Xu Lang held the scarecrow behind the nameless with one hand, and slightly helped, bending down a little, keeping his balance and moving forward slowly.
"You mean, after you entered the yard, which households were taking a nap?"
This made Xu Lang a little bit astonished. This kind of thing sounds very nonsensical.
Sacrifice in Taohua Village is a ritual that is above all else, even as an ordinary villager, it should not be this painting.
Wuming was also very puzzled, and the tone was even more weird, "Yes, I was checking the situation in secret. The scarecrow was standing in the middle of the yard, but there was no movement in the house, and I did not show up for the first time out of caution, but The longer I waited, the longer I found no figure.
After I entered the house quietly, I saw that the two people of the family were lying on the kang, motionless, and my entry did not attract their attention.
I thought they were dead, but judging from the ups and downs of their chests, they were indeed asleep, as was the situation in another family. "
Xu Lang frowned when he heard it, which was a bit weird.
The scarecrow, regarded as a treasure, was just placed in the yard, and the villagers did not have any precautions, and fell asleep in the house!
This feeling... It's like someone guessed that Wuming was going to snatch the scarecrow and deliberately arranged it!
Xu Lang couldn't help looking around, saying it was a check. In fact, he just raised his ears and listened to see if there was anything nearby. Remember URL
This deliberate feeling was too strong, giving Xu Lang a faint feeling of falling into a trap, as if he had a pair of eyes watching him all the time, his every move, every step of the plan was under the control of that person.
Xu Lang was even more suspicious. He couldn't help but began to doubt the authenticity of the scarecrow, and patted the thick scarecrow behind him with some uncertainty.
"Have you checked the scarecrow?"
Wuming immediately understood Xu Lang's thoughts, but still shook his head slightly, "While realizing the weird situation, I also doubted whether I had won the trick, but after inspecting the scarecrow, no abnormalities were found. These are just a few extremely It's just an ordinary scarecrow, there is no mystery."
This makes Xu Lang feel even more wrong. If this is really the strategy of the Taohua Village people, then when everything seems normal, it is too abnormal!
This time, Xu Lang didn't think that his suspicion was a bad thing. On the contrary, the more you reached the last moment, the more you had to be cautious.
Xu Lang's brows were condensed into a knot, but after all he could not think of a reason, this feeling of being out of control made him a bit like a thorny back.
The inhuman scarecrow behind made him feel that it was a hidden danger, but he had to remember it again!
Xu Lang didn't think about it anymore. Since the matter had reached this point, he could only move forward, but a little abnormality was not enough to overthrow his life guesses.
This time they entered the tomb mountain, instead of taking the old road they used to, they changed to a more secluded road, where they could bypass other main tombs and go straight to the site of the dug tomb.
Although the distance will be longer, it is safer in Xu Lang's view.
After walking for about twenty minutes, the road ahead became smoother and Xu Lang's pace became faster.
Not long after, the nameless body stopped and said softly: "Here!"
Xu Lang's spirits lifted up. It is impossible to say that he doesn't have any emotional changes in his heart. This is the closest time he has completed the task.
Maybe it will be successful this time, and he will be able to survive the mission again, and this is his sixth mission!
Wuming took the lead in unloading the scarecrow behind him, then came to Xu Lang's side, and helped him place the scarecrow on the edge of the tomb.
Judging from Chen Huayu's words, in fact, there is nothing special about "back disease". In fact, it means carrying a scarecrow on his back, coming to the tomb and burying it.
It's just that this ritual has been passed down to the present, with the deliberate actions of the people in Taohua Village and the blessing of spiritual power, it has become more weird and cumbersome.
When the scarecrow behind Xu Lang was released, he didn't know if it was an illusion or what the situation was, but he felt the peeping feeling behind him suddenly loosened.
The whole person is very relaxed!
John and Gu Chunxia also looked at the tomb in front of them with joy, all four of them gathered together.
But then Gu Chunxia was a little surprised, "Where is Rong Chuan?"
A few people couldn't help but start to look around, but no one was seen.
At this time, the time has come to 1:30 in the afternoon, and half an hour has passed since the previously agreed time. It stands to reason that Rongchuan should have arrived long ago!
All the people present only had the same color as the road surface, as if they had already guessed.
In fact, when Xu Lang couldn't get in touch with Rongchuan, he already had some bad feelings.
Especially when digging the grave, he discovered that the Taohua Village people were hiding under the grave. He knew that it was impossible for Rong Chuan to swagger to bring Chen Wenxing or Chen Wenjin here.
Because once he comes here, he will be immediately discovered by the people of Taohua Village.
"You don't need to look for it. Even if Rong Chuan succeeds, he will definitely be discovered by the people of Taohua Village if he brings one of the Chen family siblings here, so there is no possibility for him to succeed."
At this point, Xu Lang even hoped that Rong Chuan would fail from the beginning, so as not to anger the people of Taohua Village and cause their actions to be destroyed.
