Chapter 176: tragedy
Judging from Xia Hongyuan's description, Xia Feng was almost certain that it was the monster named Mo Slaughter recorded in the manual.
According to the records of the manual, this kind of monster does not appear at will, but usually appears with a curse.
Something that falls between the physical and the spiritual.
It can appear solid and disappear into the invisible, which is very scary.
What makes Xia Feng a little strange is that the two monkeys have not been eaten yet, how could they be cursed?
"Didn't those two monkeys not eat them?"
Hearing this, Xia Feng suddenly interrupted Xia Hongyuan.
"It wasn't eaten yet, but it was killed on the third day."
Xia Feng did not interrupt Xia Hongyuan again, and planned to wait for Xia Hongyuan to finish everything. After all, the curse is likely to come from the two monkeys, and it is very likely from the local man who sold them to them.
Seeing that Xia Feng stopped talking, Xia Hongyuan continued:
"No one believed what I said, even though I've definitely repeated it many times.
As for the collapse of the wooden pagoda, it was considered to be caused by the wind, but because I fired a gun for no reason, I was directly locked up.
Being in confinement is no different from facing the wall and thinking about it. A person stays in a small space and has no freedom at all.
During this period, Zheng Xiangyang and the others also came to see me and asked me what was going on.
I talked to them one by one, and asked about the two monkeys.
The result surprised me very much, but Zheng Xiangyang said that the monkey was still in the cage and did not escape. They all said that I had hallucinations, or I saw monkeys running out of the nearby forest. After all, monkeys all look alike.
Only I know very well that I have no hallucinations at all, because the collapse of the wooden tower is the best proof.
I emphasized it to them several times, but no one cared. I also advised them to let go of the two monkeys. I felt that animals like monkeys should not be eaten casually, otherwise they would inevitably suffer retribution. .
But they obviously didn't listen to me. I was locked up for three days, and when I went back, the cage was empty.
I asked them about the monkeys, and they said that they had already eaten them separately last night, and said they wanted to keep them for me, but they thought I wouldn't eat such things, so they didn't keep them.
After a few people finished eating, they all said that the taste was the same, and it was not as delicious as expected.
I asked them who killed the monkey. Zheng Xiangyang said that he and Lao Ding killed the monkey. The two of them grabbed the monkey and chopped off the head with a dagger.
When talking about this, Zheng Xiangyang also muttered, saying that the two monkeys were really strange, as if they had accepted their fate. When they were caught, they didn't even resist at all. I don't know if it's good or not. I hadn't eaten for a few days, and I was so hungry that I had no energy, and they easily chopped off my head.
After the head was chopped off, they went to the cooking class to steam it directly. As for the body, there was a red burn directly.
The monkey was eaten by several people, and the fear in my heart suddenly became more difficult to suppress, and I even had a premonition that something was going to happen.
I lay on the ground tossing and turning at night and couldn't sleep. It was quiet outside, the wind was very strong, and it was very noisy.
It sounds like there is a market, but this is obviously impossible, not to mention that there will be no market in the middle of the night, and even if there is, it is unlikely to be in our camp.
The noisy sound was hidden in the wind. I turned on the flashlight and wanted to go out to the toilet. As a result, the flashlight subconsciously lit a circle in the tent and found that Zheng Xiangyang did not know where to go.
I thought he was going to the toilet too, so I didn't think too much about it, so I went out with a flashlight.
But after I went out, I didn't see Zheng Xiangyang's people at all. I looked at the wooden pagoda, and he wasn't standing guard today, so I didn't know where they went.
Just when I was thinking about going back, I suddenly heard a chattering sound coming from the forest not far away.
It sounds like a monkey's cry.
I didn't know the reason at the time, so I walked over by ghosts and spirits, and as soon as I got in, I was so scared that I almost lost my soul.
Because I saw a cage that was used to house the two monkeys, and I actually saw Zheng Xiangyang in it!
His whole body was almost folded into a block of tofu, his eyes were staring at his face, and he was stuck to the edge of the cage, and the wire was almost sunk into his skin.
I was so frightened at the time that I hurriedly shouted at the person who was standing guard that there was a situation, and then the person sent a signal, and it didn’t take long for the entire camp to be alerted again.
It's just that this time is different from the last time. Zheng Xiangyang's body is in the cage, and everyone can see it clearly.
No one knew exactly how he got into the cage, and there was no way to even get his body out of the cage.
In the end, the cage was cut off and the corpse was taken out.
People are just dead, so although they are a little stiff, they can still be restored to their original state.
There were several deep and explicit wounds on his back. The wounds were very long, as if they were slashed from top to bottom by huge claws.
The entire back of the head was almost completely split, and the clothes on his back were turned into rags.
But the strange thing is that the soldiers on guard have been watching the surrounding on the wooden pagoda, including me and your Uncle Dong, who do not know when Zheng Xiangyang left the tent.
After that, people from the investigation team intervened, but in the end they didn't find out why.
Those of us feel that something is wrong, because looking at the wound, it is simply drawn out by the claws of the monster.
I immediately thought of the two monsters I saw when I was on guard that day, and I said it again.
But after saying it, even if they believed it a little, they still couldn't explain anything. They just felt sorry for Zheng Xiangyang and felt that he was killed by accident.
As for the two monsters with monkey faces, no one can tell exactly what they are.
But the weird thing didn't stop there. In the next two days, we all found out that Lao Ding was abnormal.
Because Lao Ding is just like the monkey grandson in Journey to the West, he walks on his waist completely, and keeps barking weirdly, and he grabs his hands now and then.
And also shouted that he saw the two monkeys that they had eaten before.
On the third day, Lao Ding was almost insane, so an order was given to send him back for treatment.
As a result, when we called and asked Lao Ding again, we learned that Lao Ding was dead.
The cause of death was so terrifying that he even took a scalpel from the hospital and cut off his own head!
After listening to it, we all felt that it was impossible, because how could there be so much strength, just cutting the throat would become very weak. But the other side was very firm on this point, and they did not find out what the reason was, and said that Lao Ding committed suicide. "
