Chapter 655
Many people in the village heard Bai Meixi's cry, but everyone believed Wu Qin's rumors, thinking that Bai Meixi was locked in the attic because of hysteria, and ignored her warning.

Fortunately, the people who got married did not seal up the windows of Bai Meixi's attic. Her windows were very high and difficult to construct, so they could only be constructed from inside the attic. But her place was a forbidden place for getting married, and no one wanted to take the risk.

This result made Bai Meixi relieved. She kept the attic window open and waited for Jiu Sheng to come back.

When it was getting dark, the tree outside the window finally started to move. Jiu Sheng climbed up as nimbly as a kitten and got into Bai Meixi's house with a slight jump.

"Where have you been and why did you come back? You're worried about me!" Bai Meixi hugged Jiu Sheng in her arms. There was already a large amount of cold air in the cotton-padded jacket on his body, making his body temperature extremely cold. .

"Sister, I'm fine. I didn't want others to see me coming to your place, so I waited until this moment on purpose." Jiu Sheng is well-behaved and sensible. He knows that he is now the target of public criticism in the village, so he has been hiding in order to avoid hurting Bai Meixi. In the dark, he waited until everyone in the village went home before climbing to the attic.

Bai Meixi didn't speak. She took Jiu Sheng directly back to the space. Only in this room could she feel safe.

"Sister, it's so nice here, it's very warm." Jiu Sheng has a strong ability to adapt. He no longer had the fear of yesterday. As soon as he entered the door, he went to the bathroom and took a hot shower, then changed into the big work clothes, and quietly Stay quietly under the quilt.

Bai Meixi went to the kitchen to get food. Today, Aunt Liu made chestnut stewed pork. The alluring fragrance could be smelled from afar. When Jiu Sheng saw the big bowl of pork, he kept swallowing his saliva and eyes. Staring straight.

"Eat quickly, you don't have to worry about eating and drinking here." Bai Meixi served Jiu Sheng a large bowl of rice, filling his long-empty stomach.

Jiu Sheng had not seen so much meat in a bowl for a long time. He picked up his rice bowl and wolfed it down, finishing the bowl of meat in a short time.

"Jiu Sheng, from now on, you can't leave this place. You can only go back when the big insect is caught." Bai Meixi was originally worried that the villagers would be suspicious of Jiu Sheng's sudden disappearance, but now it seems that this worry It's completely redundant. Everyone has too much time to take care of themselves now. Only she will care whether Jiu Sheng is alive or dead.

"Sister, you don't have to worry about me. I've seen big insects on the mountain before, and they won't eat me." Jiu Sheng looked unconcerned. He didn't think tigers were more terrifying than humans. When he was looking for something to eat on the mountain before, I once saw a big insect from a distance. At that distance, it could definitely rush over and kill him, but the big insect did nothing and left with a rabbit in its mouth.

Jiu Sheng felt that the big insect was very good and would not attack humans easily. Otherwise, it would have eaten him that day, and it would definitely be easier to fill its stomach than the rabbit.

"You mean that big bug has been living around the village for a long time?" Bai Meixi was very surprised when she heard the news. She originally thought that the big bug came here, but she didn't expect that it was a permanent resident here. Then The village chief's suspicion was not unreasonable. There was probably more than one big insect, but a whole family living nearby.

If the big bug on the mountain is a family, the people in the village have no chance of winning, and the result of a head-on confrontation can only be widespread casualties.

"Sister, I think it's just hungry and can't find anything to eat in the mountains. That's why it attacks livestock. It won't harm people." Jiu Sheng was full of sympathy for the big insect. He didn't want it to starve to death in the mountains, let alone let it die. The people in the village killed it.

"Don't worry, the big insect is the most ferocious beast in the world. It will find a way to survive. If we don't have food in this village, there will be food in other places." Bai Meixi comforted Jiu Sheng. This night she She stayed in the space with him, but she stayed up all night and kept observing the situation in the village.

The situation of starting a family was a comfort, and there was no sound in the yard all night, but something big happened at the east end of the village. The big insect couldn't find livestock to feed its belly, and it actually started to pick at the doors and windows of the residents. Some people's windows were not tightly sealed. , I was really knocked away by that big insect.

"Come quickly, the tiger is eating people!"

The screams alarmed the whole village. When everyone rushed over with tools and torches, the big insect had already left. The property damage this time was not serious, only two chickens were lost, but the family was frightened, especially It was the old lady at home who was directly frightened and had a recurrence of epilepsy. After she woke up, she started talking crazy. Even the barefoot doctor at the health center had no choice but to send her to the hospital in the town for treatment.

But her son fell hard when the big bug came, his tail bone was broken, and his lumbar spine was hit. Now he can only lie on the bed and groan. He has no strength to send the old lady to the hospital, so he can only use it temporarily. The old lady was tied up with a rope and let the people in the village take care of her temporarily.

"Village Chief, this won't work. That big bug has started to hurt people now, and it will definitely come again tonight." The young people in the village are full of enthusiasm and want to go to the mountains to catch the big bug. If this scourge is not eliminated, The people in the village will never have peace.

The village chief also felt that this matter was urgent. After all, the police force in the town was limited, and a large-scale manhunt would have to rely on the concerted efforts of the people in the village.

The village chief began to gather people from each household. Anyone who was willing to go up the mountain to catch the big bugs would put a fingerprint behind their name.

This is a very dangerous thing. According to the old rules in the village, each family only needs one strong man. If an accident occurs, there will still be someone at home to take care of him.

Mr. Cheng had experience in catching big bugs before, so he had to go to battle in person. According to the rules, the two sons of the Cheng family did not have to go. However, the eldest son of the Cheng family was worried about Mr. Cheng's safety and insisted on going together so that he could be taken care of when the time came.

"Dad, I'd better go with you. I'm strong and can carry you on my back!" Although Cheng Haiqiang has his own little plans, he is not careless about Xiaoyi at all and will never do anything when in danger. Watching his father in danger.

Mr. Cheng also felt that it was more appropriate for Cheng Hai to go. After all, he was young and tall, and could run faster than others even if he encountered a big insect.

"Then it's settled, let Hai..." Mr. Cheng was about to speak when Wu Qin suddenly started to squeal while holding her stomach.

"Mom, I have a stomachache. Maybe I was scared today. Hai Qiang, help me back. Oops, the baby is going to be born early." Wu Qin pinched Cheng Haiqiang's lower back hard. She asked him to cooperate with her in acting. This kind of life-threatening matter must not be spread on her own family members.
