Chapter 208 Whoever we catch, it’s who
He moved forward again, and the balls moved back again.
After going back and forth like this five times, Xie Bian stopped, and seeing him stop, the balls also stopped.
The two sides were in a standoff, one not moving and the other not moving either.
Xie Bian was so angry that he almost laughed when he saw the group of balls huddled together.
Yang Ning also said that they were very brave and ferocious. They pounced on him one by one as if they wanted to tear him to pieces. In the end, General Gui ran fast and pulled him in.
So what is the situation now?
Are these balls afraid of themselves?
Why?
Could it be that my face is not only scary, but also eerie?
Thinking of this, Xie Bian made a vicious gesture towards the group of balls, and his whole yin-yang face became fierce and terrifying in an instant.
"Eh!" The balls shuddered in unison, then began to flee in all directions.
The speed at which they fled and their panicked appearance were like a flock of sheep invaded by a vicious wolf, which scared them so much that they ran away without caring about anything else.
"It seems that I am really a monster." Xie Bian looked at the frightened balls and began to think.
It is obviously impossible to let them come to me on their own initiative!
In that case, let’s take the initiative!
Xie Bian made up his mind and quickly scanned the group of balls. There were so many balls in this space that it was impossible to see the end of them. They were so densely packed that it was impossible to tell how many there were.
It is obviously not an easy task to choose the one that suits you at once.
Anyway, he can’t tell whether it’s good or bad, so let’s catch whoever we can!
Xie Bian decisively rushed towards the place where the balls gathered the most. After chasing for a few minutes, he finally caught the slowest ball with one hand.
There was a huge eye on the ball. When it saw Xie Bian coming towards it, its eyes were filled with fear, almost crying.
The moment Xie Bian's fingers touched it, his body was sucked into the eyeball.
The entire eyeball, and I don’t know where the eyelids came from, but when it closed, the eyeball turned into a pitch-black ball.
The pitch-black ball hovered in mid-air, motionless. Other balls came up and surrounded the pitch-black ball. Although they did not make any sound, one could feel the lively atmosphere from the crowded together balls.
They seemed to be discussing this unlucky guy, and also seemed to be glad that they were not caught.

That night
The dark clouds were like a thick curtain, the air was so heavy that breathing was difficult. There was no wind and the leaves had stopped swaying.
Lightning struck from the sky like a sharp sword, splitting the dark clouds in half. Thunder followed with a rumbling sound, and strong winds and heavy rain swept down.
"Wa wa wa wa wa..." A loud cry seemed to break the dullness of the rainy night.
A middle-aged woman stumbled out of the gorgeous house, holding something in her hands. She didn't even put on a straw raincoat and rushed into the heavy rain.
The woman carried the things in her arms and walked forward with difficulty in the heavy rain. After walking for an unknown amount of time, she reached a barren mountain and put the things in her hands into a low and dilapidated temple.
"My young master, don't blame me for being cruel. Blame it on the fact that you've grown into a monster."
"I hope this mountain god can wash away your sins in this life, and allow you to be reborn as a normal person in the next life." The woman clasped her hands together and bowed towards the dilapidated temple, then turned and walked into the rain.
"boom!"
Another bright white lightning struck, illuminating the dark night for a moment. The package placed in the ruined temple was opened, revealing a red and wrinkled little face. He was crying weakly with his mouth open.
At first glance, it looks like just a newborn baby, but upon closer inspection, one can see that where the baby's eyes should be, there is nothing on its face, only a thin slit in the center of its forehead.
Sure enough, the baby looked like a monster, just as the woman said.
"boom!"
Another bolt of lightning struck, and a pair of green eyes suddenly appeared in the dilapidated temple.
Six years later
A small figure wrapped in rags jumped down the mountain step by step. After he left, a group of furry animals appeared on the mountain. They seemed to be watching the small figure leave.
The small figure soon arrived at the small village at the foot of the mountain. He quietly came to a farmer's fence, hid behind a haystack, and imitated the sound of birds.
Two long tones and one short tone.
The farmer's wooden door was pushed open, and a little girl with two buns on her hair ran out.
"Big-eyed boy, is that you? Big-eyed boy." The little girl ran into the yard and called softly.
"Here, here." A small voice came from behind the haystack.
The little girl immediately ran out of the yard, turned to the haystack, and saw the big-eyed baby wrapped in rags.
"Hey, why did you take so long this time?" The little girl reached out to pull the big-eyed boy.
"Sister Hu, you've given birth to a little brother, and I have to stay at home to take care of him." The big-eyed kid explained hesitantly.
"Hey, I know this. I went to see my aunt when she gave birth to my little brother." The little girl acted like an adult and reached out to pat the big-eyed baby on the back.
"My cousin stayed at home to take care of my little brother and didn't have time to play with us."
"Come on, go on, Brother Gousheng and the others are waiting for us." The little girl pulled the big-eyed boy forward. "They found a shallow beach and said there are a lot of crabs and small fish in it."
The big-eyed boy was pulled by the little girl all the way to the river. They walked for more than ten minutes before they arrived at a remote river bend.
It was a shallow beach formed by the mud and sand brought about by the river water. Among the scattered stones of all sizes, four or five children were turning over the stones one by one with their trouser legs rolled up and carrying bamboo baskets.
"Brother Gousheng, we are here." The little girl raised her hands and waved happily towards the children.
"Hey, Sanya is here." The boy who looked the oldest among the children turned around, "Oh, Big Eyes is here too."
"Yes, Brother Gousheng." Big Eyes and San Ya came in front of the few people.
"Come on, there are plenty of crabs here. We'll roast them and eat them when the time comes." Gousheng handed an empty bamboo basket to the two of them.
"Okay, okay." San Ya kicked off her shoes, rolled up her trouser legs and stepped in. Then she found that Big Eyes didn't follow her, so she turned around and called him.
"Come on, don't you want to eat crabs?"
"Okay." The big-eyed boy wrapped the rag on his head tighter, then took off his shoes and followed.
"Wow, this is huge."
"Mine is bigger."
"Watch me."
A few children moved stones to touch crabs and couldn't help showing off the big crabs they caught.
For a moment, the children's laughter and joyful shouts scared away the fish in the river.
"Wow, there's a big black fish stuck in the stone." San Ya suddenly screamed, attracting the attention of the other children.
"Where? Where?"
"It's under that stone." San Ya pointed to a stone between the river and the shallows.
"It's a bit far and not easy to get there." When everyone saw it, they couldn't help but back off.
"It's quite far away. Let me catch it." San Ya climbed onto a big rock and walked towards that direction.
"Don't go, the water is deep over there." When Gousheng saw this, he hurried over to bring San Ya back.
"It's not deep. I can see the bottom of the river." San Ya turned around and replied, but at this moment, her foot slipped and she fell into the river.
“Ahhhhh…”
