Legend of Xianghuang

Early in the morning, before even the roosters in the village crowed, Ouyang Jin closed the door softly and walked out of the village along the path in the village.

It was still dark, but Ouyang Jin walked quickly.

Over the past few years, she has walked along this road every two days until reaching Jiaoyang City. She has already figured out the road thoroughly, and she knows where there are slopes and where there are pits without looking.

Ouyang Jin's feet are very fast, which is also the result of seeking medical treatment all the way for so many years.

When she was a child, her father also invited a master to teach her some leg skills. When she grew up, she took Ke Sui to see a doctor, and she had to take care of everything along the way. She was no longer a delicate and frail ordinary woman.

There was a time when Ke Sui could barely walk, and Ouyang Jin carried it all the way.

After about an hour, Ouyang Jin arrived in Jiaoyang City.Because I was anxious, it was a little earlier than usual.

In the past two days, they have relied on the brains of prey hunted by the villagers to replace pig brains, but there are always times when they return empty-handed.

Seeing that Ke Sui's speech became more and more difficult, and sometimes he even had to think through a sentence, Ouyang Jin became impatient.

No, I found Zhang Tuhu's house in Jiaoyang City early to try his luck.

Knocking on the door of Zhang Tuhu's house, Zhang Tuhu looked like he had just woken up, which made Ouyang Jin's heart sink.

Although she came earlier, in the past, it was time for butcher Zhang to clean the knives and prepare to start work.

Sure enough, Butcher Zhang looked at Ouyang Jin in surprise, and shook his head: "Why are you here? The city is not peaceful these days, it will be bad if you bump into something!"

Ouyang Jin gritted her teeth and said pleadingly: "Butcher Zhang, do me a favor and see if there is any pig slaughtering company. My cousin can't cut the pig's brain."

Ouyang Jin in front of him is an acquaintance who has bought pig brains for many years. Knowing the situation of her family, butcher Zhang can only shake his head helplessly: "I can't help it. Tell you, three families have died now! Every time I use The various parts of the dead people are cooked and placed on the table, in such a situation, how can pork be sold!"

Speaking of this, Butcher Zhang couldn't help but also shivered, and made a gesture to close the door: "I don't want to stop the business, there is really no way, you should go back quickly!"

Seeing the door close in front of her eyes, Ouyang Jin really wanted to say that she would buy the whole pig, but... she was running out of money.

Sighing, Ouyang Jin turned around and walked slowly.

She didn't know what to do, but she didn't want to go back to the village for a while.

Back to the village, there must be no other way.

Before he knew it, Ouyang Jin didn't know where he was, but there seemed to be strange movements on the other side of the wall.

She stopped to hold her breath, and the small movements from the other side of the wall came over little by little.

It was a very strange sound, a bit like chewing and swallowing, but there was a continuous "click" and "click", a bit like the sound of a big yellow dog gnawing on a bone, and it was shorter than that.

For some reason, Ouyang Jin thought of what Zhang Butcher said earlier.

She clenched her fists unconsciously, a little nervous.

Maybe it was a psychological effect, she could faintly smell a bloody smell.

In this situation, you should run away quickly and stay far away!But Ouyang Jin somehow raised her footsteps and walked quietly towards the gate of the house by touching the wall.

One step after another, Ouyang Jin felt that she was trembling violently, and she was burning hot, but there was a strange curiosity that attracted her to take a closer look.

Finally, she came to the corner, took a step, and landed.

The sounds in the yard stopped abruptly.

Ouyang Jin stopped and waited quietly, her heart beating like a drum.

The courtyard was silent.

After waiting for a while, Ouyang Jin finally couldn't bear it and walked towards the gate.

Getting closer.

Finally, she stood in front of the gate, looking in shock at the mess inside the gate.

The gate was wide open, and the red lanterns were still on, swaying in the wind.

It's just that this originally festive scene was torn apart ferociously by the scene in the yard.

There were several people lying on the ground—or in other words, they could no longer be called human beings. The blood flowed all over the ground, and most of them dried up. They looked viscous and horrible.

Broken limbs can be seen everywhere, discarded aside, and some seem to have been eaten, with gaps all over the place.

There was even a person, who could no longer tell whether he was a man or a woman, and his stomach was completely cut open, revealing a bloody abdominal cavity, facing the gradually whitening sky hollowly.

Ouyang Jin's stomach twitched, and he retched while holding the door.

The strong bloody smell coming from her nostrils made her want to flee immediately, and just barely moved to leave, but out of the corner of her eyes, she caught a glimpse of a white, familiar thing in the yard.

That's...the human brain.

Ouyang Jin said to herself.

brain.

What Xiaosui needs, the brain.

By accident, Ouyang Jin took a step into the yard.

Suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew directly on the back of Ouyang Jin's neck.

The hairs stand on end.

Ouyang Jin froze there, not daring to move.

She clearly felt that there was only the oncoming breeze at this moment. What was the obvious cold wind on the back of her neck? !

Could it be... the murderer is back? !

"Giggle giggling." As if answering what she was thinking, there was a strange laughter behind her, like teeth colliding, but it was much more obvious, "Another one, human~" Its tone rose, and its high-pitched voice pierced Ouyang Jin's ears hurt.

I don't know if it was stretched to the limit, Ouyang Jin suddenly no longer feared, she suddenly turned around and hit the unknown thing behind her, and at the same time she also stepped forward, but not outside.

