Night fell, and the search of Lake Pipa was still ongoing. A mud-like thing slowly moved across the hills, crawling through the forest, and gradually moving towards a small village.
"Woof woof woof!!!"
Island nation people named places in a very Chinese style. For example, XX Jin referred to a ferry, or the intersection of a certain river, and XX Chuan referred to the river.
In a small village built next to a ferry, a yellow-striped dog barked incessantly.
It looked at the mudflat with its teeth bared, arched its body, and raised its big tail nervously.
Its two big eyes were filled with vigilance.
"Woof woof!!"
The continuous barking was really a torture to the ears. It made people feel annoyed and the back of their necks numb.
The old owner next to it was very annoyed. He had just lost some money playing cards.
"Little brat, be quiet."
But the owner's scolding not only did not work, but it also made the dog bark more and more fiercely.
Not only the owner's dog, but all the cats and dogs in the village seemed to be summoned, barking in unison like a chorus of animals.
"It's summer, not the time for animals to bark."
The suspicious owner shone a strong flashlight on the mudflat. There was only a patch of black, wet soil. There was nothing strange about it.
It was said that animals could see things that humans couldn't. Could it be that this kid saw something? The mountain people were very superstitious, especially with the recent supernatural incidents in Lake Pipa.
"Really, don't scare me."
The owner gently kicked his dog a few times and quickly returned to the room.
He was a little scared, just a little.
Lake Pipa had not been peaceful recently. Although the prison and TV said that the monster in Lake Pipa had been eliminated, who knew if there were other things lurking in the lake, such as Kappa and drowned souls.
"Phew."
Looking through the window slit and seeing that nothing had changed, the dog owner heaved a sigh of relief.
"Watching TV, watching TV, I've lived here all my life, why didn't I realize that the place I lived in was so scary?"
Not long after the owner left, the dark mudflat slowly changed, and the big yellow dog barked even more crazily.
All the dogs in the village were triggered and started barking like frogs in a pond.
"Gulp."
Suddenly, a pool of water was squeezed out from the pitch-black silt. It solidified like glue and slowly took shape, forming a python with only the upper half of its body.
"Hiss ~"
The water snake flicked its tongue and analyzed the smell in the air.
"Woof woof!!"
When the two-legged frog finally left, the water snake heaved a sigh of relief. What it feared the most now was the inconspicuous two-legged frog.
What was that glowing thing in the two-legged frog's hand? It looked extremely scary. Could it have been pierced in half by the light?
The water snake had been traumatized by the Two-Legged Frogs, and it was on the verge of becoming autistic. Its broken body was the best evidence of its trauma.
Although the two-legged frogs were small in size, each of them had their own divine abilities. If they weren't using tree branches to release fierce sword qi, they would be using their bones to flip their bodies. Even the missile that blew up half of his body must have been created by the two-legged frogs.
It didn't dare to underestimate the two-legged frogs anymore. The brutal two-legged frogs were the top predators. This time, it also escaped with the help of another flying frog.
Therefore, when the old two-legged frog left, the water snake wriggled out timidly.
"If I don't eat, I'll starve to death."
The injuries on its body were too serious. Even snakes with strong vitality couldn't hold on for too long.
Fortunately, the water snake was smart enough to use water escape to seal the bleeding area, so it didn't die.
"Woof woof!!"
The guard dog barked even more impatiently.
It's out. The monster in the mudflat is out. The horrible smell is so pungent that the dog is trembling all over.
Seeing the half of the python wriggling toward it, the dog's barking became softer and softer. Finally, it tucked its tail between its legs and whimpered as if it was begging for mercy.
"Hiss ~"
The water snake's body swelled up. One dog, half of a dog, no dog. The barking of the dogs in the village weakened a bit.
No one in the quiet village noticed that a massacre was going on. As long as the water snake started to attack, the animals in the village couldn't even fight back.
"Is the TV replaying this again?"
The old man put down the flashlight, took out a few bottles of beer from the refrigerator, put them on the table, and sat cross-legged to watch the TV.
The news of the snake monster being killed was played at high intensity on the TV. It was as if the 24 hours were turned into 48 hours. However, this could indeed reduce the fear of the supernatural in the hearts of the people.
No matter how powerful the supernatural was, it was still subdued by us humans.
"Breaking news …" The recording screen suddenly changed, and a male host with a serious face appeared. "On May 15th, the Divine Sword Inheritance Ceremony will be held in Nara, and the whole process will be broadcast live …"
"It's not an earthquake?" Seeing the picture change, the dog owner thought that there was another super big earthquake.
But what does this Divine Sword Inheritance Ceremony mean?
The new emperor's artifact inheritance doesn't seem to be the use of this term.
The fewer words, the bigger the problem. The dog owner pondered for a while. After drinking a bottle of beer, his head was a little dizzy. He didn't go back to bed, but found a pillow and lay on the ground to sleep.
But before the sky was bright, all kinds of exclamations woke him up from his sleep.
"Who is it? It's so noisy so early in the morning."
"No, no, it's not good!
It's eaten, it's all eaten! "
"What?"
"It's eaten by a monster!"
All the cats, dogs, and dogs in the village had disappeared without a trace. They had mysteriously disappeared overnight.
This was not the loss of humanity, nor the loss of morality, but the appearance of a monster!
Only the deep drag mark on the ground was left. The huge drag mark could fit a person's shoulder.
The mark looked like a snake, but how could there be such a big snake!
They had lived here for generations, and they had never heard of such a monster.
Unless it was the Dragon King of Lake Pipa that had been spreading like wildfire these days … The government defined it as a water monster.
"No, it can't be the water monster of Lake Pipa."
"Didn't the government say that it has been eliminated!"
"You believe what they said."
"Call the police, call the police!
Let's drive away. "
Many of the people living in the small village were old people. How could they drive when their legs were not convenient?
It was like they were fleeing. After reporting the address to the police, the people in the small village left in their cars in twos and threes. No one would joke with their lives.
The water snake that thought it was hiding went to the place where the sun set after eating and drinking. It was happy and refreshed.
Although it didn't know the saying that a friend in need is a friend indeed, the water snake decided to believe the two-legged frog.
The flying two-legged frog wouldn't lie to it. Since it told it to go there, it must have its reasons. Maybe there were no two-legged frogs at the place where the sun set, or maybe it was the base camp of the water snakes?
They gathered together on a large scale like the two-legged frog.
