Chapter 6: Forgiveness

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!" The fierce beast stood on the hill under the bright moon with the old man and child on its back, stood still with thick fleshy palms, stood still and opened its wings and roared happily, and the roar of the naturally mighty beast echoed on the desert island in the west, startling a strange bird in the forest.

There were timid people in the crowd, and they almost didn't pee.

The strong force next to Ayeg shook at this time and stroked his chest, he was a huge contrast with his name, he was not strong or fierce, and he was even a little timid.

Recently, I've been panicking about these sudden monsters and the inexplicable disappearance in the village. He didn't dare to look at Maomao, for fear that this beast would be staring at him if he was not good, and he would bite him.

Dali Meng gossiped to Ayeger, who also looked sullen: "Is that fat man the Destiny of Heaven that Grandma Sang said?" Do you know what the Mandate Man is? ”

Ayeg shook his head, sad in his heart, the emotion in his heart was cut off before it could bear fruit.

He didn't admit it himself, but his affection for wormwood had been planted in the three years that wormwood had selflessly taken care of his mother.

Wormwood's husband died, and he thought he had hope. I didn't expect ......

Dali whispered: "Is the patriarch's mother mistaken, my grandfather said that this kind of fierce beast can distinguish between good and evil, and likes to eat great good people, but it is especially good for big evil people." ”

"After this fat man came, so many monsters appeared, I think it seems like she brought it."

"There are so many people missing from the village, if it is really the disaster she brings, she is the disaster star, and the Mandate of Heaven means the disaster star? Doesn't sound like the same thing. ”

Ayège had the same doubts and firmness in his heart: yes, it was all the fault of the poor strange.

Grandma Sang courtesy of the Mandate of Heaven, but he didn't think that the arrival of this fat man was a good thing, if the Mandate of Heaven brought her to the desert island in the West at the same time, and brought the murderer who killed wormwood, then she was also a murderer, not to mention that the beast is now bowing down to this so-called Mandate of Heaven, they are simply a raccoon dog.

Ayeg clenched his fists: he would not sit idly by and watch the murderer go uncommon among them.

Ayeg turned his head, and the fierce light in his eyes frightened Da Limeng, and he only heard him say: "You are right, even if we can't kill her to avenge Wormwood, we must drive her away, and we can't let her plague our Xinan Village again." ”

After resting in the woods for a night, Yuan Qinqin took Maomao and followed the villagers to Xinan Village, where Xiaodouding was handed over to the women of the village to take care of by Grandma Sang.

She observed the surrounding environment and remembered Grandma Sang's words, Yuan Qinqin didn't expect the scene to be like this.

After she came down the mountain, she could only passively accept the facts in front of her: what Grandma Sang said was actually true, there was really a village here, and it was really an island.

The villagers stood alive in front of them, children ran around, women with clay pots on their heads, and linen leather skirts covering key parts, observing her vigilantly and curiously, in their original flavor and packaging.

The sea breeze blows on the island, and the heat and the smell of the sea water blows in your face. Yuan Qinqin stood outside Grandma Sang's wooden house for a long time before bending down into Grandma Sang's house.

Seeing the primitive and simple furnishings inside, I didn't say a word. What I had seen and heard in the past two days quickly stirred together in my mind, boiling into a cruel soup called the truth.

She convinced herself that she couldn't lie to herself anymore that this was another mass of hysteria, and if these were true, then it would mean that the continent that she didn't know was real, and this era was also true.

She should have crossed over, her home, possibly, temporarily, and could not go back.

Mom and Dad, forgive me (not coming back on time) and bless me (finding my way home) .......

Perhaps it was the rest of these days that shook her nerves, and after accepting the fact of crossing, she didn't cry out, nor was she impatient, and the calm fat played a role.

At this time, she just wants to know how things happened, as long as she knows the beginning of things, she can always find clues, and she can find a way to return to her own world.

