33, mountain god
The four of us walked into the village again. At the entrance of the village, two villagers carried baskets on their backs, as if they were going to the mountains to pick something. They saw us and hurried away. He didn't look at us much. There was not the slightest expression on their faces.
We went straight to the village medical clinic. The village chief is standing in the lobby of the medical center.
"You helped recover our corpses." I walked over and asked.
The village chief looked at me but didn't reply.
"I'll ask you." I shouted and grabbed the village chief by the collar.
"What do you want me to say. I don't understand what you mean by that at all. The village chief said in a numb tone with a straight face.
"Don't pretend to be confused with me. The four men we went to fetch water were drained of blood and died outside. We couldn't get out of the woods outside. When he returned, the body was gone. Don't tell me you don't know anything. Update as soon as possible" I continued to shout.
"Your people are dead. Missing. They must be the enraged mountain gods. In this mountain, you must be in awe of the mountain gods. If you speak disrespectfully, you will be punished. The village chief said calmly.
"Mountain God. What a mountain god. I asked.
"It's the patron saint of this mountain. Didn't I mention it to you? ”
"Where is the mountain god?"
"How can the dwelling place of God be known to us mortals?"
". If you talk nonsense with me again, believe it or not, I'll beat you up. I raised my fist as I scared him.
"Okay. Let's fight. Anyway, this is the medical center. I'll be able to get a cure right away. ”
My threats obviously didn't do much to the old man. And just as I was pondering what to do next. A figure rushed from behind me. Then a punch hit the village chief's nose solidly. The punch was very powerful. The punch sent the village back and thump. If I hadn't clung to his collar. It is estimated that this punch has knocked him away.
I quickly turned my head to look to the side. found that it was Chang Le who beat people just now. And this kid actually had a grinning expression on his face after the punch he just made.
The village chief's entire skeleton seemed to be scattered. He's completely on my hands. It seems that he doesn't even have the intention of raising his head again.
I quickly put him in the chair next to me. The village chief immediately piled up there like a mess of mud. His head tilted back in the chair and his eyes rolled over. Completely unconscious.
"You're too ruthless, aren't you? How do you ask if you are stunned. "I said to Chang Le.
"If he can be stunned, at least it proves that he is not a slave controlled by God. I'll update it as soon as possible. Do you think it makes sense to continue asking in the same way you just did? Chang Ledao.
"At least I know the mountain god." I said.
"Yes." Chang Le nodded and said, "Then we don't need to listen to his nonsense." Just follow the clue of the mountain god to find it. ”
"How to find it. Running all over the mountain. I asked rhetorically.
"Well...... "Chang Le took off his hat and scratched his head. It's obvious. He himself had no idea what we were going to do next.
I didn't spend it in the hall. Instead, he turned to the door of the room in the medical center and glanced inside. The village doctor is busy inside. It seems to be stopping the bleeding of the villager who was covered in blood before.
"Qiao Wei, Chang Le. Come over and ask the kid. After saying that, I pushed the door straight into the back room.
There was a very strange metal bed in it. The bed was upturned on all sides. A baffle was formed. Under the bed, in addition to the bracket, there is a tube connected to the ground. The bloodied villager lay on the metal bed. I didn't wear anything. Blood was seeping from his pores. Strangely, the village doctor did not take any measures to stop the bleeding at all.
"What are you doing......" I asked.
The village doctor looked at me unhurriedly. Then he said, "I'm treating him." Don't come and disturb me. ”
"You're calling it a healing ......," I yelled, and rushed over and kicked hard at the tube under the metal bed. The pipe clicked and I kicked it off and flew out. And with the tube flying out. Bright red blood also flew out of the tube. The upper half of the tube that was still attached to the bed was also dripping with blood.
It wasn't a hospital bed. Rather, it is a big funnel of bloodletting.
"What are you going to do. Don't get in the way of my ......"
"Get out of here." I didn't wait for the village doctor to finish speaking, and then pushed him aside. Then he reached for the bloody guy on the bed.
When my hand just touched the man's arm. He jerked his eyes open. Those eyes stood out on the blood-red face.
I was stunned for a moment. But he grabbed him by the arm and pulled him out of bed. But the man sat up and immediately broke free of my hand. Then he lay back in bed.
When I was about to drag him again, he glared at me fiercely and said, "Do you want to kill me?" Don't touch me......"
"You've killed four people. You told me not to touch you......" I glared at him as well. Then he grabbed his arm again and pulled him out of bed. The other hand pinched his waist and lifted him directly from the bed and threw him to the hard ground next to him. Smack. His blood was also splattered all over the floor.
The man didn't cry out in pain. There was no intention of attacking me. At the same time as he fell, he also sat up from the ground. Then he sat down and knelt in the direction of the door, and kept prostrating. At the same time, he also said thoughtfully: "Mountain God, please forgive." I beg your pardon. I will pay tribute. I will pay the tribute on time. Please don't condemn me. Please don't condemn ......"
"Forget it. Run. When the mountain god comes, it's too late. The village doctor sighed and walked over to me.
"What do you mean. You got the word clear. I turned around and asked the village doctor.
"The people of the village believe that there is a mountain god in this mountain. The mountain gods will protect the village from calamity. But the people of the village had to pay tribute to the mountain gods. The tribute is blood. If someone disturbs the process of paying tribute, the mountain god will be condemned. It drains all the blood from a person's body at once. Turn people into dried corpses. I think you're seeing that effect too. ”
"You're collecting the blood of the villagers for the mountain god and then going to pay tribute." I asked.
