Chapter Ch42.2 - Cannibal Town

Translator: Yuzu

Ma Hang was trembling all over, and his cold sweat couldn’t stop pouring out, blurring his vision.

Argh!

It hurts!

Ma Hang’s pale mouth trembled as he let out grunting sounds. He exhaled deeply and buried his head, pleadingly, “It hurts so much!!!! Ah!!!”

Jin Hong was also in a mess because she was too anxious. She ran into the room and pulled open the suitcase. Flipping through it, she threw a bunch of clothes on the floor and hurriedly pulled out the first-aid kit in the innermost compartment.

Jin Hong’s hands were trembling. As a girl, she had never experienced anything as horrible as today. Still, she had long possessed the quality to stay calm in front of a patient as a medical student.

She forced herself to calm down.

Jin Hong quickly put on the medical gloves, and simply took the four fingers on the ground and handled them with antiseptic gauze. Then, Jin Hong knelt on the floor and prepared to wrap Ma Hang with bandages.

Jin Hong took out the clean dressing and gently pressed Ma Hang’s broken finger; Ma Hang screamed out in pain.

She didn’t have any painkillers in her first aid kit.

“Hold on!” Jin Hong’s voice was also shaking a bit as she tried to calm Ma Hang down.

Ma Hang cried out in pain and grabbed Ma Chenggong’s sleeve with his other hand. He cried out in pain and subconsciously buried his head in his brother’s bosom, muffling his cries. With a devastating emotion, he let out a heart-breaking sound, “Brother!!!! Am I going to die!”

Ma Chenggong’s chest rose and fell, his eyes were red, and even the veins on his temples and scalp were bulging at a visible speed. He gripped Ma Hang’s arms tightly and gritted his teeth. His inner emotions turned in all directions, like a chaotic arrow in his heart, “No, I won’t let you die!”

How could he not know this pain!!! He had experienced it too! And the person who made him suffer that kind of pain was precisely the person in front of him! The pain was so intense that he wanted to end it right there and then!

Thinking of this, tears gathered in the corners of Ma Chenggong’s eyes at some point.

He really hadn’t expected Ma Hang to stand in his way!

Saying that he came back from his rebirth without complaining at all about what Ma Hang had done in his past life was simply a lie! He was also full of resentment and wanted to question him!

It was just his senses telling him not to hate this Ma Hang, who had done nothing.

And right now, all of those heated emotions had vanished!

Ma Hang is his brother! You could’ve stood up for your brother even in the face of danger!

Jin Hong tended to the wound, pulled out a dry smile, and comforted, “Don’t worry, you won’t die! You’re lucky, the bleeding stopped!”

Only after the words were spoken, Ma Chenggong’s tension eased a little, but his entire state was still exhausted.

Hu Bing had been standing at the side with his eyes glued to Jin Hong’s every move. He sighed in relief after hearing the news that Ma Hang was fine.

The anxiety within him multiplied after this incident.

Before he could think of a strategy, he was taken aback by Huang Ke’s actions.

Huang Ke’s face remained unchanged throughout; there wasn’t even the slightest emotional fluctuation. After Jin Hong made a statement, he turned and looked around, as if he was thinking about something.

Huang Ke paused, his gaze fell on the corpse, and he sucked in a breath as if he was sniffing the thick smell of blood in the air.

He walked straight to the nearest corpse to him, stood next to it, and then squatted down.

Huang Ke didn’t even wear gloves, his hand directly attached to the old man’s face. His clothes were splattered with traces of blood, and his whole body looked very sinister. It seemed that he didn’t think about blood on himself at all, but there was still some disgust in his brow, not even the slightest fear.

He scrutinized the old man’s face, pulled his mouth down to reveal his teeth. Huang Ke’s mouth suddenly turned up at the corners as if he saw something.

Hu Bing had been standing nearby and observing him; he was sure that Huang Ke was not simple.

“Heh,” Huang Ke let out a sneer. He indifferently withdrew his hand as if he had seen something that satisfied him.

His sneer seemed to contain a thousand emotions, and Hu Bing, who was closest to him, even shivered when he heard the sneer.

