Lao Sun Tou's parents died when he was a child, and he was raised by his uncle, and he has been living a life under the fence, which causes him to be timid and cowardly, but at the same time he has a kind character. He was not accustomed to the cruel killing of strangers by the villagers, but he did not dare to resist, but he just kept away from these evil acts as much as possible, and barely survived on his own few acres of land.

But the villagers could not tolerate his self-purity, and when he was in his twenties, the village chief tied up a lost pedestrian to him and forced him to kill the poor stranger. The old grandson was hindered by the obscenity of everyone, and in desperation, he raised his knife and killed the stranger.

Speaking of this, Lao Sun Tou's voice was already a little trembling due to guilt, and his spirit seemed to have collapsed. Qi Lu hurriedly comforted him in a low voice, and at the same time gritted his teeth with hatred for that evil god.

The old grandson sat on the stone with a pang, trying to calm his mood as much as possible, and at the end he went on to speak.

Since then, the old grandson has not slept a few peaceful nights, and often dreams in his dreams that the stranger he killed is standing in front of him in blood and asking for his life. He was so frightened that in order to avoid being forced to commit such a sin again, he came up with an idea, which was to wear a white coat all day long, talk nonsense when he saw people, and pretend to be crazy and stupid everywhere.

The people in the village thought he was crazy, and he had other people's blood on his hands anyway, and the village chief was not worried that he would tell the secrets of the village, so he relaxed his supervision, canceled all the benefits of the old grandson, and left him to fend for himself.

Although the old grandson escaped the catastrophe and no longer joined the villagers, his strategy also left a sequelae, that is, none of the girls in the village wanted to marry a madman. The old grandson lived alone like this, and finally became an old bachelor.

About two years ago, the god who had blessed the village sent a message through the village chief, saying that the end of the world was coming, and that he would lead everyone to the Pure Land of Bliss to escape the catastrophe of the end of the world. However, the Pure Land of Bliss is only open to the gods, and mortal bodies cannot reach there, and he needs more human sacrifices to improve his divine powers, so that he can have the power to bring the whole village to that paradise.

Qi Lu couldn't help but sneer when he heard this, and said: "This is the common point of cults, at first give you some sweetness to taste, and when you believe it, you will start to fabricate false reasoning and heresies, and use various means to create panic and a terrifying atmosphere, so that members will follow fanatically and blindly, so as to achieve ulterior purposes." ”

"yes, I don't believe in apocalyptic nonsense." Speaking of this, the old grandson wiped a handful of tears, and then said: "Since then, I have been thinking about leaving this village, but what happened later made me unbearable to leave. ”

Qi Lu was shocked and asked, "What happened in the village?" ”

It turns out that the village of Charbagh is a remote place, and it is basically unfrequented all year round, except for some self-driving tours and lost tourists. Since the evil god gave an order, the villagers naturally did not dare to disobey it, and they actually came up with an idea to lure tourists to take the initiative to come to the door.

"Are you saying that they made some of the gold bars into fake ingots, and then let out the wind and let tourists go to the pool to fish for treasures?" Qi Lu's heart tightened suddenly.

"Yes."

Qi Lu suddenly woke up, many clues came together, and he felt that he was getting closer and closer to the truth. In a trance, he heard Lao Sun Tou continue: "Those who have caught the ingots have made a fortune on the surface, but in fact they are human sacrifices chosen by the evil gods, and the villagers will not let them go, and these people will eventually lose their lives because of this." ”

Lao Wu asked next to him: "Didn't anyone escape?" ”

"Even if someone senses that there are ghosts in the village who want to escape at night, there are no people in the area for dozens of miles, and it is easy for the villagers to catch up and capture them. What's more, there are servants of evil gods who are helping the villagers, so as soon as these people enter the village, they are equivalent to entering the ghost gate. ”

"Oh, I see!" A sneer curled up on Qi Lu's lips, "The doglegs of those evil gods you are talking about are the demon beasts that were killed just now, right?" ”

"Yes." Old Sun Tou remembered the terrifying scene just now, and his body involuntarily shivered a few times. "I watched these innocent people die unjustly, and I sympathized with their misery, but I didn't dare to confront the villagers, I would only wander around the village gate every day, and when I saw someone coming in, I pretended to be a ghost and scared them, hoping that they would notice it and stay away from this evil place."

No wonder when he first entered the village, the old grandson pretended to be mysterious in front of him, and it turned out that he was secretly helping himself! Qi Lu's eyes couldn't help but have more respect for him.

Lao Wu asked a key sentence at this time: "You said that the dead are the people who have fished the ingots, so there are always people who have not caught things, are these people dead or alive?" ”

"These people are not human sacrifices that the evil gods are interested in, and they can all leave here safely."

"Isn't it true that the villagers are not afraid that a few of them will be smart enough to detect the secrets of the village?"

