Shaolin Bajue

Chapter 586 Worshiping the Mountain God

Wu Shiming said: "It is precisely because we are not from the imperial court that we came to inquire. The imperial court exerted high pressure on your Miao family, causing some people to resist. We sympathize. But this time, it is different from the past, but there are outsiders Instigation. We are afraid that the Miao people will be deceived by others, so we came here. Otherwise, why would we travel so far to meddle in this business. If there is any news, uncle, I hope you can tell us."

The reason why the two of them explained their intentions was that firstly, they could test the other party's reaction to this, and secondly, it was a way of showing their sincerity.If the Andu Cave Master had objections, they were not afraid of leaking it out. They were about to pass the news of their arrival to the Andu Cave Master.If you give them Yin, they will accompany you.However, the expectations of the two are not high. Judging from the performance of the An family brothers and sisters, the Andu Cave Master will never be a person who is stupid enough to be instructed by others.

After hearing what they said, the old man remained silent.

Meng Ji said in a deep voice: "Our cave master will never do such a thing. Now we can still live well, and there is no need to fight against the court."

Fang Jianming smiled and said: "We have seen what kind of person Andu Cave Master is from you, so we will speak out in the future."

At this time, Meng Ji's mother brought a plate of wine and dishes, one of which was full of chicken heads.

When Fang Jianming saw them, he knew that he was entertaining them with honor, and told Wu Shiming to eat quickly and eat more.Wu Shiming didn't understand these etiquettes, so he had to hold back his food.

He still likes to drink. Although the wine brewed by the Miao family does not suit his taste, he also drank a few big cups.From the wine of the Miao family, he actually drank a kind of wildness, which was much stronger than the wine from the Central Plains.

That night, the two of them rested at Meng Ji's house and had nothing to say all night.

The next day, when they got up and were washing their faces outside the door, they saw many Miao people running towards the square in the village, not knowing what happened.

Wu Shiming asked Meng Ji, "What happened? Why is it so lively?"

Meng Ji showed a gloomy look on his face, and said, "Today is a disaster day for our village, and it's our village's turn to offer food to the mountain god."

The two were surprised and looked at each other.What mountain god?What is there to mourn in offering food?How do you say it became a disaster day?

When I was about to ask again, Meng Ji said: "I'm gone, you two had better not go out today, so as not to cause misunderstandings among the tribe. Today is a very special day. Except for the women and children at home, all adults must go to worship the mountain god. .”

Fang Jianming said: "I know that your Miao family has many sacrificial activities, but I have never seen this kind of activity that the entire Miao village participated in collectively. What kind of mountain are you worshiping? Who is this god? You look how……"

Meng Ji's complexion changed, and he interrupted him hastily, saying: "Fang Shaoxia, don't say such things next time, if my clansmen find out, they will drive you out."

The two of them didn't take it seriously when they heard it, there's nothing to say about it.

Meng Ji left with the old man, and only Aunt was left at home.The aunt was sitting in the house mending clothes, when she saw two people coming in, she put down the waiter and wanted to serve them breakfast.

The two said that they can come by themselves and don't bother her.

After hastily eating breakfast, Wu Shiming couldn't wait to ask: "Auntie, what day is it today? Why is there so much noise outside?"

After hearing this, the aunt's face changed slightly, and she said, "You two little brothers, don't you know? I thought Meng Ji told you."

Fang Jianming smiled and said, "Brother Meng didn't tell us. He seemed to be afraid that we would know, so he didn't dare to tell us the truth."

The aunt said in surprise: "This child has always been hospitable, and I will never hide this kind of thing from you. Ah... I see, this child!"

After a pause, he said, "I heard from Meng Ji that you are all capable people and come from big places."

Fang Jianming said modestly: "I don't have much ability, I just know some martial arts."

The aunt nodded and said, "That's right, he didn't tell you because he was worried that you would fight against me if you heard about it."

The two were startled, and asked at the same time: "What's wrong?"

The aunt sighed, stopped what she was doing, and said: "We have a mountain here called Heiwu Mountain. This Heiwu Mountain was originally a sacred mountain for our people. The top of the mountain is covered with black mist, which is very strange. When I was young , I have seen golden light shining in the black mist on the top of the mountain from a distance, especially at night, it is even more dazzling.