She stood in Grandma Sang's wooden house for a long time, and suddenly rushed towards Grandma Sang, and grabbed the old woman's hand holding the cane like a last straw.

Yuan Qinqin: "Mother-in-law, mother-in-law, you can see it, I am very different from you, we are very different." ”

She showed off her equipment and fat, saying that she was really very different from them.

"I'm from a far away place, maybe the time and space are different, but I have family and friends there, and I have my own business. I have to find a way to go home now, my parents are the only one child, and if I don't go back, they will have no one to take care of. ”

"You have magic, you must have a way to know how to get me home, right?"

Grandma Sang looked at Yuan Qinqin like this, and had to tell her that the altar left by the ancestors could be done.

In the past, she couldn't really use it because Ennan Island didn't have the power of gods and demons, but now that she has it, she can use her magic power to open the stone mirror left by her ancestors, so that she can see the past she wants to see.

Maybe there is a certain number in the dark, and she does what she has to do.

Grandma Sang kowtowed to the stone statue of the ancestors, gathered everyone, and made sacrifices.

She waited for the Mandate of Heaven to come, and she had to report it to the ancestors, and the things that the ancestors had passed down to the Mandate of Heaven would be passed on to her, and now her mission would be more than half completed.

The villagers gathered silently under the altar, silently. Mao Mao carried his luggage, followed Yuan Qinqin, and walked uneasily in the crowd.

Yuan Qinqin was carrying only a travel bag containing important items.

Looking at the silent crowd, their expressions are indescribable: fear, disgust, indifference, numbness, just no welcome and joy.

Yuan Qinqin didn't know that she was too simple and naΓ―ve to deal with Maomao's affairs, even in modern times, dogs known as good human companions bite people like that, and they have to be killed the same, not to mention that wormwood died because of Maomao.

She thought that as long as Mao Mao was obedient and stopped doing evil, the villagers would slowly accept it, maybe Mao Mao would protect them and do their duty, and over time, they would forgive it.

However, what she didn't know was that most of the villagers had already believed that Mao Mao and the beasts, including Yuan Qinqin, were the culprits who brought unwarranted disasters to Ennan Island.

Grandma Sang was immersed in the confusion of the unknown, every time she sacrificed, the villagers were solemn and silent, she didn't feel anything wrong, at this time she was wearing an old white robe with intricate patterns, wearing a white feather crown, and her face was painted with stones to the totem.

It looks solemn and holy. The altar is one person high, with a total of three steps, and there are steps in the four symmetrical directions.

On the first order, the Sang patriarch stood in the wind. In the next order, eight shrine maidens were in black robes, four on each side, their faces covered with masks, and their faces could not be seen.

At the next level, ten male witches carried large drums, small drums, large sand balls, small sand balls, cow bone bells, and magic weapons whose names were not recognized.

The witches all wore bells around their hands and feet, but because of their solemnity, none of them rang the bells.

Under the altar neatly surrounded the villagers, outside the villagers outside the edge of the big sacrificial field, along the circle of the sacrificial field, there are eight high platforms, on which eight big drums are placed, eight strong men waiting, they hold big drumsticks in their hands, their skin is shiny, their muscles are strong, and their bodies are fit.

Grandma Sang stretched out her hand towards Yuan Qinqin. motioned for her to come to him. Mao Mao was stopped under the altar by the villagers.

In a group of inexplicable eyes, she walked resolutely towards the altar and the stone mirror sculpture on the altar.

The style of this altar is gorgeous, completely different from the usual simple and primitive people of the West, with extremely beautiful patterns and carvings wrapped around the ground, and three sculptures standing side by side on the altar.

On the left is a stone scroll that has been rolled up, the scroll is beautifully shaped, engraved with ancient characters, half unfolded as if someone is reading, very vivid.

On the right is enshrined a ball wrapped in a flame-shaped stone sculpture, perfectly wrapped in a dancing flame, with a hollow pattern on the ball.

You can see that there are hollow balls in the middle, and many layers inside are hollow balls, the smaller and more exquisite they are, and they are indescribably shocking.

