Jiang Qing coughed lightly, tidied up her expression, then went to the window to look out, then pulled her slippers back to the bed and lay down with her clothes, and said, "Go to sleep."

Xue Meng put a wrench under her pillow and a fruit knife hidden in her pants, so how could she sleep?

And there is such a large lantern hanging outside.

"Don't you need to take that lantern?" Xue Meng felt uneasy. It was pitch black outside, and there was a lantern hanging outside their house, just like an indicator light, as if he was making a special trip to them.

Jiang Qing closed her eyes: "I've seen the tea stems in the lanterns, just the things we drink in the tea during the day."

Calling tea stalks, I don’t know what it is.

But there is one thing that Jiang Hui can be sure of, that is, what this thing may attract. They drank tea during the day and must have left a smell. There is no big difference between having lanterns or not.

Maybe Secretary Huang was worried and took another insurance.

Xue Meng stopped talking at once. He turned over a few times and then calmed down.

Jiang Qing lay on the outside of the bed, with her hands folded on her abdomen, looking like she was asleep. She was thinking in her heart that no matter what she came later, she must taste better.

...

The surroundings gradually became quiet, and the darkness outside seemed to flow in from the window. In the darkness, only a lantern under the eaves of the window emitted a faint light.

Suddenly, a shrill barking from outside came from outside, cutting through the silence and darkness.

Xue Meng pressed his throat and asked in anger, "Don't you keep a dog in the village?"

During the day, they went around the village and did not see any family raising dogs.

"Yeah. Come..."

Jiang Qing opened her eyes, sat up and covered Xue Meng's mouth: "Don't talk later, don't run around. Just stay in the room, I'll ask you to come out, and you will come out again. Remember?"

Xue Meng nodded, afraid that he would not see it, so he said "um" very lowly.

At this time, the shrill dog barking gradually weakened, as if it was mixed with whimpers showing weakness.

The dog barking disappeared. Instead, the sharp cry of the baby.

One sound after another, sharp and harsh, as if it was about to pierce a person's eardrum.

With the dim light, you can vaguely see something passing by the window. A gust of wind suddenly broke out outside, causing the window to sound dull and the only illuminated lantern was scraped off.

The house was completely in darkness.

The sharp and harsh baby's crying was getting closer and closer.

Xue Meng lay on the bed stiffly, staring straight into the direction of the window. There was only darkness there, but he felt a faint light flashing.

Then, a red light lit up.

The light looked a bit strange. The wick was black but it glowed red. It flashed twice from time to time...

And, where did the lights come from at this time?

Xue Meng's mind was in a mess, but her eyes couldn't move away, and she stared at the lamp. The more she looked at it, the more she felt... it was not a lamp, but a red eye.

Eyes as big as lanterns... How big is the thing outside?

A fine and dense cold sweat oozed out from the back, Xue Meng's brain solidified, and his body couldn't help but slamming his body.

His eyes were still wide open, and he saw the red eye blinking, and then changed to another eye.

——The monsters outside are observing them.

After realizing this, Xue Meng even breathed lightly. The baby outside stopped crying, and the house could hear his violent heartbeat in the room.

He felt Jiang Qing reaching out to pat his head, and then a cold night beside him, Jiang Qing got up and got out of bed.

The red eye by the window didn't blink.

The room was too dark, and Xue Meng could only vaguely see Jiang Qing's outline, see where he was going, and realize that he was going out.

There were faint sounds coming from outside, like a child laughing with a sharp voice.

A creaking sound came from the darkness. It was Jiang Qing who opened the door and went out. The red eye beside the window blinked and disappeared.

The cry of the baby outside sounded again. Xue Meng took a few deep breaths to calm himself down, took out the fruit knife from his pocket, and held it hard in his hand.

Jiang Qing opened the door and set up a barrier in the west room. She finally looked at the strange birds hovering over the village.

That's right, there are more than one strange bird, but a group of them.

The one closest to him was standing by the window, looking at him greedily, with sharp teeth and dripping saliva visible in his open beak.

