Jiang Cheng Taishou was so close to Yu Hopeless, so he naturally noticed that something was wrong with him for the first time, and asked with concern: "Master Guoshi, are you okay?" But what's the discomfort in your body? ”

"No, I'm fine." Yu Wuwang glanced in the direction where the woman was, and said with a complicated expression, "I just think that woman and one of my ....... The benefactor, yes, looks a little like her, but wonders if it's her. "A person like Luo Lian'er should be recuperating in Luo Cheng at this time, how could he run outside?

Jade is hopeless and suspicious that she is thinking too much.

But Jiang Cheng Taishou didn't think so, and frowned and felt that things were not simple: "Let's come today, the main purpose is to destroy this river god sacrifice, anyway, whoever is saved is saved, sooner or later, it is better to start now, so as not to suffer too much pain for that girl." ”

Seeing that the elixir in the old woman's hand was about to be fed to her mouth.

Yu Wuwang had never seen this kind of scene before, and it was normal not to know the inside story, but Jiangcheng Taishou had seen it.

A long time ago, when he first came to Jiangcheng to be a taishou, he had seen this kind of scene, the elixir in the old woman's hand was by no means a good thing, once she fed the elixir to her mouth, soon, the girl who took the elixir would completely lose consciousness, turn into a puddle of soft mud, and lose all her vitality.

If you want to save someone, you must rush before the other party feeds the medicine.

Jade nodded hopelessly, and the flare hidden inside the sleeve was removed.

With a strange sound, fireworks rose and exploded in the sky, the colorful shapes were inconspicuous during the day, but enough to make the soldiers who had been in ambush for a long time aware of the situation.

"The signal of the National Teacher is coming, brothers, hurry up!"

The crowd streamed out of their hiding place.

On the other side, the crowd of onlookers on the riverbank didn't know what was going on, and when they saw the fireworks in the sky, they thought that someone had lit the fireworks in advance, after all, the river god festival was also going to set off fireworks, maybe someone accidentally lit the fireworks, causing such an accident. Most people didn't take it to heart, except for a small number of people who frowned tightly and sensed that something was wrong.

"There weren't so many moths at the River God Festival in previous years, so what's going on this year? First, the mother-in-law's own granddaughter ran to the river god festival to make trouble, wanting to change the candidates for the living sacrifice without authorization, and then there were fireworks and fireworks! This kind of small mistake would never have happened before! ”

"You're right, alas, so many things are piled up, will it make the river god unhappy? In case we don't have a good weather here next year....... I don't know how many people will die! ”

There has been no chaos in the past few years, the wind and rain are smooth, and there are many people who are hungry and cold in the local area.

While the faces were sad, the old woman sensed that something was wrong.

Although she was old, her eyes had never been cloudy, and when her gaze swept over the crowd, she recognized at a glance the two people in disguise and hidden in the crowd.

The old woman's eyes narrowed slightly, and her hand holding the pill pressed a little harder.

"Isn't this Taishou-sama?"

In the local area, the people in charge of presiding over the river god festival are all skillfully selected, this mother-in-law has been presiding over the river god festival for many years, and she has long been mixed with Taishou with a mature face, and when she saw it from afar, she recognized it. Don't look at her expression unchanged at this time, as if she didn't mean to panic at all, in fact, she was very flustered.

The young man standing next to Jiang Cheng Taishou, she also saw it, even if this person was wearing ordinary clothes and standing in the crowd without saying anything, he still had a bearing, like standing out from the crowd, so that people could know at a glance that he had an extraordinary background.

Thinking of the big man in Jiangcheng, cold sweat slipped down the corner of the old woman's forehead: "What kind of wind actually blew you here too?" ”

Hearing the words of Lord Taishou, all the onlookers changed their faces.

In previous years, there were three or four times that the river god sacrifice was destroyed by Jiangcheng Taishou, although they used some means later, and barely completed the ceremony, but it also took a lot of effort in the middle, more things are better than less things, no one is looking forward to Jiangcheng Taishou. It's really strange, I didn't see him ask two days ago, why did he suddenly ........ this year

Just when everyone was confused, those officers and soldiers who were in ambush were finally killed.

Unlike the officers and soldiers transferred by Jiangcheng Taishou before, most of these people were born in military camps, and they had fought on the battlefield, and they had a murderous aura on their bodies, not only that, but the weapons they held in their hands were also polished, as if they were really going to the battlefield in the next moment, and even their faces were illuminated.

Most of the people present are ordinary people, and the biggest scene they have ever seen is a fight with their bare hands, where have they ever seen this kind of scene?

In an instant, his face turned white, and he knelt on the ground: "Meet Lord Taishou!" ”

Among the crowd, only the old woman, and Miss Luo, who was blindfolded and tied her hands behind her back, did not kneel.

