Chapter 96 Death Crow Forest, Bloody Scarecrow(2/3)
After all, even Du Xin herself knows that if she wants to get married in the future, she will have to find honest people who are stupider and more cowardly to take over. Otherwise, if her pre-marital life comes out, she will most likely be domestically abused by her husband.
Damn it!
If I had known that I would enter the Shenxu, I would have been a good girl before, so that my worth would be high.
"No one is guarding this place, can't you run away?"
Hua Yueyu looked around and saw no soldiers.
"You can't run, but you can try!"
Wang Mingfu sneered.
"Can you please speak clearly?"
Xia Hongyao was unhappy with Wang Mingfu's attitude.
Wang Mingfu actually didn't want to say whether these people would care about his business? But he thought that if they couldn't guard this meat forest, the dead eunuch might get angry at him, so he explained.
"Some of our group of people ran away, but when the crow attacked, it held a few of the people who had run away in its mouth, and dropped them from the air, smashing them into meat patties, and a few others were covered in armor.
The soldiers caught them, and in front of us, they disemboweled those unfortunate ghosts, skinned them and cramped their muscles, made scarecrows, hung them on wooden frames and stuck them in the woods."
Wang Mingfu now shudders when he thinks of those two scenes.
Everyone looked at each other.
Wang Mingfu took out his watch from his pocket. Every time the second hand moved forward, it represented a step closer to death.
"In about ten minutes, the crow is coming, so you can take care of yourself."
Wang Mingfu trotted back, he still wanted to direct the battle.
Everyone looked at Lin Baici, waiting for him to give orders.
"Spread out and check the surrounding environment. If you find anything, report it immediately!"
After Lin Baici finished speaking, when he saw Du Xin and Gu Rongjie trying to come over again, he immediately stopped them: "You go to the left, Lu Yingxi, take a few people to the front."
"Zhou Ya, let's go!"
Du Xin pulled Zhou Ya: "Don't ask for trouble, Lin Shen will definitely not take care of you!"
Lin Baici walked to the right. The game carcasses hanging on the trees cast shadows, making the ground mottled, like scars.
"No body!"
Xia Hongyao reasoned: "Based on Mr. Wang's embarrassing situation, there are probably no dead people, so where did the bodies go?"
"Forest God! Forest God!"
Gu Rongjie suddenly shouted, her voice anxious and panicked.
Lin Baici immediately sprinted away, Xia Hongyao followed easily, but Hua Yueyu was thrown away directly. With her physique, she couldn't keep up with the two of them.
"Lin Shen, look!"
Gu Rongjie saw Lin Baici and reported immediately.
In front of everyone, in a woodland more than 20 meters away, there are crosses made of wood, about three meters high.
On these crosses, there is a naked corpse with one-foot-long wooden wedges nailed to the wrists and ankles.
"Didn't you ask where the body is?"
Lin Baici rubbed his nose: "That's not it!"
Others heard Gu Rongjie's shout and ran over. When they saw this scene, they froze.
"Isn't this too cruel?"
Some girls were so scared that they cried because they thought they might end up like this.
"That eunuch is simply a cruel official. He won't inflict torture like pigs and lingchi again later, right?"
Gu Rongjie suddenly felt that car breakage was not unacceptable. At least if she received this punishment, she would die quickly, unlike the kind of torture she was facing.
"It turns out that the scarecrow does not mean to be made of straw, but of a real person."
Zhou Ya's mouth felt bitter. She thought she could be a scarecrow and had a chance to show off, but she didn't expect that the scarecrow meant this.
"This was not done by that dead eunuch!"
Lin Baici looked solemnly and walked towards the scarecrows.
"What?"
Everyone was stunned.
"If it's not it, then who is it?"
Guo Zheng thought about it: "Could it be a monster? But isn't the monster a crow? Or is the crow Wang Mingfu mentioned not the kind of bird we have seen, but a kind of 'crow man'?"
Everyone looked at Lin Baici, waiting for his answer. Gu Rongjie had seen the darkness of society and the horror of human nature, and was the first to react.
