Chapter 214: Crossing the River and Leaving

The patriarch sighed with emotion on his face.

"This river god sacrifice is a rule for hundreds of years, on both sides of the river, our more than a dozen towns and villages, have been abiding by it, this ancestor handed down, how can it be changed if it is said. ”

"In the past, Lord Xu also wanted to abolish the river god prostitution sacrifice, but in the end, the bamboo basket was empty, and he even made chickens and eggs, and lost his official position. ”

Looking at the two young people in front of him, the clan elder sighed: "You committed a murder today, in the final analysis, it is because of the sacrifice of this river god, as for ...... Mortal, after all, we owe your family first. ”

"Yan San, since they have also done something wrong, they need to bear it themselves, so the old man has been thinking about this matter for a long time. ”

Li An couldn't help but say: "Let the clan elder dispose of it." ”

Zhou Fan also said: "If you want to kill, you have to come, but I beg the clan elder to let Li An go, this matter has nothing to do with him." ”

The clan elder shook his head and said, "The matter has come to this, several of them have already paid the price, what is the use of causing more trouble." ”

"I'll let someone deal with this matter, and on the government's side, let's close the case with Song Nan!"

Li An was puzzled: "Clan Elder, why are you?"

The clan elder waved his hand and said, "Ang Li, you are the most potential young man in our town, and in the future, it is very possible to have a title on the gold list." ”

"Now that the old man is old, this will belong to you after all, and what the old man did not succeed in here, I hope to be done in your generation. ”

Li An said abruptly: "Could it be that you ...... old clan?"

The clan elder sighed reminiscingly: "Actually, a few decades ago, the river god sacrifices were all people from our towns, and the eldest sister of the old man was the bride of the river god that year. ”

At that time, the old man was still a teenager, even if there was resistance, but he was powerless, watching the eldest sister sacrifice to the river god, but at that time, he had already made up his mind to abolish it, and in his lifetime, he must abolish the river god sacrifice. ”

"But now, you can all see clearly that with the help of the old man alone, it has not been done, and it has been in vain for decades, but nothing has been achieved. ”

At this time, Li An seemed to suddenly remember something, and said: "Clan Elder, in the past, the river god sacrifices were made in more than a dozen towns in turn, but later it was a woman who bought and sold outside, and it seems that you ...... here."

The words are not finished, but the meaning is self-evident.

I saw the clan elder nodding and said: "Yes, this matter was promoted by the old man's mention, but although it is not selected from more than a dozen towns, even if it is bought, it is a human life, so to speak, it is a sin done by the old man." ”

"However, it is better to cry at home than at home, and people from all over the country naturally don't want to sacrifice to the river god one day with their own daughter, but the custom cannot be abolished, so they have to use this method. ”

Over the years, the old man has also thought about how to stop the sacrifice of the river god, but in the end he was forced to stop thinking about it, but he had to kill himself every year, how sad it was. ”

"The old man has lived a handful of years, and he has not been able to do things for a few years, as for what he wants to do, he can only entrust it to you young people, and what to do in the future depends entirely on your thoughts. ”

Hearing this, Li An couldn't help but be silent, although it was a bought woman, their life and death had long been on a contract, but a living life, sacrificing to the river god, this kind of thing always felt uncomfortable in his heart.

The clan elder looked at the two of them and said slowly: "Yan San and the others, the old man will deal with this case, you don't need to worry, as for the rest, you can do it yourself!"

And Zhou Fan was a little stunned at the moment, hearing this, for some reason there was always a resentment in his heart, but not to anyone, but to the ethereal river god.

Since childhood, Zhou Fan grew up listening to the stories of the river god, according to the older generation, the river god blesses the livelihood on both sides of the river, protects the wind and rain, and it is the river god who blesses the people.

Once upon a time, Zhou Fan also believed in the river god, and his heart was full of awe for him, and there would be a river god sacrifice every year, at that time, Zhou Fan would also go to watch, but he didn't think that there was anything wrong with it.