However, Huang Ke’s next move was once again shocked Hu Bing.

Huang Ke leaned down and grabbed both the corpse’s arms, intending to drag it towards the doorway.

Hu Bing was startled and stopped him with his hands.

“What are you doing?”

Huang Ke swept a cold glance at Hu Bing, “Dragging the man out.”

Hu Bing stared at him with a sharp gaze.

“These corpses are delicious food in the eyes of those people. To leave them here is to lure the wolves in. They won’t be able to resist rushing in, but if we leave them outside the door, it will be to lure the snakes out of their holes, facilitating us to turn passive into being proactive!” Huang Ke’s tone was indifferent, “Not to mention, if we leave these corpses here, the corpses will still have a rotting stench. It’s not safe, and it will cause trouble.”

Hu Bing was silent for a moment and let go of his hand.

Huang Ke glanced at him, his gaze passed Hu Bing’s direction, and landed on Xiao Chen, who was sitting in the corner, unmoving. Huang Ke was stunned. His eyes instantly turned a bit shaky, as if he didn’t want to be seen the way he was now.

Hu Bing froze in place and stared at Huang Ke’s back in thought.

The old man’s corpse was dragged on the floor, making a ‘crunching’ sound. Huang Ke’s movements looked very skilled; he didn’t even pant as he pulled the corpse that was over a hundred pounds. The whole set of actions flowed smoothly and quickly, dragging one right after the other out, not even shedding a drop of sweat.

Hu Bing moved from his position.

“Thud.” Feet stepped on the ground, making a tiny sound.

Hu Bing’s figure suddenly shook and froze in place.

His face suddenly turned incomparably ugly.

Hu Bing’s eyes refocused on Huang Ke, and his fingers were trembling a little. He immediately clenched his hand into a fist to suppress his emotions.

What’s going on?! Huang Ke was such a big man, yet he walked on the ground without making any noise?

Hu Bing’s body trembled a bit, fiercely thinking of the inexplicable male voice from earlier and the strange events in this village.

His heartbeat accelerated.

Was Huang Ke a human?

He let out a deep breath.

What kind of a village is this? Why are there so many unexplained and odd points?

Villagers! That man! This Huang Ke!

Hu Bing withdrew his gaze and looked in the other direction, his expression grave.

There was also this seemingly harmless Xiao Chen!

He noticed that when the group of old people rushed in, not one of them even tried to harm Xiao Chen. They even avoided that direction, intentionally or unintentionally! It was like something terrible was standing there.

It’s too strange!

Who the hell is this Xiao Chen? What secrets does he have?

Xiao Chen had initially been staring in Huang Ke’s direction, but suddenly Tan Jun covered his eyes with his hand. He tilted his head and looked at Tan Jun with some confusion.

Tan Jun lifted his head, with the tip of his tongue pressed against the middle of his teeth, his mouth slightly open, and his nose slightly arched upwards, he didn’t look like he was pleased.

Xiao Chen stared at him, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned upward. Still, in order not to be seen by the person next to him acting strangely, he had to restrain himself. He pursed his lips, grasped the pendant with his left hand, narrowed his eyes, and muttered, “Well? Puppy, what do you want?”

Tan Jun pursed his lips, his eyes unmoving as he stared, and locked eyes with Xiao Chen.

The latter was stunned and even looked a little shy and embarrassed by him. Xiao Chen couldn’t help but curse in his heart, ‘Son of a bitch, what are you doing? Don’t look at me like that!’

Tan Jun raised his eyebrows and looked even more serious. He deliberately leaned his head closer to the other party and teasingly said, ‘I just want to look at you.’

Before Xiao Chen could answer, Tan Jun suddenly held his head and moved over to seal Xiao Chen’s lips, kissing him directly on the lips, doing it quickly, but gently, with a bit of probing and caution.

The kiss was fleeting. If it weren’t for the fact that Tan Jun had maliciously pushed the tip of his tongue against his teeth when he released his mouth, Xiao Chen would have even wondered if what had just happened was his dream.

