Chapter 120: The One Who Turns His Back on the Lord
“1234567,7654321......”
"Eat grapes without spitting out grape skins, don't eat grapes but spit out grape skins......"
"Look at this noodle, it's long and wide, look at this bowl, it's big and round......"
Repeating the nonsense at three times, Zhu Jue stood behind several black-robed men, who began to stand in the middle of the clearing and pray meaninglessly as the sound of a constant howl and shrill hissing from the radio tower mixed in.
Zhu Jue naturally didn't know about these people's spells, so he could only find a way to keep up with their rhythm and try not to reveal his identity, but fortunately, once these people entered the state, they didn't care about what was happening next to them, coupled with the constant noise from the radio tower, so that Zhu Jue, the RAP player who was mixed in the back, was never discovered.
This state did not last long, and Zhu Jue soon noticed that there were many shadows on the nearby streets.
They swayed forward, each step seemed to be frozen for a short time, and they howled at the same time as the cultists, as if they were in harmony with each other, and as if they were borrowing this way to express some kind of worship.
The light and shadow on all sides gradually showed some strange changes.
The street lights that should have been bright were now stained with distorted shadows, like ink dripping into clear water, and in a short time they were rendered into a shiny black spot that is difficult to describe in words.
Zhu Jue's gaze stayed on the surrounding buildings from time to time, and those buildings that looked very normal before had also become a hideous existence like a demon cave at this time, as if there were countless terrifying beasts hiding in them, and they would open their bloody mouths and pounce on them at any time.
Frowning, Zhu Jue realized that his spiritual defense line was inevitably being tested in this environment, and there were already some signs of being breached.
The scavenger crept into his cochlea, minimizing the influence from the outside world, and Qiangbo withdrew his gaze to focus on the changes in the residents who had gathered around.
They swayed their arms high and swayed around like molluscs, seemingly mimicking something indescribable, and the black lines on their bodies proved that they were no longer pure humans, and that their bodies had been completely transformed by years of mental torture.
They are still alive.
They're dead.
Zhu Jue relied on his excellent night vision to roughly count the circle, and the number of people who appeared in this vicinity was about 15, and in terms of physical appearance, they were basically adults, and the ratio between men and women was almost the same.
Naturally, there could not be only a dozen people in the whole village, and on the way here, Flo had said that the number of people living in the village should be hundreds, which means that only a very small number of them appeared here.
Why are these people here in such a strange way at this point in time?
They were called by the noise coming from the radio towers?
Or is it that these dozen or so people are actually people who have been predetermined a long time ago, and the sound of the radio tower is just a signal to summon them.
Where is Flo now?
Zhu Jue suddenly remembered this young man, he said before parting with him that he was going to destroy the broadcasting tower, but the smooth operation of the broadcasting tower now undoubtedly confirmed that the broadcasting tower had not been damaged.
Did his operation fail?
Although Zhu Jue was a little worried about the situation of this young man, at this time, even if Zhu Jue wanted to know Flo's situation, it was impossible for him to leave the team and go to him, so he could only follow the team naturally.
It was still the person holding the bamboo basket who walked in the front, and the others followed in his footsteps, Zhu Jue was in the middle of the line, and behind him were those people, it didn't feel good to have their backs to the mutants of the spiritual pollution source, and the perception of danger made Zhu Jue control his desire to turn around and clear them all the time.
The direction of the whole team was the jungle outside the village, and Zhu Jue took advantage of the hood of the black robe to cover it, and looked left and right about the road.
The weeds and stones on the ground have been specially cleared, and the vegetation in many places has obvious trampling marks, which are not left by the people in front of them, because if it is a newly stepped grass blade, it will rebound slightly, and the dead yellow grass blades that have been stepped into the soil in front of you are obviously the result of being trampled on many times.
In other words, the path has been around for a long time.
Zhu Jue was thinking about where this team would go, and the footsteps of the people in front of him suddenly stopped, and Zhu Jue, who almost bumped into it, immediately stopped.
Arrived at your destination?
Looking around, it's still a jungle, and there's nothing strange about it.
"Let me go...... Let go of me!"
A familiar voice came from the front, Zhu Jue's expression froze, and he moved to the side without a trace.
Sure enough, Flo appeared at the front of the team with a backpack in his hand, and at this time his shoulder was being gnawed by a giant wolf, and the whole person was tilted and held in his mouth.
Blood soaked through his shirt, and Flo turned pale from the sharp pain in his shoulder, but his right hand remained clutched at his backpack, his eyes locked on the crowd in front of him.
