"Pei Wushang." Pei Wushang nodded towards Wang Xuejian, "Thank you."
"You should thank yourself, but don't be jealous of the eldest brother. The eldest brother is the adopted son of the lord, and his family was killed by monsters just like you. He was even worse than you. The eldest brother was born in a wealthy family. When the lord found him, he was the only one in his family of 137 who survived. He escaped by hiding in a water tank, but if the lord hadn't found him at that time, he would have been boiled alive. He's dead, Senior Brother Sui hates Xie Sui very much." Wang Xuejian said.
"I don't hate him, I just hate myself for being powerless. If I could come back sooner..." Pei Wushang clenched his fists.
"If you come back early, you will die too." The white-haired old man came over and said, "With your current skills, you can't even deal with the lowest corpse, let alone protect your family."
"Master." Wang Xuejian said respectfully.
The white-haired old man smiled and raised his hand, signaling Wang Xuejian not to interrupt him: "What are your plans? Boy."
"I... I want to find the murderer, the murderer of my family."
"But you lack strength. Even if you find it, you will just lose your life for no reason." The white-haired old man put it bluntly.
"I..." Pei Wushang lowered his head.
As the spies and disciples gradually left, the scene became deserted. Pei Wushang buried his family with his own hands, while Pei Xiaocai was always on the side, motionless like a statue.
"If a ghoul doesn't eat, he will die in a month and turn into a mummy. You know what I mean by food. My child, their food is flesh and blood, and we..."
"Ghouls can move during the day, but at noon, when the sun is the strongest, don't let your sister shine directly in the sun. Your sister will die and burn directly... Even the most powerful monster will not shine at noon. In front of the sun, you will never be able to last three breaths, because the sun at noon is when the yang energy is the strongest, which is why the beheading time is hung at this time... "
"Ghoulies are also divided into strong and weak levels, and your sister is now equivalent to a human infant. Don't let her eat human flesh. The reason why your sister is so docile now is because she has not tasted the taste of meat. Once she tastes it, I won’t be able to quit in the future…”
When the white-haired old man left, he talked a lot to Pei Wushang, and Pei Wushang also listened to it. He secretly vowed to protect his sister and find a way to turn her back into a human being. No matter how slim the solution was, he would Going to give it a try.
Pei Wushang dismantled the wooden bed at home and made it into a coffin. He mixed resin and straw ash to fill every gap in the coffin. It looked like a black and unfashionable wooden pile, but It just fits Pei Xiaocai's body inside.
Pei Wushang suddenly turned around and looked at the simple wooden house where he had been raised. His legs seemed to move involuntarily as he walked towards the house.
At this time, Pei Xiaocai, who was squatting in the coffin, also stood up. Although she had a talisman on her head, she could still move around.
Pei Wushang came to his mother's bedroom. The display in the bedroom was very simple, with a wardrobe, a coffee table and a bed. His father would often move a small stool and write something on the coffee table.
On the coffee table, there are four knitted scarves, which were knitted by his mother for her four children. His mother's love made Pei Wushang's childhood very happy, even though his mother was frail and sick.
"Mother..." Pei Wushang put a scarf around Pei Xiaocai's neck, even though Pei Xiaocai didn't feel the cold.
When the scarf was wrapped around her, her body trembled obviously. She didn't know if she remembered something or if the talisman became loose, but that didn't matter anymore.
Pei Wushang took off his father's bow and sword and put them on himself, but when he pulled out the sword, he saw that the sword was already covered with rust.
"Dad, why do you make me practice one stab every day?" Pei Wushang often practiced martial arts under his father's supervision when he was young.
His father was very strict. He rubbed Pei Wushang's hair lovingly. There were many stories hidden on his scarred face. His father said, "It is enough to do one thing well in this life."
“…”
Thinking about things, Pei Wushang put the rusty sword in his arms. He gritted his teeth and said, "My father was so strong, but he still died in the hands of monsters. I..."
He loosened his clenched fists, came to the door, and glanced at the moon outside: "Let's go."
