Starting from the folklore forum, making up town objects

Chapter 517 Chen Xin, were those fireworks you set off?

The atmosphere in Wangjiagou was somewhat strange. Although every household was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and the village was full of people, the previous liveliness was gone.

The banquet at the village square has been stopped, and the evening shows and movies have also been cancelled.

When the children from the neighboring Wangjia Village arrived, they were disappointed to find that they hadn't seen what they wanted to see and complained to their friends from Wangjiagou.

But the children of Wangjiagou were worried about having nowhere to talk, so they all told the story of the big tree that appeared on Zushan Mountain that day.

The children of Wangjia Village were stunned.

They didn't believe it at first, but so many children were saying it that they had no choice but to believe it.

The scene where they were taken back to the village in a sedan chair at the end was especially enviable to the children of Wangjia Village.

So they all ran towards Zushan Mountain, wanting to see the big tree.

As soon as they arrived at the entrance to Zushan, they were driven away by a group of adults from Wangjiagou.

The ancestral mountain of Wangjiagou is believed to be a place of great importance, so how could they allow children to go up the mountain and disturb the ancestors?

To prevent the neighboring Wangjia Village from taking advantage, men from Wangjiagou guarded all directions inside Zushan Mountain, and even their meals were delivered by the village.

Although the temperature had already dropped by this time, it couldn't dampen the enthusiasm of the people from Wangjiagou.

At the wall where the ancestral mountains of Wangjiagou and Wangjiacun meet, three men from Wangjiagou are sitting on the ground, chatting excitedly around some melon seeds, peanuts, wine, and other things placed on the ground in the middle.

"I told you that our Wangjiagou is the true descendant of our ancestors, right? Otherwise, why is there nothing on the ancestral mountain of the neighboring Wangjia Village, while our ancestral mountain is the only place where our ancestors have manifested their power?"

"Hehe, let's see if those brats from Wangjia Village will dare to bring up our ancestors again."

"To be honest, those people from Wangjia Village would probably try every means to merge their village into our Wangjiagou."

"Ha ha……"

The group burst into laughter.

The story of the ancestors appearing was initially terrifying, but it was quickly followed by joy.

Our ancestors have shown their power; this is an auspicious sign!

Perhaps Wangjiagou will take off in the future, and the villagers of Wangjiagou will naturally rise with it.

Just as the three were chatting enthusiastically, they didn't expect that a head would peek out from a wall a few dozen meters away from them.

The head looked around, and after spotting the three people, it landed.

Soon, from another blind spot, four or five people climbed over the wall.

"Be very careful. Once you find out which ancestor has manifested, come back immediately and wait on the other side of the wall, understand?"

"Do not worry."

The group responded in hushed tones, then split up and headed up the mountain.

The leader this time was Wang Yonggui from Wangjia Village.

Wangjia Village and Wangjiagou have a deep connection, so when the guardian of the ancestral mountain in Wangjia Village said that the ancestor of the ancestral mountain in Wangjiagou had appeared, the village elders and wealthy households of Wangjia Village held an emergency meeting.

If it is confirmed that the ancestor of Wangjiagou appeared on the ancestral mountain, then how can Wangjia Village have the face to claim to be the direct descendants of the ancestor in front of the people of Wangjiagou?
Even if they really are, their ancestors didn't appear!
Therefore, the sole purpose of this trip is to find out which ancestor has manifested their power.

Of course, they wouldn't dare to find it if it wasn't for destruction.

They wanted to know which one it was, so they immediately searched for people in Wangjia Village who were related to that ancestor, trying to establish some kind of connection.

If all else fails, it wouldn't be a big problem for Wangjia Village to secretly build an ancestor's tomb on the mountaintop.

Therefore, they sent Wang Yonggui and a few other strong young men.

Even if I get caught, I'll only get a beating at most, which I can withstand.

Wang Yonggui's primary goal was not the mountaintop. According to the mountain guardian, the ancestor did not manifest his power at the mountaintop, but rather more likely at the mountainside.

This gave the people of Wangjia Village some ideas.

Placing ancestors or their descendants on the mountainside is a great disrespect to them.

