Wang Xiaocao's Fast Travel

Chapter 290 From Survival in a Thatched Hut to Natural Disaster Game 12

"Not good! Not good!"

The locals who received the notification from outsiders were undecided and had to come to the elders in charge. Coincidentally, several important figures gathered together to discuss the matter of finding someone.

After the leader consulted the old man, he led his men to search the town again at daybreak, leaving no corner untouched, but still couldn't find the person. Now, everyone was basically certain that the person must have been hiding in the air-raid shelter.

Everyone had always been very secretive about that place and didn't want to mention it, but this time they had to face it. So, when he came to report the abnormality of the outsiders, the situation seemed much more complicated.

"The news leaked!"

The old man's face looked heavy, and no one knew what he was thinking about, but the murderous intent in his eyes could no longer be hidden.

"This matter concerns the safety of our entire village... town. We'd rather kill the wrong person than let him go. Do you understand?"

"But...but, uncle, things shouldn't...be so serious, right?" Several younger ones said tremblingly. They had never had blood on their hands, so it was normal for them to be afraid.

"Have you forgotten? How our town was built? Once this secret is leaked, none of us can escape." This is not the first time the old people have experienced this kind of thing. One wrong step leads to another, and there is no turning back.

"Uncle, I'll listen to you." The leader expressed his attitude directly, and the others didn't say anything more, which was regarded as their tacit agreement.

The locals were plotting something, and a storm was about to come. Their first target, the outsiders, were still unaware of the situation at the moment and were busy packing up their belongings and gathering in the air-raid shelter.

Who knew that the natural disaster that was feared at the beginning had not come first, but the locals' machetes arrived first. They did not give the outsiders a chance to explain, and killed anyone they saw. In a short time, the whole town was stained with blood. Until the day they died, the outsiders did not know why they were massacred.

What a sin! Some people with conscience prayed silently, hoping that all this would stop immediately, but unfortunately, the arrow had already been shot and there was no room for it to turn back.

The local women covered their children's ears and hid at home with the windows and doors closed. They were the insiders and the beneficiaries, but they just didn't take any action.

No one in the town is innocent, from inside to outside, from top to bottom.

On the other hand, Wang Xiaocao still knew nothing. She had no idea when the people from the town would come looking for her, so she didn't dare to leave the air-raid shelter.

Through the window of the air-raid shelter, she saw that the weather had changed again and lightning and thunder began to appear.

Is this? A prelude to the coming catastrophe?

Suddenly, in addition to the occasional thunder, she seemed to hear other sounds.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak..." What is this? The sound was getting closer and closer, and more and more, until those things appeared in her sight. Wang Xiaocao's eyes widened instantly and she took two steps back.

Rats! Lots of rats!

Wang Xiaocao remembered what the vendors had said about the scene of rats running away en masse. It turned out that the rats were hiding here and had not left far away.

So, what are they doing? Parading them through the streets?

The outside of the air-raid shelter was densely packed with rats, some of which were clinging directly to the windows, and even stared at her from a distance. They seemed to want to come in, but they were helpless and their efforts were in vain.

As the rainstorm came, they stopped, scattered, and hid in the dilapidated old houses nearby.

It was raining heavily, and the wind and rain were strong. If the rats were gone, there would be other things coming. Wang Xiaocao reinforced the door of the air-raid shelter. Although the effect was not great, it gave him peace of mind.

Fortunately, such a strong storm blocked a lot of things, and those crazy locals were one of them. In addition to the fear of this place, the storm came at the right time, and the locals who had finally overcome the difficulties in their hearts were once again reduced.

"Uncle, look at the strong wind and heavy rain. Let's not talk about us young people. You are too old to be safe. Should we wait a little longer?"

Yes, after discussing for a long time, the locals finally led the way with the elders, heading to this place they had not set foot on for decades. Did they not want to? They did not dare.

It's the kind of thing that makes people unwilling to return here even if they know there are good things buried here.

They tried to bury those memories and treasures here, unwilling to touch them, year after year. Until the arrival of outsiders, breaking the so-called peace, for this secret, they did not even ask right and wrong, and would rather kill the wrong person than let anyone go.
