Ye Chong walked along the creek towards the depths of the valley. I walked about five or six miles like this, and there were strange flowers and plants along the way, dangerous peaks and strange rocks, but there were people everywhere.

When he was tired of walking, he sat down on a large rock to rest. The area around the boulder is full of wild flowers, red and purple, very gorgeous, I don't know what the name is. When he saw that the peanut was lovely, he reached out and stroked it. Unexpectedly, the petals trembled slightly, turning into an extremely fine point of light and dissipating with the wind, and only eight of the original nine-petaled flowers remained.

Ye Chong was very surprised, and was about to try again, when he suddenly heard a faint voice in the dense forest behind him, and said in his heart: "Is there really someone in this dream?" The ancient trees in the forest are towering, dense and deep, and very dark. He followed the sound and walked about a hundred meters to push the branches and leaves, and vaguely felt that there was a fire flickering in front of him. Walking closer, through the pine branches, I saw a man holding a torch on the forest path in front of me, and under the torch was a dark and secluded pit, which was crowded with people, and from time to time dirt flew out, as if someone was digging a trap.

Ye Chong was amazed, he couldn't imagine that there were even bizarre stories in this dream, so he read it immediately.

I saw that the person holding the torch was a young man, about sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing a small hat and a long shirt with a collar, which seemed to be the costume of the Han Dynasty. Some of the other diggers wore square scarves and buns, and some wore drapes, but they couldn't see their faces clearly.

Ye Chong hid behind the tree, and secretly wondered in his heart: "I don't know what these people are doing in the middle of the night?"

I only heard the young man holding the torch say to the deep pit: "Fourth brother, I don't know if that big wicked man will come today?"

One of the people in the pit struggled to raise a shovel of soil and said, "Miss Luo Shi said that he would come, then he will definitely come." ”

"Luo Shi girl?" Ye Chong's heart moved: "Could it be the Han Dynasty girl described in "Mo Shang Sang"? So these people are from the Han Dynasty?"

"Did Miss Rashiki make an appointment with him?" Under the firelight, the young man's expression was solemn, as if he had a great deal of concern.

"Yes, instead of sitting still, it's better to fight to the death!" Before the words fell, a black shadow flickered on the edge of the pit, and a person jumped out naked, his body was very agile, and it was estimated that he was the so-called fourth brother.

"But if it doesn't work out, our village will be finished. The fire-raising boy said.

"Isn't that the big wicked man going to let us go?" The fourth brother turned his back to Ye Chong, seemed to raise his eyes to look at the young man, and continued to clean up the dirt on the side of the road.

The young man sighed and said, "I only hope that Miss Luofu's plan will succeed, and there will be no place for the wicked to die." ”

"Hmph! Either he dies or I die today!" The fourth brother thrust the shovel into the road, then turned around and walked towards Ye.

Ye Chong was startled and quickly hid in the bushes behind the tree.

There was another person in the pit: "I really don't understand, why does this great wicked man kill people indiscriminately? We little people have no grievances with him in the past, no enmity in recent days, we are honest, we do our duty, where did we offend him? Even if we offend him, children are always innocent, right? Why does he have to kill them all and leave no chickens and dogs?"

"Maybe he's not a human at all!" At this time, the fourth brother had already walked up to Ye Chong, only a few meters away, only to hear him vaguely I don't know what he had gotten, and then walked back, followed by a muffled bang, as if he had thrown something into the pit.

Ye Chong brushed aside the branches and leaves of the bushes, only to see the fourth brother clapping his hands, and said to the deep pit: "It's almost, you guys have laid out the spikes, so that this big wicked man can also taste the taste of being slaughtered by others today." ”

The young man said, "Fourth brother, can't we talk to that big villain?" Let's talk about it, what did we do wrong, wouldn't it be better to apologize for what should be apologized and apologize for what should be apologized?"

The fourth brother raised his head, looked at the young man quietly for a while, and said, "Little Liuzi, set up the trap in a while, and you will take the men, women, and children of the whole village to run as far as you can, and never come back." ”

"No, Fourth Brother, I'm going to deal with that wicked man with you!" the young man said stubbornly.