Since Wangjiagou doesn't want its ancestors to prosper, Wangjiacun is willing to do it for them!
Wouldn't that give us a legitimate reason to fight?

Therefore, Wang Yonggui and his team's goal this time was to find the graves of that ancestor and his descendants on the mountain.

When Wang Yonggui first came here, he thought there were guards on the mountain, but now it seems that the people of Wangjiagou did not send anyone up out of respect for their ancestors.

This made him feel much more at ease.

After searching for nearly an hour, Wang Yonggui suddenly spotted a grave.

A grave unlike any other.

Because the tombstone of that grave was actually a door!

That's really rare.

Immediately, Wang Yonggui walked over and stood in front of the door.

Staring directly at the door, Wang Yonggui suddenly felt a sense of insignificance, even though the door was only a little over two meters high.

"There's something strange about this door!"

This was Wang Yonggui's first reaction.

For some reason, an idea suddenly popped into Wang Yonggui's mind.

"If the ancestors of Wangjiagou are manifesting their spirits, it's not the ancestors themselves, but something else... like this door?"

"So, if Wangjia Village digs this door away, will their ancestors appear?"

Wang Yonggui's face lit up with excitement.

But he still needs to confirm whether this mountain has only one door!

It would be hilarious if a misunderstanding occurred.

Afterwards, Wang Yonggui went to other places.

When it was almost time, Wang Yonggui took a picture of the gate with his phone before running back the way he came.

After returning, the group discussed it and Wang Yonggui confirmed one thing.

On that mountain, there's only one door!

He immediately brought the news back to the village.

When the village elders and wealthy households heard Wang Yonggui's guess, some looked hesitant, while others were full of excitement.

"Isn't doing this a bit inappropriate?"

"It was said by an elderly man who was using a cane."

"What do you mean by 'appropriate'? Our Wangjia Village is the legitimate one. Do you want the old folks from Wangjiagou to use their seniority and status to suppress you in the future? I can't stand that!"

The old man with the cane opened his mouth, but after seeing the expressions of the others, he said nothing more.

The plan was quickly finalized.

Because the gate looked a bit too big, climbing over the wall wasn't very practical, so Wangjia Village decided to tear down the wall and move!
Demolishing the wall would definitely alert the people on duty nearby.

Therefore, Wangjia Village had to arrange for someone to subdue the person on duty. In one night, they could move the door back and rebuild the wall without anyone knowing!
The idea was bold, but after it was proposed, no one objected.

Whether it works or not depends on tonight!
What the people of Wangjia Village didn't expect was that their first time as bandits would go so smoothly!

Around midnight, ten people from Wangjia Village scaled the wall and entered the village, then subdued four people at two nearby guard posts.

To prevent them from seeing what was happening, they blindfolded and mouthed all four of them and even put noise-canceling headphones on them.

Therefore, they would have no way of knowing what Wangjia Village had done.

Even if traces are found on the wall the next day, without evidence, how could Wangjia Village admit it?

When all this was done, Wangjia Village immediately dispatched a team of twenty people, led by Wang Yonggui, to the location of the door.

When they arrived at the location and saw the door with its silver light flowing on the pillars, everyone was stunned.

Even Wang Yonggui was no exception.

During the day, this door doesn't react like this!

For a moment, the people of Wangjia Village hesitated.

If it really is the ancestor, will he appear to punish them? Seeing the hesitant looks on everyone's faces, Wang Yonggui naturally couldn't let it go so easily.

He was the one who caused this trouble, and he was the one who brought it up. If the ancestors really blame him, they can't blame him alone.

"Get up there, everyone! What are you standing there for? What did the village elders say? You came all this way in the middle of the night, are you just going to waste your time? Do you want your money back?"

His words finally swayed some people.

With the first, there is the second.

Soon, everyone gathered around the door.

"dig!"

At Wang Yonggui's command, he picked up a hoe first.

But when he struck with the hoe, his hand went numb from the impact.

He thought he had hit a rock with his hoe, but then everyone around him, just like him, was shaken and grimaced.

This startled some people, who immediately knelt on the ground and began to kowtow.

Others followed suit.

