Chapter 109 The first drop of blood(1/2)
Four or five men came at the same time and almost collided at the door. They brought bad news. Xiao Gaowu did not faint, but died. There was a small wound behind his ear. There was very little blood flowing out and it had solidified. If he had not searched carefully, there would be no way to discover it.
Everyone looked at Hu Guiyang sitting against the wall.
"Unlock it for me." Hu Guiyang didn't say anything else.
"Unlock." The old patriarch ordered.
"Dad, he..."
"Hu Guiyang did not hurt anyone, nor did he kill anyone, so untie him."
The two walked into the ancestral hall and reluctantly untied the rope for Hu Guiyang.
Hu Guiyang's arms were numb and rubbed for a while before getting up. The first thing he did was to reach into his arms, touch the receiver, and found that it was not damaged. He breathed a sigh of relief. Without this weapon, he was no match for the fake god.
"I can't guarantee anything." Hu Guiyang knew very well how difficult this matter was, "but I will do my best. We must share the same hatred from now on."
Everyone nodded hesitantly.
"Go and see Xiao Gaowu first."
Xiao Gaowu is a young man in his twenties, responsible for the guards of the periphery until he suddenly fell down without warning.
His parents and relatives were crying with the body in their arms. Hu Guiyang could not check it carefully, so he could only say to the old patriarch and others: "Let everyone stay as close as possible and light a few more fires around, the brighter the better."
The old patriarch immediately urged the villagers to take action.
Hu Guiyang walked around the open space, but had no more ideas in his mind, "You don't have to follow me, let me... walk for a while."
Everyone dispersed, and the whole courtyard became quiet, with only the sobs of the relatives of the deceased and the crackling sounds of several bonfires.
Hu Guiyang walked alone for a long time, but still couldn't figure out a solution. He could not find the fake god. Even if he found it, he might not be his opponent.
Someone blocked the road ahead, Hu Guiyang stopped, "Is there anything wrong?"
The fire flashed on the grass's injured face, making her eyes shine. It was a vigilant look like a beast. Only those who have lived in the mountains since childhood will have it. "The Third Master asked me to help you."
Hu Guiyang wanted to refuse, but changed his mind when he said something, "Okay, don't be too far away from me, I can't take care of you."
"You don't need to take care of you." Xiaocao said coldly, without the shyness of a woman outside the mountain, and was three points more proud than her sister Gao Hanying.
"Hey." Hu Guiyang took a few steps and said without looking back: "What weapon do you use?"
"Sometimes use a knife, sometimes a gun."
Gao Hanying's nickname is "Invincible in the Sharp Gun", so her sister should naturally be good at using guns.
"Take your spear over, and the further away the enemy tonight, the better."
"I'm taking it with me."
Hu Guiyang turned around in surprise and saw Xiaocao holding a chain gun in his hand. The tip of the gun rushed down, and the chain on the other end was wrapped around his waist. He hadn't noticed it just now.
Chain guns are difficult to learn and even more difficult to master. Few people use them. Hu Guiyang has seen them twice. They are all artists who run around the world. The guns are fancy but not realistic. This is the first time I saw someone treat it as a real weapon, and I couldn't help but laugh.
"What are you laughing at? You should be glad that I didn't use it just now."
The crying sounds in the distance have not stopped, and Hu Guiyang stopped laughing, "If you find an enemy, just shoot him directly, don't show mercy."
"I've seen it."
Hu Guiyang was shocked, "When? Where?"
"When Xiao Gaowu was attacked, I saw someone swaying and chased him, but I didn't catch him. After I came back, I told everyone that they didn't believe it and had to listen to you before they believed it."
"It's very uncomfortable not to be believed, right?"
Xiaocao didn't say anything, suddenly took a few steps and whispered: "How did you know that someone would commit an offense tonight?"
"I... the assailant told me in person."
"Do you know the perpetrator?"
"I have no idea."
"you do not know?"
"Isn't it strange? I also think it's strange that the perpetrator asked me to kill someone. If I don't do it, he will do it himself and will blame me later..."
"It turns out that it's all because of you."
Hu Guiyang saw a pair of vicious eyes.
The wound on the grass's face has not healed yet. It looks dirty, and it looks more like a small wild beast that has seen humans for the first time.
You should be careful when talking to such people, but Hu Guiyang is not right. "Yes, it's all because of me. The perpetrators don't care about you villagers at all. No matter how many lives there are, they are no different from cows and sheep in his eyes. You can kill me, maybe he will feel that it's meaningless to blame the whole village."
Xiaocao lowered her eyes, "If he is really the kind of person you said, he will continue to kill people no matter what."