The fourth brother walked over, pressed the young man's shoulders with both hands, looked at him and said, "Little Liuzi, you have to protect the safe evacuation of all the men, women and children in our village, this is more important than killing that big villain, do you understand?"

"But......" the young man refused.

"Don't...... Look, it looks like Miss Rashiki is here. The fourth brother suddenly rejoiced.

Ye Chong followed his gaze and looked into the forest on the left, only to see a group of people walking by in the dark. The first person was a young woman with a stiff bow and a short knife hanging from her waist, dressed in a corset brocade robe, which set off her exquisitely and heroically. The people in the back were either carrying bows and arrows, or holding long knives, and they were all some sturdy young men in their twenties.

The young man greeted him, shook the woman's hand and said, "Sister Luo, why did you come?"

"Why? I just didn't see it for a while, and I missed my sister. The woman smiled slightly, walked up to the fourth brother and said, "Fourth brother, how are you preparing?"

At this time, several people in the trap had already jumped up and were laying the mulch, and a stone was placed next to it as a marker so as not to hurt their own people.

The fourth brother lightly stepped on the covered soil and said with a smile: "Miss Luoshi, everything is almost ready." ”

"Is the Heavenly Tribulation Array also arranged?"

"Everything is laid out according to your command. Now everything is ready, only the east wind is owed. ”

Luo Fu nodded, turned to look at the crowd behind him, and said: "Brothers, that great villain is fierce and brutal, murderous, no matter whether he succeeds or fails today, I am afraid that there are only a few people who can survive." If you still have anything to worry about, it's too late to regret it now. ”

The group of people looked at each other, suddenly stood tall and said in unison: "Let's swear to live and die with Miss Luoshi!"

Luo Fu nodded, beckoned to a little boy in the crowd and said, "Xiaojie, come here, come to my sister." ”

The little boy was about eleven or twelve years old, and seemed to have just died of his family, dressed in white, dressed in linen and filial piety, walked up to Luo Fu, and said, "Hello sister." ”

Luo Fu leaned down, stroked the child's face and said, "Xiaojie, are you afraid?"

The child said, "Don't be afraid, this wicked man killed my father and mother, and I want to avenge them!"

Luo Shi looked at him in a daze for a while, and said, "Okay, you will hide behind that tree for a while." As he spoke, he pointed to a large camphor tree on the right side of the road, and continued: "When the great wicked man comes, you will run back along this road and lead him into a trap, okay?"

"Well, that's for the best. The kid nodded.

Luo Shi stood up with the child in his right hand, took a deep breath and said, "The archer obeys the order!"

"No!" came out of the crowd a dozen young men, wearing bows and arrows, standing in a row.

"Twelve of you, lying in ambush on the cedars on both sides, listen to my commands, and when you see the great devil fall into a trap, you will shoot ten thousand arrows. ”

"Yes!"

"Obey orders!" The crowd left two more bearded men.

Luo Shi passed down the orders in turn, who issued spears, who cut ropes, who released smoke, who cut off the back road, everything was arranged in an orderly manner.

After the group of villagers took their places according to the order, Luo Fu let out a long sigh, walked to the bushes where Ye Chong was hiding and knelt down, folded his hands, and chanted words in his mouth, as if praying for the protection of the gods. Under the mottled moon shadow, but seeing his beautiful eyebrows frowning slightly, Chu Chu was pitiful, he should be innocent and innocent, but he was very worried.

She prayed and looked in Ye Chong's direction in a daze.

Ye Chong's heart was pounding when he saw it.

After a while, Rashiki switched to the side of the bushes and continued to kneel and pray.

Ye Chong turned his head to look, but the bushes were luxuriant and the surrounding area was overgrown with weeds, but he couldn't see it. He was in a hurry, suddenly felt a cold in his throat, a short knife against his throat, and at the same time, a soft and delicate palm clasped the back of his neck, and whispered: "Who are you?"