Gu Chunxia was a little anxious, "But no one sheds blood, how do we finish our life?"
Wuming looked at Xu Lang's appearance without any worries. If he had anticipated this a long time ago, he should have said it early. Xu Lang only said this now, it means that he already has a way to deal with it.
And Xu Lang's subsequent words indeed confirmed his point of view.
"Our solution is to exchange blood for the four people present!"
When Xu Lang said this, everyone was shocked.
John looked at the tombstones with their names inscribed on the ground, and didn't quite understand, "Swap blood... can it work?"
Xu Lang was extremely confident. He had made many conjectures since the method of dripping blood was proposed by the nameless.
It would be better if the blood of the Chen family's sisters and brothers could be obtained, but if it didn't work, they would have exactly four people here, and they would be self-sufficient!
After all, neither Chen Huayu nor the original Uncle Chen said that it must be a foreigner!
The people in Taohua Village want outsiders to bleed, because the people inside them can no longer afford the price of bleeds!
Xu Lang told the crowd about his guess. After hearing this, several people looked at each other, and there was indeed some truth in it.
Wuming nodded, and said to everyone: "In this case, we don't need to wait for Rong Chuan, first bury the scarecrow."
There is no express requirement for this link, but Xu Lang and others still handle it with caution.
Xu Lang buried the scarecrow without a name, Xu Lang buried the scarecrow without a name, and John and Gu Chunxia were also buried interchangeably.
It didn't take long for everyone to complete the work at hand. This period of time was surprisingly smooth and nothing happened.
Xu Lang and others also all abide by the taboos Chen Shugong said, just in case.
Wuming stepped on the grave soil of the tomb under his feet, tidyed up the vicinity of the tomb, looked at the others, and it was all done.
So he came to Xu Lang's side, "Can we bleed?"
John and Gu Chunxia also looked at Xu Lang's expression nervously. After Xu Lang nodded, they were overjoyed and they took out a short knife to cut their fingers.
But at this moment, the sudden change occurred!
In the woods behind, there was a loud noise, and a large swarm of crows flew out suddenly, with raised eyeballs, vaguely flying in the direction of Xu Lang and the four.
John swears that he has never seen so many crows, almost covering the sky, covering most of the already dim sunlight, crushing the darkness, one by one, making a baby hissing sound of terror.
As if going crazy, he hit the tombstone directly!
One after another, scarlet blood was spilled on the tombstone.
It was like something on the tombstone, attracting them to seek death. The weak wooden sign, no matter where it could withstand the impact, began to crack and show signs of loosening.
Xu Lang couldn't see clearly, but he could feel everything like feathers and arrows in his ears, grazing frantically by his side, whistling at the grave planted beside him!
Wuming took out the dagger from his waist, blocking it in front of the tombstone, and from time to time he swung the knife to accurately chop the crow to the ground, "Don't let these beasts come near!"
John and Gu Chunxia were even more direct. They held the tombstone and used their bodies to resist. The backs were riddled with sores that had been pecked by crows, and a little bit of blood began to penetrate.
The two of them were also taking this, turning around, leaning their backs on the tombstone, and covering their fragile faces with their arms.
Xu Lang didn't know what to do. He couldn't see what was happening, only the whistling sound.
Rao Shi Wuming also seemed to be in a hurry. The large swarms of crows seemed to be desperate, and at this moment, Xu Lang's emptiness gave the crows a chance.
I saw a crow grabbing the tombstone engraved with an unknown name with its mouth, and tried to pull it up from the ground abruptly.
Xu Lang was blind, there was no way to stop it, and when Wuming saw it, it was too late. One after another crows found a breakthrough like a relay and began to attack Xu Lang with all their strength.
Xu Lang was careless when he was hit by a crow on his chest and fell on his back.
In the end, under Wuming's slightly impatient eyes, the crow finally uprooted the tombstone, swirling around and flying into the air.
The group of crows seemed to have a heart. Seeing a crow took away the tombstone, they stopped their crazy attacks and began to protect the crow and flew away.
Wuming gritted his teeth and looked at the tombstone belonging to Xu Lang behind him, his complexion condensed, and he stepped directly on the wooden top and slammed his tombstone into the grave!
Holding the knife in his back, he is going to chase the crow group, trying to take the tombstone back with a flying knife!
At this time Xu Lang finally realized the complexity of the situation. Hearing the sound of the nameless running away quickly, his heart was shaken, and an ominous premonition suddenly emerged.
He immediately yelled in the direction where Wuming left, "Wuming, come back!"
But when he finished saying this, there was a large sound of footsteps around him, Xu Lang's heart sank, and the people from Taohua Village were here!
Just when he was about to try to evacuate, he only felt a chill between his neck, and immediately came a cold knife wind, with a thin blade against his throat.
Xu Lang's complexion changed abruptly, and he didn't dare to move the slightest, because maybe his throat would be cut in the next second! (End of this chapter)
