After some pulling and pulling, Gu Yi paid all the cards and change in his hand in exchange for the slingshot.
The slingshot is so heavy that it takes a lot of effort as a child to fully stretch the rubber band.
Let alone shooting birds, this slingshot would probably be disabled if it hit someone.
Gu Yi found a deserted place, picked up gravel on the ground, and practiced for a while using cans as targets. He often played shooting games and quickly became familiar with the feel of a slingshot.
"Twenty minutes have been wasted, let's start from the beginning, load file 1."
Gu Yi has unlimited trial and error costs, so he cannot waste them.
This time, Gu Yi directly found the child holding the slingshot and got the slingshot. The whole process took no more than five minutes.
Then, he ran all the way back to the door of his villa.
At this time, there were no passers-by on the street in the villa area, and the whispering in Gu Yi's ears gradually became clearer, which meant that the monster's strength was beginning to grow.
Now is the best time to fight monsters, the longer it takes, the more trouble you will have.
Gu Yi walked to the yard and didn't rush to open the door. Instead, he walked around the villa.
All the doors and windows in the villa were closed, and even the curtains were drawn, except for the curtains at the back that were only half drawn. Gu Yi lay under the window and looked into the house cautiously.
It was dark inside.
As dead as a tomb.
Suddenly, a pair of red eyes flashed through the darkness, followed by a dark handprint that slapped on the glass.
"snort."
Gu Yi calmly took a step back, drew his slingshot and aimed at the window glass.
The monster pushed open the window and got out of the window with a hemp rope in his hand. He opened his big mouth and let out an unpleasant roar at Gu Yi.
"Gah——"
Gu Yi squinted his eyes and released the fully loaded slingshot.
The stone accurately hit the monster's throat. It dropped the hemp rope in its hand and instantly transformed into countless crows, avoiding the damage of the slingshot.
A flock of crows flew out of the villa and hovered in groups above Gu Yi's head.
Gu Yi held a slingshot in his hand, aiming at the crows in the sky and shooting randomly.
Bang bang!
Two crows were hit and fell to the ground, instantly turning into bones. The remaining crows gathered into human form again, and he squatted on the wall with resentment on his face, staring at Gu Yi.
"Gah——"
Crow looked around, as if looking for some weapon, and finally focused on the window of the villa.
"Want to come into the house?"
Gu Yi figured out the crow's intention, picked up the hemp rope on the ground, turned over into the house, and closed the window with his backhand.
thump!
The monster hit the glass with a loud bang.
"Gah——"
The monster screamed helplessly, but he was helpless holding the glass window. No matter how hard he tried, he could not open the window.
When Gu Yi saw this, he grinned.
"It turns out that the crow's body actually has no power. Even a child with a slingshot can easily knock it back to its original shape.
Without a murderous weapon, Crow couldn't even break the glass, let alone kill someone. Therefore, he must stay in the villa and find available tools before he can kill me.
That’s the crow’s secret, right? "
Gu Yi reasoned again in his mind, but the system's beep still didn't sound.
"Isn't this right? Is there any other information that I don't know?"
Gu Yi stood there and thought silently.
Click——
There was the sound of the door opening behind me.
Gu Yi's whole body tensed up. He fully loaded the slingshot and turned around to aim behind him.
Snapped--
The stones flew out and hit the person who pushed the door open.
"Ouch!"
The woman clutched her calf and cried out in pain.
Gu Yi then realized that he was in trouble and quickly put the slingshot behind him.
"Little bastard, what did you hit your mother with?"
"Mother?"
Gu Yi was stunned for a moment.
Could it be that the crow didn't enter the villa just now because mother was back?
no.
There were so many distractions that it was impossible to determine what the crow was capable of.
Gu Yi's eyes were rolling around, and the murmur in his mind gradually subsided. It seemed that the power of the crow was decreasing, and it was no longer enough to show up and kill people.
