The Three Siblings in the Dilapidated House

"Waaaaah..."

Where did the crying come from?

That's so jarring.

Shen Yi's consciousness was just beginning to return when he suddenly felt a sharp pain sweep through his entire body.

The pain caused him to curl up involuntarily, clenching his teeth tightly.

hiss--

It hurts so much!

Shen Yi forced his eyes open, only to find a dilapidated wooden hut in front of him.

Besides him, there were two other children inside the house.

They all looked quite young.

The boy was about fourteen or fifteen years old, and the girl was about eight or nine years old...

Despite the intense pain in his head, Shen Yiqiang quickly scanned the layout of the entire room.

As a seasoned butcher who has been through many battles, his will is still quite resilient.

Although I don't know how I suddenly ended up in this place.

But clearly, the wisest course of action now is not to yell and scream, but to quickly understand one's situation.

Only then can we find a way to escape this predicament.

However, the next second, Shen Yi's expression froze.

His gaze fell on the faces of the two children.

He noticed that although the two children were incredibly excited to see him wake up, they still covered their mouths tightly with their hands, trying their best not to make a sound.

Since none of the three people in the room made a sound.

Who is crying?

Shen Yitian felt a sudden tightness in his head, his scalp tingling, and a chill rising from the soles of his feet and spreading throughout his body.

He quickly turned his head, his gaze sweeping towards the direction from which the crying was coming.

At the half-open wooden door.

A trembling eye was frantically peering through the crack in the door.

The whites of his eyes made up the majority of his vision, while his pupils were only the size of pinholes.

This thing... is definitely not human!

Shen Yi's heart trembled violently.

No living thing on Earth could possibly have eyes that give off such a strong sense of eeriness!

As a strange gaze approached, Shen Yi instinctively held his breath, remaining vigilant towards the wooden door.

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!

Immediately afterwards, a violent banging sound came from the wooden door, and the entire door frame was shaken violently.

It's that 'thing' outside banging on the door... no, judging by its posture, it's ramming the door!

The impact grew louder and louder.

Shen Yi was worried that the wooden door would turn into wood chips in the next second, allowing the thing outside to break in.

Strangely, this seemingly fragile wooden door actually withstood a series of fierce impacts.

The crashing sounds finally stopped reluctantly half an hour later.

The room returned to calm.

At this moment, Shen Yi saw the two children stand up and walk towards him.

The older boy cautiously asked, "Big brother, it's dawn. The one-eyed ghost should have left. Are you... alright?"

The younger girl snuggled into Shen Yi's arms, hugging him tightly, her voice choked with sobs, muffled as she spoke:

"Big brother, I'm so scared. I'm so scared that you and our parents won't be with us anymore either."

Despite the excruciating pain throughout his body, Shen Yi was still completely bewildered.

However, the next moment, he felt the headache that had been suppressed for so long finally erupt completely.

Some memories that didn't belong to him surfaced deep within his mind.

"Black Mountain Village, Shen Yi... sixteen years old... his parents fought against the One-Eyed Demon half a month ago and unfortunately died..."

Shen Yi's consciousness processed the information at lightning speed, and in no time he had completely absorbed the fragmented memory.

He actually time-traveled!

This world is filled with all sorts of terrifying evil spirits, folk taboos abound, and demons and monsters run rampant!

Some demons enjoy eating human hearts, while others prefer to suck out brain marrow...

Although humans are weak and regarded as food by demons and monsters, they have also discovered cultivation methods to enhance their own strength in order to fight against demons!

Shen's father and mother were both cultivators at the third level of the Qi and Blood Realm.

They were considered quite powerful in Black Mountain Village, possessing the ability to go out hunting.

However, they were powerless to resist the one-eyed demon!

Both parents died.

The protagonist had to shoulder the burden of the family, taking care of his two younger siblings and going out to hunt to make a living.

Two days ago, his predecessor encountered a wild boar that was almost a demon. He barely managed to kill the boar by risking his life, but he was seriously injured as a result.

After dragging the wild boar home, the original body's will finally gave way, and it completely sank into darkness.

After two long days, he finally couldn't hold on any longer, allowing the soul with the same name from Earth to travel to his location.

With his mind racing, Shen Yi finished integrating all the information about this world, and his expression was quite interesting.

Why did I get transported to a world full of demons and monsters? Is this some kind of joke?

Given the current situation, he will most likely encounter demons if he goes out during the day.

Needless to say, at night, countless monsters and spirits roam the darkness.

Once night falls, the whole world is filled with an eerie atmosphere, a time of revelry for spirits and monsters, and ordinary people dare not even step out of their houses.

When the houses in Heishan Village were built, each household had a layer of low-level spiritual runes engraved on them to ward off evil spirits.

First-tier demons and monsters will be burned by the spirit patterns as soon as they come into contact with a house, and will have to retreat.

However, once they encounter beings of the second rank or higher, these spirit runes become completely useless.

Fortunately, Black Mountain Village is located in a relatively remote area and is not inhabited by any second-tier demons or monsters.

Otherwise, the village wouldn't have existed here for over sixty years without incident.

"However, for me and my two younger siblings, even a first-tier spirit is deadly enough."

Shen Yi felt heavy-hearted.

In this world, the only way to fight against demons and survive is to become a cultivator.

However, Heishan Village is located in a remote area with scarce resources, making it difficult for ordinary people to obtain good cultivation resources.

The original owner had practiced for nearly a year, but still couldn't get past the first level of the Qi and Blood Realm.

However, he is not far from entering the first level of the Qi and Blood Realm.

The two elders of the Shen family had originally planned to gather more resources during this period so that their eldest son could break through the Qi and Blood barrier in one fell swoop and become a true cultivator, so that he could help them in the future.

But who would have thought that not long after, the two elders would suffer an irresistible calamity.

correct!

Shen Yi suddenly remembered the wild boar that his predecessor had killed two days ago.

It was a beast that was almost a demon, and its flesh and blood contained enormous energy, which should be enough for him to break through his cultivation barrier in one fell swoop.

Once he becomes a cultivator, he will be able to attempt to hunt down even newly transformed beasts or low-level spirits!

But after a quick glance, there was no trace of the wild boar inside the house.

Shen Yi frowned slightly, looking at his younger brother and sister, "Where did the wild boar I hunted a couple of days ago go?"

It's only been two days.

They couldn't possibly have eaten a wild boar that weighed nearly 400 pounds.
