Chapter 360: You must feed the Mountain God well
As the black cloth fell to the ground like a heavy dark cloud,
Everyone’s eyes were firmly fixed Attracted,
I was finally able to see clearly the true face of the so-called mountain god in Xiashui Village.
It was actually a towering ancient tree, its appearance was extremely majestic,
It is like a giant standing tall on the sky and the earth, inserted straight into the depths of the sky, as if it is about to break through the sky.
The lush branches and leaves stretch out all around, like a huge green umbrella,
And the layers of entangled vines are like countless smart snakes, densely intertwined. Together,
it is like a huge overwhelming net, covering everything around it,
exuding a suffocating sense of oppression.
This tree is anything but ordinary. Its trunk and vines are dyed a dull brownish red.
The color is rich and deep, as if it has been repeatedly soaked in countless thick blood in the long river of time,
and then gradually dried up in the ruthless passage of time,
< br>In the end, such shocking and chilling traces were left,
silently telling a bloody and terrifying past.
What's even more creepy is that there is a hemp rope hanging on every vine of this tree.
These hemp ropes are carefully woven into the shape of collars, like life-threatening shackles,
tightly strangling one living life after another.
Those lives,
are young men with handsome figures and resolute faces. They should have made great achievements in the world.
There are young girls with gentle faces and graceful figures. Their smiles should have bloomed like flowers in the sun.
There are also those children who are still childlike and innocent.
Their world has not really opened yet, but it has been mercilessly swallowed by darkness.
Their figures criss-crossed the tree,
together they sketched a tragic, heartbreaking and horrifying picture.
Children accounted for most of them, and their pink little faces
still had some innocent smiles,
but this smile has now been replaced by the cold coldness of death. Completely shrouded in aura,
became twisted and weird, as if it were a taunt from hell.
Every person who was hanged was naked,
Although the physical body has lost the warmth and breath of life, it still strangely retains the freshness of life.
It just sleeps quietly in this eternal darkness and can never be awakened again.
Their necks were deeply cut into the hemp ropes,
The sunken marks were like deep ravines,
It was eye-catching and tragic, nakedly declaring Their lives long gone.
What's even more terrifying is that all the people who were hanged closed their eyes tightly,
their faces were as peaceful as if they were dreaming of a sweet dream,
but this dream was filled with endless darkness. with death.
Their bodies are so light that they seem to have no weight at all.
Whenever a gust of night wind blows quietly like a ghost, the hanging hemp ropes will sway gently,
Their bodies slowly swayed as a result,
like a strange dance directed by the God of Death.
Under the dim light of the fire, these scenes were magnified infinitely,
Pushing the horror and weirdness of the whole picture to the extreme,
It makes people feel It was like being in Abi Hell, my soul was trembling constantly.
Lai Yuyao, Sun Canxing and Yu Yingjie,
and the young men and women around them,
witnessed this nightmare-like scene,
shocked, fearful and angry. The tides intertwined and collided in their hearts.
Their hearts seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible big hand,
Breathing also becomes fast and difficult,
Every time you take a breath, you will inhale endless fear.
This weird giant tree,
and the innocent lives that were hanged,
weave together a creepy and spine-chilling horror story. ,
It makes people fall into the abyss of fear,
the body can't help shaking,
but the eyes seem to be cast by magic, and they can't move away from this terrible scene.
At this moment,
Chu He, Sun Canxing and Lai Yuyao’s minds seemed to flash with lightning,
The scattered fragments of information obtained before were automatically pieced together like a puzzle at this moment.
All the mysteries and doubts were suddenly revealed at this moment.
"I know!"
Lai Yuyao's eyes widened in anger,
Clenched his fists tightly with both hands, the joints of his slender fingers turned white from the exertion,
She said harshly, "Why did we sneak into Xiashui Village last night and see such an unsightly scene?
It turns out that you villagers in Xiashui Village,
are here At night, I work like crazy to carry on the family line,
just to have more children,
Then serve those poor children as sacrifices to this weird tree!
What a bullshit mountain god, it’s obviously you people who are doing all kinds of evil!
Now you deliberately lead us here,
Say what mountain gods will protect us and give us blessings,
let us go smoothly and safely To escape this crisis of evil spirits,
In fact, they plan to sacrifice all of us to this evil tree.
In this way, in this sacrificial ceremony,
you in the village of Xiashui no longer have to sacrifice the lives of your own village.
You, Chang Baining, have extremely sinister intentions and should be cut to pieces! "
"You sneaked into the water village last night. ”
Chang Baining seemed to have been touched by the most sensitive nerve in his heart.
He momentarily ignored Lai Yuyao's scolding behind him.
