The old woman was silent for a while and said, "Since the war in the first year of Jingkang, we have been starving, with less food every day, and in the end we have no food to eat... The village chief's family couldn't help it, so they ate their starving daughter-in-law. The scandal spread throughout the countryside, but no one accused them, but they followed suit..."

"Wait." I interrupted, "In the first year of Jingkang? Wasn't that the Northern Song Dynasty destroyed? It's nine hundred years since now."

"Yes." The old woman sighed: "We finally survived the war years by eating dead human flesh. When we had food later, we could not eat it at all! We would spit it out when we ate it! The same is true for chicken, duck, fish and meat! For some reason, we could only eat human flesh, and if we didn't eat it for a month, we would starve to death!"

The bastard asked incrediblely: "So, you have lived until now?"

The old woman smiled bitterly: "I don't know if this is considered alive. We seem to be trapped in a cage. As long as we leave the village, we will die. Moreover, our bodies are also rotting, but it's just a slow pace... Later, the village chief taught us illusions. We specially attracted passers-by. After we caught them, we forced them to write letters, contact relatives and friends, and deceived more people into Anning Village."

The bastard covered his mouth in shock: "Brother, this is a thrilling version of pyramid scheme!"

I waved my hand and signaled the bastard to shut up. I looked at the old woman and asked, "Has no one ever appeared in the same place for so many years?"

"Of course some people have come to see, but we know how to do illusions. If the people from the county government come to investigate the case, we will not take action. Anyway, they can't find any evidence. In the past few hundred years, several Taoist priests have come, including three-legged cats and masters, but without exception, they all died here... One of the powerful old Taoist priests actually killed my grandson's body with a peach wood sword! So, my grandson became an evil spirit and directly opened the old Taoist priest's belly! Before he died, it was a pity that he did not have the heavenly eyes, otherwise he would have been able to see through us."

The old woman glanced at the bastard and continued, "After the death of the old Taoist priest, we grabbed his soul and asked some things about the 'Sky Eye'. The old Taoist priest, the heavenly eye is very powerful, and can see through all the demons and ghosts in the world. It's a pity that it's too rare. One of them may not appear in hundreds of years, so we didn't take it seriously. The old Taoist priest's souls were mutated and could no longer be considered humans, but monsters, people-eating monsters. In anger, I broke up the souls of the old Taoist priest."

The bastard interrupted and said, "Brother, they have to eat one person in a month. How many people do they have to eat in more than nine hundred years!"

The old woman hurriedly said, "Actually, we don't like to eat human flesh very much, but if we don't eat it, we will die. Therefore, eating one person in our village every month is enough."

"There are tens of thousands of people!" the bastard shouted, "Where have the bones gone?"

Before the old woman could answer, I said, "If you guessed correctly, you should have thrown it into the stinky pond behind the village."

"That's right!" the old woman admitted readily.

I nodded: "The last question is that you may not have enough human flesh, so why should you give it to Professor Luo and others?"

"Because... we are not monsters! So, I like to watch living people eat their own kind! As long as I use an illusion to disguise them as mutton, they will eat with relish!" the old woman roared sickly.

After roaring, he rushed towards the bastard!

The bastard quickly took out a stack of yang talismans from his bag, and after igniting it, he threw it directly on the old woman's face! Because the old woman's body was covered with cinnabar, she also pasted a Tiangang talisman. After encountering the yang fire, it directly burned into a fireball! But she continued to rush towards the bastard! She shouted: "I want to kill you, the Heavenly Eye! Don't you harm the people in the village!"

"Bitch, run!" I rushed over too!

The old woman was very fast, and the situation of a slut is very dangerous! After I rushed over, I grabbed the slut's wrist and ran!

So, such a scene appeared in the woods, two men were running hand in hand, and a big fireball was chasing her desperately.

Because we were in a panic, we actually ran to the vicinity of the tent! At this time, the archaeological team seemed to have a dispute, but after seeing the situation on our side, we were all stunned.

The old woman was so burned that she screamed repeatedly, and at this moment, she suddenly yelled: "Go to die!"

I quickly stretched out my feet, tripped the bastard man, and then lay on the ground! With a "boom" from behind, the old woman's soul exploded like a balloon, and the evil spirit raged, and Mars flew everywhere! Because the distance was too close, the bastard and I were covered with a lot of Mars. I quickly rolled on the ground twice to put out the fire, but the bastard was very panicked and jumped and shouted: "Brother! I'm so angry!"

I hurried forward and helped him extinguish the fire on his body. The bastard said with lingering fear: "Brother, does the old woman not let us go even if she dies?"

