After everyone laughed, they followed Yuan Gang's footwork until sunset and dusk, and then found a foothold.

Lynch's body has become stronger, and his breath is more pure, Yuan Gang can naturally tell it, but in this short half a day, how did Lynch do it.

Yuan Gang didn't know this, and he couldn't ask, maybe Lynch was just a coincidence and realized something.

"Master, there is a temple fair in the city at night, and Senior Brother Wang wants to ask me out to have a look!"

Lynch walked to Yuan Gang's room, knocked on the door, and then walked in and said respectfully.

"Go ahead, remember not to cause trouble!"

Yuan Gang nodded, the purpose of bringing Lynch out was to let him increase his knowledge and experience.

"Thank you, Master!"

After all, Lynch was still young, and soon left the courtyard with Senior Brother Wang Zhong and the others and went straight to the city.

A group of six people walked to the city, because today is the first day of the new year, there are not only temple fairs, but also various activities, and people come and go on the street.

All kinds of snacks, as well as strange things, are endless.

"Roar, Roar, Roar, ......Roar, Roar, Roar, Roar, T

A strange roar came from a distance, and a large number of people, wearing strange masks, like a parade, were rampant through the streets.

Passers-by avoided them when they came across, unwilling to provoke them.

Lynch and the others were having fun, and the crowd automatically separated, not knowing what was going on, and they also followed the flow of people and stood on both sides of the street.

"Every year at the temple fair, these cows, ghosts, snakes and gods will appear!"

Standing next to Lynch, a vendor muttered, and when the men were gone, he continued to shout and sell goods.

"Boss, who are they?"

Lynch threw out a spirit stone and asked the vendor.

Seeing the spirit stone, the hawker's eyes lit up, and Lynch looked harmless to humans and animals, always smiling, which made people feel good.

Wang Zhong and the others also approached, wanting to know who this group of masked people were.

"They are a big local gang, called the Ghost Face Gang, and every year during the temple fair, they will come out in groups, and the main purpose is to worship the river god!"

The hawker smiled bitterly, every year at the temple fair, these Grimace Gang people will appear, and it is no longer strange.

"Sacrifice to the river god?"

The question was not Lin Qi, but Yu Lei, the female disciple of Ziyanmen.

On this day, we are very familiar with each other, and we are no longer separated from each other.

"This girl doesn't know, the river god is our patron saint, guarding this side of the world, every year the temple fair, the purpose of sacrificing the river god, there used to be a big flood every year, if it wasn't for the river god, this place has been razed to the ground!"

The hawker took the trouble to explain, and there were not many customers anyway, because of the intervention of the Ghostface Gang, some people who originally planned to participate in the temple fair chose to leave.

"I still don't understand, what does the big water have to do with the river god?"

Yu Lei continued to ask, and Lynch was also confused.

Listening to the hawkers, the river god should be omnipotent, saved tens of thousands of lives, and finally built temples and accepted the worship of the world, so that there is today's temple fair.

"You're foreign!"

From the words of Lynch and the others, it can be heard that they should have met here by chance, so they have so many problems.

"Boss, we are also traveling in the mountains and rivers, it happens to be here, I hope to tell us more!"

Lynch took out another spirit stone and threw it in front of the hawker, and when he saw the spirit stone, the hawker's eyes lit up.

"This has to start from hundreds of years ago, when it was just a small town, because it was close to the salt lake, there would be a big flood every year, and the people were not happy, and one day a river god came to guard the salt lake, and since then, there has never been a big flood!"

The hawkers talked with gusto, and Lynch secretly speculated that there must be a water monster living in this salt lake, which caused the flood to hit the town.

The river god they praised is most likely the water monster in the salt lake, taking advantage of people's ignorance to deceive the world, and also build temples to sing praises from generation to generation.

"If you go forward, you will see a tall tower, and at this time, the sacrificial items should have been placed on top of the tower!"

The peddler came to the customer, did not continue to talk to Lynch, and went busy.

"Let's go check it out!"

Lynch also aroused curiosity about how this sacrifice to the river god was held.

More and more people gathered towards the tower that the hawkers said, and tens of thousands of people watched, and the scene was extremely spectacular.

Countless firelights illuminated a simple and pitch-black tower, about 100 meters high, and on the top of the tower, it exuded a faint luster.

"Why is there still someone up there?"

Yu Lei exclaimed, at the top of the tower, there were dozens of people, who were trapped with ropes, unable to move, and placed on the platform of the tower.

Beneath the tower, tens of thousands of people sang and danced and roared excitedly.

"They actually sacrificed with living people!"

Wang Zhong frowned, understood the meaning of the sacrifice, and used more than a dozen boys and girls to put them on the top of the tower to worship the river god.

"This kind of human sacrifice has long been extinct, how can it appear here!"

Lynch knows more about the mainland, and he showed doubts, who would dare to be so bold and sacrifice a living person.

