Volume 1 Into the Immortal Gate Chapter 2 Massacre
The crescent moon is like a fine needle, emitting a faint clear light, and countless stars around it are dotted on the black cloth-like sky, and the stars are hazy.
The trees want to be quiet, the autumn wind does not stop, and the maple leaves fly wildly.
At the edge of the maple tree, the crack on the pale green simple prohibition has turned into a large hole that is chosen to be eaten, and the smell of blood permeates it.
Through the moonlight and starlight, I could faintly see that on the ground below the big hole, there were several corpses of fierce beasts, lying on both sides of the big hole, motionless, already dead, and blood gurgling out.
Among them was a large snake with a thin adult neck, most of its scales and armor were charred black, as if it had been burned by fire; White smoke rose from the bodies of the two blue wolves, and their heads were burned to the ground.
The rest of the dead beasts looked similar to this.
"Whew......".
Outside the simple prohibition, there were several beast roars, and more than ten fierce beast figures wandered nearby, not daring to drill through the big hole again, but they didn't want to leave.
After the small half-pillar of incense, in a majestic tiger roar, an ape scratching his ears and cheeks slowly approached the big hole with some reluctance, and carefully poked out his right foot and slowly stepped into the big hole.
At the sound of "Zila", a small green flame jumped at the edge of the hole, and the ape let out a "squeak" and was about to retract its right foot.
An unknown huge force suddenly pushed the ape, and the ape staggered, and involuntarily flew through the big hole and came to the maple forest.
Although the ape suffered some flesh pain, he did not worry about his life.
"Squeak...... Creak....... ”
The ape thumped his chest vigorously, and screamed excitedly at the faintly fierce beast outside the big hole, as if showing off and summoning.
The fierce beasts outside the big hole seemed to be frightened by the fierce beasts that died tragically on the ground, and they only roared a few symbolically, but they did not dare to step over the big hole.
Then, a moment later, the majestic roar of the tiger sounded again.
As soon as the tiger roared, a tall blue wolf hesitated to burrow into the big hole again.
This time, the small green flames around the big hole only flickered a few times before extinguishing, and the blue wolf stepped into the maple forest safely.
As soon as the blue wolf passed through the big hole, it let out a long howl sound, only to shake the nearby maple leaves.
Seeing this, the fierce beasts outside the simple prohibition no longer had any fear, and they drilled into the big hole one after another......
Giant snakes, black apes, blue wolves, leopards...... More than ten fierce beasts that exuded a tragic and bloody aura appeared in the maple forest in the moonlight and starlight, some of them had red eyes, some had green eyes, and some had yellow flashes in their eyes...... These fierce beasts all looked at the nearest Zhao Jiatun, and a bloodthirsty expression appeared on their hideous faces.
Suddenly, the bodies of these fierce beasts trembled, and they bowed their heads slightly to the fierce beasts that had finally entered the maple forest through the big hole, indicating their submission.
It's a huge, colorful tiger!
Zhao Gui was exhausted and lay on the earthen kang, his eyes looked at the roof wrapped in yellow mud and straw, and sighed softly, and the picture of his father leaving three years ago appeared in front of his eyes.
At that time, Zhao Gui's sister had just been born, and her mother was extremely weak, so it stands to reason that her father should not travel far. But under the compulsion of the town's officials, how did the father have a choice? Under the watchful eye of the officials, they can only leave this poor home and go to the distant place where they do not know the future.
As for where did my father go? What are you going to do? Don't say that Zhao Gui is a big man in Zhaojiatun and even Maple Town, and he doesn't know at all.
In fact, all the men in Maple Leaf Town have to leave their hometown and go to a distant place after they have to give birth to two children.
This cruel system is said to have lasted for a hundred years, and anyone who violates it will be killed on the spot, without tolerance or mercy.
Zhao Gui still vividly remembers three years ago, when his father turned to leave, the painful and distorted face, the eyes full of reluctance, the trembling lips, the sudden stiff back, and the suppressed low sobs of his mother......
Three years have passed, and Zhao Gui has changed from a boy to a "man" who is almost the pillar of the family, barely supporting the family, and he is exhausted.
