However, since it has the effect of stopping time, I am naturally not in a hurry.
Xie Chen walked forward little by little, passing through the grass that was almost up to his waist, appearing unhurried.
But in fact, more energy is placed on the areas passing by.
I am afraid that I have missed some places.
The footprints only appeared in the rear. Because the front was covered by weeds, the traces of the footprints could not be seen clearly.
So there is no way to determine whether the footprints will eventually continue to move forward, or whether they will turn somewhere?
Although weeds cannot leave traces of footprints, there is no way to cover up the traces of people walking on them.
Although there is dense grass in front, the grass in that area is obviously lower than the surrounding area, which can be seen.
I walked along the fallen grass and soon came to the tree in front.
There were only a few figures standing in front, and two of them looked in the direction where they had just kicked the wall.
At that time, I had already disabled the function of my pocket watch, so everyone here could hear the sound of kicking the wall.
Xie Chen did not move forward in a hurry, but stood there and counted the heads gently with his fingers.
Including the one squatting on the ground, there are four people in total.
Xie Chen quickly moved forward and came to the surroundings of these four people.
The two of them looked in the direction in which they entered the area, with no expression on their faces and no emotion at all.
The other one was standing and the other was squatting, and nothing could be seen on their faces. The four of them seemed to have facial paralysis, and no emotion could be detected from their bodies.
This is something you only need to stand next to to experience.
Xie Chen looked down, where the four people were surrounding, and there was a foam box with "river shrimp" written on it.
But what surprised me was that there was nothing inside. The entire foam box was extremely clean, as if it was brand new.
This was not right at all, because when he was outside, he saw one of them taking something out from inside.
Now it is empty, which is a strange thing no matter how you think about it...
Xie Chen picked up the foam box after joking, but as soon as he lifted it halfway, he found that it was extremely heavy. It was not the weight of a normal foam box at all.
Xie Chen frowned, and had no choice but to pull it up with both hands, and then reluctantly picked up the foam box.
It's like it was filled with cement, and it didn't even move when I pulled it with one hand at first.
Xie Chen looked at the guys next to him, all of them still maintained their original postures.
But I felt something was wrong.
When the foam box was removed, Xie Chen could clearly see the area below. The soil had become very loose, as if it had just been pressed down.
It was obvious that the soil had just been dug up, but it had been filled back in again.
Naturally, it was these four people around me, but what was the purpose of digging up all this soil?
"Could it be that you want to buy something?"
He muttered to himself.
This is also the most likely thing. After all, there is such a heavy foam box on top, so this thing is already particularly strange.
Xie Chen looked around at the toy, and everyone got kicked in the face.
The four people who were still maintaining their respective postures were all lying on the ground in different postures after being kicked by Xie Chen.
Xie Chen picked up the foam box in his hand with all his strength and threw it heavily on the leg of the person next to him.
There was only a click, and blood flowed down from the man's leg.
The area of the calf that was hit by the foam box was also dented, and the bones were obviously broken.
You must know that this foam box belongs to me. I had to hold it in until my face turned red before I could move it. However, if it was smashed into my chest like this, no one with a normal physique could bear it.
These guys don't look like normal people, so naturally I have no reason to hold back.
After moving back and forth four times, the guys lying on the ground each had a broken leg.
Xie Chen was so tired that he was sweating profusely, so he threw the foam box aside and then came to the place where the soil was loose.
After grabbing a discarded branch nearby, Xie Chen squatted on the ground and dug.
As he dug bit by bit, an unpleasant smell emerged from the churning soil.
The smell of decay, mixed with the smell of damp earth, and a little bit of blood, all poured into his nostrils.
But no matter what, after smelling these strange smells so many times, even if I can bear it a little, my body will still have some adverse reactions.
Xie Chen pulled up his clothes a little to cover his mouth and nose, and then worked hard to dig into the ground.
Some of the caked soil was dug out by himself, but by comparison, it was buried in the lower area.
After digging out the soil, there was even a lot of white stuff mixed in it.
Just by looking at them you can tell they are obviously maggots.
After seeing this thing, Xie Chen could already guess what was buried underneath even if he didn't continue to dig deeper.
But to put it bluntly, it was for verification, to get the truth, that I even cut off the thicker branch in my hand.
But fortunately it is long enough, and the broken place is also in the middle of the branch. Just hold it with both hands and get two tools, which also improves the efficiency a little.
After a while, all the soil in the area in front of him was dug out by himself.
What came into view was a thigh that was covered in mud and had many insect repellents crawling on the surface.
Xie Chen's pupils were just a little trembling, and he couldn't calm down for a long time when he looked at the leg in front of him.
Just from the shoes on this leg, I have already recognized the photo that the netizen "q" sent me in the social software of my computer when I was at home alone.
This is indeed the child's thigh.
If we calculate from the time point of view, this is also the time when maggots appear in the rot, so everything really matches up.
He hadn't even gone to Big Ben yet. Could it be that he had arrived at his lair unknowingly?
Xie Chen's head was very messy right now. He felt that the scene in front of him was a bit indescribable, and his thoughts couldn't keep up.
If this is the lair, then where is the unknown humanoid creature?
He didn't even see anyone. The guy around him had his legs broken, let alone that unknown humanoid creature.
Otherwise, when I was squatting at the door of the shop and pretending to look at the fishing rod, I would have already started to do it to myself.
