After visiting four nineties, it's already more than nine o'clock in the evening. The old people feel early. If it's young people in the city, it's the same time as in the evening. Sleeping in the early morning is the king! But in the village, I went to bed early, especially for the old people, so I didn't bother and left early.
The four old people in their nineties, except for the one at the beginning, and Mr. Zhao at the east end of the village, did not participate in the forest time, but they still know the legend of Mountain God handed down by the older generation. The version, after all, is a legend. There are differences in some details. Everyone's words are different, but they are about the same.
I have also carefully thought about why the legend of Mountain God has not been handed down. There should be two main reasons. First, because of opposing superstition, people's ideas began to evolve, and some legends began to fade. Second, it may be because of this.
In my opinion, those monkeys, even the blue one, can't speak human words. What they say and what they threaten are imaginary out of fear. Moreover, because of the majesty of the mountain god, they may hear such words as "don't pass on this matter, but they will be punished".
As a result, it is because of this that the legend has broken down in their generation. Although they still believe that there are mountain gods, they dare not tell others any more. This time, such a big thing happened, and I proposed that I wanted to go to the woods, which made him tell the story of Mountain God in fear.
"What now, sir?" Baron asked.
"I don't know, mountain god How come there's another blue one? Now this white haired monster is a headache. If these two things can be solved together, it would be better. Forget it, let's go step by step. No matter what, we can't go to basher tonight. Let's have a rest. We'll leave for the woods tomorrow morning, and you'll arrange group patrol tonight and take turns to have a rest to prevent the monster from attacking the village at night. "
"Yes! What's more, do you need to hand them over to Yin Kai? "
"Well No need. Now there is only a white haired monster here. It may be just that a small bottle has fallen nearby like last time. What we are looking for is all the goods. Don't contact them and let them continue to work. "
"Yes, sir."
……
At three o'clock in the morning, all the people in liujiacun fell asleep. I lived in a temporary residence, sleeping and working my mana to prepare for tomorrow's action. I don't need cross legged meditation in TV dramas to practice. I can live a normal life. Even if I sleep, my practice can continue. Not only that, enough sleep can also keep me in a good mental state.
A group of members of the shadow army sleep in a big room. At this time, ten people have woken up and are sorting out their clothes and checking their weapons, because it is their turn to patrol soon. Originally, I wanted to let more people patrol. It's not enough for ten people to patrol a village, but I can't help it. I took these people with me. In order to keep my mental state, I had to take turns to rest, so I had to divide them into groups.
"When it's time, they're coming back. The officer said, we can't let vacancies appear in the village. We have to go out early and let's go." As the captain of the man is the hat, the first to open the door and go out, people around are also followed up, out of the house.
This is really what I ordered. I want to ensure the safety of the village. However, if one team comes back and another team is sent out, there will be a vacancy for patrol for a period of time, which may lead to danger. Therefore, I specially remind them that before one team comes back, the other team must start. But
"Ah
A scream, broke the sky, broke the silence of the morning.
"What's going on?" I suddenly sat up from bed and rushed out - I was dressed when I went to bed to make sure I could deal with emergencies in time.
Around, "Shua Shua -" two figures flash, Baron and Lang Feng have arrived, a dignified face.
"Sir..."
"Don't ask me, go to see where the accident happened, and where the patrol people are. Go quickly!"
"Yes
Two figures flash again, two people have disappeared.
In fact, my arrangement is reasonable, but it's really useless. Liujia village is such a big village, surrounded by mountains and lots of trees. The monster appears in any place, and there are only ten people on patrol. Even if two teams appear together, twenty people can't prevent it!
However, the people of the shadow army are not vegetarians. They should be safe inside and dangerous outside.
When I thought about it, my body moved and moved in an instant. I used it in high frequency and ran directly to the edge of the village
……
"This is The beast is out! The beast is out of the woods
Outside the village, in a family near the woods, an old woman fell on her bedroom bed. The sheets and quilts were all red. The woman's eyes were wide open, as if she had seen something terrible. Another, a middle-aged man, fell not far from the door of his home. It seemed that he wanted to run away, but he was overtaken before he ran to the door.Many neighbors gathered here because of the disturbance. The scars on the man and the old woman were obviously scratched by the teeth of wild animals. It was clear who the murderer was. The young people who came to take risks heard that there were wild animals hurting people, and they all came quickly.
Because their companions had just passed away, they couldn't sleep at all. One night, they were half asleep and half awake, and they would wake up with a little noise, let alone such a shrill scream.
"It's them! Never before have wild animals come out to hurt people, it is because of them that they attract wild animals out! "
It was a young man who looked like he was in his twenties. He was also a relative of the family. Because of the Spring Festival, every family had a lot of relatives, and those outside the village came back, but some did not live in a yard.
