Chapter 37: [Prayer for Rain Village] Guess of the Life Road
Once horrific thoughts take root in the mind, it is difficult to get rid of them.
Grain.
When these two words appeared in front of the three of them, they could no longer linger.
"No......"
"Even if it's for food, it's not going to kill people!"
Liu Chengfeng gasped.
It wasn't the killing itself that he feared.
It was the reason why the villagers killed Guangxiu's family...... Just because of a mouthful of food.
"This kind of thing is not the first time, in ancient times, once there was a great drought and famine, there would even be people who changed their children and eaten, many people think this is just an exaggerated description, but in fact, it is not an exaggeration at all!"
Ning Qiushui's tone was heavy.
"Of course, it's not the scariest thing."
"After all, people in that environment can only survive by following the law of the jungle!"
"What is really terrible is that those who do evil, after surviving the crisis, cover up their crimes through lies, and also blame the victims for their crimes!"
"Back then, what Guangxiu's family was robbed of was not only food, but also their lives and ......reputations."
Bai Xiaoxiao also sighed with sympathy:
"That's the scariest ......"
"Everyone knows that you are innocent, but no one stands up for you, they even join together to make up your absurd crimes, and then point your finger at your nose and judge you......"
"I think I can probably understand why this village has such a terrifying ghost......
"It's not just a matter of life and death."
The three of them felt heavy and did not continue, and returned to their guest house in silence.
By now, they had been able to guess what had largely happened in the village, but they had not yet found a way out.
Time flies, and it's time for dinner again.
Due to everyone's caution, except for Tang Jiao, everyone did not reduce the number of personnel.
There are seven people left.
During the meal, everyone sat at the table in silence.
Only Luo Yan, staring at her plate, kept laughing.
She smiled strangely and looked very dazed, not knowing what she had experienced in the guest house alone in the afternoon.
Ning Qiushui looked at Luo Yan, always feeling that she seemed to have seen this smile somewhere, but she couldn't remember it for a while, and of course the others also noticed this, and quietly stayed away from Luo Yan's position.
So, a very strange picture is presented on the round dining table -
Luo Yan sat in one position alone, there was no one on either side, and the remaining six people were all squeezed to one side.
"Luo Yan, Luo Yan!"
"What are you laughing at?"
Finally, someone couldn't help but speak.
It's Zong Fang, the girl who is so bold.
She was very scared of Luo Yan's appearance.
But Luo Yan didn't reply to her at all, holding chopsticks in her hand, and she didn't pick up vegetables, just stared at the plate in front of her, chuckling from time to time, as if someone next to her was telling her a joke and teasing her happiness.
This scene was really weird, Zong Fang felt that if there weren't so many people in the room, she would definitely run out as soon as possible without looking back!
"She, what the hell is going on with her?"
The man with glasses also panicked.
But no one answered his question, because no one knew.
Ning Qiushui was still eating with his head down, but from time to time he would raise his eyes to look at Luo Yan, as if he was observing something.
Until at some point, he suddenly stopped picking up vegetables.
He remembered.
He finally remembered why he felt that the smile on the corner of Luo Yan's mouth was so familiar......
Because of this smile, he had seen it on Mi Lan's face not long ago!
At that time, the goddess approached Mi Lan, who was sick in bed, and recited some incantation to her, sprinkled something, and then Mi Lan showed such a smile!
Could it be ......
Did the goddess do it?
What does she want to do?
Just as Ning Qiushui was pondering, Luo Yan suddenly stood up in a trance and walked towards the door.
She walked like a walking corpse, looking lifeless.
But the people in the room didn't dare to stop her.
It wasn't until she walked away that Zong Fang spoke weakly:
"We ...... Are we going to die? ”
There was a panic and crying in her tone.
"There are only four days left, and we have basically been to all the attractions we can go to, and we have basically searched for all the clues we can find...... But I haven't found out where I am! ”
"Inside this door...... Is there no way out at all? ”
When people are under great pressure, their emotions will be the first to collapse.
And once the emotion collapses, the next thing that suffers is IQ.
People in this state will constantly doubt themselves and everything around them!
Everyone's faces were not very good-looking.
"Hey, Bai Xiaoxiao, have you gotten any useful clues?"
"Speak up and listen, it's better for everyone to help find a way than to go it alone!"
"After all, now we are grasshoppers on a rope!"
Although the glasses man is a newcomer and does not perform well in many aspects, his initiative to find a way to survive also brings a lot of confidence to his teammates.
"Okay—"
"We've found some useful clues, and now we've got seven of them...... Oh no, strictly speaking, there are only six of them, so I'll share what we got. ”
Bai Xiaoxiao told the story.
She first told everyone about the famine in the village a hundred years ago, and then gave a hint about the Bloodgate.
"The hints given by the Bloodgate are usually incomplete, and in fact, in addition to the Good, the Merciful, and the Innocent, there is also an Evildoer in this village."
"And that [evildoer] is the goddess of this village!"
"Conjectures about the way to live...... We need to help the good take revenge, eradicate the evildoers, and help the merciful find its lost head and restore peace to the village. ”
"And we have less than four days to do it all."
"If we don't finish these things before the temple festival, then we will face ...... It may well be the final reckoning between the Good and the Merciful! ”
pS: There should be 4 more today.
