The evil woman travels through the book and saves the sinners in the famine year
Chapter 100: Wild beasts are better at seeking benefits and avoiding harm than humans
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" The sound of gongs and drums resounded through the sky, and everyone looked towards the village entrance.
The tranquility of the village quietly spreads in the twilight of dusk, and the mottled sunset shines through the towering pine trees, casting a warm and soft glow.
The villagers gathered together, their faces filled with a mixture of anxiety and anticipation, and they talked in low voices.
"What's going on? Is the wild beast attacking again?" a woman asked in panic.
"No way. We haven't seen any wild animals attacking in the past year. Didn't they say that the wild animals all starved to death?"
As the women spoke, they ran towards the village entrance, where many villagers and elders had already gathered.
Some children were playing around the big tree at the entrance of the village, and they seemed unaffected.
Mo Lengzhou frowned and looked across the distant mountains. The outlines of the peaks became clearer and clearer, as if hiding some unknown threat.
Zuo Shiyi Niang actually brought people to attack the village personally, which made Mo Lengzhou very disappointed. That person had been the kindest to him since he was a child.
Just because he didn't marry her daughter as she wished, she betrayed her and wanted to bring outsiders to kill them?
What a nonsense! Do you really think he is still a three-year-old child?
Since he dared to defy the elders, he had enough confidence to deal with those who had different intentions.
The reason why he didn't take action was that the time had not yet come. Although he usually didn't like to talk, he knew very well whether the people around him were human or ghosts.
"The village chief is here. Is there an attack by wild beasts?" a thin young man asked stutteringly.
The young man finally got married last year, and recently learned that his wife was pregnant. He is no longer alone.
His voice trembled in the air, as if even the earth felt his fear.
Last year, there had been a long drought, and the elders could pick up women fleeing famine when they went out.
As long as the young men in their village are willing to marry, they can marry a woman.
Unlike the good times in the past, no one was willing to marry into the Mojia Village deep in the mountains and forests, and the women who were occasionally bought wanted to run away.
The young men in the village were so scared that they were unwilling to marry on their own initiative. Every time the elders brought back a woman, they would let them draw lots.
The women who fled famine had experienced the suffering of famine and never thought of escaping after coming to their village, so their relationship was relatively stable after he arranged a marriage with them.
However, due to the drought, the elders of the tribe did not dare to go out and pick up women because they could not afford to support them.
"It's just right that the wild beasts have arrived. Let's go hunt them and bring them back as a snack for everyone." Mo Lengzhou's voice interrupted the young man's thoughts.
His figure slowly approached, his back seemed particularly long in the setting sun, and his steps were steady.
There was a hint of solemnity on his face, and the villagers' eyes were unconsciously focused on him.
Mo Lengzhou narrowed his eyes slightly, and a bloodthirsty light flashed in his black eyes, as if foreshadowing the upcoming hunt.
The air around him froze instantly, time seemed to be stretched at that moment, and even the wind stopped flowing.
Suddenly, someone shouted, "The village chief is mighty!"
"The village chief is mighty!"
"The village chief is right. We have rice and potatoes now, but we lack meat. Let's go hunt wild animals now."
"Everyone, don't panic. We'll go out and hunt some wild animals and come back to give you a feast."
The teenagers seemed to already be envisioning the kill, the wildness of the beast as it ran, and the moment they would plunge the blade of their spear into the heart of their prey.
They set off a frenzy, fear and excitement intertwined, and their eyes conveyed an indescribable resonance.
As the crowd cheered excitedly, the village women also began to feel a lot of anticipation.
Mo Lengzhou held out his hands to signal for everyone to be quiet, "The hunting team is ready to follow me, and the guard team will stay at the village entrance."
As soon as he finished speaking, a dozen young men walked up to Mo Lengzhou with bows and swords in their hands.
They have been practicing martial arts and learning literature since childhood, and have competitions every year. Those with strong martial arts skills join the hunting team, those with second-highest skills join the guard team, and those with even higher skills are responsible for growing crops.
Their village rarely comes into contact with the outside world. They are mainly self-sufficient, growing their own crops and hunting in the mountains when they want to eat meat.
We only started raising wild boars in recent years, but unfortunately we encountered drought before we had even raised them for two years.
Because of the long drought, no grass grew and the wild boars could not be raised.
When everyone was ready, they suddenly heard a loud shout: "Wait for me, I want to go too."
Everyone stopped and looked back, and saw Gongxi Leshan running towards them, panting.
"Leshan, what's wrong? Is it your elder brother..." Before Mo Lengzhou could finish his question, he was interrupted by Gongxi Leshan, "My elder brother is fine."
He pleaded in a low voice, "Village Chief, I want to go hunting too. I advanced in the last competition."
Mo Lengzhou smiled and said, "I know you've joined the hunting team, but your elder brother needs you, so you should stay this time!"
"Village chief, I really want to go with you." Gong Xileshan said courageously.
Before Mo Lengzhou could speak, several elders objected, "Leshan, be obedient and stop making trouble!"
"Leshan, you stay and take care of your elder brother. I'll take you next time."
"Yes, Leshan, go back quickly!"
"Brother Leshan, don't worry, we will definitely take you there next time. Go back and take care of your brother."
Gongxi Leshan explained anxiously: "Sister Baoyue said she would help me take care of my elder brother..."
Elder Yan felt his daughter's chance had come. "Alright, then you can come with us. Be careful and remember to bring all your weapons!"
Seeing his determined expression, Mo Lengzhou hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement: "Then follow me."
"Thank you, village chief, thank you Uncle Yan, and thank you all brothers." After getting permission, Gong Xileshan happily expressed his gratitude.
Then he picked up the bow and arrow he had prepared and followed everyone towards the village entrance.
Looking at their gradually receding figures, Mo Yunfei's eyes turned slightly red, but he did not cry.
Instead, he clenched his fists and secretly swore in his heart: In two years, I will also join the hunting team.
Mo Lengzhou led everyone out of the village. He thought he would see Zuo Shiyi Niang and the others, but he didn't expect that there were actually many wild wolves chasing several big wild boars.
Wild beasts are better at seeking benefits and avoiding harm than humans. They were chased from all directions by the secret guards who had entered the village.
As Mo Lengzhou and his men gradually approached, the beasts' roars seemed to come from the abyss, shocking everyone.
Their bodies trembled slightly and their hair stood up, as if they felt the threat from the hunter.
The faces of the young people in Mojia Village were shining with excitement, and they held sharp weapons in their hands.
Their figures were as agile as shadows, and they quickly surrounded the wild wolves and boars.
Their eyes were full of fearlessness and determination, but there was also a hint of nervousness in their hearts.
The wild wolves and wild boars, both ferocious and wild, pounced on Mo Lengzhou and the others.