This time, it was his two elder relatives who died. The degree of anger can be imagined! What's more, he's right about this. It never happened before, but it happened that after the expedition, he couldn't find the beast to pay for his life, so he could only vent his anger to them.
"What did you say? It's all our fault? Our companion is dead, too. Why don't you say so? " The woman was not happy at that time, and immediately yelled.
"Well, well, what's the noise? Don't shout. Calm down
The people of the shadow army blocked in the middle of the two groups, and at the same time quickly blocked the scene to investigate the situation. In the bedroom, I have used instant movement to enter in advance, came to the bedroom window, carefully looking at the damaged window frame.
Obviously, the thing rushed in through the window, because it's winter now, and the window is closed. It doesn't have intelligence. Even if it has intelligence, it can't open a locked window from the outside, so it can only rush in with violence, and the broken glass and broken window frame scattered and spread most of the room.
In fact, the beds in the village are basically Kang, which are built close to the wall, so the thing rushed into the window and directly fell on the bed. With one hand raised, the old woman was solved first. Because the movement is too big, startled that man, but that monster did not care at all, rushed out directly, wanted to take double kill.
The man is not reckless. He knows he can't fight. He wants to run out for help. There are not only neighbors but also shadow army outside. It's safe to go out. But his speed can't catch up with that monster, and finally he is chased from behind and chopped down to the ground with one claw just a little bit away from the door.
And then what?
"Which one of you saw that monster What about the beast I went to the door and yelled.
"Beast Ah, I seem to see it One of the onlookers thought for a moment and said.
"What does it look like? Where did you run from? Which way are you going? "
"Look It's too dark. I can't see clearly. It seems that I ran through the door. I'm going that way! " He said, reaching out in a direction.
"From the door..." I looked at the gate, and it was true that there were signs of damage. Maybe it was because the door lock was too rubbish, and it took too long. It was damaged when it was hit, and the door plate itself was protected. When the door was opened normally, the monster ran out. The damage was only the lock and a small part of the area.
"Come with me!"
I yelled, directly used taimingbu, ran in the direction that the man pointed to, and ran to the outside of the forest. Behind me, Baron, Lang Feng, and members of the shadow army also followed me quickly, and soon came to me.
"Strange, how come there are no footprints?" I looked at the snow on the ground and frowned.
Because there are few animals in the forest in winter, few hunters will go up the mountain to hunt at this time. They suffer and can't get anything good. So the snow should be very clean. I thought that the monster would come out of the footprints. Recently, it is the only one who comes in and out of the forest. The footprints should be very clear. If you follow the footprints, you may find something, but I didn't expect that The row failed.
"No, sir, look there!" Baron pointed to a place and said.
When I looked at it, he didn't mean the earth, but the sky. When I looked at it carefully, it wasn't the sky. He meant the branches that run across the sky.
In winter, when all the leaves are gone, the branches can see clearly, and there is a lot of snow on them, but I found that the snow on a branch almost opposite to me suddenly lost a piece!
It's like a group of tall people standing in a small person. It's nothing to look at. But if you look at it from a high place, you will see that there is a little space in the crowd, like a pit on the ground.
I set up the air defense technique and flew to the edge of the branch. Sure enough, I could see the appearance of being scratched by my hand from the trace!
Looking up again, there are still many branches in front of us. The snow on them is like this, stretching all the way to the deep.
Do you mean That monster was a monkey?!
Yes! So the explanation is clear! A monkey monster attacked the family, because they like to move in the tree, so there is no footprint on the ground, and the legendary Mountain God is also the shape of a monkey!It's a pity that the man didn't see the characteristics of this thing. As far as I know, there are two kinds of things. One is the white haired monster, which was seen by the explorers. It's true. The other is the monkey, which was a green haired one 80 years ago We should die early now, but we can't rule out having offspring. Which one of them is the one who came here this time?
Wait, there's another explanation. They're the same! The blue monkey just picked up the bottle, and the blue hair turned into white hair.
This also makes sense. Moreover, things will be simple. Two things and one thing can be solved at one time!
"Shadow army elite team!"
"Yes!"
"At once, follow me into the woods!"
"Yes
"Sir!" Cried Baron at once. "It's only three o'clock in the morning. It's good for them at this time."
"I know, but I can't wait. Before, I thought they would not come out on their own, but now they can't. We can't just defend, we have to attack!"
"Then we'll be together."
"No!" I stopped. "You and Lang Feng stay. This village has too much contact with the forest! I took the elite team away, leaving only a team to protect. I still don't feel at ease. I feel at ease with you. Those things are wild animals. They are more flexible in the woods than us, and the risk coefficient of the village will increase! Since I'm here, I must be responsible for the safety of this village. You must protect this place. "
"But..."
"Don't worry," I said. "We can still connect with each other, can't we? Besides, I have an amulet. "
