Looking up at Fanyin, the face was still dusty, and nothing could be seen.

Lingyu was immersed in her own thoughts, and didn't pay attention to Fanyin, and glanced thoughtfully behind her, and in the forest, which should have been empty, a strange red figure suddenly flashed.

Before dawn the next day, mist shrouded the river, and orange tongues of fire danced around, turning the half-bright sky into a layer of dusk.

The sun seemed to be a little weak, and it rose heavily from the surface of the river, but it could not dispel the mist on this side, and the river surface was sparkling, and the black water was surging.

Lingyu stood on the observation deck, looking down at everything around her from top to bottom, and could only see clusters of lights constantly shaking in an orderly manner on the ground, as if she was rehearsing something.

It was already early in the morning when they came out of the forest, and when they arrived here, Lingyu vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell where it was wrong, and asked Sanskrit next to him, but he was at a loss and didn't feel anything.

Lingyu felt like a thoughtless puppet now, controlled by an invisible line to move forward.

The two of them went down the river, and they wanted to find someone at the dock to inquire about what happened just now, but who knew that as soon as the group of people saw Lingyu, it was like seeing a ghost, one was dumbfounded, and the people who were not working stopped talking, and they all surrounded them with the things in their hands.

"The dragon god is going to be angry, the dragon god is going to be angry!"

Before they even had time to speak, the group of people even cried and screamed with sticks and hit them, Fanyin hurriedly protected Lingyu in his arms, sealed in his hand, and quickly shook a hole, Lingyu only felt a tightness on his waist, and a warm voice came from his ears: "Don't be afraid." ”

Then they flew towards the nearest ship, and as soon as they disembarked, the group pounced on them as if they were dying.

"Give us back the dragon god Niangniang, put the dragon god Niangniang down!"

Fanyin cut the cable on the boat and wanted to push the boat away with spiritual power, but the gang of people had been mixing on the river all the year round, and they had already felt the things on the boat clearly.

In just a moment, the ropes around him fell like rain, and Lingyu was tightly protected in his arms by Fanyin, only to know that his spiritual power had been exhausted to a certain point, otherwise he would not have brought her here, and there was no room for resistance in the face of this group of people.

The smell of blood spread from his nose, Lingyu's eyes were red, and he wanted to break free from his embrace, but he seemed to use all his strength to hug her, and used his body to form an invisible copper wall to block the rain of bullets outside for her.

"Stop fighting, stop fighting!" Lingyu's voice spread muffled from Fanyin's arms, but it was suppressed by the shouting and scolding around her.

"Dead demons, dare to touch the dragon god Niangniang! Shoot you, shoot you! "The group of people were red-eyed, even if Sanskrit fell to the ground, they would not let go.

"Let go of my Sanskrit, let go of me!" Her voice was a little choked, and she struggled desperately to get out of his arms, and when they saw her face closely, the stick in her hand hesitated and landed somewhere else.

"Don't fight, don't fight, what do you want to do, make it clear first!"

"There's nothing to say to this monster, brothers! Kill this monster and take back the dragon god Niangniang! ”

Seeing that they were about to die, holding her arm and not relaxing, Lingyu took a lot of effort to pull out the hairpin from her head and put it around her neck.

"If you kill him! I'm dying here too, so you can't give an account to the dragon god! ”

The group met her resolute look, and the sticks in their hands unconsciously stopped.

Taking advantage of their pause, Fanyin tried her best to get up with Lingyu and jump into the water, but was trampled on the ground, Lingyu heard his suppressed snort, looked up, but saw that there was still a faint smile on that face.

As if to tell her, don't be afraid, I'm here.

Lingyu felt as if his heart was being held tightly, and the group of people was one by one, and they were forced to separate, but Fanyin's strength was too great, and he would rather be beaten than let go, and seeing that they were about to cut off his hand with an axe, Lingyu grabbed his hand and motioned for him to let go.

At that moment, there seemed to be a flash of struggle in his ancient Danfeng eyes.

"After this catastrophe, we will be married." Lingyu smiled and broke the hand around her waist.

Fanyin's eyes were a little blurry, and he could only watch the figure pull her away, and his willpower seemed to have finally reached his head, and he closed his eyes when the clothes in his hands turned into rags.

Lingyu vaguely saw something flashing in his eyes, and she thought that it should be the moisture condensed by the fog too much, or the water that was collapsed to the surface of the river during the fight just now.

Lingyu originally thought that they just recognized the wrong person and recognized her as an untouchable figure in the local area, but when they escorted her to the mansion, Lingyu found a strange phenomenon.

