Chapter 17: Lin Wu Xuan Takes Action

  "What about Ah Qiang?" asked Da Hei.

  "Kill him, he is no longer Ah Qiang." Huang Daxian said coldly.

  Tang Guangze lowered his voice and shouted: "Tie him up first."

  "You will regret it." Huang Daxian said slowly.

  Immediately after, Huang Daxian and Tang Guangze got off the car and saw that we didn't say anything, so they went back to that off-road vehicle.

  It's as if nothing had ever happened, I don't dare ask them, but in my heart, I'm bearing some unmentionable pressure, I feel like I'm being driven mad.

  Everyone has a bad premonition, feeling that encountering such troubles in this wilderness must be some kind of omen from an unknown power, while Yu Gang suspects they've run into "ghosts".

  Perhaps I was too exhausted, in a daze, I saw a small old man with a pale face and a short stature, lying on top of a huge mound, stretching out half of his body, with a terrified look in his eyes, waving his hands wildly while shouting hoarsely: "Run quickly, run quickly, if you don't run, you'll lose your life!"

  "Ah..."

  I was so scared that I woke up immediately. That strange dream was too realistic. I saw everyone in the car sleeping, only the driver was driving.

  Luckily it was just a dream.

  I took a sip of water and was about to fall asleep again when I turned over several times in bed, but still couldn't sleep.

  Due to this strange dream, I couldn't stay any longer. The urge in my heart to return home became even more uncontrollable. After a series of mental struggles, I made up my mind to escape.

  When it was time to set up camp in the evening, I had all sorts of escape plans swirling around in my head.

  I don't want to die in the desert.

  When everyone had fallen asleep, the sky was almost bright. I got up quietly, carrying some dry rations and a large jug of water. Just as I was about to slip out of the tent, my mouth was covered by someone's hand.

  Unexpectedly, Yu Gang's hands were shaking violently despite my mouth being tightly covered by him.

  I subconsciously wanted to speak up and ask what was going on, but at this moment my breath caught in my throat, as if someone had tightly grasped my neck. Because something didn't feel right, a thick smell of blood suddenly appeared inside the tent...

  And around us, there were three or four people huddled in a corner, shivering like sieves.

  Huffing and puffing......

  A series of rapid breathing sounds came from beside me, a chill suddenly rose to my heart, and I subconsciously turned my head back. Beside me, an iron-green strange face turned over, with two huge eyeballs being particularly eye-catching.

  Damn it, it's Ah Qing.

  My heart was racing violently, I was scared to death. Ah Qiang's face was covered in bright red blood, like a yaksha from hell. The word "death" on his face seemed to deepen, and it looked very clear. Next to him, however, was a person with their neck bitten off. A pair of eyes were wide open, and the blood from his neck flowed out like a fountain. I recognized that it was Ah Ping.

  He killed Ah Ping.

  A Qing's eyes, covered in blood, stared tightly at me. He suddenly opened his mouth and grinned savagely, then walked towards us the next second.

  My whole body was trembling, and a layer of cold sweat formed on my back. I subconsciously wanted to retreat, but Yu Gang held me tightly, as if he didn't want me to move at all. I felt his body tense up to the extreme, stiff like a zombie. Did he sense something?

  I subconsciously gritted my teeth, although my whole body was tense, but I still didn't move.

  A Qing stepped closer and closer to us, his eyes with fresh blood swaying back and forth less than ten centimeters away from me, as if staring at a delicious dish.

  I swear, if Yu Gang hadn't been holding me down so tightly, I would have made a run for the door and not stayed here for another moment.

  Wasn't Tang Guangze the one who ordered Ah Qing to be tied up? Why would he appear here at this time?

  He also killed people.

  Now I finally understand why Huang Daxian wanted to kill Aqing.

  I thought Ah Q was about to make a move on me, when suddenly someone bumped into the tent pole, making a faint noise. At that moment, I felt a strong gust of wind blowing in front of me, and then Ah Q suddenly appeared in another tent.

  "Ah, save me..." A terrified voice came over, he wailed miserably, Ah Qing's waist moved and one hand grasped the person's neck, tightly pinching it. He opened his mouth and took a big bite into the neck, I could hear the sound of bones cracking very clearly. Ah Qing continued to bite down with relish, taking several consecutive bites, and that person's body and head were separated. Listening to the sound of the bones cracking, looking at the severed head being thrown aside, at that moment, I forgot to breathe, standing there stupidly, staring."

  Have you ever seen a person's body being eaten away bit by bit like fruit? Now such a thing is really happening right in front of my eyes. In the past, I only saw this kind of scene in American zombie movies, but now it's actually being performed, and I feel like my spirit is about to collapse.

  "Ah..."

