Then Yuan Muye followed behind Xiao Lin, walked out of the village from another path, and walked straight in the direction of Luoxia Peak. On the way, Xiao Lin told Yuan Muye that he was right to go out to find a doctor, but he didn't come back to pick up his father.

Yuan Muye was surprised when he heard this, and said, "Where did Uncle Lin go?" ”

"He was sent up the mountain as a sacrifice by the villagers...... Xiao Lin said with a resentful expression.

"What? How so? This situation made Yuan Muye a little unexpected, this was very different from what Amu said, so that he didn't know who to believe for a while.

After hearing this, Xiao Lin snorted coldly, "Many years ago, our village worshipped the gods of the mountains for generations to pray for the protection of the gods, but just a few years ago, in order to go out to earn money, the people in the village beat the gods of the village to death, abandoning the faith of their ancestors, and finally the whole village suffered retribution together!" ”

"Didn't the oracle die in an accident?" Yuan Muye said in surprise.

Xiao Lin shook his head and said, "That's just a rhetoric to the outside world, in fact, the divine envoy wanted to prevent the believers in the village from leaving the village, so they were collectively killed by the red-eyed villagers." ”

Yuan Muye sighed in his heart when he heard it, history is really a little girl who dresses up by others, and she has not experienced it herself...... No one knows what happened back then.

"Then why did they send Uncle Lin up the mountain?" Yuan Muye asked puzzled.

Xiao Lin paused after hearing this, and then said leisurely, "Because he is old and has been seriously ill for many years, the people in the village have discussed sending him to the mountains to worship the gods, so as to make up for the big mistakes made by everyone back then." ”

Yuan Muye felt a chill in his heart when he heard this, but he didn't expect those villagers who seemed to be simple on the surface to do such a dehumanizing thing behind their backs. Not only that, but Xiao Lin also told him that the kind of sweet potatoes dug up from the mountains were not for people to eat before! Yuan Muye remembered at this time that Ah Lang had brought him sweet potatoes for dinner, and it seemed that he was going to sacrifice him to the mountain god!

It turns out that many years ago, the villagers were dedicated to the mountain gods, and the gods in the village were even more respectful, and the most important thing was that the people of the village would never use living people to sacrifice to the gods, but used some pigs, sheep, chickens and ducks, and these sweet potatoes were often used as the last meal before they became sacrifices, and people must not compete with them.

However, since the incident a few years ago, although the villagers finally realized their mistakes, they have not been forgiven by the mountain gods, and all the sacrifices sent to them have been living well in the mountains, which proves that the mountain gods do not accept these offerings at all......

It was from that time on, I don't know who first proposed the use of human sacrifices, and finally everyone agreed that if they wanted to be forgiven by the gods...... It is necessary to show some sincerity, and of all the sacrifices, only the living sacrifice is the most sincere.

But who lives well and wants to die? So no one wanted to be this sacrifice, and in the end, the villagers discussed and decided to vote for the most suitable candidate......

As a result, Uncle Lin, who had been seriously ill in bed, was selected, and everyone agreed that Uncle Lin would die soon, and he could not only save the people in the village as a sacrifice, but also save his son Xiaolin.

Yuan Muye was puzzled when he heard this, "Why do you want to come back since you are gone?" If the crops here are not easy to grow, why do you have to trap yourself in this mountain? ”

When Xiao Lin heard this, he shook his head and said, "What do you know? In the past, the life expectancy of people in our village was very long, and we didn't get sick, but since we left the village, not only has everyone's life span shortened a lot, but we also often get sick, and our life is miserable......"

After hearing this, Yuan Muye probably understood what was going on, the villagers here had worshiped those monsters before, so within the range of their energy, they could naturally ensure the happiness and well-being of these villagers. But once out of this range, their bodies will be as weak as ordinary people outside the mountains, and their lifespan will naturally be shortened a lot.

While speaking, the two had already come to the outside of the village, and Yuan Muye only then realized that a mountain peak not far away was Luoxia Peak, but it seemed to be much lower than Luoxia Peak a few decades later......

Xiao Lin took Yuan Muye to stick to the cliff wall and walked forward, and saw a hand-dug stone ladder, although this stone ladder looked a little dangerous, but the villagers of Gongyan Village have been descending from here for generations.

Yuan Muye looked at Xiao Lin who was walking in front, and thought to himself that Xiao Lin should make a wish to the monster after he went up the mountain tonight, which means that the big earthquake would happen before dawn at the latest.

Yuan Muye knew in his heart that he shouldn't go up the mountain with Xiao Lin at this time, not to mention whether he could meet those monsters, just saying that he had met Uncle Lin, then his previous rhetoric would not be tenable.

Besides, he couldn't fully believe Kobayashi's words, what if he also wanted to trick himself into going up the mountain as a sacrifice? Thinking of this, Yuan Muye stood on his feet and said, "Xiaolin, I can't go up the mountain with you for the time being!" ”

When Xiao Lin heard this, he said anxiously, "You are crazy, Ah Lang and their group are looking for you everywhere, only on the mountain, they dare not go up casually!" ”

Yuan Muye thought for a while and said, "You may not believe it when you say it, I don't belong to this era, so naturally I won't die in this era." I know you'll make a wish to the mountain god when you go up the mountain, but you have to think about it, you're still young, if you are trapped here for the rest of your life...... You're going to miss out on that wonderful world out there. Yes, you may face illness and short-lived life when you go out to live, but this is normal life! Everyone living out there is like this, and it's actually you who are not normal. ”

Xiao Lin was stunned for a moment, and for a while he couldn't digest what Yuan Muye said, who knew that at this moment, a noisy and faint fire suddenly came from not far away, Yuan Muye knew that it should be the people in the village who caught up, so he pushed Xiao Lin and said, "Go and pick up Uncle Lin and leave here, I hope you can be a person who does not compromise with fear, because only in this way will your descendants not be burdened by this matter!" ”

As soon as Xiao Lin left with his front foot, Alang came up with someone on his back foot......

"Who the hell are you?" Aaron asked with a gloomy face.

Yuan Muye said without changing his face, "Didn't I say it? I am a distant relative of Uncle Lin! ”

"Nonsense, our ancestors have all lived here for generations, can we not know who has any relatives?" Aaron said with a skeptical expression.