But now these guys are not only hiding from him, they even seem to be handling these stolen goods behind his back.
It’s really hard for me to understand, what does this mean?
Is it possible that these guys are really part of the unknown humanoid creature as thought?
It's not that it's impossible, but the more I think about it, the more outrageous it seems.
If that's the case, why doesn't that thing just take action?
Wouldn't it be more numb?
Even if it’s all solved in one go, why do we need so many twists and turns?
Xie Chen resisted his nausea and stood up slowly. Because this leg was rotten, and because he was digging the soil with a branch just now, it was inevitable that he would poke it several times.
The juicey liquid inside spread out from the hole he poked, looking particularly disgusting.
Xie Chen took two steps back, not wanting to pull the thing out.
But these two movies that I had just quit, my heels stepped on something...
At first, he thought it was the guy's leg, but when he looked down, he found a hand full of mud holding his heel.
Xie Chen had goosebumps all over his body.
Only then did he come back to his senses. When he pressed the pocket watch before, plus the fact that the leg had just been dug out, ten minutes had already passed.
But this was a guy who had his leg broken by himself, and he didn't even let out a scream last year.
Xie Chen just wanted to lift his feet, but Guang's hand holding his heels was very strong. Even if he tried hard to lift his feet, the effect was minimal.
There was no way he could pull this thing that only held his heel with one hand.
Xiechen quickly turned around and kicked the guy's head hard, then pressed down with such force that he drove the guy's head into the soil, and they had a close contact. .
But the effect was minimal, as if it had no effect on this person at all.
If this thing was the only thing grabbing his hand, it wouldn't be too important. The main thing was that the three guys next to him whose legs were broken by him also crawled towards him little by little.
One can handle it, but if there are three, the situation will be completely different.
After Xiechen kicked the thing's face into the soft soil under his feet, he reached into his pocket without hesitation, ready to take out the pocket watch.
But the speed slowed down by half a beat. The guy who was closer to him on the side threw his hands towards the other leg he had freed up.
After being pulled, he quickly lost his balance and stumbled.
In this situation, if you want to stabilize your body's balance, you have to stick both hands out. Now that one of the hands is still in the pocket, it is even more difficult to maintain balance.
Xie Chen leaned slightly to the left, trying to stabilize his whole body, but now it had become a luxury.
Before he even took the pocket watch out of his pocket, the guy on the left pulled him with his hand, and he fell down immediately.
Even with only one hand to hold it up, there was no way to hold it up on the ground behind.
If he had fallen forward, there would have been a solution, but now that he was leaning to the left and back, he could only subconsciously protect his head with his hands.
Xie Chen quickly adjusted in mid-air, but he fell to the ground very quickly. When he came into close contact with the ground, he couldn't help but groan.
A sharp pain came from my back and arms. Especially when the back of his hand hit a stone on the ground.
The severe pain made him tremble all over. It didn't matter that he fell to the ground from standing. It didn't matter that his hand was hit by a stone on the ground. The most uncomfortable thing was that his whole body weight was still pressing down on him.
Xie Chen didn't even have time to respond. The severe pain from the back of his hand occupied his brain immediately. Even if he knew that the situation was critical, his brain could not issue an order immediately.
There was a thing next to him, and they were all crawling towards him, and their speed was getting faster and faster.
He endured the severe pain and rolled around on the ground. One of the people who came after him had already put his hand on his shoulder and pulled hard to the side.
Xie Chen knew in his heart that these guys next to him were harmful to him, and they were even so close, but his body still couldn't bear it.
One of them fell hard on his legs, and all the weight on his body was pressed down. Even if he wanted to lift his feet, it became very difficult.
Xie Chen pushed his feet forward hard, relying on this movement to vent the pain in his body.
After all, the strengthening effect of the body was still there, and when the thing on the side couldn't hold down his legs, he started fluttering again, trying to gain more upper hand.
But he caught the gap and kicked the guy hard on the chest, sending him flying out and even rolling back and forth twice on the ground.
With those broken legs alone, even if you want to climb back up, it will take a very long time.
The four troubles have now become three. Even with all his limbs restricted, he managed to free up one leg.
The pain subsided a little, and Xie Chen quickly used his free leg to kick the guy on the side on the head.
I have become somewhat indifferent to the environment I am in now.
The shirt he was wearing had several holes torn out, and there were many scratches on his chest and shoulders.
There was also a large bruise on the back of the hand that had been knocked on the stone. It was not yet known whether the bones were broken or not.
Xie Chen struggled hard, and soon one of them was kicked in the face by himself, and then he threw a dog on the ground to eat shit.
After getting rid of the two things restricting his feet below, he struggled more frequently, which made the two things holding his hands next to him gradually become unbearable.
Seizing this gap, Xie Chen quickly put his hand in the pocket of the magic mirror, quickly held the pocket watch in his hand, and pressed the button twice.
The time around him immediately stopped, and he tried hard to adapt to the discomfort in his body.
Fortunately, this does not take too much time. During the struggle just now, the adrenaline that increased at an alarming rate has helped him adapt to his current physical condition.
Xie Chen couldn't help but spit on the ground on the side, and then struggled to get up.
But the thing next to him still grabbed his two hands, and one of them had his eyes wide open, as if he was grinning at him.
Xie Chen pulled hard on his left hand and then pulled his hand out.
