lifting one side of the white cloth, and immediately a piece of something fell down. Screams broke out instantly, the adults covered the children's eyes, the women were frightened, and Liu Qiang's mother fainted.
"Ah! Intestines! Intestines!"
"Mother! Mother!"
"Go away, go away, this is too evil!"
"Everyone, go home quickly, don't let evil spirits get to you too!"
"Carry Liu Qiang's body back!"
For a time, Pingshan North Village fell into chaos.
Under the dark clouds, boatmen who were going to Qinzhou Prefecture to sell goods were rowing across the Tianliu River at the northern foot of Pingshan Mountain. They saw the villagers of Pingshan North Village on the shore running in panic, as if there were wild beasts chasing them.
Late at night, along the river bank and in the fields, the villagers were running around in panic and screaming. Anyone who saw this would be panicked. Even if they didn't think of monsters, they would think it was bandits who came down the mountain to kill people, although they had never heard of bandits on Pingshan Mountain. (To be continued)
