Dusk has passed and night has fallen.
When the residents of Lishan Town were immersed in their leisure time after a day's work, a figure slowly walked from the town towards the mountains. Wuming walked leisurely, with all the recent abnormalities flashing through his mind. The bloody ferocious birds, the riots of wild beasts in the mountains, and the bloody moonflower lotus.
All these signs indicate that unknown changes have occurred in the mountains. It is necessary to investigate clearly what happened in order to make corresponding preparations in advance to avoid misfortunes.
But what the young man didn't know was that after he walked into the mountains, several uninvited guests came to Lishan Town, and what kind of disaster they would bring to Lishan Town.
Several groups of black shadows kept moving back and forth in the dark night. Both domestic and wild dogs in the town were barking, and all domestic animals became restless. Some townspeople would be attracted by the barking of dogs outside to check, only to see their own dogs shrinking. Trembling in the corner, there were uneasy barks, but I didn't find anything, so I had to bark at the dog to stop barking, and then went back to the house.
The black shadow finally stopped in the square in the center of the town, and more than a dozen figures emerged. The leader looked at the hundreds of lights in Lishan Town and nodded with satisfaction, but his eyes showed a bloodthirsty light, and his hands were hidden under the black robe. With a wave of his hand, a bloody ray of light rose into the sky, and stayed there when it reached a certain point. When the light dissipated, it was discovered that it was actually a flag.
The flag continued to exude blood, dyeing the moon with blood. The blood turned into blood mist and enveloped the entire town of Lishan. The townspeople in the formation did not know what had happened, and the animals in the house were all restless, as if they had encountered an extremely terrifying experience. thing.
After the leader nodded, the other figures quickly turned into black shadows and headed in various directions.
Wuming here also didn't know what was going on. He first planned to go to the place where the moonlight flower grew to investigate and see what clues he might be able to discern. Even if the beast didn't riot, it was extremely dangerous.
Walking on mountain roads at night is very dangerous. In addition to the difficulty of seeing the road, there may be dangers hidden in the darkness.
Wuming found a cave. There was no light in the cave, as if an abyss could swallow him at any time.
Wuming took out a fire stick from his waist and blew it gently, causing a ball of open flame to rise. Then he walked into the cave. The terrain inside the cave was complicated, with various tunnels and slopes intertwined together. There were many animal bones on the ground that had entered by mistake. Once these animals go deep, they can never get out. Even Wuming, who is familiar with the cave, dare not enter easily.
Wuming walked in the dark cave for a long time, turned more than a dozen turns, and after seeing a faint light ahead, he extinguished the fire and put it away. He might be trapped in this complicated terrain for the rest of his life.
Wuming recalled the scene when he was playing hide-and-seek with his friends in the town. He hid in this cave, lost his way, and howled in the cave. He couldn't help but feel scared. If the master hadn't found him, he didn't know he would still be in this cave. stay How long. After that, he was grounded by his master for a whole month, and he didn't want to experience this painful experience again.
From the narrow tunnel to the wide cave, it suddenly became clear. Wuming also let out a sigh of relief. He didn't like the narrow tunnel, which gave him a feeling of breathlessness.
Different from the bare stone walls, there is a paddy field in the center of the cave, and above the flower field is a skylight. The Moon Flower Lotus grows by absorbing the moonlight passing through the skylight.
At this point, the moon just reaches the skylight above the head, and the moonlight falls like a veil. The blossoming moon lotuses are illuminated by the moonlight and flash like a sea of light. The water also shines under the moonlight.
Wuming had no intention of appreciating such beautiful scenery, because he found that the moonflower lotuses in the paddy field were all covered with a layer of blood. Different from the light blood color before, this time it was like real blood. Wuming suddenly raised his head and looked at the blood on the entrance of the cave. Moon, murmured to himself: "Moon Flower Lotus, Moon Flower Lotus, yes, Moon Flower Lotus grows by absorbing the essence of moonlight. The reason why Moon Flower Lotus is bloody is because of the top of the head. The blood moon! It’s the blood color brought by the blood moon!”
The moon in the sky that should be bright is crying blood! It stares at the earth like a scarlet eyeball, and the blood-colored moonlight casts its gaze on the earth.
Seeing this blood moon made Wuming feel a throbbing feeling. Qi and blood surged in his body. He quickly closed his eyes and walked out of the moonlight. "Humph~" Wuming gasped and walked out of the cave.
This blood moon gave him an ominous premonition. He had to rush to the town to tell the residents about the blood moon, and be careful of the changes caused by the blood moon.
"I know, I know! The changes in the past few days are all related to the blood moon. Whether it is the riots of ferocious birds or beasts, or the bloody moonlight flowers, they are all related to the blood moon!" I thought! Due to this kind of connection, Wuming couldn't help but speed up his pace, and finally started running in the forest at night.
On the road, Wuming heard the roar of wild beasts in the mountains. At this time, the beasts that should have been sleeping woke up and roared like crazy. Suddenly the ground beneath their feet began to shake, forcing Wuming to stop and observe what happened.
