"Human sacrifice!?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the goshawk village was in an uproar.

For most ordinary people, they just think that this matter is extremely cruel, but they do not understand the horror and consequences.

But as a disciple of Tianhang Mountain, Ziyu naturally heard all kinds of rumors about the outer gods.

She raised her eyebrows, stepped forward to look at Liu Handou and asked, "You want to summon the outer gods?" ”

Liu Handou shook his head again and again with a pale face: "This matter is really not clear!" I was also coerced by the ghost crow village, I only know that these crow slaves were sacrificed as sacrifices and fed to the crow god, but what is the crow god, what does it look like, the small one is really never seen! ”

Liu Handou said this, his face was pale, and his forehead was covered with sweat, and it didn't look like he was lying.

"In the past, the ghost crow village also needed crow slaves, but why did you scavenge so many crow slaves from various cottages this time?" Chu Qingxiao asked again.

Compared with Ziyu's surprise, Chu Qingxiao was prepared for this.

In fact, after meeting Nangong Yue yesterday, Chu Qingxiao faintly sensed that something was wrong.

But although he was prepared, he did not expect that the matter had reached such a serious level.

"This ......," Liu Handou looked hesitant.

And this kind of hesitation is obviously not something Chu Qingxiao can tolerate, and his eyes are filled with frost.

Liu Handou, who felt this, hurriedly said: "It's not that the little one deliberately conceals it, but the small one is just an ordinary minion in the ghost crow village, I don't know much about things, and all I know about this matter is only rumors from others, I don't know if it's true or not, I'm afraid that I will mislead you young heroes!" ”

"It's okay for you to say it!" Chu Qingxiao said.

Liu Handou swallowed a mouthful of saliva with a grunt, and then said: "I also heard that it is said that the owner of the village has lived for more than a hundred years, and it is all by sacrificing to the crow god, and the crow god gave the elixir, so that the owner of the village maintains his youthful appearance." ”

"But recently, the owner of the village seems to be no longer satisfied with just maintaining the youth of the body, he wants the crow god to come here and give him more gifts, so he wantonly captures the crow slave and sacrifices it to the crow god, as a sacrifice, to speed up the pace of the crow god's arrival......"

Hearing this, Chu Qingxiao secretly said in his heart: Sure enough.

"It's really an outer god!" Ziyu's face changed suddenly when he heard this, and this Liu Handou's description was not much different from those events that recorded the arrival of foreign and foreign gods.

It is nothing more than the outer gods giving benefits to the believers, and then when the number and greed of the believers swell to a certain extent, the outer gods will promise more generous rewards, allowing the believers to raise sacrifices to help him come here.

And this is different from Zhang Quan being possessed by an outer god.

The outer gods who descend through the demon seed can completely retain a part of their strength, although they are only two or three percent, but for a realm, these two or three percent of the strength is enough to cause a catastrophe, and the outer gods can also further enhance their strength by constantly killing or absorbing believers.

until recovery, or even surpass their full combat power.

And every time something like this happens, it will cause a city or even several cities to be destroyed.

"In that case, isn't it very dangerous for the boss and the old yellow? and Du Lao, who was taken away yesterday, don't you ...... it" Guan Zijin on the side also changed his face and looked ugly when he heard this.

However, Liu Handou seemed to have found an opportunity to win the favor of everyone, and hurriedly said at that time: "I heard that most of the sacrifices in the previous days were just ordinary villagers, and the sacrifices on the last day were the most important thing in summoning the crow god, so Commander Huang and the lord of the village should be fine in a short time." ”

Hearing this, Guan Zijin also looked happy, and hurriedly looked at the woman on the side.

The woman also stepped forward quickly, and took out a thick stack of silver tickets from her bosom.

"All the money in our village is here, there are those brought back by Brother Chu and the boss before, and the ones raised in the village after I came back yesterday, Brother Chu take a look, is this money enough to redeem the boss and Lao Huang!" Guan Zijin looked at Chu Qingxiao with a look of hope and asked.

