Chapter 464 These people are probably...
Little Su Bao seemed to sense something and turned to look at the men and women.
For a moment, she seemed to hear a child crying.
Little Su Bao thought she had misheard, but upon closer inspection, she saw faint gray shadows that seemed to flash by.
The little dumpling's eyes widened instantly.
"I'm not afraid!"
Wang Mingtian's voice slowly reached Xiao Su Bao's ears. The little girl turned her head to look, only to find that Wang Mingtian had not stopped chanting the incantation.
The little girl clenched her fists.
At this moment, Tang Bugui and Madam Qian noticed Xiao Subao's unusual behavior. Madam Qian gently patted Xiao Subao's back: "Don't be afraid, it's alright!"
Tang Bugui's face darkened as he glared at the people not far away.
"Why do you get to enjoy so much good food while we go hungry...?"
A sharp female voice rang out; she was like a skeleton, and one could vaguely see her bulging, somewhat strange eyes.
Little Su Bao saw that her body was covered in black, indicating she was burdened by karmic obstacles, and she could also faintly smell an extremely strong stench.
She seemed to sense Xiao Su Bao's gaze, and the woman suddenly looked at Xiao Su Bao, drool dripping down her face.
"It smells so good, I'm so hungry..." She seemed to be bewitched by something and rushed towards Xiao Su Bao without hesitation.
Just then, Xiao Mobao appeared out of nowhere, dressed in a black outfit.
Despite his young age, he exudes an inexplicable air of heroism.
Almost at the same time, the woman's gaze fell on Xiao Mobao. As if sensing some danger, she actually took two steps back.
However, there was a faint sense of unrest among the refugees, and low growls could be heard intermittently.
Tang Bugui frowned, and before he could speak, he heard an old voice.
General Qi strode in, his face extremely gloomy.
General Qi originally didn't want to get involved in what was happening here, but at this moment he realized something was wrong.
"These people are probably... cannibals!"
General Qi's voice wasn't loud, just enough for Tang Bugui and the others to hear.
Tang Bugui looked over immediately and saw that General Qi's face had become extremely ugly.
He never imagined he would witness this scene in his lifetime.
"We can't let them leave. We need to kill those cannibals quickly, otherwise..."
General Qi's face darkened as he recalled what he had witnessed thirty years ago.
Cannibalism is forbidden by the laws of nature.
Those who eat people will suffer divine retribution and become neither human nor ghost!
Although there have been natural disasters in various places this year, the treasury of the Great Shang Kingdom was still quite full before, and neither the emperor nor the empress was the kind of person who would abandon the people.
Logically speaking, there shouldn't be so many displaced people.
"What else could happen? Can't you just stop telling me half and leaving the other half? What's going on?" Madam Qian hugged Xiao Su Bao tightly, her eyes filled with worry.
General Qi didn't say much, but the young Taoist priest Song Yun appeared out of nowhere.
He glanced around and saw that no one else was paying attention to them, and the refugees were too afraid to approach because of their strange condition, so he spoke up.
“These people will become like zombies, only eating human flesh and blood, and this disease is also contagious…” Song Yun said, shaking his head slightly, a helpless expression on his handsome face.
Ms. Qian had not heard of this matter and immediately became nervous.
She turned to look at General Qi, who nodded solemnly.
Tang Bugui was the same, and although Wang Mingtian and the others didn't say anything, their expressions weren't good.
Just then, a guard ran over quickly.
"General, there are about three hundred refugees outside!"
The guard's face was not good. Thinking of the scene just now, even he felt nauseous and his stomach was churning.
"Furthermore, when I went to check the numbers, they seemed to have spotted me. Some of them had bloodshot eyes, ate raw meat, and had hideous faces, like... demons!"
Ms. Qian was horrified, but she quickly calmed herself down.
She turned to the young Taoist priest and asked, "Do they have any nemesis?"
Song Yun glanced back at his master and the others, and finally said with a hint of helplessness, "No, these kinds of people can only be killed, and their flesh and blood must be burned!"
Before anyone else could ask, he continued, "My master and Mr. Wang can't move right now. We'd better finish them off before dawn!"