If it weren't for the fact that after eating, his head suddenly became a little dizzy and his legs were a little weak, Zhao Gui at this time would still have to do those farm jobs that seemed to never be finished under the dim oil lamp until late at night.
"It should be a little cold, sleep well, and think that tomorrow will be back to the same as before", Zhao Gui retracted his flying thoughts, shook his dizzy head with difficulty, thinking so in his heart, and gradually felt that his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier.
"Brother, brother, are you asleep? Lele couldn't sleep......", in a daze, Zhao Gui seemed to hear his sister's delicate voice.
But this crisp girl's voice seemed to sound from a very far away, very ethereal, making him feel unreal, although it made Zhao Gui's heart gentle, but it added a bit of hypnotic effect......
Zhao Gui who fell asleep, at the center of one of his feet, a drop of transparent liquid quietly appeared for no reason, floating silently, teleporting across a distance of several feet, and after hovering very close to Zhao Gui, a strange twist, a seven-colored glow shot out from this drop of liquid, gradually enveloping Zhao Gui.
With the touch of the glow, the white bones in Zhao Gui's body, the blood vessels flowing with blood, and the wriggling internal organs are all exquisite, and the picture is strange and terrifying.
As Zhao Gui was completely enveloped by the seven-colored glow, although the boy was lying on the earthen kang, he seemed to be in the boundless void, the surrounding time was still, the space was frozen, and everything disappeared, only the glow and the boy were eternal......
After a few breaths, the glow returned to the drop, and all visions vanished.
The transparent liquid trembled slightly, and finally drilled into Zhao Gui's eyebrows.
On the surface of Zhao Gui's body, a layer of light and thin seven-colored xia clothes appeared, although there was no weight at all visually, it gave people an incomparably heavy feeling.
All this happened only for more than ten breaths, and the women and girls outside did not find anything abnormal.
As for Zhao Gui, he seemed to be unconscious, and he didn't have the slightest sense of this change.
The moon lacks stars, but it can't bring light to Zhaojiatun, only the autumn wind gusts, and it is cold.
In a farmhouse closest to the maple forest, several black shadows suddenly broke in, the dusk butter lamp went out, and several screams came out, breaking the silence of the night, accompanied by the smell of blood wafting out, and the "crunching" sound of wild beasts gnawing on bones.
A moment later, there were several screams in the house closest to the farmer's house.
There was an adult woman who escaped from her home by luck, her clothes were bloody, her face was full of horror, and her mouth let out a crazy scream.
In just an instant, a wolf claw slapped lightly at the back of the head, and the screams stopped abruptly, and the brains flew and blood surged!
Under the starlight, several mutilated corpses were laid on the ground, blood and water like streams, and the smell was fishy.
A huge tiger claw stepped on the girl's half-left head, and with a "flutter" sound, the head burst.
Finally, someone noticed that a murderous thing was attacking the village, and although he was frightened, he still shouted loudly, but before he could shout for too long, he was bitten off by a tiger.
The sleepy villagers were finally awakened by the shouting and screaming, and began to wake up their families and neighbors to ward off the fierce beasts.
For a time, this small village, which had almost no adult men, suddenly became chaotic, and there were bold women, holding shovels and hoes in their hands, summoning up their courage and rushing towards more than a dozen fierce beasts, and there were also timid people who began to protect the young and the old, and ran for their lives......
Zhao Gui's house, the woman picked up the girl with one hand and hurriedly ran towards Zhao Gui's sleeping room, but the strange thing was that although she could open the door, she couldn't get close to Zhao Gui half a step.
The woman was in a hurry, and cried out with her hands and feet...... But Zhao Gui seemed to be dead and did not react.
The noisy and screaming outside became clearer and clearer, and even the roar of tigers and wolves could be heard, and a bloody smell with a foul smell was getting closer and closer.
The woman looked at the girl, who was still a little confused, and stamped her feet vigorously, and at the same time with tears streaming down her eyes, she gritted her teeth and ran outside.
"Mother, mother, mother, Lele wants brother, Lele wants brother......", the girl's immature voice sounded.
The woman, however, turned around and took a wooden fork, and fled away from the noisy and chaotic villagers.
Only the teenager who was in a state of coma was left.
