Du Jie was just a ghost, and ordinary people couldn't see him at all, so he just stayed in the room and listened to everyone's conversations. Pen~Fun~Ge www.biquge.info It turns out that these people came here quietly in the middle of the night because they wanted to discuss some things with the owner of the hotel.

"Boss, it's almost too late now, is there any suitable person in the store recently? If you don't find it as soon as possible, I'm afraid you know the consequences of this."

An old man who looked very old asked the owner of the hotel, this boss Du Jie knew, usually with a kind smile on people, and he couldn't see any dark side of him at all. But at this time, Du Jie had basically guessed what these people were plotting.

"Mayor of the town, I said before, there is really no one among the tourists who came this time with their own twin children, it is useless for you to force me like this, since the establishment of the town, I have reported the situation truthfully in any year, because I know very well that once the sacrifice cannot be carried out as scheduled, then my financial road will be gone, so I have always tried my best to help, and this time there are really no twin sisters who meet the requirements."

Sure enough, after listening to the words of the hotel owner, Du Jie subconsciously clenched his fists, these people who suddenly appeared were the people in charge of Xiangning, and the purpose of their coming was to force the boss to hand over the twin sisters for this sacrifice. It seems that everything the ghost said to himself was true, and this year's sacrifice could not be held because there were no eligible twin sisters at all this year.

"Hey, it's not that I have doubts about you, it's just that the sacrifice is quite important, and no one dares to guarantee that if you don't sacrifice the twin sisters to the gods this year, something terrible will happen, you know the village here decades ago, people are trapped here, as long as they have the intention of going out, they will die inexplicably, and the death is very terrible, we have been doing these things in the dark for everyone in the town for so many years, and sacrificing two children can save the overall situation, it's nothing. Besides, coincidentally, every year when the festival is about to come, there will be no more, no less, no less twin sisters in the town, I believe that there must be some special meaning, but why is it suddenly absent this year?"

After the mayor finished speaking, he looked at the hotel owner, and the implication was that the owner was lying.

"Mayor Town, I'm really not lying, besides, if the sacrifice is interrupted, the town will be closed, what good will it do me."

This is also a fact, it was precisely because he took a fancy to the development of the town that he came back here to invest in the resort hotel, and later learned the secrets of the town, and even really thought about leaving without wading into this troubled water. However, the overcrowded tourists brought him a lot of benefits, and in the end greed prevailed over conscience, and he signed a pact with the mayor of Xiangning behind his back, and only the two of them knew what it was.

"Boss, you must know that the disappearance of the twin sisters for no reason in the past few years was all caused by you, and you were involved in everything, now if it is for some ridiculous conscience discovery that causes you to unilaterally breach the contract, then your fate will definitely not be much better, I believe that the person's ability you have seen and seen, if the matter of the sacrifice is interrupted or leaks the news, this is not just your personal problem."

Du Jie was very puzzled when he heard these words, where did this breach of contract come from? There is also a key clue mentioned by the mayor of the town, that is, there is a person with the ability to plan everything, and there are also some means to deter the boss, so that he does not dare to disobey the arrangement.

Now it seems that this person is very likely to be Qi Ming, if Xiangning Town can really break the boundary between yin and yang, then Qi Ming must have carried out some more huge conspiracy here, if he can't be sure that this foreign boss can believe it 100%, he will definitely not rest assured. Then, there is only one way to make a person afraid and dare not disobey, and that is to apply both soft and hard. Give him some irresistible temptation, and then do something that scares him. In this way, he can be firmly controlled.

Guiran, as soon as he heard the mayor mention that person, the hotel owner was obviously trembling, and the corners of his eyes were beating irregularly, obviously he was very scared at this time.

"Mayor of the town, you must believe me, I will not and dare not break the contract, but there are really no twins among the tourists."

Of course, he didn't look like he was lying, and the mayor was absolutely convinced that he didn't have the courage to break the contract, because on that contract, the consequences were written in black and white. But if what he said is true, I am afraid that this year's sacrifice will not be able to continue, and the consequences will be very serious.

"Hey, what can I do about this, is it really a catastrophe?"

The mayor looked outside the door and said to himself, in fact, when the town was just established, he was just an ordinary townman, and suddenly one day a stranger came and said many words that he didn't understand at all, but the central idea was to make him the mayor of Xiangning, and the only condition was to let the sacrifice take place in the afternoon. At the time, he was still disgusted by this, and the town festival was handed down from the older generation, and it was held every year. This act of throwing two children into the bottomless abyss at will is shameful to him. But the power of one person cannot change what is deeply ingrained.

So he hasn't been involved in this matter all along, but this stranger said that he was completely sure that he could push himself to the position of mayor. Because he was the one who funded the construction of Xiangning, and this was only a small village at first, and it was not under the jurisdiction of any city at all, so he could also take the position of mayor of the town.

At first, he didn't want to agree, but after thinking about it, maybe only by holding all the power of the town in his hands could he prevent the horrific sacrifice from spreading. So he pretended to agree to the stranger's request. But when he made an agreement, he realized that things were not what he thought it was at all, and this stranger had mysterious powers, proved it in front of him, and warned himself not to try to violate the agreement with his cleverness, otherwise he would definitely die a good death in the future.

That's how it happened, and in the end the stranger made good on his promise and literally pushed himself into the position of mayor of the town. Through this, the mayor began to believe that if he broke the agreement and stopped the sacrifice without permission, he might really die a bad death. Fear and cowardice led him to do many terrible things. Over time, everything becomes natural. He also knew that there was no reason to stop at all.
