19. Bloody mountain village

My first instinct was not to raise my hand, but to move the flashlight to the man's face, and I didn't think to shake his eyes, just to see who he was.

At the same time that the light of the flashlight hit the man's face, the other party also turned his head to the side to avoid the light of the flashlight, and at the same time, the shotgun in his hand also sounded!

I closed my eyes the moment the gun rang out, but immediately my eyes opened again.

The bullet didn't hit me, but the ceiling began to drop dirt after the gunshot. Only then did I realize that a hand reached out from under the armpit of the man who shot the gun to the front and held up the muzzle of the gun!

Immediately after that, the arm Xiangshang raised the arm of the man who shot him, and the hand that held the muzzle of the gun before also quickly moved to the mouth of the man who shot him, and tilted his head back while covering the mouth of the man who shot him. While exposing the neck of the man who shot him, a dagger from the other side was also placed in front of the neck of the man who shot him.

The face of the man who shot was mostly blocked by that hand, but the gauze on his forehead already indicated his identity - it was the broken head man who was still talking and laughing with us at the dinner table before! His eyes were fixed on me, and he aimed the muzzle of his shotgun at me again!

I was about to dodge the muzzle, but the dagger in front of the broken man's neck moved sideways before me!

The broken man's neck was cut through a deep opening, and blood spurted out like a waterfall. The man's eyes widened to the limit, he threw the gun to the ground, and put his two hands on his neck as if to cover the wound, but these actions no longer made any sense!

After a brief struggle of five or six seconds, the man's arms finally hung to his sides, and the man behind him withdrew his hands as well. As the Broken Head Man fell to the ground like a mess of mud, a familiar black hood dodged into the room and leaned over to pick up the shotgun on the ground.

"Didn't I tell you not to come?! Can't understand people? Zhang Yuchi glared at his wolf-like eyes and whispered at me.

I was completely stunned and didn't know how to deal with Zhang Yuchi. I should have thanked him, but just now, right in front of my eyes, he did not hesitate to kill a man, and without the slightest expression on his face, as if he had become accustomed to murder!

Zhang Yuchi told me that I may not be able to accept some of his methods, but now I see that what he said is indeed right.

I couldn't answer any questions, and Zhang Yuchi didn't say anything else to me. He went straight to Zhang Yupeng's side and then glanced at Sun Haijiao, who was shot, "Go to the house first and take out his bullets, and then I'll take you to a safe place." ”

"Hmm." Zhang Yupeng nodded in response, and then the two of them entered the big house together.

I was stunned for a few more moments before I was finally able to move. Instead of going to the back room, I dragged in the dead man at the door, and then closed the broken door again. By the time I went back to the back room, the bullet on Sun Haijiao's shoulder had already been removed, and Zhang Yupeng was bandaging Sun Haijiao's wound with a strip of cloth.

Zhang Yuchi nodded to me after seeing me coming: "The fat man is lucky, but he bleed a little more, and he shouldn't be able to die." Also, I was a little rushed to speak just now, I'm sorry. ”

I also hurriedly waved my hand and said, "What's the excuse, I should thank you for saving my life." ”

We didn't say anything more. After Zhang Yupeng bandaged Sun Haijiao's wounds, he directly carried Sun Haijiao on his back, and then nodded at Zhang Yuchi to signal departure.

Instead of going out through the main entrance, Zhang Yuchi jumped through the back window into a vegetable garden, and then led us around the corner in the shadows of the houses, all the while avoiding the villagers who roamed the village in groups of three or five as if they were hunting us.

Ten minutes later, we arrived at the end of the village at the entrance to the mountain pass, which was guarded by two men with shotguns.

Zhang Yupeng put Sun Haijiao down and asked me to hold him, and then the two brothers went around in a big circle left and right and touched the two men guarding the mountain pass. The first to strike was Zhang Yuchi, who slashed the neck of one of the shotgun men as if he had suddenly come out of the shadows.

In addition, before the shotgun man could shoot Zhang Yuchi, he was grabbed by Zhang Yupeng, who came up from behind, and broke his neck.

Seeing this scene, I also understood what Zhang Yupeng meant by "killing" before.

We didn't meet any more villagers after leaving the village and into the mountains, and after a few more minutes of walking on the mountain trail we came to the entrance to an old mine. The entrance was supposed to have been sealed with wooden slats, but now the boards are all broken, only the edges are still broken, and a sign with "No Entry" written in red paint is still thrown on the floor.

Zhang Yuchi said "come in with me", and then took the lead into the mine.

I followed up and turned on the flashlight.

This was the first time I had ever been in a mine, and the conditions inside were not what I had imagined. In my imagination, the caves are similar to natural caves, but the walls of this cave are all supported by wood, and the whole passage is square, and there are some metal supports on the four legs.

We walked about 30 meters along the passage and came to a cave with four branches. A campfire was lit in the center of the cavern. Zhang Yuchi motioned for us to sit down here and rest, and then he also sat on the ground and took off the small backpack behind him, took out the kettle from it and handed it to me, and at the same time gave me a pill for Sun Fatzi to eat.

Sun Haijiao looked to be weakened to the limit, and after reluctantly taking the pill and drinking a saliva, his face gradually softened, and it seemed that there would indeed be no danger. I finally let out a long breath as well.

After taking a few deep breaths in a row to calm my emotions down, I looked at Zhang Yuchi and said, "What the hell is going on?" People in this cave village dare not enter? ”

Zhang Yuchi nodded and said: "This is the source of the blood curse in the village, these villagers are all imprisoned in this place by this blood curse, this is their hunting ground!" You should be able to see what they're up to. ”

"They're going to kill us?" I said.

"Hmm." Zhang Yuchi nodded, "Killing is only the first step, the second step is eating." We are the prey of the villagers, and whoever catches us will have our meat to himself. ”

"Eat...... Cannibalism? "I was shocked, and at the same time I thought of Qian Fushun and Hao Shiming.

"Yes, eating human flesh. For the people of their village, human flesh is the antidote, either eat people or die themselves, and there is no way to lift this blood curse. He'll explain to you the specifics, I'm going out to do what I haven't finished yet. After speaking, Zhang Yuchi pointed behind me.

I hurriedly turned around and found a thin old man with no arms coming out of the fork in the depths of the mine.