Xiao Chen’s body was stiff, and his eyes were unblinking as if he was stupid. It was hard to wait for him to calm down, blinking frantically, feeling like his eyeballs were going to jump out in shock.

Xiao Chen even forgot to cover up. His voice was particularly small, sounding soft, with a bit of weakness and a kind of unexplainable meaning in it. And even with a bit of thin anger, “What are you doing?”

Tan Jun continued to stare at him, the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised, not feeling embarrassed at all, “Kiss you.”

Xiao Chen choked.

‘Why kiss me.’ Xiao Chen’s words weren’t considered questionable because some answers should actually be evident in his heart. Still, he just didn’t usually think about it, and he even deliberately ignored them subconsciously.

‘Because I like you.’ Tan Jun raised his eyebrows, eyes narrowed, leaned his mouth to Xiao Chen’s left ear, and uttered the words one by one.

In the whole world, I only like you.

Tan Jun released Xiao Chen, the two of them looked at each other. Tan Jun’s mouth slightly hooked upwards, revealing a curve, the position of his jawbone held up. This smile, in Xiao Chen’s eyes, was damn compelling.

Xiao Chen stared at his face for thirty seconds in silence. Neither of them spoke, and then Xiao Chen blushed rapidly at a visible rate to the naked eye.

‘You’re shy?’

‘...You shut up.’

Five corpses were neatly thrown in front of the door by Huang Ke.

When Hu Bing thought of Huang Ke’s reaction to observing the old people at that time, he felt strange and secretly thought that something was wrong. He glanced at Huang Ke, who had already entered the house, and walked straight to the door, intending to look at these old people’s corpses.

These corpses’ faces had turned pale, and their movements had been very stiff, their skin splitting open and blood flying across their flesh.

Hu Bing raised his eyebrows and stared at the corpses with a strong discomfort.

Suddenly, as if he saw something on the corpses’ faces, he immediately leaned down, and his fingers tried to open their teeth.

When he saw the old man’s teeth clearly, Hu Bing’s hand fiercely trembled.

There were fangs!

What’s going on?

Hu Bing was horrified and hurriedly reached out his hand to check the mouths of every corpse next to him, and the answers were all the same!

Hu Bing’s hands trembled a bit, swallowed his saliva, as if he had suddenly thought of something, and forcefully grabbed the old man’s hand directly.

When he saw the old man’s hand clearly, his pupils contracted sharply.

The fingernails of these corpses were very black, and there were many grime in the nails’ cracks. The shells were very hard, looking a little strange compared to ordinary people.

Hu Bing felt like there was so much information that his head was going to explode!

They definitely can’t be human!

Hu Bing was sure.

Fangs...

Are these people vampires?

No, they can’t be!

Hu Bing forced himself to calm down and took a deep breath.

Vampires only sucked blood and didn’t eat humans at all! So what could this be?

Hu Bing’s eyelids fluttered, and his body was in a stir.

The answer was breathed out.

Werewolves!

Hu Bing stood up, his legs a little numb and his head a little swollen, and he attached a stiff hand to his temple and rubbed it, his fingers clenching into a fist right after.

Werewolves means curses! They weren’t born as wolves; they were forced to turn into them! Losing your humanity! All that’s left is the violence! Think of people as food! Partying on a full moon night!

Hu Bing let out a deep breath.

He now needed to make an extremely frightening assumption. He was afraid that all the villagers in this village were werewolves! But if that’s the case, then they’re only in more danger than they thought!

Hu Bing licked his dry lips, frantically calculating the time in his head.

Today was the fourteenth day of the old calendar! The fifteenth of every month was the night of the full moon. Legend had it that once the night of the full moon arrived, the ordinary appearance of werewolves on weekdays would fade away. They would transform into werewolves and start to feed and slaughter, with brutal and bloodthirsty methods.

Hu Bing’s hands began to tremble, his mind was spinning, and he didn’t know how many thoughts had flashed through his mind.

Just at this moment, Huang Ke walked up to him. Hu Bing didn’t even hear the sound of the movement of Huang Ke walking over. When he turned back, his entire body collided directly with the walking Huang Ke!

