Night Owl.
This is the monster leader who controls the entire criminal group.
In other words, this is a family of monsters.
Proficient in the methods of humans and animals, most of the monsters that use humans to cure monsters are passed down from family. Each has its own strengths. They treasure their own brooms and never reveal their secret recipes. Their style is similar to that of some craftsmen in the old days of China. There are many such families, and Ye Xiao is just the same. is one of them.
However, Night Owl is also the most unexpected among these families. At the earliest, the Djinn did not even consider this family at all, because this kind of monster is just a legend, existing in ancient early myths, although it exists among the people. It is a legend, but no one associates it with real monsters. Even people like Li Huang have never hunted them with their own hands. There are no bones of night owls in his collection. Dawn’s understanding of night owls All from one manual.
A hundred years ago, a team from Dawn went on a mission abroad and got an ancient manual from a monster in Europe. It recorded many monsters that Dawn had never seen before. Night Owl was one of them. This manual is now It is stored in the college's library, and only instructors have permission to access it. They are familiar with every record and illustration on it.
At this point, it suddenly dawned on me that night owls, like many monsters, had silently entered our folk culture and regarded themselves as ghosts and gods.
This is a bird-feathered thing with two wings on its back. The feathers on its body are black and its face has a beak. It is strong and sharp and can pierce iron plates. Legend has it that they can fly faster than the wind. It can fly higher than a whooper swan and can survive for a long time even in an oxygen-free environment. Once restrained, it will often cut off its wrists to escape at critical moments. It is proficient in He uses people to make medicine and is fascinated by this technology.
The booklet records that a master craftsman in Athens made a super animal trap to trap them. When their legs are caught in the animal trap, they will break their legs to escape.
……
After listening to what Gui Ji said, I accidentally thought of the monster that attacked the plane.
It should be the Night Owl, right?
It's a pity that I don't have the eyesight of Gui Ji. Even if I have seen it, I don't know what it is.
"Approximately how many are there?"
I thought about the horror and difficulty of that thing, and asked such a question with some difficulty.
"Ten..."
Gui Ji pondered for a moment, then added: "There may be more, but I only saw ten."
After saying this, she suddenly glanced at the Nine Dragon Sword in my hand, and sighed inexplicably: "In these troubled times, all kinds of rare monsters appear."
My heart was pounding, and I smiled bitterly: "What do you think I'm doing? Don't tell me that this matter has anything to do with me!"
"It's not about you, it's about the Nine Dragon Sword in your hand!"
Gui Ji’s eyes became more intense, staring at the Nine Dragon Sword almost without blinking. Her eyes were so sharp that she wanted to pierce the divine sword, so much so that I didn’t dare to look directly at it, so I could only turn my head away.
She then noticed her gaffe, put away her gaze, shook her head and sighed: "I hope my guess is wrong, but since the appearance of the Nine Dragon Sword, things have been really uneasy. I asked the Intelligence Department, recently The number of cases received has tripled from before, and the number of watchmen who died on duty has increased several times more than usual. This means that the cases we encounter are getting bigger and bigger, which is very abnormal!"
The more she said this, the more panicked I felt, as if I had instigated all these things. I smelled an undercurrent in Gui Ji's words, and I always felt that something big was going on. There are levels brewing that I don't understand, and the smell of blood is already permeating the air.
Unfortunately, when I asked too many questions, Gui Ji refused to say anything.
"You are hope, or you may be despair."
Finally, Gui Ji patted me on the shoulder and made this conclusion.
We stopped talking and gathered around the campfire to keep warm.
I was irritable, and when I was irritable, I felt hungry, so I took out dry biscuits wrapped in plastic paper from my backpack. At this time, only eating can make me feel more at ease and at least feel safe.
After eating, the soldiers approached Gui Ji, who was baking boots and pedicures by the campfire, and asked a very important question: "What should we do next? Return to Shuicheng Ridge? Master Djinn was still there when we left. Fight, maybe he is still alive?"
He had a knot in his heart, and he followed us because the giant spirit's order was too stupid, and he had to leave in order to survive. But when he really left, he felt a little guilty, or guilty. After all, the giant spirit was also his master, and he was his master along the way. He told me more than once that he felt like he was bullying his master and destroying his ancestors. Now that there is such a great master as Gui Ji around him, he has other thoughts.
"What the hell! Why are you going back? Are you going to be buried with me?!"
Gui Ji raised her smooth little feet and kicked the soldier out. He rolled around on the ground several times, and the last one got stuck in the mud. Then he said angrily: "I have been working with the giant for twenty years." You haven’t spoken for years, why are you pretending to be a filial son and a virtuous grandson?"