A scream came from a distance.
Hu Guiyang hurriedly ran over in the sound. As soon as he took two steps, Xiaocao passed by. He accelerated his pace and chased him. The two of them secretly wanted to compete and ran faster and faster. Unfortunately, the distance was too short and the winner was not decided. The two arrived at the site of the accident almost at the same time.
Not far from the ancestral hall, another young villager was caught. This time, several people around him saw a flash of black shadows, and they were no longer suspicious and talked about it.
"Who is it?" a man asked angrily.
"Bastard, have the courage to stand up!" another man shouted.
Hu Guiyang leaned over to check, and the person who was hit was dead, and another small hole was stabbed behind his ear.
The deceased's family came over, and Hu Guiyang asked him to the side, and he became even more anxious, but he still couldn't figure out a solution.
"What should I do if Guanren Hu? This person is elusive and cannot be guarded against." Hu Guiyang became an "official person" again in the mouth of the old patriarch.
Hu Guiyang looked at it and the villagers were gathering here. The family of the second deceased was not crying so violently, but just surrounded the body, shaking back and forth, enduring the grief.
This can't continue like this anymore.
"Let everyone shrink tighter, keep the fire burning, the brighter the better."
"Okay." The old patriarch responded, still looking at Hu Guiyang expectantly.
"I am not aware of the enemy, and I can't just wait for him to make a move. I'll go find him. Be careful to protect yourself. No matter what you see or hear, don't move around. Do you understand?"
Everyone nodded, and no one doubted Hu Guiyang anymore.
"I'll go with you." Xiaocao volunteered.
Hu Guiyang hesitated for a moment, and Xiaocao said, "Someone must prove that you are not in the same group as the perpetrator."
"Xiaocao, how do you speak?" the old patriarch scolded.
Hu Guiyang felt it was necessary, "You come with me, everyone else... you are enough."
Hu Guiyang fought with the men in the village and felt that they were not as good as Xiaocao.
The two walked into the darkness, and Hu Guiyang quietly opened the receiver and put it on his right hand. He could make moves at any time, only one clear goal was left.
"How to find it?" Xiaocao asked in a low voice, holding the tip of the gun and the thin chain in the other hand, and was ready to make a move.
Hu Guiyang didn't know how to find someone, "I don't know how many of the perpetrators are. The enemy is in the dark, and we also hide it in the dark to see if we can meet it, at least they can not dare to make another move."
"Then you go with me."
"Um?"
"I know the way."
This is an irrefutable reason, so Hu Guiyang had to follow behind.
The grass quickly left the roads in the village and walked through the front and back of the houses and the woods and grass. Many times, there was no way ahead, but the grass could always get in and out.
Hu Guiyang followed behind, not daring to leave for half a step. At the same time, he was careful to be on the left and right and back, so as not to be sneak attacked.
I walked and stopped from time to time. After a long time, the grass lies beneath a bush, and I can see the open space where the villagers gather.
Hu Guiyang lay beside her and looked at the open space. The villagers there were silent and did nothing else, but the sadness and fear were clearly visible.
The young villagers were still guarding the periphery, holding bows, swords, sticks and other weapons in their hands, not knowing that these things are vulnerable to the enemy.
Hu Guiyang saw the assailant.
The perpetrator knew that someone was hiding in the dark, but he didn't care. He appeared on the roof of the ancestral hall and had already set his sights on this time.
Xiaocao was about to get up, but Hu Guiyang held it down. He said nothing, but just shook his head very slowly.
At this time, a reminder may be made that someone may be saved, but the person who commits the attacker will be lost.
The grass was obviously shocked, but still leaned down and did not move again.
In the firelight, a villager seemed to be bitten by a mosquito and raised his hand to slap it. As a result, he fell down and screamed around him. By the time someone noticed the roof, the shadow had disappeared.
Only two people in the distance saw the direction of the shadow retreating.
"Hu Guiyang, where are you?" Gao Xiaoliu shouted at the door of the ancestral hall, obviously thinking that Hu Guiyang had run away.
If escape could solve the crisis, Hu Guiyang ran away without waiting for darkness, but he knew it was useless. When he got lost in the mountains and couldn't tell the difference between the east, south, west and north, the fake god would still arrange a massacre and then put the charges on him more easily.
He cannot escape, nor can he act loyally. This is a competition of martial arts and patience. The more panicked he is, the more likely he falls into the trap.
Hu Guiyang touched Xiaocao and signaled that she could track down the assailant.
The grass set off, and Hu Guiyang then neither of them stood up, crawling almost against the ground. Although the speed was extremely slow, it could remain hidden.