“If it gets light, they will temporarily become like normal people. Killing them at this time would be an act of murder, which is not good!”
General Qi nodded; his opinion was also to kill them quickly, otherwise, once these people recovered...
General Qi clenched his fists slightly, his eyes filled with intense pain.
"Take the child and go back first. Leave this to us!" General Qi glanced at Madam Qian, paused, and then spoke earnestly.
Madam Qian glanced at General Qi, but shook her head.
"Mo Bao, take Su Bao back!"
Qian handed Xiao Su Bao to Mo Bao, but took the cleaver from Mo Bao's hand.
"Auntie!" Mo Bao's expression changed slightly, and he instinctively reached out to snatch the cleaver back.
However, the Qian family did not give Mo Bao a chance at all.
Little Su Bao realized what was happening. The little dumpling looked up at Qian Shi, wanting to say something, but Qian Shi didn't give them a chance at all.
"Go back, or I'll abandon you!"
Mo Bao's expression changed slightly. He gritted his teeth, picked up Xiao Su Bao, and ran away.
Mrs. Qian breathed a slight sigh of relief as she watched them leave.
Her eyes instantly sharpened.
General Qi, standing to the side, glanced at his mother-in-law and thought she was someone he thought highly of.
Actually, he really liked Tangjia Village. Everyone there was very nice, and regardless of whether there was any danger, everyone would get up and train every day.
It's no exaggeration to say that anyone here, young or old, could be drafted into the army and easily become a squad leader.
"Father-in-law, if anything happens to me, please keep an eye on my third son!"
Madam Qian looked at General Qi with a determined gaze.
General Qi was taken aback, but then laughed. This Qian family's thoughts were quite interesting.
But of course he wouldn't refuse!
Tang Bugui frowned for a moment when he saw Xiao Su Bao being carried away by Xiao Mo Bao, but he quickly recovered.
He took a red-tasseled spear from a guard standing nearby.
The moment he got his hands on the weapon, his entire demeanor changed.
"Ling Buqi!"
Tang Bugui called out to Ling Buqi.
“Here!” Ling Buqi stepped forward, his eyes filled with unwavering determination.
Not far away, Su Ruanruan and Qi Meng exchanged a glance, their hearts filled with complex emotions.
"Your man is about to get into a fight!" Qi Meng said, tilting her head as she looked at Su Ruanruan.
Su Ruanruan raised an eyebrow, a blush creeping across her ears.
In an instant, Su Ruanruan said, "You talk as if your father, your mother-in-law, and your future husband weren't even there!"
Qi Meng chuckled and put her arm around Su Ruanruan's shoulder!
"Hehe, you're right!" Qi Meng blinked and said to Su Ruanruan with a smile.
Su Ruanruan paused, but didn't say anything more.
"Alright, you two don't need to worry. The people in our village aren't that weak!"
Hearing the conversation between the two little girls, Da Ya Niang smiled brightly and said...
The two girls exchanged a glance, their cheeks flushing slightly.
Just then, some unexpected things happened ahead.
The cuckoo was suddenly grabbed.
She tried to help her father untie the ropes binding him, but the ropes were tied too tightly.
Before she could react, her wrist was grabbed.
"Let me go! Big Tiger, Big Tiger, come quickly and save our dad!"
Sun Dahu gripped a hoe in his hand, his face extremely gloomy.
The villagers were actually in a bad mood.
Looking at what Dujuan's father is going through now, you can understand why these people are here.
"Dahu, you can't abandon my father!" Dujuan cried out anxiously. She wanted to go back, but was grabbed by an arm that was as thin as a skeleton.
"Ah! What are you doing? Let go of me!"
Du Juan was a little scared. In the moonlight, these people had pale faces and green eyes, making them look extremely terrifying.
However, the person who grabbed her threw her directly to the ground.
Dujuan felt some discomfort in her lower abdomen.
She clutched her stomach, growing increasingly anxious.
"What are you doing? Let her go!" Although Sun Dahu was angry at Du Juan's actions, the two had just gotten married and still had feelings for each other!
