Chapter 62.3 (1/2)
Xiao Tangqiu, “…Did you remember anything?”
Shen Yuan looked at Xiao Tangqiu and asked, “Should I remember something?”
Xiao Tangqiu forced out a smile, “Nothing, I misunderstood.”
Shen Yuan looked at Xiao Tangqiu silently and suddenly said, “Jiujiu should also pay more attention to me and don’t keep making eyes at that guy.”
…That guy? Xiao Tangqiu watched Shen Yuan silently and pointed at Tang Mianmian, “That’s not making eyes at, it’s just normal communicating through eye contact.”
Shen Yuan looked at Xiao Tangqiu with dark eyes, “Then Jiujiu can communicate with my eyes instead.”
Xiao Tangqiu looked at Shen Yuan for a few seconds and quickly looked away in silence, his heart inexplicably having a jolt.
He regretted it as soon as he looked away… Damn, would Shen Yuan feel awkward now?
Fortunately, at this moment, Duan Hongzhen suddenly gave a loud whisper, “We’re at the peak!”
Everyone looked up. Sure enough, a huge full moon hung not far away with nothing blocking it.
They had reached the top of the hill.
For some reason, the huge bright moon that hung above the peak was far scarier than the pitch-black night. The moonlight should give people the feeling of quiet gentleness, but, perhaps because it was huge to the extent of strange, it felt dangerous.
There were only the man and the old woman at the top of the hill under the moonlight. After the man put the old woman down, he hesitated for a long time, not wanting to leave.
The old lady smiled, “Taro, you should go. It’s time to go home.”
The man hesitated for a long time and finally turned and left under the old lady’s urging eyes. His steps were heavy and uneven as he went down the hill.
The old lady watched the man leave. It wasn’t until the man’s back completely disappeared from her sight that she dropped the smile on her face, her expression becoming calm and stiff.
She began to calmly wait for death to come.
Tang Mianmian who was hiding behind the grass couldn’t help but ask Xiao Tangqiu, “What should we do next? Just watch her be bitten to death by wolves?”
Xiao Tangqiu sighed, “Even if we save her again, I’m afraid she will still do it… because this is the” belief “in her heart. Simply saving her is probably useless.”
Tang Mianmian frowned, “Are we supposed to prove to her that the mountain god does not exist?”
Just as the two of them were looking at each other, a wolf’s howl suddenly sounded from nearby!
Dammit! The wolf was coming!
Xiao Tangqiu’s heart thudded in fear and he saw a black wolf suddenly jump down from the tree and landed directly in front of the old lady!
Even though the old lady was ready to dedicate herself to the mountain god, she still screamed and fainted when she saw such a terrible giant wolf.
Wait! Wrong! There seemed to be something wrong!
Xiao Tangqiu let out a yell, “That’s not a wolf!”
This black wolf was much bigger than an ordinary wolf and it was not the wolf that killed Junko that day! It’s wrong! This monster was not a wolf at all! Not only did it have five big tails raised towards the sky, but it also had a human face! And it’s more like a dog than a wolf!
This was a monster with a human face!
The others naturally also saw this. Duan Hongzhen raised his eyebrows and rushed forward. Xiao Tangqiu hesitated for a moment but also followed, one hand pulling Tang Mianmian and the other pulling Shen Yuan along.
Because of their sudden appearance, the human-faced dog monster was forced to stop attacking the old lady. It roared in rage, demonstratively shaking five big tails at them.
“Fuck! What kind of monster is this!” Tang Mianmian shouted in shock, “Not only are there five tails, it even has a human face! Isn’t it only foxes that have so many tails!”
Xiao Tangqiu forced himself to calm down, “It seems that there really is a dog monster with a human face in the Hundred Ghosts Night Parade…”
“What is it, what is it!” Tang Mianmian couldn’t wait to ask.
Xiao Tangqiu tried hard to recall, “Peng Hou, it’s originally from In Search of the Supernatural. It’s a monster with a human’s face and a dog’s body, grown from ancient trees, and its five tails each have one of the five powers of wind, water, fire, thunder and earth…”
Tang Mianmian, “…Fuck! It’s too strange!”
Just after Xiao Tangqiu spoke, Duan Hongzhen launched an attack on the human-faced dog monster. He moved his fingers and a small knife was immediately shot right towards the center of the monster’s head!
However, the monster was unscathed. It was completely enraged by Duan Hongzhen.
“Roar!” It roared angrily, fanning one of its tails furiously. A gust of wind instantly rose!
Seeing the violent wind rushing towards him, Duan Hongzhen and the others quickly avoided it. Xiao Tangqiu was quickly pulled aside under Shen Yuan’s sharp eyes and quick reflexes. Only Tang Mianmian was unable to dodge and was immediately flipped around for several meters before being stopped by a tree.
