readx; "Don't make any trouble, if you make any more trouble, the ancient patriarch will send someone to arrest you and sacrifice to the lake!" The elder said solemnly to the naughty juniors, and the child immediately quieted down. The elders of the pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info blew out the lamp and got a piece of cleanliness.

"Patriarch, spare him, he doesn't dare...... I really don't dare! ”

Men or women, elderly or middle-aged people and even children have bloodshot whites of their eyes and haggard faces

was pulled by the crowd, struggling and crying......

These are the two most common scenes in Wujiang County a hundred years ago. It symbolizes a cruel system - human sacrifice.

There is a lake god in Biyue Lake, which is firmly believed by the people of Wujiang, and for the benefit of everyone, everyone does not feel that there is anything wrong with this system. It's just that every time the sacrifice quota falls on themselves and their relatives, they can experience the cruelty. They are in pain and despair, but they do not resist.

Until one of them appeared.

His name is Mo.

"Why do you want to sink your mother into the lake...... There's nothing wrong with motherhood. ”

"My Gu family has always been able to stand in this position because of justice. If she violates the rules of the clan, no one can save her, but let the lake god wash away her sins. ”

"Obviously there is no so-called lake god, obviously there is not-"

"Smack-"

"Shut up!"

"Even if you kill me, you can't change that fact."

The moment Mo was locked in the room, he shouted through the window: "Mother doesn't deserve to die, I hate you!" ”

One day more than a hundred years ago, Mo's mother, the wife of the head of the ancient family, was sunk in the lake because of a small mistake.

Since then, Mo has changed from a lively and active boy to a taciturn loner. Mo is a once-in-a-century genius who learns faster than other children from an early age.

There was no lake god in Biyue Lake, and he knew this very well, so he could never forgive his father.

It wasn't until later that he became the head of the Gu family. I know the secrets of Wujiang County's isolation and the responsibilities of the ancient family.

Wujiang County has been preserved for thousands of years. During this period, the wars of the change of dynasties, the plagues, earthquakes, floods, and food disasters that broke out every once in a while could not be harmed here. Wujiang County is protected by a mysterious force, and its wind and rain are smooth, and it can even be isolated from the world not only because of the natural danger, but also because it is protected by this mysterious force.

This mysterious power is the power of Biyue Lake. People believe that this power was given to them by the lake god, but there is no lake god in Biyue Lake at all, and some are just resentful spirits. The wraiths gave the Kirijiang the power to protect, and the Kirijiang people used their souls to make offerings. The more sinful the soul, the more the spirits like it. The people of Wujiang believe that this is to let the lake god wash away the sins of sinners, so as to transform it into a divine power to protect Wujiang.

Mo knew the inside story at a very young age, so he hated, hated his father's selfishness, hated his father's lies, hated him for cruelly letting an innocent, pure and kind person like his mother go up in smoke!

Until he discovers that even these so-called truths are just a cover.

Biyue Lake is indeed supported by resentful spirits, but the purpose of offering resentful spirits is not to obtain the power of Biyue Lake.

In this world, the demon world and the human world are connected. There are several entrances to the Demon Realm hidden in this vast land, and there is exactly one in Wujiang County, and that one is at the bottom of Biyue Lake. Wujiang County has buried this secret for thousands of years, and has shouldered the responsibility of suppressing demonic qi for thousands of years. In order not to hurt other people, and in order to better suppress the demonic qi, Wujiang County began to isolate itself from the world, and adopted the method of human sacrifice to appease the demonic qi.

This method has lasted for thousands of years and has proven to be very effective. But it also comes with a number of side effects. For thousands of years, too many resentful spirits had accumulated in Biyue Lake, and after their concentration became higher and higher, a huge power was generated, a new evil force. This power devours the soul, and as the power grows, so does the need for the soul. Later, the Gu family realized that the demonic qi was not appeased by human sacrifice at all, but was suppressed by the power of resentful spirits. Once the supply of human sacrifices is insufficient, the two forces will be unbalanced, and the demonic energy will leak out.

After Mo knew this, he was shocked and finally forgave his father. He finally understood that what his father said about the position of the ancient family was never power, but the responsibility of pressing people. But my father was wrong in one sentence, he said that he had no choice but to sacrifice.

This is a bottomless pit, and if it continues, the power of Biyue Lake's resentful spirits will inevitably overflow. On that day, the resentful spirits and the demon army attacked the world at the same time, and the world will be devastated, and there will be no peace!

No other way? No! Mo made a choice, he rummaged through the ancient books, used his talent to cultivate the magic for ten years, and when he reached the day of his completion, he threw himself into the lake, and used his soul instead of human sacrifice to suppress the demonic qi, at the cost of eternal life and never being able to leave!

……

Maybe it's a person's world that is too lonely, although Xiao Gu Ling and Mo have an unpleasant first acquaintance. But Xiao Guling seemed to have overcome his fear of Biyue Lake in an instant, and began to run to Biyue Lake every day, rain or shine. Even if she goes every time, she just sits by the big rock angrily and does her own thing, and does not interfere with the same cold ink.

Until one day, things started to turn. Xiao Gu Ling brought food to eat next to the big stone, and Mo suddenly said, "I'm hungry." ”

I don't know if Mo is too lonely and deliberately looking for words, or if he is really tempted by food. In short, the acquaintance between them began.

At that time, Gu Ling was eating steamed buns, and when she heard the voice, she looked up in surprise, and after seeing this fairy-like figure staring at the buns in her hand, she was so shocked that even the buns stuffed into her mouth rolled out. Immediately, she glanced at him: "This is mine." ”

"I'm hungry."

"You're a starving ghost?!"

"It's not."

"Then why are you hungry?"

"Won't ghosts go hungry?"

"I haven't been, how do I know." Xiao Gu Ling said, "But the ghosts I knew before are not hungry. ”

"How can they feel hungry when they are in a hurry to be reincarnated." Mo said, his expression was indifferent as if he did not eat fireworks in the world, but the topics discussed were very down-to-earth. It's true that the ghost's stomach doesn't go hungry, but it's the taste buds that he is hungry for.

Xiao Guling finally threw a bun to him regardless of his previous suspicions. But he didn't take it, and when the bun touched his body, it didn't want to burst out like a small stone, it passed directly through his body and fell into the water.

Mo said, "The only thing a ghost can eat is a sacrifice, and you must first burn incense and name me." ”

Gu Ling burned incense. Mo reached out and took one out of his hand at the bun, and really grabbed out a translucent thing, which looked exactly like a sacrifice.

After this exchange, the two equally lonely people slowly became acquainted.

Sitting at Biyue Lake for a few hours every day has become a must-have for Gu Ling. Sometimes, she could see the little boy lying on the rocks basking in the sun, and when she talked to him, he would say a few words. Sometimes, he doesn't come out to see her. Even so, he and her gradually became familiar. Every night, Gu Ling's most longing thing became dawn.

Until one day, Gu Ling knew the word water ghost.
