Gu Qiubai quietly got out of bed, and his mind became vigilant. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"It's a pity that it hasn't reached the foundation building period yet, otherwise you would have been able to generate spiritual consciousness and investigate the surrounding situation." Gu Qiubai sighed secretly.
He didn't go out immediately, but waited for the movement outside to calm down before opening the door and preparing to go out to find out.
Such a big wind and snow, but secretly running out at one or two o'clock in the morning, and then thinking of the situation that I sensed before, it is impossible to be weird.
Gu Qiubai is in his heart, the so-called art master is bold, with his current cultivation, even if the youth of the entire village go together, he may not be able to beat him.
However, when Gu Qiubai had just opened the door and was about to walk out of the courtyard, there was a slight noise upstairs.
Gu Qiubai said "Huh" lightly, listening to the footsteps just now, the village chief's family seemed to have gone out, so who is this upstairs?
"Let's go up and have a look, it should be fine."
Gu Qiubai had already decided to investigate to the end, and he didn't want to let go of anything suspicious.
Quietly going upstairs, the upstairs is very shabby, there are discarded bricks everywhere, it is very dim, and it looks a little eerie.
Gu Qiubai's brows furrowed, this didn't look like a place where the villagers lived at all.
Finally, Gu Qiubai found the source of the sound in a room!
"I heard a voice coming up, do you need any help?" Gu Qiubai sorted out the wording and spoke.
"Help, save me......" A faint woman's voice came from the room.
When Gu Qiubai heard this voice, he gasped, what is the situation?
He pushed the door, and there was a creaking sound, but it didn't open.
The door is locked!
Gu Qiubai looked at it, it was an old-fashioned wooden door, and a black lock hung on the wooden door.
But how can this be difficult to disappoint Gu Qiubai, as soon as he exerts a little force, the lock is directly pulled out by Gu Qiubai and thrown aside.
As soon as Gu Qiubai opened the door, a foul smell accompanied by a commotion came to his face, making him can't help but wave his hand to dispel the smell.
An unkempt girl sat on the ground, and when she saw the door opened, she was about to run outside!
Gu Qiubai stopped her, letting her go out at this time would definitely attract attention.
He tried to keep his tone as calm as possible: "I'm here to rescue you out, don't worry, tell me what's going on, how did you end up in this village chief's house?" ā
The girl looked panicked, trembling all over, and whispered, "IāI was abducted here by bad people." ā
Abduction and trafficking of women?!
I rub!
Gu Qiubai's face changed suddenly, he had seen a lot of such reports on the Internet.
Some girls who are not deeply involved in the world will be deceived or threatened by human traffickers in poor rural areas, and then sold to local villagers as wives!
Gu Qiubai looked at the room, there was only a dilapidated bed, eating and drinking Lazar were all solved here, no wonder the taste was so big.
He couldn't help but feel a wave of anger in his heart, which was completely challenging the dark side of human nature.
"What's your name?" Gu Qiubai crossed the spiritual power in his body a little and comforted her, "How long have you been here?" ā
The girl's emotions gradually calmed down, and she said, "My name is Li Li, and I wanted to go to work in other places last month, but I was tricked into coming here. ā
Gu Qiubai sighed, looking at Li Li's yellow and thin face, it was obvious that she was tortured.
"Are there any more victims like you in this village?" Gu Qiubai asked.
Now that he saw it, Gu Qiubai naturally wouldn't sit idly by.
Not only does he have to rescue all the trafficked women, but he also has to transfer the village chief who was personally involved in the incident to the police station!
With his ability, dealing with these ordinary people is naturally a trivial matter.
"There are a lot of them, and they are all sold to the villagers here as wives." Li Li spoke, "The village chief also said that even if he called the police, he was not afraid, and the police couldn't control him." ā
"Damn, it's the other way around!"
"Let's run away, if they come back, it'll be over!" Although her emotions calmed down, Li Li still felt fear.
In the past month or so, the picture of being tortured is still vivid.
"I once saw with my own eyes that the village chief broke the leg of a foreigner, saying that he was selling it to another big city to become a beggar." Li Li then spoke.
Gu Qiubai's fists clenched instantly, this group of brutes who had lost their conscience!
He often pays attention to the news, and someone has exposed that those beggars in the city are all manipulated behind them.
These people make beggars disabled and throw them into the city to help them beg for money!
"It seems that their purpose for staying with me is not simple, and I guess they have plans to do so."
Gu Qiu's white eyes were indifferent, no wonder he was asked to register before, I am afraid it was just to confirm his identity and judge whether it was easy to start!
"Do you know what they're doing now?"
