The chosen goddess

"You guys, you must go to the mountain, not directly, but from the temple, you and Yu Qianqian have been there, she told me about it, but now she has little time, but she said that you will definitely be able to remember."

Saying this sentence had already consumed all of Zhou Bai's strength, she gasped, and said, "I'm very tired, in order to survive to the end, I won't say more."

"Enter the temple, go up to the top of the mountain, go to the goddess of the Moon Clan, find her, and you will know how to clear the level."

After speaking, Zhou Bai lowered his head, and looked a little similar to Yu Qianqian, it seems that they have entered a state of deep sleep, not dead, but also safe.

This made Except for Zhen more or less relieved, she didn't stay longer, but turned to leave.

Ling Ze followed behind them, his expression dazed.

When he returned to his residence, Xu Hua was already waiting there, in addition to Xu Hua, there were several other villagers, except for Zhen who had met a few times, but he didn't know what they were called.

As soon as these villagers saw Jiezhen coming back, they straightened their faces, and they didn't seem to be ready to talk to Jiezhen, they passed by Jiezhen, and Jiezhen somewhat heard something they were discussing.

"If the sacrifice is not successful, will the goddess condemn her sin."

Except for Zhen who only heard this sentence, she looked back at the backs of the villagers, and waited until they walked out of Xu Hua's house before turning her head.

"Aunt Xu, what can you tell us?"

"I don't think you know the ritual process, but you've all lived here for so long, I need to explain it to you."

Xu Hua looked obviously reluctant, I'm afraid it's because of some rules, that's why she has to do this, just now, I'm afraid I'm also worried that they will cause trouble.

Now that they live in Xu Hua's house, it is inevitable that they will be affected.

Jizhen nodded, didn't enter the room, just stood outside and chatted with Jizhen.

"In addition to the sacrifices, there are other rules for the sacrifice, first of all, it is necessary to elect a goddess, who cannot be too tall or too old, this child is the person who presides over the sacrifice after the sacrifice, there are not many children left in the village, Xiaohong will be a goddess this year, and she will be a three-year-old child next year."

This explains why Wang Yao knew about Xiaohong, but there is still no way to explain why she said that Xiaohong betrayed her.

Seeing that they didn't speak, Xu Hua continued.

"The most important thing for a goddess is to have a wish, and the role of the sacrifice is to fulfill the wish of the goddess, of course, it is the real goddess who fulfills Xiaohong's wish."

"And we have to kneel there and pray for Xiaohong's wishes, and fulfill the wishes of this new goddess, which is to repay the goddess for fulfilling our wishes in the last ten months."

"This is our exchange with the goddess, and it is also the blessing of the goddess, which is also indispensable for sacrifices, originally it was still some cattle and sheep, but since the goddess is so great, of course we have to sacrifice young girls like the goddess!"

The flow of the sacrifice, where it began, has changed.

Seeing Xu Hua's expression gradually go crazy, except for Zhen, he frowned, stretched out his hand, and pressed her.

Xu Hua laughed a few times and stared straight at the real thing.

"Xiaohong's age is still too young, but your grade is a little older, and you are taller, but it seems to be more in line with the requirements of the goddess, in fact, it is most suitable for you to be a sacrifice."

She shook her head to herself, and her expression instantly stiffened, and the moment Xu Hua suddenly got up, Lin Guihao pulled Zhen behind her.

"You really fit the bill, but you don't stay here often, we can't catch you, and you're very careful until the end of the sacrifice, which is also something that can't be helped, next year."

Xu Hua took a few steps forward, as if she wanted to hold the arm of the real person, her expression was very crazy, and her voice was also intense.

"You must be the new goddess next year! You can make a wish now, don't be like Xiaohong, want to know the truth about her brother's illness, this kind of thing, no one can answer!"

Xiaohong wants to know the truth about her brother's illness, but

Somehow, I actually knew about the copy.

And Xiaohong, who was also chosen initially.

Except for the stomach full of words I wanted to say, but looking at Xu Hua, who was crazy, those words choked in my throat and I couldn't say a word.

"Let's go, go up the mountain now."

Except for Zhen Ignoring Xu Hua, he turned around and walked out of the courtyard, walking in the direction of the mountain without looking back.

Many of the villagers rushed back from the place of worship, and they couldn't help but look at them with doubts in their eyes, but no one said anything to stop them.

They had already walked up the mountain several times, except for a hunch that after going up this time, there would be no chance to come back. The rush of the past few days has consumed a lot of strength from the three of them, and before they have gone far, Ling Ze is a little tired.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and stood still, trying to catch his breath, but the feeling of being watched made him look back.

I saw that at the entrance of the mountain road, all the villagers were standing there, their faces like ashes, staring at them closely.

"Sister, look ......."

Except for Zhen and Lin Guihao, they also turned around and saw the villagers at the bottom of the mountain, the two of them had different expressions, but they were not surprised by this.

"They actually used a girl similar to a goddess to sacrifice......

I really don't know what to say about this, whether it is the greed of these villagers and their desire to seek the protection of the goddess, or their ignorance, and the word of mouth of the story, can be passed on to this extent.

"Is this sacrifice done or not......?"

Ling Ze was also very concerned about this, he no longer paid attention to the villagers behind him, but his sight was like maggots attached to the bones, just sticking to the back, it already made people break out in a cold sweat.

"Zhou Bai said that we can find the goddess, this answer must be told by Wang Yao, I guess, she should be the goddess."

After Zhen finished speaking, he didn't speak again, Lin Guihao didn't talk much, and Ling Ze didn't have the heart to speak.

Along the way, there was a lot of silence between the three of them, only the sound of wind blowing and falling.

But the more quiet it is, the more reassuring it becomes.

Except for Zhen's heart, she kept an eye on her surroundings, but until the temple gate, she couldn't believe that nothing had really happened along the way.

She couldn't help but muttered in her heart, could it be that the sacrifice worked?

There is no way to say this directly, after all, even she doesn't believe it, except for Zhen, she shook her head and said with a smile, "Let's go, go to Moon Village."

The three of them glanced at each other, and firmness appeared in each other's eyes, as well as confidence in the people around them, Lin Guihao stretched out his hand and gently pushed open the door of the temple. Z.br>

Just like that night, the strange beauty picture, the huge golden statue, and the secret passage that Yu Qianqian had broken into.

It turned out that they had been so close to the truth.
