You can roughly guess what happens next in the village without looking at it. People are being eaten by each other. If someone can't bear to have his family members eaten, he starts to hunt other villagers. Then the order of the entire village collapses in an instant, and the weak are hunted one after another. kill.
Shao Haoyue took a deep breath and exhaled it slowly to distance herself from those emotions and maintain calm thinking.
In this natural disaster, the tragedy of exchanging children and eating them should have happened in many places, but only this Banyan Tree Village has a particularly strong demonic aura, and there must be a reason for this.
When Niu Niu died, Rongshu Village became a purgatory. There was no sign of evil guidance, and there were no supernatural events beyond the ordinary in the village. This can basically rule out the possibility that evil spirits used Rongshu Village as the source.
She remembered the team organized by Rongshu Village that went to Jinding Mountain to pray to the gods, and decided to go to Jinding Mountain to explore. If she could find those people's belongings, she could use the relocation technique again to see what happened to them after they left the village.
The question is, where is Jinding Mountain?
The villagers' daily speeches mostly talk about how efficacious the mountain god of Jinding Mountain is. Drought brings heavy rain; newlyweds who have been childless for many years pray for a child and get a child; people who have been sick all year round are cured...
It can be said that he is the omnipotent god in Rongshu Village, who can ask for anything.
The old village chief's first proposal to organize people to pray was put on hold, indicating that the location of Jinding Mountain is far away from Rongshu Village, so far that the hope of reaching it is slim.
With insufficient information, Shao Haoyue could only use the stupidest method to search one by one with Rongshu Village as the center.
Finally, on a small hill more than seventy thousand miles away from Rongshu Village, a dog tooth threaded with silk thread was found. It was an accessory worn by Lin Wenxuan around his neck.
Without hesitation, she used the technique of retracing her movements again. The scenery blurred, and the familiar and desperate pouring rain came into view.
Lin Wenxuan, as a young man who was loved by the villagers, had a much wider range of activities than that little girl Niu Niu. Shao Haoyue simply went back in time. There was a drought before the heavy rain. There was no abnormality in the drought. Things enter Rongshu Village.
After verifying her conjecture, she adjusted the time to when Lin Wenxuan and his party left the village and left the range of her consciousness.
There were two wooden boats, with two strong men and one boy on each boat. The men paddled hard with makeshift wood pulp, while the two boys kept scooping out the rainwater on the boat with wooden ladles.
The teenagers' bodies were tense, paying close attention to the adults' movements, and the fear in their eyes almost overflowed.
Shao Haoyue knew from the cryptic conversations among the strong men before they set off that these two young men were brought with them as food.
The reason why they were chosen was that they were both fifteen or sixteen years old and would not be a drag on the road. Second, they were unable to reach Jinding Mountain in time due to an accident, so the two of them were ready-made food choices.
Lin Wenxuan was an orphan. Normally the villagers didn't mind helping him and showing him kindness. But at this time, if they could let other families' children go, they would not let their own children go. The helpless Lin Wenxuan was the first choice.
Another young man was named Fan Bei. The Fan family had a foreign surname and was weak in Rongshu Village. He was the first villager to discuss the matter. Fan's father and mother cried and begged to no avail and watched helplessly as their son was taken away.
Outside the village, there was a vast ocean. They traveled on the water for seven days, and the 'food' they brought out had already been eaten. After a day of hunger, the men set their eyes on Fan Bei.
When their eyes turned to Fan Bei, Fan Bei jumped up and jumped to the stern of the boat in one breath. Like a frightened wolf, he stared at them warily. His right hand was behind his back, and his left hand was firmly holding the wooden ladle for scooping water, lying across the chest.
The strong men did not take him seriously. One of the two big men in the same boat with him took two steps forward. Fan Bei's hand holding the wooden ladle trembled and he swallowed unconsciously, "Jiang, Second Uncle Jiang."
"Boy Fan, don't blame your uncles for being cruel. If you want to survive in the face of natural disasters, you have to be cruel. If I survive, I will definitely take care of your parents."
With that said, he reached out and grabbed Fan Bei.
Fan Bei was horrified, waving the wooden ladle and hitting his hand, shouting in panic, "No! No! Second Uncle Jiang..."
He was hit several times by the wooden gourd. The pain made the man named Jiang lose all his remaining unbearability, and he waved his fist fiercely.
A bolt of lightning pierced the night sky, briefly illuminating the darkness.
A flash of evil flashed across Fan Bei's eyes very quickly. He bent down to avoid the fist. When the man named Jiang approached him, he dropped the wooden ladle. His right hand hidden behind him was revealed, holding a dagger in his hand.
Instead, he held the knife with both hands and stabbed the man's abdomen fiercely. Without a moment's hesitation, he quickly pulled out and thrust in again, withdrawing and thrusting again and again.
The short man surnamed Jiang from Fan Bei was a head taller, and they were face to face again. Almost all the bright red blood was sprayed on his face. His expression was extremely twisted and crazy, and he looked as ferocious as an evil ghost soaked in blood.
Everyone was stunned and froze on the spot. Lin Hu reacted quickly and shouted to another man on the boat: "Lao He!"
The man surnamed He woke up from a dream and wanted to go up to help. Fan Bei quickly kicked the man surnamed Jiang and shouted loudly: "He is dead, there is already food!"
The man surnamed He stopped and looked down. The man surnamed Jiang fell on the slightly tilted ship's board. A pair of eyes were staring at him, with no light. His abdomen and chest were bloody and bloody, and half of his intestines even fell out.
The strong smell of blood was overwhelming, and the brutal wounds were horrifying. The man surnamed He took a step back unconsciously, and a cold air shot straight from the soles of his feet to the sky, which was even colder than heavy rain.
"My parents, it's better for me to go back and take care of them myself, so that my uncles and uncles won't have to worry about it!" The young man's voice sounded, his voice was trembling, but his tone was resounding, firm and cruel.
The man surnamed He slowly raised his eyes. The young man was holding a dagger with a sinister look in his eyes. He looked like a wolf cub in the forest. Once they met, he would try his best to bite the enemy to death.
Facing such a wolf cub, he was not sure or confident that he could kill him. He turned to look at Lin Hu, the leader of the trip, and said, "Brother Tiger."
Lin Hu saw his cowardice at a glance and secretly scolded him for being stupid. If there is one thing, there will be two. There is no way that such a wolf cub will die obediently. This time it was Chiang Kai-shek, what about next time?
However, the top priority right now is to find Jinding Mountain. Since the 'food' is already there, there is no need to do anything else.
The rest of the journey was peaceful. They didn't meet anyone, but they saw a lot of stinking corpses, both human and animal.
Finally, before the 'food' ran out, they arrived at Jinding Mountain, which was a mountain peak that reached into the sky. The torrential floods reached the front of the mountain and became docile, flowing away from both sides of the mountain.
On the top of the mountain, the bells ring peacefully and far away, and the rays of light appear. No matter how thick the dark clouds are, they cannot hide its light. It is a miracle and the only hope.
