Chapter 4

~8 min read 1,474 words

Xia Hong gave Xia Chuan a look and quietly handed him a hand axe.

Then he walked to the front and spoke to the two Xia Dings:

"Father, we brothers cannot distinguish who is real and who is fake. Can you let us two go one by one, get closer, take a careful look, and then make a choice?"

"Okay, come on!"

The two Xia Dings agreed in unison, clearly very confident.

Xia Hong took a deep breath, patted his younger brother Xia Chuan, signaling him to go to the left, while he walked towards the Xia Ding on the right.

The two brothers walked at a similar pace and almost reached the two "Xia Dings" at the same time.

Xia Hong widened his eyes and looked at the Xia Ding on the right who returned later from head to toe. It seemed he didn't look carefully enough, so he even walked behind him to look.

Xia Ding's face was full of sincerity, and his expression was incomparably confident, letting Xia Hong walk behind him, and even straightened his body to let him look more carefully.

However, the moment he stood behind him, Xia Hong's eyes were immediately stained with a layer of blood, and his expression instantly became ferocious.

"Do it!"

A shout startled everyone.

I saw Xia Hong and Xia Chuan both raise their hand axes and slash violently at the "Xia Ding" in front of them respectively.

Bang……

The hand axe and the head collided violently. It should have been brain matter splattering, and the scene should have been incomparably bloody.

But in reality, Xia Chuan's hand axe didn't even land on Xia Ding's head before it was caught by the other party with bare hands.

And Xia Hong's strength was stronger than his after all, and the hand axe hit Xia Ding's head.

It solidly split the head into two.

However, what was terrifying was that there was no yellow or white matter coming out of Xia Ding's head; instead, it was like wood being split from the middle, but the fork was still connected to the neck.

What was even more horrifying was that after having his head split like this, "Xia Ding's" eyes were still turning, looking at Xia Hong in front of him with great interest, and even a smile appeared on his face.

It's just that the smile looked sinister no matter how you looked at it.

"Chuan, retreat!"

Xia Hong didn't even have time to pull out the stone axe, shouted at Xia Chuan on the other side, and retreated violently towards the camp crowd.

Hearing this, Xia Chuan also hurriedly withdrew, gave up the stone axe directly, and retreated to the back.

Everyone in the camp had already been scared silly by the two brothers' actions just now. At this moment, seeing the appearance of "Xia Ding," how could they not understand.

The Xia Ding on the right who returned later must be fake.

What about the one on the left?

Why did Xia Chuan sneak attack, could it be that he is also fake?

Just as the crowd was suspicious, the Xia Ding on the left moved.

I saw him walk to the front of the Xia Ding on the right, reach into the middle of the split head, stroke it twice, and then press his hands on both sides and close them towards the middle.

The split head miraculously closed together.

Not only that, that "Xia Ding" even twisted his neck, then turned his head to stare at Xia Hong standing in front of the camp crowd, and smiled sinisterly.

This eerie scene made everyone in the camp feel their hearts crawl.

The Xia Ding on the left stood out and spoke to Xia Hong.

"Interesting, interesting, my two works, clearly look exactly like your father, and I don't think I revealed any flaws. You two, how did you see it?"

His voice seemed to be made by wood shavings rubbing, hoarse, harsh, and strange.

"Assuming one of you is real and one is fake, the fake one must not know so much about us and Father, but you two know everything, so..."

Xia Hong paused here, his expression becoming a bit gloomy.

Xia Ding certainly couldn't have told everything.

This strange creature can know so much about the camp and Xia Ding.

There is only one possibility.

"Hehehe, quite smart. Before that Xia Ding died, he was still running in the opposite direction of your camp, wanting to lure me away. It seems he cares a lot about you people!"

"I'll kill you!"

Xia Chuan on the side, getting the news of Father Xia Ding's death from the strange creature's mouth, immediately lost control and rushed towards the strange creature with bare hands.

Xia Hong was quick-eyed and quick-handed and immediately stopped him.

"Calm down!"

If Xia Hong said he wasn't sad at all, that would be a lie.

The problem is that there is no time to be sad at all now.

The two "Xia Dings" had already surrounded them, and the twenty-four woodcutting team members also followed behind with expressionless faces, clearly intending to do it.

"Everyone, there is still a way to live if you fight for your life!"

Xia Hong didn't hesitate, shouted angrily, and rushed forward directly.

Although he said so, Xia Hong had no bottom in his heart.

Twenty-six Woodcutting Realm combatants, these two hundred or so people in the camp, even if they fight for their lives, the hope is not very great.

Not to mention, he knew nothing about the strange creature that could transform into Xia Ding.

The other party definitely has more than just this transformation ability.

Is it possible that just one month after transmigrating, he is going to be gone?

The answer is already out.

The people in the camp did indeed follow him and rush up like a mountain and sea.

But those two "Xia Dings" almost killed one with one punch.

In just a moment, at least twenty people were killed.

Blood splattered, and wails rose everywhere.

In just a while, a thick smell of blood rose in the entire cave.

Bang……

Xia Hong was kicked away, hit the cave wall violently, and blood gushed out from his mouth.

Looking at the bloody slaughter in the cave, deep despair rose in his heart.

In the month since transmigrating, he considered himself diligent and was always thinking about how to improve his strength.

Because whether it was Father Xia Ding or the previous woodcutting team members, they were constantly reminding him that the world outside is dangerous.

But with the steady growth of strength and the peaceful life in the cave, he gradually felt that this was just an alien world that was a bit colder.

Only at this moment did he truly realize:

The danger of this world is far beyond imagination.

His self-perceived efforts are not worth mentioning in front of the strange creature.

"Brother... save... me…………"

Xia Chuan's hoarse and low whimpering voice entered his ears.

Xia Hong turned his head to look, and his eyes were immediately split, and his heart was filled with raging anger.

That "Xia Ding" had a cruel smile on his face and was tightly pinching Xia Chuan's neck, pressing him against the wall.

It seemed he was in a playful mood, he deliberately used less force, didn't break Xia Chuan's neck all at once, just slowly increased the force, making Xia Chuan increasingly suffocated and painful.

In the month since transmigrating to this world, because Father Xia Ding was often outside and only returned at night, and even when he returned, he didn't talk much to him.

Therefore, Xia Hong's feelings for Xia Ding were not deep.

Instead, he valued his younger brother Xia Chuan, whom he lived with day and night, more.

The strange creature's hand used more and more force, Xia Chuan's throat was constantly squeezed, blood gradually seeped out from his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose, and his expression became increasingly ferocious.

At this very moment, Xia Hong no longer had the fear of death, only the hatred for his own incompetence and the strong desire for power.

If only he could be a little stronger, a little stronger...

The slaughter in the cave was still continuing, and there were already five or sixty corpses on the ground.

Many people were frantically running towards the cave entrance, but their speed and strength were far inferior to the enemy, and they were often killed before reaching the cave entrance.

【Encountered destructive damage, camp system rebuilding, gifting primary building Small Bonfire, please note to check, host】

Just at this moment, a voice entered his mind.

Xia Hong only felt that in two lifetimes of being a human, he had never heard such a beautiful voice.
