Chapter 128: The Blood Moon Takes Shape
Du Jie followed the crowd towards the secret passage, but all his attention was on observing the environment, and the mournful barking of dogs was incessant, but the people were not aware of the anomaly of the situation, and they only wanted to throw the mayor into the pit as soon as possible to end it. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoAt present, most of the prophecies spoken by the old man on his death have begun to manifest. As the moon turns red, the dogs chirp, smoke rises, ghosts and wails are heard. Now the moon in the sky is gradually turning red, and it looks as if it is infected with blood. This kind of astronomical spectacle may cause scholars around the world to go crazy.
In the meantime, the mayor has been quietly in prison, he has no hope for his fate, the only thing he can do is to wait, until the night comes, the sentence of death will be announced, everything will end tonight, and his salvation will be found at that time. But having said that, when people came to the secret passage and the sound of rapid footsteps reached his ears, he still couldn't help but feel a little afraid, after all, no one would be calm when facing death. Although this tragic end has long been predestined, no one can break it.
For the mayor, he would rather die of starvation or thirst than die in the pit, what is in it is unknown, every time he sacrifices, when he orders to throw his sister who has been strangled to death and the sister who is still alive into the pit, there seems to be some abnormal sound coming from the depths of the earth, which sounds ethereal, but it makes people feel great fear in their hearts. Death was approaching little by little, and the mayor of the town became desperate, even though he knew that no matter what he said or done, he could not help but scream and struggle as the people came here and opened the prison.
"You poor ignorant people, you still don't understand, even if I die, you will all be buried together, don't think that things will really be like the judgment said, you are so mad and ungrateful, I will come to this situation for your sake."
But no one cares what Mayor Mare's says, and sometimes people think very strangely in life, and when everyone agrees on something, the more you refute it, or the more you want people to realize that it's wrong, the more they will think. The mayor's words were very pale and weak, for he could not have struggled to escape the hands of the people yesterday, and now that he had been hungry for another day, he had already become very weak, and the people carried him towards the locked door in the corner.
Before, Du Jie knew from the old man's mouth that behind this door was the sacrificial pit, when he wanted to go in to see what it was like, but was stopped by the old man, claiming that it was very terrible, even if you look at it, bad things will happen, so whether to follow up, Du Jie was a little hesitant, in case of waiting, if the situation gets out of control, evil ghosts will appear, evil spirits will breed, and he will not be able to escape, wouldn't it be even worse. After thinking about it for a long time, Du Jie still walked in with the crowd, because he felt that everything would end tonight, and he had been in Xiangning for so long, although he knew now that it had nothing to do with him, but after all, he had also seriously investigated, so there should be no major problems in the past, even if there was any emergency, he could run away immediately when the mayor was thrown into the pit.
The locked door was opened by the leader with the key, and in an instant an extremely pungent and unpleasant smell came out, and people frowned and resisted the urge to vomit. Then, after entering the other side of the door, this space is much larger than the prison, and in the center, there is really a deep pit with a diameter of several hundred meters, Du Jie clearly feels that the evil qi from the pit is very thick, just standing on this side makes him very uncomfortable. However, what made Du Jie feel most incredible was that as people approached, streams of miserable green gas floated out above him, slowly flowing into the deep pit, and it was obvious that it was absorbing the evil in people's hearts. Du Jie didn't dare to approach easily, he was afraid that he would be affected, so he stood at the door, quietly watching what happened in front of him.
The men carried the mayor to the edge of the pit, and then tied him to the ground, and the mayor was now wide with rage, bright red blood all over his eyes, he had been invaded by fear, and the only thing he could think of was that he didn't want to die.
"No.... You can't do that to me, no. I don't want to die as a sacrifice".....
At this point, whatever he said was useless, and the twenty men, covered in wide robes, walked up to the pit, stretched their hands forward and began to speak obscure language. Du Jie knew that they were reciting the sacrificial text, and every time the sacrifice was performed, he had to do it. The rest of the townsfolk fell to their knees, desperately begging for the gods' support and forgiveness.
Outside the secret passage, the barking canines broke free from the shackles and fled frantically in all directions, as if something terrible threatened them, you must know that dogs and cats have always been extremely popular, and they also have a certain ability to perceive things that cannot be seen by the human eye. So at this time, they were infected by the cold aura that gradually enveloped the town, and began to be irritable. Then, the moon in the sky was completely dyed a shocking red, and from time to time there was a gust of wind blowing throughout the town, and the evil spirits were about to appear, and the people would not escape.
At this time, everyone in the town was praying in front of the deep pit of the secret passage, so no one knew what was happening outside, all the animals began to flee in panic, and even all the plants in the town began to show a state of death, and the blood moon exuded a strange light, at this time, from the entrance of the town, a cloud of gray mist was rapidly drifting into the town, and at the same time, the sound of ghosts crying wolves was heard from time to time.
Du Jie was very sensitive to the resentment and evil spirit around him, and when the evil ghosts attacked outside, he sensed it, knowing that this disaster had already begun. He tried to make a loud noise to warn the people to get out of here, but no one could hear him, and at the same time, the sacrifice was finished, and the twenty men lifted the already frightened mayor again, and then threw him hard, and the mayor was thrown into the pit, and the people could only hear his desperate and unwilling shouts.
