Chapter 75: Spreading Wild on My Turf, Have You Asked My Opinion?
Under normal circumstances, in the ancestral hall of an ethnic group, the tablets of the ancestors and ancestors are enshrined, even if there are tablets of very powerful people enshrined, they are only divided into the main position and the secondary position.
What kind of powerful origin will squeeze out the tablets of the ancestors and ancestors of the entire Daliu Village, monopolize the entire main hall, and be worshiped by everyone in Daliu Village?
Gu Xiaoxiao was obviously as surprised as me: "Who is this enshrined?" So big? ”
"We don't know either, the rules handed down from our ancestors, all the villagers of Daliu Village must worship this tablet, and no one dares to take off the red cloth on it to see the true face." Liu Jun explained.
I immediately retorted: "Impossible, if the red cloth has not been removed for so many years, how can it be so new and clean?" ”
"We can't explain this," Liu Jun said, "I don't know how many times this ancestral hall has been renovated, in my memory, one year it snowed heavily, the beams of the house were broken, and the ancestral hall was in a mess, but this tablet was spotless, like a lotus flower in the mud and self-cleaning." ”
Gu Xiaoxiao didn't believe it: "Brag, I don't believe that no one has ever opened that red cloth." ”
"Not really." Liu Jun repeatedly defended, "Because the person who tried to uncover the red cloth was either dead or maimed, and the end was particularly miserable, so over time, no matter how curious everyone was, they didn't dare to try it easily." ”
"Such an evil sect?" Gu Xiaoxiao was speechless.
Liu Jun nodded: "But this tablet has indeed saved the villagers of Daliu Village, we respect it very much, and there has never been a shortage of incense offerings, I just hope that this time, it can bless all of us." ”
I'm noncommittal, if this tablet is really so powerful, how can Daliu Village suffer such a fate for many years?
Liu Jun led everyone into the ancestral hall, pious incense and bowed, and then walked towards the east house, Gu Xiaoxiao and I hurriedly followed, only to find that the ancestral tablet of Da Liu Village, retreated to the second, all enshrined in the east house, black pressed one, it looked a little mad.
When everyone had finished worshipping, they all gathered in the Westinghouse.
I was puzzled: "No, there are hundreds of families in Daliu Village, and there should be a lot of old and young women and children, but why are we people?" What about the rest? ”
If all those people were still at home, wouldn't they all suffer when the fog cleared?
"It should all be in the tunnel at the entrance of the village." Liu Jun said, "At the foot of the mountain in the south of Daliu Village, a tunnel was dug a long time ago, which is the farthest from the West Mountain, and there is a stream at the foot of the mountain. ”
I see.
The ancestral hall and the tunnel are the two refuges of the people of Daliu Village, but they are both palliatives but not cures, and it is difficult to say whether they can escape this catastrophe.
-
The mother's bleeding has stopped, the person has been unconscious, and the little baby who has just been born for a long time, I don't know if it is hungry, has been crying.
Something happened suddenly, there was nothing to eat in the ancestral hall, and the mother herself was difficult to protect, where did the milk come from?
But you can't just watch this baby be so hungry, right?
"If only I could send the child to the tunnel, Liu Dajin's daughter-in-law should have milk." The midwife muttered.
But at this juncture, going out is likely to be equivalent to death, most of these people present have families and rooms, even if they are so enthusiastic, they have to think about their families and think about their families.
"I'll go." As I spoke, I stepped forward and took the little baby from the midwife's hand that was red from crying, this is a new life, I can't survive long without eating or drinking.
Gu Xiaoxiao grabbed me: "Ah Li." ”
"It's fine." I smiled at Gu Xiaoxiao and said, "There is no one here who is more capable than me, it's not appropriate for me not to go, Xiaoxiao, you stay here just in case, I'll go and come quickly." ”
Gu Xiaoxiao refused: "Either you don't go, you have to go, I'll be with you." ”
"This is not the time for disputes, Xiaoxiao, the ancestral hall is not safe, if there is really anything, you have to maintain order, besides, we can't put all our eggs in one basket, if I go too long and don't come back, I still expect you to save me." I persuaded.
Liu Jun stood up: "I'll go with you, although I don't have much ability, but I have a lot of strength and familiar terrain, if you really encounter something, my fist can also help you block it for a while." ”
I couldn't help but look at this Liu Jun with admiration, from being in the mourning hall just now, to now he can stand up and volunteer to accompany me on an adventure, what he says and does is admirable.
Although I don't want anyone to accompany me on the adventure, I am not familiar with the terrain of Daliu Village, and I can't determine where the tunnel is at once.
Nowadays, time is of the essence.
