In fact, as long as Xiong Yan and Ye Zhuqiu want to leave here, there will be no way to trap them here. From the observations when they went out just now, almost everyone here can only use brute force, and some of them may be hunters, but for the two There is almost no threat to humans.

They didn't leave because they didn't dare to leave rashly. The village is surrounded by trees. In addition to what the man said just now, this place is in the mountains. If the two of them go out rashly, they may be lost in the mountains.

What's more, the two of them think this place is very weird. Since they can't leave, they should figure out what these people are doing.

When the sun had just risen in the morning, there was a loud noise outside the house, as if attending a party.

Ye Zhuqiu and Xiong Yan got up and went to the window of the house to look outside. They saw an open space outside the house full of people, most of them were middle-aged people, and a small number of young and old people. There are four or five five or six-year-old children.

Everyone's expression was very serious, and their eyes were very piously looking at the clay doll on the Gongtai in the middle of the open space. After a while, the three people from yesterday dragged a woman with disheveled hair towards the Gongtai. When the crowd was in the crowd, the crowd consciously moved out of the way, and there was a trace of relief on everyone's face.

The three of them escorted the woman with disheveled hair to the front of the tribute platform, pressed her to kneel in front of the tribute platform, and the surrounding crowd shouted loudly when they saw the woman kneeling before and after the tribute platform, and then knelt down one by one. on the ground, including the three men holding the woman.

Ye Zhuqiu looked at the scene in front of him suspiciously. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that it was a cult organization. He remembered that the man looked at the clay doll obsessively yesterday, and he was also crazy like that when he told them that they were protected by the mountain god.

The crowd knelt down and worshiped the clay doll in silence. A long time had passed, and everyone, including the children, knelt on the ground without moving and looked at the clay doll on the tribute platform devoutly.

It wasn't until the man who persuaded the two of them to stay here yesterday appeared that everyone turned their attention to the man, with an excited smile on his face.

Rong Zhuguo walked up to the tribute platform, bowed to the clay doll and said, "God of the mountain, bless you, it was us descendants who were ignorant and didn't make offerings to you, that's why you punished our people Today is the third month of our offering, we will continue the offering made by our ancestors, please continue to bless us."

After hearing what the man said, Xiong Yan probably knew what was going on with this group of people. "Everyone here thinks that the zombies are punishments from the mountain gods. It's really stupid to punish them for not confessing."

"What, what age is this, how can there still be such feudal thoughts as belief in God?" Ye Zhuqiu found it inconceivable. In his knowledge, it has been so many years since the founding of the country, how could there be people who still have such superstitious belief in God.

"In fact, there are people like this in many places, but I've never heard of such a large-scale one." Xiong Yan shook his head, how ignorant these people are to gather here to worship the gods and pray for the blessings of the gods.

The two now only have helplessness and sympathy for these people, but what happened next filled them with anger.

After saying those words, Rong Zhuguo raised his hand to look at his watch, and looked up for a while, and when he looked at it for the fifth time, Rong Zhuguo stood up straight and smiled at the people around him, "It's time." , and then turned to the three people kneeling on the ground and said, "Let's get started."

The three men stood up from the ground, one left, one right, and the other stood beside the woman. The woman did not raise her head but said in a very calm tone, "You will be punished. God will never protect you like this." kind of people".

"Shut up." The man standing in front of the woman raised his hand and gave her a slap. After realizing that the woman was silent, he picked up the incense placed next to the tribute table and lit it, while the two people next to him took out a plate one by one. They are placed on the left and right of Gongtai.

After the incident, one of the men turned around and left. The remaining two men knelt on the ground and kowtowed the clay doll three times. Just as they were about to get up, a man with injuries all over his body ran in from behind the crowd, "You guys You beasts, you will suffer retribution, you let my daughter go, let my daughter go"

"What do you think, press me back quickly, do you hear that?" Seeing the man running over, Rong Zhuguo yelled at the group of strong men who were chasing after him.

Several strong men stepped forward and grabbed the man, but the man kept struggling desperately, "Please let my daughter go, please, I will be a tribute to the mountain god, okay?"

"Li Qin, who do you think you are? The mountain god is not everyone's favorite. It's her honor to see your daughter." Respect, if he was not young enough to bring the next generation to the village, he would have thrown him down the mountain long ago.

"Fart, you ignorant people only know God all day long, and never think about who brought the disasters in those years. Now that there are zombies, you think it was brought by God. For your ignorance and stupidity , I have to use a fresh life to satisfy your so-called protection, stupid, stupid" Li Qin cursed loudly at the group of people, he regretted it, he really regretted it, he should not have given up his stable job in the city Back here with my daughter, this is not a paradise at all, this is hell.

"What do you know? You have been confused by those people outside now, and you don't even know the greatness of the mountain god. You guys quickly push him back." Rong Zhuguo pointed at Li Qin angrily and said, and then asked those big men to rush him away. Take away, do not affect them.

Several big men lifted Li Qin up without any effort, turned around and walked towards the back step by step. Li Qin struggled and kept staring at his daughter who was being pressed and kneeling on the ground, with tears gushing out of his eyes.

After Rong Zhuguo saw that Li Qin was pushed away by the big men, he nodded to the two standing beside the woman and asked them to continue.

The two of them glanced disdainfully at the direction Li Qin was leaving. What's so great about knowing how to read? In the end, it wasn't our brothers who had the final say. The man on the left pulled out a big knife from under the tribute table. The sharp blade It looks so cold under the refraction of the sun.

The man on the left nodded to the man on the right that he was ready, and the man on the right lifted the woman who was kneeling on the ground and pushed his head onto the tribute platform.

When the woman was put on the tribute platform, Ye Zhuqiu finally saw the woman's appearance clearly. The woman was the woman who broke into the courtyard that day, but before Ye Zhuqiu and Xiong Yan could say anything, he looked at When the girl arrived, the two men cut off her head alive.

Xiong Yan immediately covered Ye Zhuqiu's eyes, and Ye Zhuqiu said in disbelief, "Don't cover it, I can accept it, why do they do this?"

"In order to let the gods in their hearts bless them, look at them," Xiong Yan said looking at the very sad scene in front of him.

After the woman's head was cut off, the man put the head on the plate on the left side of the Gongtai, and the man who left on the right side put a pig's head on it.

The group of people outside didn't show any fear because the woman's head was cut off alive. On the contrary, there was a hint of excitement on their faces, as if they would be able to live without worries as long as they were enshrined to the mountain god.

The few children among them watched the scene in the middle with joy, as if it was a harmless thing.

Ye Zhuqiu looked at the picture in front of him and fell into deep thought. Did the end of the world change this group of people, or this group of people was just like this.
