"According to this process, they have finished sacrificing to their ancestors. It is probably a worship of the god of water and the god of the land. Qiu Lan's eyes stared at the ceremony in front of her without blinking, as if she had something on her mind, "Chu Yi is right, if this process continues, I can't figure out the purpose of our trip." ”

Hearing them say this, my original mood of watching the excitement gradually dissipated. Lori had said that we were here to preside over the sacrifice, but now this situation simply doesn't look right. No one came to tell us what we should do today, we felt like we had been forgotten.

"Wu Chao, you watch here first, and I'll go over there and take a look." Qiulan patted me on the shoulder, turned her head and walked in the direction of the sacrifice, "Remember to call me if you have something, I'll be back later." ”

I looked at her departing back, and I couldn't help but feel a little nervous. After all, Qiulan is much more knowledgeable than me, and she went to see what new things might come from. I had to continue to stare at the ritual in front of me, and before I knew it, more than half an hour had passed.

"Eh, Xiao Chao," Qin Chuyi on the side suddenly called out to me, "That, can you take me somewhere?" ”

"Where?" I saw that his expression was a little strange, and he wanted to say goodbye, and his body was restless.

"I ...... I want to pee. He said with a blushing face.

“……”

Holding the giant baby, he walked all the way down the porch, but he didn't see the toilet. The structure of the village chief's house is different from Xiao Luo's, and I don't know what to do for a while. At this time, an old man suddenly poked his head out of the window of the next room, probably asleep and was woken up by the sound of us walking.

"Uncle, where is your toilet?" I asked.

"Huh?" Uncle squinted, sleepy-eyed, and didn't seem to understand what I was saying.

"Toilet! Where's the toilet? I raised my voice, and my face flushed.

He was stunned for a moment, babbling at me for a while, and I was confused.

"Shhhh Shhhh Qin Chuyi, who was standing on the side, suddenly said to the uncle.

"Oh!" The uncle immediately showed a look of sudden realization and pointed us in the direction.

I really admire Qin Chuyi so much, and I really have to rely on him at critical moments. But he seems to be running out of his hand. I threw off my crutches and leaned against the wall and immediately walked into the toilet, and stayed in it for ten minutes.

"Hey! You okay? I shouted inside.

"Can it be good? The stuff here is so natural, my industrialized stomach seems to be a little intolerant. He said in a stifled voice, sounding very funny.

"Be careful. Say what you need me to do. ”

"You can't come in and help me, just wait at the door."

The smell of the all-natural toilet was also very natural, I frowned, walked a few steps and waited for him on the airy corridor. Suddenly remembered Qiulan, she wouldn't have gone back now. Will you not find me? But Qin Chuyi couldn't touch the hut on his own. I suddenly became a little agitated.

At the end of the corridor, a woman dressed in navy blue walked up to me, and I thought she was going to the bathroom, so I didn't pay much attention. The old man who had been talking to us just now poked his head out again, and the woman communicated with him in the local dialect for a while, and her eyes suddenly fell on me.

"Oh!" The woman nodded and walked over to me. She grabbed my arm, spat in a flustered tongue, shook her head and nodded, and pulled me straight back.

"I'm waiting for someone, waiting for someone to shhh I gestured to her. I don't know if she understands what I mean. That's when I realized how important it was to learn more than one foreign language.

The woman kept gesturing with her hands all over her body, talking more and more, faster and faster, and finally even the old man began to talk to me. I looked at her gesture as if she was saying that there was a girl with long hair waiting for me, and I thought it was probably because Qiulan couldn't find me after she came back, and asked someone to come to look for me.

I guess I was impatient, the woman grabbed my sleeve and dragged me to the side of the corridor, I hurriedly turned around and shouted a few times in the direction of Qin Chuyi.

"The first day of junior high school! I'll go back first! I'm coming to you right away! ”

The voice passed through the dark corridor, and I don't know if he heard it, and finally I followed the woman back to the room I had just had. Wait until I'm in. And she left. Along the way, I was thinking about how these people didn't feel honored at all since they were looking for us for help, but were a little rude, and I didn't know how Qiulan was doing now. Did you find anything?

I looked at the empty room, a little stunned, and turned my head to look at the sacrificial field opposite, and there were no people left in the three circles just now. Is the sacrifice over? I was about to ask her where Qiulan had gone, when there was a sudden noise at the door of the room, and three people dressed in the same clothes walked in one by one.

All three were dressed in traditional navy blue clothes. He wears traditional ornaments on his head and neck, and he looks very heavy. Looking at their posture and demeanor, it can be judged that these three people are women. But unlike the woman who called me back before, all three had masks on their faces. The masks were carved with animal figures, all of which grinned with their teeth very frighteningly. The man standing in the middle was walking towards me with a red and white dress in his hand. Speaking in a dialect I didn't understand, a voice floated out from under the mask.

"Wait a minute, Qiulan hasn't come back yet." I said, and before I could finish speaking, one of the two remaining women took me by the hand and led me into the room.

"What's wrong? Qiulan hasn't come back yet. "I'm a little confused.

Not long after I got into the dark room, the three of them began to undress me. I immediately realized that something was wrong, that these people must have mistaken me for Qiulan and wanted me to go to the sacrifice.

"It's not me, it's another girl." I explained, but the men didn't respond to me, and continued with what they were doing. I panicked and shook off their hands.

"Wait a minute! Not me! I said excitedly.

They saw that I was resistant, and their movements stopped. Then another woman came into the room. The woman, who was not wearing a mask and had a headscarf around her head, said to me in a very influent Mandarin:

"It's time. Fast. Velocity. ”

I finally grabbed a life-saving straw and hurriedly said, "Sister, it's another person, you are mistaken." ”

She understood me and replied, "Go first." Change again. Wait a minute, then change. "It probably means that I will participate for Qiulan first, and then change back after a while.

I think about it, too, the sacrifices in people's villages are all based on the concept of the hour, and it's not good to make a mistake. Qiulan should be back soon, as long as I stay with her for a while, it should be fine.

When the three women saw that I agreed, they immediately got busy with the work in their hands, and helped me change into the clothes they had brought. I wondered how they could see the life in their hands with their brass masks, and as I opened my eyes, the paint in the hands of the woman on the other side was smeared on my head.
