"That's not right either...... If you like it so much, why do you still let the villagers look for a new girl after she dies? It's a bit of a contradiction. ”

Yan Tian interrupted You Li's words, touched his chin and said.

"Wait!"

You Lili seemed to have thought of something, and hurriedly went to the notebook written by the original body, groped for several pages, and pointed to read out about the first dozen pages:

"I don't know what the adults are thinking, but after the first sacrifice to the river god Niangniang, the system of human sacrifice was abolished...... But it was re-enacted ten years after her death...... But despite this, those carefully selected girls, he just glanced at them and disliked them and asked to be disposed of...... Continue to choose later...... After reading the books left by my ancestors, I was puzzled and guilty, is it really the right choice to keep harming people's lives like this? ”

He also wrote a sentence later, but it was erased, leaving a heavy ink stain.

Yan Day: "It seems that there is a rift in the faith of your possessed subject. ”

You Li sighed: "I have personally ended the lives of so many girls, only a beast might as well have no guilt, priest...... In the end, it's just a worker under the hands of the river god. ”

Yan Tian agrees with this.

She flipped through the pages of the First Priest's notes.

[I wanted to apologize to her for my recklessness last time, but I went to look for her at the residence, but I couldn't find her...... I searched all night...... Finally found her at the river beach...... She fell asleep all wet, and like last time, I realized that something was wrong and carried her back...... She woke up and didn't speak, just stared straight at one ......]

[I started to panic and feel helpless...... She seems to be getting farther and farther away from me, and I have found guards to patrol around her house, and there are monsters trying to take her! 】

"Monster...... Soaking wet... It's the god of the river. ”

Yan Tian muttered.

She didn't have any reverence for this god, and it was easy for her to associate the two words together.

You Carp was noncommittal, and he turned the page.

[There is an abnormality at the embankment...... It's probably the biggest monster I've ever seen in my life...... Its head is a bit like a mythical dragon, a bit like a lion, with a pair of horns on top of its head and scales on its body, four legs, and tail...... It does not shy away from spitting out human words, saying! It said that it was responsible for the previous floods, and the reason was that we did not offer it a tribute to its liking! And say you're a god?! 】

[That's bullshit! Are there gods who are in trouble? It's more like a monster than a fairy! 】

Yan Tian blinked.

The writer had always been restrained and gentle in his speech before, and the first time I saw him, he would break open and scold.

[It is ashamed to say that if we give it the tribute it wants, it will always protect us from the floods...... Who would believe that? Or the long-term ...... of building a water control platform]

"This first priest has a very clear mind, but it's a pity that ......"

Yan Tian saw the following words.

[They're crazy.] 】

[They're crazy! 】

[The villagers actually believed it and told me that they didn't want to spend effort to repair the dam and do useless work, and I was laughed at for a while. 】

"Humanity...... There are always countless people who want to get something that can be obtained without hard work......"

Yan Tian laughed and sighed.

[They said that as a priest, I only had to sit and draw drawings and command...... No flattery...... For the first time, I felt sad ......]

[They went crazy and began to look for the woman in the lunar year and the moon at the request of the monster......]

……

[When I saw her tied up by them and put in a crystal cage...... I'm crazy too. 】

Yan Tian's eyes sank, pointed to this passage, raised his head and said to You Li: "The tribute that the river god wants is Miao Miao." ”

There is also a lunar year and a lunar month...... Different from the excellent cultivation seedlings of the pure yin body, this kind of physique Yan Tian has seen a few when he traveled to the world in the past, and the basic body is not very good, and he is riddled with ghosts and monsters, and it is easy to become a furnace prop for evil cultivation.

It can be said that men and women with this kind of physique have no family background and it is difficult to grow up.

This river god looks like a dragon, but there is a thin dragon blood in his body...... But what is certain is that it must be some kind of demon.

Yan Tian's thoughts fluctuated in his mind, and his hand continued to roll down.

She frowned.

You Lili already knew about this, and stroked the torn pages, with a solemn expression: "I searched the whole house, but I didn't find ......"

Yan Tian was silent and continued to turn the page.

The back is all white paper, and there is no trace of writing.

Until the last page.

[She died, but they said that the river god was kind to her, and there were all kinds of nursery rhymes praising their love...... It's a glaring sight. 】

Perhaps, I really shouldn't be this priest. 】

[I want to go.] 】

At this point, it is a must-write.

Yan Tian and You Carp glanced at each other and did not make a sound.

She flipped through the previous pages and looked at the words......

They're crazy, and I'm crazy too.

She's dead, and I want to go.

"You, the old ancestor, are very sad."

You Li's jaw: "Indeed, looking at the genealogy, he was unmarried and had no children in his life, and after the death of the river god Niangniang, he left Qingshan Village alone and gave the priesthood to his younger brother, that is, the direct ancestor of the original body." ”

There was a long silence inside.

In the end, Yan Tian concluded: "What can be determined now is that Miao Miao is the mother of the river god, and the river god likes or wants her, Miao Miao and the first priest are suspected of being in love. ”

"So the treasure—"

While speaking, Yan Tian accidentally swept the book to the ground, and the cover of the book was torn by a corner, and there was actually an extra layer.

You Lili was startled, and hurriedly picked up the book to check it, and pulled out a drawing from it.

A large mussel shell is painted on it.

Here are three sentences:

He was nice to her, but she wasn't happy. 】

[At the festival, I offered a unique treasure, hoping that the river god Niangniang could smile. 】

[It's beautiful, she'll love it.] 】

"With such a large mussel shell, it is estimated that it has already become a fine ...... The first priest was a great priest. ”

You Li: "I seem to have seen a record that the only special supernatural power in the clan has only been passed down from the first generation, but unfortunately there are no heirs." ”

Yan Tian nodded, indicating that he understood.

Just as he was about to say something more, the door was suddenly slammed open.

She immediately used the invisibility charm.

You Lili straightened up the book, read the book, and looked suspiciously at a guard who rushed in with a torch.

The guard was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, and he didn't have time to salute, so he said directly: "My lord! Big things are wrong! The Rite Garden is on fire! Aunt Wan is gathering people to put out the fire, and there is a bride who is practicing calligraphy inside! ”

You Carp and Yan Tian were both surprised.

Especially Yan Tian, who had a guess in his heart, turned sideways and left.

You Carp realized her departure and asked quietly, "What caused the fire?" ”

The guard shook his head: "I don't know, I'm still investigating, do you want to go over and have a look?" ”

You carp bowed his head, casually straightened his clothes, followed the guards and rushed to the ceremonial courtyard.
