Lying on the uncomfortable wooden bed, Chen Mu tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

He had a vague feeling that something would probably happen after midnight tonight.

According to the village chief, the man-eating monster appears after midnight.

Tonight is the first night of a normal-difficulty weird mission, so Chen Mu is not too worried.

However, this strange mission was unusually difficult, with abnormalities and weirdness everywhere, which made even a veteran like Chen Mu feel unsure.

Chen Mu had no way of taking out the trillions of ghost money in his hand.

And what’s different from previous weird scenes is that even if Chen Mu had trillions of ghost money in his hand, he didn’t know who to give it to.

So far, nothing weird has happened. There are living people around. Who would accept such an unlucky thing as ghost money?

The door of the room was very simple, also made of several wooden boards nailed together horizontally.

Even though it was better than the old man's door in the woodshed, there would be no gap between the wooden boards, but the bottom and the threshold did not fit together, leaving a large gap as wide as a palm.

The winter nights are very cold. The cold wind blows in through the cracks, adding a touch of chill to the room.

As time goes by, midnight arrives!

Neither Chen Mu nor the man with glasses fell asleep, and Chen Mu believed that the other players were the same.

On the first night, before the man-eating monster appears, or before two or three in the morning, it is difficult for someone to be careless and go to sleep directly.

It's past one in the morning.

The temperature in the room was very low, and suddenly a faint sound was heard outside the door.

Chen Mu on the bed was startled. He moved his ears to make sure he had not heard wrong, and immediately turned his head to look at the door.

The man with glasses also became nervous, and he was even shaking a little under the quilt.

The atmosphere in the room grew more tense as the faint sound got closer.

Finally, the voice came to the door.

Chen Mu looked out through the crack in the door.

I saw four white legs standing in the gap.

It’s not red shoes, which means it’s most likely not a man-eating monster.

But why is it white? And it's obviously not human, it looks more like some kind of animal.

At this moment, a cat's meow was heard outside the door.

Chen Mu and the man with glasses breathed a sigh of relief.

It turned out to be the cat raised by the old man in the woodshed!

Cats are more active at night. When they are bored in the room, they run out through the crack of the door and take a walk.

As the cat walked further and further away, Chen Mu stopped paying attention to it. What he really cared about was the man-eating ghost.

Another five minutes later, suddenly, at the gate of the yard, there was a frightened "Meow--"

The cat that came out for a stroll in the middle of the night seemed to be frightened by something terrifying and whimpered threateningly.

The cat just whimpered twice. It was smart and realized the other party's horror. It immediately ran back and ran away.

Suddenly, the whole yard fell into deathly silence.

The players in several rooms were not asleep.

Everyone heard the cat's terrified cry, and they all knew that something horrible had entered the yard.

The man-eating evil spirit is finally about to appear...

A few seconds later, footsteps appeared in the yard.

This time, the footsteps were much heavier than a cat's.

Everyone could clearly hear that this was the sound of stepping on shoes.

The footsteps started from the outermost room and stopped outside the room.

Chen Mu remembered that the outermost room was where the fat man lived alone!

At this time, the fat man was probably so scared that he was about to faint.

The footsteps stopped for a moment and then moved to the next room.

Chen Mu and the man with glasses were worried again.

The next room is where Chen Mu is!

The footsteps came outside the room. Chen Muwei closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.

At the same time, he tilted his head slightly to look at the gap under the wooden door.

There, Chen Mu saw a pair of blood-red shoes!

Cannibalism is evil!

The red shoes passed through the crack in the door and passed through the door of the room.

Chen Mu thought the other party had left and wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but the footsteps suddenly stopped.

It stopped outside the wall?

No, there's a paper window!

Chen Mu realized something and cold sweat suddenly broke out on his back.

The man with glasses didn't realize it yet. He thought the man-eating ghost had left. He let out a long sigh in the quilt and even turned his head to give Chen Mu a smile as if he had survived a disaster.

Chen Mu really wanted to tell him that the man-eating ghost had not left yet.

Not only did he not leave, he also stayed at the window!

But Chen Mu didn't dare to say it. If he was discovered by the man-eating ghost and he was still awake, something terrible might happen.

Fortunately, the man with glasses was not mentally retarded and he did not speak.

Following the direction in which Chen Mutou tilted, the man with glasses also realized something belatedly and immediately fell silent.

Chen Mu heard a slight friction sound near the window.

He squinted his eyes slightly, adjusted his vision to the window, and finally saw the scene outside the window.

This glance almost sent Chen Mu away on the spot!

There was a hole in the paper-pasted window, and a bloodshot eye was looking inside through the hole.

Fortunately, Chen Mu narrowed his eyes slightly and did not look into the bloodshot eyes.

He looked inside and then moved away from the hole.

There were footsteps outside the window again, and it was obvious that the evil cannibal had left.

Chen Mu seized the opportunity, opened his eyes and looked out the window carefully.

Through the hole that had been dug, with the help of the moonlight outside, Chen Mu saw a blood-red cloth covering the cannibal's evil head.

Judging from the way it is wrapped in red cloth, it looks like a red veil!

The red shoes and red veil further confirmed Chen Mu's guess.

The true identity of the evil cannibal is related to a certain bride.

As the cannibal left, the man with glasses finally breathed a sigh of relief. He turned to Chen Mu and whispered, "Shall we go out and take a look?"

"If you are not afraid of death, then go ahead." Chen Mu replied in a low voice.

Although Chen Mu is courageous, he is by no means a reckless man.

If you rashly open the door and take a peek at the man-eating monster without knowing anything about it, that is not looking for clues, but seeking death!

The cannibal's sinister footsteps moved away, and it went to hang around the door of another player.

This night is destined to be difficult to sleep.

With the evil cannibal appearing outside the door, no one dared to sleep.

But not sleeping is not a solution either. You will feel groggy the next day and will be more likely to fall into a trap.

So, Chen Mu and the man with glasses decided to take turns to keep watch.

Chen Mu volunteered to guard the first half of the night, and asked the man with glasses to guard the second half of the night and dawn.

The man with glasses also thought that Chen Mu was a very loyal person as he took the initiative to guard the most dangerous first half of the night.

Chen Mu did not tell the man with glasses the truth. In fact, Chen Mu felt that based on his performance just now, this guy was not very reliable, so he did not dare to let him guard for half the night.

If there was any danger, the man with glasses would just scream or something and directly harm Chen Mu as well.

In comparison, it is safer in the second half of the night so the man with glasses can watch over him and Chen Mu can catch up on his sleep.
