Chapter 97: Dwarf Spirit Festival (I)
As the sun sets, a bonfire begins to burn. The huge fire turns the sky red.
The musical pestle, like a boat paddle, hits the wooden board, the mouth harp with tassels flies lightly between the lips and teeth, and the rare double-tube nose flute produces melodious music... In the Yazi'ao Basin, hundreds of tribesmen are singing and dancing around the fire. Under the glow of the fire, the ethnic costumes are as gorgeous as the sunset, and the rise and fall of the crowd is like dancing sparks.
The night wind blew sparks, like bright red fireflies being lifted up by invisible giant hands and scattered in the wind. The night wind blew Taiya's hair, and she was fascinated by this scene. After a few seconds, she slowly spoke: "You said... in a few decades, will there still be a dwarf spirit festival?"
Yami's eyes seemed a little glazed over, as if she hadn't heard it, and after a minute she murmured, "Maybe not...but what about them?"
Outside the fire, there were about 20 teenagers, playing with their phones out of boredom, with no intention of joining the party at all.
The firelight and shadows created a generation gap between the two generations. Just as Taiya didn't understand why young people were interested in mobile phones, young people didn't understand why they had to stay here for generations. Why were the priests and village chiefs so uninterested in poverty alleviation and prosperity? Why were they so poor...but the anchors in the video were all glamorous.
Taiya sighed: "Life and death are determined by fate. This is the key to hell. If we don't pay attention, the Daai people will crawl out of the Styx and drag us down one by one."
Buda stood beside them. She was dressed very gorgeously today, and her jewelry jingled even when she raised her head or lowered her head. She said quietly, "The mountain god wakes up more and more often."
Taiya smiled bitterly: "There is a construction site nearby. It is a major project in the town. We can't make the decision on it."
She turned around, lifted the door curtain with her cane, and walked in slowly. Her voice floated in the wind: "No one can leave here... This is a place cursed by the gods. Everyone... Guard tonight. After tonight, they can only wait until next year. In a year, we have too many opportunities to drive them out of here."
…………………………………………
Swish! The night wind blows the trees like the tide. The villages of Yazi'ao are built on the mountain, arranged like terraces. When the lights are on at night, the whole village is layered and staggered. It's like the hidden village in the comics.
The village is backed by a branch of Cuiping Mountain. This branch is not high. The top of the village is only 13 or 14 meters away from the highest point of the mountain. Behind it is the vast Cuiping Mountain. At this moment, no one noticed that two figures were on the top of the mountain, observing their every move.
Jiang Xian lay on the grass, staring down, his mind quickly sketching the path to the village. Right next to him, Lin Ruoxue closed her eyes, wearing a device like a stethoscope, her eyebrows slightly wrinkled, listening carefully.
The sound of the wind, the sound of people, the sound of movement, all rang out. The two of them were like two stone sculptures, one hour... two hours... just after two and a half hours, Lin Ruoxue's eyes suddenly lit up, and she whispered, "Do it!"
Under the moonlight, two figures rushed out of the mountain top like horses and suddenly jumped down. Jiang Xian's eyes suddenly opened up, and he saw clearly that just five meters below them, there was a figure with pale hair, carrying a bucket of water by a well!
What an accurate location!
There was no time to admire Lin Ruoxue. The moment he saw the other party, Jiang Xian did not hesitate to draw his gun. At a distance of only a few meters, the loud wind instantly alerted the other party. The old woman suddenly raised her head and looked at this scene that seemed like a divine soldier descending from the sky in disbelief.
Time seemed to slow down at this moment, and her voice rose to her throat. At this moment, a slight "bang" sound was heard, as if someone threw a stone in the dark. The old woman's body swayed, but she never shouted, and her body softened and fell to the ground.
Click - Jiang Xian and Lin Ruoxue unbuckled their waists at the same time and jumped down. Lin Ruoxue took a step forward, turned the old woman's face, and looked at it in the moonlight: "It's Tai..."
Before Taiya finished saying the word "Ya", a huge force kicked her in the waist. She was kicked two meters away. She gritted her teeth and covered her waist to steady herself. She was shocked to see that the person who kicked her was Jiang Xian!
Right where she was standing, a group of thumb-sized scorpions had crawled out of the old woman's body like a black cloud. She hadn't noticed it just now. If she had walked two or three seconds later, her legs would have been covered with these little cuties!
"Be careful!" Jiang Xian whispered, "Anesthetics don't seem to work on them!"
Before he finished speaking, Taiya's body actually rose an inch from the ground! With a rustling sound, he actually did not move his whole body, but swam quickly on the ground like a snake!
At the same time, a cold light like a meteor chasing the moon, chasing Taiya - at the moment when Lin Ruoxue was kicked away, the long black hair had been grasped by Jiang Xian, who pulled hard, tightened and stretched the ribs of the umbrella, and the tip of the umbrella suddenly expanded by one foot. It had turned into a two-meter-long spear.
The tip of the spear touched the ground, and with this little force, Jiang Xian's body had already risen more than two meters. At the moment of jumping up, he exerted force with his arms, as if uprooting a weeping willow, and the spear rustled with the wind, smashing towards Taiya like splitting Mount Hua!
Lin Ruoxue panted slightly. She couldn't understand why Jiang Xian used smashing. Obviously, stabbing would be better. Although smashing has a large range, it can't cause fatal injuries to the opponent. But once the stabbing hits, Taiya will definitely lose his fighting ability.