At that time, the bride who was naturally sacrificed every year, but like ordinary people, what Zhou Fan chose was just a cold bystander, and even thought that the river god had a bride, and the next year would be a good harvest.

It's none of my business, I hung it high, and I thought it was good at that time.

This ridiculous idea lasted for a long time, and even felt a little taken for granted, until the little sister was chosen as the bride, how could the little sister be allowed to sacrifice the bullshit river god!

But in the end, he had no strength, so powerless, and in the two days of the sacrifice, he was locked in a room and couldn't save his little sister.

As for later, from the drunken Yan Sankou, he knew that it was because of the woman they tried to buy, so he let people commit suicide, if it weren't for them, how could it be the turn of the little sister.

It's also considered Yan San's life to be good, I thought that he would end up on the road, but then Song Nan came out, they were all in a gang, so naturally they couldn't let it go.

As for Ang Lee, it was a complete accident, it happened that when dealing with Song Nan, Ang Lee came over, and now, he couldn't hide it.

And outside the window, Nan Tianyi probably understood it, knew the reason, and sighed lightly in his heart, it can only be said that it is a creation that makes people.

As for the dead ones, it can be regarded as retribution, if they hadn't moved evil thoughts, they would not have been killed, it can only be said that it is the reincarnation of cause and effect, and the retribution is unpleasant.

As for reporting the case, Nan Tianyi also lost this idea, since they had already made a decision, wouldn't it be redundant to make a fork by themselves.

As for the so-called sense of justice, Nan Tianyi felt that he didn't seem to have it!

came out this time, just to get interested, as for the arrest of the murderer, shouldn't it be done by the government.

In fact, in the final analysis, the root is still in the river god sacrifice, and such lewd sacrifices should not continue to be absent, but for this matter, Nan Tianyi is really powerless.

You can't force those people with a sword!

If you want to abolish it permanently, you must also do it by their locals, or as the old people of that tribe said, let the government take the lead and directly abolish the river god sacrifice.

However, it requires bold officials, and full-time ability, all of which are indispensable, and Nantian is a person from the rivers and lakes, and it is okay to kill him, but if he governs one side, it is overstretched.

Alas, the night was long, but I didn't expect to watch such a big show.

Calculate the time, and you can get some sleep when you go back.

............

On the second day, the ferry port was opened.

At the ferry, there were boats parked, some of which were already here, and some of which were still unferried.

It may have come early, and when Nan Tianyi and the others arrived, they were still the first to cross the river.

Shen Luo'er and Ye Qingwu sat on the bow of the boat, whispering, and from time to time there was a low laughter, so cheerful.

Mei Ziyu may be a little seasick, sitting there, looking stable, but it can be seen that the whole person endures very hard.

And Nantian stood on the other side, facing the breeze and feeling the humidity on the river.

The boat swung in the river, undulating, and slowly rowed towards the opposite bank as the boatman steered it.

Nan Tianyi looked at the mountains on both sides, the rushing river, and the bottomless river, and sighed in his heart.

Hundreds of years of time, under the turbulent water, how many unjust souls and lonely guests, time is rising, but it is not fair to the grievances and regrets in people's hearts.

The river god sacrifices, such bad habits must be more than one place, and the world is so vast, sad people and sad things are everywhere, and their eyes are just a short place.

Injustice, injustice, everything, is so emotional, under the sky, not all is a perfect life.

Whether happy or sad, different people have different lives and different experiences, it may be a blink of an eye, or a thought, very short, it may produce earth-shaking changes, is a completely different ending.

Fate, for people, may be a lifetime of decades, but for a person, or a family, it may be a hundred years or even hundreds of years.

The unpredictable number of fate, the unpredictable life, everything is unknown, but it seems to be predestined......

I don't know why, a faint sadness rose in Nantianyi's heart, with a slight sadness, the sky is bright, when can it really be like this, between light and darkness, it is this vast world.

The rippling water is like a sorrow in the heart, endlessly.
