Chapter 172: The Eve of Mouyu Village
Hu Xiaoxia, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said this in a trembling voice.

Lan Tong asked: “What’s wrong?”

Hu Xiaoxia glanced behind her again and whispered, “They…they are very angry these days…it seems like they are going to take some action. You should leave quickly, or you will be implicated by them.”

Lan Tong couldn’t help but think of the female corpses that crawled out of the graves on the mountain.

“What are they going to do? Attack us? Or… the village?”

Hu Xiaoxia swallowed and said, “It should be… not you. I heard that they want to regain some position. I don’t know much about the details, but I feel that they will take action in the next two days before the bonfire meeting. You should leave quickly.”

Lan Tong noticed something.

“Lu Li, take a sense of what’s going on right now.”

After sensing it, Lu Li said in a slightly strange tone, “Eh? The pollution in the village seems to have been reduced a lot. The pollution on the mountain has a tendency to spread downwards and has already reached the edge of the village.

“The most polluted place in the village right now is not the village chief’s house, but… A-Qing’s house.”

“Isn’t the village chief living in Aqing’s house now?”

Lan Tong recalled that when the village chief’s house caught fire, several people went to Aqing’s house carrying something covered with black cloth.

Perhaps because the statue was moved, the source of pollution also moved with it.

The reduction in pollution in the village may also be related to the fire.

“I… I can’t say any more.” Hu Xiaoxia stood up, her teeth chattering. It was summer, but she was shivering from the cold. “You guys should leave quickly, leave quickly, it’s too late, it’s really too late.”

After she finished speaking, she covered her ears, screamed again, then turned and rushed into the mountains.

Lan Tong stood there with the lemon tea in her hand.

“Lu Li, do you think these two great monsters are going to attack us, or is there some other reason?”

“It should be an internal fight.”

Lu Li analyzed: “I guess, maybe the snake demon itself is not the original weirdness of this copy. Normally, the ranking of the big demon goes up, which means that the copy it is in is also rising, and the big demon itself is the product of the copy. The snake demon does not seem to be human, but non-human creatures cannot become weird in pollution, so there are only two possibilities.

“First, he is not the original monster in this copy, but he entered this copy in some way. Second, he is the monster in the copy, but he was a human in his life. I don’t know how he was revered as a god, so after becoming a great demon, he continued to live as a god.”

“So we have two options: prepare for war or avoid being dragged down by the internal fighting?”

“Correct.”

Lan Tong immediately returned to his residence and discussed the matter with Ji Yu.

Because there were only three people left living in the east side, those three also moved to the west side, and together they managed to get ten people together.

Ji Yu collected everyone’s talent status and the number of props that could be used and completed the final plan.

……

Day .

The agreement between Lu Li and the snake demon seemed to be forgotten. The snake demon never came to find Lu Li again, but Lu Li could sense it.

The snake demon’s ability to pollute is becoming weaker and weaker. On the contrary, the pollution of the female ghost on the mountain is becoming stronger and stronger.

After resting for a few days, Ji Yu and Lan Tong also joined the task of cleaning the school. Ten people began to clean the school buildings.

In the evening, Aqiang brought people to carry the things needed for the bonfire party.

The yard was made very spacious, with a vermilion table with peeling paint placed in the middle, on top of it was a statue covered with black cloth, and incense burners, candles and other things.

A lot of tables, chairs and benches were lined up on the side, a red carpet was laid in the middle, and a lot of flowers and plants were moved in.

The cleaning lasted until the afternoon of the seventh day, and the bonfire party was less than an hour away.

Ah Qing and his men moved a lot of firewood and piled it around the flagpole. The tables arranged at the entrance of the classroom were filled with various delicious fruits. The villagers had smiles on their faces, and seemed to be looking forward to the start of the bonfire party. Finally, it was six o’clock in the evening.

Everyone was extremely worried.

No one is sure whether they can leave the copy.

The village chief walked into the yard surrounded by villagers. After he spoke a few words in a pretentious manner, a gong sounded and several people in strange clothes began to dance around. There were also many people holding things and beating gongs and drums to the accompaniment of the music.

The lively atmosphere, combined with the eerie scene, makes one feel cold all over.

The chosen ones sat next to the villagers, each of them had a very bad look on their faces and were full of worries. Compared to the joy of the people around them, they were no different from seeing ghosts.

Lan Tong stood at the school gate, observing the snake demon statue and the mountain. It seemed that neither side had any intention of fighting at the moment.

Cheerful music accompanied the dance, and the villagers applauded and cheered.

The Chosen Ones were also forced to join in the applause.

After the dance, several pots of oil were poured on the firewood. Ah Qing lit a few matches and threw them in. The flames instantly spread, and in the blink of an eye the raging flames reached as high as the flagpole.

The heat wave hit them in the face, and everyone’s shadows were elongated by the firelight. The silent atmosphere didn’t feel like a bonfire party at all, but more like attending a funeral.

There was an inexplicable vibration on the table, and the black cloth was shaken off by the statue, revealing its true appearance with a human head and a snake body.

The eyes of the statue emitted an eerie green light in the firelight, which was creepy to look at.

It was also at this moment that the village chief stood up and said.

“Thank you all for coming to our village’s bonfire party, and thank you all for your help in making it go smoothly.”

After that, there was a round of applause.

The village chief’s old face was rendered somewhat eerie by the firelight, and his twisted smile seemed like a wolf staring at its prey.

“You may not know the story of Mouyu Village, so I’d like to take this opportunity to tell you about it. Our Mouyu Village is a village blessed by the ancient god Fuxi! No one in our village will get sick or die. We don’t need to interact with the outside world. We have the protection of the gods. We will live a safe and worry-free life without worries about food and drink!”

“The great god Fuxi has helped our village for thousands of years and is the benefactor of every villager in Mouyu Village!”

“Then let me proceed to the last step and offer a sacrifice to the great god Fuxi!”

The village chief shouted loudly, and the emotions of countless villagers around him were also aroused, and they all stood up and shouted.

“Offer a sacrifice to the great god Fuxi!”

“Offer a sacrifice to the great god Fuxi!”

“For the great god Fuxi!! Offer a sacrifice!!!”

The sound was deafening, carrying indescribable passion and excitement.

The village chief waved his hand happily, signaling the villagers to be quiet. His eyes swept over the pale Chosen Ones, and finally fell on Lan Tong at the door.

“That little girl.” He smiled amiably and waved his hand, saying, “The sacrifice chosen by the great god Fuxi this year is you. Otherwise, how do you think you have survived until now? Come here quickly. How many people dream of becoming the sacrifice of the great god Fuxi? This is the blessing you have cultivated for several lifetimes! Come here quickly!”

The moment these words fell, countless villagers looked towards Lan Tong excitedly with eyes like hungry wolves.

Even the chosen ones present were frightened and broke out in cold sweats.

They didn’t even know that Lan Tong was able to survive until now because she was chosen as a sacrifice!
The village chief urged, “Come here quickly, don’t waste this precious time.”

Under everyone’s expectant gaze, Lan Tong revealed a pale and sinister smile.

“You dare to choose me as your sacrifice? I will overturn the table and let you sacrifice me today!”

It will be finished tomorrow, thank you for your support
