After the proving ground came to the world

Chapter 65 Mingde Village 11
The village head knelt in front of the statue and prayed for blessings. He said nothing more than protecting the villagers and bless them from disasters.

Lu Ning was bored, so he began to observe everything around him.

Seeing Deng Pingping with tears on her face, she did not forget to stare at her fiercely. Seeing her looking over, Deng Pingping snorted and turned her head away.

Xu Zhengyu, who was kneeling beside her, smiled apologetically at Lu Ning, and then coaxed Deng Pingping to go in a low voice.

Lu Ning was really confused by Deng Pingping's hostility. After thinking about it, he couldn't think of where he had offended her. In the end, he could only attribute it to the natural disagreement between the two.

She turned her head away, not intending to look at Deng Pingping again.

Through the fire in the square, Lu Ning observed the kneeling villagers. She found that there were no children or women among the villagers present, not even the old grandmother whom she had seen before.

Logically speaking, in the hearts of the villagers, the Mountain God Festival is related to the fate of the entire village, and there is no reason to be absent on such an important day.

However, Lu Ning didn't have time to think too much.

Because the village head's blessing is over, they need to follow the villagers to send the sacrifices to the mountain temple.

The mountain temple was built on the mountain behind Mingde Village, which is the mountain where Lu Ning and Cheng Buyu lost their way.

Lu Ning was a little bit reluctant to go to the mountain. The mountain was very strange. It was bare and the terrain was not complicated, but she and Cheng Buyu still got lost.

The village chief led the people up the mountain. There were two groups of people lighting up the road with red lanterns. There were more than a dozen people in front of them carrying four or five large boxes. The offerings in the boxes were for the mountain god.

Lu Ning and his party were surrounded and walked forward. Unknowingly, they were surrounded by the villagers, and they were blocked by the villagers in front, back, left, and right.

If you still think it's okay with this posture, you're a fool.

Lu Ning and Cheng Cheng were walking side by side. On Lu Ning's right was a muscular man with strange makeup on his face. He was a member of the sacrificial dance just now.

No one spoke on the road, and the air was terribly quiet. Only then did Lu Ning realize that even the sound of the wind had disappeared, and they seemed to have entered a closed space, oppressed and breathless.

Lu Ning wanted to take out his mobile phone to see if there were any props in the mall, but as soon as he moved, he was spotted by the elder brother next to him. Lu Ning did not dare to provoke him, so he had to pretend that nothing had happened, put away the mobile phone, and followed the elder brother The team moves forward.

On the other side, in the village.

Since everyone went to the mountain temple, the village was dark and no one was seen.

Cheng Buyu got out of the house after the sacrificial team left.

She arrived at the village chief's house unimpeded all the way.

The village head's house was built at the head of the village, with three rooms in the main house and two side rooms on each side.

A large water tank was placed in the middle of the yard, but the water in it had long been smelly, and the tank was full of fallen leaves and flying insects.

Cheng Buyu crossed the courtyard and went straight to the main room.

As soon as you enter the door, you will see a dining room, which is very empty, with only a table and a few chairs.

Cheng Buyu walked to the west room, which was a kitchen, Cheng Buyu was startled as soon as he entered.

The kitchen is full of all kinds of vegetables and fruits, as well as countless meats, even seafood.

This appearance does not look like being in a famine predicament at all.

And judging from the way the village chief put these things on the surface, it is estimated that this is the case in this village.

Cheng Buyu wrote these down, and then went to the east room.

This room should be the place where the village head lived. There was a large kang near the window and a large table near the wall. In the past few days in the village, I did not find any horns used to transmit information in the village.

Even the village doesn't have any imprint of modern technology on the surface, it is as backward as the house they live in, a nostalgic style of the 70s and [-]s.
