Outside.

The cultists were searching Tuckertown for the intruders, and they searched house to house in anger.

The beating flames reflected the hideous and terrifying faces.

In the hotel.

After listening to the old woman's narration, Li Xiao finally knew some dusty past events in Tucker Town, which made him a little surprised.

"Every cultist has the mark of the sea on his body."

At this moment, Li Xiao's eyes showed a hint of abruptness.

When he first arrived in Tucker Town, he was surprised why the villagers here had to cover themselves tightly and wrap themselves in three layers of inner and outer layers even in the hot season.

It turns out that the reason why they did this was to cover the mark of the sea on their bodies, could it be that every cultist was covered with such fish scales? This secrecy is a bit chilling.

"But why don't you leave this purgatory and go to another place to live?"

Li Xiao said with a look of puzzlement.

Old woman: "Because the priest said that they would not be sheltered outside Tuckertown, and that it was an even more terrible area, where no one could set foot and live." ”

Li Xiao shook his head and explained: "Contrary to what he said, the outside is not terrible, and it is a vast island with green mountains and green waters, fertile land, and it is more suitable for life there. ”

"Are you serious?"

The old woman's eyes widened, and she looked stunned.

"That's right."

Facing the old woman's stunned gaze, Li Xiao and Xiaoqiang both nodded undeniably.

There is no doubt that the island's outer perimeter is lush with greenery and life, and it is clear that it is more suitable for survival than this barren desert land.

But the old woman seems to be an afterthought.

It was clear that the priest was deceiving them, clearly trying to trick them into trapping them in the town of Tucker.

"But even so, we can't escape here, because we have made a contract with the sea, and we must stay here for all generations, or there will be heavenly punishment, and those heretics are the best examples."

After suppressing the surprise in her heart, the old woman's expression darkened again, showing a little helplessness and despair, as if she had completely lost the hope of escaping.

The old woman's low words came into her ears, and Li Xiao wrapped her hands in front of her with a thoughtful look.

Regarding this mark of the sea, Li Xiao already has a general understanding.

This mark of the sea is a mark that every cultist has, and it is also used to distinguish the dark cultists from ordinary people.

Besides.

This is also a kind of curse shrouded in Tucker Town, the scope of the curse is all set in this area, once someone crosses the boundary thunder pool for half a step, they will be punished, or even killed on the spot, so this is why, for several years, the villagers of Tucker Town have not dared to flee.

I have to say that such a method is still very cruel.

But why did this dark cult go to such great lengths to manipulate the villagers of Tucker Town, and what was their purpose, could it really be to snarn the devout followers and contribute prayer energy to them? At first glance, this may seem like a good idea, but if you think about it carefully, you will find a lot of flaws.

Li Xiao vaguely felt that there must still be an unknown huge conspiracy hidden in this, otherwise, the Dark God Sect would not have done so many things in a deliberate manner.

As soon as this idea appeared, it lingered in Li Xiao's mind, and at the same time, he became more and more curious, did this dark sect have their true purpose, or did it have some subtle connection with the TMTR organization?

The cultists outside were getting closer.

There wasn't much time left for them to hear the news.

In the flash of his mind, Li Xiao seemed to think of another question and asked, "What does the ritual of prayer represent, and why did that priest throw the heretics into the pool of blood?" Were they really sent to the divine realm to serve the dark gods? ”

The voice has not yet fallen.

I saw that the old woman trembled as if she had been shocked, her face was cloudy and uncertain, as if she had evoked the past that she didn't want to recall in her heart, and her eyes were red.

I don't know why, the old woman suddenly reacted like this, which made Li Xiao and Xiaoqiang a little puzzled.

After a long time, the old woman shook her head sadly: "I don't know what that ritual means...... Otherwise, I wouldn't have watched my son Gray being thrown into that pool of blood, and even the bones were gone, you know, my son has been docile and kind since he was a child, and he has never slandered the dark god, but he was ruthlessly thrown into the pool of blood by those damned guys, and suffered endless pain! ”

In the end, the old woman clenched her wrinkled fists, her eyes were red, and there was a hint of grief and indignation in her cloudy eyes.

After hearing the old woman's words, Li Xiao and Xiaoqiang's faces changed slightly, and they couldn't help but look at each other.

It turns out that the secret is like this.

The accident suffered by the old woman's son was actually thrown into the ancient well as a heretic and buried in the pool of blood?

It's no wonder that the old woman hates the Dark Sect so much.

Although she still believes in the Dark Sect on the surface, she is extremely disgusted in her heart, and perhaps it is for this reason that she did not reveal their whereabouts and whereabouts to the masked man.

But it doesn't make sense.

Since the old woman is a member of the cult, then of course as her son should also have the seal of the sea, and it is natural that she is a member of the cult, why is it regarded as a heresy? And what is the standard for this dark cult to identify heresy?

And who are there besides outsiders and those who hate the dark gods?

What is certain now is that Gray was sacrificed for definitely not the above reasons, and perhaps for other reasons, could it be because he was born with an affinity for animals?

Li Xiaomo rubbed his chin, thoughts were surging in his mind, his thoughts were divergent, and some conjectures emerged from his mind.

Meanwhile.

When the old woman confided the long-suppressed secret in her heart, she couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief, and the whole person was weakly paralyzed, sitting on the chair, staring at the violent ground with stunned eyes, no one knew what she was thinking.

"Knock knock."

And at this very moment.

There was a sudden knock on the door of the hotel, accompanied by the whispers of the disciples: "Old lady Rosherine, open the door, hurry down and open the door." ”

"According to the instructions of the priest, we will search the entire Tucker Town from house to house, and there will be no omission, of course, your hotel is no exception, hurry up and open the door, let's go in and search, hurry!"

The grumpy cultists urged impatiently.
