Chapter 155: The Dark History of Lingru Village

"This ......"

"My God......"

"God, we seem to have offended a strong man just now, and our Lingru Village is finished......"

"I just walked away with a evil god, and now I have offended another one that seems to be even more powerful, we Lingru Village, is it really going to be over?"

"Ling is like a god. Pen %fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info bless us......"

"If you don't bless Lingru Village, your most faithful believer will be completely finished......"

The people of Lingru Village fell to their knees one after another, kept kowtowing and begging, and then stood up and began to dance and sing again, constantly circling around the grass.

An old man who seemed to be the oldest, trembling with a stick, followed among them, his face full of piety. The old man worked hard to standardize his movements, and he also tried to keep up with the people in front of him.

"Village Chief, what should we do?"

Suddenly, these people who were walking around the haystack stopped again, and one of the middle-aged people hurriedly supported the old man and asked the old man with a panicked face. It's not just this middle-aged man who is flustered, the rest of them all have sad faces, and it is already their greatest effort to be able to work hard around the haystack for so long.

"What else can I do? The sacrifice continues, everyone pack up their moods, don't offend Ling Rushen!"

The old man gasped for breath, and it took a while for him to recover. At the old man's age, it is already commendable to be able to follow these people around the haystack for so long, and it also makes the old man feel unbearable.

Seeing that everyone was waiting for him to come up with an idea, the old man looked solemn and serious.

When it comes to Ling Ru God, the old man is even more pious and reverent, and it seems that the slightest disrespect will lead to ruin. The old man was even more keenly aware that although these people were still very religious, at the same time, their hearts seemed to have been shaken a little. And this slight change came from the man and woman who appeared just now, as well as the evil god who came not long ago.

The old man was also very flustered, not knowing what was going on in the world, in this short period of time, their peaceful and peaceful little village was always in trouble. First of all, some people want to enslave Lingru Village, and ask Lingru Village to pay a certain amount of medicinal materials and gold every year, but how can they, a small village that has been almost isolated from the outside world, complete so many tasks?

"However, Ling is like a god, can he really protect us?"

Sure enough, just as the old man had expected, someone stood up and began to question the gods they had been worshipping all along. Doesn't the old man understand that if the gods of nothingness could protect them, they would have already manifested their spirits, and how could they be put in danger and become slaves of others?

"Can it really protect us?"

glanced at the people who had formed a circle, and the old man also had a trace of doubt in his heart.

When nothing happened, they worshipped the gods and feared them like fire. But now, Lingru Village is facing an unprecedented crisis. This is different from the era of peace, there are too many strong people around this small village in crisis!

In the same way, it is because of the arrival of the crisis that they will think and think about whether the gods can be trusted or not.

"I think the gods can protect us!"

The old man was a little lacking in confidence, and his voice was a little low. Whether they can protect them or not, the old man is not sure, after all, since there was this kind of sacrifice, they began to believe in Ling Ru God, and they have never seen the manifestation of the gods, let alone the slightest protection of the gods!

"Village chief, we don't know if Ling is like a god or not. At this time of year, we offer offerings and worship sincerely. But just half a month ago, at the entrance of our village, 38 people in Lingru Village were young and strong, and they died in despair! At that time, where was the Lingru God? The sacrifices never stopped, and there were many sacrifices every year, but Lingru was not protecting us at all!"

"Yes, village chief, we are now about to become slaves of others, and we may be killed by others at any time, and Ling Ru God has not yet appeared, when will we be able to protect us?"

"Every year, a pair of boys and girls, ten pigs, sheep and ten cows, this is already a year's hard work in our Lingru Village! If Lingru God really exists, and enjoys so many of our sacrifices every year, he should have remembered us a long time ago, and when we are in trouble, he should have protected us! Not to mention why Lingru God did not appear, I just want to ask, is the god so despise human life, and every year he needs to burn a pair of boys and girls, and ten pigs, sheep and cows? Is this a god or a devil?"

Discussions, condemnations, and doubts sounded, and if it were in an era of peace and happiness, in an era of no crisis, no one would dare to question, and no one would dare to question it, let alone anyone would think of questioning it.

But when they were in great danger, the gods they worshipped not only did not help them resolve their dangers, but they were even more in danger! No one stood up to help them, no one upheld justice for them, and only when they were desperate did people rebel! The first thing they questioned was the gods they worshipped!

The old man was silent, the old man had lived a lot of age, although the legend of Ling Ru God had been heard since he was a child, and he was in awe since he was a child, but the old man still couldn't deny one thing, that is, the gods, it seemed that they had forgotten them!

