Just say it. "
Jiao Tu and Suan Ni nodded together.
"Don't play games for too long."
Ying Qiao gave another order before leaving in a hurry.
***
The babies outside were crying one after another, and from time to time there was the sound of wind driven by fluttering wings. Xue Meng even smelled the faint smell of blood in the air.
His heart was beating fast, worried that Jiang Li was injured, he swallowed a few times, and cautiously groped to the window, trying to take a look at the situation outside.
It was too dark outside, and he stared at it for a long while with wide eyes, before he barely got used to the darkness. Relying on the shining red eyes, he could vaguely distinguish the appearance of the monster.
It was a huge strange bird, and the wind that flapped its wings could blind people's eyes.
But at this time, the strange bird was pressed to the ground by another bigger black monster, no matter how much it fluttered its wings, it couldn't struggle.
Xue Meng saw that the monster bit off the head of the strange bird, and a large amount of blood splashed out, and some even splashed to the window. Xue Meng's nose was filled with an indescribable smell of blood. He didn't dare to look at the two monsters again, trying to find Jiang Li's figure.
But he didn't find Jiang Li, instead he found Jiang Li's white T-shirt in the corner.
The white was particularly conspicuous in the darkness, and Xue Meng looked at it several times in disbelief before he had to be sure that he was not dazzled.
Jiang Li's clothes were thrown in the corner, but he disappeared.
There was a huge panic in Xue Meng's heart. He didn't even care about the monsters outside, and shouted in a trembling voice: "Jiang Greed..."
His faint voice rang far in the silent night.
But no one answered him.
Xue Meng's nose was sore and his eyes were wet. He slowly squatted down and covered his face. After a while, he took out his mobile phone with shaking hands, turned on the recording, and recorded what happened today as much as possible with a nasal voice. At the end of the recording, he left his last words, saved the audio, turned off his phone, and hid it in an inconspicuous corner of the house.
After doing all this, he wiped away his tears, clenched the fruit knife, gritted his teeth and got up, ready to go to Huang Zhishu first.
Even if he doesn't survive tonight, he still has to be backed up!
Xue Meng resolutely pushed the door open, but suddenly stopped in his tracks. Just in front of him, Jiang Li was squatting on the ground with his back to him, wiping his face with a tissue in his hand.
Where he was squatting, the monster and the strange bird were gone, only a pile of scattered feathers and a strong smell of blood remained.
Jiang Greed heard the movement behind him, turned around, and smiled at Xue Meng: "It's all right."
His face was already white, but in this dark night, it became even whiter, so white that it was almost unhuman.
Xue Meng noticed that there was still a dark red blood stain on the corner of his mouth that hadn't been wiped off, so he took a step back vigilantly, raised a fruit knife towards him, and asked calmly, "What did you do to Jiang Li?"
He glanced at it out of the corner of his eye, and the white T-shirt he saw before was gone. Mostly it was used as a disguise by the monster in front of him.
Xue Meng sniffed, thinking that the good people would just disappear, without even leaving a trace.
In my heart, I hated Zhishu Huang for causing them to such an extent.
"You can't fool me. Do you still want to eat people?" He pointed to Huang Zhishu's room and said, "There are still people hiding in there. How about we make a deal? If you eat me in the end, I will help you." Drive out those who are hiding inside."
His eyes were bloodshot, and although he tried his best to restrain himself, the hand holding the fruit knife was still trembling slightly.
Obviously terrified.

Jiang Greed:? ?
He looked at himself in bewilderment, making sure he had changed back into a human form, and then looked at Xue Meng, who had an expression on his back even if he died, with great doubts in his eyes: "Put down the knife first, I am Jiang Greedy!" , not from monsters."
Xue Meng stuck his neck and didn't believe his words at all: "I'm less than one hundred and thirty catties, and my body is full of bones and no meat. You must not be able to eat enough. The people hiding in that room are much fatter than me. There must be many."
The more he spoke, the smoother he said: "You eat him first, then me. You will definitely be full."
Jiang Greed: ...
An idea popped up in his mind, and he asked tentatively, "Did you see it?"
Xue Meng's heart tightened, and his reaction was quick: "I didn't see anything!"
Jiang Greed: ...
This reaction was probably due to seeing his real body.
Scratching his face, Jiang Li tried to lower his voice, and explained with a little guilt: "Did you see a big, majestic black with horns..." He originally wanted to use animals, but he thought about it It felt inappropriate again, and changed a word that Xue Meng could understand: "... monster?"
Xue Meng looked at him warily, not understanding why this monster would expose himself.
"That monster is me." Jiang Greed honestly said, "I'm not actually a human being. I'm sorry to scare you."
Xue Meng:? ?
