80 Demons and Monsters
Su Ying vomited for a while before she felt better. “I’m fine. I just ate too much.” She turned her back to Xiao Jin and took out a bottle of mouth-rinsing fluid from her bag to rinse her mouth. Her mouth felt a little better after that.
Su Ying returned to the carriage, and Xiao Jin pulled her to his side. “What happened? Why did you vomit for no reason?”
Su Ying took the water bag, had a sip of water, and said, “I just ate too much.”
Xiao Jin didn’t believe her. She had eaten even more in the past and nothing happened to her.
Indeed, Su Ying wasn’t telling the truth. Her vomiting was probably a drug reaction. Before entering the wooden house earlier, she had made preparations in advance. She had taken a pill that could block the effects of all kinds of drugs. However, the pill had side effects. After it entered the body, it had to be dispelled from the body within a certain period of time. She didn’t expect to vomit it out this time. It was downright unbearable. All the meat she had eaten tonight was for nothing!
In a tall building constructed of white walls made from green fired bricks within the Tiger Base, Mei Niang slowly opened her eyes.
She glanced at the figure sitting behind the screen and knelt on the ground in fear. “Master, please forgive me. It was my negligence.”
The shadow behind the screen swayed, exuding a sinister demonic aura. “I told you to look for tender meat, but you almost ruined my big plan. Mei Niang, you’re useless now.”
Mei Niang began trembling in fear. “Master, please spare me.”
“You’ve seen all kinds of people in the northern wilderness all these years, but you have been defeated by a woman.” The voice behind the screen grew more ominous.
“I didn’t expect her to be so powerful either. I have underestimated her.”
“Send someone to destroy the wooden building immediately.”
“Yes, yes.”
Meanwhile, Wang Lang and his family brought Madam Sun to the other side of the open space. Her eye whites were already showing.
“Argh!” Madam Sun suddenly convulsed violently and collapsed to the ground. She opened her eyes in anguish, eyes which were full of terror.
“Mother, Mother! How are you, Mother?” Wang Lang anxiously tried to help Madam Sun up, but she was very strong and brought Wang Lang to the ground in an instant.
The silver was still stuck in her throat, making her unable to breathe. In the end, her trembling movements became less and less, and her eyes gradually became unfocused.
“Grandma, Grandma, how are you?” Wang Furong looked at Madam Sun and was frightened quite badly. “Father, it’s all because of Su Ying. Su Ying killed Grandma.”
Wang Lang looked at Madam Sun, who had fallen to the ground and couldn’t get up, and clenched his fists in anguish. He felt that his mother’s crime didn’t warrant death, but he didn’t expect Su Ying to be so ruthless.
“Mother…”
“Oh gosh! This is really a sin. She looks so pitiful.”
In the darkness, a faint yellow halo suddenly appeared. A thin, old lady with a slightly hunched back and a wrinkled face walked over.
“Who… who are you?” Wang Lang stared at the old lady warily.
The old lady laughed. “I’m the doctor in Tiger Base. I can see that your mother is dying. If you guys are willing, you can carry her to my house. I’ll take a look at her.”
Reason told Wang Lang that he shouldn’t leave with the other party without knowing the other party’s background. However, when he looked at Madam Sun, who was hanging on to her last breath, he gritted his teeth and agreed.
“Then I’ll have to trouble you. May I ask where you stay?”
The old lady stretched out her hand and pointed in a certain direction in the darkness. “Not far. It’s just up in front.”
Wang Lang raised his head and saw that the place was on the other side of the open space, not too far away.
“Thank you.”
The old lady glanced at them and walked in front with the lantern. “Come. Come quickly.”
Wang Furong looked at the old lady’s back profile and was a little scared. “Father, this old lady looks a little scary. I think we better don’t go.”
Wang Lang said with a grim face, “Let’s go and take a look. We’ll leave if the situation doesn’t look right.” She was just an old lady, and he felt that he should be able to deal with her.
The four of them followed the old lady and soon disappeared into the darkness.
Howl!
A wolf’s howling woke up the people in the open space.
Su Ying was jolted awake from her sleep. She jumped off the carriage and looked around warily.
Wang Su, who was on night duty, also walked over.
Su Ying scanned through the surroundings once and didn’t find anything strange. She prodded the alpha wolf leader with her foot. “Why are you howling?”
The alpha wolf leader let out a low growl and howled again in the direction of the wooden building.
A moment later, the wooden building not far away suddenly caught fire. The flames engulfed the entire wooden building in a short time.
Su Ying squinted her eyes and walked briskly toward the wooden building.
The moment she arrived, she saw a dark figure darting out of the wooden building swiftly.
Su Ying turned around and gave chase.
The dark figure was very fast, and with the cover of the night, it was easy for the eyes to get confused.
Su Ying took out her tranquilizer gun and shot, but the dark figure managed to dodge her shots twice.
Su Ying’s eyes widened, and she sped up in hot pursuit again. Just as she was about to catch up, a figure emerged from the darkness and blocked her way.
“Gosh, little miss! You should be careful. Why are you running so fast in the middle of the night?”
Su Ying quickly stopped and steadied herself. She looked down at the old woman who was blocking her way, and an icy glint flashed across her eyes. If she remembered correctly, wasn’t this the old woman who had pointed out the empty plot of land to her?
Su Ying suddenly reached out and grabbed the old lady by the neck.
The old woman was shocked. “You… Argh… Argh…”
The old woman struggled, but against Su Ying, her efforts were like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.
When she saw that the old lady was on the verge of death, Su Ying suddenly released her grip.
The old woman fell to the ground and gasped for breath hungrily.
Su Ying squatted down and said indifferently, “Old woman, don’t go out on the streets at night unnecessarily. Otherwise, you won’t even know how you died.”
With that, she stood up and looked in the direction that dark figure fled. The other party must have escaped by now, and there was no point in chasing him.
“You… you… you’re very vicious, little miss. You won’t even let an old woman like me off.”
Su Ying gave a scornful laugh. “Compared to the demons and monsters in Tiger Base, using the word ‘vicious’ on me is not appropriate. Old woman, you’re on your own now.”
Su Ying turned around and disappeared into the night.
After making sure that she had gone far away, the old woman slowly stood up from the ground, her face completely devoid of the weak and fragile look she had earlier.
Behind her, a dark figure walked out.
“It’s all thanks to your timely appearance just now, otherwise I would have been caught by her. This woman doesn’t have the light-footed skill, yet she can still run so fast.”
The old woman gave a scornful snort. “If not for the fact you are still useful, I wouldn’t have shown myself.”
The dark figure felt the comment was unjustified. “Mei Niang was also defeated by her.”
“That slut has always been useless. Get lost. Don’t be an eyesore here.” The old woman said as she turned around and left.
The dark figure watched the old woman leave and also disappeared into the night.
By the time Su Ying returned to the open space, the fire raging in the wooden building was already very big. Xiao Jin instructed everyone to find a location upwind to avoid being enveloped in the thick black smoke.
“Mistress, you’re back.”
Su Ying nodded and sat down next to Xiao Jin.
“What did you find out?”
“I found out that there are more demons and monsters in Tiger Base than I thought,” Su Ying said with an ominous look in her eyes.
