"What does that mean?"

The man looked at the people enjoying the sun outside, and said, "The barefoot doctor said that what he sowed was not herbs, but that he had let the spirit of the little golden crow possess a medicinal herb, and then crushed it, fell into the well, and let everyone drink it, so that all the power of the little golden crow could be dispersed, so that the little golden crow could not gather and could not do evil." ”

Ye Cheng didn't speak, this way, it sounded a little weird, this was not pharmacology, it was more like a witch Gu.

The man continued: "The barefoot doctor said that this method has a drawback, but for the sake of the world to punish the evil and promote the good, he has no choice, and he even drank the well water in front of the whole village. ”

"And what's the drawback?"

"The barefoot doctor said that the little golden crow melted into our bodies, and there was no need to worry that one day, he would get angry and make anyone in our village die suddenly. But, correspondingly, each of us has to take on the responsibility of avoiding the sun for half an hour every day at noon, otherwise we will still be burned to death. ”

Ye Cheng was shocked in his heart and asked, "Isn't this still the same as before?"

The man shook his head and said, "The barefoot doctor said that this is the best solution, either let it go and someone will die quietly every moment, or it is to unite as one, avoid the sun for a period of time every day, hide in the dark for a while, and have no worries about the world." ”

Ye Cheng's eyebrows furrowed, and he said, "In other words, this barefoot doctor, like you, needs to hide from the sun, right?"

The man nodded and said, "That's right, he also lived with us for the next few years, which makes us even more convinced that it is indeed as he said, that this crisis has been lifted in this way, except that there is a period of time every day to hide from the sun." ”

Ye Cheng suddenly remembered the girl who was sacrificed, and asked, "How is the girl who was defiled by him?"

The man said: "Because he has been emphasizing that it is the little golden crow that has defiled this girl, so with the disappearance of the little golden crow, this girl also needs to be guarded at all times, lest she die because she wants to follow the little golden crow and be exposed to the sun." ”

"Guarded, where?" Ye Cheng asked.

The man pointed to the forest not far away, and said, "There is the back of the mountain, where the barefoot doctor and the strong laborers of our village have made a house, and let the woman live there temporarily, and be watched by the barefoot doctor every day." ”

Ye Cheng felt that he should take a look at how that woman was.

Ye Cheng asked, "Is this your story?"

The man nodded and said, "No, we are starting to be scared again now, because now except for noon, when we need to hide for half an hour, there have also been people destroying the phenomenon of ** at the rest of the time, some in the morning and some in the afternoon, but not at night." ”

"What's going on?" Ye Cheng asked, thinking that it might be a mistake for the barefoot doctor to play with his work.

"Hey, later the barefoot doctor said that this little golden crow was given to everyone in our village at that time and his soul, but there is life and death in our village, once an old man dies, or dies of illness in the prime of life, or dies unexpectedly, the little golden crow in their body will come out and start waiting in the shadows, which makes people unguardable. ”

"What? He actually said such an outrageous reason!" Ye Cheng suddenly felt that this barefoot doctor clearly wanted to control the people in this village, so he said, "Then did he let other people drink his medicine?"

The man was a little surprised, nodded, and said, "That's right, he said that only those who live in this village, or those who are born in this village, can continue this mission." ”

"Hmph, I knew that he just wanted to control you, and then achieve his own conspiracy, although I don't know what it is, but it is definitely a big deal, after all, this is hundreds of lives. ”

The man covered his face and said, "If it is just for future generations to continue to bear the responsibility for the continuation of the race, then it will be enough, after all, the reproduction of our village is inseparable from everyone's efforts, but the barefoot doctor said that if he collects the soul of the little golden crow that was out of tune before, he needs the virgin blood of the ten yellow flower girls in the village." ”

Ye Cheng's face became ugly, and he said with a straight face: "Are those girls all born in the same place?"

The man shook his head and said, "Not really." ”

After hearing this, Ye Cheng felt that the requirements for virgin blood were not high before, could it be that the blood of the girl who had improved it later and started to use the body of Xuanyin?

"Then you also gave it?" Ye Cheng asked.

The man recounted: "At that time, there were a total of thirteen yellow flower girls in the village, and he picked nine of them at that time, and we could all see that he chose some very beautiful and well-established girls, and everyone could see it on the surface, but we dared not speak out, so we could only let him do it, and said that the little golden crow only likes good-looking women." So there were only four girls left, and they escaped the catastrophe like this, but it was because they were not beautiful and had a bad figure, which is really ironic. ”

Ye Cheng glanced at the girl in the arms of the old man in the family, then looked at the man, and asked, "Then what about later, didn't he ask for ten?"

The man angrily slammed his fist on his leg, gritted his teeth and said: "That beast actually chose to have a thirteen-year-old little girl, at that time there was only this girl in the village who looked very smart, like a fairy, but he shamelessly said that he wanted to make up this one." ”

At this point, the woman began to whimper and couldn't eat.

And the old man, too, began to weep, filling the furrows on his face.

Ye Cheng was very puzzled and asked, "Could it be that the woman he chose is your daughter?"

The man sighed heavily and said, "Ah, yes." ”

Ye Cheng was speechless for a moment, he could imagine how reluctant the family was at that time to hand over his thirteen-year-old little girl to that human-faced beast-hearted guy.

Although they were unwilling, there were so many people in the whole village, and they must be a minority obeying the majority, so this guy succeeded.

"Then how are these ten girls?" Ye Cheng asked with some sympathy.

"What else can I do, I can only let him spoil it, and then take these ten women to a hut in the mountains and forests, we are all men, and we all know their fate. The man wept, but he could only wipe it with his big hand.

Ye Cheng said: "You should know that this kind of thing will not end, there will definitely be a few deaths in your village a year, although there are new people to make up, but according to the time, you are afraid that you will have to endure it for a long time, and most of the little girls in your village may have to prepare for the barefoot doctor in the future." ”

Ye Cheng already knew the idea of that beast, but that person now holds the secret of **, so he has always controlled this village.
