Chapter 179 Fish that eats brains?
Faced with the relentless attacks of the flat-headed men, Bai Tian could no longer bear it. He pierced the hearts of three of them with a spear, and then pierced the neck of another.
Finally, Pingtou was kicked away by Bai Tian. Bai Tian did not give Pingtou a chance to jump up again. He flew over and rode on Pingtou, pressing his head firmly to the ground.
Bai Tian was stepping on the flat head while looking at the other people he stabbed with a frown.
They were finally unable to get up and attack again and were slowly dying.
But it was strange that their souls were not seen in the underworld during the day.
As they died, the black gas that appeared above their heads gradually disappeared.
Weird, don’t these people have souls?
That shouldn't be the case. Even when animals die, their souls can be seen entering the underworld during the day. This is the first time I've encountered a person dying without their soul appearing.
Bai Tian frowned as he looked down at the flat-headed man who was being stepped on. The flat-headed man was struggling desperately, but he didn't scream. There was always a black aura above his head.
Bai Tian hesitated for a moment before squatting down and putting his hand on the flat-headed man's head.
As expected, the black energy on Pingtou's head immediately rushed into Bai Tian's body along his arm.
This black air was actually hot and fierce, and it wanted to penetrate into the dantian.
He didn't use his internal energy to resist during the day, he wanted to see what the hell this force was!
After the black energy quickly penetrated Bai Tian's Dantian, it quickly tried to escape, and was very panicked. However, Bai Tian's Dantian actually operated on its own, releasing power to forcibly pull the black energy back into the Dantian.
Soon, the presence of the black energy could no longer be felt during the day.
This is strange. How can I absorb this black energy on my own?
"Cough cough..."
There was a coughing sound under his feet, and Bai Tian regained consciousness and found that Pingtou seemed to be awake. However, it was strange that Pingtou seemed to be rapidly fading and about to die.
Bai Tian loosened his feet, turned Pingtou over, and asked with a frown, "Why are you going crazy?"
The flat-headed man was bewildered for a moment, then he whispered with difficulty, "You are also from Black Sky City, right?"
"Yes, I am with Qi Yu and the others. What's going on in your tribe?" Bai Tian asked again.
The flat-headed man closed his eyes, a trace of bitterness crossed his face, and he explained weakly in a low voice: "It all started after Qi Yu taught us how to practice."
"After Qi Yu taught us how to practice, we became very strong. At first, everything was normal. But then, suddenly, some people started eating people."
"I've forgotten why this happened. Anyway, more and more people were eaten, and then we all went crazy. I remember we became so powerful that even wild animals didn't dare to approach us..."
As he was speaking, Pingtou suddenly jumped and died.
It's creepy to listen to during the day, cannibalism, how did they come up with that?!
What's strange is that this time, the soul of Flat Head appeared in the underworld during the day. Just like Fu Sheng and others before, it first formed a ball of black mist and then quickly dissipated.
But just now, the souls of the other five people did not appear, why did only Flathead appear?
What exactly happened to this tribe? Why did they start eating people for no reason? Why did they go crazy after eating people?
This tribe really didn't show any signs of being attacked by wild animals. All the houses in the tribe had clearly been abandoned for a long time, but they were still well preserved. It was strange...
Before he could think about it, Qi Yu came back, and Qi Yang and others also rushed over.
Seeing that Bai Tian and the others were dumbfounded, Qi Yu and the others took a deep breath.
But when they heard Bai Tian say that Pingtou and his friends were cannibals, Qi Yu and his friends were so scared that their faces turned green.
Even in primitive society, when life was difficult, cannibalism was rare. At least Qi Yu and others had never seen it in their lives!
During the day, he asked Qi Yu and others to wait outside the tribe while he went into the tribe to search alone.
Soon, daytime saw many human bones in the last few straw huts. The scene was terrifying, as if everyone had been gnawed clean. Even though daytime had seen a lot, this scene still shocked me.
It's really weird. Why did it turn out like this?
Cultivating, eating people, going crazy...
Due to this incident, the team was not allowed to enter the Pingyu tribe during the day, but chose to stay temporarily on the river bank upstream from the tribe.
It was getting dark at this time, and Bai Tian and Qi Yu and others were eating around the fire.
During the day, Qi Yu and the others tried hard to recall their experiences in the Pingyu tribe, and tried to find some clues from their memories.
However, the last time Qi Yu and others appeared in the Pingyu tribe was three years ago, and they didn’t feel anything unusual at that time.
According to Qi Yu, the people of the Pingyu tribe are very kind and enthusiastic about cultivation. Some of them can even learn it right away.
I listened with a frown during the day. A tribe that was doing well started to eat each other and went crazy for no apparent reason just because of cultivation?
There must be something going on here!
"Oh right," Qi Yu suddenly whispered, "I remember Pingtou said that their tribe is called Pingyu because there is a kind of fish nearby that looks flat."
"Right," Qi Yang continued, "We even asked them to take us to find flatfish, but we didn't find any. Flathead said flatfish would eat a person's brain, but the person would still live. I laughed at them."
Eat a person's brain and the person is still alive?
Could it be that what they eat is the human soul?
Bai Tian immediately asked, "Did they mention any other details?"
Qi Yu and the others scratched their heads awkwardly. "It's been so long, I don't remember much. I just heard from Pingtou that the fish was very flat, as flat as a tongue. We've never seen one before."
The corners of my mouth twitched slightly during the day. If you only know half of the truth, it’s better not to say anything!
As they were discussing, Jiang Lian came over with a strange look on his face. "Bai Tian, are you sure there's really no one in that tribe?"
Bai Tian was confused: "Chief, why do you ask?"
Jiang Lian said with a hint of embarrassment: "I was just looking for medicine with Jiang Shui and the others when I heard a child crying in that tribe."
Bai Tian's expression suddenly changed: "You guys went in?"
Jiang Lian shook his head: "No, I just heard a child crying. Jiang Shui wanted to go in, but I didn't let him in, so I came back to find you."
Bai Tian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and said solemnly, "Tell everyone in the tribe not to go near the water. Also, pay attention to defense tonight."
As he spoke, Bai Tian stood up and said, "I'm going to take a look. Don't run around. If I'm not back tomorrow morning, just go around this place and leave first."
Without waiting for anyone to say anything, Bai Tian picked up his spear and ran away quickly.
The crying of children and the fish eating brains must be related to the madness of Flathead and others...