Qian's expression also changed slightly; Dujuan seemed to have just clutched her stomach.
The Sun family has always had only one child, could it be...?
"Big Tiger, Boss, you guys go and bring Du Juan back," Qian Shi whispered to the group.
However, before they could make a move, the refugees began to stir.
At that moment, a man stepped out and spoke in a sinister tone.
"Get out of the way, and hand over all your food, or else..."
His gaze swept over everyone, and he even licked his lips.
He was clearly fat and strong, but he gave off a very bad vibe.
That face gave off an extremely gloomy feeling.
Tang Bugui's eyes turned slightly cold. Just then, they heard Wang Mingtian's voice in their ears.
"This is the moment!"
Almost simultaneously, Wang Mingtian, the nameless old Taoist, and Granny Bai all made their moves.
Their target was that middle-aged man.
The Qian family and their group were not idle either; almost simultaneously, they charged forward.
The refugees seemed surprised that the villagers dared to stand up to them.
There was a hint of confusion in their eyes.
Just then, Wang Mingtian and his group rushed up to the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man wasn't afraid at all; instead, he laughed, his eyes filled with a chilling light, and said, "You're courting death!"
He seemed to see into Wang Mingtian's eyes, paused for a moment, and then smiled.
"There are actually like-minded people here!"
As he spoke, he excitedly rushed towards Wang Mingtian.
Wang Mingtian...
"Who the hell is on your side? You piece of trash, do you even deserve to be called one!"
Wang Mingtian's consistently superior image was shattered in that instant.
The villagers all looked at Wang Mingtian with extremely strange expressions.
Wuming's lips twitched. He did know why Wang Mingtian was acting this way, but...
Forget it, this has nothing to do with me, so I'd better keep quiet!
While the two were talking, Wuming decided to go and rescue Dujuan and her father first.
There was no one else around them at the moment.
Wuming glanced at Dujuan, his expression changing slightly. Why did this woman seem to have the appearance of an early death?
He frowned slightly, but still went to rescue the person first.
"Since you are the same kind as me, why bother with these lowly people..."
The middle-aged man blocked Wang Mingtian's attack, and his eyes showed even more contempt for Wang Mingtian.
Wang Mingtian's face was dark, and he said in an unfriendly tone, "You filth shouldn't even exist in this world, what a piece of trash!"
Wang Mingtian took out a talisman from his pocket and stuck it directly onto the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man's eyes were bloodshot, but his body quickly retreated backward.
"How could you be so ruthless? I even considered you a partner!" The man touched the wound on his face, his eyes instantly turning frenzied.
Wang Mingtian...
He's going to kill that bastard!
This time, Wang Mingtian didn't say a word and just went for it!
The villagers noticed that Mr. Wang seemed unusually irritable today.
For a moment, no one dared to approach; they simply fought the others from a distance.
"Hey, have you guys noticed? These people seem to be quite strong in combat!"
Tang Qi frowned and said after dealing with the three people.
Tang Cheng and his group also noticed something was wrong. These people seemed to be very strong. They looked lean, but they were extremely ruthless when they fought.
Just then, Xiao Su Bao and Xiao Mo Bao returned to the village.
Even before getting close, I saw the former Wang Xiuer holding a broom, followed by a number of women and children.
Their eyes all showed a hint of tension.
Seeing Xiao Su Bao return, for some reason, everyone suddenly seemed to have found a pillar of support.
"Su Bao, are you alright? You need to go home quickly. Mo Bao, San Bao, Da Bao, Er Bao, you all must protect your little aunt!"
Wang Xiuer looked at the children and shouted.
Fu Manduo, Su Yun, and the others were also here. Upon hearing Wang Xiuer's words, all their eyes fell on Xiao Su Bao.
"Su Bao, did you see those people just now? Were they really like the monsters in the storybooks?" Fu Manduo leaned close to Su Bao, his eyes lighting up instantly.
She thought of the many storybooks she had read before, and felt unexpectedly excited.
Little Su Bao didn't know what to say.
She sensed that something was wrong with those people.
For some reason, Xiao Su Bao felt a sudden, inexplicable panic!