However, ten years ago, a... monster came from nowhere. Since the monster came, it has occupied Heiwu Mountain, and it often comes down to eat people, making our Miao village panic.The Cave Master of Andu led people to hunt and kill it many times, but let it kill and hurt many people.

Later, someone suggested to enshrine it, choose a time every month, and give it some food. This monster is also strange. After knowing that there is food every month, it will not go down the mountain to harass it.All these years, it has been peaceful, but no one dares to approach the Black Mist Mountain, which has become a forbidden place for our clan. "

As soon as I said this, there was a "woo woo" sound outside, and the aunt said: "Listen, they have already set off to meet the master of Andu Cave. Andu Cave is mainly taking the people of the entire Miao village to worship monsters."

Meng Ji said that he was going to worship the "mountain god", but the aunt said that he was going to worship the "monster". It can be seen that the aunt does not support this kind of behavior and is quite disgusted.

Wu Shiming thought for a while, his face suddenly sank, and he said, "Auntie, tell me honestly, what kind of food did you give this monster?"

The aunt didn't expect him to be suspicious so soon, she felt guilty, and said in a low voice: "You listened, don't really go to destroy it."

The two were even more surprised.Why are they afraid of destroying themselves?
Fang Jianming said: "What kind of food is it? Auntie, tell me, we just don't mess around."

The aunt sighed, and said: "This monster has a very strange taste. It doesn't eat anything, it only eats girls of fifteen or sixteen years old."

The two were startled, then furious.

Wu Shiming said: "Are you really sending a 15-year-old girl to this monster?"

The aunt shed tears and said: "There is no way to do this. We ordinary people cannot drive away monsters. A girl of fifteen or sixteen years old is in her youth. Who would be willing to be a parent?" Let her be eaten by monsters? Therefore, some girls want to escape, for fear that one day bad luck will fall on their heads. However, no one can escape, either being captured by the tribe or beaten to death in the In the mountains, how pitiful."

After hearing this, the two were furious, stood up, and walked outside.

Wu Shiming said: "It's really unreasonable. We can't let them go on ignorantly. Once monsters become popular, they say that girls of fifteen or sixteen years old will hurt your entire clan."

The aunt was startled, and shouted: "You two little brothers, don't mess around, it's fine to kill the monster, I'm afraid the two of you are not its opponents, if you do any harm, wouldn't I send you to the ground?" Pushing in the fire pit, you..."

Fang Jianming turned around and comforted: "Aunt, don't worry, we will act carefully. Even if we can't kill the monster, we won't let it eat us."

The aunt said: "The Black Mist Mountain is to the southwest."

After hearing this, the two of them didn't expect that the aunt was much more enlightened than the others.At least, in her heart, she was eager to kill the monsters that endangered the people, unlike some people who would rather harm girls than resist.

When the two arrived at the square, they didn't see an adult, only a few Miao children playing in the square.

I saw a little girl with her hands behind her back, pretending to be tied up. Other children pushed her around the square, as if she was going to be escorted somewhere. The little girl's face was pale, and she felt a little scared, woo woo Crying, the other children laughed.

Then, it was replaced by another child.This kind of game makes them feel both amusing and scary.However, children are like this, but they are a little scared when they are looking for excitement.

In fact, the world is not like this.For example, someone wants to climb a high mountain, but is afraid of falling, and finally can't help but climb.

When the two met, they felt sad, and at the same time, it aroused their determination to kill the monster.

The two performed lightness kung fu to the southwest, as if flying over.After turning over several mountains, a mountain peak piercing the sky appeared in front of us in the distance.

There is black mist floating on the top of the mountain. It seems that this is the Black Mist Mountain.

After galloping for a while, the two noticed someone in front of them, so they went around to the left hillside, only to see hundreds of Miao soldiers with spears standing guard outside.

The two walked along the trail between the hillsides, concealed themselves, and quickly bypassed these Miao soldiers.

After a while, the two touched a small hill diagonally opposite the Black Mist Mountain. They lay down on the grass, looked down, and saw a sea of ​​people below, with countless people standing there.

There was a sound of reeds, only to hear someone proclaiming loudly: "The ceremony of worshiping the mountain god begins now."

