Zheng Xian once again hid back in the area where the third-class officials lived in the north of the city, and in Zheng Xian's opinion, it would take a lot of manpower to search for him, and those officials would definitely come out of the nest and focus all their energy on the chaotic area in the south of the city.

And for anyone, the most trusted place is often their own home, when they search their own home, they will not be too serious, especially between colleagues, it is even more difficult to carefully check, Huaxia's officialdom is intricate and complex interpersonal relationships, you check others so fiercely, so seriously, so carefully, you are not afraid that others will wear small shoes for you?

In this way, it is indeed a correct choice to hide in this area where the officials live.

However, Zheng Xian didn't know what to say, the first wave to come to him was not those officials, it was a group of real palace ghost babies!

Although Zheng Xian has been in the city for a while, he basically didn't inquire about the magical methods of the disciples of the land gate, after all, the mortals in the city only know that the magic of the land immortals is endless, and if you ask them to say one, they will all be blind, either nonsense or fragmentation.

It was because Zheng Xian didn't know much about the cultivation methods of the Land Immortal Gate and the ghost babies of the True Palace.

Zheng Xian returned to Gao Yue's house and hid on the beam of the kitchen.

Gao Yue's girl was locked in the house, and her father and mother and even the whole city went to participate in the dream ceremony, so she was the only one who couldn't see anyone.

The annual Harmony Ceremony has a whole thousand virgins sacrificed to the gods of the land gate, and eventually became a tool for childbirth, and after ten months of pregnancy, they broke their abdomen and died, which can be described as a tragic end.

This kind of sacrifice is always to fill the pit with the daughters of the third-class people and the fourth-class slaves, and the officials who handle this matter will not send their daughters out of the river, which is almost a well-established rule.

But there are exceptions once or twice a year, if the daughters of the officials' family are favored by the fairies, then nothing can be said, even those first-class slaves have to obediently send their daughters to the land gods.

So whenever it comes to the dream ceremony or the Harmony ceremony, the officials will hide their unmarried daughters, not only these two times, but even usually hide tightly, the door does not go out of the two doors, the officials do not know this little privilege There are still some, even those first-class slaves know the way, they are all blind to one eye, and when the daughters of the officials get married, it will naturally be fine, and the gods only like virgins who have reached the age of childbearing.

The third-class people and the fourth-class slaves who have a little money once they give birth to daughters, they are often worried, and those officials who knock on the bones and suck the marrow know very well who has daughters, especially those rich families, they have to prepare money early, waiting for the officials to come to the door to extort, ask for money and goods.

However, many of those small families are happy when they give birth to daughters, because after contributing their daughters, the immortals of the land gate will give back a bride price, of course, this is the saying of the people, and the immortals of the land gate will definitely not think that this is a bride price, a group of fertility tools, and it has nothing to do with marriage.

The reason why there is this bride price is because the gods of the land gate strangled all of them to death in order not to let the people give birth to daughters, so they built such a criterion.

This bride price is enough for ten years of general family life, so that some people who are cold by nature are desperate to have children, and they are looking forward to giving birth to daughters.

They even had to find a way to bribe the officials so that they could send their daughters to the Hopewell ceremony.

It is precisely because of this condition that the population of this Xuantian City has not collapsed, otherwise, the daughter will be born for nothing anyway, and it will not save a lot of food by strangling it directly? When the time comes, the city will be full of old men, and there will be bachelors everywhere, and this Xuantian City will be completely finished, after all, for a city, the most important thing is the population.

This is also the only bit of favor that the land gods have for mortals. Of course, if that's a favor.

Gao Ping'er was locked in the house and was extremely bored, and after flipping through the book for a while, she felt more and more bored, and then she moved a ladder and erected it on the wall, she didn't want to escape, she didn't have the courage to disobey her parents' orders, and Gao Ping'er didn't dare to run out, although Gao Ping'er loved to join in the fun, but her courage has always been very small.

Gao Ping'er was going to climb the ladder and look at the square in the distance to see if she could see the excitement, so that she would not disobey her parents' orders, and she saw the excitement again, so why not?

But she had barely climbed up the wall, and before her head could poke out of the wall, she suddenly heard a roar like 'Kill him, string him into a pile'.

This was the roar of more than 100,000 people at the same time, and this sound frightened Gao Ping'er at once, and Gao Ping'er almost fell off the ladder.

Gao Ping'er was so frightened that she immediately ran down from the wall and never dared to go up the wall again.

The tsunami-like sound of the mountain shook the walls and trembled, Gao Ping'er was so frightened that she hurriedly went back to the house, but there was still nowhere to escape, and the beams in the house were even falling with dust.

Gao Ping'er is the kind of person who has been held in the palm of her hand by her father since she was a child, although Gao Yue is often not at home, but Gao Ping'er has always been accompanied by her mother, and there has never been a situation where her father and mother are not at home, and there are strange noises outside, of course, sixteen-year-old Gao Ping'er is extremely frightened, and she is so frightened that she almost calls her mother.

The murderous intent implied in that voice made Gao Ping'er panic.

Fortunately, the sound stopped abruptly after a moment, and Gao Ping'er, who was almost under the table, put her hands on the corner of the table, a pair of big eyes flashed, and she was full of frightened looks that only frightened rabbits have.

Because of the contribution of the virgin, Gao Yue has not let his daughter go out in the past few years, even if she goes out, she has to cover her face tightly, Ping'er herself is a beauty embryo, if it falls in the eyes of a certain fairy, it will be bad, so Ping'er is just a little girl who has never experienced anything in the world, and she is very timid.

Girls from other people's families, as long as they don't want to contribute to the land immortals, are generally married at the age of fourteen or even earlier, Gao Yue relied on his identity as an official, and it was not his turn to send his daughter to contribute, daughter, so the daughter's marriage was delayed for two years, not that Gao Yue did not want his daughter to marry, but he was not satisfied with three or four daughters before and after, Gao Yue spoiled Ping'er since he was a child, plus Gao Yue really wanted to be more close to his daughter in recent years, after all, once his daughter got married, she would not lose to their family, and when she returned home, it was empty, which really made people feel depressed。 It is also lonely for a wife to be without a companion.

Gao Yue didn't rush too much, but Gao Yue always felt that he couldn't survive this year, so he made up his mind that he must find a good in-law for Ping'er this year.

Zheng first glanced at the little girl, then entered the kitchen of the Gao family, unfolded the scroll and threw it over her body, and immediately disappeared without a trace.

"No one is allowed to leave here, and all living creatures in the city are to be killed all the way.
