Nemesis is Coming - C62
Da Gang immediately used his hand to block, but Luo Sha’s fists were too fast. Da Gang blocked the first fist strike, but he did not manage to block the second fist strike. Then, the third and fourth fist strike, followed by a storm-like fist strike landed on Da Gang’s face.
When Luo Sha gasped for breath, she stood up once again. Da Gang had already fainted. The entire audience was staring at her in a daze.
If it was the image of Da Gang that was like a pig head. His head now looked like a full moon, except there were a lot of craters on it.
At this time, all of Da Gang’s subordinates started to boil with excitement.
Da Gang slowly got up, covering his face that could no longer be seen, and said: Stop fighting, we’re all on the same side.
Da Gang started to pacify his subordinates, and I explained the situation to Luo Sha.
Luo Sha heaved a sigh of relief and asked: “What is the general’s next instruction?”
I said regretfully, “Enter the mountain, occupy the mountain and become king…”
In the evening, Da Gang’s village was decorated with lanterns and decorations, having a big feast. At the banquet of four to five hundred people, they lined up from the village square to the village entrance. There were many children playing around the table. There were also women and children who were chattering away about family matters.
Han Xifei sat in the main seat, while Luo Sha sat on her left and right sides. I sat beside Da Gang.
The others were scattered around as well. The people who had their guns pointed at them in the afternoon were all happily chatting and drinking wine.
This scene reminded me of the Lin Family Ridge back then. It had been so peaceful and harmonious back then.
I asked Da Gang curiously: Isn’t everything alright here? Why did you run out to rob the underworld?
Da Gang said in distress: In the past, we were only picking up weapons on the battlefield. However, a few days ago, a group of deserters passed by, and we ended up robbing them. However, he soon found out that he had picked it up faster and became addicted to it.
Hearing this, I became suspicious again. Just now, Da Gang’s little brother wanted us to keep our weapons as well, so I asked: Why do you need so many weapons for?
Da Gang looked at me admiringly and said, “Aiya!” Brother, you are a smart man, you asked the key in one sentence.
Da Gang continued to speak: Now that the world is so chaotic, who knows? Maybe one day the war will end here, and if we gather more weapons, we will be safe. The ones that are far away should be told to come closer. We still have a demon behind the mountain who often comes out to eat humans.
I silently listened, but Da Gang’s story had actually attracted Luo Sha over. I only heard that girl ask: There are still monsters in the mountains? Are you for real?
Da Gang saw Luo Sha coming over, and the story became even more interesting.
At that time, there was no war. Da Gang had been a soldier in the army and had been in the army camp before, so his strength was unlimited. His spear skills were also not bad, but in the army camp, it could be said that he had no discipline, and thus returned to his home in Stone Village.
That day, he happened to hear that Old Guo, who was at the east end of the village, had gone up the mountain to collect herbs. That day, he happened to hear that Old Guo, who was at the east end of the village, had gone up the mountain to gather herbs.
Seeing that the villagers had matters to attend to, Da Gang also went to help. Adding Da Gang, there were a total of twelve villagers who entered the mountain together. They all had rifles and machetes.
Legend has it that there were demons at the back of the mountain. Da Gang had already heard of this kind of thing since he was young. When he was naughty, his mother used to scare him about monsters in the mountains.
But Da Gang felt that the story was not true. Old Guo, who was at the east end of the village, must have gotten lost somewhere up the mountain.
They spent the whole day searching the mountain, but they didn’t find Mr. Guo even in the evening. They planned to return to the village first and look for it tomorrow.
At this moment, a weak voice came from the depths of the forest. “Help, help me!”
Everyone was very surprised when they heard that voice a few more times. Some people who were more familiar with Mr. Guo recognized it. It was Mr. Guo’s voice.
The twelve of them immediately headed towards the source of the sound.
However, no matter how far they walked, they would never be able to reach the place where the sound came from. The sound was always so weak, but it was always just right for people to hear. It was as if the person who shouted had always maintained a certain distance from them.
It was not until the sky had completely darkened that they were unable to hear any more shouts. Everyone was extremely astonished. Although Da Gang didn’t understand the situation, he had a nagging feeling that someone was bringing them into the trap. But Da Gang was not willing to withdraw like this.
Then one of them, a middle-aged man, asked, How far have we run?
An experienced hunter said, We’ve run at least five kilometers since we heard that sound.
Everyone looked back and only then did they realize that something was off. Even after running 10 kilometers, they were still unable to catch up to the cries for help.
Then a timid young man said shakily, Let’s go back. It’s too late now.
Da Gang said snappily: What kind of demons can this world have? Even if they did, would they be able to beat the guns in our hands?
Our oldest middle-aged man said, Da Gang, he’s right. It’s too late now, it’s too dangerous in the mountains. Even if there aren’t any monsters, if we step on any poisonous snakes, any jackals, wolves, tigers, or leopards will be enough for us to eat.
Da Gang retorted again: Just now I almost caught up to that voice, maybe that was Old Guo, are we really going to give up like that?
The middle-aged man said, You know that might be true. But if it was really Mr. Guo. We’ve chased them for five kilometers, can’t we catch them? If he could run so fast, why would he scream for help so weakly?
Only then did Da Gang calm down and say: It’s really weird.
After discussing for a while, everyone decided to return. Everyone felt their scalps go numb when they saw his strange actions. However, he suddenly ran into the depths of the forest, and before anyone could react, the middle-aged man was the first to shout: Stop him!
Everyone quickly chased after him, but the young man ran abnormally fast. No matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t catch up with Da Gang. In the end, it was rather embarrassing.
Da Gang wanted to turn around and say something to the crowd, but realizing that there were only four people left standing beside him, Da Gang thought that they had probably chased after him too quickly, and the others had not caught up.
Just as they were about to say that they would go back and reunite with the other few, they heard the youth in front who made their hair stand on ends. Da Gang and the other three immediately ran over, this time they had finally caught up to him, but their husbands had caused them to turn pale.
The young man had his throat pierced by a thick branch sticking out of a tree, and he was hanging from the tree. Blood was gushing from his throat.
The other three were so scared that they lost their courage, luckily they were stopped by Da Gang, otherwise they would have ran away.
The young man’s mouth emitted a weird sound, as if he wanted to say something, but Da Gang and the others were unable to hear him clearly. Da Gang took a few steps forward, hoping that the young man would tell him who the culprit was.
But the young man’s words caused Da Gang’s face to turn deathly pale, and he only heard him say: Here … In You… Behind him.
