Volume 1 Learning the Tao Chapter 8 Human Sacrifice

The world is unforgiving, as it often is.

Zhuang Yu and a group of children were driven along the path to the top of the mountain, followed by ordinary villagers.

The top of the hill is small, with stone steps and several stone bars erected, with twisted symbols carved on a red background and black vines entwined around it.

The man in charge of the sunspot stepped forward, put his hand on his chest, lowered his head and recited an unknown incantation, and the group of villagers behind him fell to the ground and trembled. Originally, the wind was beautiful and the sun was beautiful, but the sky was suddenly dark, and a dark cloud in the distance quickly approached, setting off a strong wind and blowing on the mountain.

......A disgusting voice came out of the black clouds, raging Wushan, but I don't know what the so-called gods are.

Zhuang Yu looked at the black clouds, it was very ridiculous, it seemed that there must be some kind of demon beast, with the title of god, to do evil, devour living beings, and improve the Tao.

The majestic law seen in the same star field has no weather at all, and it is still hiding, real livestock.

The leader man said.

"Shangxian, twelve children are enough, and please ask the fairy master to bless the safety of one party and let everyone else go. ”

"Arrogant laughter ......".

"Rest assured, this seat has its own fixed number, within this year, the radius of a hundred miles will be absolutely smooth, you are ready for next year's seeds, the more the better......"

The black clouds wrapped Zhuang Yu and other children, the dark clouds faded, the voice became smaller, and the sky dawned, leaving everyone on the top of Miao'er Mountain to look at each other, and suddenly escaped death.

In a certain mountain cliff, a naturally formed cave mansion is a splendid nature, a place of creation, but it has become a place for a snake and livestock to settle down.

For thousands of years, the snake pretended to be a god for the villagers, devoured living beings, congenital virgins, and cultivated Taoism. The Great Wilderness Nanshan Mountain, abandoned by no owner, has become a place where many livestock do evil and persecute demons in the world.

In the mountain, a dark river flows, passing through the nest of the snake. It is a very good place, from the direction of Qimen, the natural creation of mountains and rivers, implicitly contains heavenly principles, and the cave is full of beautiful water, which is really the diversion of dragon veins, hiding from heaven and earth.

Zhuang Yu and the others were carried into the mountain by the black clouds, and only then did they see everything clearly. A black snake is in the cold pool, with a huge flat head and big concave eyes, staring at the sacrificial "seed", the snake is swallowing, looking at the food.

In the south of the black water, the glorious water comes out, the snake is thousands of feet, the mouth speaks people's words, and the practice has reached a thousand years. The big snake looked at Zhuang Yu for some reason, a little surprised.

"Jie Ji ......"

"You should be lucky enough to be a part of me, and there will be no pain, in exchange for the peace of your family......" The big snake said to Zhuang Yu with a big mouth, spitting out words.

"If he can transform and leave this place one day, it can be regarded as a ......reincarnation of cause and effect for you and other ancestors for thousands of years," he said, with a bright red mouth and wind out of thin air.

Zhuang Yu's group of twelve children were sucked into their mouths and swallowed alive, and the black snake coiled on the natural stone pillar and began to refine the food in their stomachs.

The snake's belly was long and narrow, and Zhuang Yu felt that he had entered the abyss, and it took a long time to land. The children all fell into the slime, their breathing was short, their faces were pale, the juice secreted by the snake gall began to corrupt their bodies, and their whole spirit began to plummet. All the children were speechless, and probably the moment they saw the snake in the cave, they were determined to die.

Zhuang Yu thought for a while: Ah Ye, it's over, but I didn't expect that as soon as I landed inexplicably, I lost my life in the belly of the snake and became rations. The space in the belly of the snake is huge, and the little girl Shi Xiaoke grabbed Zhuang Yu's cuffs tightly with one hand, and the acidic gastric juice submerged half of Xiao Ke's body, and the child was seriously poisoned and breathed in a hurry.

Zhuang Yu struggled hard, pulling up a few children to lean to his side, most of the children had lost their instincts and were insensitive. Gradually, even he felt a tingling in his skin.

The young man was unwilling, and desperately rushed to the snake's tail.

Hit the snake and hit the seven inches.

Zhuang Yu's mind suddenly popped up a sentence, which made him have some ideas when he should have given up, and moved forward for a long time, and suddenly a layer of black-green flesh membrane in front of him cut off the snake's abdomen, with a large gallbladder inside, and a smaller bright bead next to it, conspicuous and abnormal, accompanied by a burst of snake shadows. The young man desperately smashed the diaphragm with his thin arm and head, but there was no movement, and his hands and feet were weak, and he gave up baldly.

Shi Xiaoke kept following Zhuang Yu, without speaking, she saw Zhuang Yu frantically knocking on the diaphragm, and she also raised her tired little hand, hitting hard, again and again.

A little strength, a lot of determination.

Zhuang Yu next to him drooped his head, his eyes were empty, Shi Xiaoke once again desperately used his little hands, his head hit the diaphragm, and he was getting harder and harder...... The limbs were numb, they lost their consciousness, and they clung to their instincts again and again, smashing their little hands and heads against a wall in front of them.

Once, twice, three times............ Completely stunned, repeating the action.

Zhuang Yu was shocked by the little girl, and her heart was shocked by this girl again. It turned out that she was not as desperate as a child, and the little girl was still there, so why give up.

