Chapter 0027 The Monster is Coming
The knife seemed to have stabbed into hard dead flesh and failed to penetrate, but it did slightly stop the monster's movement.
Not wanting to fight any longer, I ran along the wall.
He stumbled around in the dark, bumping into many things and getting many bruises on his body.
The monster's clattering crawling sound was right behind him, like a maggot on his tarsal bones that he couldn't get rid of.
In desperation, I grabbed a piece of wood and threw it hard to the side.
Dongdongdong! The wood block fell to the ground, and at the same time I slowed down my pace, tiptoed against the wall, and shrank into a corner.
The monster seemed to be heading in the direction of the block of wood.
I was able to catch my breath, my body ached, my clothes were covered with cobwebs, and my nose was filled with the smell of dust, but I didn't dare relax for a moment.
The multi-functional knife was extremely sharp, but it couldn't hurt the monster. This showed how tough its skin was. My hand holding the knife was already covered in cold sweat.
But I still don’t plan to use the exorcism talisman. We have only opened one coffin now. I don’t know what will come out of the remaining three coffins, especially the red one.
The only talisman should not be used unless it is absolutely necessary.
I don't know what this monster's weakness is or how to kill it.
As I was thinking hard, the monster's crawling sound came towards me again.
Discovered!
My heart tightened, and I swung my knife wildly in the darkness and groped forward.
After a few times, I found that no matter where I ran, the monsters could find me.
It's so dark in the coffin shop, how can the monster locate me?
Can you see at night?
odor?
Anyway, no matter which one it is, it shows that it has nothing to do with the light , so I simply turned on the flashlight on my phone to illuminate it, at least so that I could run more smoothly.
The faint light could only illuminate my surroundings. I was like a firefly in the dark. I didn't even bother to look back and had no idea what the monster looked like.
Although the monster was following me closely and was quite fast, I had to run as fast as I could to avoid being caught up.
Human physical strength is limited, I can't spend the whole night fighting monsters like this.
My brain was working rapidly, and I was thinking about how to escape while running, and suddenly I thought of a question.
Where is A Xiang?
She seemed to have known the habits of this monster for a long time and hid somewhere in advance, but I ran almost all over the coffin shop and never ran into her.
How did she avoid being chased by the monster?
Also, Wuming was nowhere to be seen. How could such a big man be eaten alive by a monster?
I broke out in a cold sweat on my back, and even my legs felt a little weak.
As soon as I slowed down, a cool breeze blew behind me, and I gritted my teeth and sped up.
It is impossible for a person to keep running at full speed all the time, and soon I was forced into a corner by the monster.
My legs were shaking, I was breathing heavily, and I put my hands in my jacket pockets.
Damn it!
Are we going to use our only talisman to exorcise evil spirits now?
The phone was pointed forward, and under the faint cold light, a strange shadow on all fours was crawling rapidly towards the dark front.
My whole body was tense, cold sweat ran down my chin, and every muscle in my body was tense.
Click, click.
Closer and closer.
When a distorted and blurry strange face appeared at the edge of the light, a faint fragrance came from beside me, and a cold and delicate hand covered my mouth and nose.
I was shocked and my hand moved away from my chest like a spring and reached for the multi-function knife on my waist.
"Don't breathe!" Ah Xiang's voice rang in my ears, soft and quick.
My hand stopped on Ah Xiang's arm. If she dared to do anything wrong, I would throw her to the monster without hesitation.
If the other party wants to harm me, should I be gentle with him?
The monster's face stopped outside the light, as if it had lost its direction. It turned its head to look around, then crawled to the other side.
From a distance, we could see that the monster seemed to have long, messy hair and a bulging belly.
With a click, the monster's deformed figure merged into the darkness, sometimes close and sometimes far away, never giving up the search for prey.
Ah Xiang's hands slowly let go of my mouth and nose.
My lungs felt like they were about to explode. I took a long breath, then held it again.
By this time, I had figured out that the way the monsters locate their prey is through their breathing.
Wiping the cold sweat from my forehead with my hand, I turned around and looked at Ah Xiang warily.
Why did she save me?
Under the cold light, her pretty face looked exceptionally pale, her eyes as black as if stained with ink, giving her a strange beauty.
Smiling at me, Ah Xiang squatted down and stared carefully in the direction of the monster.
It can be seen that she is actually very afraid of monsters, but she understands the habits of monsters, so she knows how to avoid them.
But the dense tooth marks on Wuming's body indicated that this was not the first time he was bitten. Didn't he know to hold his breath when the monster crawled out of the coffin?
Or were the teeth marks on his body caused by something else?
Full of doubts, I squatted down like Ah Xiang and took a breath only when I couldn't hold it anymore.
The monster searched the coffin shop for a long time, crawling and stopping, but still couldn't find its target. It seemed a little irritable and broke many old objects.
After wandering around aimlessly for a few times, the monster finally crawled back to the third coffin.
Silence returned to the coffin shop.
Ah Xiang was obviously relieved. She walked out from the corner and waved to me.
"If you don't want this old thing to crawl out again, come and help me cover the coffin."
