Chapter 12: Catch the Adulterer and Adulteress
"Look! They're right there! ”
"Catch that adulterer and adulteress! The village chief said that they blasphemed the river god and would immediately arrest them and sacrifice to the sky! ”
A group of people with torches in their hands invaded this ambiguity full of disobedience like a flood beast, Yan Shunhua and Qu Luoer were tied up with hemp rope to prevent them from yelling and screaming in the middle of the night, and they also stuffed rags in their mouths.
It happened so suddenly, Yan Shunhua didn't have time to react until he was burned at the stake, what happened.
It only took half an hour for this group of villagers with fires to build two decent burners on the deserted mountains and mountains.
The action was so fast, Yan Shunhua had to sigh, the working people are really great, it would be better if they had a longer brain and could understand people's words.
"Mmmmmmmm Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm Mmmm
Yan Shunhua, who had a rag stuffed in his mouth, stretched out his head desperately to protest like a woodpecker.
The village chief's son scratched his scalp and called out to his father.
"Dad, he seems to have something to say."
"Maybe I want to go to the hut, it's okay, anyway, I'll burn to death later."
"Why don't you hear it first?"
With a wave of his hand, the old village chief vetoed his son's suggestion.
He insisted on saying: "Don't listen to it, this kind of wild mandarin duck, your father and I have seen a lot, forget it without a matchmaker, this time it also angered Lord River God, because of this pair of adulterers and adulteresses, several people in our village have contracted strange diseases." If we don't worship the heavens again, the people in our village won't think about it. ”
"Yes, yes, you should sacrifice to heaven right away."
The villagers were emotional, and they responded to the village chief's words, eager to light the fire immediately.
"But, what if, we wronged a good person?"
"Son, you are still too young, your father and I dare to say, they are wild mandarin ducks who have no matchmaker, if not, your father and I will immediately cut off my head and use it as a stool for you to sit on!"
After thinking about it repeatedly, the village chief's son was still afraid that he would kill the wrong good person, so he jumped on the stake despite the villagers' obstruction and pulled out the cloth from Qu Luoer's mouth.
Yan Shunhua saw that there was hope.
Qu Luo'er's face was full of tears, and she cried: "Why is Luo'er's life so bitter, it's not easy, it's not easy to escape, it's not easy to make a private agreement with Gongzi for life, and I'm going to be burned to death, Luo'er's life... It's really bitter! ”
Yan Shunhua was dumbfounded, what the hell are you talking about, how can there be, how can you have a private life! Where's it! However, she still couldn't say half a sentence clearly.
"Mmmmmmmmmm
The village chief's son frowned, as if he was wearing a green hat, glared at Yan Shunhua fiercely, and forcefully stuffed the rag back into Qu Luo'er's mouth.
The old village chief looked at his son from the stake triumphantly, put his arm on his arm and pretended to comfort: "Son, my father said that she is not the daughter of a serious family, and you don't believe it, she is a demon girl, this kind of indiscriminate woman, just use it to worship the sky." ”
After speaking, the old village chief turned his head and glanced at Qu Luoer meaningfully, Yan Shunhua was stunned, it was clearly the eyes of a murderer.
He was pretending to be a public servant at all, planning to take the opportunity to kill Qu Luoer.
The old village chief held a torch, looked at the people below, and shouted:
"Qujia Village has always been blessed by God in Luoshui City, everyone has food to eat, all of them are strong, this time the people in the village are unlucky and infected with a strange disease, all of them have to blame this unknown origin, bad character woman entered the village, ruined the feng shui of the whole village!"
"That's right, it's because of this evil spirit! He killed my grandson! An old woman squeezed forward from behind the crowd and threw a stone at Qu Luoer, whose face was stained with tears, and Qu Luoer closed her eyes in fear, intending to avoid the brutal lynching.
The ruthless old woman smashed a basket full of stones, smashing a white and tender face full of blood and desolation, and some people spat on Yan Shunhua and Qu Luoer during the period.
"Aunt Qu, the village chief knows that it is not easy for you, and he blamed me before, thinking that the Buddha was compassionate, so he chose this demon girl as the bride to marry the river god, and wanted her to atone for her sins."
The old village chief held his forehead, acted a heartache, pointed at Qu Luoer and scolded: "Who knows, this demon girl does not abide by women's morals, seduces wild men, and angers the river god, so, in order to calm the anger of the gods, today I Qu Decai will lead everyone to sacrifice to the sky!" Burn this adulterer and adulteress! ”
The villagers held torches high and shouted in unison: "Sacrifice to the sky!" Worship the sky! Worship the sky! ”
The voices of the people were boiling, and the flames were sensational.
It's too much, it's too much.
They actually rely on the eight characters of a woman for such things as birth, old age, sickness and death.
Yan Shunhua looked at the group of people below in disbelief, each of them had a raging fire and resentment in their eyes, and they were convinced that as long as the people on the stake were burned, they could make the sick people in the village heal without medicine.
This kind of fantasy.
Horror, a horror that makes people's hairs stand on end and shudder.
This group of extremist villagers has long since become a group of 'monsters' who help and abet on abuse.