Chu Qingxiao was stunned and took the silver coin, the silver tickets were thick, and the bottom was the one hundred taels of tickets that Chu Qingxiao brought back, and on top were some silver tickets with very small denominations, some of which looked to be some years old, and were obviously life-saving money carefully hidden by the villagers.

There are also a lot of broken silver and copper plates on the top, and these money, as Guan Zijin said, are all that the people of Goshawk Village can come up with.

Chu Qingxiao couldn't help but be a little touched, he looked up at the people in the courtyard at this time, and they also looked at Chu Qingxiao.

There were old men, there were children, there were women and men.

Their eyes flickered, with anxiety about the future, with apprehension about who was at the helm of their house.

But it is also wrapped in anticipation, even prayer.

They want to save the girl who has been protecting them all along.

But they don't have a sword that they can hold tightly, and they don't have a cultivation that can shuttle through the enemy's formation.

They could only take what they cherished and give everything they could in exchange for that girl.

It's just that these things, which are already the most precious things for ordinary people, are worthless in the eyes of the owner of the ghost crow village.

Chu Qingxiao looked at everyone's expectant eyes and didn't know how to respond for a while.

"These things can't be exchanged for people!" And at this moment, an old but angry voice came at this time.

When everyone heard this, they all looked sideways, only to see an old man with white eyes walking towards him at this time.

It's Xu Lao.

"The ghost crow village wants to summon the outer gods to come to the world, not to mention a thousand taels of silver, even if they move to the gold and silver mountains, they will not stop." Xu Lao said.

Everyone's faces became a little ugly at this time.

"That boss and old Huang ......" Guan Zijin also turned pale and looked lonely.

Seeing this, Chu Qingxiao silently put the silver coins back into the woman's hands, and said under the puzzled gaze of everyone: "Don't worry, this silver money can't be exchanged for Yuejian and Lao Huang, but I will rescue Yuejian." ”

"No matter how difficult it is, I promise, I will save her."

Chu Qingxiao's tone was resolute, and everyone was stunned, but they heard Chu Qingxiao say again: "But before that, there are still some things I want to discuss with you." ”

……

"Sanniang is dead?" Chu Qingxiao came to everything that happened in Wancheng one by one, and of course hid some things that could not be said to everyone about the blood of the Candle Yin God.

When everyone who was already worried about their future situation heard this, their faces darkened.

is not only sad for Sanniang's death, but also uneasy about the fate he is about to suffer.

"The way of this world...... We people, probably deserve to die......" Even people like Guan Zijin couldn't help but sigh in a low voice at this moment.

Chu Qingxiao saw that they were in a low mood, and hurriedly comforted them again: "Everyone! Now is not the time to be sad, although I did not find a solution to the ghost crow village this time, but I found a place for you in Lingque Town, where someone has already arranged a household registration, as long as you arrive in Lingque Town, you can change your face, your identity with your heart, and live in Dayu again, no longer have to live this worrying and precarious life in Goshawk Village! ”

When these words came out, everyone around them was stunned, their eyes were a little strange, and there were bursts of whispers in the crowd.

Being able to take off the identity of a thief and live as a normal person again in this twilight continent is something that most of the villagers of Goshawk Village dream of.

However, Dayu has always been strict with the management of household registration, and it is not easy for one person to regain his household registration, let alone hundreds of people.

It's not that everyone doesn't believe Chu Qingxiao, it's just that this matter is really too unbelievable, which inevitably makes everyone a little difficult to accept for a while.

"It seems that your old man in Tianhang Mountain is not an ordinary person." When Xu Lao heard this, he sighed inexplicably at this time.