The shape of the stone mirror in the middle is very simple, but it is not the round shape used by people in this era, but more like the vertical dressing mirror used by modern people, and Yuan Qinqin stands in the center of the altar.

The wizard on the third floor began to gently shake the bell in his hand, and the sacrifice began.

The shrine maidens chanted incantations in the ancient language, and the words they did not understand floated in the air with the gentle chanting. The chanting dispersed, and the drums began to sound again and again, and the sound vibrated and scattered. The witch dance is rough and the bells are ringing.

Suddenly, the Great Witch stretched out his hands to the sky and slowly chanted. The soul seems to turn into a tree, gradually following the direction of the wind, following the rhythm of the wind and gently swaying, the wind is sometimes light and sometimes slow, sometimes blowing so that people can't open their eyes and can't take a step.

"The time is not good, and the war begins.

Sad for my homeland, sad and parting.

I don't sleep at night, and my soul returns.

……”

I want to live, get out of here, and find a home where I can live.

Yuan Qinqin only felt that the blood on his body was singing with this chanting, and the drum was boiling.

This ancient ritual carried a solemn atmosphere, and Yuan Qinqin seemed to see a group of people migrating tenaciously in the windy wind on the edge of the desolate battlefield.

Everyone's face was full of longing for life, and as they went, they buried the bodies of their dead comrades, took their belongings, brought their faith, and continued to walk towards the end of the yellow sand.

Through the long yellow sand, there are fierce bumps in the sea, violent wind and rain, looming reefs, and it is difficult to leave the terrifying storm reefs, as well as the dangerous resentful sea.

Finally broke free from the beast in the sea and went ashore, what kind of situation is this? Few of the clansmen behind him survived, and the future was unknown. But we have to live, to live steadfastly.

Yuan Qinqin seemed to be swept into the hearts of the ancestors, closed her eyes, fell into a tear, opened her eyes, Grandma Sang was by her side, but the scene was no longer on the altar.

The surroundings are more like desert islands with no people, and the scenery is like a watered picture, sometimes clear and sometimes blurry.

"Son, follow me." Grandma Sang's eyes were blank, and she walked in front after speaking.

Yuan Qinqin followed.

Reaching out and touching the scenery around you, it melts as soon as you touch it, and your palm penetrates through it, as if you have touched cold water.

After walking for a short time, Yuan Qinqin suddenly found that Grandma Sang was gone, and there were those painting-like scenes in front of her.

"Mother-in-law! Mother-in-law, where are you? Mao Mao, Mao Mao! ”

"Kids. They're not here. "There is a beautiful voice coming from the space, indistinguishable between men and women, gentle and pleasant.

The picture in front of me seems to have been washed away by the current, and the colors have been lost and disappeared. It was white all around.

"Who are you?"

"You sensed the realm of the ancestors from the festival, and you sensed me." The sound came from all over the space, enveloping the three-dimensional.

"I'm the Great Witch who led my people here."

"I heard the prayers of the descendants and knew that they had found the Destiny Man. The Mandate of Heaven is the last hexagram I have for my clansmen, and the last hope for the people of the West. They think you're the Destiny of Heaven. ”

What the? What Destiny Man?

"Come"

"Come"

Where to come? Just as he was in doubt, a pair of transparent hands stretched out in the void and placed them in front of Yuan Qinqin, and the voice continued: "Come, come." "Filled with irresistible power.

Yuan Qinqin stood on the palms of his hands, and the giant hands suddenly closed again, and the huge pressure suddenly surged towards Yuan Qinqin, squeezing his heart and intestines.

"Ahh ――!! "There was a sudden emptiness under my feet.

The first half of her life flashed violently in front of her eyes, and the weightlessness of the rapid fall was terrifying, she seemed to be rolling in a time and space tunnel, and the weight had been with her, and all kinds of discomfort squeezed her to roll her eyes and vomit.

