Ten kilometers away from "Cai Zhuang", there is a place called "Shan Shengou".

Here at "Shan Shengou", the people of the financial village are holding a "boys and girls" sacrificial activity.

Zhang Zhengchu, the head of Caizhuang Village, knelt on the ground and prayed devoutly: "Mountain God, please bless the people of my Caizhuang, so that the weather will be smooth and the people will be safe! As long as the Mountain God protects us, the people of our Caizhuang will be willing to live forever for generations to come.

Come to worship you!"

The sound of a nighthawk came, adding a bit of eerieness to the night.

Some of the villagers in Caizhuang were looking around with flashlights and others holding torches. Their bodies were like sieving chaff, and they could not help but tremble with fear.

Zhang Zhengchu said to the two kneeling children beside him: "Xiao Hua, Shugen'er, you two have to be good and stay here with Grandpa Mountain God. Tomorrow morning, your father and mother will come to pick you up."

In the distance, two women finally broke down and cried.

"My child, my child!..."

The man next to her immediately yelled at the woman: "Keep your voice down, don't disturb the mountain god!"

A woman grabbed the man next to her by the collar and said, "You bastard, that's our child! What if something happens?"

"No...it won't happen! As soon as it gets light, we will come and pick up the child." The man's voice clearly lacked confidence when he spoke.

Zhang Zhengchu came back and lectured the two women: "Shut up, don't disturb the mountain god!"

Zhang Zhengchu's prestige in the "Caizhuang" was extremely high. He shouted so frightened that the two women immediately stopped crying.

"Let's go quickly, don't disturb the mountain god!" Zhang Zhengchu said to everyone.

The people in the financial village turned around one after another, panicked, and fled towards the outside of "Shanshengou".

The girl named "Little Flower" and the boy named "Shu Gen'er" ran away when they saw the adults, and the two children were so frightened that they howled loudly.

They were only ten years old, and the darkness in this "Shan Shen Gou" could scare someone to death. The two children chased for a while, but finally gave up. With their small bodies, how could they keep up with the pace of the adults.

The four brothers of the Ma family hid in the dark and witnessed the entire "sacrifice" process.

On a table, there were also fruits and a pig's head, with candles with glass covers lit on both sides.

Ma Er asked his eldest brother Ma Dali in a low voice: "Brother, are we going to go out and rescue those two children now?"

"Wait a minute!" Ma Dali comforted the three brothers. "Mr. Zhao asked us to see if anyone else is causing trouble. If not, if there are wild animals attacking the children, we will rescue them."

As soon as Ma Dali finished speaking, he heard bursts of wolf howls coming from the "Shan Shen Gou".

The four Ma family brothers frowned at the same time and looked around warily.

There are probably other large beasts in these mountains and old forests, let alone wild wolves.

After the two children, Xiao Hua and Shu Gen'er, chased for a while, they finally gave up and turned back because there was only light at the altar.

When people are facing darkness and helplessness, light is hope. And the two candles in the glass covers in front of them are their hope.

Xiaohua said to Shugen'er: "Brother Shugen'er, I'm so scared!"

The boy named Shu Gen'er hugged Little Flower Sister and said, "Don't be afraid, I will protect you!".

Another wolf howl came, and the two children hugged each other tightly in fear.

At this time, countless green lights suddenly lit up in the dark night.

These green lights look like floating will-o'-the-wisps from far to near.

Ma Dali shouted: "No, the wolves are coming! Go and save the child." After saying that, he jumped out first.

Immediately afterwards, the horses were straight, the horses were three, and the horses were strong. They all galloped out.

When the four of them reached the two children, the wolves had already rushed over.

Ma Dali held up the two children one by one and asked the three brothers to block the wolves.

Ma Erzhi, Ma Sanqi and Ma Sizhuang fought with the wolves in front of them. Seeing that Ma Dali had left safely, the three of them retreated at the same time in tacit agreement.

The wolves behind him were in hot pursuit.

