Chapter 23 Fighting the Yellow Bull, an old acquaintance in Xipo
The moment the footsteps sounded from the door of the house, I saw Xiaojun's face twisted into a strange shape due to fear and nostalgia for life. I suddenly felt like one of the three heads of the statue on the shrine.
The expression on his face is so similar.
Because he was afraid of screaming, Xiaojun covered his mouth and leaned against the stove trembling, while I held the machete tightly, then slowly bent my waist, staring at the wooden door I closed, waiting for this
People came in through that door and then swung out their swords.
My whole body was shaking constantly, and I tried my best to adjust the simplest and most powerful posture.
Being able to knock out two people holding black stars without any defense, this person, at least in terms of fighting, is a very powerful character; and based on the strange appearance of Li Tangcheng and Xiaojun who were hanging upside down in the kitchen,
In this scene, it cannot be ruled out that he is still a guy with evil powers. Therefore, I had to be extremely alert to be on guard.
In order to prevent moisture, this wooden house has a hollow floor underground in the main room. Because it has been there for too long, it is not strong. When people walk on it, it will make a "squeaking" sound. In fact, my house is also like this, and so on.
I have listened to the sound for more than 20 years, but it has never been as creepy as this moment. The fear keeps rising from the bottom of my heart - especially when there is a corpse next to it, dripping down.
With residual blood dripping.
Li Tangcheng had been dead for some time, and the blood was almost gone. The remaining blood fell drop by drop with great effort.
The sudden footsteps were heavy and not restrained at all. Obviously, this person should be the owner of this place. He seemed to have come to the shrine, knelt down and worshiped, and then went to the cabinet next to the bed to take something.
Then I walked directly towards the kitchen. Is it about to happen? I held the knife tightly and felt that the handle was wet, as if it was moistened by the sweat on my palm.
I found that there were no stray paths. When I faced this mountain of pressure alone, I couldn't help but feel nervous.
The wooden door creaked open a little, and we stood at the door, waiting quietly for the door to open.
However, the man who pushed the door said "Hey", as if he had some doubts. Then the sound of wooden planks in the main room sounded, and he actually turned and walked towards the door without stopping. When I heard this voice, I felt like I had seen it before.
It was wandering around in my mind, but it didn't jump out. After the footsteps disappeared at the door of the wooden house for a while, I couldn't help but go to the small window next to the kitchen and look out.
I saw a tall figure walking towards the hillside to the west along the way I came just now.
This back view really feels very familiar to me.
However, I still couldn't recognize who it was. However, since he was walking into the forest, he would definitely encounter the monkey boy that I tied to the tree. No matter whether he and the monkey boy were friends or foes, they would definitely meet him.
I knew that I had arrived at the only clear pearl in the fog, and came to his lair. I had an intuition that this place might hold the biggest secret hidden in the entire Heizhugou.
I dare not stare at his back for a long time, because generally people like us have a very strong sixth sense, which is also the so-called "spiritual sense". Once someone stares at him for a long time, he will feel uneasy.
Those with stronger senses can even determine the direction immediately. So I withdrew my gaze and turned around. Next to me was a large wooden barrel, which was full of red and black internal organs. All kinds of organs were intact.
Peeling them off without damage, I think they should have come from Li Tangcheng's belly. I wonder what kind of pain their owner encountered during his lifetime?
Looking at Li Tangcheng's twisted and desperate face, I felt sad and didn't know what to say.
When people encounter such a situation, they always have an involuntary sense of involvement, as if they have had their heart and lungs ripped out, so I particularly disliked this shabby stove. I lowered my body and looked at the shabby stove.
Xiaojun, who was sitting with his back against the earthen stove, patted his face. Seeing that his eyes were dazed, he twitched hard. With a soft pop, Xiaojun finally got rid of the terrifying state of mind, and he was in a state of confusion.
He looked at me and said, Brother Lu, what should we do? Can we escape? It’s too scary!
My mind was a little confused, but I also knew that the most important thing at the moment was to leave this wooden house and not let the owner of this place find me.
I pulled him up and asked if he could leave.
Xiaojun said yes. He did not suffer any obvious trauma, but his waist was chained and his body was hung upside down, which caused poor blood circulation and numbness all over his body. In a life-or-death situation, he naturally had to grit his teeth and try his best to escape. He tried his best
He rubbed all parts of his body, and then slowly exited with me. We walked through the back door next to the kitchen, and after crossing a dark corridor, I saw a neat pile of food in the corner.
There was a pile of human heads, all of which were well made of salt. I didn’t have time to take a closer look, and I didn’t know how long they had been dead.