Ouyang Jin ran into the yard, ignoring the blood on the bottom of her trousers, and went straight to the man who lost most of his head for some unknown reason.

Taking out the lotus leaf that had been prepared all along, Ouyang Jin reached out to scoop it up, and wrapped most of the human head that had been exposed in the lotus leaf.

Without stopping, he turned sharply and rushed towards the door.

I didn't see anything in the direction of the door, so Ouyang Jin didn't have time to think about it, and was about to rush out the door with blood on the ground.

However, the door was suddenly closed heavily, and Ouyang Jin slammed into it hard, and was knocked to the ground, only able to wrap the lotus leaf in her arms in time.

Plasma splashed everywhere, Ouyang Jin didn't use his hands to support his body, and lay on the ground on his back, stained with a large amount of blood.

Before she could sit up, a black thing suddenly appeared beside her head, looking at her from top to bottom.

It was just a thing, with the whiteness of the sky, but it was still a piece of black, like a person shrunk completely in black clothes, but not like a person.

"You, like to eat brains?" the thing asked, the voice was different from the previous laughter, it was a thick and thick male voice.

Ouyang Jin subconsciously wanted to hide the lotus leaf bag, but soon realized that it was useless, so she could only try to suppress her beating heart: "My family wants to eat it."

Then, she felt something like a sight sweep past her, and then the thing spoke again, this time it was a young girl's voice: "This way, I don't like it, I prefer the one in the stomach." The voice seemed very cheerful, "Is one enough? There are nine people here~"

It killed nine people, Ouyang Jin was terrified, but could only deal with it: "One is enough..."

The thing seemed to think of something, and clapped its hands: "Oh, yes, you must also like fresh ones!"

As he said that, Ouyang Jin saw the thing leave his side, and began to run around the corpses at a strange speed.

After a while, several dishes appeared on the only intact table next to them, filled with various meats, arranged like some home-cooked meat dishes.

Sure enough, it was the chief culprit who made Jiaoyang City full of troubles before.

"Okay!" The thing returned to Ouyang Jin's side, looking as if he had finished his work, and his voice became hoarse again, "Get up too, don't lie down!"

A force lifted Ouyang Jin up and made her stop.

The thing then looked at a piece of plasma on the ground: "You are human, it's not good to leave footprints, I will take you away."

Not allowing Ouyang Jin to say more, with another force, Ouyang Jin was lifted into the air, and after a while of dizziness, he stepped on the ground.

That thing had disappeared without a trace, leaving only a scalp-numbing "clack-cluck" sound.

If it weren't for Ouyang Jin's current body covered in blood and the heavy lotus leaf bag in his hand, what happened before would really have been a nightmare.

After all, this is reality, and Ouyang Jin can only continue to face it.

Trying to suppress her flustered heart, Ouyang Jin looked around, made sure that there was no one there, and took a step after identifying the direction.

This is the northeast of Jiaoyang City. She remembered that there were several streams on the way to the village, and she chose a quieter one to run to.

Finally ran to the side of the stream, looking at the clear water, Ouyang Jin couldn't wait to put down her lotus leaf bag and jump into a deeper place with her clothes on.

The whole body was soaked in blood exuding a disgusting smell, Ouyang Jin didn't care about other things, took off his clothes and rubbed them in the water again and again.

As the sun gradually rose, Ouyang Jin's smooth skin was already wrinkled.She rubbed her body several times, but there was still the lingering smell of blood in her nostrils.

However, she couldn't go on any longer.

Ouyang Jin calmed down a lot in the stream, put on her clothes again, and rushed to Pingyang Village regardless of getting wet.

The farmers had already got up early to go to work in the fields. Seeing that Ouyang Jin, who came back in a hurry, was covered in water, they all asked worriedly.

Ouyang Jin only said that she went out too early and didn't care about her feet. When she fell into the water, her face was full of joy: "I found a family who is willing to sell their pig brains to me."

Infected by Ouyang Jin's joy, everyone expressed their congratulations, and repeatedly reminded her to go back and change into clean clothes, so as not to catch a cold.

Ouyang Jin said yes, and passed the test smoothly.

No one doubted what Ouyang Jin said, even Ouyang Jin kept convincing himself that this was the case.

Standing still at the gate of the courtyard, Ouyang Jin repeated to herself with her eyes closed, and pushed the door open.

Ke Sui had long been standing at the window, anxiously looking in the direction of the door, and did not smile until Ouyang Jin appeared.

"Xiao Jin, I miss you so much!" Ke Sui smiled brightly, his eyebrows and eyes curved into crescent moons.

"Me too." Ouyang Jin closed the door, walked over with a smile, and lifted the things she was carrying, "I bought a pig's brain this time, let's go dig some radishes in the backyard later, and we will cook radish soup for drinking."

"Okay~" Ke Sui clapped his hands happily.

Her favorite is the radish soup cooked by Ouyang Jin.Even if there are pig brains in the soup that she doesn't like.

Seeing Ke Sui's happy face, Ouyang Jin's panicked heart finally settled down.

So what if he just dug out the brains of the dead?If it was for Xiaosui, she would do it even if it was digging up living people.

As long as Xiaosui can smile at her.

She, Ouyang Jin, is willing to use any means, even if she turns into a demon.