Chu Qingxiao just looked at everyone and said again: "Although I have only joined Goshawk Village for a month or two, Zhaozhao and I have received a lot of help from you, and we regard you as family members in our hearts, and please don't doubt it." ”

"The ghost crow village is aggressive, Taixuan Mountain is already a place of right and wrong, stay here, things will only get worse and worse, you have to make a decision as soon as possible!"

Chu Qingxiao's attitude was sincere, and his tone was a little anxious.

Everyone was still hesitating, but Guan Zijin said: "I think Brother Chu has a point, it is better to believe Brother Chu for a while if you stay here and die!" ”

It's not that everyone doesn't want to leave, but they lack the courage to take this step, and Guan Zijin's statement undoubtedly gave everyone some confidence, and more and more people agreed at the moment.

"But didn't you just say that the imperial court would send people to suppress bandits, and the road to Cangzhou is likely to be blocked by the imperial court's troops, should we make a detour to Huanzhou?"

But someone else asked at this time.

As soon as these words came out, everyone who was still looking forward to it suddenly showed worry on their faces again.

If you make a detour to Huanzhou, it will take at least two months to go to Lingque Town, and with so many people going together, it will be a big trouble if it attracts the attention of people with intentions on the road.

"I discussed it with Miss Meng, and Miss Meng is an old acquaintance with one of the generals in that army, and we want to try to contact him to see if we can make him accommodating when the time comes, so that we can leave." Chu Qingxiao said.

In the process of rushing to Goshawk Village last night, Chu Qingxiao discussed this matter with everyone and thought of this method.

Maybe Nangong Yue won't sell Meng Jin's face, but Meng Ziliang is the husband hand-picked by their future helmsman, and the probability of success with him is still very high.

Originally, according to the original plan, it was to let Meng Ziliang go to explore Nangong Yue's tone first, but now the situation on Taixuan Mountain is not optimistic, and they can only take risks, so they directly let everyone pack up their things and set off in the shortest time.

Although this approach is a bit risky, but today they killed the people of the Ghost Crow Village, and the Ghost Crow Village will never let them go, and staying will definitely attract the main force of the Ghost Crow Village to besiege them.

"What about you, Brother Chu?" After making these arrangements, Guo Zijin looked at Chu Qingxiao again and asked.

Chu Qingxiao said: "I have to find a way to save Yuejian." ”

"The master of the ghost crow village is like a cloud, and the guard is tight, how can you save it alone?" Guan Zijin asked with some concern.

"I don't have any plans at the moment." Chu Qingxiao said a little helplessly, "But no matter what, I can't watch Yuejian fall into danger." ”

Seeing that he had made up his mind, Guan Zijin didn't want to say more.

"I'm with you!" And at this moment, Chu Zhaozhao suddenly spoke.

Chu Qingxiao's face suddenly changed when he heard this, and he hurriedly said: "Zhaozhao, this matter is dangerous, I ...... it."

"It is precisely because of the danger that I want to be with you, Song Guicheng and they saved you alone, I also inherited their kindness, this debt, we have to repay it together!" Chu Zhaozhao said resolutely.

"Shouldn't I be with me?" Ziyu on the side looked displeased, "Uncle Xiao asked me to look at the two of you, you are like this, this girl has to go to death with you!" ”

Although Ziyu's tone was full of anger, she did not hesitate to step forward and walked to the side of the two.

This duplicitous appearance made Chu Qingxiao and Chu Zhaozhao couldn't help but smile at each other at that time.

Although the brothers and sisters of the Meng family also have the heart to go together, they still need to negotiate the matter of leading to Cangzhou, so they can only give up.

The matter was settled, and without further ado, everyone went to their homes to pack what they were going to take with them.

The small courtyard suddenly fell silent.

At this moment, Xu Lao walked up to Chu Qingxiao, although he was blind, he stretched out his hand to accurately point out where Chu Qingxiao, Chu Zhaozhao and Ziyu were standing.

"You ......"

"Follow me."

After saying this, no matter how the three of them reacted, he turned around and walked away slowly.
