"They ambush in front and have no defense behind them. I think their target is the people in the village." Molong Attai said.
The old cow was thoughtful.
After waiting for a while, he stood up and said, "Let's go to the cliff at the other end of the woods."
The village is located at the foot of the mountain. People in front block the way into the village, but there is a cliff from which you can see the entire village.
Lao Niu and Molong Atai retreated, and then walked silently through the woods.
"It's so weird." Along the way, Lao Niu looked around and said to Molong Atai.
"What's wrong?" Molong Ata asked.
"In the mountains and forests of the Central Plains, when night falls, not only monsters, but monsters are inevitable." Lao Niu said.
These monsters will sneak into the village after nightfall, get into sheep pens or pig nests, and carry away the large white pigs raised by people.
But today, Lao Niu and the others didn't see a single monster along the way.
"The intuition of these monsters is very keen. They must have sensed some danger." Lao Niu said.
"You mean, those people ambushing in front are experts?" Molong Ata became anxious, "Why are they ambushing this mountain village?"
Lao Niu couldn't explain why, "We can only wait and see what happens."
With that said, they came to the edge of the cliff. Lao Niu reminded Mrs. Molong to be careful, and then the two of them climbed to the edge of the cliff.
At this time, the sky was dark, but it was still early and it was not yet late at night, so there were still a few lights on in the village.
"Could it be those martial arts masters?" Atai asked.
Lao Niu shook his head, "Those martial artists don't have this ability, but I think those demon soldiers might."
"It's impossible for demon soldiers," said Atai, "If they want to kill people, why don't they wait until night? They can just kill them."
"Yes." Lao Niu nodded.
They clung to the cliff and looked toward the woods. It was quiet inside. Occasionally the wind would blow and the trees would move, but they couldn't make any sound.
This is very abnormal, because there are many birds and insects in the woods, and they always make some noise.
The air beyond the woods seemed to be frozen.
"It seems that the person who came here is not good." Lao Niu said.
"What should we do? Should we warn the people in the village?" Molong Attai asked.
Lao Niu shook his head. They were now on the cliff, and the road into the village was blocked again. The only way to warn them was to shout condescendingly.
But in that case, they themselves would be exposed.
"There's no rush." Old Niu, who couldn't think of any safe way, said, "We'll wait until the people in the woods take action."
Mrs. Lao Niu listens to everything. Lao Niu is experienced and cunning.
As the night progressed, the lights in the village went out one after another, and after a while, the dogs stopped barking.
The whole village fell silent and fell into sleep.
"If they want to take action, they will do it quickly." Lao Niu chewed a piece of grass. "If they do it while people are sleeping, the villagers will be caught off guard."
Time slipped by quietly, but there was no movement in the village.
Mrs. Molong kept looking in the direction of the woods, her eyes were sore.
"Why don't they take action?" Atai rubbed his eyes.
"Don't worry." Lao Niu was saying, suddenly he tilted his ears and signaled Mrs. Mo Long to be quiet.
After a while, he asked Atai, "Did you hear anything?"
"There's nothing." Mrs. Molong said, frowning slightly, "A dog is barking, no, there is a dog's whine."
Lao Niu nodded, "This is the barking of a dog when it is frightened. They have already taken action!"
Atai looked towards the entrance of the village and said, "No, there's no movement at all?"
There was no panic, no lights, no noise at all.
The fox demon entered the village and took away a chicken, which made more noise than this.
"This means that these people are either very powerful, or we can't see them." Lao Niu bit the gourd's mouth and tried to take a sip of wine, but there was not a drop in it.
He threw the wine gourd to the ground and said, "I'll give it a go!"
"I'll shout here later to arouse the villagers' ideas. You find a way to escape!" Lao Niu said.
"What about you?" Atta Molong asked.
"Don't worry, when the lights come on in the village, I will chase you immediately." Lao Niu tightened his belt, "Remember, run to that monster's territory."
There are naturally monsters in the mountains.
There is a bear demon nearby, who has killed countless people. However, this bear is lazy. As long as it is fed, it rarely comes down the mountain.
Of course, the bear demon doesn't mind being made a meal of the people or beasts that intrude on his territory.
"I understand." Atta Molong said, "You must run back."
"Don't worry!" Lao Niu said, "You are still nursing while I am walking on the mountain road. They will never catch me."
He told Molong Ah Tai to leave quickly.
After Atai's figure disappeared into the shadow of the trees, Lao Niu stood up and shouted to the village down the mountain: "Get up quickly, the monster has entered the village, everyone run away!"
"The monster has entered the village, everyone, run away." The old cow roared three times.
At this time, a gust of dark wind swept through the woods opposite, the leaves in the forest trembled, and the chirping of insects not far away also stopped.
Lao Niu knew that someone was chasing him.
He turned around and ran away in the other direction, shouting, "A monster has entered the village!"
From the corner of his eye, he saw lights on in the village on the cliff, and the village became noisy again, with many villagers carrying farm tools out of their homes.
Lao Niu was a little happy.
He stopped shouting and was about to concentrate on running. Suddenly, a gust of wind passed through his body, making the old cow freeze.
"This, this is..." Lao Niu's heart trembled.
Before he could react, another gust of wind passed through his body and knocked the old cow to the ground, making him feel like he had fallen into an ice cave.
"Ghost, ghost!" Lao Niu said in surprise.
He now knew why he and Atai could not see the people who broke into the village just now, because they could not see these people in the first place.
Lao Niu was pressed down on the bed by the ghost, unable to move.
"Hey, grandpa is here!" A Tai's voice came from somewhere in the forest.
Lao Niu knew that A Tai wanted to lure away the pursuers when he saw that he was not coming out.
However, these pursuers come and go without a trace. If you want to lure them away, you probably don't even know how close they are.
Lao Niu prayed that Mo Long A Tai could escape. At the same time, his mind was racing with thoughts, trying to figure out why there were ghost killing villages in the Central Plains.
However, this was not something he could figure out.
Soon, two skeletons rustled out of the forest ahead. They were heavy and heavy, holding knives in their hands.
When Lao Niu came just now, the reflection in the forest he saw was reflected by the knives in the hands of these skeleton soldiers.
The two ghosts captured the old cow and dragged him to the entrance of the village.
In a daze after being hit by the cold and soul, Lao Niu turned his head and saw that the village was now in a sea of fire.
A group of skeletons and invisible ghosts are killing people and setting fire to the village.
Lao Niu found it a bit ironic. In Zhonghuang, these people probably never dreamed that they would be killed by evil spirits transformed by humans.
