Xiaobai walked for about three hours, through the layers of woods, and saw a blue water lake, which was also a little strange, lying there in the shape of a half-moon.

There were no clouds in the sky tonight, the moon was bright and unclear, as if covered with a veil, and somehow at this time, the moonlight looked a little cold and mysterious.

This moon is known as the Mao Moon in folklore, and it indicates that the weather will change drastically, or something very bad will happen somewhere.

Xiaobai walked to the lake to get a bowl of water, and suddenly saw a torch flickering in the forest to the west, so he took a step back and hid behind a tree.

A group of people came out not far from the forest, a group of people held torches, led by a middle-aged chubby man, who looked quite rich and noble, and a group of people who followed were also dressed in brocade and jade.

They walked to the lake, and out of them came an old woman in black, the old woman held a black bead, calmly walked to the front, and the slightly chubby man consciously took a few steps back, as if he respected the old woman in black very much.

Xiaobai has cultivated the relationship between Lingyun, and his five senses have improved a lot, and things that are farther away can also be seen and heard clearly, because Xiaobai is a cultivator of the water system and the wind system, so he will be sensitive to the perception of water and wind.

Xiaobai continued to watch, and a black bowl came up next to the old woman, and another servant brought a black jar, and the old woman groped in the black jar.

Grabbed a small blue-black snake with black gills like fish gills on either side of its eyes.

When everyone saw the blue-black snake, they all gasped in fright.

As soon as he twisted his hands, the little green and black snake died, and he slashed the snake's neck with a knife, and the black blood flowed out, and he immediately caught it with a black bowl.

"It's the Black Snake Messenger, it doesn't matter, it will convey the message of our contribution," the old woman explained

She bit her fingers, stirring in the black blood, chanting the Fa, and the group of people behind her was silent at the moment.

"It's not too early, bring the sacrifice candidates" The old woman's eyes were very mean and indifferent

Five eight-year-olds were tied up and pushed up, one of the little girls was so scared that she cried, and the other children cried along

The old woman scolded, "What are you crying for, don't cry, someone will stuff her mouth"

The little girl's mouth was gagged with a cloth by a servant, and the little girl could not cry, choked and trembled.

The other children also stopped crying, and looked at the old woman trembling and frightened.

The old woman nodded, and a servant took a knife and made a small wound on the child's finger, and a drop of blood dripped into the black bowl, one after another, and when the last child arrived, the black blood in the black bowl magically turned into red blood.

The old woman smiled with relief, "It's him, send him in"

The little boy was the only one of the five who didn't cry or make a fuss, dressed in dirty rags and with rotten shoes on his feet.

A gorgeously dressed woman in the crowd asked questioningly, "But he's not from Yuancun, so it won't affect you."

The old woman said indifferently, "But the Black Water Snake King chose him, since he chose him, then the method is still useful, rest assured, of course glory and wealth are indispensable"

The woman was silent for a moment, and the old woman glanced at the crowd, then beckoned to the servant, who stuffed the little boy into a cage made of bamboo strips, and stuffed a large stone into the cage.

When Xiaobai saw this, he understood what their group of scum was going to do, they wanted to soak the boy in the pig cage, just for the sake of glory and wealth, superstition and harming people.

Xiao Bai clenched his fists angrily.

Then the two servants dragged the bamboo cage to a bridge that had been built, dragged it a few meters away, and then pushed the boy into the lake, and because of the heavy stones, the boy sank into it in a few moments.

Suddenly there was a gust of evil wind, and the two servants immediately ran back to the shore, Xiaobai quietly entered the water in the dark, and the group on the shore also felt the evil wind and immediately went back and disappeared into the forest.

Xiao Bai held the dagger brought out of the fat man's body in his hand, and dived under the water in one breath, one of the advantages of the water system cultivator is that he can see clearly under the water.