This woman is a bit brave. She retracts her feet and continues to warm herself by the fire. Her feet are very delicate. They are the legendary goose necks with charming curvature and neat fingers. They shine brightly in the firelight. She seems to be very satisfied with her feet. At the moment, She kept playing around in the bad environment, not caring that the three gentlemen sitting in front of her had been watching her picking her feet for a long time.
After fiddling with it for a long time, Gui Ji took a long breath of satisfaction and suddenly glanced at me: "What's your idea?"
I was stunned and asked, "What do you mean?"
"What's the point of running away! You told me about Shuichengling. That place was surrounded at that time, and the other party was conducting a surprise attack. If you hadn't noticed it at the first time, with the ability of you few, It’s weird! But in the middle of the night, why did you notice it in the first place? And the four of you discovered it together? Are you a liar? After thinking about it, the four of you must have planned to escape early, but it happened to happen before you could do it. I was caught in a sneak attack. Although I wasn’t very capable, I luckily got the upper hand. It’s not impossible to escape with all my strength!”
Gui Ji pointed at Da Bing and Ji Zi, curled her lips and said: "One of them is a brainless idiot, and the other is an ignorant fool. How could they run away? Although my apprentice is smart, he is by no means Such an old-fashioned style! After thinking about it, you are the only one among you who can do this!"
Cold sweat has fallen on my forehead.
"Are you planning to kill someone and silence me? Or are you starting to regret saving me?"
After Gui Ji stopped hating me, she talked a lot. She saw that my face was getting worse and worse, so she laughed, raised her feet and gave me a little kick. The feet were not big, but the strength was not small. All of a sudden, I was so stunned that I turned over and turned around. Fortunately, my feet were not smelly, otherwise I would have fought hard with you.
"Okay, put away your little thoughts. Do you think I don't know how sinister you are? You still have a loyal and honest face."
Gui Ji shook her head, racking her brains to use the most vicious words to ridicule me, and finally said: "Don't worry, I'm too lazy to expose you, that guy Djinn has no brains, I know him too well, I felt something was wrong when I was stationed at Shuichengling. I tried to persuade him several times, but he refused to listen. In the end, I had to let him go. Who made him the commander of this operation? Disobeying orders is such a big deal. I can't afford to carry the hat, and I deserve to end up like this. It's lucky that you can escape. Just treat it as you who fought hard to break through! Now that we're out, we definitely can't go back. As for the giant spirits, life and death are determined. , it’s all up to him!”
"What should we do?!"
I immediately asked: "Are you taking us back to Dawn?"
This place is too dangerous. It’s not that I don’t want to seek justice for the dead. It’s just that my ability is limited. It’s good to be alive. People like me are not suitable to be heroes.
How I wished Gui Ji would nod and look at her almost without blinking. She looked at me silently. After a long time, she suddenly smiled and gave me a big white eye: "Beautiful. Are you thinking that if you go back with me, if the sky falls and kills the tallest person first, I will be the one to block the gun if the organization has to deal with it?"
I scratched my head and smiled awkwardly. It was sometimes difficult to talk to such people.
"You can't go back. After seeing that factory, you should still have this idea of killing people for their own sake. I can't let you go back to the organization!"
Gui Ji put away her smile and said seriously: "Let's go to the meeting point. Calculate the time. Emperor Li should have arrived with the next group of people in the past two days. That place is not far from here. It takes a day's journey. , it’s almost dawn now, let’s get some sleep first and set off in three hours.”
It’s not good to have a leadership figure around you. Although there is more security, there is also a master who makes decisions without asking our opinions. However, we can’t resist yet, which makes me a little bit I doubt whether my decision to save her was the right one.
I couldn't resist, so I simply didn't resist and found a place with leeward wind and fell asleep.
Three hours later, Gui Ji picked us up on time and set off on the road.
With the protection of such a master, the jungle is no longer scary. At least we did not encounter too many difficulties during the one-day trip.
In a blink of an eye, the sun was setting and darkness enveloped the jungle.
We fell by the river, and now we are back by the river. This should be a certain section of the Beilun River. I cannot confirm the specific location.
A small camp was set up on the river beach. Tents similar to those of the Ewenki people were set up on the river beach. Fires were lit in front of the tents. Many men and women were eating in the camp. Thirty or forty people.
These people are all watchmen. They were dropped into Shiwandashan by helicopter just before dawn. They came earlier than we expected.
Gui Ji led us to hibernate in the dense jungle on one side and observe the watchers in front of us.
The soldier was a little excited when he saw these people, and he couldn't help but wanted to run out, but Gui Ji held him back.
"Something's wrong!"
Gui Ji squinted her eyes slightly and stared at the people on the river beach, with a solemn expression, and said softly: "Let's watch here for a while, maybe there will be a good show!"
