It turned out that Xinglu heard that the children were not missing for no reason, let alone abducted by human traffickers, but were sacrificed alive by villagers. The reason why it is so deserted outside is because they are holding a sacrifice ceremony, and the villagers have gone to watch and worship.

Situ Yimo was also stunned when she heard about it, she knew that the people here were a little pedantic and superstitious, but they could sacrifice living people, which was too much, and the focus was on seven or eight-year-old children!

I heard that the reason for their sacrifice is that their sacred well has dried up, and Wutong Town has eaten this well water for generations, which is not only sweet and delicious, but also has miraculous effects.

The people of Wutong Town not only have white and tender skin, but they are also not easy to get sick, because of this well water. This is also the reason why Wutong Town is famous in Nanning.

Situ Yimo had also drunk the well water in Wutong Town before, which was indeed very special, different from other places. The water they used just now didn't seem to be well water, so no wonder she thought it was weird.

"My daughter!"

"Xianggong, save our Panniang!"

"Lady, don't be sad, this is also for our entire Wutong Town!"

"Sacrifice her alive! Sacrifice her alive......"

"O great god of water! Please give us the water from the well! ”

When Situ Yimo and the others arrived at the sacred well, they saw that the villagers were kneeling towards the sacred well with torches, and there were two people standing by the well with a seven or eight-year-old girl tied to them, and they were still shouting, "Water God, give us well water." ”

"What a bullshit water god, it's just presumptuous! The lord of this county must kill them!"

"Wait, let's hear what they have to say."

Seeing that Nirui County was rushing up, Situ Yimo hurriedly pulled her and asked her to calm down first.

"Bang--" Suddenly someone struck the gong and shouted, "The sacrifice begins--"

There was a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties who stood up, that person Situ Yimo and they all knew, he was the mayor of Wutong Town, Elder Cui, compared to the last time I saw him, it seemed to be more than ten years old.

I saw him sigh when he looked at the tied child, but he was helpless, shook his head and cried, "Child, don't blame us, it's just for our entire Wutong Town, we can only exchange you." ”

"Bang--"

As the gong sounded, the two men held the child to the mouth of the well, waiting for an order to push her down.

Situ Yimo frowned, his right hand quietly lucked, staring at the gong in the man's hand, always ready to save people, but unexpectedly, the county lord of Nirui had already rushed to the crowd and scolded them.

"You fools, stop for the lord of this county!"

The county lord glared at them, and without saying a word, he punched and kicked them, and kicked them several times before he took the child in his arms.

The two men were stunned and lay on the ground babbling in pain. Everything came too suddenly, and the villagers were stunned for a moment, and then they looked angrily at the woman in red who came to make trouble, and surrounded the county lord Nirui with the torch in her hand.

"Who are you? Destroying our sacrifice!"

Seeing so many torches, the county lord of Nirui panicked for a moment, and then straightened his chest and scolded angrily, "Hmph, you fools, it is really cruel to sacrifice such a young child alive!"

When those villagers saw the woman in red dressed gorgeously, they knew that she had an extraordinary background, and they were a little overwhelmed for a while, and they didn't know who shouted, "No matter who you are, you ruined our sacrifice, and the water god blamed you for not giving us holy water, can you afford to pay for it!"

Hearing this, the villagers also became angry, and pointed at the county lord of Nirui with torches, "Put down the child, otherwise we will delay our sacrifice, and we will not be welcome!"

The county lord of Nirui held the child's hands sore, and when he saw the villagers looking like they were about to set fire to her, he trembled with anger, "The county lord wants to see it, how dare you not be polite!"

"Huh? Princess? ”

"She's the county lord?"

The villagers were at a loss again, they were helpless to sacrifice their children, and it was also for the sake of Wutong Town, otherwise who would want to sacrifice their own children!

"Yes, this county lord is the county lord of Nirui, the niece of the current saint!"

"Ahh

"This ...... Holy niece!"

Seeing that they were flustered, the county lord of Nirui breathed a sigh of relief, she thought that these Diao people were so bold and reckless that they dared to set fire to her!

"Hurry up and withdraw to the county lord, and if you dare to sacrifice the child in the future, the county lord will beat you into a pig's head!"

Seeing that the villagers were scared, a man in hemp rope clothes secretly shouted that it was not good, but if he really hurt the county lord, he was afraid that it would make things bigger, so he thought about it and shouted loudly.

"Even if you are the lord of the county, you can't stop us from sacrificing, if the well keeps drying up, how can you let us live? If we don't sacrifice this child, the god of water won't give us holy water!"

"Yes, the well can't run dry!"

"We must sacrifice this child!"

"You ......"

Seeing that they were boiling again, the smiling face immediately stiffened, and his head was confused by their shouts.

"County Lord, should we ......" Xinglu saw that the situation was not good, looked at Situ Yimo and said, before the words were finished, Situ Yimo shook his head.

"You go and stare at the guy who just spoke, he has a problem."

"Yes."

Seeing Xinglu leaving, Shang Shuwei was a little nervous, she pulled Situ Yimo's sleeve, her face worried, "They won't really dare to burn Nirui, right?" ”

"Don't worry, with me, Nirui won't be burned." Situ chuckled lightly with his lips.

"Lord Nirui, please, let go of my child, let her, let her sacrifice!" The child's father knelt at the feet of the lord of Nirui, his face was sad, and the woman beside him had long been unable to weep.

"You, she's your daughter! You're willing to let her sacrifice!" The Lord of Ni Rui was so angry that he trembled!

"For the sake of Wutong Town, it is also her blessing to be sacrificed!"

Hearing this, the county lord of Nirui almost vomited blood in anger, "Blessing of bullshit! You guys, you ......"

Those villagers felt that they couldn't delay any longer, for the sake of Wutong Town, they had the courage to arrest the Nirui County Lord, and snatched the child, the Nirui County Lord was stunned, she didn't dare to think that someone would dare to be rude to her!

She's the emperor's niece!

"Stop!"

As soon as they were about to throw the child into the well, they saw a woman in blue coming, as elegant as a breeze, but as cold and arrogant as snow, which made the villagers' hearts stagnate, and then they said helplessly, "Why are there people making trouble again?" ”

"Who are you?"

"I'm the county lord of Anhe, Situ Yimo."

"Another county lord!"

The villagers were stunned for a moment, looked at each other, and saw her awe-inspiring aura, and they were all a little jealous. That man was sweating on his forehead, he was really unlucky today, and two county lords came one after another!

"What about Lord Anhe, don't stop us from sacrificing!"

Situ Yimo raised his eyebrows and chuckled, "A county lord is not good. It's just that the county lord is a little puzzled, you sacrifice this child, can you really ask for spring water? ”

As soon as the words fell, Situ Yimo's body was stunned, she looked at the crowd, didn't see anything, and couldn't help frowning.

Just now she clearly felt a very familiar gaze staring at her, could it be her delusion?