"What's going on?" Miss Luo vaguely heard the movement and asked in surprise.

The old woman whispered, "Something that may or may not make you happy." I'm afraid you won't die today. ”

Miss Luo was silent.

How can anyone in the world be willing to die? But whenever there is another choice, she wants to live, and when she heard people shouting Lord Taishou, Miss Luo's heart moved, did she still have life?

Without waiting for her to be happy for herself, she heard the old lady beside her say gloomily: "It's not that this kind of thing hasn't happened before, generally after Lord Taishou stirs up the situation, he will bring our living sacrifices back to the transfer, and in less than two months, they will be released again, those girls have nowhere to go, and in the end they will die for Lord River God, but you are different, that is, the government has released you, and you don't have to go back to this small village again, it can be regarded as picking up a life." It's a pity that my hapless granddaughter still has to die. ”

Miss Luo's heart sank suddenly: "Does the sacrifice have to be completed?" That's your own granddaughter. ”

The old woman smiled, and a strange light flashed in her eyes: "Of course I know that she is my own granddaughter, but what can I do?" This child has been cultivated by me as the next sacrifice since she was a child, just hoping that the river god will not take a fancy to her, so that she can grow up peacefully, what is the result? In the end, didn't the fortune teller figure her out? Since the river god wants her, what else can I say? ”

"You're all some unreasonable lunatic......."

The old woman smiled again and said with emotion: "When I first saw you, I knew that you were not an ordinary person, but now that I have experienced so many things, I feel more and more that you are a noble lady." Something like yours, I'm afraid you haven't suffered from us, right? Here, a family of three or four people, all have to live on the thin fields at home, there is no silver at all, if there is a drought or flood on any day, there is no harvest of grain, we have to starve, from childhood to adulthood, I don't know how many people have seen starvation, only the river god blesses, so that we can have food and clothing. “

Miss Luo sneered coldly: "River God River God, you know the River God every day, have you seen the River God himself or what?" ”

The old woman didn't say much to her this time, but just hid the person behind her with a smile, and faced Yu Hopeless and Jiangcheng Taishou who were slowly walking towards this place.

"Lord Taishou, you shouldn't be in charge of this matter."

Jiang Cheng raised his eyebrows: "This official is Jiang Cheng's parent official, can't he even take care of the matter of people's lives?" Where in the world is there such a truth? ”

"Lord Taishou, you misunderstood, this river god sacrifice is not a grass mustard at all, everything is all voluntary by people, right, Miss Luo?"

Miss Luo gritted her teeth and straightened her waist: "Yes, I volunteered." ”

Like many women who died because of the river god sacrifice in the past, Miss Luo also had a weakness that was pinched in the hands of the old woman. On that day, she got out of the carriage after escaping from Luocheng, and the coachman wanted to send her to Luocheng according to Gong Ao's instructions, but she was unwilling, for fear of leaving clues at that time.

She wanted to walk into the city, but fainted on the side of the road because of her health, but fortunately someone passed by at that time and saved her life.

In addition to her father and mother, Man Man is the best person for her, Luo Lian'er thought, anyway, her life is not long, sooner or later there is only one way to die, it is better to die instead of Man Man, so that Man Man can live according to the lifestyle he wants in the future.

Although there was a little regret in her heart, Luo Lian'er was indeed willing.

She was blindfolded by a black cloth, and she didn't know that at this moment, someone's eyes were glued to her body.

Yu Hopeless's brows twisted into a Sichuan character, and said softly: "Are you really willing to die?" ”

This voice is!

Luo Lian'er is dreaming, and she has dreamed of this voice countless times, she will always remember that the owner of the voice has a handsome face, and she also remembers what the owner of the voice once said to herself. When she was seriously ill, she couldn't hold it several times, but it was this voice that inspired her and pulled her back from the ghost gate.

She also thought that she would never have a hopeless chance to see Jade again, but she never expected that she would meet here!

The heart was beating in the chest, thumping like a drum, and Luo Lian'er's originally pale face was flushed: "Yes, is it the National Teacher?" ”

Yu Hopeless agreed sullenly.

This time, the shocked person became Jiang Cheng Taishou, and the old woman on the side, especially the latter, even if she wanted to break her head, she couldn't have thought that this girl who was staying at her house was actually involved with the national teacher, and she could recognize the appearance of a person just by listening to her voice, I am afraid it is quite familiar.

What a disaster!

The old woman's face was like ashes, but she tried to pretend to be calm: "The old woman visits the national teacher." ”

As soon as the four words of the national teacher came out, the people around him exploded, especially the person who was standing beside Yu Wuwang just now, and his eyes widened.
