Chapter 48: The Sacrifice

Dark and dreary sky,

Dark clouds surge,

The rain poured down, and the curtain of rain covered the entire sky and earth.

riverside grass,

Two figures, a man and a woman, wearing hats and robes, and carrying long swords on their backs, were speeding over the lush reeds.

its appearance,

Hao Ran are two rangers who have traveled in the rivers and lakes.

"Senior brother, this rain is too heavy, why don't we find a place to shelter from the rain! If the immortals of the Four Immortal Sects in Hetang Town have already killed the Demon Monkey King, then it will be useless for us to rush again!"

The woman's breath gasped slightly,

They galloped all the way, and encountered the torrential rain on the top, which was too great an obstacle to the trip, and the woman was already a little tired under the high-intensity rush.

The man looked at his junior sister who was almost drenched behind him, and then looked up at the sky.

As far as the eye could see, there were dark clouds,

The drifting rain pouring everywhere,

Sighed:

"That's it, let's go find a place to rest first, it's raining so hard, it's not in a hurry. ”

More than ten days ago,

Their senior brothers and sisters learned from their friends in the rivers and lakes that a demon monkey king had appeared near Hetang Town, leading many demon monkeys to attack the spirit fruit woodland guarded by the four immortal gates, and the people of the immortal sect were gathering people to besiege and kill.

Once the Demon Monkey King is successfully strangled, then the corpses of those Monkey Demons can be distributed according to merit.

The four immortal gates in Hetang Town are not bad,

There were no reports of any deductions or anything like that.

So I heard the news,

The two brothers and sisters rushed to Hetang Town overnight.

In this quack,

Which martial artist doesn't want to obtain a spiritual object once he wants, feel the success of his qi, and thus step into the realm of the immortal gate?

The so-called Jianghu martial arts,

To a large extent, it is because many mortals want to ask for the Dao Immortal Sect, in order to make it easier to obtain the opportunity of spiritual objects to improve their own strength, the transitional class formed before entering the Immortal Dao.

Martial Immortal Path,

itself is the meaning of the existence of this Jianghu martial arts.

Although the martial artists are extremely dangerous in the face of low-level demon beasts, the monkey demon spirit objects of the Four Immortal Gates in Hetang Town this time are not so easy to take, and they are full of dangers.

But at least there was such an opportunity, and they had to seize it!

It was because of their two brothers and sisters who came overnight,

It's a pity that in the middle of the way,

Something happened and there was a delay for some time, and then it rained heavily, which caused them a lot of trouble on their journey.

"Senior brother, there seem to be some people in front of you, you should be able to find a village to shelter from the rain!"

Looking up,

But I saw a group of farmers and peasants gathered there on the riverside in front of me, not knowing what to do.

Vaguely,

It seemed to be the sound of a child crying.

Although there were some doubts, the two senior brothers and sisters were bold and bold, so they didn't worry too much, and flew forward directly.

To a distance of more than ten feet,

See everything in front of you,

His eyes widened in horror,

Shocked and angry,

Deng Shi shouted angrily:

"Bastard, what are you doing?!!!!

But when I see the riverside,

A group of village husbands and peasant women knelt by the river and kept bowing towards the rushing river.

And before them,

Two ragged six- and seven-year-old children were inside a wooden cage, and four shirtless men were carrying the cages to the river and pushing them into the murky water.

The yellow turbid river rushed and flooded, pouring into the wooden cage,

The older girl in the cage hugged her brother who was afraid of crying constantly, and pulled up the wooden cage with her hands, but the rushing turbid river water had already submerged more than half of the two of them.

The girl's small face was pale, and her eyes looked in horror at the four strong men beside her who were pushing the cage into the raging river.

His lips trembled, and he couldn't speak.

"Stop me!!"

The man roared angrily, and hurriedly used light skills to rush out from a high place, like a big bird flying a few feet away, kicking out his feet in the air one after another, and kicking the four strong men around the wooden cage back in an instant.

And at this time,

The woman, who was also shocked and angry, fluttered lightly, and pulled up the wooden cage that was about to sink into the turbid and churning river.

The sword light flashed,

The cage splits,

The woman hugged both the crying boy and the frightened girl behind her.

Sudden changes,

Caused one of the villagers to stop kneeling.

Stand up,

Then I saw the crowd parting,

An old man on crutches and with a face like the bark of an old locust tree walked out angrily,

The crutches slammed a few times on the grass by the river,

questioned the two brothers and sisters who suddenly came out:

"Who are you, and why are you interrupting our sacrifice to the river god?"

"What kind of bullshit sacrifice, do you still have to use two children as sacrifices?!"

In the face of the aggressive gaze of the villagers, the Jianghu woman was not afraid at all, and her arms protected the two little guys who were trembling with fright, and scolded the old guy who was in the lead.

"What do you two outsiders know?!"

"This river has a serious river god, and there is no one to feed the dead leftovers of those two parents who are dead, so what's the problem with sending them to the river god to eat and drink spicy food?"

The old man was furious, pointing at the noses of the two brothers and sisters and scolding.

"Hurry up and hand over the people to us, otherwise don't blame us rough people for being rude!"

"Yes, get out of here and hand them over!"

"If you provoke the angry river god, you have something to eat!"

"Strangers, you are not welcome here, get out of here!"

Behind

A group of villagers echoed loudly, and the momentum was surging.

"Hah!"

The man inhales heavily,

Almost laughed angrily.

He used to hear that in some remote places, there would be foolish men and foolish women who would worship monsters as mountain gods and take living people as sacrifices.

I thought it was just some country legends, and I didn't believe it.

I didn't expect to really encounter it today, and this so-called foolish man and foolish woman in the village killed people's lives, and it was the lives of two children, they all deserved it so much!

"Since you say it so well, why don't you go and serve the river god yourself?"

"What's your business!"

"Outlander, get out of here!"

A group of villagers with sticks in their hands kept making noise.

The man in the rivers and lakes was pale,

decided not to talk nonsense anymore,

Like a phantom flying into the crowd, the true qi swept and swept into the air, and several young strong men in the front were immediately kicked out.

The men in the rivers and lakes are like tigers entering the flock, rushing left and right.

How could these ordinary people, who couldn't even punch or kick three or two times, be his opponents, one move at a time, knocking down the besieging villagers one after another?

Soon a group of villagers were beaten to pieces and fled backwards in embarrassment.

"You guys, you wait, Lord River God will definitely punish you!"

The old man was pulled by a group of people,

Constantly staggering backwards,

seemed to be frightened by the ferocity of the men in the rivers and lakes, and his hands and feet trembled.

"Hmph, that Lao Tzu is standing here, waiting to see how it punishes me!"

The voice did not fall,

The wind and rain are more urgent,

The turbid water rushing by the river began to stir rapidly, and a huge shadow slowly drifted away......
