"Staying in the house and leaving you alone to die?"

Ye Xiaoyu smiled bitterly.

"At least you'll survive......"

Yabu said.

As it is now, two people are all tied to this pillar, which is the worst of all situations.

"Okay, okay, anyway, it's already like this, let's think about how to save our lives now, right?"

Ye Xiaoyu didn't want to worry about this with him anymore, the most important thing for them at the moment should be to find a way to see if they could escape.

"This is a vine in the mountains, and the more you struggle, the tighter it shrinks."

Yabu saw that Ye Xiaoyu wanted to struggle, so he said to her.

"What then? You can't really die like this, can you? ”

Ye Xiaoyu began to feel a little melancholy.

She came all the way here, and she hadn't seen the legendary Aba Beike yet, and she died inexplicably in an unknown village in the mountains?

Yabu didn't answer, silently looking ahead.

In this case, unless it is sunny and they suddenly appear, the probability of being able to escape is almost zero.

*

A platform had been erected in front of the temple and the offerings had been prepared, and the woman put on a robe embroidered with all sorts of strange patterns, and began to dance there with words in her mouth.

Even if she was not familiar with the customs here, Ye Xiaoyu knew that as soon as the mountain woman finished reading, she was about to send the two of them down.

All she had tied to her body was a tree vine, but the dagger in her hand was snatched away, and the whole person was tied in mid-air. I can't use my strength at all, so I can only frown and hurry.

"Xiaoyu, I ......"

Yabu turned his head and looked at Ye Xiaoyu, the expression on his face changed instantly.

At the beginning, he saved people out of good intentions, but he didn't expect it to evolve into what he is now, rescued Ye Xiaoyu, and then pushed her into an even more tragic situation.

"Yabu, don't blame yourself, I am the one who really blames yourself. If it weren't for me. You won't be tied up here. ”

Ye Xiaoyu knew that the people around her were full of self-blame.

But he didn't have to blame himself at all.

The one who really needs to blame himself. It's the ignorant villagers.

"If I really can't escape, I don't regret it, being able to know you is a very worthwhile thing in itself."

She was telling the truth. Jabu saved her. But now it's because of her. Tied to the edge of a cliff. He was about to face the doom of death, and his life was not supposed to be like this. Ye Xiaoyu thought about the picture when he first met, and Yabu's face was shining brightly at that time.

"I'm sorry ......"

Thinking about it. Tears couldn't help but fall.

"Xiaoyu ......"

When Yabu saw Ye Xiaoyu crying, he began to feel a little at a loss.

But his hands were all tied to the pillars, and he could only turn his head to look at her.

"It's none of your business. I have been considered a close friend since I was a child, and even if you don't come, they will still come to me for other reasons, and they will still take me to sacrifice to the mountain gods. I was mentally prepared for this a long time ago. ”

"But this time, I feel very lucky to have met you, to know so much about the outside world, so that even if I can never go out in my life, I am better than most people in the village, at least I know some things outside, at least I know you, at least I know that not everyone sees me as a monster."

Jabu laughed, a big smile, just like the day they first met.

"No, there will definitely be a way, we will definitely get out. When we go out, we can travel around the Great Cause Country, and we can see whatever you want at that time......"

Ye Xiaoyu said while crying.

She can't let Yabu die here like this, she must find a way, she must be able to.

"The auspicious time has come, and the door of the temple of Jebdorah has been opened-!!"

The mountain woman shouted towards the cliff.

The stove around her suddenly burst into flames.

Villagers dressed in strange clothes began to gather around from the side, beating drums, singing incomprehensible mountain songs, and dancing inexplicably and wonderfully, as if they were bidding farewell and celebrating.

Suddenly, the drumming stopped, and all the people who had been dancing stood still.

Ye Xiaoyu began to have a bad premonition in her heart.

"Ask the most loyal guards in the temple to come up—"

Standing on a high wooden platform, she waved the wooden sword in her hand and began to give orders.

The words fell, and two shirtless and tall strong men came up. The two of them walked up to Ye Xiaoyu and stood still, each scribbling something on their hands, as if they were preparing to remove the plank.

"Ahhh!!h - Lord Jebdorah has appeared, right behind you! ”

Ye Xiaoyu's gaze fell behind the mountain woman, and she shouted in horror.

Now this situation can only drag on for a while.

When everyone heard this, they quickly turned their heads to look.

Even the mountain woman glanced back a little suspiciously.

Of course, there is nothing behind it.

"Didn't you see Lord Jebdorah?! Oh yes, only the most pious can see it! ”

Ye Xiaoyu continued with a smug face.

"Guard, shut the mouths of both of them. Too much time has been wasted, and the adults are going to be angry. ”

The mountain woman raised her hands to the sky, closed her eyes for a moment, and then said coldly.

