The two men wearing grimace masks were standing about two or three meters away from me at the moment.
I walked back to the crowd calmly at first, and then slowly approached them under the cover of the crowd. At the same time, I raised my ears and listened carefully to their conversation.
Among them, a man wearing a black-faced ghost mask said: "Hey! The village chief said that the sacrifice is ready, let's go and bring the woman over!"
The man with the yellow-faced ghost mask replied: "Are we just the two of us? That woman is as strong as a monster. The last time I sent her underground, if I hadn't brought a shotgun, I almost would have died.
I didn’t let her escape.”
When I heard the words "He is as strong as a monster", I immediately thought of Lin Qianyi, and at the same time secretly clenched my fists, because judging from their conversation just now, Lin Qianyi was indeed here.
In the underground village, and most likely, near the altar where I am now!
At this time, the conversation between the two men continued.
"Don't worry. For today's sacrifice, the village chief has asked someone to give her Ecstasy in advance. Now that woman doesn't even have the strength to speak, let alone resist."
"That's good, but are you sure that today's sacrifice is that woman? Speaking of which, hasn't the sacrifice been performed once this month? Why is the village chief so anxious to perform the second sacrifice?"
"I heard that it was because the woman's companion had escaped, and the village chief was worried that the other party would retaliate, so he wanted us to get rid of the woman quickly. The village chief also said that this woman is a top quality, and Lord Water God will definitely like her very much, so
Even if this month's sacrifice has already been performed once, it will definitely give us rewards. By then, everyone's lifespan will be increased a lot."
"So that's it. Let's leave as soon as possible. Don't keep Lord Water God waiting."
Having said this, the two men left the area around the altar and walked away into the distance.
After eavesdropping on the conversation between the two of them, I was filled with doubts. Especially the word "Water God" gave me an ominous premonition. It seemed that this incident was not just a simple kidnapping.
But I saw that the two men were already drifting away, and I was afraid that I would lose them soon, so I had no choice but to stop thinking about it and walked out of the crowd, hanging far behind them.
After I took a few steps, I suddenly remembered something important.
By the way, there are people everywhere here right now. If I just follow the two men, it seems a little too conspicuous. I have no choice but to look at the direction they are going, and it turns out that the two men are heading towards
The place seemed to be where the village chief’s house was on the ground. I looked over there carefully and found a three-story stone house there. Unlike the above-ground village, the stone houses in this underground village were generally only one-story high.
Therefore, the three-story stone house is particularly conspicuous here.
I thought that the two people must have gone there, so I recalled the street layout of the village on the ground and took a detour through another road.
When I arrived at the three-story stone house, I happened to see the two men walking into the house. I wanted to follow them, but I saw two men wearing helmets standing on both sides of the entrance of the stone house.
Masked guards. One of the two guards was carrying a crossbow on his shoulder, and the other was holding a homemade shotgun that is common in the countryside. The two of them looked like they were not easy to mess with. I was not sure whether they could
To deal with others without alerting them, you can only choose to lurk aside and wait.
After a short wait, the two men walked out of the stone house again, but this time, they carried a woman who also wore a mask one after the other.
Although the woman wore a white-faced doll mask on her face, making it impossible to see her face clearly, judging from the coat she was wearing, there was no doubt that this woman was the Lin Qianyi I had been looking for!
At that moment, I could barely hold back my impulse and wanted to rush out immediately to rescue Lin Qianyi.
But fortunately, my inner reason still overcame my impulse. The current situation is that although I have a gun in my hand, the villagers also have a gun in their hands. In addition, we are outnumbered and the enemy is outnumbered. If I rush out so rashly,
Not to mention rescuing Lin Qianyi, I'm afraid even my stay here will be in vain.
And judging from Lin Qianyi's condition at this moment, she must have been drugged with some kind of drug as the two men just said, and she is unable to move at all. Otherwise, Lin Qianyi would not be like this.
He was carried out by the two men.
Therefore, I think that instead of taking risks now, it is better to wait for a while and take advantage of the two men to carry Qian Yi halfway to the altar, and then take action.
But at this moment, the situation suddenly changed. After the two men walked out of the stone house, they said to the two guards guarding the door: "We will take the people to the altar now. You two have to take care of the other people."
The sacrifice is promising."
After hearing this, a guard replied: "Brother, we also want to go to the sacrifice together."
The man in the black mask said: "How can that be done? Don't forget that this month is the day when you two are on duty."
The guard said: "But we have already missed one sacrifice this month. Who knew there would be another sacrifice this month? If we stay here, wouldn't we get less of the last reward than others?"
This is not fair!"
Another man with a yellow face mask said: "But if you leave, who will come to see those sacrifices?"
The guard replied: "What's there to worry about? Those people are locked in cells now, and nothing will happen even if no one is watching them."
The two masked men looked at each other and said, "Well, if you want to come, feel free to come. But if something happens, you two, don't blame the village chief."
"Okay! If anything happens, neither of us will shirk responsibility. Let's go, let's go to the altar!"
With that said, the two guards gave one of them a hand, and the four of them carried Lin Qianyi and quickly rushed back towards the altar.
Looking at the four people gradually going away, I was in a dilemma for a moment. I didn't know whether I should catch up with them or go to the three-story stone house to take a look first. Listening to the conversation of the four people just now, it seemed that they were here.
There are other people locked up in the stone house, and judging from the current situation, those people locked up in the stone house are very likely to be women who were kidnapped like Lin Qianyi. Maybe Xu
The husband's wife is also inside.
Rescuing those kidnapped people is the most important task for us to sneak into the village this time. However, I am worried that if we stay in the stone house for too long, something unexpected will happen to Lin Qianyi.
After weighing the pros and cons of the two options, I glanced at the four people who were gradually walking away, and made a choice in my mind. At this point, rather than taking great risks to save Lin Qianyi, I should investigate first.
We should go to the stone house. If there are really kidnapped people locked up inside, I can let them go first. In that case, even if Lin Qianyi and I both have accidents in the end, at least we can
Someone told the secrets of this village to the outside world.
So, I continued to wait in the shadows until the four people and Lin Qianyi completely disappeared from my sight, then I ran out of the darkness, sneakily came to the stone house, and pushed gently He opened the door and went in.
Just like outside, there were torches lit in the stone house, so it was not completely dark inside. I looked around and found that the layout of this stone house was completely different from that of Xiong Liu's room that I had entered before. There was only one straight room inside. The passage, and on both sides of the passage, are simple and shabby cells.
And in these cells, I was surprised to find almost a dozen young women in ragged clothes and unkempt hair!
Some of them were squatting, some were sitting, some were lying down, some were crowded in a pile, and some were curled up, all scattered in several cells on the first floor. But when they heard my words When there was movement, almost everyone raised their heads, opened their eyes wide, and looked at me with frightened expressions.