"It's not a matter of a day or two for the villagers to do these things, and they are so skillful in cooperation that ordinary people can't find out at all. Take the hotel's boss Du, for example, who is good at imitating anyone's handwriting, and he forged the signatures of the last statements of the murdered tourists. ”

"They even thought of this detail, no wonder I didn't see the flaw at the time." Qi Lu sighed and said, "No wonder we live in the hotel, and the waiter doesn't even want an ID card!" Instead, they repeatedly emphasized some strange rules, because they were afraid that we would find out about their evil deeds. ”

Lao Wu had a different idea from Qi Lu, and he raised a new question: "Listening to what you said, the village has killed a lot of people, and no matter how stupid the tourists are, it is impossible not to find clues about the bodies of the victims." ”

"Do you know that the altar for sacrificing to the evil god is in a secret passage underground, and the villagers buried it there after killing people, how could outsiders find out!"

Qi Lu hurriedly asked, "Where is this secret passage?" ”

"Inside the Taoist temple, the mechanism for opening the door is very secret, only a few people know about it, and even I have secretly observed it many times, but I have not found the location of the secret door."

Hearing this, Qi Lu couldn't help but glance at Lao Wu, and Lao Wu's eyes looking back at him clearly implied that the entrance to the bloody altar was the location near the corner that he found in the Taoist temple today.

The old grandson said: "This is not a Taoist temple dedicated to the Jade Emperor at all, the villagers are just using this as a cover, in fact, it is a place to worship evil gods, and at the same time, I heard that the workshop that makes fake ingots is also in this secret channel." ”

"I've noticed that." Qi Lu chuckled and said: "That Taoist temple has not been cleaned for many years, but when the villagers found out that I was interested in it, they were afraid of revealing the secret and temporarily arranged for Xiao Li, the waiter of the hotel, to come to the Taoist temple to clean and clean. ”

"yes, you're bragging, aren't you?" Lao Wu said suspiciously: "How did you find out what is strange in it?"

"I sneaked into the counterfeiting workshop at night, when I was waiting for the villagers to come out in the Taoist temple, I hid behind the statue of the Jade Emperor, and I was surprised to find that half of the ground at the base of the statue was swept by a broom and looked clean, while the other side was covered with dust. I didn't figure out what was going on at the time, but then I figured out why. Qi Lu paused for a moment, and then said: "Today, when Xiao Li took us in to ask for a sign, I found that the ground of the statue base was still the same as the last time I saw it, and I suddenly realized that they didn't care about the statue at all!" Their purpose in doing this can only be to use the Taoist temple to cover up the underground secret passage! ”

Yi Hanchuan said at this time: "Since the truth is revealed, you shouldn't object to us joining forces to eradicate this demon now, right?" ”

Qi Lu nodded, no longer expressing disagreement.

Yi Hanchuan hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and said: "You have seen the demon's mana, we are completely at a disadvantage when we face him head-on" He glanced at the old grandson and the widow Zhu, and said more implicitly: "We still gather the parts together, find things first and then deal with the demon, we will be completely sure." ”

"No!" Qi Lu flatly refused.

"Why, don't you still believe in our sincerity?"

"It's not a question of whether you believe it or not, but the secrets of the village haven't been completely solved?" After speaking, Qi Lu turned his eyes to the old grandson.

The old grandson suddenly said knowingly: "I basically said what should be said, what else does Mr. Qi not understand?" As long as I know, I'll tell you. ”

"I want to know about Aunt Zhu's daughter."

"Let Azhu tell you this." The old grandson helped up the widow Zhu, who had been sitting on the stone in a daze.

"My miserable daughter," Widow Zhu began to cry again as soon as she spoke.

Qi Lu let out a long breath, he looked at the sobbing Widow Zhu with unbearable eyes, and understood her feelings very well at the moment. But he couldn't help but uncover this sad scar, because it was not only about the fate of the world, but also about the resurrection of the Kunlun gods.

It was only when Widow Zhu's mood calmed down a little that she talked about what had happened intermittently.

Sure enough, it was similar to Qi Lu's initial assumption, Widow Zhu's daughter Xiaohong was inexplicably pregnant, and the people in the village were secretly gossiping about her. Widow Zhu couldn't raise her head when she heard this rumor, so she discussed with her daughter and decided to kill the unborn baby.

But at that time, Xiaohong dreamed at night that the evil god told her that the baby in her womb was the reincarnation of the god, and that in the future, Xiaohong would be more precious than her mother. If Xiaohong had an abortion, she would not have died well, and her soul would endure all kinds of torture in hell after death.

Xiaohong was originally a simple woman, and after having the same dream for several days in a row, she was so frightened that she immediately changed her mind and insisted on giving birth to this child.

Widow Zhu didn't do it anymore, and Xiaohong didn't know what was going on, since she saw the gods in her dreams, her behavior had become weird, and she often said something inconsequential, which made people hear it in a fog and didn't know what it meant.

The people in the village thought that she had fallen into evil, and in the end, even the village chief couldn't ignore it. He first asked the evil god, but received no response, which made him even more convinced that Xiaohong was possessed by a demon.

Just when the village chief was pondering how to deal with this evil seed, Yi Hanchuan came to the village under Manzhu's order to disguise himself as a fortune teller, ready to wait for an opportunity to get rid of Xiaohong and the unborn child in her womb.
