The night is getting thicker and thicker, and the occasional clouds in the sky cover most of the moon, which is not too bright, which makes the little light in the dark night, and suddenly there are only some wisps of light left, plus the wind-blown woods on the mountains outside the village, adding some terrifying atmosphere to the Qiulin Village at night.

Chi Shang Zhenyi looked at the kneeling villagers, and after guessing what these people were going to do, he found a big tree on the side of the road, and carefully hid in the shadow under the tree, under the cover of night, even if someone really looked back, he would not notice that there was a person standing in the shadow under the tree.

The reason why Ji Shang Zhenyi hid was because he didn't think about showing up now, because he knew that if he walked out like this now, he would definitely be driven away by these villagers.

Those people wouldn't believe that Ji Shang's true intentions could deal with that monster, and then he wouldn't be able to see the spirit that was going to be sacrificed tonight for the first time, so he would probably miss the best opportunity to deal with that spirit.

As time gradually passed, the moonlight in the sky, which was not much, was finally completely covered by those few clouds, and the whole land fell into darkness for a while, and Qiulin Village was of course no exception.

When the darkness completely fell, Chi Shang Zhenyi suddenly felt a cold aura outside the village approaching rapidly, although he didn't use his mental power to cover the inspection, he knew that it should be the 'protagonist' who was going to appear tonight.

At that moment, Chi Shang Zhenyi restrained his breath, for fear of startling the unknown mountain spirit monster, if that was the case, he would lose the opportunity to sneak attack.

After a burst of cold air, Chi Shang Zhenyi finally saw the appearance of this monster clearly, this is a monster with long fangs, white hair, ugly face, and a rickety body, which looks like an old woman.

This spirit is a mountain elder, and after seeing the mountain elder, Chi Shang Zhenyi immediately remembered the relevant introduction in the Hundred Ghosts Illustrated Book in his mind.

'Shan Lao, in the form of a human elderly woman, but it is really a kind of mountain monster, this mountain monster has the ability to control the land, travels quickly in the mountains, and can affect the growth of crops within a certain range, and it is because of this that ordinary people often compare it to the god Inari, which is also a kind of harvest god. ’

This statement is indeed well-founded, because this kind of mountain monster is indeed divided into good and evil, and the good mountain elders will avoid human beings, do not harm people, and use their talents to influence the land around the mountains and forests they live in, and often make the land harvest and increase production. ’

The evil mountain elders will attack the travelers passing in the mountains, devour them, and will also go to some nearby villages to steal children, this kind of mountain elders will not only not help the surrounding residents, but will often be a party to the disaster, becoming a nightmare in the hearts of the local residents. ’

Seeing the two children tied to the wooden pillars, the mountain elder who had just entered the village immediately had his eyes lit up, and a kind of green saliva flowed out of his mouth.

Obviously, the mountain elder is very obsessed with the taste of this child's meat, since it subdued this village a few years ago, it will come to eat fresh and tender children once a year, and it also knows that it can't eat up the delicious food at once, so it is still very controlling its own **, just eating some wild animals in the mountain, and catching some passing travelers to live.

Although it can only come here once a year to eat children, this does not mean that it usually does not have children, and there is an old woman in the wooden house in the mountains, who often gives some children's limbs to eat.

But it is also the most voracious living child, and it likes the feeling of biting the flesh of the child into its mouth little by little, accompanied by the cry of the child, which will make it more appetizing.

It seemed that he had already smelled the smell of the child's meat, and the mountain elder was already a little impatient, and in the kneeling of all the people of Qiulin Village, he went to the two delicious foods that were about to be eaten.

Miyuan Kusama, who was tied to a wooden pillar, looked at the monster that was coming towards her, and was so frightened that she burst into tears, but unfortunately she couldn't cry because of the strip of cloth tied in her mouth.

Kusama Miyuan knew what would happen to her when this monster came to her, and she had seen too many scenes of children bought by the village being eaten alive by this monster in the past few years.

At that time, Kusama Miyuan just felt terrible, but she didn't have any other ideas, after all, as a child in the village, she knew that nothing would happen.

But Kusama Miyuan didn't expect that this year, the village would actually sacrifice her and another little sister in the village.

This made Kusama Miyuan be in a state of nervous trance until the monster came out, until she saw the monster want to come by herself, she thought of her current situation, and now she can only hope that her father will come out to save her, otherwise she will die.

Miyuan Kusama, who was unwilling to be eaten by the monster, and the other little girl on the pillar next to her, both relied on their nasal voices to make a miserable sound as the mountain elder approached, hoping to make the adults below put them down.

The desperate sounds of the two children on the wooden pillar made the kneeling villagers below knock their heads lower.

For this kind of sound, Qiulin Village will hear it every year, but in the past, they used to listen to the cries of the children they didn't know, although they heard the sound very badly, but they didn't feel much, they just closed their eyes, thinking in their hearts that they were killing cattle in front of them, relying on this method, they would soon survive this annual terrifying sacrifice.

It's just that this year, the person who screamed on the wooden pillar was a child from this village, which made the villagers of Qiulin Village feel that the sound was so harsh, as if it was more panicked than in previous years, and among the villagers, the most uncomfortable were Mrs. Kusama and another family member who drew the child.

Listening to the desperate cry of his daughter on the wooden pillar, Kusama felt that he was really too much of a nest now, his daughter was in danger, and he could only lie in the corner like a dog.

This made Kusama's unwilling heart begin to become restless, and he wanted to go up to rescue his daughter, and by the way, destroy the monster that plagued their village, but this idea had just popped up in his heart, and he was immediately suppressed, because Kusama Taifu thought of the scene when the village rebelled against this monster.

When he was just entangled by this monster in Qiulin Village, he left four children in a row in a year, which made the already small mountain village fall into a panic, and finally the people in the village finally found out that it was the monster who did it after some investigation.

At that time, the villagers united to hunt and kill it, but what the villagers didn't expect was that this monster was invulnerable at all, not only ordinary knives could not reach it, but even a few rifles in the village could not hurt it at all.

And after the villagers jointly hunted and killed this matter, this monster became even more vicious, not only eating the children in the village, but even the adults did not let go, because of this, four families in the village were destroyed by this monster.

Since then, Qiulin Village has never dared to resist the monsters again, and will sacrifice every year in exchange for peace and tranquility.

After the old man appeared, Chi Shang Zhenyi had been paying attention to observing, he didn't make a move immediately, he had to do it when the monster reached the child's side, because this time should be the time when the monster was most relaxed, and at this time, he would be very sure that he would seriously injure it.

"It's now"

When he saw that the mountain elder was only less than two meters away from the little girl who was tied to the wooden pillar, Chi Shang Zhenyi suddenly threw out an instantaneous spell 'Extreme Thunder Technique' and attacked her head, wanting to kill this mountain elder with one blow.