He looked at Jiang Greed dubiously, but the hand holding the knife drooped a little: "Why should I trust you?"
Jiang Greed thought for a while and hesitated, "Why don't I change back and show you?"

Xue Meng: ...
Thinking of the scene where the black monster bit off the head of the strange bird, he really didn't want to go through it again.
"… no need."
"Then you believe me?" Jiang Greed asked.
Xue Meng didn't say yes or no, he rolled his eyes and said, "You go with me first to tie up that old boy of Huang Zhishu."
He really held a grudge. They were busy solving problems for the village, but this old man wanted to feed them to strange birds. All he wanted now was to drag that old thing out and beat him up.
Jiang Greed just wanted to ask Huang Zhishu what happened to these Gu sculptures, so he agreed and went with him to the main room to find Huang Zhishu.
Xue Meng walked in front aggressively, but kept a distance from Jiang Li as if there was nothing.
Jiang Greed thought that he knew his true self had a grudge in his heart, and his eyes suddenly became a little sad.
The two found Huang Zhishu's room in the dark. Xue Meng kicked open the door angrily, then fumbled to find the switch, and turned on the light. It's just that although the lights are on, it's like a horror movie, the light is dim and flickering.
But at least I could see the inside of the house.
Huang Youtian, an old man, hid behind the cabinet, huddled behind a huge gray and black feather. Xue Meng recognized this feather, which was on the strange bird with red eyes.
"You really want to feed us to the birds." Xue Meng fiercely tore off the feathers, kicked him over, and rushed forward to choke his neck.
Huang Youtian didn't expect that they were still alive, so he struggled in fear, and seemed to be afraid that the noise would attract monsters, so he lowered his voice and begged for mercy: "Don't hit, don't hit, those things will be attracted if there is too much noise."
"I will send you to feed the birds now." Xue Meng punched him twice in the face, dragged him by the collar, and looked like he was about to go out and die together.
Jiang Greed hurriedly stopped him: "Ask what's going on in the village first."
Xue Meng froze, looked him up and down, for a long time, tried to pinch his arm again, and suddenly let out a strange cry: "Fuck, it's true!"
He was so moved that he was about to cry, he rushed forward and hugged Jiang Li, and hit him hard on the back a few times: "I thought you were eaten by a monster..."
Jiang Greed struggled to tear him off, and said speechlessly, "Didn't I just say that?"
Xue Meng wiped his red eyes, and muttered: "I thought it was a monster that turned into you to lie to me, so I just counted on it..."
Jiang Greed: ...
Then you are really good.
After confirming that Jiang Greed is not dead, Xue Meng is as if he has found the backbone, and he is no longer gloomy. He keeps babbling excitedly: "Let's tie up this old thing first, his family has a tricycle, let's drive out to call the police... "
As he spoke, he became worried again: "I'm afraid the police won't believe us..."
Jiang Greed: "Listen to me first."
Xue Mengshou shut up in seconds, especially flattering: "Oh, you said."
"This black mist is weird, and it shouldn't be able to get out for a while." Jiang Greed pointed to the dark sky above his head. Xue Meng looked up, only to find that it was not the sky he thought, but a thick black fog that seemed to be surging.
He faltered, and unconsciously leaned against Jiang Li.
Jiang Greed squatted down, took something casually and patted Huang Zhishu's face: "What's going on in the village? Where did the black mist and strange birds come from?"
Huang Zhishu's eyes dodged: "I, I don't know..."
Jiang Li's face turned cold, his five fingers suddenly turned into claws, and he grinned and showed his sharp teeth: "If you don't say it, I will eat you now."
Huang Zhishu watched helplessly as his human hand turned into the claws of some wild beast. The sharp claws were like steel knives, and a bloody gash was drawn on his body with just one touch.
He had no doubt that if he didn't say anything, the other party would turn into a monster and swallow him in one gulp.
"I, I'm actually not very clear... These things have been there for many years, and we can't do anything about them. They are in the cemetery in the north. You can take a look and you will understand..."
There was indeed a problem with that cemetery.
"Are there still those strange birds in the back mountain?" Jiang Greed asked.
Huang Zhishu rolled his eyes and wanted to say no. But meeting his cold eyes, he still hesitated to tell the truth: "Yes, yes..."
Jiang Gu narrowed his eyes happily, picked him up, and asked Xue Meng to find the rope: "Let's go to the cemetery first, and you should stay outside first."
Xue Meng found the rope, and threw Huang Zhishu's tie firmly on the open space in front of the house. There were still strange bird feathers and dirty blood there. Huang Zhishu rolled twice on the ground, begging for mercy in horror.
Jiang Greed looked at him indifferently, and said to Xue Meng: "I'm going to visit the cemetery, are you waiting for me here, are you still here?"
