However, the sacrifice in the festival of lights has only begun in the last 100 years. "Words*love*first*hair] [No pop-ups, the page is clean, just read the book. 】
A hundred years ago, the Lantern Festival is said to be still hot, and this year, a girl who came out for the first time to choose a mate at the Lantern Festival made everyone moved, and her graceful figure lingered in the hearts and minds of the men around her.
However, she only likes one man, and after falling in love with that man, she was about to get up and leave, but someone leaned over and said that she wanted to "exchange food" with that man, but the girl didn't talk, and what she liked turned out to be a heartless person.
The man nodded happily, and without looking back, he went to enjoy the "new food" that she had exchanged for
And no matter how she struggled, even if she screamed out of her throat, no one came to help her, but her shouting aroused the attention of more people, and her appearance and posture ushered in more greedy eyes.
That night, she was the only one who was exchanged for "food" by all the men who came to the Lantern Festival.
In the end, the woman died of exhaustion.
However, from that day on, for a whole year, in the Purple Cloud Country, the people who participated in the Lantern Festival that year had accidents one after another.
Some people often say in fear that at night they will hear the voice of a miserable woman by the river, "Why why?"

But no one could come up with a better solution.
With the resolute support of the courtiers, the lord of the kingdom decreed that in the future, every Lantern Festival, a woman would be selected as a saint to be used as a sacrifice on the day of the Lantern Festival to become food for all members of the opposite sex.
Not to mention, on that day, after all the men who were in the Lantern Festival were spared, Ziyun Country also stabilized. Some ignorant people began to preach that the sacrifice was really effective and could keep the people of Ziyun Kingdom safe.
Later, it became that this sacrifice could be made by both men and women, so every year before the Lantern Festival, families with young and beautiful women or strong men with handsome eyebrows trembled.
made a sacrifice, and after such a ravage; Basically, there is no one who can survive, and if there is a very strong person, if there is barely a breath left, it will be regarded as the embodiment of that "holy woman". In order to avoid causing panic, the man was to sink to the bottom of the river. Men and women who can make sacrifices will naturally have rich rewards at home from the lord of the country.
Since this regulation was introduced, I heard that a few years ago, Ziyun Kingdom had escaped a sacrifice, and he was still a man.
It is said that the man is a rare character in the world, and all the women are excitedly waiting for the night of the Lantern Festival to have an intimate encounter with him. But while everyone was putting Krathong, he untied himself and ran directly under the rope
