Chapter 26
When they arrived at the village, Dana, Lao Sha and others saw a large group of people standing at the entrance of the village. They seemed to know that they were coming, and deliberately waited for them.
The Dana asked the second son to throw the dwarf to the ground and said to the villagers: "We are here to ask, what were you doing in the forest last night, and where did the two children go?"
These villagers all looked at Dana idly, and Lao Sha became alert. He saw the villagers slowly surrounding him, Dana and others, and several people were slowly moving towards the entrance of the village.
Lao Sha wanted to remind Dana that he was a member of the village last night, and now he is hard to do it now, so he will definitely not be able to get it. However, Dana pointed at the villagers without giving Lao Sha a chance to speak, and said, "You were pretending to be a ghost in the forest last night. I saw it, don't refuse to admit it in front of me."
It would be fine if Dana didn't say this. After Dana said it, twenty or thirty villagers surrounded Dana, Laosha, Heixiao, and Erzi quietly.
"It's broad daylight, do you still want to use force?" The Dana said angrily.
Lao Sha was so anxious that you were a big shot. You really had a lot of skills, but what should I do with two security guards who didn’t know anything? You can’t get out by yourself and leave us here. And it’s obvious that these villagers’ faces were dull, but their eyes were full of cold light. This was definitely not a good thing.
Just when Dana was confronting the villagers and the atmosphere was tense, a villager in his forties walked into the crowd and slowly put down the hoe in his hand. It looked like he was going to do farm work one morning, and people passing by here to watch the fun, crowded into the crowd.
But Lao Sha secretly complained in his heart. When this person walked in, the villagers subconsciously avoided both sides. It proved that this person had a great identity in the village. It would be fine if he was really an ordinary village. Based on their actions last night, Lao Sha could almost confirm in his heart that it was obvious that they were not ordinary farmers.
The forty-year-old man walked up to Dana and stared at Dana tightly.
The Dana was so guilty that he asked the man, "Who are you, are you the village chief?"
The man shook his head.
Hei Xiao whispered: "There is no village chief and village party secretary in this village, and there has never been a person in charge."
Lao Sha thought to himself, if there is no village chief, what else can it mean? That is, this village is a clan system and does not recognize the village chief arranged by the government at all. The one who has the final say is the clan leader in the village.
The man walked to Dana and said softly: "The affairs in our village have nothing to do with you, you can go back."
Before Dana could answer, Lao Sha immediately said, "Okay, we'll leave right away."
"Before leaving," said the man, "you have to forget something."
Lao Sha immediately understood what the man meant and hurriedly said, "We won't mention what happened last night."
Dana said, "How can you forget what you see just by saying it's okay?"
Lao Sha wanted to block Dana's mouth and said in his heart, you idiot, just agree to it for the time being. What can you do if you can get out of here and deal with it?"
But it was impossible to have this opportunity. The man nodded to the villagers beside him, and several villagers ran away. After a while, four villagers carried something with bars and approached. When Lao Sha saw that it was indeed a stone, the stone dared to destiny. Lao Sha thought to himself that the stone they did the ritual last night was not underground, but followed the people. When the villagers arrived, the stone would go wherever they went.
"I can bear you!" The master shouted: "Aren't you the one who danced a great man last night? Where is your mask?"
The man's face turned gloomy after hearing this.
Lao Sha was thinking in his heart, what method would these villagers use to make themselves, Dana, and Hei Xiao, and Erzi forget what happened last night. This Shi Gan said was not a fucking evil-suppressing thing, but a thing that made people mentally confused.
Dana didn't realize that things had reached an uncontrollable point, and even Hei Xiao and Erzi knew that things were not good. But Dana still said to the man: "Why are you moving a stone? Do you want to do a ritual in a sensible way?"
The big man still had to continue talking, but couldn't speak.
The man suddenly put on a mask on his face, which was so fast that it was like a Sichuan opera face change. This mask was the mask that the group of villagers worshiped in the open space last night: two bent corners and a pair of fangs.
This mask looks even more weird in the morning sunshine than in the dark.
"Stone, stone." Hei Xiao and Erzi pointed at the Shi Gandang.
When Lao Sha saw Shi Gandang, a white mist was spreading out. Did the mist and miasma that last night came out of Shi Gandang? Lao Sha and Dana both inhaled the white mist and their heads were suddenly drowsy. Lao Sha knew something was wrong in his heart and quickly stopped breathing. Seeing Hei Xiao and Erzi, he was confused and looked at him at a loss. Dana did not react at all and shouted to the man: "What trick are you doing?"
Hei Xiao and Erzi were already standing blankly. Two villagers came up and raised them up, but they didn't know where to send them. However, the villagers who came to hold Laosha were squatted down by Laosha's continuous elbows.
But Lao Sha found that his head was getting more and more confused and there was no more power to resist. He vaguely saw Dana rushing towards the man and was about to take action.
But the villagers rushed up and squeezed Dana hard in the middle. Dana knocked down the people continuously, then walked to the man and punched him quickly. The man's body flew back a few meters, and the mask also fell off. Dana walked to the man's side and found that after the man's mask fell off, his face was not the same as before. Instead, he wrinkled and dry skin, which was tightly pressed against his cheekbones. This was a very old face, with dry lips shrunk and unable to cover his teeth, and his teeth were brown and yellow, sparse, with only two nostrils on his nose, and his eyes were dry, without eyelids and eyebrows.
It turned out that before this man wore a mask, he had a fake face. The lord was frightened by his appearance. Then he suddenly heard a "bang" sound in his ears, and his mind was immediately shocked. This was the villagers next to him pounding violently with a cowhide drum.
Dana was shaken by the sound of drums, and his body could not accumulate strength. The man who showed his true appearance slowly got up, slapped the dust on his body, and slowly walked towards Shi Gandang. When he turned to face Dana, he put on another mask on his face, the green-faced and fanged mask. Dana then realized that this person was much more powerful than the dwarf in the woods.