Suddenly Wuming's pupils shrank, and he saw wild beasts running out of the woods one after another, turning into a mighty team and running down the mountain.
"This is...a beast riot!" Wuming was shocked by the scene in front of him. He had never seen such a large-scale beast riot. "Damn it! What is this blood moon? Why did it cause such a big change!"
Suddenly Wuming noticed something and stopped. He looked carefully and looked at the direction where these beasts were rushing down the mountain, and the first one to bear the brunt was Lishan Town!
At this time, Wuming no longer cared about his own body and safety. Relying on his understanding of the terrain, he quickly ran down the mountain. As he ran, he took out the powder to repel wild beasts from his waist, smearing it on his body and spreading it in the air. , at this time, he was extremely anxious. If the beast was allowed to come to the town, it would be an unimaginable disaster!
When Wuming arrived at the foot of the mountain, his clothes were in tatters, his body was covered in bruises and bruises, and his delicate face was stained with mud. Even with the powder to drive away wild beasts, he was still in danger. He was almost killed by wild beasts several times. I bumped into him, and because I was so anxious, my feet slipped and I almost lost my footing and fell down the cliff.
But the scene in front of him shocked Wuming even more than the tide of beasts. Lishan Town was surrounded by blood mist and it was impossible to see what was going on inside. Some of the beasts that rushed down rushed elsewhere.
Some beasts stopped in front of the town, with low roars coming from their mouths, and their legs kept moving back. Although their eyes were full of blood, it was not difficult to see what these beasts were afraid of. It seemed that there was something in the blood mist that was attracting them. They, but the instinct of beasts told them that there was danger inside, so they lingered outside the blood mist, reluctant to leave for a long time.
"This blood mist is also brought by the blood moon? But why is it only surrounding the town? What happened here?" With confusion and doubts, Wuming quickly rushed into the town from a place where there were no beasts. The town that was originally familiar, now The time was so unfamiliar, and the color of blood made people shudder.
"Huh?" The man in black sitting on the ground in the center of the square frowned, then relaxed again and chuckled: "I didn't expect that a little white mouse would break in. It really came to my door!" He raised his head and signaled to a man in black in front of him. The man in black bowed and clasped his fists to show his understanding and then quickly ran towards one side.
The square was densely packed with people. They were all residents of Lishan Town. There were more than a thousand people. At this moment, their eyes were dull and they were all standing motionless. There was a man in black standing in every direction. , watching all this silently, although he said nothing, the madness in his eyes can make people feel scared at a glance.
The leading man in black raised his head and glanced at the blood moon in the sky. At this time, the blood of the blood moon was thick and had reached its peak. The man in black stood up and waved his big hand, a blood glow shot up into the sky and said loudly: "The time has come. The Blood Moon God Festival begins!" As soon as he finished speaking, the blood moon in the sky shone brightly, like the sun.
All the townspeople raised their heads, opened their mouths wide, and bloody mist rose from their mouths, but they could not speak and could only express their pain through the sobs in their throats. For a moment, the entire square wailed. All over the place, long snakes of blood gathered in the direction of the moon. The moon in the sky became more and more bloody, but the bodies of the townspeople on the ground gradually began to dry up.
On the other side, Wuming advanced cautiously. He didn't know what happened, but he knew it was definitely not a good thing. All the residents in the town were gone. The doors of the houses were all open, but no one was seen. The air was filled with a strong smell of blood. It made him nauseous, and then he noticed long bloody ropes extending upward in the distant sky, "That direction is... the square?"
After thinking for a moment, he decided to go in this direction. Rather than wandering around without direction, it would be better to go in this direction and maybe everything would be there.
Suddenly, Wuming felt a chill on his back, and the hairs all over his body stood up. He turned around and quickly stepped back. A man in black was standing behind him, staring at him. Although he had a smile on his face, he didn't care. Looking at it this way, this big man definitely didn't have any good intentions towards him.
The big man didn't waste any time and grabbed him with his big hands. Wuming was not stupid enough to let himself be caught. He turned his body to the side and waved one hand towards the strong man, sending a large amount of powder towards the strong man's eyes. , the strong man did not expect this boy to be so agile, he was fascinated for a moment and was fascinated by the nameless beast-repelling powder. This powder contained some stimulating medicinal substances, so it could drive away wild beasts.
"Ah! You ant actually dares to sneak up on me! I'm going to kill you!" The strong man felt that his eyes were very hot, as if they were blinded by chili sauce. He kept rubbing his eyes with his hands, and they turned red in a moment.
"Where's the man! Where has this little brat gone!" As soon as the strong man could see clearly, he realized that the Wuming in front of him was gone.
At this time, Wuming was hiding in a house, not daring to vent his anger and make any noise. He just hoped that the strong man would leave quickly if he couldn't find him.
"Huh?" The big man scanned for a week and found Wuming's whereabouts. "I found you." A cruel smile appeared on the big man's face. He knew clearly where Wuming was but was not in a hurry. Wuming in the house heard the footsteps getting closer and closer. , the heart is beating faster and faster.