  I couldn't bear it anymore and shouted out loud, I suddenly pushed Yu Gang away, retreated back into the tent, and all my blood rushed to my brain at this moment.

  Perhaps it was my cry that triggered it, and I saw my tent being pulled up by a force. Yu Gang and I were shaken along with the tent. Immediately afterwards, a huge mouthful of the tent was torn open, and a bloody face appeared with a strange smile, which made me feel terrified and stiffened on the spot.

  I don't know who fired several shots at the head, but Ah Qiang, covered in blood, probably heard the mixed sounds from that side. His speed was extremely fast, and through the torn open tent, I saw Ah Qiang crouch on one foot, leap into the air, and jump out six or seven meters away, instantly blocking the driver's path.

  The driver, who was running wildly while shouting, suddenly couldn't stop his feet and crashed into Ah Qing's body, just like a woman throwing herself into someone's arms. Ah Qing stretched out her hand and pinched the driver's throat, lifting him up directly. Although the driver struggled desperately with his hands and feet, he seemed as light as a toy in Ah Qing's grasp.

  He suddenly jumped into the air, and he could actually jump six or seven meters away. Even the strongest human being couldn't do it, but this mutated Ah Q had already lost all human thought.

  I followed Yu Gang out of the tent, holding that bronze sword in my hand. Because A Qing was six or seven meters away from us, a rotten and smelly smell came with the cold wind, making my head buzz and almost fainting me.

  "This damn thing has been eaten by so many people." Yu Gang cursed and his face looked very ugly.

  I suppressed my nausea and took advantage of the bright moonlight to take a clear look.

  It suddenly dawned on him that what Huang Daxian said was true, he was no longer Ah Qing.

  That was a man-eating monster.

  "Run, he's seen us!" The creature must have heard the sound from our side. As it turned its head to look in our direction, I also took off running. I desperately ran towards that patch of yellow over there. However, the creature was faster than us. I had only taken one and a half steps when the black-robed monster already leaped over me, covering six or seven meters with just one jump.

  Its pair of bulging eyes revealed a fierce glow, staring at me tightly, and suddenly like a lion, it pressed me under its body. I didn't have time to react or see its movement, the next second I was already pressed under its body.

  A huge force tightly grasped my neck, and in that instant, I only felt like my head was about to explode. The bones on my neck transmitted a series of interlocking cracking sounds, as if they could be twisted off at any time...

  "Bang... Bang... Bang..." Three consecutive gunshots, I felt the force wrapped around my neck seemed to have loosened a bit, so I suddenly used all my might to kick it with both feet.

  The one who fired the shot was Yu Gang, he tightly grasped the upper hand and pressed down on my monster, from which a thick, crimson liquid flowed out. The gunshot seemed to enrage it, letting out a loud howl towards the sky, and then it choked my neck, casually throwing me out, pouncing towards Yu Gang.

  As soon as he saw that monster approaching him, he was so scared that he ran away immediately. His speed was incredibly fast, and in an instant, I couldn't see his figure anymore.

  At this moment, everyone rushed over with their guns. Da Hei, Tianyun Master, Huang Daxian and the others glanced at me before firing several shots at that strange creature.

  The monster seemed to be enraged by the gunfire. It let out a loud roar towards us, baring its teeth and claws as it charged at us.

  Dahai held a machine gun and fired at the monster's abdomen and chest, instantly, more than a dozen bullet holes appeared on the monster's chest, and blood gushed out.

  Under the power of the machine gun, the monster's body was already riddled with bullet holes, but it only retreated a few steps, as if it didn't take this seriously.

  "Damn it, not dead yet." Da Hei's face was covered in sweat as he cursed.

  Until the last bullet was fired, the 30 bullets in the magazine were all used up by Da Hei. When he was about to change the clip, the monster suddenly jumped in front of him, grasped his neck tightly with its hand, and Da Hei desperately kicked out with both feet. Just then, the monster opened its mouth and bit down on Da Hei's arm.

  "Ah......" Dahei let out a miserable cry, instantly, the entire desert echoed with that heart-wrenching scream.

  All of us watched this scene with a chill in our hearts.

  Master Tianyun charged at the monster, and due to inertia, he knocked it several meters away. The monster rolled on the sand for a while before it could react. A figure appeared behind the monster, Lin Wuxuan holding a Mitsubishi military dagger, stabbed at the monster's chest. The monster let out a pained cry, and in an instant, it flipped over and leapt into the air, pouncing towards Lin Wuxuan.

  Lin Wu Xuan seemed to know what he was doing, easily dodging the monster's movements. He pressed one hand on the monster's shoulder and with a burst of strength, his entire body leapt over the monster's head. The other hand holding the trident spear stabbed forcefully at the monster's skull.

  At that moment, all of us held our breath.