Many smooth headless human corpses were hung on the walls. Through the dim light, they had an oily texture like bacon.
Xiaojun was trembling with fear, and the sound of his teeth chattering could be heard from a distance. We opened the back door, and there was a green grassland on the opposite side. The breeze blew the breath of the mountain vegetation, and the strange smell inside was blown away.
It cleared up a bit, but on the grass diagonally opposite, there were three adult cattle with thick limbs and brown fur grazing with their heads down. When they saw us, they couldn't help but let out a "thud" sound.
Xiaojun couldn't stand the terrifying scene on the side corridor of the kitchen, so he was the first to rush out the door, but he almost fell down because the wooden threshold was too high.
I looked across the fields to the west hillside and found that the tall black shadow had disappeared into the forest. I quickly helped Xiaojun up and ran towards the dense forest in front of the house. As long as I crossed that
The large grassland has entered the forest, so we should be able to observe it from a distance, and it will be far away from danger, and we can advance and retreat.
This grassland was about three hundred meters long. It didn't take me more than a minute to run at full speed, but Xiaojun was a little reluctant. So when I ran a hundred meters, I found that Xiaojun was staggering and struggling to keep up. Now that I met
, naturally we wanted to go together. I turned around and was about to pull Xiaojun, but I heard Xiaojun nervously shouting to me: "Brother Lu, be careful..."
I was a little dazed and turned around to look to the side. I saw three oxen that had been grazing leisurely just now and seemed docile and harmless. They were galloping towards me.
In my hometown, the Miao area, because there are few fields in the mountains and farming is not easy for humans, cattle are the best and most loyal partners and friends of the villagers. They work together and go home together. Almost many villagers grew up with them when they were young.
They are all cowherd boys, and they have very deep feelings for this honest and kind-hearted animal. The legend that cow tears can distinguish yin and yang makes it even more mysterious. "Bull God Festival", "Honoring the Cow King Bodhisattva"
Festival", "Niu King Festival"... It is even associated with primitive religion and is closely related to our folk customs such as life and death, marriage and marriage.
I never thought I would be attacked by three crazy scalpers - was it because of the blood on my body?
I have never seen scalpers as vicious as the ones at this moment. Because in an instant, the soft parts of these scalpers' faces actually revealed hard horny skin like scales, and their eyes turned blood red.
, white steam evaporates from the nose.
The one closest to me is only six meters away.
Six meters away... This distance is simply a matter of the blink of an eye for a bull running at full speed.
At that moment, my long-term morning exercise and the intuition honed by wandering on the edge of life and death saved me. Almost at the last second, I ran two meters to the left, and then rushed in the other direction.
Go. A scalper passed me by, and with a "whoosh" sound, the sound was like the rushing train passing by; the second, the third, in just a few seconds, I was just a hair away from the three crazy scalpers.
I avoided it, and the last one even twitched my body with its tail like a whip.
"Snapped……"
A red mark immediately appeared on my left arm. Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, and these three extraordinary oxen were indeed more terrifying than the wolves in the forest before. Of course, I was hit by a tail whip
At the same time, the machete in his right hand also made a deep gash on the ox's hind leg - after all, humans are the masters of all spirits. Although we don't have claws and teeth, we do have the same sharp tools.
With this cut, the scalper immediately fell over and rolled several times along with its own momentum, causing grass juice to splash.
Xiaojun showed great endurance at this moment. He ran towards the end of the grass regardless of the situation. However, the hatred value of the three oxen was held back by me. Instead of pursuing them, they rushed towards me again.
.I have always had the consciousness of being a "gu grower". Those who rely on strength to make a living are always menial jobs. If you can find tricks, naturally you don't have to work too hard. So I clapped my hands on my chest and hidden in the locust wood sign.
Duoduo and the golden silkworm Gu in his body immediately appeared and flew towards the two ferocious oxen.
And my attention has been focused on the cow standing on the ground panting.
It shouldn't take much effort to deal with it, right?
I ran continuously, avoiding the two oxen that were rushing towards me, and then pounced on the ox that suddenly stood up. I felt the warm fur and its sweaty skin, which had...
There were a lot of scars and leech wounds. The head of the machete was not sharp, so I had to make cross cuts - two knives. I used two knives to make a bloody gash on the left and right sides of the ox's neck.
A large amount of blood spurted out, while the scalper struggled hard and screamed "Kou Mou Mou Mou". This sound moved me and made me feel soft.
At this moment, a man ran down from the forest to the west, and I happened to turn around and meet his eyes.
