"I've finally caught another. I'm so hungry, I'm so hungry!"
"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up! I'm starving!"
"Yes, hurry up. Everyone's hungry!"
The four emaciated men had crazed expressions on their faces, as if they were malicious ghosts.
When they saw Su Mu in Li Tiezhu's hand, they couldn't help but urge him.
Their turbid eyes were filled with an almost manic desire!
In the light of the fire, the four twisted faces flickered, more terrifyingly than demons!
Or rather, they were already demons!
...
Su Mu felt his entire body freezing up!
He had already guessed his fate.
Even though he could not suppress the fear in his heart, he still made a final attempt.
"Uncle Li, you've watched me grow up! Do you have the heart to do this?"
Su Mu, who was being held by the scruff of his neck, couldn't move. He couldn't turn his head to look at Li Tiezhu, and could only shout desperately.
The next moment, a voice that was so calm that it made one's hair stand on end came.
"Little Su, I've provided you with so much food after your parents passed away. I've raised you, right?
"If you raise chickens, you eat chickens. What's wrong with that?
"Today, it's time for you to repay me.
"Oh right, do keep good company of Rock."
After saying that, Li Tiezhu quickly walked toward the pot.
The bubbling soup was agonizingly hot, but it did nothing to his freezing blood!
"Uncle! Wait, wait! I, I have a stomachache, I'm going to have a diarrhea."
"Wait for me to finish pooping, don't let me spoil this pot of good soup. I..."
"Swish!"
Before Su Mu could finish his words, a thick, blood-stained sickle was thrust into his neck.
The skill [Rest In Peace] was activated after the fatal injury.
In an instant, Su Mu died, and his consciousness fell into darkness.
Su Mu let out a string of curses in the absolute darkness.
His life had been too miserable.
He lost his mother at three, and his father at five.
He barely lived to eight by begging.
In the end, he encountered a drought and famine!
The scene of starving people on the ground was like hell!
The most terrifying thing was that this disaster not only destroyed the physical body, but also the spirit!
The once-kind blacksmith had turned into a half-human, half-demon monster. He didn't even let go of his own son, let alone Su Mu.
Fortunately, it was a painless death.
He didn't know if this was the only silver lining in his tragic life.
...
Eight bitter years turned into scenes of memories that flashed through Su Mu's mind.
But very quickly, Su Mu realized that something was wrong.
Shouldn't they return to the white space after death?
Why was there no movement?
Just as Su Mu was feeling puzzled, he suddenly recovered his hearing and once again received sounds from the outside world.
It was the ravings of a mad demon.
"Fragrant! It's too fragrant!"
"Don't snatch, don't snatch! They're all mine!"
"Give him to me, I caught him, give him to me!"
"F*ck your mother, bring it over! Don't force me to do it!"
Hearing these voices, Su Mu had mixed feelings.
He didn't expect that under the effect of [Feast], this group of people would start fighting over it.
At the same time, he couldn't understand why he could hear the voices of the outside world again.
But more than that, it was disgusting! He was disgusted!
It turned people into raving beasts.
If he had the ability, Su Mu only wanted to erase all these things from the world!
...
The fighting did not die down, but only grew in intensity.
"I caught him! I raised him! Hurry up and give it to me!"
"Let go! Let go! Go to hell!"
Along with a curse, Su Mu heard a heavy and loud thud.
It sounded like someone had been struck hard.
Immediately after, the soup splashed with vigor.
Yet another person had fallen into this human soup.
It was silent.
Deathly silent!
The ruined temple fell silent.
Shouting, chewing, and swallowing.
They all disappeared.
All that was left was the sound of rapid breathing.
But soon, the chewing resumed.
And it was even more urgent than before!
...
Su Mu's heart turned cold.
He knew that someone else had died.
The soup had been topped up.
From the previous conversation, this person should be Li Tiezhu ...
For some reason, Su Mu's heart was filled with a surge of anger and killing intent!
These negative emotions were like flames springing up.
It was turning into a personal hell!
The next moment, a faint light broke through the darkness in Su Mu's vision.
His vision returned!
Under the night sky, the dilapidated temple was like a devil's den.
The four skinny men were gnawing on some flesh like wild dogs.
They spread out and looked at their companions vigilantly from time to time.
In the middle of the ruined temple.
The old and broken clay statue looked down at them with its remaining eye.
It was as if he was silently watching all of this.
Indistinctly, its eyelid seemed to tremble.
However, the four people in the ruined temple didn't notice it at all. They continued to gnaw madly, throwing down bones one after another.
They didn't even notice that some of the discarded bones were slowly moving!
They pieced together and turned into a small skeleton that was half the height of a man. It started clacking away.
This time, the four of them finally noticed something strange.
"Ah! Ghost! A ghost!"
"Don't kill me. I did not eat much, I ate the least. Don't kill me!"
"Bodhisattva, save me! Quickly, take this damn thing away!"
The four evil men no longer looked dangerous or domineering. They were scared witless.
Some of them kneeled on the ground and begged the little skeleton for mercy.
Some kneeled down in front of the old statues and prayed to the gods.
Some people leaned against the wall and shivered. They glanced at the exit behind the little skeleton, thinking about how to escape.
No matter what they did, they were extremely terrified!
These country bumpkins were always in awe of ghosts and gods.
The very bones they had feasted on moments ago was standing before them.
How could they not be afraid?
What they didn't know was that Su Mu, who had turned into a skeleton, was nowhere as powerful as it seemed!
For some unknown reason, he, who was supposed to be dead, suddenly gained a wave of power.
With the help of this power, Su Mu controlled his bones and pieced them together, forming a small skeleton.
However, that was all.
Su Mu knew instinctively that this skeleton was extremely fragile, and could be blown down by a gust of wind.
As the four men looked on in terror, Su Mu carefully took his first step.
...
When they saw the skeleton child approaching them, the four of them were even more frightened.
One of them even wet his pants, and his eyes were unfocused.
But the next moment,
"Whoosh!"
As soon as Su Mu's foot touched the ground, his body fell apart under the impact of the recoil.
"I..."
The speechless Su Mu didn't even have the time to complain before his consciousness was banished from this world.
The next second, he returned to the inceptive space.
The last scene he remembered was the four of them looking at a pile of bones with dumbfounded expressions...
