Chapter 287: Xiaozhai "City God"

The old lady's words were already obvious, she was really helping me, and she was trying to reveal some confidence in me. No wonder the two Qing Dynasty-looking people I met before drove so far to this village, they were all to participate in this sacrifice. Because, someone offended the city god, so the city god wanted to sacrifice those people.

The people who entered this place during this time were not Shen Yue and them, it must be my father and second grandfather, it seems that if I want to save them, I will really go to meet the so-called City God.

Thinking of this, I sped up, wearing a mask, and blended in with the crowd.

All the people I saw were wearing masks, all of them had hideous faces, and it seemed that the so-called "sacrifice of the old lady" was a very grand ceremony, although I couldn't see the faces, but I could feel that these people in the masks were all very excited.

Half an hour later, the ritual takes place, but by this time, the entire eastern square is already lit up, and the sky is red.

There are many sacred trees around the sacrificial grounds, which are painted in brilliant colors in the north, and the sacred trees are carved with various masks, as if there are many heads hanging on them, which looks very strange. In the center of the entire sacrificial square, there is a large bonfire, and people wearing masks are around the bonfire, jumping around one by one, looking no different from the dancing gods.

I saw that there were a lot of masked people around me joining in, so I followed and quietly blended in.

All the masked men were jumping and jumping around the huge campfire, and I followed along to observe the situation around me.

Next to this sacrificial place, there is a two-story wooden building, which is almost the largest building in the entire village, and I think in my heart it can't be the City God's Mansion, right?

I walked out of the whole rope jumping team wearing a mask and quietly walked towards that side, but before I could get closer, I was stopped by several people in the mask who looked like leopards with their heads and eyes. I didn't understand what they were talking about, so I quickly waved my hand and left.

Fortunately, it did not arouse their suspicions.

I don't know where those who were used for the sacrifice were held, and I'm afraid I can only save people until the ritual of the sacrifice begins.

After that, we had to wait, and when the sacrifice ceremony began, all the people in the masks formed a long queue in the entire sacrificial square.

Then the sacrificers were carried out, and their faces were all covered with masks, but it could be seen that there were three of them, two of whom were women.

I recognized it almost immediately, one was Shen Yue, and the other two women must be Sister Zhang and the little goblin.

It seems that the guess is not wrong, and sure enough, they fell into the hands of the city god. However, is it not necessary to live in a dilapidated wooden building and sacrifice living people, how can this really be the city god?

However, this is not the point, the point is that I have already found Shen Yue and them, but I didn't expect that following that even the masked man here would really have results.

It's just that the three of them were tightly tied to a sacred tree, and after being carried out, there were two tall wooden shelves near the bonfire, and the sacred wood was placed on the high wooden shelf.

Now everyone's masked people are staring, and I have no way to do it, so I can only wait for the opportunity. However, Shen Yue, Sister Zhang, and the little goblin were tied to the divine tree and there was no movement at all, and I was a little worried about their situation.

I didn't speak the language, and I couldn't communicate with the other masked people, and I couldn't get anything from them. What the hell happened, and why were Shen Yue and the others tied up here?

Just as I was thinking about it, I was bumped into it. It was a masked man, but his back looked familiar.

I immediately recognized it as Ah Kun.

I didn't expect Ah Kun to come to this village, which is definitely a surprise for me, at least I can have one more helper, so that I don't have to face such a terrible situation alone.

Ah Kun bumped into me, and he immediately walked forward, his steps very fast. I can understand what he means, it's not convenient to talk here.

I immediately followed, Ah Kun didn't stop until he walked behind a big tree in front of him, wearing a mask, he looked around, and then he said to me: "Xiao Fan, don't act rashly now, you should have heard about that City God, right?" ”

I nodded and asked, "That's right, Shen Yue and the others fell into the hands of the City God, there are so many people here, it is indeed not so simple to save them." However, they have all been placed on the altar, and when the city god comes out and burns them with a fire, it will be really useless! ”

"People must be saved, but the City God is not easy to deal with!" Akun said.

"What the hell is that Chenghuang Ye, why do I feel so evil? If it was really Lord Chenghuang, would he stay in such a small village? I asked, thinking it was very strange.

"That's definitely not the City God, in fact, it's not that the City God himself is very powerful, the key is that the people in this village listen to him. He should be a priest-like being, claiming to be the Lord of the City God, and those who wear the mask are under his control and worship him very much. Either of you and I have enough power to deal with him, but we can't deal with all the masked people! Ah Kun and I analyzed.

In this way, Ah Kun has already done some research, and he may have arrived at this village before me, which is indeed a difficult matter.

But even so, Shen Yue and the others still need to be saved, and they can't watch the "City God" really use them to do some "sacrifice".

"Is there anything you can do?" I asked.

"Since we can't deal with these masked people, let's go and meet the City God for a while, when the time comes, with the City God in our hands, saving people will not be a problem, and maybe there will be an accident!" Ah Kun looked at me and said, especially the last sentence sounding profound.

"What do you mean by surprise?" I asked.

"I'll know then, and I'm not sure now. I've already stepped on a good footing, and the city god will come from the east later, and we'll rob him halfway!" Ah Kun said.

I nodded, but I was a little puzzled, so I asked, "Doesn't Lord Chenghuang live in the wooden building opposite, why did he come from the east?" ”

"No, there is still a stockade in the east, and this city god came from there. He does not belong to this existence, but the scope of his jurisdiction also includes this village, and this sacrificial activity was chosen here because the villagers here caught a few outsiders, and the villagers invited the Chenghuang Lord to take credit, and the Chenghuang Ye personally came to preside over this sacrificial ceremony! "Ah Kun knows very well, so that the problem can be easily solved, I want to see who the so-called City God is.

Then, I followed Ah Kun in that direction, I glanced back at Shen Yue and them, and asked in a low voice, "Are they okay?" ”

Ah Kun didn't look back, he said to me as he walked: "It's okay, Lord Chenghuang hasn't gone over yet, and the masked man will definitely not do it!" ”

Ah Kun and I walked towards the east, and after a few minutes, we heard the sound of gongs and drums beating not far away.

Ah Kun gestured at me, and the two of us quickly found a place to hide. Waiting for the sound of gongs and drums getting closer and closer, I saw a group of people wearing Nu masks dancing Nu dance, the masks on their faces were different, they were all the kind of narrow faces, small eyes, and they looked very bewitching.

Behind this group of masked people is a black sedan chair, and the person carrying the sedan chair is in the clouds, not to mention how weird.

As I got closer, I began to feel the temperature around me plummet, a cold breath around my neck, and goosebumps on my back.

As the palanquin approached, Akin beckoned to me, and the two of us rushed out at the same time. The dancing people all stopped, and they all stared at me and Akun.

Without saying a word, the two of us rushed towards the black sedan chair.

Those dancers rushed over, but they were no match for me and Ah Kun at all, and a few of them flew out after dividing five by two.

When I rushed towards the black sedan chair, a thin hand slowly stretched out from the black sedan chair, and the sedan curtain was slowly lifted.