"This couldn't have been done by Mr. Wang...er, Wang Mingfu and the others, right?"
Gu Rongjie was so frightened that she had goosebumps all over her body.
Everyone was also shocked by Gu Rongjie's reasoning.
"That Mr. Wang said that those who escaped would be disemboweled, skinned and cramped, but the dozen or so people here were not skinned!"
Lin Baici inspected the body.
Their bodies were in tatters, with not a single piece of good skin on them. They looked like they had been pecked by sharp beaks, and were covered in blood.
Every corpse had its eyeballs eaten away, leaving only two holes, and most of its belly was torn apart, like a buffet eaten by a flock of birds, scattered everywhere.
The heads of these corpses were all pecked open, and inside was an empty skull. It looked like the brains should have been eaten.
"Probably not. How can a person be so bad?"
After Zhou Ya finished speaking, she suddenly remembered that Guo Zai had killed someone in the underground wine cellar and immediately shut up.
"Why did they do that?"
Xia Hongyao blurted out.
"To use them to attract crows and protect the game in the trees."
Lin Baici was determined.
"These corpses have many wounds on them. They should have been injured in the fight with crows. Because their combat effectiveness was reduced and they were useless, they were made into scarecrows!"
There was something even more cruel, which Lin Baici didn't say.
Most of these corpses were women. They were short and thin. They looked weak and had no fighting ability. Naturally, they were among the first to be sacrificed.
[This is how nature is, survival of the fittest. In the absence of legal and moral constraints, individual strength and intelligence become the key forces that determine status! 】
[That Mr. Wang was decisive in killing and a hero. Although cruel, he did survive and integrated a team under his command. 】
The actual situation is that when the crows attack, everyone is in a panic and cannot protect the game. They can only watch the crows eat the meat.
Until Wang Mingfu keenly discovered that after someone was pecked by crows because of attacking them, crows would swarm in and attack the bleeding person.
Wang Mingfu immediately asked everyone to bleed, trying to lure the crows away, but it was useless. Then he decisively revised the plan, found a seriously injured person, smeared his body with blood, and made a scarecrow.
Then he succeeded, and all the crows nearby were attracted.
After several crow attacks, Wang Mingfu used this tactic to save most of the game, but many people died as well.
Wang Mingfu took advantage of the time when the chief chamberlain came to get the meat and warned him that there were too few people and he would not be able to protect the game.
So people like Lin Baici who didn't need to brew medicinal wine for the time being were brought over.
Wang Mingfu didn't tell Lin Baici and the others the truth because he wanted them to see the terror of those crow monsters and experience the despair of being killed if they lost their game. Otherwise, if he asked them to vote for the 'scarecrow', they would definitely not do it.
Because there are too many hypocritical and cowardly people in this world.
But Wang Mingfu didn't expect that Lin Baici could deduce their tactics just by seeing those scarecrows.
"Xiao Linzi's reasoning must be correct!"
Xia Hongyao was very confident in Lin Baici's IQ: "That Wang Mingfu is really bad!"
"Don't worry about whether he is broken or not, what should we do?"
Guo Zheng glanced at Lin Baici, and then his eyes wandered over Gu Rongjie and others.
According to his idea, since Lin Baici found the correct tactic to pass the level so quickly, he would naturally use it. The question is who to choose as the scarecrow?
Speaking of which, Lin Baici is really strong. If you follow him, you will definitely be able to get out of this sacred ruins. The only trouble is that he is not ruthless enough and always hesitates to kill a lot of people.
Among the people at the scene, those with slow thinking were still worrying, or those with fast thinking had already hid with Lin Baici.
Because Guo Zheng has never concealed his cruelty, some people can tell that this guy is going to be a scarecrow.
No one wants to be the unlucky guy.
"Lin Shen, stop pretending to be stupid and quickly choose a scarecrow!"
Guo Zheng urged, his words directly sent chills down everyone's spines and numb scalps.
