Chapter 57: The Secret of the Hidden Village

It was impossible for Situ Chengfeng's cultivation to not perceive such a big movement, but he didn't react at all, and still led the villagers towards the altar.

"What is it about the altar that is more important than your lives?"

After thinking about it for a while, Fang Zhen also chased after him, he wanted to see what kind of medicine was sold in Situ Chengfeng's gourd, but then again, even if he wanted to pat his ass and leave, it would be impossible.

Because the entrance of the village has been occupied by the army of demon beasts, if you go out rashly at this time, it is no different from sending you to death.

With the lesson of the last time, Fang Zhen didn't dare to blatantly follow him anymore, but took back all the true yuan of his body to the dantian, trying not to emit a little breath, coupled with the help of the Dao Ring, even Situ Chengfeng couldn't feel that he was following.

And just yesterday, the altar had just been blown out by the demon wind, but at this time it had already been re-erected, and everyone was still praying around the altar, but only Situ Chengfeng was gone.

About half a pillar of incense passed, Situ Chengfeng finally appeared, at this time he had already changed into white clothes, his hair was also wet, and it seemed that he had just finished bathing.

When he returned, the villagers wept out in grief, and several even fainted.

Glancing around, Situ Chengfeng also smiled slightly, and said: "The old man has killed countless people in his life, and he should have died more than ten years ago, and now let the old man live for so long, and he can do a good deed before he dies, it can be regarded as getting what he wants, you don't need to be sad for the old man." ”

It's okay if he doesn't say it, but as soon as he finished speaking, everyone cried even more sadly.

Fang Zhen was also a little confused. Because in his opinion, although the demon beasts outside are powerful, with Situ's ability to ride the wind, it is not difficult to get out. But listening to the tone of his voice, it seems that he is explaining his last words!

Before he could figure out what was going on, he heard someone shout, "Elder, you are not from our Hidden Village, and no matter how you turn this matter, it will not be your turn to bear it." ”

It was none other than Yunhu, who had just woken up.

At this time, he also had a sad face, but he had a little calmness, and as he spoke, the person had already rushed to the altar and lay directly on the tribute table.

Seeing his actions, Fang Zhen's pupils also shrank, because he clearly remembered that there was a pig lying on the table yesterday that had been washed and peeled clean.

Glancing at the crying crowd again, Fang Zhen suddenly understood what was going on.

These people actually want to sacrifice the so-called tree god with living people!

Thinking of this, Fang Zhen couldn't help but shudder.

Although these people are acting strangely, the use of human sacrifice is still a bit too unbelievable.

Just thinking about it, he heard Situ Chengfeng shake his head and said: "The old man has lived here for more than ten years, and he can't step out of the Yuan Beast Mountain Range, and he is already a person from Yinyi Village, not to mention that you are still young, with your martial artist Sevenfold Heaven cultivation, how can the Tree God Niangniang look down on you?"

Hearing this, Yunhu knelt on the ground with a puff, and couldn't even say a word after whimpering for a long time.

Situ Chengfeng stroked the top of his head, his face was full of kindness, and he couldn't see the slightest fear before death.

He didn't say anything, and after reading the sacrificial text, he lay down on the tribute table, and soon the demonic wind came again.

After seeing Situ Chengfeng on the tribute table, it seemed to be extremely satisfied, and instantly turned into a bloody mouth and swooped down.

Seeing that Situ Chengfeng was about to be devoured, Fang Zhen did not hesitate any longer, almost used up the true yuan of his whole body, and beat the mountain breaking fist out.

The three fist shadows intertwined with each other, intertwining with each other, and instantly dispersed the demon wind.

I don't know if it's an illusion, Fang Jie clearly heard a sneer from the demon wind.

Situ Chengfeng was also stunned, and then jumped up violently, and with a sweep of his divine sense, his eyes directly locked on the hiding place of Fang Zhen.

"It's you kid again!"

The green tendons on Situ Chengfeng's neck burst out, like a beast that wants to choose people to devour.

"The seniors are not impatient. ”

Fang Zhen raised his hand and walked out, and said word by word: "The eldest husband should have a useful body to plan for great things, how can he be so suspidant?"

These words were originally used by Situ Chengfeng to teach Yunhu a lesson, but they were returned by Fang Zhen intact.

"You know what ......"

Before Situ Chengfeng's words were finished, the sound of houses collapsing could be heard in the distance, and when he looked up, he saw an overwhelming black cloud sweeping towards this side, obviously a demon beast had attacked the village.

Situ Chengfeng didn't have time to blame Fang Scar anymore, and unwillingly glanced at the direction in which the demon wind disappeared, and then hurriedly commanded the villagers to retreat to another place.

Fortunately, on the high wall at the entrance of the village, the trap played some role, blocking all the relatively large monsters outside, and only some smaller monsters jumped in first, so they were not afraid in a short time.

It wasn't until after ensuring that everyone was safely transferred that Situ Chengfeng came to Fang Zhen's front and said in an unkind tone: "Do you know how much trouble you just caused?"

Fang Zhen shook his head and said, "I don't know if I broke into trouble or not, the juniors only know that if I don't do it just now, the seniors will die in vain." ”

"Be smart!"

Situ Chengfeng glanced at him and said, "If I die, I can save hundreds of lives in the village, why not?"

Fang Zhen said: "The predecessors only know that the tree god has the ability to keep a village safe, but how can they ensure that it will keep its promise?"

Hearing this, Situ Chengfeng was also speechless, because just yesterday, they had just made a living sacrifice and sacrificed the patriarch, but the tree god didn't know why, and he didn't help after that.

He wanted to do it again, but at this time, his body couldn't help but shake after being reminded by Fang Zhen, and it took a while to calm down, and said, "Do you remember the question that the old man asked you yesterday?"

Fang Zhen didn't know why he asked this, but he still nodded and said, "The senior asked the junior yesterday if he felt anything strange in the village, and the junior replied that there were no old people in the village. ”

Situ Chengfeng nodded and said, "Yes! Although this place is located in the hinterland of the Yuan Beast Mountain Range, it is full of dangers, but it is also beautiful and lucky, so there are not a few people who live a long life." ”

"Could it be ......" Fang Zhen seemed to guess something.

"Yes, every time the day of the beast tide, they are willing to sacrifice their lives to the tree god, more than ten years have passed, so it has become the situation now, not only the old people in the village, the elders, but also the patriarchs of the previous generation, the elders of the previous generation are so sacrificed. ”

Hearing this, Fang Zhen was even more shocked in his heart, he could never have imagined that so many people would be willing to believe in that unsafe legend and sacrifice their lives in vain.

It wasn't until this time that Fang Zhen understood why Situ Chengfeng's face was so sad when he mentioned the old man in the village yesterday.

Also, the night before yesterday, he obviously heard Xiao You and Yun Fei mention the "patriarch" in the conversation, but he had never seen this person in this day, presumably he should have climbed the altar after the three of them left yesterday and volunteered to sacrifice alive.

"Alas!"

Fang Zhen sighed heartily!

"There are no sacrifices in the world, but you people who are open-minded and pretend to be sincere!"

Situ was stunned for a moment and was silent.