His eyes were like a cold sharp blade, piercing straight towards that person. A few young and strong men.
In his heart, this is the biggest secret in the entire Xiashui Village and cannot be lost.
Obviously a special guard had been arranged last night, and I thought everything was safe,
In the end, they sneaked in without anyone noticing,
and saw all the unspeakable things. This was simply a disaster.
The faces of the young and strong men who were watched by Chang Baining instantly turned pale,
and their bodies shivered involuntarily like fallen leaves in the autumn wind.
Although Chang Baining is just an ordinary person, he does not have any strange powers.
But the majesty and coldness in his eyes
made these burly, young and strong men
as if they had seen the most terrifying demon in the world. The fear inside me surged like a tidal wave.
Their legs were shaking violently, and their knees kept colliding with each other,
making a clicking sound, and they were almost unable to support the weight of their bodies, as if they would soon Collapsed to the ground.
These young and strong men were the ones arranged by Chang Baining last night to take Chu He and others out of the village and then guard them.
It is now clear that they have committed an unforgivable dereliction of duty.
“If you can’t even do this little thing well,
you are just moths in Xiashui Village, only wasting food.
The next sacrificial ceremony will be completed by the few of you.
I believe that moths like you will not refuse to shine for our Xiashui Village for the last time. "
Chang Baining said expressionlessly, his voice was cold and indifferent,
It was like a sentence from the Nine Nether Hell, without a trace of warmth.
"Plop! Plop! Plop..."
When those young and strong men heard Chang Baining's words,
they felt that their hearts instantly sank to the bottom. This was tantamount to being sentenced. received the death penalty.
They knew that their fate was completely decided at this moment, leaving only a dead end.
Wait until the next sacrificial ceremony,
They will be like those who have died on this big tree,
hanging mercilessly on it, living in this endless darkness from generation to generation,
never being able to get relief, You can only become a victim of this evil sacrifice.
As for the family members of these young and strong men who were sentenced to their fate,
although they felt unbearable emotions in their hearts,
Their eyes were full of pain and despair, and some even secretly wiped away tears.
But they didn’t dare to stand up and say a word for them at all,
because Chang Baining’s majesty in Xiashui Village was too great,
like a towering High mountains, people can only look up at them and dare not disobey them in the slightest.
Even those young and strong men,
They may be the sons, brothers or relatives of some people present.
They can only watch helplessly and dare not do anything.
Then, Chang Baining made another gesture expressionlessly.
In an instant, the people in Xiashui Village who were present took out shotguns from behind or from their waists.
Those shotguns were pitch black, and their cold barrels shone coldly under the light of the fire,
They were all targeted at Chu He, Sun Canxing, Yu Yingjie, Lai Yuyao and others.
This group of young people were already in a state of extreme nervousness.
When they saw this scene, they were immediately startled and their bodies subconsciously shrank back.
They took a closer look and found that these shotguns were rough in workmanship.
They were obviously native guns made by the people in Xiashui Village themselves.
But even so, the black muzzle still exudes a deadly aura, making people shudder.
Chang Zimo held a heavy shotgun tightly in his hands. The shotgun seemed to be extremely heavy in his hands.
With a trace of determination in his eyes, he pulled the trigger without any hesitation.
There was a loud "Bang!"
It was like a thunder exploding in the silent mountain forest.
He saw a big tree next to him being broken in an instant.
The broken spot seemed to have been bitten by a giant beast, with sawdust flying and splattering everywhere.
This power is so powerful that it is staggering.
If even a low-level warrior is hit by such an attack,
I am afraid he will die or be disabled on the spot.
What's more, the group of young people in front of them who are not even qualified to call themselves low-level warriors
In front of this powerful firepower, they appear so small and fragile, as if they are lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
“I said you shouldn’t believe the guy wearing the black peaked cap,
I even doubted whether he was in cahoots with these unscrupulous people in Xiashui Village.
< br>If you had listened to me, you would not have fallen into this terrible trap step by step. ”
Zou Baixuan's whole figure seemed to have lost his supporting frame and collapsed on the ground.
His voice was crying, and he said almost collapsed.
The scene at this moment was like an unsolvable dead end,
The black muzzle of the gun was like a devil's eye, staring at them.
Facing the shotguns,
They felt like they were tightly trapped by a big invisible net,
even if they had wings, it would be difficult to escape.
Although there may be a few masters in the team,
it is possible to dodge shotgun bullets with their agility,
but Zou Baixuan knows in his heart that those people here A life-and-death moment,
I'm afraid they will only protect themselves, or at most they can escape with their students.
After all, those who are willing to be martial arts instructors are basically not that strong.