Mom had no time to pay attention to Gu Yi's expression. She glanced at her calf and saw that it had swollen into a big bulge.
"Xiao Gu! Are you playing with a slingshot?"
Mom picked up the stones on the ground and asked Gu Yi angrily.
Gu Yi didn't answer and thought silently in his mind: "Can I save it now?"
Ding dong!
Archive successful!
After Gu Yi finished filing, he felt at ease and looked up at his mother.
"Mom, someone is trying to kill me."
"Kill you? I want to kill you now." Mom opened the door and yelled angrily, "How many times have I told you not to play with these dangerous toys, why don't you listen?"
Boom!
The door panel hit the wall, making a loud noise.
Gu Yi was startled and looked out the door blankly.
There was a corpse hanging on the old locust tree next to the door. He slowly turned around with the wind, and the corpse actually had Gu Yi's face.
"Huh?"
Gu Yi was stunned for a moment and wanted to rub his eyes.
Who would have known that mom's slap would land on Gu Yi's face even faster. Gu Yi closed his eyes in pain. When he opened them again, the old locust tree in front of the door and his body were gone.
Gu Yi looked at his mother with tears in his eyes.
Mom had no intention of stopping. She snatched the slingshot from Gu Yi's hand and asked.
"Where did you get this?"
Gu Yi said nothing.
"Say it!"
His mother slapped him again, and Gu Yi cried loudly, which finally softened his mother's heart.
"This slingshot is too dangerous. Look at what you did to my mother."
"Mom, I'm scared."
"Fear?"
"There was a monster in the house, a black monster. He was like a crow and wanted to strangle me. I defeated him with a slingshot."
"Do you have a fever?" Mom was startled and reached out to touch Gu Yi's forehead, "Did you not wake up and mistake the dream for reality?"
"Mom, it's true."
"Okay, let me sleep with you tonight, okay?"
Mom patted Gu Yi's head gently, looking loving.
"This woman can't help at all." Gu Yi thought bitterly, but he still had no choice but to play the role of a good son and nodded obediently.
"Good son, you go to your room and stay there. Mom will go cook and come back to you later."
"Uh-huh."
Gu Yi turned around and ran upstairs. He lay on his bed and thought carefully about the battle just now.
The crow is definitely still alive, it's just gone temporarily.
At present, it seems that Crow can only kill people when there is no one else around. This is the only weakness that he can exploit at the moment.
In addition, the crow's power does not seem to increase near the villa, nor does it use the time-stopping skill.
It seems that when I escaped to the supermarket last time, the system forcibly strengthened the monster's abilities to prevent me from running out of the map.
Therefore, he can find a way to defeat the crow near the villa.
"Hey!"
Gu Yi turned over and jumped out of bed.
This villa is so big, there must be other clues.
Gu Yi walked out of the bedroom and came to the corridor.
Downstairs is the living room, bathroom, kitchen and two guest rooms. Such a large house is clean, which shows that the protagonist's mother is a very hard-working woman.
"My mother was wearing a suit when she came in just now. If she were a housewife, she wouldn't go out to buy groceries in a suit, right? Does she work and do housework at the same time? Where is the protagonist's father?"
Gu Yi shook his head, turned around and groped around on the second floor.
There are three rooms on the second floor.
Next to my bedroom should be my mother's bedroom. Like downstairs, my mother's bedroom is neat and clean.
The cosmetics on the dressing table are all famous brands, but they are not affordable for ordinary working-class families.
"It's so rich."
Gu Yi didn't find any valuable clues in his mother's bedroom, so he left the room and went to the third room at the end of the corridor.
Click——
Gu Yi turned the handle, only to find that the door was locked. He glanced at the keyhole. It was a tumbler lock, the most common type of lock cylinder. As long as he had a paper clip, he could easily pick the door lock.
"Xiao Gu, what are you doing?"
His mother shouted loudly, which scared Gu Yi and stood up straight.