Her brows were furrowed, and there was a hint of unease in her eyes.
The little dumpling trembled all over, and fine beads of sweat appeared on its forehead.
"Su Bao..."
Looking at Xiao Su Bao's appearance, Fu Manduo's expression changed slightly, and he also became nervous.
She couldn't help but reach out and take Xiao Su Bao's hand, asking in a low voice, "Are you feeling unwell?"
Xiao Su Bao only realized what was happening when she heard Fu Man Duo's anxious voice.
"It's okay... I'm fine!" Xiao Su Bao waved her hand, but her face was still deathly pale.
Fu Manduo looked at Xiao Su Bao with increasing worry.
Thinking back to Xiao Su Bao's previous behavior, Fu Man Duo pursed his lips in worry.
She quickly looked at Wang Xiuer and gave her a look.
"Second Sister-in-law!" Fu Manduo called out softly.
"I'm here!" Wang Xiuer said, then realized something was wrong.
Wang Xiuer bent down and picked up Xiao Su Bao.
The little dumpling was startled, and even its fear dissipated somewhat.
"Second...Second sister-in-law, please put me down!"
Little Su Bao wrapped her arms around Wang Xiu'er's neck, not daring to move an inch.
Wang Xiuer's belly was already bulging, and Xiao Su Bao was afraid that she might accidentally crush her little nephew.
"It's alright, I'm strong, I can easily carry a little kid like you." Wang Xiuer glanced around and saw that many elderly people and women were looking over.
"Alright, everyone wait here. I'll take my little Su Bao back first. She's a delicate girl and easily frightened!"
After saying that, Wang Xiuer turned around and walked towards the Tang family.
The group exchanged glances, momentarily at a loss for words.
Tang Xin and the other girls wanted to go over, but Tang Dabao stopped them.
There was no one else in charge of things in the village at the moment. He glanced at Bai Yinjun and Tang Xin and said, "Yinjun, Tang Xin, you two take the village children and go look around, in groups of three or five..."
After a pause, Tang Dabao continued, "I'd like to trouble all the aunties and sisters-in-law to stay here for a while and walk around the village. We need to make sure no one with ulterior motives gets in!"
"Don't worry, village chief, we'll definitely handle what you said perfectly!" Several village women immediately patted their large chests and shouted.
Tang Dabao nodded in agreement, but then jogged after him.
Sun Cuihua is cooking at home right now.
She didn't want to cook, but she was nervous and didn't know how to cook anything else, so she could only make some food first so that they could eat when they came back.
Hearing the commotion outside, Sun Cuihua quickly went outside.
As soon as I came out, I saw Wang Xiuer holding Xiao Su Bao.
Sun Cuihua's face darkened instantly. She wiped her hands on her apron twice and ran to the door.
Sun Cuihua picked up Xiao Su Bao and said to Wang Xiuer in an annoyed tone, "How old are you? How can you still be so ungrateful? It's only because Xiao Su Bao is well-behaved that you go and hold those three boys and see what happens..."
Sun Cuihua was already feeling anxious, and Wang Xiuer gave her a perfect outlet for her frustration.
Seeing Sun Cuihua possessed by her mother-in-law, Wang Xiuer immediately ran over to her like a lackey.
"Oh, sister-in-law, don't be angry! I'm in great health, I have a good appetite, so don't worry about me!"
Before Wang Xiuer could say anything more, she saw Sun Cuihua with a cold face, not even giving her a glance.
Wang Xiuer...
This sister-in-law is becoming more and more like my mother. How am I going to coax her so she won't get angry?
Suddenly, she slapped her thigh and shouted, "Ouch!"
"What's wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable somewhere?" Sun Cuihua, disregarding her anger, quickly stepped back.
Wang Xiuer looked at Sun Cuihua and quickly pulled her inside.
Tang Dabao and his brothers behind him were speechless for a moment.
However, they eventually closed the door and chased after each other into the house.
Princess Chang'an, Xiao Hua, and Lin Qiqi also came along, and they didn't look too good.
Little Su Bao finally calmed down. She hugged her eldest sister-in-law's neck and looked at her second sister-in-law warily.