A ball of linen cloth was stuffed into his mouth, and then, Ye Xiaoyu could only make a sound similar to "hmm".

The sky is clear, and the fierce sunlight makes people a little dizzy.

The surroundings were quiet, and they waited for the mountain woman to give an order.

"The auspicious time has come, and the two destined ones will be sent to the temple of Lord Jebdorah—"

The mountain woman stood on a high wooden platform, waving the wooden sword in her hand.

As soon as the words fell, flames were ignited again in the four furnaces in front of the mountain temple.

The scene suddenly became solemn.

Two shirtless strong men standing on the edge of the pillar, after receiving the order. Grasp the axe in your hand, bend over, and prepare to smash the plank open.

Originally, the sacrificial mountain gods were all virgins and girls, and the weight was light, so the wooden planks could be taken away lightly, but this time there were two adult adults tied to it, and it was impossible to pull the wooden planks apart by manpower alone, so the two big men took axes and directly smashed the wooden planks laid underneath into pieces. As soon as the plank is smashed open. Those two pillars lost their support. In an instant, the person tied to it will fall directly into the cliff at the fastest speed.

The strong man raised his axe and slashed at the plank underneath.

Ye Xiaoyu's face was full of horror. In a panic, he looked at Yabu beside him. He was found to be unusually calm. It seems that he has made preparations to see death as home.

Rumble.

The plank was smashed through a hole.

Yabu's pillar suddenly tilted, and Ye Xiaoyu's eyes widened in fright, but he had sackcloth stuffed in his mouth. She could only let out a muffled wail.

But the people around him were much calmer, and Yabu looked ahead expressionlessly, as if the one around him had nothing to do with him.

This look is simply the second sunny.

But if it was really sunny, looking at the people around him, Ye Xiaoyu thought silently in his heart, if it was sunny here, there would definitely be a way to get rid of the vines tied to his body, but unfortunately, the person next to him just had the same face as him, he was not sunny.

Rumble.

Again.

The pillar on Yabu's side was about to fall down completely, and Ye Xiaoyu's was not much better, and began to crumble.

A small pebble tumbled down the edge of the cliff, as if it had fallen into a bottomless pit, silently, without a sound at all.

Ye Xiaoyu began to gasp, for an ordinary person, in the face of such a scene, it is absolutely false to say that he is not afraid of death. Her body had begun to tremble unconsciously, and the only thing she could pray for was to let her die faster and less painfully when she fell into the cliff.

The guard raised his axe and looked like he was about to slash a third time.

The pillar on Yabu's side was completely unsupportable, and if he knocked it down for the third time, the pillar would definitely fall into the cliff with him. Of course, once Yabu falls, Ye Xiaoyu's side will lose balance, and naturally he will not be spared.

Just as the axe was about to be cut down, the pillar that tied Yabu shook a little, and then before the axe fell, one end of the pillar fell inward on the edge of the cliff, and the other person took the pillar and lay between the plank and the mountain wall, and the vines tied to the body were somewhat loosened by the impact of external forces, and Yabu took the opportunity to pull out one hand.

Due to the loss of balance, Ye Xiaoyu also fell to Yabu's side with the pillar, and the whole person's posture changed from standing to lying down. The whole person was hanging at the bottom of the pillar, and there was an abyss behind her, but fortunately, the vines on her body were tied strong enough, so that she would not fall directly.

There was a mess around, and the wooden planks laid under it had been almost smashed, if it weren't for the pillar suddenly falling horizontally, Ye Xiaoyu and Yabu would have already been sent to the "Mountain God's Palace".

There was an accident with the mountain god's offering, and everyone began to worry, and they didn't send it to him at the agreed time, so what if the mountain god got angry?

"Xiaoyu, don't move first, I'll untie the vine on your body now, after it is loosened, you first pull out your hand and hold the pillar tightly, now they are in a panic, you take the opportunity to run away later......"

Yabu lowered his voice and said quickly.

"What about you?"

Ye Xiaoyu frowned.

Not to mention whether she can do such a method, even if it is feasible, she can't leave him alone.

"After climbing to the edge of the cliff, run to the mountain temple and take away a small stone statue that was placed in the middle of the offering table, and make it look like it is going to be smashed, and the group will be in a mess. I can take the opportunity to escape. ”

Yabu was unusually calm.

"You didn't lie to me?"

Ye Xiaoyu didn't believe it.

"Hold on."

Jabu laughed.

"Why am I lying to you, I still want to go out with you."

The sun was shining brightly and dazzling.

Looking at the smiles of the people around him, Ye Xiaoyu really wanted to take him outside to have a look, but in this situation, it wasn't for her Ye Xiaoyu to be negative, could the two of them really escape? (To be continued......)
