Zeng Ziming said, “I only saw those sticks collapse; I couldn’t see anything else.”
Tian Xiaoxia also shook her head, “I didn’t see it either.”
“This time… it’s coming for me,” Zeng Shiyuo suddenly said behind them.
He sounded calm, but his lips were trembling slightly, his face was pale, and sweat beads had formed on his forehead.
In Zeng Shiyuo’s eyes, what appeared before him was a burly man clad in tattered clothes, bald, with an expression that was vicious yet extremely rigid.
The three members of the Zeng Family remained still, and Zeng Shiyuo had no intention of running away either.
He stared intently at the burly man approaching from outside the house, who also fixed his gaze on him while walking.
However, just as he stepped over a slightly raised makeshift fence, the burly man failed to watch his step, suddenly stumbled, and fiercely fell into a deeper pit.
“He fell in,” Zeng Shiyuo immediately said.
The other two watched the direction of the pit anxiously, and although they couldn’t see the strangeness, they could feel the dirt falling, suggesting something had indeed dropped in.
“Just wait a bit longer,” Zeng Shiyuo seemed to be talking to himself.
About four or five minutes passed, and there was no movement at the pit. It seemed the burly man couldn’t climb out.
“He can’t get out,” Zeng Shiyuo said, his expression slightly relaxed.
Tian Xiaoxia and Zeng Ziming both breathed a sigh of relief.
Where the mud pit was now had originally been flat ground. When they had been setting up the simple trap, they hadn’t expected that digging down a meter would cause the ground to collapse, resulting in a natural deep pit.
The pit was about four meters deep, not very large in area, but surrounded by hard rocks forming a wall-like structure. Due to the moisture nearby, it was hard for anything to cling to it to climb out.
Now it seemed their plan was feasible as the strangeness that fell in couldn’t climb out.
After combining their experiences with other strangenesses, Zeng Shiyuo speculated that these entities moved slowly and, although invisible, were tangible to them.
If they were tangible, then their experience falling into the pit shouldn’t be much different from a person’s. The test now proved just that.
A few more minutes passed, and Zeng Shiyuo kept an eye near the pit, convinced the strangeness wouldn’t come out.
At this time, Zeng Ziming and Tian Xiaoxia were beside him, observing. Zeng Shiyuo said, “Watch the other windows.”
So engrossed in observation, the two had completely forgotten to guard against other strangenesses. Startled by Zeng Shiyuo’s reminder, they swiftly turned to check the other windows.
Furthermore, Zeng Ziming even moved closer to the window, pressing against the glass, peering at the spot nearest to the cabin, fearing that they had missed a strangeness sneaking up on them.
“There’s another strangeness coming,” Zeng Shiyuo suddenly said.
Zeng Ziming and Tian Xiaoxia were startled and hurriedly moved closer, but of course, they saw nothing.
“Dad, is it coming for you again?” inquired Zeng Ziming, surprised.
“I can’t see it either,” said Tian Xiaoxia, shaking her head.
Zeng Shiyuo was somewhat baffled, for in his field of vision, he could see a middle-aged woman with no top approaching, coming from the same direction as the burly man.
“Why am I the target again?” Zeng Shiyuo wondered.
Luckily, the woman’s path was almost identical to the previous entity’s, and as she moved, she only kept her eyes on Zeng Shiyuo without watching where she was stepping.
Suddenly, she missed her step and fell into the same deep pit.
Zeng Shiyuo looked on, baffled by the scene, murmuring, “She fell in too, it was a female strangeness, but she also fell into that deep pit.”
“Ah.”
Zeng Ziming and Tian Xiaoxia exchanged looks.
Just as Tian Xiaoxia turned her gaze back outside the window, she immediately pointed and said, “That… that dwarf covered in purple, the one I saw in the house, he’s come.”
This time, Zeng Shiyuo and Zeng Ziming saw nothing, only witnessing Tian Xiaoxia shaking all over, her face almost twisted with fear, pointing ahead and saying, “That dwarf… he climbed onto my back inside the house, knocking on my head. He was talking too, but I didn’t understand what he was saying…”
The next second, the completely purple dwarf missed his footing and fell into the pit.
“What’s going on?” Tian Xiaoxia was startled, “He… he fell in too, also fell in.”
The sky had dimmed by now, marking the fall of dusk.
Before long, Zeng Ziming pointed outside and exclaimed, “That’s the naked old crone, the one who grabbed me in the alley.”
This time, only he could see her. And indeed, as she moved closer, she also fell into the pit.
What followed was the two-meter-tall thin man, then the half-naked old man that Zeng Shiyuo first saw in the residential area, followed by the strange woman at the construction site guard room…
The strangenesses that appeared thereafter were unseen by the three of them before, and they couldn’t simultaneously see a particular entity, but saw them in turns.
Eventually, all three were sweating coldly.
Not for any other reason but because the appearing strangenesses had begun to look incomplete. Some were missing the right shoulder and the right arm, leaving only a dark void, as if they were scorched.
Others had lost a small chunk of their head, appearing incomplete at a glance.
Some had an obvious portion of leg bone missing, walking unevenly, and then tumbling into the deep pit.