Thinking of this, I agreed, with Liu Jun by my side, Gu Xiaoxiao didn't insist, but just told me to be careful.
But when we decided to go out, we ran into another problem - the child was crying too much, so it was easy to attract some dirty things.
From birth to the present, there is no milk to eat, no diapers, just wrapped in a blanket, there is no way to clean up after urinating, children can't speak, and the most direct way to express discomfort is to cry.
I also had no experience in taking care of such a young child, and when my head was too big, the midwife said to me, "Put your finger in the child's mouth, maybe you can resist it for a while, and then you will have food in the tunnel." ”
I put my left index finger into the child's mouth, and the little one quickly wrapped it, and we were relieved that we didn't cry.
But before he could get out, he cried again, probably because he couldn't get the milk, and collapsed, and no matter how much he stuffed his fingers into his mouth, it was useless.
The midwife groaned and said: "Girl, I know that some requests are made, I'm afraid it's a bit rude, but at this time, I have to say, besides, saving someone's life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, and the girl is also accumulating blessings for herself by making a little sacrifice, isn't it?" ”
"You say, what do you want me to do, I'll do my best." I said.
"Feed the blood." The midwife didn't dare to look at me, "This is the best way at the moment, he is small, he can't suck much, and he ...... wait until he gets to the tunnel."
"I see."
As I spoke, I bit my left index finger and stuffed it into the baby's mouth, and he sucked in the liquid and stopped crying.
"Let's go." I said to Liu Jun.
Liu Jun's face froze, and he nodded: "It's hard work." ”
-
Liu Jun and I took the baby out of the ancestral hall and ran all the way to the east, Liu Jun's goal was very clear, he walked on the path behind the house, and he couldn't see the road clearly at night, but Liu Jun had lived here for so many years, and the route had already been familiar with it.
At this time, I am glad that no one came out, otherwise, I would have to lose my head in a hurry now.
Liu Jun and I didn't speak, but it was obvious that he had tried his best to accommodate my pace, but fortunately, I already had a little internal strength in my body, and I could keep up.
The little baby in my arms was wrapped in my blood for a while, and after a few mouthfuls, it was already full, and after crying for so long and tired, it fell asleep holding my fingers.
My fingers were numb, but I didn't dare to take them back, for fear that he would wake up and cry again.
But just when we were about two-thirds of the way away, Liu Jun in front of us suddenly stopped moving.
He was tall and big, and I followed him, and I couldn't see what was going on in front of me in the night, and my intuition was not good.
The next moment, I heard Liu Jun say in a deep voice: "Run." ”
This word made my scalp tingle, but I didn't expect to be targeted.
I definitely can't run, I finally got here, I can't fall short, I pulled Liu Jun away, and then I saw a person standing not far in front of me.
The clothes on the man's body were tattered, but he could still vaguely see that the 'longevity' pattern on the clothes was a longevity shirt at a glance.
He stood there, looking at us fixedly, his face was tattered and terrifying.
This is not a person, but a corpse crawling out of the grave, for some unknown reason, causing him to come out and make trouble long after he died, but I am sure that he is not the only one in Daliu Village.
I glanced at my hand and stuffed the child into Liu Jun's arms: "You take the child and send it to the tunnel, I'll lead this guy away." ”
"You don't want to die? Do you think this is the only one around? "Liu Jun refused to leave me.
I shook my head: "It's because I know that there must be more than this one around, I can't go with you, my hand is broken, and the smell of blood will soon attract a group of such terrible guys, you will only be affected if you follow me, you send the children away, I will be a bait to lure them away, and we will go back to the ancestral hall as soon as possible to meet." ”
The guy on the other side leaned towards us step by step, he didn't look fierce, he should have just come out, and he didn't know how to hunt yet.
But this state of affairs will not last long, and soon we will be attacked, and it will be impossible to fight for the opportunity to send Liu Jun and them away at that time.
I pushed Liu Jun again, pulled out the whip, and said, "You didn't see the good whip I threw in the mourning hall before, right?" It won't cost me much to deal with this low-grade walking corpse, you just need to make sure that the child is safely delivered to the place. ”
Before the corpse in the mourning hall, Liu Jun, as a member of the group who was invited to help lift the weight, couldn't have been unaware, so seeing my momentum, he was immediately convinced, and the baby in his arms began to writhe constantly, and he was afraid that he would cry again, so he had to say: "Then I'll go, you must be careful yourself." ”
"Okay, I'll clear the way for you." As I spoke, I walked past him, lifted the whip in my hand, and flung it at the guy across from me without hesitation.
