Quick Wear: The Wronged One Becomes Rebellious

Chapter 310: Marrying the Mountain God 32

Lian Yunshen pulled Gu Li to the side of the road.

Those were the villagers who stayed at Qi Dashan's house to watch the excitement. They all looked terrified, nervous and frightened. They ran and shouted for help.

"What is that? Is it a man-eating monster? Help! Run!"

"Run, run!"

Gu Li hesitated whether to go back and take a look, but subconsciously she felt that rescuing Lian Yunshen was enough, and what happened afterwards had nothing to do with her.

Lian Yunshen saw her hesitation and said, "I'll stay with you!"

"it is good."

When I returned to Qi Dashan's house, it was already ablaze.

Several constables stood at the door with machetes in their hands, and hay was piled around the yard.

The fire was burning fiercely, probably because of the oil.

It looks like it was prepared in advance.

The village chief's hair turned completely white under the light of the fire. He squatted by the wall and murmured, "The pillar is still inside, the pillar is still inside!"

"Brother Constable, what happened in there?"

Seeing that it was the young lady who reminded them to be careful and not to go into the house, the constable kindly reminded them: "It's very dangerous here, leave quickly, go back and close the doors and windows, and don't come out!"

The fire ignited the pillars under the eaves and quickly spread into the main room.

At this moment, a rough and harsh tearing sound came from the fire, and a tall and slender figure tried to break out of the fire.

The first to appear are two sickle-like forelimbs.

It's a praying mantis.

The mantis's tentacles were burned by the fire, and it shook its head in pain. The fire shook, allowing people outside to see more clearly.

The mantis was pink all over, its body was porcelain white, and its limbs and head were tender pink, as if it was wearing a colorful dress.

Beautiful as jade, tender as flower stamens.

It is a rare orchid mantis.

Lian Yunshen hugged Gu Li and took her away from the courtyard. He didn't expect that there would be a monster in the village.

A few brave young men also stayed behind, and they were all frightened at this moment.

Lian Yunshen asked one of the relatively calm people, "What's going on in there?"

When they left, this place was still fine.

The man stretched his neck and swallowed hard. He said, "Everything was normal. The midwife inside was also shouting something like 'it's almost time'. Then I heard her scream. Aunt Ru stumbled out and said that Tang Laner had given birth to a lot of little mantises. The ground was full of-----"

When the constable ran in, he saw that the midwife's face and neck were bitten to pieces and she had fallen to the ground, dead.

"The female mantis has just given birth and is at her weakest. We can't let her escape." The constable stared at the shadow in the main room, pouring oil in his hands without stopping.

The orchid mantis didn't seem to have any intention of rushing out. It stood there for a few breaths, and suddenly something was ejected from above the flame.

Gu Li was wrapped in Lian Yunshen's arms and couldn't see clearly, but Lian Yunshen saw it, "It's the egg case she laid and some baby mantises that have hatched!"

The detectives also saw it. They poured a whole bucket of kerosene on the densely packed little creatures on the ground. There was no need to ignite it. The flames nearby quickly licked up and devoured the crawling things on the ground.

The orchid mantis in the fire became angry, and rushed out while waving its two catching legs, being burned by the fire.

The four constables were on high alert, but the orchid mantis's first priority was to put out the fire for her cub. A low and unpleasant buzzing sound came from the orchid mantis's mouth.

Gradually it turned into the sound of a woman crying.

Tang Lan'er cried out: "My child, my child, why did you kill my child?"

Tang Lan'er's body was also on fire, but she still wanted to rescue her children from the fire regardless of the consequences.

"Tang Lan'er, when you killed Qi Zhuzi, why didn't you think that he was also his mother's child?"

Tang Laner picked up a few burnt mantises, tears streaming down her face, "I didn't kill him! He volunteered."

"And the midwife?"

"I didn't mean to do that. I really didn't mean to do that. She dropped my child and I lost control of myself!"

The constable then asked, "What about Qi Dashan? Why did you kill him?"

Tang Lan'er's tears flowed even more fiercely. "I'm just too hungry. I don't want to eat him. I'm just too hungry. I wanted to eat the man who came to my house, but Dashan suddenly woke up. He held me and didn't allow me to touch other men. He held my hand and said he was willing to do anything for me. He said he would be happy to give me a few bites. I don't want to eat him all, but my children need their father's nutrition!"

Gu Li hugged Lian Yunshen tightly. It turned out that he was almost eaten by Tang Lan'er that night!

Lian Yunshen was so tired from Gu Li that the wound on his back split open. He said nothing, but gently patted her back with his big hands, silently comforting her.

Gu Li thought that Tang Lan'er might be a transformed monster, but she didn't guess it was an orchid mantis.

No wonder she is so beautiful but always manages to be so abrupt and natural that people ignore her existence.

The biggest feature of the orchid mantis is its beauty. It can imitate the shape of flowers to conceal its existence, both for hunting and to avoid natural enemies.

When a female mantis is pregnant, she will indeed eat her mate. So, when Gu Li asked her who killed Qi Dashan that day, Tang Lan'er had already told her the answer.

She said she was hungry, she was very hungry!

Over there, the constable was still asking, "Did you kill Qi Zhuzi because you were too hungry and wanted to eat him?"

The village chief stood up tremblingly, holding on to the wall, waiting for Tang Lan'er's answer.

"I didn't want to eat his food. He kept forcing me to do that. He didn't allow me to meet Shitou again. I could only eat what he brought. But what he brought was too little. I didn't have enough to eat!"

Gu Li just felt creepy, not knowing whether what Tang Lan'er was talking about was normal human food or cannibalism.

No wonder she only saw Qi Shitou circling around Tang Lan'er every time, but rarely saw Zhuzi. However, Zhuzi's determination to get Tang Lan'er was much stronger than Qi Shitou's.

In the two fights between brothers that Guanggu Li saw, Zhuzi was the first to attack.

It turned out that Zhuzi went to find more delicious food for Tang Lan'er.

The village chief asked in a trembling voice: "Why did my eldest grandson faint behind your house? Where is my youngest grandson? Is it true, is it true-----"

Tang Lan'er turned to the village chief, the old village chief who had always been friendly to her, and she was willing to tell him the truth.

"The two children came with their father. I didn't want to let them in. It was Zhuzi who brought the younger one in and asked me to eat----"

"Ah!" The village chief couldn't bear to hear this, so he yelled and rushed into the fire with his fists raised.

He was stopped by the agile constable who raised his knife, "Father, don't be impulsive. Wait until you have found out everything."

Gu Li also saw through the intention of the constables. They wanted to delay time so that Tang Lan'er could not get out and be burned to death.

However, she saw that Tang Lan'er had no intention of leaving the fire. She stood where the little mantises were burned, crying.

His nature is simple, yet he has the deadly cruelty of an animal.
