Dusk.
"Moo~ moo."
Lin Fan led two sheep to the entrance of the medical hall.
As he opened the door, he glanced back to ensure no one was watching before feeling at ease.
Herding the two sheep into the medical hall, Lin Fan frowned at their muttony smell.
"If this continues, my medical hall will turn into a slaughterhouse."
Lin Fan did not turn on the lights, and the room was dim.
He fumbled to open the box.
Instantly, the army of gu worms swarmed out.
"Moo~ moo."
Sensing danger, the two goats tried to escape, but it was too late.
Boom!
The army of gu worms, like a storm, instantly pounced on the two goats.
A chilling scream rang out.
Lin Fan stood not far away, watching the gu worm army devour the two goats.
The scene was extremely bloody!
If not for the threat of monsters, he truly wouldn't want to raise these bloodthirsty iron-headed gu.
Soon, only two perforated sheepskins and two skeletons wrapped in sheepskins remained on the ground.
Buzz buzz buzz…
The satisfied iron-headed gu's eyes turned blood red as they crawled out of the sheepskins one by one.
They flew in mid-air, circling Lin Fan as if awaiting inspection like soldiers.
Knock knock knock!
Just then, a knock sounded from outside.
Lin Fan jumped in fright.
"Xiao Fan, are you there?" a voice as pleasant as a yellow oriole called out.
"Shush, be quiet," Lin Fan gestured for silence.
The army of gu worms seemed to understand Lin Fan's intention and dispersed, finding places to land.
"Coming," Lin Fan called out and quickly walked to open the door.
Tian Mengyao stood outside the door, her face etched with worry. "The villagers wanted to drive away Han Jiayun and his wife. I was afraid of any trouble, so I told the villagers to stop working early."
"Oh, good job." Lin Fan knew that in any other village, Han Jiayun and his wife would have been beaten black and blue.
Fortunately, there was Tian Mengyao in Luofeng Village.
She was well-educated and would absolutely not let the villagers do anything illegal.
Lin Fan also did not agree with solving problems with violence.
This was mainly because Han Jiayun had a contract in hand.
If the police and reporters came, one would arrest them, and the other would expose the matter, bringing shame to the entire Luofeng Village. It would not be worth the loss.
Lin Fan did not want his hometown to be branded as "uncivilized people from a poor and backward land."
"When I came back, Han Jiayun and his wife were still at the quarry. They truly aren't afraid of getting lost and dying mysteriously in the deep mountains," Tian Mengyao said indignantly.
"Just right, I'll go over now," Lin Fan said in a deep voice.
"Shall I accompany you?" Tian Mengyao was worried about Lin Fan going alone and was deeply afraid of those ferocious iron-headed gu.
"No need, you wait for my good news at home." Lin Fan knew she was still uneasy about the gu worm army.
"Then you must be careful. If you encounter any trouble, call me immediately," Tian Mengyao urged.
"Got it."
After sending Tian Mengyao off, it was already dark.
Lin Fan took out his phone and sent a text message to Song Yue, telling her that he had gone to the village committee and would be back late for dinner.
Then, he called out to the empty room, "Come out!"
The next second, the army of gu worms crawled out from the corners, cracks, and under the bed, resembling a black and yellow carpet.
Buzz buzz buzz…
The iron-headed gu flew up, their wings beating, their sounds echoing in the room with a creepy rhythm that made one's scalp tingle.
Lin Fan opened the door and peeked out, confirming no one was outside, and then gestured for the gu worm army to follow.
"Don't stay too close to me."
Under Lin Fan's command, these little guys flew higher and higher, hundreds of meters above the ground, like a drifting dark cloud, hovering over Lin Fan.
Even so, the buzzing sound was still too loud, attracting many curious villagers to stand in the courtyard and watch.
Fortunately, it was dark, and the villagers could not clearly see what was flying in the sky, otherwise, they would have been terrified.
After leaving the village without incident, Lin Fan ran at full speed on the mountain road, his speed as fast as a phantom.
He looked up and saw the gu worm army still overhead, seemingly not tired at all.
"These little guys seem to have gotten stronger."
Lin Fan was surprised. When he was in Siam, although these gu worms could fly high, their speed was nowhere near as fast as it was now.
When did they become so powerful?
Lin Fan pondered for a moment and then got his answer.
It was right after they ate Long Pu!
As they continuously consumed flesh and blood, their strength would grow stronger.
Lin Fan was both excited and worried.
It was a good thing for him that the iron-headed gu had become stronger.
However, if they were to lose control someday, it might lead to unimaginable consequences.
——
Quarry.
A Toyota Prado was parked at the entrance, but there was no one in the car.
In the whistling mountain wind, the sounds of ghosts crying were faintly mixed.
"Husband, it's so dark around here, I'm so scared."
"What are you afraid of? Don't you think this is more romantic?"
Han Jiayun's voice was filled with heavy gasps.
Since his business failed, he had been living under constant pressure, and now he had completely let go of all his burdens.
Han Jiayun's mind was blank, like a walking corpse, only repeating mechanical movements.
While the beauty in front of him was still his woman, he wanted to seize every moment.
After Xu Zixin left, he probably wouldn't find such a young and beautiful woman to mess around with.
"Husband, are you possessed?"
Xu Zixin gritted her teeth and kept hitting Han Jiayun's back.
Han Jiayun was completely oblivious and continued as usual.
At the same time, a black cloud drifted over.
Lin Fan arrived at a gallop on the mountain road.
"Huh?"
Hearing a strange sound, Lin Fan immediately stopped in his tracks.
"Holy crap, no way?"
The vast sky was boundless. The first thing he saw was not sheep grazing in the wind, but a pair of perverts fighting.
On a large rock not far away, Xu Zixin's pleas and curses could be faintly heard.
Lin Fan was puzzled. Weren't these two married?
Why did it look like coercion?
However, this was their private matter, perhaps they were just being romantic.
Lin Fan found a hidden spot and hid, secretly peeping into the quarry.
Admittedly, this couple was incredibly bold.
The cave where the snake demon used to live had been sealed with cement, yet they found no anomalies and were still enthusiastically seeking pleasure.
If the snake demon were still alive, they would likely have met a terrible end.
Lin Fan watched with interest for a while, even recalling an old memory.
He had always thought of taking Song Yue to the wilderness for an unrestrained indulgence once he had a car.
Later, he got a car, but it was occupied by Tian Mengyao, so the opportunity was lost.
Seeing Han Jiayun so energetic now, Lin Fan couldn't help but feel envious.
"Hey, what are you thinking about?"
Lin Fan gently slapped himself. He hadn't even done his important business yet, how could he be lost in thought?
He looked up at the sky.
Without his command, the gu worm army, relying on their formidable physique, resisted the fierce wind and remained loyal, not daring to slack off in the slightest.
"Down."
Lin Fan extended a hand, making a downward gesture, his gaze fixed on Han Jiayun, who was already at his wit's end.
Buzz buzz buzz…
The low wing-beating sound was not obvious in the wind.