The two of them took a closer look, and saw that the person who was talking was a man dressed in weird clothes. Looking at his clothes, he seemed to be a wizard. , but that the other party has something that makes them hate.

Don't look at the people standing below, but they are all in order. The first one is a tall old man. Behind him, there are more than ten Miao people standing in a row. The leader of the village, Mengji's Abba was impressively listed.

Under the leadership of the old man, everyone knelt down, lowered their heads, and almost fell to the ground.

At this time, I saw a group of Miao people in strange clothes running to the front stage, dancing a strange dance.The ear-piercing reeds sounded.

Fang Jianming has heard of Lusheng and watched Lusheng Dance, but he has never heard or seen such an extremely depressing Lusheng and dance, presumably it was specially arranged for monsters.

After a long time, after the dance was finished, the dancers on the stage shouted and ran down.

I only heard that ugly man like a wizard proclaiming: "Three prostrations!"

Under the leadership of the tall old man, everyone kowtowed three times to Heiwu Mountain.Then, six shirtless men carried three girls who were tied to a bamboo bed to the front desk. The three girls had cloth balls stuffed in their mouths, and their tears had dried up.

When the two saw each other, they wanted to go down to save people, but they knew that doing so would only cause serious conflicts with their clansmen.This is not the result they want.

After putting the girl on the stage, the ugly man declared: "Get up."

It took a long time for everyone to get up, accompanied by the sound of weird drums, so many people retreated from the foot of the Black Mist Mountain, leaving only three poor girls on the stage.

After the two made sure that there was no one below, they walked down the mountain.

Suddenly, the two of them noticed something, their figures flickered, and they hid behind a boulder. When they looked up, they saw a group of people running towards this side.

The two wondered in their hearts, who came here?What are you here for?
Gradually, this group of people approached, and the two of them took a closer look, and saw that there were two people they knew. The two walking in the front were An Wu and An Ni. Behind the two brothers and sisters, a group of Miao soldiers followed. .Everyone has knives, bows, and arrows, and their attire is also well-dressed.

A group of people came to the audience, and Wu Ni said angrily: "I'm so mad! Over the years, I don't know how many sisters have been eaten by this monster. Today we want to avenge our sisters."

An Wu looked around and said, "Sister, are we really going to do this?"

Annie stared and said, "Are you afraid of death?"

An Wu snorted and said, "You underestimate me too much, am I afraid of death?"

"Then what else is there to say?"

"I... I just remembered the strong man I met yesterday. If he is here, he will undoubtedly be a very good helper."

Annie's eyes lit up, but she said angrily, "It's all your fault, you insisted on dragging me away, but now it's okay, he became Meng Ji's guest, I'm really pissed off!"

An Wu said: "Aren't I afraid that he is sent by others to spy on our Miao Village? If I knew they were good people, I would have dragged him to see Abba long ago."

"Hmph, what's the use of saying this?"

"No, it's not too late. He's at Meng Ji's house now. Why don't we go..."

"Brother, you are too hopeless, don't we have the ability to kill monsters?"

Turning back to the Miao soldiers, he asked, "What are we here for?"

All the Miao soldiers shouted loudly: "Slay the monster!"

"Why kill it?"

"It ate our sister, it is our enemy, we shall flay it and drink its blood."

"Okay! Are you confident in defeating the monster?"

"Have!"

All the Miao soldiers' eyes shot out the light of death, as if they had seen themselves in a life-and-death struggle with the monster.

"Brother, hurry up and save someone."

An Wu took two Miao soldiers to the stage and rescued the three girls. After the three girls were rescued, they cried out of fear.

An Wu's expression changed, and he told them not to cry and to leave here quickly.The three girls didn't even have time to thank them, and ran away quickly.

Annie looked at the top of the mountain, with a pair of phoenix eyes full of confidence and determination, raised the Miao knife in her hand to the sky, and said coquettishly, "Let's go!" and headed for the top of the mountain first.

Seeing how courageous her younger sister was, Wu An didn't want to be left behind, so she went up the mountain second.All the Miao soldiers are brave men in the Miao village, how dare they lag behind and follow the two brothers and sisters up the mountain.
