“Here?”
Chen Yu Lou observed the forest scene at night.
He felt an inexplicable familiarity with this place.
Suddenly, he remembered that the background of the ancient painting hanging on the beam of the house was this very place.
But that ancient painting was of a deity enshrined in the temple.
Why then did such a place exist in reality?
And why was there a graveyard here?
Could it be that the old woman in the painting was a real person?
There were many strange things and strange people in the deep mountains and ancient tribes.
Perhaps this old woman in white had some skills.
She must have been worshipped as a deity by later generations.
And after her death, she was probably buried here.
Chen Yu Lou's thoughts raced.
But he didn't care.
He took another look.
He saw that the spotted cat had stopped crying under the broken stele.
It wasn't that the spotted cat was unafraid.
On the contrary, it was trembling all over, but it seemed unable to move.
It lay prostrate in the puddle of water beside it, drinking greedily.
It drank until its belly was round and round, as if it were about to burst.
When it couldn't drink anymore, it pressed its belly with its own weight and spit out all the water it had swallowed.
It did this repeatedly.
Until it vomited blood.
Then it rolled over, its belly facing up, but it couldn't move at all.
Its four limbs were facing the sky, as if they were stiff and unable to move.
And on the broken stele.
A small cat was staring at the spotted cat.
Its facial expression was extremely eerie.
It was as if it was a human face that could make such an expression.
Chen Yu Lou was puzzled.
The spotted cat must have been tricked by this little cat.
But he didn't know what method it used.
It had made the spotted cat, which had some Daoist skills, drink water desperately.
Could it be that it wanted to wash the arsenic poison in its belly, so it would be easier to eat?
But he knew that although the female corpse had been poisoned because of the standing stiff custom.
Her body was poisoned, but her face was not.
The spotted cat had only eaten some of the female corpse's facial skin.
It shouldn't have been poisoned.
This situation was truly eerie.
Even Chen Yu Lou, who was experienced, had never seen anything like it.
But there were many strange things in this mountain.
This little cat's act was also considered hunting food.
It wasn't so hard to imagine.
He glanced over and saw that beside the spotted cat.
The female corpse's ear was lying on the ground.
It must have been so busy running for its life.
The spotted cat was also injured, and it didn't have time to eat it.
That was good.
Later, he would take it back.
It would at least allow the Rat Second Aunt to have a complete body.
But...
Chen Yu Lou felt something was wrong.
It was too quiet.
Why didn't he hear Zhang Chen's movements?
He glanced back.
He was startled.
Behind him was empty, where was Zhang Chen's shadow?
“What happened to him?”
Chen Yu Lou's heart stirred.
This kid's light skills were not to be mentioned.
Such a short distance, he wouldn't have been able to keep up.
This forest, though complex.
But his light skills were even better than his own.
And...
He was able to follow him closely in the dark and slippery conditions.
Perhaps his eyesight was not inferior to his own.
But why couldn't he keep up?
Could it be that something terrible happened to him?
Chen Yu Lou already felt that this place was full of eerie atmosphere, with clouds and mist swallowing everything.
Now that he saw Zhang Chen was gone.
He naturally suspected that there was something unclean in this old forest.
He couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Damn it."
This guy was a good hand.
There was no doubt about that.
But in this deep mountain wilderness, underground tombs, there were all sorts of unbelievable things.
Beyond human strength.
If he really ran into something unclean.
Don't let him fall here.
That would be too bad.
However, although he was worried.
He didn't move rashly.
Firstly, the little cat's behavior was too strange.
If he made any noise, he might end up in trouble.
Secondly, Zhang brothers disappeared as soon as they arrived.
This made him even more certain that there was something strange about this forest.
He couldn't move rashly.
He could only wait for the little cat to finish its business.
So that he could pick up the female corpse's ear and leave this place.
When he got back, he would gather his men and come back to rescue him.
But...
How could he explain to Hong Girl?
His thoughts flew.
On a large tree dozens of meters behind him.
Zhang Chen used the Purple Extreme Demon Eye.
Entry level.
Even if he was far away.
He could still see everything clearly.
He naturally saw the old cat drinking water and the small cat watching.
“There are many spirits in this forest, it seems it's not a random fabrication, this little cat is not very old, but it's like a human, there is cunning and strangeness in its eyes, compared to it, the big rat is harmless!”
Zhang Chen thought to himself.
He looked at Chen Yu Lou again.
He was probing around.
He must have noticed that he wasn't following.
He didn't know what was going on in his mind.
But he was indeed an old hand.
He didn't see him, and he didn't act rashly.
As for this place...
Zhang Chen was even more curious.
This place was exactly the same as the background in the ancient painting.
The old woman in white was in the painting.
She must have been a real person.
This place was also full of graves.
Plus, the old cat could use "illusion".
Could it be that this place is also a Feng Shui treasure land?
If so, wouldn't he be able to cultivate again?
He made up his mind.
Once he killed the old cat.
He would definitely investigate this place.
Only...
He had to figure out a way to avoid them.
Just then.
He saw the little cat shaking its head.
It stood up from the broken stele.
Like a human, it stood upright on its hind legs.
It walked lightly to the old cat.
First, it licked away its fur.
Then it used its claws to rub the old cat's hairless belly repeatedly.
In a moment, it had cut open the old cat's belly.
The washed intestines, like a delicious meal.
Were all pulled out of its belly by the little cat.
But it didn't eat it.
Instead, it opened its mouth and bit the old cat's neck.
To drink the cat's blood.
The old cat couldn't move.
But it was still making a whimpering sound.
It was truly miserable.
This scene was strangely eerie.
Its belly was cut open.
But it could only whimper, and its body couldn't resist, it was as if it had opened its belly and let the other party enjoy itself.
When it had drunk its fill of cat blood.
The spotted cat was already dead.
The little cat took the old cat's intestines and turned to go behind the broken stele.
Waiting for the little cat to disappear.
Chen Yu Lou leaped out of his hiding place.
He went to the old cat's corpse.
He picked up the Rat Second Aunt's ear.
He sighed in relief, at least he had succeeded.
Otherwise, his boast would have become a joke.
“I'd better leave as soon as possible, this place is ominous, the Yellow Demon doesn't know what kind of magic and sorcery it knows, don't get caught!”
Chen Yu Lou made up his mind and turned to leave.
But at that moment.
He suddenly heard the sound of meat being chewed behind the broken stele.
He instinctively looked up.
But with just this glance.
He suddenly felt his muscles stiffen.
His eyes seemed to be drawn to it, unable to move an inch.
He saw that at the broken stele, there was an old woman, thin as a skeleton, dressed in white, riding a snow-white donkey, with a sinister expression, staring at him!