I can't let my second sister-in-law take my arms again; it's too tiring.
"What exactly happened? Why are you being so secretive?" Sun Cuihua asked nervously.
Wang Xiuer...
She scratched her head and quickly looked at the little baby in Sun Cuihua's arms.
The little dumpling, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly shuddered and looked at Wang Xiuer warily.
"Second sister-in-law, you can't hug Su Bao!" the little girl said, looking at Wang Xiuer with a pitiful expression.
Sun Cuihua glared at Wang Xiuer with annoyance, but before she could speak, she heard her second sister-in-law's voice.
"Oh, that's not it. I'll be more careful next time. Su Bao, tell your second sister-in-law, just now... just now, did you sense something was wrong?"
Wang Xiuer looked nervously at Xiao Su Bao. Outside was her husband, the father of her child.
Although the two bickered a lot, their relationship was genuinely good.
If it weren't for the baby in her belly, she would have run away long ago.
"Wang Xiuer!"
Sun Cuihua's expression changed instantly, and her eyes were full of anger as she looked at Wang Xiuer.
"Are these the kinds of questions you can ask so casually? What did Mother say before?"
Sun Cuihua glanced at the children outside.
Fortunately, Tang Dabao and the others took the girls to the backyard.
If they were to hear this...
What if someone accidentally lets it slip and harms Xiaosubao?
Wang Xiuer's expression changed slightly, and she immediately looked at Xiao Su Bao: "I...I didn't mean to, I was just a little anxious!"
Little Su Bao's expression just now was really awful.
Sun Cuihua, who was standing to the side, was also worried, but she couldn't really lose her composure at this moment.
My mother-in-law once said, "When the sky falls, the first thing to do is to stay calm."
Xiao Su Bao could sense that her two sisters-in-law were not in a good mood.
The little dumpling paused for a moment, then said in a sweet, childish voice, "Don't be afraid, sister-in-law! Don't be afraid, second sister-in-law! Su Bao will protect you!"
Little Su Bao clenched her fists, her eyes filled with determination.
The two looked at each other, their hearts softening.
Just as she was about to speak, Xiao Su Bao seemed to sense something and suddenly broke free from her sister-in-law's embrace.
The next moment, the little dumpling hurriedly ran outside.
Little Mo Bao had been quietly waiting outside, and when she saw Little Su Bao run out, she quickly chased after her.
Little Su Bao stopped running and headed towards the back yard of the Tang family's house.
At that moment, Tang Dabao was squatting outside their rabbit hutch with several little girls, watching them.
The rabbits inside were quiet, but just now they suddenly became restless.
The goat and the dragon next door were also bleating irritably.
Butler Bai paced back and forth at the back door, looking somewhat wary.
Little Su Bao rushed behind Butler Bai and grabbed him by the neck.
He casually pulled Butler Bai behind him.
Almost at the same time, just as Butler Bai was being pulled back by Xiao Su Bao, a rope was suddenly thrown down from the wall.
Xiao Mobao rushed over instantly, grabbed an axe, and smashed it directly at the people above.
The man was emaciated, but his eyes were exceptionally bright; even under the moonlight, he could still see everything around him clearly.
"hey-hey!"
He let out a strange laugh.
Everyone shuddered, and Xiao Hua stood tightly guarding her princess.
"Miss, this person's laughter is terrifying!" Xiaohua whispered, her eyes filled with fear.
The man seemed to have heard Xiaohua's voice, and his laughter became even more pathetic.
Just then, Xiao Su Bao frowned, grabbed a stone from the ground, and threw it directly at the man's mouth.
The man, who was originally leaning against the wall, didn't take the stones that Xiao Su Bao threw at him seriously.
"Hehehe, little..." Before he could finish his next sentence, a tremendous force suddenly came from his mouth.
The stone hit his front tooth, blood spurted out, and he was in a terrible state.
"ah!"
The shrill screams instantly startled the elderly and children left behind in the village.
Almost at the same time, Bai Yinjun rushed over, accompanied by the carefree Song Yun.
"What's the rush? Nothing will happen anyway..."
