After the sound, Chen Jinghui, who had a wrinkled face and his whole body was wrapped in bark, walked in one after another with a white-haired old man who seemed to be in his nineties.
Breno had also seen the annular light curtain where Sulin was, and he also discovered the intersection between Sulin and Adeli's tree cave, so he naturally paid special attention to the person in the scene where Sulin broke through.
He knew that the old man was the cheap dad of the bride-to-be played by Adeli, that is, the old man Wang who sold the cakes.
Through the gap between Cheng Jinghui's door and the moon outside the window, Breno roughly estimated the approximate time at this moment, which should be outside midnight.
At a glance just now, Breno discovered that in addition to the two people entering the room in front of him, the area not far from the door was covered with dense black shadows, but there was no aura of life in these black shadows.
Old man Wang, who was pushed by Cheng Jinghui with a withered hand, staggered into the room.
When he saw his daughter lying covered in blood in the center of Breno's huge lotus platform, Old Man Wang's cloudy eyes suddenly burst into a burst of courage that was not afraid of death.
"Cheng Jinghui, give me back my daughter, give me my daughter!" He suddenly turned around, and his wrinkled hands tremblingly reached towards Cheng Jinghui's neck.
"Looking for death!" Cheng Jinghui raised his right hand, which was as dry as a dead tree, and smashed it straight into the old man's chest. There was a click, like a stick hitting a bone and the sound of bones breaking. The old man covered his chest. He staggered back a few steps and fell to the ground with blood in his mouth.
Old Man Wang struggled for a long time, trying to get up from the ground, but he had multiple broken ribs in his chest. He only moved slightly on the ground, and the pain caused him to frown severely, and blood bubbles popped out of his mouth. .
His breathing became more and more difficult. It seemed that when he moved just now, a rib was inserted diagonally into his lungs.
He looked up at his son-in-law Cheng Jinghui and saw that he was still smiling miserably there like a monster.
Old Man Wang suddenly laughed too. He moved his body with difficulty and crawled towards his daughter. He smiled and cried again.
He laughed that he had any hope for the young master of the Cheng family, hoping that he could make his daughter live a good life for a short time.
He cried, and he was sad. There were originally a family of three, the eldest daughter, the second daughter, and him, a lonely old man. At this age, he could have brought his children into his lap, but now, because of his obsession, his wife and children were separated.
As he crawled, there were suddenly many phantoms in front of his eyes, as if there were scenes of his eldest daughter and his second daughter playing with him when he was a child. The eldest daughter was lively and the second daughter was quiet, both of whom were the true love of his heart.
One day, his eldest daughter suddenly said to him: "Dad, you have suffered so much for me and my sister these years. If I find a husband in the future, I can't be as poor and rotten as the sisters next door. It must be able to support our family of three."
At this time, the second daughter suddenly ran out and said, "Sister, you are so shameless. How old are you? You start to miss men." As she said that, red clouds appeared on the younger sister's face, like the sunset in the sky. , exceptionally beautiful.
"What's the matter? It's normal for boys to get married when they get older and girls to get married when they get older. But my sister, you are shy when you see a boy. Hehe, I don't know if you will be able to get married in the future."
"No, no one is shy." My sister's cheeks were still flushed. "If I can't get married, I will stay at home with my father and won't go anywhere. Dad, do you agree?"
"Of course, I love my second daughter the most." Old man Wang stroked his second daughter's hair affectionately, while his eldest daughter, who was twelve or thirteen years old, sat on his left knee. That was really his happiest moment. Days passed.
But now, when he was about to get close to Adeli's body, Cheng Jinghui, who had been watching the old man crawling around from behind, suddenly kicked Old Man Wang on the back: "Tsk, tsk, you took it from me. Qian, why are you still here acting like a righteous father? If my fake dad sees it, he will be so ashamed of himself."
Hearing these words, Old Man Wang didn't know whether it was because he was angry or because he was kicked by Cheng Jinghui. When he spat out a mouthful of blood, the only light in his cloudy eyes disappeared and was replaced by blood from his body. It exuded a strong aura of death.
The moment he saw this death aura, Cheng Jinghui's face flashed with joy, and he began to mobilize the spiritual power in his body to continuously absorb the death aura from the old man.
"I really want to suck them all together, but it's a pity that you can't die yet, old man." Seeing that the old man was about to crawl to the bride-to-be, Cheng Jinghui kicked him hard in the chest again, knocking the old man's eyes out. Protruding and bleeding.
But even though he was so seriously injured, the old man still held his breath tightly in his heart and never died. His eyes were always firmly locked in the direction of his daughter.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I didn't expect it to be really lively tonight. In addition to my unsatisfactory father, there is actually a bald monk in the house. Or should I say that my fake father is your bald monk pretending to be?"
