Chapter 39

Zhou Yunxing and Shangguan Yue were groping in the dark night. When they got to the woods, the cats got up. There were so many mosquitoes at this time that they couldn't stand up and swat them vigorously, which was very uncomfortable for the two of them.

But I have to say that having a martial arts expert next to me made me less afraid during this night of terrible experiences.

The two of them were having such a difficult time until late at night, and Shangguan Yue was almost sleepy.

There are more stars tonight than last night, and you can see them relatively clearly. In the blink of an eye, there are several shadows floating far and near, which are a few big lumps that cannot be seen clearly.

It stopped in the distance, and after a while the shadows actually dispersed.

Zhou Yunxing only frowned while Shangguan Yue also watched, stroking the knife on the side of his upper body, waiting for an opportunity to move.

The two of them held their breaths and waited for the shadow to arrive, wanting to see if it was just pretending to be a ghost or if it was a real ghost.

It was still the same as last night. The four or five shadows that walked up to them were all floating without legs. Only a rickety old lady was walking. The two of them thought of the silkworms they saw in the sky facing the floating figures during the day. Expressing doubts, when he walked up to him, Shangguan Yue swooped out without even a few shadows reacting.

If an ordinary person saw this, let alone taking a closer look, they would faint as soon as they walked up to him. Zhou Yunxing followed closely, his eyes sweeping over the hunched old man, who was Mrs. Xu.

Zhou Yunxing looked under the hanging shadow and found that it indeed had no legs.

Mrs. Xu was the first to react, flying away quickly with her legless figure in a twisted posture, which was extremely horrifying.

Shangguan Yue flew forward and slashed. There was a "clang" sound, and one of the black shadows landed gracefully. Mrs. Xu stretched out her sharp claws to scratch Shangguan Yue who was in the way.

Zhou Yunxing hit Mrs. Xu's face with a stone, and there was a real collision sound. At that moment, the two of them were more sure that it was someone pretending to be a ghost.

Old Mrs. Xu was also shocked and hurt. Shangguan Yue took the opportunity to kick the person away. Old Mrs. Xu was hit by a tree and couldn't get up for a long time. Several floating shadows also fell to the ground. Zhou Yunxing stepped forward to check and turned over a small shadow. , I saw a pair of watery eyes reflected on the skull-like face.

Zhou Yunxing unwrapped the cloth bag and took a look, and his hair stood on end.

Inside the cloth bag was a newborn child. He was tied up hand and foot with a rope. His little body was covered with blue and red marks of being beaten. His mouth was stuffed with cloth strips. He couldn't even whimper. Unlock the remaining three, all of which are exactly the same.

Shangguan Yue stepped forward angrily and hit Old Mrs. Xu when she mentioned it. During the beating, she found that Old Mrs. Xu could straighten up.

Zhou Yunxing and Shangguan Yue untied the ropes from the four children, covered their mouths with their hands and feet, and dragged them away. Each of the four children held two in their arms and returned to the city at night.