Ma Si Zhuang ran at the end and was chased by two wolves. He kicked one of the wolves away with a roundhouse kick. The other wolf rushed towards him, but he ducked and avoided it.

Ma Er hit the wolf on the skull again. After killing the wolf, he greeted Ma Sizhuang and said, "Old Si, hurry up!"

The three brothers hurriedly chased Ma Dali.

After finally getting rid of the wolves, the four brothers of the Ma family were so exhausted that they were out of breath and bent over, gasping for air.

Ma Er asked Ma Dali straight away: "Brother, where are we going now?"

"Go back to Caizhuang first. If everything is fine at Caizhuang, go directly back to Guan County."

"What about these two children?"

"Take it first!"

Ma Erzhi saw the two children shaking their heads, thinking that the children were dead. Ma Dali told Ma Erzhi that he was afraid that if the children made any noise, others would find out and the children would faint.

So Ma Dali gave one of the children to Ma Sanqi and the other to Ma Sizhuang.

The four brothers took advantage of the darkness and hurried back to the "Caizhuang".

After arriving at the property, the four brothers walked around the village. Some people had dogs at home, and when they heard the noise, they started barking "bark woof".

Ma Dali was worried that the children would wake up, so he asked Ma Sanqi and Ma Sizhuang to wait for them at the entrance of the village. He took Ma Erli around each house, and finally stopped at Shen Zhuo's house.

At this time, it was already late at night. But the lights were still on in Shen Zhuo's house. Shen Zhuo was a big fool. What was he doing up so late? This aroused Ma Dali's curiosity.

When Ma Dali and Ma Er came to the back of Shen Zhuo's house, they heard a cold voice coming from the house.

"Shen Zhuo, do you know why I didn't kill you last time?" the man asked Shen Zhuo coldly.

Shen Zhuo asked the man with a smile: "Is there something good to eat? I tell you, you should leave quickly! You have killed people, many people have died."

Shen Zhuo was talking nonsense.

After hearing what Shen Zhuo said, the man couldn't help but frown. He grabbed Shen Zhuo by the collar and knocked him to the ground.

"Mad! Stop pretending to be crazy. We already know the secrets of your Shen family. Hand over your things."

Shen Zhuo picked up a piece of garbage from the ground and handed it to the man's hand, and said seriously: "Here you go!"

"Pa!..."

The man slapped Shen Zhuo on the face, knocking Shen Zhuo to the ground.

Shen Zhuo covered his sore cheek and said aggrievedly: "It's what you asked for, I gave it to you, and you still beat me!"

A strong man next to him asked the leader: "Boss, isn't this guy really crazy?"

"I don't know if I'm really crazy or fake."

"Brother, I have a way to test whether he is really crazy?"

"What can I do?"

The man who made the suggestion found a cup from the house. Then he peed into the cup. He handed it to Shen Zhuo and shouted to him: "Drink this!"

Shen Zhuo took the urine in the cup, smiled happily, and said, "Is it a drink?"

"Yes, feed." The man nodded.

Shen Zhuo raised the cup and drank all the urine in the cup without hesitation. After drinking, he asked the man: "Is there any more?"

Another man took the cup, took off his belt, and peed into the cup. Shen Zhuo also drank the urine in the cup.

Shen Zhuo burped, wiped the corners of his mouth, patted his belly with satisfaction and said, "I'm full, I'm full!"

"Brother, I think this guy is really crazy. He even drinks urine and says it tastes good."

The leading man nodded and said in a deep voice: "Other than this guy, the only other member of the Shen family in your province is called Shen Hai. We haven't found anyone from the Shen family in Jiangnan yet. Let's lock him up first and lure him away." That boy named Zhao took the bait."

Seeing this, Ma Dali made a gesture to Ma Er. Ma Er understood it and the two quietly climbed out of the courtyard wall at the same time.

As a result, Ma Er accidentally hit his foot on a pebble on the wall.

"There's someone!" The man in the room looked outside.

Several other people hurried out and looked around, only to find a mouse.

"Brother, it's a mouse!"