"I overheard that it seemed to be a sacrifice, and the whole village was going to participate!" Li Li became excited again, "Let's run quickly, if we don't leave, we will all be beaten to death when they finish their sacrifice!" ā
Sacrifice?
Gu Qiubai's brows furrowed, and he had even more doubts in his heart, what did this group of villagers want to do?!
"Believe me, this group of people will definitely be brought to justice, you follow me, don't run around."
Gu Qiubai was going to go out and see what this group of villagers wanted to do!
As for Li Li, now that it is freezing and snowy, even if she escapes, she will not be able to run far, and she may be frozen to death, so she can only be taken with her.
Gu Qiubai took Li Li downstairs and was about to cross the yard when the dog in the yard barked.
He didn't leave his hand at this time, and with a wave of his hand, the spiritual power came out of his body, bombarding the earth dog, and directly knocking it out.
The iron door was obviously also locked, Gu Qiubai didn't want to delay more, tiptoed to the ground, directly carried Li Li, and flew out.
A little bit of means can also make Li Li feel more at ease.
However, Gu Qiubai still subconsciously put on the hat of the down jacket and covered his face, not wanting Li Li to see it.
"I've been practicing martial arts since I was a child, and it's just a small means of flying off the wall." Gu Qiubai explained.
He looked around, and saw a bonfire lit not far away, and there were faint figures, and it seemed that the sacrifice of this group of villagers had begun.
He jumped up, his body was as light as a swallow, and he rushed towards the direction of the sacrifice with a surprised Li Li.
ā¦ā¦
Ding Chun and the fat man sneaked all the way, through several dim alleys, and after about ten minutes, they came to a huge hillside.
At the foot of the hillside, a group of villagers, men and women, hundreds of people, sat in the wind and snow, regardless of the cold ground.
In the center of the villagers, a huge bonfire is lit, and in front of the bonfire, there is a black altar several meters high!
The altar is pitch black, and a one-meter-tall statue of the god is placed on it, with a hideous face, which seems to emit a misty light against the backdrop of the bonfire.
At this time, the village chief sat cross-legged at the front of the crowd with a serious face, holding a strange handprint in his hand, the whites of his eyes turned up, and muttering to himself.
"Quick, shoot it all." Ding Chun leaned against the hillside and said in a low voice.
She was very nervous, and she felt very depressed at this time, and in the middle of the altar, she could faintly hear the crying of children.
"Don't worry, Sister Chun, everything is under control." The fat man was very single, and he made an OK gesture.
He was also very curious, what did this group of villagers want to do, and they wouldn't be engaged in any cult activities, right?
The fat man is very serious about shooting, this theme has not been broadcast before.
"Hehe, when this episode of the show comes out, it will definitely trigger another wave of ratings!" The fat man licked his tongue, "My year-end bonus is nine out of ten!" ā
The village chief made a strange gesture, holding a piece of red cloth in his hand, picked up the porcelain bowl in front of him, drank it in his mouth, and then sprayed it on top of the red cloth.
"Liuding Liujia, take the spirit of the Yuan, take the red clothes as the guide, may my collection of thoughts, and keep my ancestors forever!"
After the strange eulogy was read, the village chief's body actually emitted a red light.
He threw the red cloth in his hand, and the red cloth actually floated above the idol.
"May my thoughts last forever!" All the villagers also began to chant.
In the next moment, everyone's bodies emitted red light, and wisps of them scattered out, gathering on the body of the idol through the red cloth in mid-air!
The fat man's mouth opened directly into an O-shape, and he rubbed his eyes vigorously, convinced that he was not mistaken.
"This, I'll ......"
The fat man didn't know how to describe it, but this scene directly refreshed his three views.
He has done so many issues of "Gonzo", and he has never seen such a weird picture today!
Ding Chun saw it more directly, just when the village chief finished reciting the eulogy, she suddenly found that in mid-air, a boy in red was screaming miserably!
She covered her head, her expression was extremely painful, this kind of sound wave hurt her very much.
"Sister Chun, what's wrong with you?" The fat man was also a little panicked.
However, at this moment, the village chief turned his head stiffly, and cold words popped out of his mouth: "Who dares to peep secretly?!" ā
"Discovered?!" The fat man was stunned.
Ding Chun was very decisive, turned around directly, and said, "Run!" ā
"Sister Chun, you wait for me."
The fat man wants to cry without tears, what about protecting me?
The village chief seemed to have changed at this time, and showed a cruel smile: "Even if you enter my formation, how can you be allowed to escape?" ā
With a wave of his hand, two red lights bombarded Ding Chun and the others, directly knocking them unconscious!
