Chapter 145 The Legend of the Human-faced Bear (12)
If there is any important event in the town that requires a meeting, or if there is any performance to be held, everyone will gather in the center of the town.
Because there is a piece of land that is the largest in the town, occupying an area of almost half the size of Xinhe town.
"The performance usually starts in the afternoon. Now I am just taking you to visit their setup."
"You will have to come and watch it by yourselves in the afternoon. After all, I will bring my family to watch this annual performance."
As the guide spoke, a smile appeared on his face, revealing his signature big white teeth from his thick, lush black beard.
"Black bear show, are they black bears from the mountains?"
At this time, Li Haoyu asked.
"There are no black bears in the mountains. Black bears are kept in captivity in circuses and used to perform in various places to earn money."
The guide raised his hand and touched the beard on his chin, his eyes narrowed slightly.
"So, the black bear show in your town is not organized by the town itself?" Shi Yunan also spoke up.
Xi Jingzhi said nothing, his eyes only focused on Shi Yunan. Their hands had been held from the beginning until now and had never been separated.
In such hot weather, don't you feel hot holding hands? Won't you sweat?
Ling Ruyun looked at the actions of the two people and secretly criticized them.
Love is really a magical thing.
"Of course not. The black bear show in our town is just a custom that has been passed down to this day."
“Has it been passed down to this day?” Shi Yunan narrowed his eyes.
"Yes, it is said that black bears that can imitate humans appeared in the town before. They would wave for help like humans, and after tricking humans into coming over, they would bite off their necks and swallow them."
“Ah, just like this.”
As the guide spoke, he pointed to a place.
In the open space, two people in circus costumes were pushing a prison cart that looked like the one used to hold prisoners in ancient times. On the cart was a black bear that was about 1.7 meters tall when standing.
If you look at it from a distance, its size and height do look very human-like.
No wonder they can imitate, black bears are really spiritual animals.
After seeing humans, the black bear in the prison car immediately stood up and waved at them, as if asking for help.
"But this doesn't mean anything, right? It has nothing to do with the black bear show," Jiang Yannan asked with some confusion.
Hearing this, the guide turned his head and looked at Jiang Yannan deeply, then continued speaking.
"What I just said is just one example. Black bears are very smart animals. They not only imitate humans to ask for help."
"They have also learned to assassinate humans from behind and use simple tools, such as knives. Black bears can also open doors and windows by themselves."
At this point, the guide smiled strangely, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.
Everyone was frightened by what the guide said, and when they thought about the human-faced bear that happened last night, it only made it even more terrifying.
No wonder the guide reminded them to close the doors and windows when they went to bed at night and not to open the door if they heard any noise.
It turns out it was really to protect them.
Seeing this group of people gradually beginning to trust the guide's words, Shi Yunan curled up the corners of his mouth into a faint smile.
"What happens next? Will these black bears in the circus attack humans again?" Luo Fengxiang asked hurriedly. He didn't want any accidents to happen while watching the show in the afternoon.
"Guess why the annual black bear show became popular in our town? Of course it's because all the black bears that could imitate humans have been killed."
"All the black bears left are well-trained and non-aggressive, so we can bring our families to watch the show with peace of mind."
The guide turned around and looked at Luo Fengxiang's timid appearance with a smile.
"Don't be afraid, young man, if you have any problem, just call the guide"
The guide stretched out his broad palm and patted Luo Fengxiang gently on the shoulder, as if giving him a strange sense of power.
Luo Fengxiang instantly felt a lot more at ease, and this action also made him trust the guide more.
At this moment, Shi Yunan noticed the hair on the guide's arms, which seemed to be too long and thick.
It's just like the animal hair that should have grown on the human body.
Thinking of this, Shi Yunan finally realized that something was wrong.
The temperature now is over 20 degrees Celsius, and it will be even higher after the sun comes out.
Even those who wear short sleeves will feel hot and sweat.
The people in Xinhe Town actually wore long sleeves and coats, and except for their bearded faces, the rest of their skin was covered tightly.
It was obvious that Wu Muzhe and the others as well as Cheng Zhipeng's people had also noticed this, and they became secretly alert.
Ling Ruyun, who was standing alone on the other side and did not interrupt their conversation, seemed to be in a trance at this moment.
She was staring at a beautiful woman who had just finished washing clothes and was about to enter the house with a wooden basin.
The woman seemed to have noticed Ling Ruyun's gaze. She turned around and smiled at her shyly with her lips pursed.
Ling Ruyun seemed to have her soul hooked away, and she raised her foot to walk towards the woman.
A beautiful woman seduces people with the most gentle gaze in the world, and her graceful figure cannot be concealed even if she wears long pants and long sleeves.
At this moment, a broad palm slapped Ling Ruyun's shoulder, instantly awakening her from her dazed state.
"Hey! You outsiders, didn't I remind you not to keep staring at the girls in our town?"
The guide shouted rudely and directly reached out his hand to turn Ling Ruyun's body over.
Judging from this action alone, the guide has very strong arms.
Ling Ruyun only then realized that she seemed to have done something stupid. She was filled with shame and cursed herself in her heart that she was not a good girl at ordinary times!
How come after entering this instance, the handsome guy didn't seduce her soul, but the beautiful girl seduced her...
Because of the guide's help, some of the people present who had just become wary, let down their guard again.
"This guide is quite good at playing with people's psychology," Xi Jingzhi lowered his head and whispered close to Shi Yunan's ear.
After saying this, he did not rush to evacuate, but blew gently into his ear.
After successfully seeing his wife's ears turn red because of his actions, Xi Jingzhi's mouth corners raised, and his eyes revealed a smile and love.
"It doesn't matter, he says what he wants, we just don't believe it," Shi Yunan let go of the hand he had been holding, and put his right hand on the red ears and rubbed them gently.
