Chapter 407: The Vanishing Sun
"This is our own rice wine brewed in Sanssouci Village, it's no worse than the Moutai Wuliangye outside yours, how many people can try it?"
I couldn't help it, so I could only pick up the wine glass and drink it all.
"Good wine!"
I praised loudly, and at the same time, the true qi in my body was running, and through the other hand that was placed under the table, the alcohol was quickly expelled.
The method of refining qi taught by Master Hu can not only condense the true qi in the body, but also discharge harmful substances from the body through the eight veins of the Qi Sutra, so this trick of the village chief did not stump me.
As for Lonnie and Bai Ze, as well as Jing Jing, the three of them naturally have their own techniques to expel alcohol, and I am not worried.
After glass of wine, a few of us did not change our faces, we still talked and laughed, and a surprised expression appeared on the village chief's face.
Looking up at the sun above his head, a look of anxiety suddenly appeared on the village chief's face.
"That's all for today's banquet, let's meet again tomorrow."
As he spoke, the village chief hurriedly stood up and beckoned everyone to start cleaning up the banquet.
The village chief's actions were so strange that I couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.
He was still in a posture of not giving up until he poured a few of us down, but now he was suddenly in such a hurry to end the banquet, as if some danger was coming, and it had to make people suspicious.
"Uncle Sun, can you have another drink with me, why are you in a hurry?"
I pretended to be drunk and grabbed the village chief's arm.
"You and I hit it off at first sight, how about we not get drunk today?"
"Yes, if you don't get drunk, you won't return!"
Bai Ze immediately understood my intention, stood up and echoed: "Today in Sanssouci Village, a few of us are really carefree in our hearts, it's rare to have such a good time, village chief, don't go." ”
The village chief was pulled by our arms and couldn't get out of his body, so he could only say in a pleading tone: "Several, let's do this today, I really can't continue to drink today, you don't see that the sun is about to go down!" ”
I was puzzled and asked, "Does the sun go down and we drink?" ”
"Yes, it has a lot to do with it!"
The village chief said in a trembling voice: "As soon as the sun goes down, the reptilian ghosts outside will take advantage of the darkness to break into the village, and if they don't return to the wooden building before then, they may be eaten by the reptilian ghosts!" ”
After finishing speaking, the village chief didn't explain too much, and beckoned everyone to quickly pack up the dishes and chopsticks and return to their rooms.
A few of us, led by the village chief, came to a corner of the corridor on the eighth floor, where there were several empty single rooms, which had been laid with bedding, and the village chief told us not to come out after nightfall, saying that we lived on the sixth floor, and that we could find him if there was anything, and then left on our own.
Strange to say, the village chief just left, suddenly, the world became dark, I looked up, but saw that the sun did not know when, has disappeared without a trace!
This is so strange, a few of us looked at each other, and we all felt a little incredible.
As we all know, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, which is a slow process, but the sun here was still high in the middle of the sky just now, and it disappeared in a flash, suddenly turning from day to night, which is really a bit weird.
"Mr. Cheng, hurry back to the house!"
At this time, the shouts of the village chief came from downstairs, and it seemed that he had seen a few of us still standing in the corridor without moving.
I answered, turned back to the house, and closed the door.
"Guys, what do you think?"
I turned back to Lonnie and asked.
"This village is so weird, except for the sudden disappearance of the sun, those villagers are also a little strange."
Ronnie held her chin and said, "Although they have been saying that they are carefree in Sanssouci Village, I always feel that the smiles on each of their faces are like piles up, which is a little crazy. ”
"That's right,"
Bai Ze also nodded and said, "There must be something wrong with the wine that the village chief let us drink, if we didn't get it out of the body in time at that time, maybe it would have become the same as those villagers." ”
"Why don't we go out and investigate later, maybe we can find some clues."
Quietly proposed.
The idea of being quiet is exactly what I want, since the village chief said that we are not allowed to go out after dark, then we should go out to see what will happen outside.
"Someone's coming!"
At this moment, I suddenly heard a sound of rustling footsteps outside.
It's a slight sound, but how can it escape our ears?
I looked at me, and several people quickly lay down on the bed, closed their eyes, and pretended to be asleep, and Bai Ze even let out a heavy snoring sound.
Through the afterglow, I vaguely saw a figure standing outside the window for a moment, making sure we were all asleep, and then turned to leave.
"Let's go!"
When there was no movement outside, I waved my hand, beckoned everyone to get up, quietly pushed open the door and looked outside, and when we saw that the hallway was empty, we crept out.
As far as the eye can see, it is pitch black all around, there is no starlight on the sky, the whole wooden building is as silent as death, and all the villagers seem to have fallen into a deep sleep, without making the slightest movement.
Walking to the top of the stairs, we were about to go downstairs when we suddenly heard the whispers of several people downstairs.
We hurried to the side of the stairs and listened to the conversation below.
"Are those people asleep?"
The first thing that came was the voice of the village chief.
"Don't worry, village chief, I saw it just now, our wine is drugged, and they will definitely not wake up for a while."
I could hear another voice, it was a manager who was sitting next to me before, I remember it was Huang Wang.
"That's good,"
The village chief said: "These people are not simple, first stabilize them, don't do it for the time being." ”
Huang Wang said: "But tonight is the time to sacrifice to the gods, if you don't move them, who are we going to look for?" ”
The village chief said, "Then let's pull someone randomly, anyway, no one will remember him the next day." ”
"Good!"
Huang Wang nodded, and then stopped the conversation below.
I poked my head out, and saw Huang Wang leading a few cadres into a room on the sixth floor, and after a while, a few people walked out carrying a person who was tied up by five flowers.
The man struggled desperately, but he stuffed cotton in his mouth, and he couldn't make a sound at all.
"Let's go!"
As soon as the village chief waved his hand, several village cadres behind him lifted the villager and walked down the stairs.
The conversation between the village chief and Huang Wang just now was very informative, but now we didn't think much about it, so we followed.
After going downstairs, the village chief and others carried the villager and climbed towards the hill we passed during the day.
When they reached the halfway point of the mountain, the group put the villager down, knelt down one after another, and bowed down to the heavens.