All in all, in his opinion, the vast majority of young men and women have fallen into the abyss of despair at this moment,
with no glimmer of hope in sight.
Chang Baining completely ignored the chaos in front of him. He slowly knelt down directly, his movements were pious and solemn.
His eyes were hot and fiery,
staring closely at the huge tree where countless people were hanged,
his eyes were full of awe and fanaticism,< br>
It seemed that it was not an evil tree, but the supreme god in his heart.
He said in an almost crazy tone: "Great mountain god!
These people are all sacrifices given to you by our Xiashui Village.
Please accept it, great mountain god. May our village go smoothly!"
After saying that, he pressed his forehead deeply to the ground,
his body trembled slightly, as if he was having some conversation with the gods. A mysterious exchange.
As Chang Baining finished speaking, the atmosphere in the mountains and forests instantly became even weirder.
Winds of dark winds shuttled through without warning like ghosts,
They carried an indescribable and strange power, whistling and wreaking havoc in the forest,
The sound of the wind was sharp and shrill, like the howling of ghosts and wolves coming from the depths of hell,
It directly struck the deepest fear in people's hearts,
It makes people feel creepy involuntarily, and every inch of skin trembles in this gloomy atmosphere.
What is strange is that despite the strong wind,
the branches and leaves of the seemingly ordinary trees are not affected at all,
they stand quietly In the same place, there is not even the slightest sway,
It seems that this dark wind is just an illusory existence and cannot touch the reality of this world.
However, it was this seemingly invisible wind that quietly changed the atmosphere of the entire forest.
With the raging wind, the temperature in the entire mountain forest dropped suddenly.
The biting cold was like countless tiny ice arrows,
Sneaking from all directions. The sound penetrates the air and pierces people's bone marrow.
This cold air is like countless tiny centipedes running along the gaps in the pores
It penetrates into people's skin silently, causing an indescribable itching and stinging sensation.
People can't help but feel goosebumps all over their body.
Every inch of skin is covered with it. He lost consciousness under the erosion of this strange force.
In this mountain forest shrouded by the cold wind, everything seems so unusual.
The cold wind brings not only coldness, but also endless fear and uneasiness,
It is like an invisible giant hand, tightly strangling this mountain forest,
and also strangling the hearts of everyone who is in it.
In this world shrouded in a strange atmosphere, every breath becomes extremely heavy,
Every thought is filled with fear and despair,
Any time It is possible to be swallowed up by this eerie forest and never escape.
This weird scene made everyone in Xiashui Village terrified.
They could no longer care about anything else. They all seemed to have had their backbones ripped out.
They knelt down one after another, their foreheads Sticking tightly to the ground, curling up into a ball,
daring not make any rash move.
They are praying silently in their hearts,
It is hoped that this sacrificial ceremony will satisfy the mountain gods and protect them from disaster.
"Run! The mountain god in Xiashui Village must be an evil spirit that is causing trouble everywhere!"
Finally, a young boy could no longer endure such an extremely terrifying atmosphere.
< br>His eyes were red, as if fear had ignited the fire in his heart.
He mustered up all his courage, roared, turned around and ran away in one direction.
This roar seemed to break some kind of imprisonment.
Hearing his roar, the other people suddenly seemed like sleepwalkers who had been awakened and could no longer stand.
Whether they are strong or weak, scared or relatively calm,
at this moment they are all like headless flies, rushing in a direction without hesitation.
There is only one thought in their minds at this time, and that is to run as fast as possible, as far as possible,
Never come back to this terrible place again.
Just escape from here and you can escape this endless nightmare.
However, the villagers of Xiashui Village and Chang Baining, who was still kneeling on the ground,
slowly raised their heads at this time.
Their eyes stared coldly at the group of young people running away,
There was no trace of anxiety on his face,
nor did he pick up a hoe, fork or shotgun again,
neither threatened nor intimidated them to stop them from leaving.
It’s just that the faces that seemed ordinary at first
at this moment have become ferocious and indifferent,
There was still a sarcastic smile hanging on the corner of his mouth, hiding countless secrets.
They just watched quietly, as if everything happening in front of them had nothing to do with them,
It also seemed that they had already determined a certain ending,
So Now I don't care whether this group of young people will succeed in escaping.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”
The young boy who was the first to loudly remind everyone to run quickly was undoubtedly the most responsive.
His figure was like a bolt of lightning,
shutting rapidly through this chaotic and terrifying sacrificial venue.
In a matter of seconds, he had already run to the edge of the sacrificial site,
only one step away from the boundary that symbolized freedom and escape.
As long as he can take this crucial step smoothly,
maybe he can completely escape from this nightmare-like predicament in front of him.