The old village chief had already lit the firewood under the stake, and the slender dead branches burned quickly, and the fire spread downwind, and soon burned to Yan Shunhua's feet.
Scald! It's hot!
Seeing that his body was on fire, Yan Shunhua was so anxious that he jumped to his feet, desperately twisting his wrist to break free of the rope, but the knot was too tight, and his wrist had already worn out blood marks, and the rope still did not loosen for half a minute.
Oh my God, is she going to confess here?
Unjustly killed at the hands of this group of 'monsters' whose minds are dominated?
No, she can't die here.
She hasn't returned the color to the scumbag to the jade to the wind!
Yan Shunhua gritted her teeth in pain and secretly swore that if anyone could save her at this moment, she would listen to him from now on, and she would not dare to complain.
As soon as the poisonous oath was made, a thunderclap immediately fell from the sky.
With a bang, Yan Shunhua was blown up in smoke.
The villagers watched in amazement as Yan Shunhua bounced, flew over their heads in black pressure, and fell into the river with a thud.
Immediately, a downpour fell from the sky, extinguishing the fire at the stake.
This thunder cut the rope in time and saved Yan Shunhua and Qu Luoer.
Yan Shunhua climbed onto the shore with difficulty.
She raised her injured hand and threw away the dirty cloth that had been stuffed in her mouth, and stood up in the heavy rain, looking fiercely at the ignorant villagers.
God help me, okay, God will listen to you in the future.
The next second, she looked up to the sky and laughed, like crazy.
Hahaha, you shouldn't die, dare to offend her, you are doomed.
"It's over, God is angry. He will not accept our sacrifices, and the village will be finished! It's going to be over!" The villagers fell to their knees and wept bitterly, as if the end had come.
Yan Shunhua walked over, looked coldly at the group of villagers who were kneeling down to the sky, crying bitterly, and walked straight to Qu Luo'er's direction, and she helped Qu Luo'er up.
Yan Shunhua stretched out her hand to pull Qu Luoer's hair, looking at these big closed eyes, how smart and beautiful they should be, how white and lovely these eyebrow bones should be, but because of such a group of ignorant and vicious people, her appearance was ruined like this.
A good girl's house, full of desolation and bloodstains.
"You have indeed offended God." She said coldly.
Everyone was stunned and looked up at her one after another, at this time the rain weakened, Yan Shunhua's eyes were cold and piercing, as if possessed by ghosts and gods, and the momentum was amazing.
"You... What does this adulterer mean? The old village chief was suddenly a little frightened.
"Village chief, did you say that this adulterer was possessed by some heavenly soldier and general?"
"Quite possibly." The eldest lady who had just thrown the stone hurriedly climbed up to Yan Shunhua and bowed, "Save you, save my grandson." He was only seven years old, and he was killed by this demon girl, and he really died so miserably. ”
Yan Shunhua clenched her fists, her nails were about to sink into the flesh, and she resisted the urge to hit someone.
She asked rhetorically, "Do you know why the sacrifice to the heavens is not successful?" ”
"Why?"
The villagers looked at Yan Shunhua one after another, wanting to burn her to death one second ago, but listening to her attentively this second.
Yan Shunhua raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said in a flickering voice: "It's because you found the wrong sacrifice. Do you think God will accept a pair of wild mandarin ducks who have no matchmaker? What did you take it for? What did you think of God? ”
"So, what should we do? Ask Daxian for advice! They were like a flock of lost lambs, looking at Yan Shunhua innocently.
I've taken the bait, and I'm going to close the net.
Yan Shunhua stood up and looked at the village chief meaningfully, and every word in his mouth made the village chief creepy.
"You should sacrifice the most virtuous and respectable people, such as this 'righteous and awe-inspiring', 'righteous and selfless' village chief, Qu Decai, and so on."
The old village chief was stunned for a moment, and immediately became angry.
"What nonsense are you talking about! Don't listen to his nonsense, he is an adulterer who has been bewitched by a demon girl, and what he says cannot be trusted. ”
Yan Shunhua immediately retorted: "What is not credible, isn't this obviously that God is not satisfied with the sacrifice?" The reason why the thunder came down just now is to wake you up, who will make the sacrifice to calm the wrath of the gods! ”
Originally, the villagers' minds were still a little wavering, but when they remembered the thunder that had just split Yan Shunhua into the air, they believed everything they said, and immediately turned against each other and set their eyes on the village chief.
Yan Shunhua held back the smile on the corner of her mouth, she knew very well that the more short-sighted people were, the easier it was to be bewitched.
Didn't the old village chief do this before?
In order to make his son die, he can even do such a thing as killing people with a knife!
What a bastard!
However, it just so happened that when she Yan Shunhua was doing business, she never cared about what means or not, this time she will not die, and she will not give you a big gift, how dare she call Yan Shunhua!
stared at the old village chief one by one, and his stubborn eyes seemed to say-as long as the rain stopped, I will take you to sacrifice to the sky.
The old village chief trembled at him, and his speech was not neat.
"You guys aren't really... Crazy, all crazy! You're all crazy! Actually hit the idea of the village chief, he was lying, that thunder must be... Definitely..."