And she's clearly the exception.

She and Sanskrit were separated, even if they didn't want to, but now they had no choice.

The tiger fell in Pingyang and was bullied by dogs.

When he was sent to the house, Lingyu didn't forget to explain: "If I can't see him when I go out, all you see will be a corpse!" ”

Something flashed in the leader's eyes when he heard this, and his attitude towards her was not as respectful as he imagined, but a little cold and disdainful, and he only responded lightly, and then let the door be locked, and walked in another direction with Sanskrit sound.

It's just that Lingyu is gone, and Fanyin, who was dragged halfway, suddenly stood up, and the people around him were also extremely respectful to him.

Hearing that there were no footsteps outside, Lingyu was about to look for a way to escape, but heard two people talking outside.

"Patriarch, these are the two unlucky guys you found there, it seems that there are no women in our town for a long time!" A somewhat hoarse voice sounded first, sounding like a young man who had just come of age.

"It's said that I was caught from the docks, and I'm going to elope!" Then, a slightly jerky voice lowered its voice.

"If you want me to say that man is really a man! Dare to rob a woman with the dragon god, hey, you must know that I have lived for more than 20 years, but I have never even touched a woman's hand. The young man felt a little sorry.

"Who isn't, I heard that when I caught them, the man passed out and hugged her and didn't let go, and I didn't let go, after all, the woman looked like a tsk~" The older ones also seemed to be full of yearning.

"If I touch it, I'm afraid it's worth dying!"

"You two, what are you doing!"

The conversation between the two was quickly interrupted by a middle-aged voice, which soon fell silent as a burst of compliments fell.

The two janitors sounded like they were foolish.

Lingyu flashed with a flash of inspiration, and suddenly lost the mind to escape, and chatted with the outside.

As she thought, the two people outside were indeed good at talking after all, and soon Lingyu figured out from them why this town was so weird.

It turns out that they are close to the river here, and they send water all the year round, and as long as it rains, it floods, washing away many people's homes, and the people complain, and the government does not act, only cares about their own eating, drinking and having fun, resulting in fewer and fewer people here.

It wasn't until 10 years ago that a sorcerer came to the village and said that if only two young women were sacrificed on the 15th day of August every year, the flood could be stopped.

He was able to turn stones into gold, bribe the people of the government with gold, help him with errands, rob women to sacrifice, and indeed stopped the flood, plus the people of the government helped to build momentum, and soon ushered in a large number of supporters in this area.

In this era, women are already redundant, not to mention natural and man-made disasters, women's physical weakness makes them unable to resist, and can only be treated like animals.

Even if there is no such wizard, because of the continuous floods, women are also a vulnerable group here, and it is a pity for everyone.

There are even people who buy and sell wives and daughters for a mouthful of food, and after the flood, many people in the local area do not have enough to eat, so they choose to eat the flesh of the dead and starving all over the land.

That's what human nature is.

Most of them are for the sake of self-preservation.

The first year was fine, but the next year without the flood food income could not keep up with the gang, not to mention that most of them lost their ability to work in the flood, so they went to the wizard.

Wizards are also willing to help them, but they have to pay a greater price, which is to give more women.

In this way, exchanging women for food and living in peace, the demand is more and more every year, and there are fewer and fewer women here, but life is getting better and better.

Ten years have passed, there are basically no women here, and the young man who guards Lingyu outside, his mother was caught when he was a child and sacrificed as a young woman.

Many times he doesn't understand this system, but more often, in the face of the persuasion of the people around him and the life in front of him, he still chooses to swallow his anger.

Before losing their mother, they were displaced everywhere, and they didn't even eat white-flour steamed buns, but after losing their mother, they suddenly had wine and meat, except for no woman, but they lived like a fish in water.

After a long time, he forgot what his mother looked like and what a woman should look like.

Lingyu vaguely mentioned to them that she had seen the group of people when she came, but the two of them were unexpectedly silent, and she told them that she was from outside and did not belong to this town.

"Hey, we can actually hear that you are not from here, but who made you unlucky and broke into here." The young man lamented.

"I don't think it's unlucky."

"Huh? You're such a strange person! The young man seemed stunned by her words.

"Blessings and misfortunes depend, God must have wanted to tell me something, so he would give me this ordeal." After chatting deeply with the two of them, Lingyu leaned against the door and looked at the moonlight that came out of the gap.

At that moment, time seemed to be around her.

"You...... This person is really not an ordinary stranger. The young man muttered, but the older one was silent.