As I expected, with a whip down, the guy broke in two and fell to the ground with a bang, his body constantly emitting black smoke and stenching everywhere.
Liu Jun ran forward with the child in his arms, and I followed him to protect him, but after a while, three walking corpses suddenly emerged from the darkness.
I can't help it, there is still a distance of about 500 meters from the entrance of the village, and in this distance, how many walking corpses are hidden, none of us can say, it depends on how many of the ancestors and ancestors buried in Daliu Village have not been decomposed so far.
Therefore, cremation is really necessary, otherwise I don't know how many years later, those who are buried will be summoned to do evil.
As soon as I gritted my teeth, I bit the wound on my left index finger again, and the blood immediately overflowed.
The fresh blood aroused the craving worms in the throats of the walking corpses, and for a while, several more hula emerged from the darkness.
As soon as I shook my hand, a few drops of blood were thrown out to the left rear, and the walking corpses immediately pounced.
"Let's go." I yelled at Liu Jun, who was stunned.
Liu Jun sighed fiercely, hugged the child and ran forward quickly.
I followed for a hundred meters, pinching my index finger all the time, letting the blood keep falling, and attracting the walking corpses to the east as much as possible.
There are not many walking corpses in the east, after all, it is close to the entrance of the village, and the cemetery of Daliu Village is in the west, and more people are buried in the West Mountain, and it takes a long time for the walking corpses to walk from the west to the east, so the scattered here must be far less than the west.
No matter how few, there were more than a dozen bodies gathered around, and they rushed towards me with a roar.
At first, I tried my best, and I was able to solve it with a whip, but the number of them accumulated, and gradually, I began to be a little overwhelmed.
Although this short whip is easy to use, each whip requires me to use my meager internal force to cooperate with my mental method to control it, and my little internal force storage will soon be exhausted.
With the consumption of internal force, the effect of the whip thrown out is also degrading step by step, and the situation is getting worse and worse.
In this short period of time, I estimated that Liu Jun should be not far from the tunnel, so I turned around and ran towards the west.
I didn't go back to the ancestral hall as agreed with Liu Jun, but ran towards the mourning hall.
After the mourning hall was ignited, the flames that rose to the sky burned for a while, and this time it had already died down, after all, the house was not very big.
I want to see what the situation is going on over there, and I want to find out if the people who entered Xishan have escaped back, or if they are all under control like the people we saw at the gate of the mourning hall before.
The most important thing is to see if Grandpa Gu and Mo Xianye are there.
It's just that the farther I run west, the more I stare at my walking corpse, and the more my brow furrows.
At that time, I was in no mood to think about fighting these many walking corpses anymore, after all, there were so many of them, I knew I couldn't fight.
At the time, I wondered, why is there so much of it?
Could it be that the ancestors of Daliu Village didn't rot away?
Something is wrong, something is very wrong.
After running back a few hundred meters, in the distance, I saw a white smear in front of me, and suddenly stopped.
I could be sure it was a man standing there, but I couldn't be sure if he was a human being.
If it were a person, it would be a little unreasonable in terms of clothing and the time and place of appearance, if it weren't for a person, he would be very different from the appearance of the walking corpses before.
Knowing that the walking corpse that takes care of its appearance, it is definitely not a beginner-level walking corpse.
I didn't dare to move, just stood there and stared at the whiteness.
Yun Sheng also likes to wear such a white robe, the jade tree is in the wind, and he is handsome like a handsome boy who has walked down from an ancient picture scroll, but he is such a person, and he has made me miserable.
And the white in front of him, half a height than Yun Sheng, but a little more slender, just when I looked at him, he slowly turned around.
Strangely, even though his face was already on me, the distance between us was only a few tens of meters, and I couldn't even see his facial features clearly.
It's blurry, like a veil.
All I saw was a fan in his hand, the fan was open, and the painting on the surface of the fan looked like a rolling mountain.
His hand floated slightly, and the fan swayed slightly, indescribably elegant.
"Come here." A beautiful voice rang out, lingering in my ears and bewitching me.
Subconsciously, I raised my feet and was about to walk that way, but suddenly a spirit suddenly awakened.
This man...... It doesn't seem simple.
I just looked at him like this, my mind was almost out of my control, what kind of demon is this?
I wanted to retreat, but the walking corpses behind me were waiting for me, and I couldn't get out.
I didn't have the guts to step forward.
Just as I hesitated, the man chuckled, "Afraid of me? ”
I didn't speak, but he said, "Can I still eat you?" ”
"Who are you? What do you want to do? I asked vigilantly, though I felt like I was asking nonsense.
Bad people will never take the initiative to label themselves as bad people.