About 20 minutes earlier, he had already accomplished his goal, and the next thing to do was to stop the group, and it happened that he discovered their presence when he returned to the prayer ground in the village, so he followed them all the way, and who would have thought that he actually ran into a giant wolf patrolling the jungle halfway.
It's just that even if he was discovered by accident, his plan still did not fail, as long as he was close to a certain distance, he still had a way to kill all these people here, prevent the next sacrifice ceremony, and avoid more serious consequences.
The giant wolf did not bite Flo directly, but after receiving the order of the black-robed man holding the bamboo basket, he lowered him at the front of the line and then bared his teeth and retreated.
"Thank you for saving me, I'm a cameraman who came to the valley to collect wind, and I met that monster that was taken here by it, do you know how to get out of this jungle? I can pay you a certain amount. ”
Flo knew that what he was saying was full of holes, but he didn't intend to convince the people in front of him to believe him, all he wanted to do was to close the distance.
"Flo, although your appearance has changed dramatically, the aura you emanate is unlikely to fool my eyes...... Traitor who has turned your back on the Lord, how dare you come back here again and hand over what the Lord once gave you, or I guarantee that you will suffer all the tortures!"
The leading black-robed man revealed Flo's identity in one word, and asked the genetic giant wolf to let go of this man, not to save him, but to punish this person who was obviously favored by the Lord but turned his back on the Lord in another way.
"I've been tortured every night for the past few years, and I've come back this time so that you can taste that feeling too, and I've put those things in a place of absolute safety, and you're never going to want to get them!"
Flo, whose identity was recognized, no longer hesitated, and threw out his backpack to the crowd, because he had emptied most of the things inside, the backpack was not heavy at this time, and he was easily thrown above the heads of the crowd two meters away, and the next second he stepped back, took out a small remote control from the left pocket, gritted his teeth and roared,
"You all deserve to die!"
Shout~
The sound of breaking the air sounded.
A pebble shot out of the chaotic crowd and hit Flo's left hand holding the controller, and the sudden stinging pain caused several of his fingers to instinctively flick open and clench, and the remote control fell to the ground.
By the time Flo bent down to pick it up, Zhu Jue had already rushed out of the team and came to his side, grabbing the backpack that had just been thrown out with one hand and pressing the former's shoulder with the other.
"Hey, don't mess with my plans!"
Lowered his voice and whispered in Flo's ear.
Finally blended into the crowd, and was about to uncover the secrets hidden by these people, how could Flo interrupt at this time, so the moment he took out the remote control, Zhu Jue picked up a stone on the ground, standing in the middle of the line, he was only less than five meters away from Flo, and the accurate hit of the stone was in his expectation.
Flo, who was about to struggle, froze and looked up at the man in front of him, and happened to see his face change like quicksand, and for two seconds it became his familiar face.
The frightened Flo fell backwards to the ground, and Zhu Jue took the opportunity to pick up the remote control on the ground in his hand, put it into the pocket under the black robe without a trace, and then looked back at the group of people.
"Glenn, you're doing well, what's in your backpack?"
The black-robed man holding the bamboo basket glanced at Zhu Jue with appreciation, and the Glenn he said in his mouth should be the name of the person Zhu Jue replaced.
Pretending to open the zipper, Zhu Jue deliberately turned sideways, blocked the sight of those behind him with his black robe, glanced at the things inside, and a ball of sand fell into the palm of his hand.
"Bomb, the bomb prepared by this man who has turned his back on the Lord!"
After speaking, he didn't wait for the other party's reply, pretending to be angry and threw the backpack directly on the side of the road, and then continued,
"What to do with him now, tie him up here and interrogate him when we get back......"
"No, I have lost patience with him, and he who does not worship the Lord and is not worthy to exist with us in the world, let him follow us to the altar!"
Zhu Jue's proposal was directly rejected, and the black-robed man obviously did not intend to let him go again.
"Don't talk, come with me. ”
Zhu Jue, who didn't plan to "tear his face" with them for the time being, did not object, but pulled Flo's arm and took him with him.
Flo, who came back to his senses, also put on a frustrated and desperate expression very cooperatively, and entered the team with his head down.
The team moved on.
Wait for the footsteps to disappear deeper into the jungle.
A cloud of sand and gravel in the abandoned backpack turned into a sand dog and came out, and its body swelled as it picked up the backpack and chased in the direction of the team's departure.
