Chapter 169: False Happiness
With the painful grunt of the sacrifices, the four gods frantically bit at their bodies.
The bite force of the god's mouth is greater than that of a tiger or leopard, and the flesh and bones of a human being are more tender and crispy than tofu biscuits in their mouths.
I saw flesh and blood flying, and the four foxy gods scrambled like wolves, biting off a large piece of meat and quickly retreating to the side. Chew the flesh and bones, stretch out your neck and swallow it in a big gulp, and then continue to bite it.
"Goo!" Gou Xiansi watched it thrillingly, it was the first time he saw the scene of human sacrifice, and he was so frightened that he was cold.
"It's better to be a dragon god, this god is so cruel, no wonder the people of Mangrove Village will abandon them."
He blinked, staring intently at the stage, when he suddenly saw a yellow shadow fly from a fox god to the head of the sacrifice.
"What's that?" Gou Xiansi felt that he had discovered something very important, and hurriedly straightened up, staring closely, but saw nothing.
He searched the slaughterhouse for a long time with wide eyes, but still didn't find the yellow shadow, and couldn't help shaking his head and said, "It should be the flesh and blood that was splashed out, or it was dazzling." ”
The god on the stage was eating people, and hundreds of humans in the audience watched dumbfounded, at first they were all insensitive, but gradually, the expressions of the crowd changed.
Some are timid, some are indifferent, some are sad, and many more are angry, and it is not known whether their anger is directed at the god or the person who brought the sacrifice to the altar.
The four gods in human form quickly wiped out the bones and slag of the two adult men, and still licked the blood on the ground.
"Click, click!" The child was full, stood up, his face covered with blood, and began to touch his teeth again.
The other three heard the sound and roared at the child god of the gods, and the child god roared back.
The three seemed to be led by children, and they yelled at each other several times, and they were afraid of the children, so they reluctantly got up from the ground and stood behind the children.
Swallowing the two humans, the bellies of the gods bulged out as if they were pregnant. They stroked their stomachs with their hands, their mouths were chirping, their tongues were still licking on their mouths, and they looked like they were full of wine and food.
"Uh...... Edi God, are you satisfied with our offerings? The old woman asked tremblingly.
The child's mouth clicked a few times and said, "Okay...... Eat! ”
When the old woman saw that God praised the food she had delivered, she smiled happily, bent down and bowed her head, stretched out her hand and asked, "Forehead God, please give your believers a little divine power." ”
The gods did not react, and everyone was worried that they would be angry again, when the old woman suddenly put her hands to her mouth, and with a 'poof' sound, a puff of pale green smoke came out of her mouth.
The green smoke is different from the smoke they appear in.
The previous smoke was a heavy brownish yellow, large and powerful, very cohesive, and the color of this one was greenish, light and light.
The green smoke gently spewed forward two or three meters away, getting fainter and fainter, and soon dissipated into the air.
"Poof! Burst! Burst! The old woman slowly took three puffs of green smoke and stopped spraying.
And then...... Nothing happened.
Gou Xiansi looked inexplicably, and his eyes moved from the stage to the front of the stage, but he saw that the people of Mangrove Village seemed to be evil in the collective. They all sat on the ground, their eyes closed, their heads tilted, and their mouths wide open and breathing deeply.
"Can you smell it?" Suspicious, he sniffed twice and seemed to smell a fragrance. The smell is very faint, so faint that if you don't distinguish it carefully, you won't notice it at all.
"It's kind of familiar." Hook String couldn't think of it for a while, so he couldn't help but sniff it for a while.
The smell became more and more obvious, it smelled very good, and he gradually felt that his sense of sight and hearing seemed to be much sharper, and the objects around him were glowing, and the breath of the people below could be heard clearly.
"I can jump to the top of a tree." He felt that his crossed legs were full of strength, and he just wanted to vent immediately, and he couldn't help but jump up.
"Ah Si, don't move!" The shoulder was suddenly pressed down, and there was a loud shout from Lie Shanhong in his ears.
Gou Xiansi was startled, suddenly came to his senses, his eyes were blurry, he shook his head vigorously, and finally regained his vision.
Turning his head, Lieshan Hong and Lieshan Du'an beside him pursed their lips tightly, both staying awake, staring at the fox god on the stage with blazing eyes.
"Why are you ......" was just about to speak, when he heard the noise of people below, and when he looked down, he saw that the crowd had fallen into madness.
People were crying and laughing, screaming and jumping, some talking to themselves, some shouting loudly, some scurrying around, and some copulating in public, and the scene was chaotic.
"Ugh! Thanks to you for waking me up, otherwise ......"
Gou Xiansi watched several men hugging each other and inserting each other, couldn't help wiping a cold sweat, looked at the strong Lie Shanhong, and said with palpitations.
Lie Shanhong didn't have as many dirty thoughts as him, and said with a cold face: "As long as you make up your mind and don't taste the smell, you won't be affected." ”
Gou Xiansi was horrified and asked, "This smell will confuse people's minds, why do you still smoke it?" ”
Lie Shanhong shook his head helplessly and said, "Because of happiness." ”
"Smoking this cigarette can make people feel the ultimate happiness, everyone thinks that there is divine power in the smoke, and the villagers have regarded this cigarette as a reward for believers in the past generations."
"So, every once in a while, the village holds a summoning ceremony to smoke cigarettes en masse, and everyone treats it as a carnival festival. Only a few people realize that something is wrong. ”
Gou Xiansi took a closer look, only to find that some people in the crowd were pretending to be crazy and stupid, and they really didn't fall into it, and asked, "Since it can bring happiness, why don't you suck it?" ”
Lie Shanhong looked sad and sighed: "Every time after the divine power retreats, people wake up from happiness, and they will find that no matter what they do, they are not so happy. ”
"So everyone became lazy and depressed, and it was not until a long time later that they could recover, and then they waited for another blessing from the gods, and so on, and so on, and the villagers' spirits became worse and worse."
Lieshan Du'an looked disgusted, and shouted in a low voice: "False happiness, indulgent depravity, if this continues, our tribe will be finished." ”
"Thanks to the fact that there are still many people who have not been tempted by the divine power, and after everyone's sober persuasion, I finally persuaded everyone today and agreed to abandon the gods!"
"I see."
Gou Xiansi thought for a moment, touched the blood worm vine juice on his body again, and asked, "Didn't you say that you can be protected from the effects by applying this thing, why are they still like this?" ”
Lieshan Hong raised his chin at the child god and whispered, "The four of them each have their own magical powers, and the smoke emitted by that small one is the most terrifying, and it must be coated with blood worm vine juice to avoid it. ”
"Oh." Gou Xian's four eyes rolled, and asked, "What are they capable of?" ”
"Poof!"
Lie Shanhong was just about to speak, but the yellow smoke burst out again, instantly enveloping the entire wooden platform.
The clatter of the wind blowing through the woods began again, and by the time the smoke had cleared, the four gods were gone.