The man was not annoyed, he raised his feet and walked towards me, one step, one step, not much, unhurried, the fan in his hand was gently fanning, but the face was ......
I can't see it clearly.
Seeing that the distance between us was less than ten meters, I flicked my whip and threw it down to the ground in front of me, the loud sound of the whip echoing in the empty village, and I yelled at him: "Don't come! ”
Only then did he stand on his feet and hummed softly: "The little girl has a big temper, but she is spreading wild on my territory, have you asked my opinion?" ”
His turf?
Why don't I understand that?
Could he be the village chief of Daliu Village? Even if it is the village head, he doesn't dare to be so arrogant to include Daliu Village in his pocket?
But then something came to mind.
The villagers of Daliu Village have been worshipping a guardian saint, and the big tablet is covered with a red cloth that will never get old and dirty, and no one dares to open the red cloth to see the true face of Lushan Mountain.
But he protects the safety of the villagers of Daliu Village to a certain extent, can it be seen that Daliu Village is his territory?
Could it be that this person in front of him is the original god of the tablet?
The more you think about it, the more likely it is.
If my guess is correct, then he should be a friend.
Thinking of this, my defense slowly disappeared, and he instantly caught the change in my mood, and said: "The little girl is brave and resourceful, and she deserves to be commended." ”
"Since you say this is your territory, how can you allow those walking corpses to do evil on your territory?"
"Also, does your territory only include Daliu Village, not Xishan?"
"Or is it that Xishan is also your territory, but you can't fight others, so you can only curl up in the acre and three points of land in Daliu Village, Gu Ying feels sorry for himself?"
I was a bit overkill, but I didn't have much time to play hide and seek with him, so I was able to determine as quickly as possible if the other person was friend or foe.
He was silent for a moment, and I could feel the anger that appeared around him instantly, and the powerful aura frightened me.
If it weren't for the fact that I had been with Mo Xian for a long time and was used to this kind of atmosphere, I would have been so frightened that my legs trembled.
But that anger was fleeting, and the man moved in front of me instantly, grabbed my left hand, put his index finger to the tip of his nose, took a deep breath, and reveled: "It's so fragrant." ”
At that moment, I had only one word in my head - perverted.
I tried hard to pull my hand back, but he squeezed it so tightly that I couldn't pull it back, and the wound on my index finger was dripping with blood, and he sucked it into my mouth without being guarded.
I raised my foot and beckoned to him, and he blocked it with one hand, and on the other side, he had already bit my index finger and sucked my blood hard.
I could feel the blood all over my body constantly converging towards my left index finger, all the muscles and veins were aching, I wanted to resist but couldn't, and I desperately realized that this guy in front of me might not be a good thing.
Maybe he is the demon hiding in the West Mountain, and he is the one who does evil.
At this moment, a black shadow rushed over, punched the man in white's face, and easily protected me behind me.
I was stunned for a moment, and then I shouted: "Mo Xianye, you are finally back." ”
"Why are you so bold?" Mo Xianye taught me a lesson, I lowered my head aggrievedly, shrank behind him, tilted my head slightly, and looked at the man in white who was beaten.
At this glance, I was shocked again.
The man who couldn't see his face clearly is now clear and clear, with a jade-like face and full of heroism, which is very different from his body style.
He wiped the corner of his mouth with his hand, and his eyes were full of anger: "Who are you?" Dare to hit me! ”
"You touched my woman, and it was you who hit me!" Mo Xianye did not back down.
The man in white sneered: "Your woman? ”
After speaking, his figure flashed, and he suddenly rushed forward to arrest me: "Little girl, follow me." ”
"Look for death!" Mo Xianye pushed me aside and greeted me.
The two sides didn't say a word, they fought together, Mo Xianye was powerful enough, but the man in white was not weak, but I looked at it, but I found that Mo Xianye had reservations.
Why?
He was obviously angry, so why did he keep a hand?
I was looking at it puzzled, over there, someone ran over, I fixed my eyes, who was it not Grandpa Gu?
I hurriedly greeted him and shouted, "Grandpa Gu, are you okay?" ”
"It's fine." Grandpa Gu said, looked to the side, and asked, "What about Xiaoxiao?" ”
"Xiaoxiao is in the ancestral hall, there are a lot of people over there, it should be fine." I said.
Grandpa Gu nodded, turned to look at Mo Xianye, and when he saw the man in white fighting with Mo Xianye, he gasped, and then shouted, "Don't fight, you can't fight." ”
"Why?" I asked Grandpa Gu, "That guy is not a good person." ”
Grandpa Gu waved his hand: "Wrong, wrong, stop, don't turn your friends into enemies!" ”
