Chapter 169: Stealing people in the mountains

As night falls, the earth is shrouded in darkness. The demons and monsters hidden during the day begin to move out to move in the darkness, especially the evil thoughts hidden in people's hearts begin to move.

Guo Dahai sent someone to inquire and the village chief would send Ding Ling to Lingshe Mountain tonight for a sacrificial activity.

The matter was urgent, so Guo Dahai and I hurriedly formulated a plan and deployed everyone's tasks. Then, with Guo Dahai, he and Guo Dahai, rushed to Lingshe Mountain quickly.

According to the terrain of Lingshe Mountain, we were ambushed on both sides of an intersection in the mountain. This was the only way for the village chief and his team. As soon as they arrived, we would rush over and rob Ding Ling.

I naturally knew that in this way, Guo Dahai made it clear that he had fought against the village chief. He made such sacrifices to help me, which was a righteous enough.

When we arrived at Lingshe Mountain, we scattered each other as we had been deployed, lying ambushed on both sides of the intersection. There were dense weeds growing there, taller than half a person, and it was difficult to find people hiding in the grass, let alone it was night now, so I guess the village chief and the others couldn't see it even more.

Everyone hid in their respective places and began to wait patiently for the village chief and their sacrificial team to appear.

The place where I lurked was just close to Guo Dahai, so I lowered my voice and said to him: "Mr. Guo, thank you. If it weren't for your help, even if I knew that the village chief would send Ding Ling here to sacrifice tonight, I wouldn't be able to save her."

Guo Dahai smiled indifferently after hearing this, and said, "Mr. Sun, what are you saying? Don't forget that you have helped me. Now I'm just giving you a reward. Why do you have to say such kind words?"

"Although that's the case," I said with gratitude, "But in this way, have you been openly confronted with the village chief? I'm worried that he will cause trouble for you everywhere in the future."

Guo Dahai smiled indifferently as soon as he heard this, "So what? I, Guo Dahai, is in the western part of Xiangxi, and I can't live with him. I only know that when my friend is in trouble, even if he is in trouble, he has to go over and help."

After hearing Guo Dahai's words, my heart was filled with blood and I even felt a little urge to cry. I thought I didn't have a friend in Xiangxi, but I didn't expect that such a good friend was actually by my side.

"Mr. Sun, don't worry," Guo Dahai said in a deep voice: "As long as I, Guo Dahai, are here, I will help you rescue Ding Ling and send you out of Xiangxi safely."

"Thank you, Mr. Guo." My lips trembled and I said something. Apart from saying thank you to Guo Dahai, I don't know what to say.

Guo Dahai nodded and said nothing. So we continued to lie behind the grass, waiting for the village chief and others to arrive.

Lingshe Mountain is the holy mountain of the Miao people. Because of the legend of Lingshe, it has added a lot of mysterious color to this ancient mountain. In addition, the word-of-mouth spread by the Miao people makes Lingshe Mountain mysterious, and all kinds of terrifying rumors emerge one after another, so that every Miao person believes that there is really a snake god on Lingshe Mountain.

So every night, no one dares to climb the spiritual snake easily, worried that the spiritual snake will appear and eat the offenders. So except for the village chief and the sacrificial team occasionally come here, it is usually quiet at night, which seems quiet and mysterious.

The wind whistles, sometimes blowing the weeds on the roadside, making huge and strange sounds, as if a giant snake with a bloody mouth really pops up in the grass.

Over time, Guo Dahai had one or two men who were relatively timid, so he couldn't stand the terrifying atmosphere here. He began to tremble and his hands and feet trembled.

Ada just happened to be lying next to them. Seeing that they were so unpromising, he kicked them angrily and scolded softly: "Dog Sun, I'm afraid of wool. I really saw snakes. Would you be scared to pee your pants? It's so embarrassing to step on the horse!"

After Ada kicked them, these men barely calmed down and stopped trembling so hard.

I looked around and saw that it was black and black, and I could only hear the strange sounds made by various animals. In such wilderness, it was quite scary. Moreover, they were Miao people and would not be ignorant of the legend of the snake god, so it was not difficult to understand that they were afraid of being like this.

In fact, if I were left alone in this kind of place, I would feel scared, but I was always thinking about how to rescue Ding Ling, so I even left my fear behind.

After waiting for about ten minutes, I suddenly heard a sound of gongs and drums coming from the bottom of the mountain. And listening to the sound, these people were slowly walking towards the mountain.

When I heard the sound of gongs and drums, my heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and a smile appeared on my face. I knew in my heart that these people should be the sacrificial team of the village chief.

So he turned around and whispered to Guo Dahai: "Mr. Guo, are they here?"