While escaping, the young boy was filled with doubts.
He really couldn’t understand why when he was escaping,
none of the villagers in Xiashui Village stood up to stop him?
They were clearly holding hoes, forks and shotguns that looked extremely lethal.
Are these just decorations used to scare people?
Obviously Chang Zimo fired a shot before,
it was so powerful that it could break a big tree into pieces,
but why are they so indifferent now?
"Escaped!"
The young boy's face was originally tense and tense due to nervousness and fear,
At this moment, at the moment when the boundary was about to be crossed,
A faint smile burst out involuntarily.
That smile is like a glimmer of light in the darkness,
Although it is weak, it brings a rare hope and relaxation to people.
But this relaxation did not last long, just like a meteor flashing across the night sky, it was fleeting.
Before his smile could fully spread on his face,
it froze at the corner of his mouth, as if a immobilizing spell had been cast on his entire body, unable to move.
There is no other reason than the foot that is about to take a step towards freedom,
He was hanging strangely in the air. No matter how hard he tried, he could not touch the solid ground.
There was an invisible force preventing his escape.
Immediately afterwards, an indescribable feeling of suffocation suddenly hit him like a raging tide.
His body instinctively began to struggle, and his hands quickly and subconsciously touched his neck.
What the fingertips touch is an unprecedented unique texture, rough with a little elasticity,
It has the hardness of ancient bark,
but also contains the softness and vitality of new shoots.
This feeling is so unfamiliar, definitely not anything he is familiar with.
A strong fear surged in his heart, and his hands began to pull hard,
trying to break free from this terrible shackles.
But the thing wrapped around his neck seemed to be alive,
strangling him tightly and not moving at all.
Not only that, as he struggled, the thing tightened even more,
It was like an invisible web woven by the devil, dragging him step by step into infinity of dark abyss.
As the thing continued to shrink, his breathing began to become extremely difficult,
Every inhalation was like a thrilling race against death.
His chest heaved violently, as if he was about to burst his chest,
his face quickly turned red in an instant, as if it was being burned by a raging fire.
His eyes were bulging, full of fear and despair,
It was the instinctive fear of death.
His feet, which were still barely supporting the weight of his body,
at this moment were like duckweeds that had lost their foundation,
gradually moving away from the support and comfort of the ground, hanging in the air Among them, swaying helplessly.
He is like a prey captured by a hunter, and can only be slaughtered by others without the ability to fight back.
The young boy tried his best to raise his head with difficulty,
His eyes struggled to penetrate the layers of darkness, as thick as ink.
Finally, he captured the source of the evil.
I saw only a hemp rope hanging quietly from the depths of the endless sky,
Like a poisonous snake hidden in the darkness, silent but exuding a chilling aura of death.
The hemp rope tightly strangled his throat, and with every contraction,
Just cut off his last connection with this world.
It is like the soul-locking rope in ancient legends that is designed to lock the soul.
It is ruthlessly dragging him bit by bit towards the unknown and terrifying dark abyss.
As his breathing gradually weakened,
it was also rising little by little, getting further and further away from the ground, further and further away from hope,
Until it seemed to be completely separated from the shackles of reality,
became a lonely and helpless desperate existence in the dark night sky.
At this moment, the breath of death is so close, and the young boy's heart is filled with reluctance and endless fear.
He knew clearly that it would not be long before
he would become another tragic victim in this strange scene,
Disappearing forever in this cursed land full of evil and terror,
becoming a forgotten and painful memory.
"Hahahahaha..."
Chang Baining stood up from the ground suddenly,
His face instantly became ferocious and terrifying,
< br>
His facial features seemed to be arbitrarily pulled and twisted by the devil's hands.
The laughter came from his mouth, especially vicious and sinister,
like a sharp sword, piercing straight into everyone. Human eardrums,
In such a terrifying and weird environment, he laughed without any scruples.
“Run away, you run away!”
His voice was sharp and crazy, like a roar from the depths of hell: "When you stand in front of the great mountain god,
when the sacrificial ceremony officially begins,
you All people are destined to become the food of the mountain god.
Originally, I was worried that the number of sacrifices this time would be too difficult,
but I never expected that.
You young people who don’t know how to live or die actually delivered it directly to your door.
I was just dozing off and someone gave me a pillow. This is really a blessing from God!
This time you have to feed the mountain god well, hahahaha..."
He laughed wildly and opened his arms,
It's like welcoming a grand and evil carnival,
It looked like he had seen the beautiful scene of the mountain god blessing Xiashui Village after being fed by these sacrifices.
The whole person was immersed in a twisted and perverted joy. , chilling.
