Chapter 39 Who Stole the Life of the Mountain
Collect! Ask for a commuter pass!
The villagers of Jin Village have basically settled down, and Jin Ren has performed his duties as a patriarch to appease the villagers and stabilize people's hearts.
Several old people sat together and discussed the future life of the villagers. A few young people packed up the things to worship their ancestors, and most of them sat next to the cemetery, waiting for the patriarch's arrangement.
"Mom, I'm hungry."
The children were not worried about the great changes in the mountain village, and they quickly came out of the fright, and they cried out when they felt hungry.
"Let the children eat something, and they will eat the offerings. There are pastries and fruits, don't go hungry kids. ”
"No, it's ancestral food, and you can't give it to children." Said the oldest man in the village.
"Our village is already like this, don't pay attention to this, come here, divide the things and let the children eat." Jin Ren instructed the women in the village to distribute offerings.
"Patriarch, what should we do next?" A young man in the village asked.
"There is no good way to do it all at once, so in order to prevent another accident and let the elderly, women and children stay here, you and I will go to the village to see if we can find some daily necessities, and everyone will go."
With so many people gathered here, although there is no danger to their lives, it is not possible to do without food and daily necessities, so we have to find a way. Jin Ren led the young adults in the village to the mountain village that had been destroyed.
The original village is no longer visible, and all the stones made from the broken peaks are buried and covered, and even the farmland and fruit forests outside the village have not been spared.
"Patriarch, what should I do?" The people in the village surrounded Jin Ren one after another, asking for his opinion, and they also needed him to take ideas.
"In this way, we will act separately, I will take two people to the county seat to ask for help, and the rest of the people will be divided into two teams, one team will protect the elderly and women and children, and the other team will look for food, so let's go now."
After arranging, Jin Ren immediately took two people to the county seat. The road out of the mountain has been destroyed, and the three of them walked and climbed, and it took a lot of effort to finally get out of the mountain.
"Patriarch, look!"
The three of them looked at the situation outside the mountain and were dumbfounded.
It turned out that only Jin Village had a catastrophe, and the five mountain peaks around Jin Village collapsed, and there was no accident in other places outside the mountain village. This is not what an earthquake should be, it is not a natural phenomenon. It is also impossible to be a man-made phenomenon, who has the ability to knock down five peaks at the same time.
What's even more incredible is that the five peaks collapsed inward at the same time, as if an invisible force was bringing the peaks together to complete the task of burying the mountain village.
Jin Ren knew that there was danger, but he didn't know the inside story, and it was impossible for the villagers in the mountain village to know about the situation in the mountains and beyond the mountains. Jin Shan has left, Long Yang is at school, and the two of them know something, but unfortunately they are not around.
In fact, five peaks are five fingers, and the collapse of five peaks is five fingers clenched together.
In the past, five mountain peaks surrounded the village, shielding them from the wind and rain, and were the natural barrier and guardian spirit of the mountain village, but now they have changed their identities and acted as messengers of life.
Fortunately, I obeyed Jin Shan's arrangement, otherwise it would have been a big disaster! The more Jin Ren thought about it, the more frightened he became, and only then did he realize the seriousness and consequences of the landslide burying the village, and a cold sweat broke out on his spine.
"Let's go first, we'll talk about that later." Jin Ren didn't want to think about it any further, so he hurriedly left with the two of them.
When the three of them hurriedly ran away, two figures disappeared nearby.
They were observing the situation in Jin Village, and when they learned that there were no casualties in Jin Village, they were disappointed and left quickly.
Jin Ren and the three of them did not rest much on the road, and came to the county seat in one go, found the leader of the county commune, and reported the disaster that had occurred in Jin Village and the current difficulties of Jin Village.
After learning that Jin Village had suffered an unwarranted disaster, the county immediately held a rescue meeting to arrange rescue personnel and relief materials, and implement the housing and food problems of the villagers.
Personnel and materials are being transported to the mountains one after another, and the problem of habitability is a big problem. Although there are not many people in Jin Village, there are more than 100 people, old and young, men and women, large and small. And this matter must be implemented immediately, and the personnel need to be resettled immediately, and more than 100 people cannot be allowed to live in the open air for a long time.
The leaders of Pingxian County were nervously discussing countermeasures, Jin Ren was anxiously standing in the reception room waiting for news, and the other two people had already returned with the rescue team, and they wanted to lead the way. The procession marched all the way to the mountain village, carrying simple tents and food.
The matter finally came to an end, and the people of Jin Village would be arranged to live in idle houses in the western suburbs of the county. These houses existed before the founding of the People's Republic of China, and later because the new county town was built, the houses were idle and have been uninhabited. Considering that these houses are basically complete and that although the houses are old, they are still sturdy and usable, it was given priority.
The villagers of Jin Village finally had a place to live, and Jin Ren was also relieved. There is no need to go back immediately, just wait for everyone to come to the resettlement site. Jin Ren thought about informing Long Yang and arranging a house for the child, in case Jin Qin came back one day, the mother and daughter would also have a place to stay. There is also Jin Shan, who also needs a place, thinking about these headaches, Jin Ren, the patriarch, is a little uncomfortable.
Jin Ren successfully found Longyang and told him what happened in the mountain village, and Longyang didn't expect things to develop to such a point. There was nothing left in the village except people. If I knew this was the case, I should have moved something out. Jin Ren touched the jade cane in his arms, hey, he only came out with this ancestral thing, and there was nothing else. If it weren't for the ancestor worship, he wouldn't even bring out the jade cane.
It has only been two or three years since the discovery that the mountain has lost its aura and vitality, and in such a short period of time, it has hollowed out five mountains, what is going on, who has such great ability, and who stole the aura and vitality of the mountain?
Long Yang was puzzled, and at this time, no one discussed countermeasures with him, so he could only rely on himself to speculate and investigate.
The first problem to be discovered was the mountain where Jin Shan lived, and then it spread to several other mountains, until in the end, the five mountains lost all their aura and vitality, and became rotten rocks, a dangerous existence.
Long Yang tried to clear his mind, from the beginning to the present.
If it is the reason for the existence of the mountain itself, then there will only be a problem with one peak, and there will be problems with five peaks one after another, unless there is an external reason, and there is an inexplicable force that is extracting the vitality of the mountain. But what is this power, and where is the source?
Five mountains were poured down into the mountain village at the same time, with the aim of destroying the village and the people in the village, was it the power of the curse or the enemy? How powerful and immeasurable this enemy will be.
Long Yang shook his head vigorously, the more he thought about it, the more he realized that there were too many secrets and conspiracies inside, and he couldn't crack it with his current ability. For now, we can only put it on hold and talk about it later.
Long Yang asked the school teacher for leave and followed Jin Ren to the western suburbs of the county where they would live in the future.