"Yes." Guo Dahai responded in a deep voice, his eyes suddenly became extremely determined, as if he was about to go to the battlefield.

So we turned our eyes to the intersection at the same time, with a nervous expression, waiting for the sacrificial team to come up the mountain.

The sound of gongs and drums is getting closer and closer, echoing between the mountains and fields, almost deafening. The noisy insects and beasts just now are also scared by the loud sound of gongs and drums, disappearing from where to hide.

After a while, the priest team finally appeared at the intersection. The person walking in the front was the village chief. He had a serious expression, and he seemed to be holding something like a staff in his hand. While walking, he was muttering something, as if he was opening the way for the people behind him.

The people who were following the village chief held the spirit banner in their hands, drifting in the wind, making a beeping sound.

The seven or eight big men in the middle lifted a wooden shelf hard. On the shelf, Ding Ling was tied to the four corners of the shelf with her limbs, crying and struggling, but her voice was useless at all, and was completely suppressed by the sound of these earth-shaking gongs and drums.

Those who were walking in the last walked along the way, beating drums and drums, and they should be playing music such as the Miao people who used soul-summoning sacrifices.

When I saw this scene, the strange dream scene came back to my mind in an instant, almost exactly the same as the scene I saw in front of me. I was slightly shocked. Could it be that everything that happened in this dream was really the truth as I expected?

Thinking of this, I became more and more anxious. I made up my mind that the village chief would not give Ding Ling to the snake god, and would save Ding Ling at all costs.

When Guo Dahai saw that the village chief had arrived with the sacrificial team, his face became calm and determined. He stared at the sacrificial team up the mountain with a torch, as if he was waiting for the best time to issue an order to act.

When I saw Guo Dahai not giving orders for a long time, I felt so anxious that I kept wiping my hands. But Guo Dahai seemed not in a hurry, his face was chaotic, and I couldn't tell what he was thinking.

Finally, when the last person in the sacrificial team had just walked past us, Guo Dahai suddenly shouted: "Brothers, let's get on!"

Hearing the order, Guo Dahai's men rushed forward. Afa Ada could no longer hold back and took the lead, rushed to the front of everyone, and the tiger rushed towards the sacrificial team like a slaughter.

I was determined to save Ding Ling, so I was naturally not willing to fall behind. I jumped out of the grass and stared at Ding Ling, so I rushed towards the middle of the sacrificial team.

Because the sacrificial team had just passed, they never expected that a group of people would suddenly rush out of the grass on the side of the road, so these people were panicked and threw the gongs and drums in their hands and fled in all directions.

The sound of gongs and drums behind suddenly stopped and there was a sensation. Of course, there would be no unaware of anything in front of them, so the village chief and others immediately stopped to see what happened later.

At this time, I had overthrown a few people, walked to Ding Ling, and shouted to Ding Ling: "Ding Ling, don't be afraid, I'll save you!"

Ding Ling also heard the sound of gongs and drums suddenly disappeared. She was at a loss and didn't know what was going on. When she suddenly heard my voice, she realized that it was me who came to save her.

Ding Ling's face showed an excited expression, as if she was about to shed tears, and she choked and said, "Sun Heng, why are you so stupid..."

I was about to continue to step forward and rescue Ding Ling from those people. At this time, the people in front of the sacrificial team had already turned around and came to support them. These people were as strong as a cow. I was stopped by them and became more and more distant from Ding Ling.

Although Guo Dahai's subordinates were extremely brave, the village chief's people were not for nothing. They were even more tall and the number was about twice as many as mine. So although everyone tried their best, they still couldn't snatch Ding Ling from them.

Moreover, after the village chief discovered our purpose, he quickly adjusted his strategy and asked the people who carried Ding Ling to leave first, while the remaining people were used to fight against us. In this way, we were even more unable to attack, let alone get close to Ding Ling.

Guo Dahai and I were fighting hard with the priest team members when we suddenly heard the village chief's voice ringing in front of us: "Sun Heng, it turns out it's you!"

I looked up and saw the village chief standing behind the priest team and smiling coldly at me. I felt angry and shouted to him: "You beast, let Ding Ling go quickly, otherwise I will never end with you."

When the village chief heard this, he said angrily: "Sun Heng, I kindly let you go, but you came to ruin my good things. If I had known this, I would have let you stay in prison for a few more days."

At this time, I didn't care about the truth or not, and opened my mouth and said, "Don't think I don't know about your dirty things. You offered Ding Ling to the Snake God just to be firmly in the position of village chief!"

When the village chief heard this, his face suddenly changed and he said in a cold voice: "Sun Heng, you... who have you heard? Don't talk nonsense here!"
