"Sister Qi has a lot of confidence in you, but she can't be sure if you can successfully complete this operation. So for several days, the brothers of Fa Qiu Men have been lurking in various key roads in and out of this place, in case you encounter any danger. ”

According to her, they were on the lookout to ensure my safety, but I didn't follow the route they had envisioned, so I would have been one step late. The main reason for this is because I found it according to the marks left by Xu Qian, and I took a lot of unjust roads.

After searching according to Xu Qian's guidance, Cheng Yiyun found the location of this place, and when she continued to search along the way, she found this village, and met the lama dozens of miles away from here.

"Just last night, I led seven brothers into a strange forest, only to find another team not far away to respond to the bodies of our brothers, all dead and mutilated."

"So that's going to happen?" I'm a little worried.

"At that time, I only heard a strange roar in the forest, and the trees shook, and before I could prepare for defense, a group of terrible mountain roars suddenly appeared, they were tall and fierce, and they moved quickly."

In this way, the people led by Cheng Yiyun met with those cannibalistic mountain screams.

"Lin Kun, it's really terrifying, I haven't encountered such a situation yet, my people are all dead, and only I am left to escape." Cheng Yiyun still has palpitations in retrospect.

"You're the only one?" I asked. "Blood stains on your legs......"

Her eyes moistened, and she said, "The blood of the brothers stained the woods red...... Without their cover, I wouldn't have been able to run away. ”

Cheng Yiyun began to sob.

"Don't you all have guns?"

"It doesn't work! There were too many of those monsters, and besides, the guns couldn't withstand their swift attacks. ”

"It's strange, I didn't encounter any monsters along the way." I wondered.

"Maybe it's because you're alone, and we're a team, and you walk very little, and if there are a lot of people, it's easy for them to catch the breath, so when I ran away alone, I avoided those mountain roars."

"Well, thankfully you're okay." I put my arms around Cheng Yiyun and buried her in my chest.

"By the way, when you came to this village, the villagers didn't attack you?"

Cheng Yiyun shook her head, "I'm not as reckless as you, this place is very weird, I didn't startle the snakes, I observed them secretly for a few days, and found that they were very unfriendly, and the whole village was Shinto." ”

The sky was already bright, the morning glow in the eastern sky was blood-red, and a few thick gray clouds slowly spread out on the top of the mountains, and the eastern sky was gray and red, like a blood-soaked shroud.

The village is unusually quiet.

I got up in the morning and went to find my way out. I walked around the village, looked around, and before my identity was revealed, I hurriedly got two horses, and some dry food and money.

Suddenly, a foul smell of rotten pus and rancid flesh came from the West Village.

"What a smell, so stinky!" I walked over and looked, so disgusted that I almost vomited last year's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

I saw that there was a vacant lot at the head of the West Village, and iron cables were erected between more than a dozen locust trees, on which were seven or eight shaved pigs hanging upside down, and a large bucket was placed correspondingly under each one. It's like a corpse field, with corpses hanging upside down and grinding oil under the scorching sun, reminiscent of Mussolini's violent corpse in Piazza Milan.

Drop by drop, the corpse oil fell into the bucket below, thick and yellow, condensed into a paste.

"Corpse oil?" I was terrified, "What are these villagers doing with this disgusting thing?" ”

"Is there any religious ritual again?" I walked along.

At noon, the villagers went to the mountains in droves carrying sacks and shouting donkey carts. I followed halfway through, "They're bartering?" This shows that the people of the Yi horse gang are coming. So I got excited, and as long as I found a way out, I could get out.

At this time, the old witch walked towards me with a limp step by step, leaning on crutches, "Holy envoy, I don't know the will of the living Buddha......

I didn't look back, and said, "Why don't you report to me and make a claim, look at the good things you have done!" How do I pronounce this decree? ”

"This ......," the old lady was speechless for a moment, "and the old slave was waiting for the holy envoy at the lama temple." ”

"Get out!" I walked all the way back to the small courtyard, pushed open the door, and saw Zhuoma and Cheng Yiyun chatting.

"Dolma?"

"Brother, I'm bringing you lunch!"

"Thank you, Dolma."

"Big brother...... This is the last time I'll bring you food. Dolma lowered her head, tears in her melancholy eyes.

"What's wrong? Isn't it your parents......"

"It's not. My mother died when I was a child, and my father went into the mountains last year to cut firewood and was eaten by mountain monkeys. ”

"How so?" I felt very uncomfortable, "I'm sorry Dolma. Thanks to you these days, when my brother leaves here, he will definitely come back to see you. ”

Dolma shook her head, "No need. ”

"What's wrong?" I noticed Dolma's abnormality.

"Brother, I'll go back." Dolma said with a crying voice.

"Dolma, brother will send you home."

"No!" Dolma turned and ran, and as soon as she got out of the hospital, she suddenly stopped, turned her head and looked at me sadly, as if she had something to say, but she wanted to stop talking.