Wang Yonggui dared not continue, but just as he was about to kowtow, he suddenly saw light.

Red light.

He looked up at the night sky directly above.

The sky, which used to be clear of stars, is now covered with dark clouds.

Directly above them, a vortex shimmering with red light was slowly growing larger.

Wang Yonggui was stunned, and the others were dumbfounded.

After a moment of stunned silence, they forgot all about kowtowing and ran down the mountain shouting.

Those who didn't run were too scared to move.

Wang Yonggui was one of them.

Considering his situation, Wang Yonggui felt that even if he wanted to run away, he probably couldn't.

Just then, he saw something begin to fall from the red vortex.

Wang Yonggui thought he had misread it, but after rubbing his eyes, he realized he hadn't.

Heaven above, I am but a humble being!

Or rather, something in the shape of a human.

Then he saw those humanoid things move!

They either grew hair that was tens or hundreds of meters long, or they had seven or eight extra heads, or their heads suddenly grew bigger, and so on.

There's nothing Wang Yonggui can't imagine, nothing those humanoid creatures can't transform into.

Upon witnessing this scene, Wang Yonggui collapsed to the ground.

"The ancestor is angry! The ancestor is angry!"

Wang Yonggui couldn't think of any other reason besides his ancestors' anger.

Those who descended from the sky, perhaps they were sent by our ancestors to take him away?

Just as Wang Yonggui was crying and sniffling uncontrollably, something suddenly blocked his view from the side.

Turning my head, the door standing on the grave suddenly seemed to grow larger.

So large that the entire mountain turned into a grave mound, and the gate became the tombstone in front of the mountain!
Just then, the ghost head on the door moved.

Its eyes emitted a scarlet light, no less dazzling than the red vortex in the sky above.

Wang Yonggui then realized that the 'people' who fell from the sky were not coming for him, but for that door.

Then, Wang Yonggui saw the long whips shooting out from the doorposts. Dozens of whips bound the nearest figures, pulled them back, and threw them into the ghost head.

But when the whips flew into the air again, someone used their long hair to entangle them.

The other 'people' stepped over the long whip and continued to fall towards the gate below.

Just then, Wang Yonggui saw a phantom rooster appear on the door.

The rooster held its head high and chest out, seemingly not taking the ghosts in the sky seriously.

Then, Wang Yonggui heard a loud rooster crow.

The moment the rooster crowed, the 'people' falling from the sky burst into pale white flames.

Dozens of flaming 'shooting stars' appeared in the sky above the ancestral mountain of Wangjiagou.

Wang Yonggui suddenly felt that even if his life ended today, he would have no regrets.

Before the fire meteor even reached the gate, it was already completely burned to ashes. The hair wrapped in the long whip was also reduced to ashes in the flames. The owner of the hair was bound by the whip and thrown toward the gate.

This scene was shocking, but even more shocking was the sight of 'people' falling continuously from the sky.

Moreover, the number of those 'people' clearly increased over time.

Can this door withstand the force?

This was a question that involuntarily popped into Wang Yonggui's mind; he didn't know why he was standing on the side of the door.

Perhaps it was the 'people' who fell from the sky that made him feel panicked.

At the same time, Chu Xiu, who had just been having a pleasant conversation with Wang Xingping at Wang Xingping's house, had already arrived at the door with Wang Xingping.

Looking at the long whips and sword energy shooting out from the gate hundreds of meters high in the distance, as well as the occasional crowing of roosters, barking of dogs, and roar of tigers.

Then look at the 'people' falling from the sky.

Neither of them spoke.

This scene was beyond their comprehension.

"Wang Xingping, is this a method used by your underworld?"

Wang Xingping shook his head.

"I don't know, but if I'm not mistaken, those things falling from the sky are the unknown-level ghosts you mentioned, Chief."

Chu Xiu opened his mouth, wanting to deny it.

Even though those 'people' were hundreds or thousands of meters away from him, he could still sense their aura.

It's exactly the same as that thing in the central city.

"why?"

"Why are there so many ghosts like this? Why are these ghosts here?"

Wang Xingping couldn't answer Chu Xiu's question, but he knew who could.