Obviously, this kind of human sacrifice is shameful and vicious.

The dozen or so people tied up on the top of the tower, a total of five men and five women, were not very old, only about fifteen or sixteen years old, and they were all pure boys and girls.

The youth is vigorous, and the girl is vibrant!

The five women wept and wept, they didn't want to die yet, especially in this way, to give it to the river god and become his food.

And these people under the tower were indifferent, as if they were normal, losing ten people in exchange for tens of thousands of peace, it was too worthwhile.

One year they did not hand over the sacrificial items on time, and that night heavy rain hit the basin, and the salt lake flowed back, killing and wounding countless thousands, enough to die in the flood.

"For the sake of temporary peace, in such a cruel way, it is simply inhumane!"

Yu Lei was indignant, and the others nodded one after another.

"Senior Brother Wang Zhong, we can't just watch them sacrifice to that so-called river god!"

Zhang Shulin walked out, not tall, slightly fat, and planned to save the ten of them.

"Senior Brother Lin, what do you think we should do?"

Wang Zhong didn't reply in a hurry, but asked Lynch.

After all, they are just outsiders, and when they first arrive, people's sacrificial activities have been going on for hundreds of years, and a sudden interruption will definitely attract the hatred of countless people.

"Don't be in a hurry, let's wait and see, see who the river god is, and he has to eat the living to keep one safe!"

Lynch pondered for a moment, planning to wait, the time is still early, first to participate in the temple fair, and after the river god appears, it is too late to make plans.

"Okay, let's wait and see!"

Wang Zhong nodded in agreement, and the five quickly blended into the crowd.

In the middle area, a bonfire was lit, and countless people gathered around the bonfire, jumping happily.

It is in stark contrast to the five men and five women on the tower.

"Please, let go of my son, I'll kowtow to you!"

In a dark corner of the street, an elderly woman kneels and kowtows to several of the leaders of the Ghostface Gang, whose son has been chosen this year to be sacrificed.

"Get out of here, your son can be chosen, that's your family's creation!"

Several leaders kicked the old woman in the body, and the latter flew upside down, spurting a large mouthful of blood onto the wall, and she passed out.

The screams were quickly drowned out by the noise outside, but they couldn't stop Lynch's senses.

"Let's go!"

Lynch weaved through the crowd and quickly walked into the alley, where the Ghostfaces had already left, except for the blood on the ground.

The old woman stood up with great difficulty, her face was pale, she leaned against the wall, and looked at the tower, her eyes blurred with tears.

"Son, it's all bad for your mother, let you go out, only to be caught by them......"

The old woman cried and cried as she watched her son be put down on the tower and become a sacrifice, and cried to death.

"Old man, what the hell is going on, why are you crying so much?"

Yu Lei walked over, held the old woman, and found that she was seriously injured and could be life-threatening if not treated.

mobilized the yuan force, dredged the old woman's body, and a large mouthful of blood spit out of the old woman's mouth, and her face looked better.

"My son!"

After the old woman recovered, she cried even louder, and this was the only son, and if it was gone, the whole family would collapse.

"Don't worry, old woman, tell us, maybe we can help!"

Lynch said comfortingly, the old woman was in a better mood, and looked at the six of Lynch, all of them were handsome and starry, not like evil people.

"Alas......"

The old woman sighed, revealing a deep look of helplessness.

"It's all my fault, at this juncture, let my son go out for a trip, and was discovered by the people of the Ghostface Gang, so he was arrested and given to the river god as a sacrifice!"

The old woman told everything about it.

It turned out that he had three sons, the eldest son and the second son, all of whom were taken away by the river god, and now only one son is left, and it is still difficult to escape the doom.

In the city, the Ghostface Gang is like the representative of the river gods, and at this time, they go around scavenging boys and girls, who must not be more than eighteen years old.

It is rare to have to keep the body of a child, and it is a painstaking effort to get ten people a year.

"Old woman, what the hell is this river god?"

Lynch continued to ask, wanting to know more about the river god.

"It's big, it's big, every time it comes out, it's accompanied by a flood, covering its body, and when the flood waters recede, the offerings that have been placed will disappear with it!"

The old woman looked terrified, and was in awe of the river god.

Lynch and Wang Zhong glanced at each other, and saw the same answer in each other's eyes.

This is by no means a river god, but a monster, whose main purpose is to eat people, and likes to eat young boys and girls.

From the old woman's narration, the six people can basically conclude that the river god is a demon beast that occupies the salt lake and harms one party.

"Please, you must save my son, I am such a son!"

After the old woman finished speaking, she knelt down towards Lynch and the others, and she could only treat the dead horse as a live horse doctor, and she couldn't fight the Grimace Gang at all.

"Don't worry, we will definitely save your son!"

Lynch's eyes showed a hint of chill, the monster that eats people must be an evil thing, if it is not eradicated, more people will suffer in the future.

Thank you for the Cheyennellu tip and the valuable commuter pass!