From the moment he entered the room, he discovered that besides the bride, there were other people in the room. Of course, he could not rule out that it was the fake father he had deliberately let in.
And the aura exuding from this man seems to be much higher than that of the man who appeared in the Cheng Mansion to play his father before, and is more dangerous to the Cheng Mansion. He should not be the same person.
Or maybe his fake father died in the previous game, which is unknown.
It looked like he was beating the old man just now, but it was actually a test of the bride-to-be and the half-bald monk. I believe that if these two people were on the same team, they would never allow him to hurt the old man.
But just now, he almost beat the old man to death. Not only was the bride indifferent, but the monk, who was always kind and compassionate, was also indifferent. It seemed that he was just a fake monk who didn't abide by the precepts.
At least, he can be sure of two things. First, the bride-to-be has been seriously injured and unconscious after the previous game, and can no longer pose a threat to him.
Although the main body had an accident in the game world, the lizard soul that had resided in Cheng Jinghui's body for many years had a very weak impact on the main body.
If the bride-to-be can be successfully swallowed this time, although it will no longer be possible to help the main body complete the transformation of the soul, it can at least completely help him escape the negative impact of the death of the main body.
Even if it can swallow the original body, it may be possible to directly transcend the current body form and achieve the same ability as the original body.
The hope of devouring the main body obviously lies in the two people in front of them. The second thing he was sure of was that the man in front of him seemed to be restricted by something and unable to move.
This has never happened before when the bride-to-be had to complete the task on her own.
"Amitabha, this benefactor must be the owner of the Cheng Mansion. I wonder if it would be convenient for us to leave safely."
Breno held a Buddhist gift with his left hand that was not sucked, and looked at Cheng Jinghui, who was neither human nor ghost, with red eyes and a gloomy look in front of him.
"Haha, you monk is very interesting. If you want to leave, you can leave through the door. Can I still stop you?"
Seeing that the other person still placed his right hand firmly on the bookshelf, showing no signs of retreating. Even if he took a few steps forward towards the monk, the man did not seem to deliberately retreat. Cheng Jinghui became more sure of his guess. .
He seemed to no longer care about the great monk, but walked directly in the direction of Adelie, intending to devour Adelie first, and then meet the half-bald monk who stood motionless.
Cheng Jinghui walked up to Adeli and used his withered hands to seal the bleeding hole on Adeli's body to prevent her from dying due to excessive blood loss during the devouring process.
He can only swallow the death energy, but cannot swallow the spiritual energy of the deceased. After death, the sea of consciousness will wither, and he can no longer condense and devour the soul of the other party by controlling the sea of consciousness.
Then, he found a place to sit down, and slowly took the little lizards out of his body, leaving only part of them to ensure that he could control Cheng Jinghui's body. The rest of the little lizards followed Ade's way. Li got into the hole in her body.
"Monster, monster!" Old Wang, who was kicked away by Cheng Jinghui, saw the small lizards crawling out of the opponent's body. His blood and energy surged sharply, and he almost fainted on the spot.
It was hard for him to imagine that he had given his daughter to such a monster. Originally, he only knew that Cheng Jinghui suffered from tree-man syndrome and had a certain connection with the legendary sacrificial river god, but he did not expect that the other party was also a monster. monster.
"Monster, shut up!" Seeing those little lizards crawling towards his daughter's body, old man Wang's eyes bulged with blood. He struggled to move his body and crawled for a long time, but his whole body fell apart. He didn't climb out more than ten centimeters.
During the movement, many ribs penetrated his already broken body. After seeing the lizard enter his body, his daughter's expression became more and more rugged, and the suffocation in Old Wang's chest never came up again. He was so angry that he was crawling half-bald.
It's just that his eyes, which were open and closed, were staring in the direction of his daughter and never closed again. There was only a line of crawling blood on the ground.
After feeling the breath of the dead, the densely packed figures at the front outside the door, and sensing the souls of death in the room, even without Cheng Jinghui's order, they still entered the room in twos and threes.
These dark figures entering the door are most of the people in the town who drank water from the Zimu River and were controlled by their minds, just like the father and son Su Lin met in the Ant Blacksmith Shop.
After the black shadow entered the door, it first turned around with dark eyes as thick as fog. After discovering that the master was absorbing energy, they gave up the body closest to the master and rushed directly towards the old body of Old Man Wang. past.
Then he started biting bite after bite like a mad dog. This scene shocked Breno next to him.
Soon, a strong smell of blood filled the air. Breno saw that after these black shadows devoured the old man's body, their eyes locked on him again...
"Amitabha." Immediately, Breno pulled off another handful of hair without hesitation.