"What's messing around? What's splashing on us is the burning cinnabar." I glanced at the bastard and said, "Okay, don't talk nonsense. After the cinnabar burns, mercury will be generated. Get out of here quickly."

Xu Ningrou walked up and asked, "Xiaolong, are you okay?"

"It's okay. Ningrou, what did you seem to be arguing about just now?"

Afterwards, my eyes swept across everyone, and they all lowered their heads and did not dare to look at me. The same is true for Professor Luo. He had scolded us for being superstitious before, but now he has nothing to say.

Judging from the expressions of several people, what they just argued about... seems to be about me.

Sure enough, Xu Ningrou confirmed my guess.

"Xiaolong, we had some argument just now. Doudou and I were going to help you, but Professor Luo and the others disagreed. They escaped first and called the police. Before the argument could be made, you were back."

I glanced at a few people and said, "It's okay, saving lives is a normal reaction. Professor Luo, you can leave, but you can't call the police."

Professor Luo said angrily: "I have two colleagues alive, why can't I call the police!"

I snorted coldly: "So you still remember two colleagues alive, and they ran so fast? Humph, those monsters can invisibly open the intestines and break the belly of a person, and it is difficult for me to deal with it. Do you think it will be useful if the police come? I will die in vain. You go, don't spread the matters about this, otherwise you will be the one who ruins your reputation."

Professor Luo promoted atheism for a lifetime, and suddenly there were ghosts in the world, which would definitely ruin their reputation.

I don't let him, nor do I want the world to know that ghosts exist, because they will cause panic.

Professor Luo and others drove away, leaving only Xu Ningrou, Doudou, me and the bastard.

Doudou asked, "Hey, Xiao Li, am I loyal enough?"

"It's so loyal." I replied with a smile, then looked at Xu Ningrou: "Ningrou, can you find a car?"

Xu Ningrou nodded gently, "I'll find someone to arrange it..."

After Xu Ningrou called, the car arrived after only half an hour. After the four of us got in, we returned to the city.

At the airport, Xu Ningrou asked, "Xiaolong, what are your plans next?"

I said with a serious expression: "There are two more people in the archaeological team who are not dead. I have to sneak into the village and rescue them. In addition, there are dozens of monsters in the village. I am definitely not the opponent of the Guy Man. But I know people from the Taoist Association, and they will definitely come to help."

"Xiaolong, why don't I let my family..."

Xu Ningrou means to transfer some personal bodyguards from her house.

I shook my head: "No matter how many ordinary people come, it's useless. You can go back first. As soon as the matter is over here, I will go to find you."

"Then be careful."

I blinked and said, "Can you still believe my skills? Besides, Jian Nan is there, and there are also two of them to take care of."

"Yes." Xu Ningrou bit her lower lip lightly: "Fortunately you are here this time, otherwise..."

I smiled and interrupted, "Okay, go to the security check soon. I want to thank me and wait until I come back..."

After seeing off Xu Ningrou and Doudou, I said to the bastard: "Okay, it's time for us to go back to Anning Village."

"Brother, we came out just to send Sister Ningrou?"

"Yes, because I'm afraid there are unclean things to follow them."

The bastard asked in confusion: "But, the old woman is all there, they can't leave the village, otherwise they will be scattered."

"That's just one-sided words. Now I feel it's a bit credible. Okay, don't talk nonsense, we have to go back and save people."

The bastard protested: "Brother, at least I let me eat a bowl of noodles. I haven't eaten yet and my stomach is hungry."

I rolled my eyes and found a noodle restaurant at the airport. I ordered two bowls of noodles. While waiting, I called Zhu Hansong and briefly described the matter. As an elder of the Taoist Association, Zhu Hansong said that this matter was very serious and would immediately organize people and fly over to help!

While eating, the bastard was chewing something in his mouth and asked vaguely: "Brother, the talismans are almost used up. How can we save people?"

I glared at him: "I'm so embarrassed? You used a stack of yang talismans at once just now!"

"Brother, I saw two kinds of talismans in my bag, one is the yang talisman and the other is the Tiangang talisman. I remembered it very clearly. You have been with me. Each Tiangang talisman costs 700 yuan. I was not willing to use it, so I took the Yang talisman."

I almost vomited blood because the cost of a stack of yang talismans costs 3,000 yuan!!

Resisting the urge to put a bowl of noodles on the face of the bastard, I said in a bad tone: "Eat quickly, it's already three o'clock in the afternoon. Let's take advantage of the darkness to sneak into the village and rescue people first..."
