I was also shocked. I could clearly see that the leather figurine womans head hadnt become loose or fallen off, but turned a sharp 180 degrees, as if there was a force affecting her neck.
Ha Zong immediately threw the leather figurine woman away. When it fell to the ground, I saw the most incredible scene of my life. The leather figurine womans whole body twisted and stood up in a distorted form.
Although it looked like a leather figurine, it appeared to be some kind of mollusk. The human skin all over its body twisted as it stood up.
"What is this thing?!" I looked at the twisted skin in horror and saw that the face had been completely distorted into leech-like strips.
"Its the green water beetle!" Ha Zong shouted.
"Isnt the green water beetle a bug?! This fucking thing isnt a bug! I cursed at him. This iswhat is this thing?!"
Ha Zong climbed to the door and tried to open it to make his escape, but I guess the lock got stuck when I closed it earlier. When he found he couldnt open it, he started yelling, "We're screwed, we're screwed! Youre going to get me killed, you idiot!"
When I saw the human skin slowly twist and turn into a long strip, I grabbed a nearby stool, smacked the figurine so that it fell onto the bed, and then went up and wrapped it in a blanket.
The figurines skin looked as thin as a piece of paper, but it was actually quite strong. I tore off my belt while Ha Zong kept pulling on the door. As I wrapped my belt tightly around the blanket, I saw that thing began to emerge from the gap. I could even see the expression on the completely distorted face.
"Is there any wine?" I asked Ha Zong.
He cursed, "How are you still in the mood to drink?"
I turned to look around the room and saw a washing machine in the corner. I picked up the blanket, shoved it directly into the washing machine, and then turned it on the strongest cycle.
The washing machine instantly started running and I yelled at Ha Zong to help. I shoved the nearby table directly on top of the washing machine and then sat on it.
"Thats not going to do a damn thing! Ha Zong shouted.
"You underestimate todays washing machines!" I yelled back.
The thing suddenly slammed against the washing machines door and almost succeeded in getting out. "Come here!" I shouted.
Ha Zong tugged on the door one more time, looked at me again, and finally ran over and sat on the table with me.
"What the hells going on?" I asked him.
"This fucker is a green water beetle! Ha Zong said. The term green water beetle makes it sound like its a kind of flying insect. No one has ever seen them before, but theyre actually something like human skin. The ancients used them to collapse into various forms to harm people."
"Harm them how?"
Ha Zong looked at the tongue in my hand, "It eats them. The only thing left over is in your hand!"
I looked at the tongue in my hand and suddenly understood. I had a shocked expression on my face as I yelled, "You shouldve fucking told me earlier! Why were you messing around for so long? If you had said so earlier, I wouldve gotten rid of it!"
Ha Zong looked at me, "You dont understand. This thing understands human words. It holds grudges!"
"What kind of logic is that?!" I was furious. "Bugs understanding human language? You're speaking Mandarin, so how the hell could it understand? Did it also go through nine years of compulsory education?!"
"It just fucking knows!" Ha Zong shouted.
There was a violent shock underneath us, as if the thing was trying to knock the base of the washing machine apart. The washing machine fell over, taking the two of us to the ground with it. When we looked back, we saw a blanket-wrapped behemoth rushing out of the washing machine along with a bunch of water. The leather figurine was completely soaked and had become enormous.
