The illustrated guide says that Big Meow Meow will appear in dark and narrow places and it doesn't like light.
Out of caution, Chen Xi brought two boxes of matches with him before leaving the house: one for Lily and one for himself.
Now is the time to use matches.
He fumbled for the matchbox and was about to light a match when the chick, which he was holding in one hand, suddenly pecked the back of his hand a few times.
Chen Xi looked down and saw the chicken shaking its head vigorously and pointing its beak at the dog hole in the distance.
Looking at the little chicken with a cramped neck, and then at the dog hole that could only accommodate a child, Chen Xi's heart sank.
A large meowing monster that makes cat sounds and only appears in dark and narrow spaces.
There are many animals in the backyard, which is quite large and not densely populated with buildings.
Does not meet the 'narrow' requirement.
There was moonlight in the sky, enough light for people to see the small animals around.
Does not meet the 'no light' requirement.
So now there are only two possibilities left.
First, there are two monsters that can meow in the orphanage.
It is very delicate and ceremonial, and has strict requirements on the environment in which it appears.
The other one didn't.
Second, what they encountered was the Big Meow, but it was out looking for food in a group.
There were two monsters in the backyard at this time. The extra monster was creating a dark and narrow environment for Big Meow Meow.
"There are no cats in the orphanage. If you hear a cat meow, don't respond."
They could only determine from the rules given by the nun that "responding to a cat's meow" would trigger a meow attack. They had no way of knowing what action would trigger another monster's attack.
It could be making a sound, lighting a match, or standing still for a long time.
Anything is possible, so Chick tells him not to act rashly.
Time passed minute by minute, and darkness gradually enveloped all the animals that made any noise.
Those chickens, ducks, geese and dogs disappeared into the darkness and were never seen again.
Yu Tong looked around for a while and suddenly found that the light was not getting dimmer little by little.
It was a strange feeling, as if there was a dark cloud hanging over their heads.
Wherever the clouds go, the light will dim.
Yu Tong looked up.
Through the layers of branches, he saw a face in the sky.
A huge woman's face that almost occupied his entire vision.
The face was deeply sunken, with no facial features on it, only a constantly undulating membrane and the bloody red flesh inside.
The system was eating dinner. It couldn't stand such a bizarre scene and ran back to the bedroom with the bowl of food.
Yu Tong suppressed his nausea and continued to observe with his eyes narrowed.
The woman had her hair loose, her long black hair hanging in the air, crisscrossing among the trees like a spider web.
The disappeared chickens and ducks were tightly entangled by black hair.
A small creature with flashing red eyes was moving through the hair, meowing and pouncing from time to time, biting and nibbling at the animals trapped in the hair.
As if noticing Yu Tong's gaze, the woman's face began to move slowly, approaching the direction where the two of them were.
Chen Xi also vaguely sensed something was wrong. Just as he was about to look up, the little yellow chicken in his hand suddenly jumped out.
He flapped his wings as he rushed into the orphanage, whispering to Chen Xi, "There's an even more ferocious monster in the sky. She has no eyes, only eardrums. I'll make a noise to lure her away. Get out now! I'll be there soon!"
Chen Xi's eyes widened and his breathing became uncontrollably rapid.
Seeing that the darkness on the ground was about to catch up with the chicken, Chen Xi pursed his lips and gripped the dagger tightly, ready to rush over to duel with the monster.
He had just taken a step when his waist suddenly tightened. Something grabbed his waist from behind, blocked his mouth, and dragged him out.
Chen Xi turned his head and saw that it was Lily's teddy bear.
Just now he had secretly glanced up and saw the huge woman's face.
His sacred chicken was very powerful, but it was only less than two days old. How could it possibly be a match for that huge monster?
When they were attacked by the orc army, his mother also said that she would catch up with him and his father soon.
But Chen Xi waited at the agreed place for three days, only to receive the news of his mother's death.
On the way to escape, they met an old lady with rabbit ears who kindly adopted them.
When the army caught up with them, Grandma Rabbit Ears said she would help them trick the soldiers away and let them hide in a cave, and they would eat baked carrot cakes together at night.
He huddled in his father's arms until dark, but Grandma Rabbit never came back.
The phrase Chen Xi hates the most is "Wait for me to come back."
He struggled desperately in the teddy bear's arms, but couldn't get free.
The little bear warrior ran to the dog hole and forced a piece of dry bread into Chen Xi's mouth. He pushed his butt and forced him into the hole.
Little Lily, who was waiting outside, grabbed Chen Xi's hands and pulled him out.
Chen Xi didn’t eat enough and had little strength, and he was also running a low fever.
After being stubborn for less than a minute, he was taken out by the man and the bear.
The little bear warrior went back to check the situation, and Lily blocked the entrance of the cave to prevent Chen Xi from passing through.
The boy, who was always calm and composed, now fell to the ground with a pale face, his body shaking constantly.
Looking at the fast-flowing, icy river not far away, Lily thought he was too cold, so she took off her coat and handed it to him.
Chen Xi took a few deep breaths, took the coat and whispered thanks.
Lily tilted her head and stared at him, "You're breathing so loudly, oh, I get it, you're not cold, you're scared!"
"Don't be afraid, dear child. Warrior Bear and Warrior Chicken will protect us."
Chen Xi looked at her with red eyes, "Aren't you worried that the little bear warrior will be killed by the monster?"
"The Bear Warrior is the most powerful, no one can match him!"
"What if, what if it can't defeat the monster and can't come back, what will you do?"