Hu Bing was shocked.

Huang Ke remained unfazed, as if he was probing what he had found, the corners of his mouth quirked upwards, and his tone was somewhat flat, “What did you find out?”

Hu Bing’s legs trembled, in his heart, he was more or less afraid of Huang Ke, and his legs unconsciously took a few steps back to the side.

Huang Ke watched his actions, narrowing his eyes slightly, his expression very dangerous.

Hu Bing laughed out dryly and backed up towards Jin Hong’s group of people, trying to get closer to the center.

Jin Hong had already stood up, and her sharp eyes immediately saw Hu Bing’s slightly anxious and nervous movements. She immediately walked over and asked, “What’s wrong? What did you find?”

Hu Bing glanced at Huang Ke and thought, again and again, knowing that the situation was in crisis and time was not waiting, he had to speak now. Therefore, he exhaled, and his voice sounded a bit drained, “The villagers in this village are most likely all werewolves!”

“What?” Jin Hong screamed out.

Once again, her three views exploded, and she gritted her teeth in disbelief.

Everything that had happened in the last few days had challenged her worldview too much!

“How can there be werewolves in this world?!” Jin Hong couldn’t help but shake her head.

Hu Bing helplessly opened his mouth, “We’ve all been through so much, which one of these things can be explained conventionally?”

Jin Hong had nothing to say.

Even Ma Chenggong lifted his head to look at him.

“I just carefully examined their bodies, and every single one of them has fangs and even blackened nails.” Hu Bing paused, his expression struggling a bit, “Vampires only suck blood and don’t eat humans, so I judged that they could only be werewolves.”

Huang Ke suddenly raised his head and narrowed his eyes. He spoke with a careless tone and expressionlessly uttered a movie line. “Even a pure-hearted person, a person who does not forget to pray at night, will inevitably turn into a wolf on the night of the full moon when the Aconitum is in full bloom.”

Hu Bing, his face a little stiff, glanced at him and continued, “Yes, that’s right, but tomorrow is the fifteenth, the night of the full moon!”

Jin Hong was stunned, and a penetrating chill ran through her heart.

Hu Bing laughed bitterly, with some helplessness, “If we don’t save ourselves, we might actually have to leave our lives here!”

“Heh.” The Huang Ke beside him suddenly snickered out, and Hu Bing’s body trembled when he heard his laughter.

Jin Hong only felt that Huang Ke’s actions were getting stranger and stranger, but she didn’t think much about it. She wasn’t as observant as Hu Bing.

Huang Ke sneered and looked at the crowd as if hinting at something, “Do you know what werewolves are most afraid of?”

Jin Hong was stunned, then shook her head.

She didn’t know anything about these gods and monsters or anything like that.

Hu Bing heard the words, but he did not raise his eyebrows, his eyes cleared, and he replied with some excitement, “Is it silver items?!”

Jin Hong looked towards Hu Bing as if waiting for him to explain.

Hu Bing looked up to meet Jin Hong’s eyes and said, “Werewolves are very afraid of silver products. Even just the contact of the surface of their skin can cause them pain!”

He paused, his brain starting to frantically recall knowledge about werewolves, “Yes, yes!” Hu Bing was somewhat excited. “The heart is the vital part of a werewolf, but the body of a werewolf is like copper and iron. Sticking a silver knife into the heart of a werewolf is the same as sticking a fruit knife into granite or marble. The degree of damage to them is minimal.”

Jin Hong’s heart instantly tensed at the words.

“But,” Hu Bing paused and continued, “the throat is the thinnest and most critical part of a werewolf’s body.”

Hu Bing raised his eyebrows and hooked his lips, “If you can stick a silver knife into a werewolf’s throat, the werewolf will surely die!”

After Hu Bing’s words, Huang Ke stood aside and let out a sneer, attracting all the attention.

Huang Ke’s head was half bowed, and his bangs half covered his eyes, making it difficult to really see his expression with a bit of shade and secrecy.

“Could it be that you really think that a mere silver product can kill a werewolf?”

It’s time, time to catch them, heh.
