Chapter 946: Styx River God
As soon as he thought of this, Ye Chen felt that there was a surge of anger in his body, and he stepped out, wanting to save the girl.
"Wait!"
Xuanyuan Xiu's voice sounded in his mind, stopping Ye Chen's movements, and said in a deep voice: "This girl is a member of the Qingyi clan, and now, the people of the entire clan are carnivaling, and they want to use her as a sacrifice and sacrifice to the river god, so as to pray for luck in the coming year, this thing looks absurd in our eyes, but in their eyes, it is extremely sacred." ”
Hearing this, Ye Chen's body was excited, and everything was immediately connected.
The River God Festival has existed in the Qingyi Clan for hundreds, if not thousands of years, and has never changed.
Even if Ye Chen saved the girl, soon, the girl would still be sacrificed to the river god, and what she was facing now was the entire Qingyi clan, the legend of the river god.
"Then what are we going to do now?" Ye Chen asked, the legend of the river god has been circulated in the Qingyi Clan for too long, and it has long been ingrained, no matter how sharp his words are, it is impossible for them to give up the festival.
"If you want to save this girl, you have to start with the river god. Xuanyuan Xiu pointed ahead, and at this time, the wooden sedan chair was lifted by four strong men and walked straight into the dense forest.
Ye Chen immediately followed, hiding in the shadows, as if it was a ghost from the night, so that everyone could not notice.
Xuanyuan Xiu left the Kun Pig Totem, appeared beside Ye Chen, and asked, "You and this girl are just a one-sided relationship, and you can't even say that you are friends, how can you go to great lengths to save her life?"
Along the way, Xuanyuan Xiu also knew a lot about Ye Chen's character, and he expressed his surprise at Ye Chen's sudden move.
"I don't know, maybe it's because I have a sister. Ye Chen thought for a moment and replied.
When he saw this girl for the first time, his head subconsciously thought of Ye Yao, and when he talked to her, this feeling became stronger and stronger, so that Ye Chen became curious.
Moreover, this girl's nature is simple, and she has reminded Ye Chen to leave here many times, which shows that she has a kind heart.
Such a woman, who is at the age of the flowering season, has to be used as a sacrifice and dedicated to the so-called river god, Ye Chen, and she doesn't want to see this happen, so she will stop it.
After finishing speaking, Ye Chen thought that Xuanyuan Xiu would scold him, but unexpectedly, Xuanyuan Xiu actually praised him: "You are going to guard the people, protect the people in your hearts, beloved, when you see this girl, you naturally think of your sister, and it is in line with your heart to take action for this." ”
"But what you did just now was too reckless, and you must keep your composure all the time, otherwise, it may backfire and be detrimental to both parties. Xuanyuan Xiu was like a teacher, teaching Ye Chen all the time, making Ye Chen have a trace of shame on his face, and silently remembered these words in his heart.
The speed of the wooden sedan chair is not fast, and every time you walk a section, you have to stay for a while, come and go, the sun begins to sink down the western mountains, and the sky gradually becomes darker.
"Fall!"
The four big men who carried the sedan chair drank at the same time, stopped, and slowly put down the wooden sedan chair.
At this moment, they had passed through the forest and came to a clearing, and in front of them, there was a very wide river, the water was tumbling and rapid, and the sound of the waves crashing against the bank was as if it were a wild beast roaring, and it was extremely terrifying.
"Xiaoyu, we will send you here, when the full moon rises, the river god will appear in front of you, no matter what it does, you must not resist, otherwise, our race will face a great disaster. One of them reminded in a loud voice.
"Being able to become a sacrifice to the river god is also your luck, so accept it with all your heart. Another interjected.
The four big men were discussing with each other, and the voice was so loud that even if it was nearly a hundred meters away, Ye Chen could hear it clearly, and he couldn't help but have a wave of anger on his face.
These four people are so shameless, they are all members of the Qingyi clan, not only have no pity for the girl at all, but also tell her not to resist, let alone leave, to wait quietly for the river god to appear, and be swallowed in one bite and become a delicacy in the belly.
"I understand all this, don't worry, for the sake of the community, I will not resist. A reluctant smile appeared on the girl's face, she didn't want to be a sacrifice, let alone die, but the order of the clan, she was powerless to resist at all, so she could only obey.
It didn't take long for the four big men to leave one after another.
At this time, the night is getting darker, and the whole mountain is shrouded in darkness, so that people can not see the scene in front of them, only the sound of the increasingly fierce water waves.
The girl sat quietly on the wooden sedan chair, her body trembling with fear, and her eyes looked around in confusion.
Suddenly—
The sound of the water waves disappeared, and under the girl's surprised gaze, a bright light bloomed from the River Styx, like a brilliant starry sky, slowly extending in front of her.
"What a cute female doll, could it be that you are this year's sacrifice?" A female voice full of coquettishness sounded at this time, making the girl's eyes stare slightly.
I saw that in front, the water of the Styx parted, and a passage appeared, and a charming woman wearing a moon-white tassel was slowly walking forward, with a faint smile on her face, like a fairy who does not eat fireworks in the world.
But if you look closely, you can find that the eyes of this charming woman are radiating a greedy light.
"Are you the river god?" the girl raised her head and stared into the eyes of the charming woman, and for a moment, she felt her eyes blur, and her body stood up uncontrollably.
"Good boy, come with me. As soon as the charming woman's eyebrows were raised, the girl walked to her side very obediently, her eyes glazed over, and she was unconscious.
Thundered!
At this moment, a pitch-black light came down in an instant, pressing on the top of the coquettish woman's head, and the coquettish woman was startled, but soon, she came back to her senses, and the brilliance of her whole body flowed endlessly, and the jade hand reached out and slapped directly at the black light.
Rumble!
A rolling crackling sound sounded, the Styx River was frantically rolled up, and the whole space trembled, however, the pitch-black light did not dissipate, but continued to oppress.
The charming woman was surprised in her heart, her body flickered, and she instantly turned into a thousand figures, narrowly avoiding the attack of the black light.
"Who dares to be so bold as to offend the river god!" Thousand figures gathered, and the charming woman reappeared in the field of vision, her eyes scanned the surroundings, and on her body, there was no longer the holy aura just now, but became extremely hideous.
"A fox demon dares to claim to be a god, it's really funny. A voice full of mockery sounded, Ye Chen's footsteps stepped forward, came into the sky, and slowly landed in front of the charming woman.
His eyes swept away, but he saw a faint glimmer of light on the delicate woman's body, her eyes were like blood, and her whole body was full of a sinister and cunning aura.
On her back, there was a phantom of a demon beast, with black hair all over her body, her hooves like snow, and a pair of eyes staring at Ye Chen, blooming with a fierce light.
This woman is not a river god at all, but a fox demon!
