Chapter 27: The Cat's Eyes

"Boom!" Lightning drew a dazzling line in the sky, bringing a roar of thunder.

"Crack! Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop!..."

"Huh..." Su Bai's rain boots stepped on the muddy ground, walking with difficulty, and every time he put his feet into the mud, there would be a strange sound.

He let out a soft breath.

Because it is autumn now, and here is a place with high altitude, the temperature is very low at night.

So the breath he exhaled was clearly visible under the light of the flashlight.

Looking at the muddy roads around, Su Bai felt very helpless. After this rainy day, the roads in this countryside are not easy to walk at all.

The road is full of mud, and there are pits every time you step on it.

Now, his raincoat was covered with muddy water.

However, when Su Bai looked at the two-story wooden building in front, he had a relaxed look on his face.

He has reached his destination.

This wooden building is the family that raised the big sow.

Su Bai had already thought about it before, the pig ate the child, there might be some remains.

Perhaps, if he found the remaining corpse, he would be considered to have completed the task.

This was the only way he could think of to accomplish this task.

Otherwise, unless he travels through time and space, it is impossible to complete this task.

Walking to the door of this wooden building, Su Bai wiped off the mud attached to the rain boots on the edge of the stone.

This kind of soil is too much, if you don't deal with it, it will be a bit strenuous to walk.

After wiping away the dirt, Su Bai sat on the threshold.

After walking for so long, there is finally a place where he can hide from the rain, and he can breathe a sigh of relief.

After resting for a while, Su Bai turned his head and looked into the room with thoughtful eyes.

The door of the house was thrown wide open, and it was pitch black inside.

After the accident, the family left here and went down the mountain.

That's why the family escaped a catastrophe.

Because Peng Nianci has been here countless times these days, and the lock on the wooden door was also broken by Peng Nianci.

If this family is still here, they are probably dead.

Then, Su Bai looked at the open space in front of the door, with a wry smile on his face.

This open space is where the pigs ate people. If it was noon today, there would be bloodstains and the like, which can be used to find the wreckage.

But now after such a heavy rain, where is there any clue.

Su Bai sighed lightly, it seems that this mission might fail.

At this time, the sound of the rain around gradually stopped, and the heavy rain became fine drizzle.

Seeing that there was less rain, Su Bai stood up and went into the open space to search.

Although he felt that the hope of completing this task was very slim, he still wanted to try.

However, Su Bai wandered around the open space several times, searching inch by inch, but when he couldn't find any traces, he had already given up thinking about completing this task in his heart.

He shook his head, ready to leave here.

"Huh, huh, huh..." But at this moment, the sound of water came to his ears.

Su Bai was stunned, and walked towards the place where the sound of water was, but saw a river more than four meters wide under the clearing.

He also knew this river, and had seen it from Peng Nianci's memory. .

This is a small river that runs through the entire village, usually only one meter wide, and people nearby often use the water here to wash their clothes.

But now because of the heavy rain, it has skyrocketed a lot, submerging the previous land position.

However, what caught Su Bai's attention at this time was that there was a white thing hanging on a small tree next to the slope on the side of the stream.

It was... a hand, a very small, very small hand.

only,

Soaked and rotted by the rain, the five fingers of this palm are bent and bulging, like a fruit.

"Huh..." When Su Bai saw this thing, he also knew that he had found what he was looking for.

This is probably because the pig was thrown here when it ate the child.

With the height difference, it is entirely possible.

However, at this moment, Su Bai didn't feel any joy in his heart.

Because, this small palm in front of me means the passing of a small life.

"If only Peng Nianci took care of the child more...if this family took care of the pig..." Su Bai murmured, if this was the case, this tragedy would not have happened.

He sighed softly and shook his head. The tragedy has already happened, and it is useless to think about it.

Afterwards, Su Bai walked down the steps on the ground.

When he got to the river, Su Bai found another problem.

The river is now almost four meters wide, and the current is fast. If he goes into the water, he will probably be washed away by the fast river.

But where the palm was, it was on a soil slope at a right angle of 90 degrees, and there was no place to exert force at all.

Seeing this scene, Su Bai stood there for a while, then took off the raincoat from his body, and took the claw hammer from his leg.

Then with a thought in his mind, the black magic iron on the claw hammer squirmed towards the 'horn' part of the claw hammer.

But after a while, the horn gradually formed a long, sharp awl shape.

After finishing these, Su Bai took a few steps back.

Immediately afterwards, he slammed his feet hard, reached the edge of the stream, and jumped into the air.

"Pfft!" The sharp point of the claw hammer plunged into the soil slope, and at this moment, the pale palm was about to fall under the force.

At this time, a hand firmly grasped the small palm.

At the same time, a message appeared in Su Bai's mind.

Mission accomplished!

"Whew..." Su Bai panted, looking at the rushing river below, his mood was not relaxed at all.

After jumping over now, he found that the slope was not stable at all, and it might slide at any time.

If it weren't for his agility and parkour now, and his precise grasp of strength, he would have fallen into the river long ago.

The most important thing now is how to go back.

Otherwise, sooner or later it will fall into the river and be washed away by the river.

There are many rivers in this mountainous area, like waterfalls.

Su Bai grabbed the palm of his hand, first lightly tossed it, and threw the palm to the opposite side.

Then his hand slowly inserted into the soil slope to make himself more stable in the soil slope.

After doing this, he began to climb up little by little.

As he crawled, stones and the like fell into the river from time to time and were washed away by the rushing river.

But Su Bai's expression didn't change at all.

After a while, he finally climbed up the slope.

Sitting on the soil slope, Su Bai exhaled lightly, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

This kind of thing is not easier than fighting to the death.

Then, he stood up, took a few steps back, and jumped suddenly.

"Pfft!" Muddy water splashed on the ground, and Su Bai landed lightly on the ground.

With parkour skills, this kind of landing is very easy to do.

I have to say that this parkour skill ability is definitely a very good ability. In the future, when encountering enemies that cannot be defeated, it will be much more convenient to escape.

Su Bai put on his raincoat, picked up the palm, and walked towards it.

Today's luck is considered good. If he came later, the palm of his hand might be washed away by the water.

However, to Su Bai's surprise, he only got a part of the corpse, and the task was considered completed.

"Perhaps, none of the tasks generated in the golden coffin will reach the point where I cannot complete them." He thought to himself.

At this time, Su Bai also found that the way of completing the task was somewhat perfunctory.

As long as you find a way to complete it, it is considered complete.

Afterwards, Su Bai raised his hand and pulled up the clothes on his left arm.

At this time, on the golden coffin, the red dots melted away.

The red lines on the coffin suddenly more than doubled, forming some incomplete patterns.

That is an eye.

Su Bai stared at it for a while, and found that the eyes formed by the red lines looked a bit like... a cat.