The village doctor shook his head and said, "I'm just a doctor who came to the village to see a doctor." I wish you hadn't asked anything. After eating, he hurried out of the village. But now it looks like it's too late. ”
After speaking. The village crouched down beside the metal bed. With both hands, grasp the edge of the half-section of the tube that is still connected to the ground. After moving the tube from side to side. The village pulled upwards with all its might. The pipe was easily pulled out of the ground by him.
"Look. I didn't collect anything. The village pointed to the round hole in the ground.
I crouched down and looked carefully into the hole. I reached into the hole with my hand and touched it.
There really aren't any containers down there. Only moist soil. The blood seemed to flow down the tube directly into the soil.
"What's down there?" Qiao Wei also came to me and asked.
"Nothing. Here's the dirt down there. ”
"That's the blood Tai Sui."
"I guess so." I stood up and asked the village doctor, "You had this bed when you came, didn't you?" ”
"It's a question that doesn't make much sense anymore. Go away. ”
"We want to go too. But it can't go. The road outside is not going to the end at all. Never mind. Explain this to you. Is there a spade. I said.
The village doctor stared at me in a daze. His mouth was half-open, but he couldn't say half a word.
I didn't understand what his expression meant. I didn't have to ask him to explain it to me. More and faster chapters are here. I turned around and went outside to find out if I had any tools to dig the earth. Qiao Wei, Chang Le, and Ye Chen also followed me outside the house.
I don't know when it started to get cloudy. Although it is still quite a long time before the sun sets. But the dense dark clouds made it seem as if it was getting dark outside.
"This is the mountain god who is coming to get us." Ye Chen asked nervously in the back.
"Qiao Wei. Saw something. I asked just as nervously.
Qiao Wei looked around for a while with a serious expression. Then he said, "It feels a little weird. All the bugs are gone. ”
"Everyone. Did you look at the weather forecast before you came? Chang Le patted me and Qiao Wei on the shoulders and said, "It's been storming in Yunnan recently. Look, today's rainstorm is coming here. ”
Chang Le's words had just been finished. The wind began to blow in the village. More and faster chapters are here. And the wind is coming very quickly. The trees on the surrounding hills were already shaking violently. The wires in the village on the dead trees also swayed wildly. Soon. There were also huge raindrops in the wind. It didn't take long for the ground to get completely wet.
I was going to go out in the rain and get a shovel or something. But the rain came much faster than I expected. The wind was also stronger than it had just been. I only walked around the clinic for half a circle, and I couldn't stand still. The wind was blowing and I had to hold on to the wall to keep my balance. The vision was also blurred by the wind and rain, and it was difficult to see things clearly.
I had no choice but to go back to the medical center. Everyone else came back and closed the door.
I, Qiao Wei, and Chang Le all came back empty-handed. But Ye Chen didn't know where to get a small shovel.
Back in the house, we don't have to worry about the storm outside for a while. I went straight to the back room and moved the bulky metal bed aside. The round hole in the ground was completely exposed. Then I used the small shovel that Ye Chen brought back and began to dig in the round hole.
The ground at the medical center is hard. However, the soil under the round hole can be dug up. In a few moments, I hollowed out a large part of the hole underneath. Then I, Qiao Wei and Chang Le worked together to pull the hard ground around the round hole. It was like lifting the lid and a big hole was opened in the house.
That way I can go into the pit and dig deeper.
I had enough stamina to dig in the house for hours on end. But it didn't take long for the little shovel to curl up. And no matter how much I dug up, I didn't dig anything out of the soil. The only thing that was probably there was the thick smell of blood gushing out of the pit.
I dug in the house for an hour. I dug the pit from the first half a meter to a depth of nearly a man. But there's still nothing down there. There is no blood Tai Sui. There is no mountain god. There are no ghosts or anything like that.
Then. The wind and rain outside were much quieter. Qiao Wei took a look outside, then hurriedly ran back and said, "The rain has basically stopped." The people of the village came out, as if they were gathering in the middle of the village. ”
"Let's go over and have a look." Chang Ledao.
I also don't think there's much point in digging in the house anymore. He simply threw the shovel into the pit. Then he crawled out of the pit.
By the time we went out, the rain had completely stopped. Although the sky was a little clearer, the vision was still gray. The setting sun was dyeing the sky an eerie bright red on the side of the mountain. There was also a strong smell of blood in the air.
"It's fucking weird. this place. I sighed as I followed Qiao Wei and the others towards the place where the villagers had gathered.
We were soon in the middle of the village. It turned out that a villager's house was smashed by a large tree. It is estimated that it is because of the high winds. The tree that grew in the village was uprooted. Strangely, though, the villagers didn't pay attention to the house. Instead, stand next to the house not far from the roots of the tree. And the smell of blood came from the roots of the tree.
I quickly picked up speed and ran over and separated the villagers on the periphery. When I squeezed into the middle. The cold pores of my whole body burst into a stream of cool air. There is a large tree pit in the ground. From the pit of the tree, streams of blood were gushing out. That's definitely blood. I can tell from the smell. And the villagers were crouching on the edge of the pit in a very orderly manner, drinking the blood gushing out. And everyone who drank that blood became ruddy.
Suddenly. A villager who had just drunk the blood in the pit looked up at me. Then he shouted frantically. Then everyone else turned their eyes to me. I saw something familiar in their eyes. Although it has been more than half a year. But I still remember that feeling.
That's the look in the eyes of a predator when he sees his prey. I've had that too.
We're going to be bloodsucked.
