Chapter 47: The Newly Married
As soon as this person walked out of the door of the entertainment room, I felt a powerful aura, but it wasn't the kind that could oppress me, specifically if I didn't deliberately suppress myself, the aura released would be similar to him, half a catty? I don't know too much myself.
He is tall and thin, the same kind of board size as the village affairs here, and he is dressed similarly, all of them are the kind of black jacket and pants that are somewhat similar to the modified Tang costume, and he wears the same mask, but when I see this person, I am a little stunned, and my intuition feels that these are not the key, the key is that I always have an indescribable and inexplicable sense of familiarity with him.
Where does this feeling come from? I stared at his mask, behind his eyes was a pair of dark eyes, I couldn't see anything at all, and I couldn't tell the face and expression under his mask. So, I don't know how he would react when he saw me? In short, judging by the body language, nothing is flawless
"You're not honest, so before you go in, you have to let the adults check it first." The tone of the village official was not so friendly, and I naturally thought it was funny, could I still bring a bomb and blow up this recreation room? What about the so-called inspection?
At this time, the bug that had been lying on my arm moved lazily, which made me a little nervous, and I hope this will not be discovered.
What I didn't expect was that this so-called adult just looked at me a few times so-so, looked at me a few times, and then waved his hand impatiently, signaled that it was okay, turned around and re-entered the entertainment room.
Leaving the village affairs a little stunned, he obviously didn't expect the adult to let me go so perfunctory, looking at the appearance of the village affairs, even if I couldn't see his face, I also understood at this moment, where is the need for inspection, the cultivator itself is dangerous, there are naturally people in the recreation room to maintain order, he asked people to check me, purely to find me trouble, but I didn't expect this adult to find me any trouble.
I frowned slightly, feeling more and more strange in my heart, but it was only for a moment that my expression became calm, and then I said to the village officer, "Can I go in?" ”
The village official seemed a little unwilling, but he didn't dare to question the adult, so he could only push open the door and let me enter this so-called recreation room.
As soon as I walked into the courtyard, a smell of wine and meat wafted into my nose, accompanied by crazy and piercing music, the courtyard seemed to be a banquet, with tables and some people sitting around, the funny thing is that the men of the villagers usually hold one or two women in their arms, but most of the women of the villagers are looking for the kind of male village slaves to lean on and hold on
Is this a sign that you have been lonely for too long and desperately need companionship? I didn't think much about it, but stood in the courtyard and observed the so-called recreation room first.
The yard is well arranged, dotted with green plants, and some scenic arrangements, it is an open-air dining place, with all kinds of wine on the side, clearly marked with various so-called points, and the appetizers that look exquisite are free
And there are many rooms in the courtyard, each room is clearly marked what the place is, such as gambling halls, taverns and so on, almost all the entertainment methods in the society are simply included here, and even the so-called KTV I am basically a person with no entertainment cells, I think it is more suitable for me to be a pub similar to a bar, so I walked into it.
Even though it was daytime in reality, it was still relatively dark when I walked into this tavern, just like the real world in the tavern, and God knows how many people there were in this big village, because there were many tables full of people.
Maybe it's because life is too depressing on weekdays, and these people who have drunk here talk very unscrupulously, I guess as long as they don't talk about any taboo things, there shouldn't be a big problem, right?
My entry didn't attract any extra attention from the people here, and I didn't know any of them, so I thought about it and sat down at the bar.
I have a limited number of points, and in this so-called tavern, all kinds of drinks are not 'cheap', as if the existence of this place encourages people to earn more points, and then come here to consume, forgetting the pain of the lonely law of living in the village, and more directly, it is also a disguised persecution of people's devotion to the so-called gods.
I asked for two beers, and I drank them slowly, seemingly absent-mindedly, but in fact I was listening to the various conversations of the people here, in fact, there was nothing to pay special attention to, and most of the people here were making a lot of noise about their own devotion to the so-called god.
What God? I felt funny, because I had never felt such a shy god in the world, and I worshipped it for ten days, and I didn't even know its specific image, and even the shrine in the worship room was covered with a black cloth, and I only knew that under the black cloth was the god, and I didn't know anything else.
"Do you know why the wine here is more expensive than outside?" Behind the bar, a bartender was wiping the glass in his hand, probably seeing that I was bored alone, and inexplicably began to talk to me.
I looked at him closely, and this man was not a village slave, because he didn't have the obvious signs of a village slave, which was a tattoo of a black skull on the side of his neck.
I wasn't interested in the topic, so I took a beer in my hand and shook my head.
The bartender smiled mysteriously at me, and said, "Because this is the place where the whole village speaks most freely, and the rest of the places are impossible." ”
Out-of-town? My heart moved, but I remained silent, pretending to be surprised and asked, "Is it free?" I was here for the first time and I thought it was just a place to show loyalty. ”
"No, no, no." The bartender shook his head and said, "Expressing loyalty to the gods here will naturally reward you with points, and the people who come here to drink have nothing to exchange to surprise them, you know?" You are a strange face, you come here, you can find out through conversation, you will know more about this place. ”
I thought to myself that I had really come to the right place, in fact, there was nothing to hide when I thought about it, the strength of this holy village could already make it have no scruples, the villagers here are like fish in a net, there is no possibility of escaping again, so some fish are curious, just satisfy them.
So, I laughed, pretended to be dumbfounded, and said, "I can't think of anything I know anything about it?" ”
I said this on purpose, because according to people's psychology and speaking habits, he would definitely throw out a more shocking news to convince me.
Sure enough, he said to me with a mysterious face, "Are you really not interested?" Aren't you interested in when you'll be chosen as a 'new marriage'? ”
'Newlywed', what's that? My heart began to shake, just because I inevitably remembered the existence of the story, the strange male and female corpses, both dressed in newlywed dresses, and then appeared in the town, no
The more I thought about it, the more my scalp was numb, and the bottle was held up in the air, but I forgot to drink it for a long time, and even if I wanted to pretend not to care, it would not work.
At this moment, there was a loud commotion in the bar, and the people seemed to be cheering, barely able to hide my shock, I turned my head as if I didn't care, and in the dim light that I had used to, I saw a man who was madly slapping another man, and the other man seemed a little submissive and did not dare to fight back, nor did he dare to say anything.
I couldn't see the eyes of the man who was fanned, but judging from his expression, he was not convinced, but he didn't dare to make any moves.
People were cheering for the man, and I was sensitive to the fact that the bartender was not completely 'open', and in the corner, there were some people dressed as village officials standing in a low-key manner, but they seemed to be indifferent to this obvious violation of the rules and order, and just wore a signature mask and looked at it coldly.
My gaze stayed for a few seconds, and I subconsciously poured myself a big sip of beer, what a very coincidental thing, the man who slapped people was the drunkard, today in the cafeteria, he also drank me, he seems to be really very arrogant, not only arrogant in the village, but also so arrogant in this entertainment room.
Like a thrilling game, the man seemed to be encouraged by the cheers of the people, and his movements became more and more excessive, until later, he actually picked up a wine bottle, kicked it over the table, and kicked down the beaten man, and then the wine bottle fell hard.
At this time, the village affairs finally made a move, and one of the village officials took the man's hand, and the man said excitedly: "Don't forget, there are still seven days, and I have a privilege." ”
What privileges? At this time, the bartender's ghostly voice came to my ears again: "See, this man is the chosen 'newlywed' in our area." ”
My heart fluttered, and I didn't notice that the bar lit up and a figure entered the bar without a sound.
