Chapter 168: Ghost Possessed(2/2)
As described above, James is currently chasing hard with a shotgun on his back, shouting at the big dog in front of him, and running in the wind and snow to catch up. His footsteps make a crunching sound on the snow, and then he runs further and further away from the farm as time goes by.
Far.
(Fake Squid!)
As the saying goes, a person's patience has its limit after all. After running about 800 meters, James suddenly became angry when he saw the big dog still chasing the air. The fat man became more and more angry as he thought about it. It was not his fault that he was angry. After all, he ran away.
After a long time, he could see that the dog was running blindly from beginning to end. As for the fox and coyote that he had guessed earlier, he couldn't stop running.
There was no shadow at all. Fortunately, he was still carrying a shotgun to be on guard, but he was just walking with the dog? Of course, the real reason why James was angry that he was deceived by the dog was partly because of his body shape. As a fat man of nearly 200 pounds
, being able to run nearly a thousand meters on foot in one breath is not considered a long distance, so...
"Whoop, whoop, whoop! Creton, you really deserve a beating!"
"Okay, you win. I admit that two legs can't catch up with four legs. If that's the case, then you can continue running blindly. The premise is that you don't freeze to death outside." Facing the wind and snow, when the big dog confirmed
After getting nervous for no apparent reason, James stopped running. Feeling exhausted, he stopped and took a deep breath, cursing as he breathed.
After taking a few breaths to adjust my mentality, I turned around helplessly and wanted to leave, but...
Just when the middle-aged fat man was about to give up chasing the dog and return to the farm, he saw something out of the corner of his eye and discovered something. He discovered that a hundred meters ahead, the German Shepherd dog that had been running and barking stopped.
, and stopped under a big tree.
It was a lone tree on the plains, standing alone in the plains. Since there was only one tree within a few miles, this tree became an excellent coordinate. At least James, who had lived here for many years, was familiar with this tree.
When I usually go to and from town to deliver goods, I often see big trees in front of me.
At this moment, the German Shepherd happened to be parked under the tree. The only strange thing was that although the dog ran under the tree and stopped running, it was still barking, still raising its forward reach and looking up from time to time in the way of chasing prey, and kept raising its head and yelling.
, as if there is something on the tree that frequently attracts the big dog below.
"Huh?"
Curiosity is human nature, especially when faced with unknown situations, human curiosity becomes more and more intense, which leads to the subconscious desire to explore to the end. The worst is to see with your own eyes what exactly happened. As just mentioned, James
He was indeed very tired at the moment, but he was even more curious about what his big dog was doing, or what was being chased by the dog.
What exactly is it? Even though he was sure it was air at first, but after seeing the big dog's impatient state that it stopped running and looked up at the top of the tree, finally, in order not to run in vain, and to find out the truth, he finally decided to
Out of curiosity, James gave up and continued to move forward, heading straight towards the big dog and the familiar big tree that was only a hundred meters away.
Squeak, squeak, squeak.
Trampling on the snow on the ground, with a soft creaking sound, the fat man soon reached the finish line and walked to the tree where his big dog was.
"Fake Squid, shut up Clydon, stop barking."
Sure enough, as soon as he arrived under the tree with his fat body shaking, James, who was filled with anger, held down the dog's head and scolded him seriously. If it wasn't for the fact that he was raised by his family and couldn't bear it, otherwise he would definitely give him a lesson with fists and kicks. Of course, it wouldn't be a lesson.
The key point, the key point, is that the dog paid no attention to it and actually kept raising its head and barking even when its owner was close by. It faced the top of the tree and screamed desperately from beginning to end.
Seeing this, James became even more confused, and his long-standing curiosity doubled again. In order to find out the truth, how could Fatty hold back? He pushed the big dog away and looked up, imitating the German shepherd's approach to looking up at the big dog.
Above the tree, then...
He saw legs, a pair of human calves.
No, it's not just a human leg, to be precise, it should be a person.
At this moment, under the gaze of James' eyes that suddenly widened due to the sudden sight of his legs, he looked up and saw a person, a man, floating in the sky on the top of the tree!
Yes, it is indeed a man. The evidence comes from the other party's attire. They are a pair of feet wearing men's leather shoes. The upper part is connected to the waistband of trousers representing the lower body. Only the upper body is hidden in the tree branches. I don't know if it is a coincidence or intentional.
Then, just when James looked up and discovered
When he squared his legs, the man who was originally suspended in the air with only his lower body sticking out of the branch also slowly descended. Under the gaze of the fat man's increasingly pale and trembling face, he descended quietly and slowly, and then exposed his abdomen, chest, and neck.
, until the head is revealed and the face is revealed.
But……
As the man revealed his full face, as an observer, James' eyes bulged out and his mouth opened wide after seeing the man's appearance clearly. In addition to his whole face looking pale with fear, his plump body was shaking crazily and uncontrollably at this moment!
The fat man was frightened to death, stunned, and so frightened that he was frozen on the spot and had no reaction at all. Because the scene in front of him was so terrifying, James couldn't even scream. His only reaction was horror, and his biggest movement was trembling.
What scares James like this?
The answer is the face, the true appearance of the suspended man.
Looking closely, the first thing that catches the eye is a strange face, a terrifying face that seems to be made up of two different faces!
The face on the left side tends to be normal. Except for the pale complexion, it is basically a human face. And this face is somewhat similar, as if it has been seen before. In the memory, it should belong to a certain oriental man, one of several agricultural experts who came here recently.
One, an Oriental man named Peng Yuxiang.
It's a pity that only half of Peng Yuxiang's face is located on the left side of the face. As for the right side...
blank.
There is nothing, it is absolutely pure white with no eyes, no mouth, not even ears or hair. Only the vague outline of the face proves that it is also a face, but it is a pure white face without facial features!
At this moment, with the cold wind howling and mixed with snowflakes, this strange man with two faces descended slowly and quietly, leaving the tree and reaching the ground as James's eyes widened as he watched, until he was face to face.
The way stood in front of the fat man.
"Ah, ah...ah...ah..."
Due to excessive fear, James was completely sluggish. His mind went blank and his whole body was shaking wildly under the unprecedented fear. His mouth, as wide as a bowl, could only whimper and nothing else, and then let out bursts of meaningless moans and sorrows.
After looking at each other for a moment, Peng Yuxiang smiled, half of his normal pale face just cracked at the corners of his mouth after staring at the reaction of the fat man in front of him, and then, a sudden change occurred!
Whoosh!
Peng Yuxiang disappeared. No, he didn't disappear. Instead, his body twisted into a long strip the next second he revealed his ferocious snicker. Then he circled and flew in the air like a life-threatening snake. Finally, before James had time to say something,
The scream entered the mouth in an instant, and went straight into the fat man's mouth with a hurricane speed that was too fast to catch. From then on, there was no trace of his body.