It is about two meters high, with half-open wings and bent downwards. It is obvious that it was the one who just stuck to the window to observe.

Jiang Qing looked at the ugly and unique bird face with dead branches on its head and finally found the name of the strange bird from her memory.

"Gu Diao?"

The Gu Diao is an ancient monster with two horns on its head, and looks like a carving. Its voice is like a baby crying. It likes feeding on people.

The Gu eagles are cruel and often come out in groups. They once fought for a place in ancient times. However, after the catastrophe, they disappeared.

Unexpectedly, he would meet here. Jiang Qing licked her lips and counted roughly. When she found that there were five Gu eagles here, her smile couldn't help but grow bigger.

His figure suddenly changed, turning into a giant beast with black scales with cow's horns and black scales. His scarlet vertical pupils flashed with bloodthirsty dark light, no longer harmless when they were human. His fierce momentum dispersed around him as the center.

Jiang Qing raised her head and let out an excited roar. Her huge body instantly jumped into the air, accurately and quickly bit a Gu eagle hovering in the air.

The shrill baby crying in the dark came one after another. The blood fell on the ground like rain, and the air soon filled with blood.

Seeing this, the other Gu eagles widened their red eyes and made even more harsh screams. However, none of them dared to step forward first.

Jiang Hui chewed the prey into his stomach a few times, and then spit out a few rough bird feathers in disgust. The meat of Gu Diao was fresh and tender, but he probably lived in human society for a long time, and he actually felt that it would be better if he plucked his hair and roasted it.

He thought to himself, and the red vertical pupils swept around the bodies of several Gu eagles.

These Gu eagles are thin skin and tender flesh, and they are very tender in fighting. Obviously, they are not old fried dough sticks that have lived from ancient times to the present, but they are more like newly grown young birds. Otherwise, they would not hesitate to stay where they are not running.

Jiang Qing licked her mouth and pounced on her again...

***

Jiangcheng.

Ying Qiao was playing Landlord with Jiaotu and Yanyan.

Recently, the two brothers have been tired of Penguin Speed ​​and have switched to fighting against Landlords.

But both brothers were greedy, and Doudou had already lost almost. After finally saving some capital by signing in, the fifth brother was not here, so the two brothers happily fought against the landlord.

Ying Qiao was originally staying in his "small residence" with discomfort. When he thought about staying here for a week, he felt uncomfortable.

Until the uninterrupted failure sound effects forced his thoughts.

Jiaotu held the tablet and slid his arm. The two brothers had exactly the same tone.

One said: "The last two thousand beans are here."

One said: "Can't lose any more."

Ying Qiao listened on the side. He felt that these two little boys lost too badly, so he couldn't help but help.

Then for some reason, it turned out to be a fight with the two little kids to landlords.

After the last game, after winning back the two brothers' lost Doudou, Ying Qiao consciously took on Brother Yan's responsibility, confiscated the tablet, and urged the two brothers to go to bed.

He looked at the time, at 2 a.m.

Probably...it's probably not too late, right?

The two little boys went back to the room. Ying Qiao put away the tablet and was about to go to rest, but Chen Hua called in and asked anxiously: "Which village did you tell Jiang Qing go to to help the poverty alleviation today? Is he back?"

Ying Qiao frowned slightly and said, "Sanshui Village should be back in the afternoon? I sent him a message, but haven't replied yet."

"What's wrong?"

He had only thought that Jiang Xun was too tired from work, so he didn't reply to the message. Now he is not sure.

Chen Hua took a deep breath on the other end of the phone: "The Special Management Bureau monitored the Sanshui Village, and suddenly there was a large area of ​​miasma. It may not be ordinary miasma, but a ghost miasma formed by the accumulation of deep resentment over time."

He licked his lips and said very hard: "The people they sent to investigate also found traces of the infestation of the Gu eagle group nearby."

In fact, the Sanshui Village area was monitored for miasma, and it was not large in size. It only appeared at night for a while and then disappeared quickly. The Special Management Bureau did not find any more abnormalities and victims, so it was judged that the danger was not great and did not report it.