Turning his head to look at the haystack behind him, in the haystack, the heads of pigs, cows and sheep were exposed, and at the top of the haystack, a pair of young children who were tied hands and feet without gagged mouths, with a frightened face, the old man's heart shook a little.

Ten pigs, cows and sheep each are already the limit that Lingru Village can bear, and Lingru Village is busy every year for the sacrifice held today every year. At the end of the year, the hard work will be burned!

That's all there is to it, why do you burn two children every year?

Decades are like a day, thinking back to how many children have been burned to death under his nose in the past few decades, the old man's heart can't help but ache. Fifty years ago, one of his children was burned to death here, just a few decades later! It was precisely because of this that he sat on the throne of the village chief! Just sitting on the throne of the village chief, why do they feel guilty and sad and distressed every year?

Looking at it again, beside the haystack, the woman who had almost fainted from crying, the old man's spirit was a little trance, fifty years ago, his wife, like this woman, cried into a tearful person, cried heartbroken, cried to despair, and finally died.

A good family has been shattered, a complete family, a happy family, and now only one is left alone for decades!

Is it worth it?

Are the gods harming people, or are they supposed to protect people?

"It's just...... God, it's the ......"

It took a long time for the old man to come back to his senses from his spiritual world, and he glanced at the crowd around him, and the guilt in his heart became more and more intense. If I had refused... Your own children should also have children!

And here, there are dozens more!

The boys and girls who were burned to death should be standing here!

The old man's lips trembled a little, and he instinctively wanted to stop the sacrifice.

This idea, the old man has had for decades!

"Village chief, slow down!" At this time, a loud roar came, and a middle-aged man in a strange costume walked to the front of the crowd, this middle-aged man also held a scepter in his hand, the scepter was three feet long, and at the top of the scepter, there was a hideous skull!

"The Great Sacrifice ......"

Seeing the people coming, including the village chief, everyone's faces changed. This middle-aged man who came was the spokesman of Lingru God and the messenger of God! The sacrifice of Lingru Village was mainly presided over by him.

Because they fear the gods like tigers, naturally, they also have a heartfelt fear for the messengers of the gods!

The high priest glanced at the villagers of Lingru Village, and knew that the villagers of Lingru Village had lowered their heads one by one, and no one dared to stand up against him, so the high priest nodded with satisfaction: "Village chief, it's not that the gods don't show up, but our sacrifices, which are too few, which makes the gods a little angry!"

Too few offerings?

The villagers of Lingru Village, Huo Ran raised his head.

"I communicated with the gods just now, and because Ling Rucun is not religious, the gods have abandoned us!"

The high priest had a sad face, followed by a hideous face of the great priest.

"There are too few sacrifices, and the gods are angry!

The village chief was stunned, his face was a little unconvinced, but at this time, the village chief still couldn't refute the great sacrifice. After all, the gods have been ingrained in their hearts, and they have long been difficult for them to resist!

However, the village chief, there was still a wise light in his eyes that flashed away.

"One pair of boys and one more girl, ten more pigs, cows and sheep, plus one hundred taels of gold!"

The great priest still has that expression, and this opening makes everyone's faces change wildly!

Ten pigs, sheep and cattle are already the fruits of Lingru Village's labor for a year. If it is increased again, Lingrucun will not be able to take out another cow or sheep unless it smashes the pot and sells iron! Not to mention a hundred taels of gold! Not to mention a hundred taels, even if it is ten taels, Lingrucun will not be able to take it out! If you want to add another cow and sheep, you can't do it!

"No......" The village chief directly refused, and the doubts in the village chief's eyes became deeper and deeper, and there was also a trace of anger rising. Fifty years ago, they didn't stop that tragedy, and in the past fifty years, he didn't stop so many tragedies, and today, as the village head, he must do something for Lingru Village!

"It is difficult to increase the sacrifices, and the boys and girls will not be burned to death again!"

The village chief's body trembled a little, this was the most courageous day for the village chief in the past 50 years. Because as he grew older, the village chief did not have many days to live. Even if he offends the gods, he is alone!

"Come on, light the fire!"

A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the high priest, but he didn't pay attention to the village chief at all, and directly waved his scepter and greeted him.

"Hula......"

The sound of burning torches was extremely harsh, and more than a dozen young men dressed slightly different from those of the high priest, all holding torches, went straight to the haystack.

"Hoo ......"

More than a dozen torches were thrown onto the haystack at once, and the haystack was ignited by the torches in the blink of an eye.

The fire is rising, and in the eyes of the villagers of Lingru Village, the flames are also rising. (To be continued.) )
