Chapter 65: The True Fox Sacrifice Ceremony
"What's going on, the fox fairy has come down the mountain? He's coming out of the hole to see her new maid? Fat Wei said softly.
"Let's go check it out! You can't see death without help, you say? Chen Zhi asked Fat Wei.
"You can do it, aren't you in charge?" Fat Wei looked at Chen Zhi with a smile, tightened his trouser pocket and said, "Don't worry about me, when Lao Tzu used to fight, he had seen more scary things than this!" ”
Chen Zhi nodded and took the lead in walking forward. A few people didn't dare to make too loud noises, and slowly walked forward by touching the cold rocks, for fear of alarming something in the dark.
The wind on the mountain was too hard, and the cold air condensed in Chen Zhi's throat, and Chen Zhi felt that it was difficult for him to breathe through his nose. In the cold wind, Chen Zhi clearly heard the breathing of an animal, the sound was very loud, and this sound gave people a huge sense of oppression in the dead primeval forest.
Just as Chen Zhi and the others slowly walked towards the stone slab in the afterglow of the torch. Suddenly, in the silent darkness, there was a piercing scream of Spring Blossom, which pierced into Chen Zhi's eardrums like an arrow, making people collapse miserably, and people could feel the huge pain in her body.
Chen Zhi and the three of them immediately stopped, the cold sweat on Chen Zhi's head began to break out, and he looked at Fat Wei behind him, who was already squatting under the rock and hidden. After Chunhua screamed, there was no sound, there was still silence all around, only the huge "whooping" sound remained, Chen Zhi didn't dare to go forward again, but climbed on a rock next to him, climbed on it and looked.
It was still pitch black ahead, the torches had basically been extinguished, only one remained, and the light of the fire was still very faint, as if something was in front of it, and it was impossible to see anything clearly.
At this moment, only a "poof" sound was heard, and there seemed to be a huge thing flashing in the wind, and in the moonlight, Chen Zhi vaguely saw a black shadow, huge in size, as tall as a floor.
Just when Chen Zhi wondered if his eyes were spent, the mountains shook again, and the black shadow disappeared into the forest. On the previous stone slab, by the faint light of the fire, Chen Zhi saw Chunhua's terrifying face, the muscles on her face were distorted, her mouth was wide open, her tongue was spit out, the whites of her eyes were turned up and she couldn't see her eyes, and the flesh on her face was blue and purple, she should have died.
Chen Zhima Shan jumped down from the rock and told Fat Wei and the ghost knife what he saw. A few people looked around to make sure there was nothing dangerous before slowly walking towards the stone slab.
When he arrived at the place of the slate, Chen Zhi shone around with a flashlight, here is a large bluestone slab that has been polished artificially, the slate is carved with fox patterns, all of them are very large, some are transformed into human shapes, some are gnawing humans, and the carvings are very fine. There was an incense burner for the memorial service next to it, and Haruka was lying there sideways, her hands still tied. The flesh on his body had been torn away, Sensen's bones were exposed on his thighs, and the slate was full of intestines and minced meat. Haruka's face was completely distorted and deformed from the intense pain, and it was hard to see what she was supposed to be.
Chen Zhi's heart twitched, Chunhua'er's death was too miserable, and at this time, there was a feeling of guilt blocking Chen Zhi's heart.
"Let's go! When a person dies, he is a corpse, and we can't do anything. Fat Wei said. It's not safe here now, do you see the shadow just now? I seem to see a big thing, and this may be a living altar for the gods, and if that big thing comes back, none of us will be able to escape." Fat Wei had already drawn his short knife and kept looking into the mountains.
Chen Zhi nodded, he glanced back at Chunhua'er, and saw that her throat was still gushing with blood, holding something tightly in her hand, her hand was already stiff, Chen Zhi broke her hand hard, it was a pinch of white hair, Chen Zhi took out the hair and put it in his pocket.
Several people jumped down from the stone slabs, ran quickly into the dense forest, found a hidden place to hide, and discussed the future itinerary.
"What now? Shall we go down the hill or continue walking? Damn, it turns out that this is the real fox sacrifice ceremony! Those villagers are really crazy, take their own daughters to feed the fox fairy, damn! Really dedicated. Fat Wei said.
Chen Zhi continued: "I estimate that this so-called fox fairy may be in the deep mountains, and it is likely to be a huge beast. The real fox sacrifice ceremony is held once every ten years, and the selected priestesses are estimated to have entered the fox hole and have not returned. ”
"Come back with a fart! It's all fucking for the fox fairy to eat. I guess the same is true of the leaves and the ears of wheat. Fat Wei said discouragedly.
Chen Zhi shook his head and said, "The two of them are different, the people in the village think that their sisters have the blood of fox fairies, and their identities should not be priestesses." ”
"Don't think about it now, will we go up now? Is there really a fox fairy in the fox hole on the mountain? Depend on! Was the big guy who ate people just now? Fat Wei asked Chen Zhi anxiously, and Chen Zhi found that Fat Wei had been a little frizzy since he knew that Ye Zi was missing.
Chen Zhi shook his head and said: "In this era, even if there are gods, they will not appear easily, and what Lord Leopard said last time is very clear, according to all the information, the gods should have completely disappeared thousands of years ago, and Bai Qian should have died a long time ago." I guess what I saw just now was a large beast in the mountains. But this beast is very strange, I don't remember that there is such a big beast, it can grow this kind of hair", Chen Zhi finished speaking and took out the animal hair that he had just taken out in Chunhua'er's hand, the hair was snow-white and very shiny, very similar to the hair of a white fox.
"What do you mean now, are we going up the mountain or not going up? There may be a big fox waiting for us above, if you are caught as a son-in-law, I can't save you" Fat Wei looked at Chen Zhi with a gesture.
Chen Zhi turned his head and asked the Ghost Knife, "Last time in the basement, I saw that you were very good at fighting with the bloody people, do you have any experience in fighting large animals?" If there's a big one-story guy up there, can you handle it? ”
The ghost knife glanced at Chen Zhi, lowered his head and said, "When I was in the basement, because I was injured in my arm before, my movements were slow, and now it's okay." ”
Chen Zhi thought for a moment and said, "Before we go up the mountain!" Qin Yueyang told me that there may be a witchcraft array in the village, which is very dangerous. But we didn't know the exact location of the fox hole, we didn't know how far the trip was, we didn't have any equipment with us, and we had limited food. The most important thing is that we are not familiar with the roads in the mountains, and it is easy to get lost, so we recommend going back to the cowshed in the village first! Grab some gear and make plans. ”