Pei Xiaocai followed Pei Wushang in a hurry. Since it was daytime, Pei Wushang did not need to let her enter the coffin to avoid the erosion of the sun.
The two brothers and sisters were walking side by side as usual.
Suddenly, Pei Xiaocai grabbed Pei Wushang's hand. Whether it was instinct or being pulled by Pei Wushang, they were about to leave home and seek refuge with their uncle.
Pei Wushang didn't know the origin of his uncle, but his father often said that it seemed that the relationship between the two brothers was not good, but he was indeed Pei Wushang's relative.
Just as the two were about to go down the mountain, there was another rustling sound in the grass, like a night owl, but Pei Wushang smelled the smell of blood, which made Pei Wushang very uneasy.
Xinghua Village is surrounded by dense trees, so there are many hunters. Xinghua Village is also known as the Orion Village. The prey they hunt will be sent to the capital to be sold, although they can't sell it for a lot of money. , but better than nothing.
Pei Wushang slowly pushed aside the grass, only to find a woman lying deep in the grass. He knew this woman. She was the granddaughter of Old Man Sun's family at the entrance of the village. She was a slim girl. He heard that they had arranged a baby marriage. , getting married after the Chinese New Year.
But now Miss Sun was lying in the grass. She looked frightened, but she was already dead. Her eyes were bloodshot and wide.
On her body, there was an old man with a rickety appearance. The old man had disemboweled her and held half of her intestines in his mouth!
"Well..." Pei Wushang covered his mouth, but at this time, the old man turned around slowly. He turned out to be Old Man Sun, but Old Man Sun grinned and looked as fierce as an evil ghost, but his His face was covered with tears.
He was crying while biting his granddaughter's body, his expression was painful, but very scary!
"Woooo..."
Old Man Sun made a sound similar to howling, and suddenly saw Pei Wushang. He looked like a frightened wild dog. He arched his body to protect his granddaughter, just like a hound protecting food. , roaring towards Pei Wushang.
Pei Wushang was so frightened that he sat down on the ground. However, the next moment, Old Man Sun suddenly launched an attack. He jumped up, his hands were covered with sharp nails. The old man who had no teeth now actually had sharp teeth. , shining coldly under the moonlight!
"Whoa!" Old Man Sun rushed towards Pei Wushang. Pei Wushang rolled and hid behind a small tree. Old Man Sun twisted his head and bit the trunk of the tree!
"Crack!"
"Grandpa Sun, it's me. I'm Ah Shang. I even helped you fetch water for your home. It's me!" Pei Wushang shouted, but Old Man Sun remained ferocious and continued to attack. The tree trunk was The sharp teeth of his mouth were biting off, wood chips were flying everywhere, and a few wooden thorns were inserted into Old Man Sun's face.
But Old Man Sun couldn't feel the pain and launched an attack on Pei Wushang. Pei Wushang held onto his father's fallen sword, but he was afraid that the rusty sword would break. He gritted his teeth and picked up a wooden stick. He stabbed Old Man Sun directly in the mouth.
Phew, this stick directly pierced Old Man Sun's fragile neck!
Black blood splashed on Pei Wushang's face, and Pei Wushang's heart went blank. He thought that Old Man Sun was dead, but in fact it was not that simple. Old Man Sun was not dead, and Old Man Sun's sharp claws were already pointing towards him. He dug out Pei Wushang's eyes, but he wasn't dead!
Just when Pei Wushang was about to be stabbed, a silent Pei Xiaocai suddenly appeared from nowhere and pierced Old Man Sun's heart with one claw.
"Xiaocai?" Pei Wushang turned around slowly, only to find that Xiaocai had a rabbit in her mouth. She spit the rabbit aside and started drooling towards Miss Sun.
"No!" Pei Wushang immediately covered Pei Xiaocai's eyes to prevent her from looking at Miss Sun, because once Pei Xiaocai is contaminated with human flesh, he may never be able to quit.