Zhuang Yu called out to Shi Xiaoke, but did not get a response, only then did he see it carefully, the child's pupils were dull, his eyes were black, his breath was weak, and he waved his little hand again and again with faith.

Looking at Shi Xiaoke, whose breath was slowly draining, Zhuang Yu roared like crazy, and once again desperately crashed into the location of the gallbladder.

"God, please open your eyes, if you don't save me, you can save these children...... If I don't care about the sky, I will destroy the sky......" Zhuang Yu roared, forgetting that he was only a teenager. The whole head was bleeding, the space was blocked, and he became like a madman, and his breath was dying.

When he felt that the last wisp of the little girl's breath was cut off, Shi Xiaoke's hand was forever frozen in mid-air, and he stopped holding his fist.

Zhuang Yu poured out a mouthful of blood in his heart, used all the strength of his body to pretend to the diaphragm, the entire arm of his right hand was torn, blood was spit out from his mouth, and he fell down in a daze.

At the same time as he lost consciousness, colorful light appeared all over his body, instantly illuminating the entire stinky snake belly, spreading outward, the snake was broken by the waist, and then the light brightened again, and the big snake was completely sluggish and lifeless.

The colorful light gently wrapped Zhuang Yu, gradually retreating, as if reluctant, and the broken glass golden body of the woman in the star field appeared in his mind again, and the memory became more and more blurred, until it was nothing. The boy intuitively felt that some of the most important things in life were completely absent, and his heart was like a knife.

In the depths of the starry sky, there was a faint sigh of a woman, and the last bit of contact with Zhuang Yu was completely severed.

I don't know how long I was in a coma, when Zhuang Yu woke up, the whole person was unharmed, and the injured arm was intact, and the colorful light that I only remembered protected me, and I couldn't remember the stars of the woman's law in the galaxy in my mind.

He hurriedly looked at the lifeless serpent, and estimated that his death was unknown from beginning to end. Shi Xiaoke lay quietly on the side, breathing evenly.

Zhuang Yu hurriedly crawled over to check the little girl's injury, but unexpectedly, the snoring sound penetrated his ears, and he saw that the little mouth was drooling and squirming, as if he had dreamed of something delicious.

The heart is really big, Zhuang Yu looked at Shi Xiaoke who fell asleep a little strangely, but he was even more grateful for the colorful light just now and protected this little self, the other children were already in the womb and had no life, Zhuang Yu blamed himself a little and didn't protect everyone.

After making sure that Xiao Ke was safe and sound, Zhuang Yu began to walk around, inspecting this natural mansion, white stalactites, and some glowing stones on the surrounding stone walls, and the cave was not very dark. After about 500 steps to the left, the exit was brightly lit, and it was a cliff.

Zhuang Yu returned the same way and began to search the entire lair. A pile of colorful stones caught his attention, but he really couldn't recognize it, so he held it in his arms and piled it up next to Shi Xiaoke, looking for something that might be useful again.

Except for a lot of rotten clothes, nothing else was found, so Zhuang Yu picked up a half-cut blade that had been embroidered and turned it out, and hurriedly picked it up. I took it to the stone and grinded it, and finally there was something that came in handy.

It may be that the sound of sharpening the knife woke up the little girl, Shi Xiaoke sat up slowly, rubbed his eyes, and was immediately attracted by the stones that Zhuang Yu stacked next to her, very curious, so he picked one up, and always felt that it could be eaten, so he put it in his mouth and swallowed it.

When Zhuang Yu, who was sharpening the blade, saw it, he immediately rushed over, grabbed Shi Xiaoke's legs, and shook his head down.

"Xiao Ke, hurry up, spit it out, it's a stone, if you eat it, you will die......" Zhuang Yu didn't know how to explain it to her, so he planned to scare her.

That knows, the little girl smiled happily, not a little afraid.

Zhuang Yu was a little confused, put her on the ground, touched her little belly and asked.

"Does it hurt, how can you eat stones...... , will really die. ”

"It doesn't hurt, big brother, you see, you can't take it out anyway......" The boss who said with a small mouth open, motioned to Zhuang Yu to look at her mouth, and really couldn't take it out.

"In the future, you can't stuff everything into your mouth, and if you don't obey, I won't take you. Zhuang Yu was helpless and planned to tease her.

Who knows, as soon as the words fell, the little girl cried silently, drooping her head, and without the liveliness just now, Zhuang Yu hurriedly comforted her.

"Big brother, you can listen to you later, don't leave ......me behind," Shi Xiaoke cried.

"Then you have to promise me that you won't eat indiscriminately, even if you're hungry, and in the future, when the big brother is here, you won't be starved, I promise." Zhuang Yu replied.

Who knew that the little girl cried even more fiercely.

From childhood to adulthood, the little girl has not had a good life at all, except for Ah Dad, no one is distressed, and the sudden goodness made Shi Xiaoke's small heart collapse a little.

"Also, my name is Zhuang Yu, don't call me a big brother in the future, I'm not very big...... It's good to call Brother Zhuang......" Zhuang Yu said seriously.

"Well, Zhuang...... Brother Zhuang," Shi Xiaoke sobbed and shouted Zhuang Yu several times.

Zhuang Yu touched his little head, extremely relieved.

Then, he picked up the broken blade and walked towards the gallbladder of the big snake, Zhuang Yu felt that there must be a treasure inside, at least the white bead.