Outside the borders of the ancestors, the villagers looked up at the stone mirror on the altar, revealing an incredible expression.

The witch boy and the witch were still dancing, but Grandma Sang had already stopped chanting and looked straight at the stone mirror, the stone mirror was no longer the rough appearance it used to be, and the chubby Ah Qin stood in front of the mirror with her eyes closed, the mirror was as smooth as water, showing what she had encountered in the realm of the ancestors!

Yuan Qinqin traveled quickly in the time and space tunnel, and finally came to the night of her car accident. Stop it.

Yuan Qinqin barely opened her eyes, floating dizzily, looking at the picture in front of her.

The voice said, "This is the answer you want." ”

in the picture. At the moment when the two cars collided, a black dot suddenly appeared in front of Yuan Qinqin's car, which quickly expanded into a circle and swallowed up the fast-moving pickup truck.

At the same time, black circles appeared everywhere in the Yuanding Continent to varying degrees, and some beasts, items, and all kinds of things fell into the black circles.

The pickup van floated in the dark for some time, sucked away by some force.

Desert island in the west. A circle appeared in the middle of the phoenix nest peak, and several fierce beasts flew out of it, and Qi Qi occupied the stone pillar below nearby and built a big nest.

A fierce beast turned around and wanted to return to the black circle, and the exit of the black circle seemed to have some extremely terrifying weapon, which ruthlessly crushed it.

After a long time, Qiqi flew away, and a pickup truck was spit out without warning and stuck next to Qiqi's nest. At the same time, the black circle quickly turned into a black dot and suddenly disappeared.

The villagers' expressions were different, and their thoughts were even more firm, I don't know how the ominous-looking black circle came about, but it is true that the fierce beast and Yuan Qinqin came together.

Grandma Sang's face was gloomy.

After reading it, Yuan Qinqin didn't have time to think about it, the feeling of weightlessness and nausea that made her want to die came again, and she shouted to the ancestors for help: "Don't come again!" ――I already know!! Let me go back!! ”

The ancestor Dawu said calmly: "But I haven't seen the answer I want yet. Yuan Qinqin's side kept flashing, and the speed was so fast that it was like getting on a spaceship traveling at the speed of light, and she couldn't see anything clearly.

After a long time, Yuan Qinqin felt that she was about to faint, the fat on her body was constantly moving and deforming in high pressure and high speed, the fat was blown up like water waves, and Yuan Qinqin, who was tortured to the point of chaos, vomited herself.

The Great Witch who saw the void shook his head with disdain, and sighed after reading what he wanted to see.

"It's not you, it's not you." The gentleness in his tone was gone, and he was replaced by a cold arrogance.

Grandma Sang in front of the mirror is like being struck by lightning, what did the ancestors say? Not her? She thought that the person of destiny who was waiting for her was not Yuan Qinqin?

However, where can the current state of Enchanted Island continue? If this continues, will it be difficult for people to die in the West?

The villagers even looked like they had already known, how could this fat woman who was mixed with the fierce beast be the Mandate of Heaven that the ancestors said?

Can you see it clearly, the ancestors didn't admit her at all!

Yuan Qinqin's fat body in front of the mirror was shocked, and after opening his eyes, he immediately ran down the altar, holding on to the railing next to him and vomited. It's so uncomfortable, whether it's the disgusting experience or the brutal truth of not being able to go home. Gagged-vomited-.

People watched indifferently and began to talk nonsense.

Suddenly, I don't know who threw a stone at Yuan Qinqin.

"She brought the monster! She brought disaster! ”

Stones were thrown at her, "Kill her!" ”

"Send her to feed the sea monster!"

Mao Mao originally followed behind Yuan Qinqin, and after blocking a few stones for her, she finally turned around angrily and yelled at the crowd. Yuan Qinqin endured the discomfort and grabbed the fur of Mao Mao with her backhand and stopped it.

"Shoot her, kill her!" Ayeg shouted as the crowd shouted, he would never forgive the man who killed wormwood!