Boom! ! With a loud noise, dust billowed to both sides like waves. Taiya screamed and put her hands in front of her head to block the bullet. And under her, countless black scorpions crawled out. And more were crushed into pulp.
Blood flowed from the corner of her mouth. She looked at Jiang Xian in shock and shouted angrily: "Who are you!!"
At this age... he beat her to the point of vomiting blood in one encounter? And the method he used was too clever - if it was a point attack like stabbing, it would be extremely difficult for the opponent to stab her under the protection of the scorpion group. But he changed the stabbing to smashing... Not only could she not avoid it, but by using the opponent's force to fight back, half of her own scorpion group were killed or injured.
In response to her, the pressure from the tip of the spear increased sharply. If just now it was like splitting Mount Hua with force, now it was like Mount Tai pressing down on one's head!
Young and strong people are better at fighting... Even the old Long Tiansheng could hardly defeat Jiang Xian, and the withered Taiya couldn't handle this kind of force. With a muffled groan, the gun pressed firmly against Taiya's shoulder, and the tip of the gun pierced the side of Taiya's head, three inches into the ground.
Then, Jiang Xian made a flying leap, using the tip of his spear to gain momentum and leaped up again. This time, he stepped directly on Taiya with both feet!
Taiya was so scared that he broke out in a sweat. They fought for a few seconds, and each move was fatal. Are the young people nowadays so scary? Isn't it said that the martial arts tradition has been cut off for a long time? How come besides those old monsters, there is another little monster?
"Help!" She screamed desperately. Being kicked in the abdomen, she was dead at her age. At the same time as his voice appeared, the doors and windows of the house a few meters away suddenly exploded! A dark cloud rushed out like a tsunami!
There were countless poisonous insects, and the buzzing sound was like a bomber! As soon as they appeared, they turned into a huge tornado and rolled towards Jiang Xian madly. In the dark clouds, Yamei's old body and clothes fluttered and jingled, like a devil from hell, with ten fingers stretched out, roaring shrilly: "Stop!!!"
Buda and An En were also beside her. At the same time as the sound was heard, An En screamed and a huge tumor bulged out of his neck. The skin nearby cracked like old tree bark. The next second, three green snakes flew across the air like a chain, biting Jiang Xian's neck, chest, and lower abdomen.
The tornado was only five meters away from Jiang Xian in the blink of an eye. An En, Buda, and Yamei were like ghosts chasing after their souls, but at this moment, a beam of fire, like a sharp arrow shot into the sun, instantly passed through the tornado, leaving a dazzling trail in the air.
It’s Lin Ruoxue.
She whistled softly, and the hem of her black windbreaker rose like petals. Under the windbreaker were countless sharp blades!
Swish! I don't know what material her windbreaker is made of, but as she swung it, the blades below flew out at the same time, making a sound like striking a match, and each flying knife instantly burned with blazing flames. In the dark night, in the dark flowers, dozens or even hundreds of brilliant flames were revealed. The flying knives did not burn for long, but the fire marks remained in the air, forming a criss-crossing fire network!
Ziz——! In midair, the poisonous insect tornado burst out with a sharp buzzing sound, and flew away at the same time. At the same time, Jiang Xian stepped on Taiya's stomach.
Puff! Taiya didn't even make a scream, but just bounced her limbs upwards like a frog, with her big blood-red eyes bulging. Her mouth opened to a terrifying arc, and the next second, countless black bugs swarmed out of her ears, mouth, and nostrils!
"Ah...Ah ...
"Taya!" "Taya!!" "You deserve to die!!" Three voices of shock and anger rang out at the same time. Yamei and An'en had disheveled hair and red eyes. The next second, they opened their mouths at the same time. Two black streams of light were faster than one could imagine. In the blink of an eye, they were not afraid of the fire net and instantly pounced on Jiang Xian.
It was a pitch-black spider with a blood-red pattern on its abdomen that looked like a human face. The other was a mosquito the size of a fist, covered in dark blue rings. A silver line connected their tails to the throats of Yamei and An.
This is the mother Gu.
All poisonous insects are hatched from them. They are also the most poisonous and strongest monsters in every grass witch's poisonous insect camp. Once bitten, there is no antidote except the grass witch's own antidote.
Jiang Xian could clearly see the strange patterns on the other person's body, the stench rushed towards him, and the cold air rushed straight to his head. Without thinking, he pulled out the Dragon Slash and stabbed his palm without hesitation. At the same time, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his neck. The black spider had bitten his aorta tightly!
"Die!!!" Ann screamed with eyes wide open, but the next second, a "bang" sound drowned out all their voices.
Two guns, pointed at three people.
They were two white custom-made pistols for women. Silver roses were outlined on the handles. Under the moonlight, they reflected the silver light of death.
The Glock 17 custom model has 17 rounds in each magazine, making it the pistol with the most bullets. It is also one of the top ten classic pistols.
Lin Ruoxue had taken off her windbreaker at some point, revealing a tight black leather jacket underneath. She held two silver guns in her hands, like a female warrior. The night wind blew her short hair. She did not hide her killing intent and shot An En in the right hand. With red eyes, she shouted, "Antidote!!"
"You're dreaming!!" Despite the intense pain, An En did not scream, but his voice was trembling with pain: "I want him... to be buried with Taiya!!"
