Mechanical Flesh
Chapter 444: Bloodbath
Early the next morning, after the three met, they were preparing to leave when a somewhat old voice came from not far away.
"Are you ready to go to other villages?"
Qi Yuan didn't need to look back, he also knew that the speaker was the village chief.
As the only old man in the entire Dragon Bone Village, the village head is special. For so many days, he is the only one who has not performed sacrifices or reincarnated with death.
"We've been here for so long, we want to visit other villages," Qi Yuan said.
"Which village are you going to?" the village chief asked.
"Blood disaster village."
Qi Yuan didn't hide anything.
"Blood disaster village—" the village head pondered for a while, and said slowly:
"In fact, every village is the same. After several huntings, all outsiders will experience the same predicament as you. It becomes more and more difficult to find prey, and the range of hunting is getting farther and farther. There are many outsiders. As a last resort, I have to go hunting in the caves of scary beasts and highly poisonous broods."
"If you have reached that point and decide to go hunting in these forbidden areas, you can tell me in advance, and I can arrange a few villagers to go with you."
Qi Yuan raised his brows, never expecting that the village head would give such a condition.
But soon, Qi Yuan realized why the village chief was willing to do this. Most of the villagers who failed to hunt had not hunted their prey for a long time and disappeared on the last day.
They should have been forced to the point of no return. In order to avoid being devoured by the monsters of the night, they took the risk to hunt in dangerous forbidden areas, and then they died and fell into reincarnation.
The village chief didn't want to see these villagers take risks in the dangerous forbidden land, but he was even more unwilling to see them being swallowed by the night monster, so he proposed to let them go hunting with him in the dangerous forbidden land.
To some extent, the two sides do have the possibility of joining forces, but Qi Yuan keenly caught another message revealed by the village chief.
The village chief's fear of monsters in the night far exceeds his fear of dangerous forbidden places!
At the same time, this is also a hint from the village chief. He is hinting to himself that if he cannot find a suitable prey, even if he ventures to a dangerous forbidden area, he should not lie flat and be swallowed by darkness.
"I see. Thank you for your help. If the day comes when I can't find my prey, I will go back to Longgu Village and join hands with the villagers to explore the dangerous forbidden area." Qi Yuan said.
The village head nodded slightly.
"I won't give you this old bone. Be careful on the road!"
After the three of them bid farewell, they turned and left Dragon Bone Village, embarking on the road to Blood Disaster Village.
"The village chief has never set foot in Dragon Bone Village these days, is he unable to leave?" Mo Sheng asked.
"He should have some kind of special connection with the village or the statue," Qi Yuan said.
"However, I'm even more curious. How did he resist the erosion of the night monster without performing sacrifices? Or, the erosion of the night is just a lie, a lie that forces us to continue hunting."
Xia Zhiqiao frowned slightly, as if thinking about the authenticity of Qi Yuan's words.
"Every night, although I can't see the appearance of the monster, I can hear the breathing and footsteps of the monster outside the door, and I can even feel the penetration of the chill."
"I heard that too." Qi Yuan said.
"But have you ever wondered, since the houses we live in can block the entry of monsters at night, why can't they block their breathing and footsteps? Compared with the existence of monsters themselves, these movements should be easier to block."
"I remember the village chief said that no monster can survive the attack of the monster of the night, which means that no one has ever actually seen the monster of the night."
"Moreover, if every village relies on the protection of statues to avoid the invasion of monsters, then how do the insects and beasts in the dense forest survive the night? They don't have the protection of statues."
"You suspect that there are no monsters in the night?" Xia Zhiqiao asked.
"I do have this suspicion." Qi Yuan nodded.
"Unfortunately, this suspicion cannot be confirmed for the time being."
If you want to confirm whether there are monsters in the dark night, the easiest way is to open the door to face the monsters at night, or not to sacrifice for a month, to see if they will be taken away by monsters.
These two methods are too dangerous. If you guess wrong, you will die completely, and you will not even have the chance to reincarnate in the village.
"If you want to prove whether there are monsters in the dark night, it's either completely impossible or a bit useless." Mo Sheng said suddenly.
Qi Yuan nodded slightly, he also knew the method Mo Sheng said, the useless people Mo Sheng said were not other people, but outsiders.
As long as an outsider is trapped, so that he cannot return to the house at night, or prevent him from offering sacrifices for a month, and see if he will be swallowed by the monster in the night, he can naturally make a judgment.
But this method is as cruel as going to the Forest of Bones to find answers.
The lives of all outsiders are clearly marked with blood and blood!
Xia Zhiqiao didn't intervene. Although she hoped that outsiders would join forces and didn't want to see cannibalism, but as time went by, she finally realized that under such **** rules, her own wish was so weak. ridiculous.
In the face of life and death, people will become beasts, and anyone can be sacrificed except themselves!
After a brief silence, Xia Zhiqiao seemed to remember something, and suddenly said:
"You seem to have not sacrificed for twenty-four days. Are you going to verify the existence of the monster at night?"
Qi Yuan shrugged.
"You're overthinking. I'm going to hunt today, and then I'll go to Bloodbane Village to make a sacrifice. I hope the time will come quickly."
Xia Zhiqiao stopped talking, and went to Blood Disaster Village this time~lightnovelpub.net~ She is not worried about the villagers of Blood Disaster Village, but a little worried about the outsiders of Blood Disaster Village, if they are as worried as Shi Fan For the other outsiders, the three of them will go there this trip, maybe there will be a fierce battle.
The three of them rushed in the direction of the blood disaster village, but they didn't go directly into the village, but went deep into the dense forest and started looking for sacrifices.
Since sacrificing in Dragon Bone Village can slightly change the attitude of the villagers in Dragon Bone Village, it should be the same in Blood Calamity Village. Sacrifice is the best way to get closer to the villagers here. The head of the village heard some useful information.
Xia Zhiqiao chose Qi Yuan to go with her, and this time she chose to go hunting together. She also wanted to see what special skills or abilities Qi Yuan and Mo Sheng had that could find prey faster than herself.
With Xia Zhiqiao by his side, Qi Yuan did not release Seraph, but used Seraph's subtle sense of energy to find the sacrifice hidden in the forest.
The three of them searched around in the forest, but as expected, they didn't find any traces of insects and beasts, so they could only choose to go to Bloodbane Village before dark to avoid the monsters in the night.
