Chapter 50: Bow-Shaped God's Descent (VIII)
"I harmed Xiaoxiao, I harmed Xiaoxiao!"
Amidst the dull and painful sobs, Yang Shu kept repeating these two sentences.
Xie Mian did not disturb Yang Shu, but put away the gun that was pointing at Yang Shu's head.
"Squeak... Squeak..."
"Squeak... Squeak..."
E Shifang opened the door a tiny gap, put his eyes close to the gap and looked out.
After watching for a few seconds, it gently flapped its wings, signaling Xie Mian to come over.
Xie Mian walked over, gently brushed past E Shifang's head, bent down slightly, and put his eyes close to the crack in the door -
Through the narrow crack in the door, you can see rows and rows of densely packed people in white robes.
There were about five or six hundred people in white robes, and they knelt on the ground in an orderly manner.
Like insects, they crawled into room 405 one after another in an almost wriggling posture.
The faces of these white-robed men were stretched to be unusually long and sharp, as if their faces were painted with a layer of white paint, their eyes were hollow, and their faces were expressionless.
Xie Mian saw Yang Shu’s sister Yang Xiaoxiao among them.
"Haha!" They seemed to be participating in some kind of ceremony.
After the last person in white robe entered the room, E Shifang whispered.
"The rooms here should all be the same size, right?"
Xie Mian looked back and saw that they were being pulled into this room. The layout of this room was exactly the same as their original room, and the area was also the same size.
"Crack, crack, crack." Judging from the density of doors and windows, the rooms here are all the same size.
"Since the rooms are the same size..." Xie Mian walked to a table in the room. On the table was a teapot identical to the one in Room 404.
"How could a room of only 30 square meters like this possibly accommodate 500 to 600 people at the same time?"
Both of them were confused.
At this time, Yang Shu had stopped crying, wiped his face and stood up from the ground.
The once tall body seemed to have suffered a blow and was hunched over weakly.
"Today is the day when the Insect God is born. They are welcoming the birth of the Insect God."
Yang Shu’s words made Xie Mian even more confused: “The birth of the Insect God?” If they were welcoming the birth of the Insect God, then what was the monster that he and E Shifang had just seen in the basement?
"Yes, after you left, Father became very angry. He..."
From Yang Shu's brief words, Xie Mian understood that after he and E Shifang escaped, his father gathered everyone to the church, gave each of them eleven pills, and told them that the Insect God would come early, and asked them to eat all the pills to welcome the Insect God's arrival.
When Yang Shu said this, his face twisted in pain:
"After taking eleven pills, Xiaoxiao suddenly became a different person. She no longer recognized me, nor did she remember me. She was like a walking corpse, only obeying her father's orders."
When talking about "the walking dead", the muscles on Yang Shu's face suddenly contracted, his eyes turned red, and his teeth made a clattering sound.
"No, not zombies, but bugs. My sister turned into a bug!"
Yang Shu seemed to be afraid to recall the scene at that time. He suddenly closed his eyes and continued after a few seconds:
"Her head kept growing longer, her hands and body stuck together, her legs also strangely stuck together, and then her legs turned into a white tail...
Her head also disappeared, vanished, and her head turned into the shape of a bug, white and white, and she was moving, she was lying on the ground and moving..."
"Okay, stop talking."
Xie Mian patted Yang Shu's shoulder, signaling Yang Shu not to continue talking. He was afraid that Yang Shu would go crazy if he continued talking.
Yang Shu opened his mouth but no sound came out, his body trembling, as if he was trying hard to pull himself out of a terrifying thing.
"I'm sorry Xiaoxiao, I shouldn't have given her the white pill, I shouldn't have brought her here..."
Xie Mian didn't say anything. Yang Xiaoxiao's heart disease was already very serious at the time, and she would have died on the spot if she hadn't taken the pills. The pills prolonged her life, but also pushed her into another abyss.
If she didn't take the pill, she would die on the spot, but she would die as a human being. After taking the pill, she survived, but she was no longer herself.
In addition, Xie Mian also extracted a key piece of information from Yang Shu's words, that is, the birth of the "Insect God" was advanced.
The man in white robe used to take three pills a day, one pill with each meal; now he just takes one pill directly, which means that the birth time of the so-called "Insect God" is four days earlier.
Why in advance? Is it to prevent their interference?
Seeing that Xie Mian seemed to be thinking about something, E Shifang moved his long neck and said:
"Haha, haha." There is no free lunch in the world, so how did you escape?
Compared to those touching stories about humans turning into insects, insects turning into humans, and brotherly love stories, E Shifang cares more about Xie Mian's safety.
When everyone else took the pill and turned into insects, why didn't you, Yang Shu, take the pill? Why didn't you turn into an insect?
Also, how did you escape from the church? And how did you know we were here?
Yang Shu didn't understand E Shifang's quacking, but what E Shifang said was exactly what Xie Mian wanted to ask. Xie Mian translated E Shifang's words and asked Yang Shu the same question again.
"After they turned into insects, they all turned back into humans. I escaped when they weren't paying attention."
"As for meeting you, I didn't know I'd run into you here. I was hiding behind the door when I saw you coming, so I pulled you in.
Afraid that Xie Mian didn't believe him, Yang Shu gestured while talking, looking both flustered and nervous.
Xie Mian did not disbelieve Yang Shu's words. What he suspected now was that he and E Shifang had fallen into a trap, a trap set for them by their father.
With Father's power, it is impossible for him to let Poplar escape, unless Father did it on purpose, deliberately letting Poplar escape.
But why did the father let Yangshu escape?
Xie Mian suspected that the reason was him and E Shifang, and his father deliberately let Yang Shu escape and then lure them out.
Lure them out... and bring forward the birth of the "Insect God"...
"Has the Father said anything to you? About me?"
"What?" Yang Shu scratched his head and thought carefully, "Yes, he did. He said you would definitely come back!"
In fact, his father said something else. Yang Shu hesitated and looked at Xie Mian's expression, not knowing whether to say it or not. He was honest, not stupid, and he felt that after saying this, Xie Mian would definitely be furious.
"Um?"
Xie Mian saw that Yang Shu had more to say, so he raised his eyelids and motioned Yang Shu to continue.
"Father, Father said to skin the goose, remove its tendons, chop it into a paste, and make dumplings!"
"Oh, making dumplings? He seems quite leisurely. Let's see who will become the dumpling filling!"
Xie Mian played with the pistol in his hand, curled the corners of his lips, and his eyes were cold.
"Hahaha!" This father is quite thoughtful. He has calculated that our insects cannot recover and will definitely come back.
I wasn't angry at all about my father wanting to make dumplings out of me. No one in this world who could make dumplings out of me, Goose Shifang, had yet to be born.
You want to eat goose dumplings, but don’t you consider whether you have the luck to do so?
405 The woman's wails grew fainter and fainter.
Xie Mian gently opened the door, lowered his body, and walked towards the window of Room 405.
He wanted to see what the so-called welcoming of the insect god was all about.