I felt bad, and rushed out of the door to catch up with Dolma, took her hand, and asked, "Dolma, is someone trying to bully you?" Don't be afraid, there is a brother here. ”

"Brother...... Tomorrow I will marry my father-in-law. ”

"They married you to an old man?"

"I heard the words of the village chief last night, saying that the third year has arrived, and it is time to pay tribute to the Yin father-in-law......"

"Memorial? That Yin Gonggong is dead? I was shocked.

"Every three years in our village, we have to marry a girl to my father-in-law, but the village will keep the girl a secret until the night before the wedding, she will not know. Dad once said that he was afraid that the girl would hang herself...... No one wants to marry Yin Gonggong. ”

"Don't be afraid, don't go home today, stay here, I'll see who dares to break in!"

"Brother...... It's useless, my sister is still in their hands, and if I don't go, they will marry my sister to my father-in-law. ”

"It's a yin marriage again!" I couldn't believe my ears, "Why are the people of this place so keen on marriage and what good is it for them?!" ”

While I was angry, I comforted Dolma and said, "Dolma, listen to my brother, don't go back, I will find a way to save your sister." ”

"But ......," Dolma was anxious.

"That's it!" I took Dolma's hand and took her back to the wooden house, "Yiyun, you take care of Dolma, those villagers seem to have gone out to barter today, I want to find out their way out of the village." ”

"Brother, my father said that there is no way out of the village at all."

"Zhuoma, there must be a way out of the village!" I smiled, "Don't worry, I have my own way, when I find the Yi horse gang and get two horses, we can get out of here." ”

……

With a look of anger on my face, I went straight into the hunchback's house and shouted, "Go and call that banbo!" ”

The hunchbacked old man and the black-faced village woman were startled, and when they saw that I was angry, they had no choice but to give in and say, "Obey." ”

When the old witch arrived, I pointed at her and scolded, "You have such a big list, why do you want to marry again?" Why don't you report to me, do you still have me in your eyes? It's simply intolerable. ”

"The Holy Messenger calms his wrath. The holy envoy didn't know that the Yin Gonggong had become an earth immortal, and the village had to marry a virgin every three years to worship, otherwise the earth immortal would be angry, and the village would be destroyed. ”

"Nonsense!"

"Holy envoy, you haven't been following the lama for so long, you don't know it, do you?" The old witch squinted at me.

"Bastard! How dare you question me! You still don't know what the power of the envoy is? "I punched the earthen wall through.

"The Holy Envoy appeases his wrath!" The old witch hurriedly knelt down.

At that moment, there was a commotion outside.

"Come on, it's not good! The little girl jumped into the river!! ”

"Someone!!"

The camp was bombed outside the village.

After a while, several men carried a female corpse into the room, "Ban Bo, the village chief, Zhuoma's sister Xiaoya jumped into the river last night when she heard that she was going to marry her and her sister together......"

Originally. This group of hateful villagers is not the only one to marry Dolma, even her sister is also married to Yin, which is simply unreasonable. Is he so enthusiastic about this thing, does he regard this matter as a career?

The hunchbacked old man inhaled the dry smoke and said, "Alas...... The fifteen-year-old girl is gone? It's a pity, hehe. ”

The female corpse looked to be fourteen or fifteen years old, drenched, with messy hair and a pale face, swollen eyeballs bulging out of the eyelids, and a waterlogged abdomen.

"Huh? What about Dolma? The hunchbacked old man asked.

"I don't know, I didn't see anyone at noon."

"Find it!"

"You dare!" I lifted the old man up and shouted, "If you dare to touch Zhuoma, I will destroy your village!" ”

"The Holy Envoy is angry!" The old witch hugged my legs, "If you don't marry, if you don't marry, you ......"

I put down the old man and asked, "What about the Yi horse gang?" ”

Everyone looked at each other and said in surprise: "Holy envoy, the Yi horse gang has not come back since the year before, don't you know?" ”

"And where are you bartering?"

"Dapeng Golden Wing Mountain Saint King Grotto, don't you know?"

"Dapeng Golden Wing Mountain Sacred King Cave?" I secretly remembered the name in my heart, "I was going back to rest, and you can't step into the courtyard, you know?" ”

"Yes......"

It was nearly dusk, and it was dark early in the mountains.

At the head of the East Village, hundreds of villagers returned with a full load, and the sacks that had been flattened when they left the village were now full, and the measles face was lame and dragged a long sack with difficulty, giggling from time to time.

I looked in the direction of Dongshan, the mountains are steep, "Could it be that there is a county seat or a small town in the east?" ”

The lame face of the measles dragged the sack into his yard, and the thief looked left and right, and when he saw that no one was following, he closed the wooden door. I wondered, "What the hell are these people doing?" When they left the village, the sacks were empty, so what did they use to barter with others? They didn't take anything with them at all, and now they're all fully loaded. ”

"There is only one possibility, they have done the business of robbing the house!" I went around the back wall of the lame house and climbed in.

There is a wooden house in the courtyard, an old-fashioned courtyard with paper-paste wooden windows. The lame leg had been dragged into the room with a sack and the door closed.

I leaned into the back of the house and listened through the window.
