Chapter 511: By the Yellow River
Dark, silent, closed, cold, and clogged in the air, this is a small basement, closed on all sides, dim, unable to see five fingers, as if there is only endless darkness and silence, and there are some mixed unpleasant smells in the air, like the smell of urine, and like the smell of sweat, and some disgusting smell of blood and rancidity, in the dark, two women huddled in the corner of the wall.
The two women looked obviously a pair of sisters, their faces were six or seven points similar, their facial features were quite exquisite, especially a pair of willow eyebrows, they looked very beautiful, and they both looked very young, the older ones looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, and the younger ones seemed to have just reached fifteen or sixteen years old, and the two sisters curled up in a dark corner, their faces were pale, and their eyes were full of uneasiness.
I don't know if it's because of fear or because of the cold, the two sisters' bodies have been trembling slightly: "Sister, are we going to die, I'm so scared?Woo~~" In the dark, my sister asked with a whimper.
The older girl also trembled when she heard this, and there was a huge panic and uneasiness in her expression, but when she saw her sister who was younger than herself in her arms, she knew that she had to show strength at this time, even if she was afraid and afraid in her heart, she couldn't show it, because she was her sister's only spiritual pillar at the moment, her lips moved and she comforted: "It's okay, it's okay, don't be afraid, it's okay, don't be afraid, with my sister here, it's going to be fine, don't worry, it's a nightmare, it will pass soon." The palm of his hand gently patted his sister's back, and the sister opened her mouth to comfort.
"But, but they said they wanted to marry us to the river god, I heard people say that marrying the river god will die, I'm so scared, woo, I don't want to die, sister, I miss my father and mother, woo, I'm so afraid"
In the dark, the younger girl couldn't help but whimper, fear, fear, uneasiness all kinds of emotions in the heart, although there was her sister by the side to comfort, but she was not young, naturally the situation was clear, the older girl was also silent when she heard the words, her expression was sad, she couldn't speak for a long time, although she pretended to be strong, but in essence she was only an eighteen-year-old girl.
"Sister, what do you say is going on with Dad and Mom, do Dad and Mom know about our situation and come back to save us?" In the darkness, the younger girl whimpered for a while, and then asked her sister.
"Don't worry, we're missing, my father and mother must have found out, maybe they're already looking for us now, they will definitely find us." The older girl heard the sound and spoke again, her eyes also showed a look of hope, thinking of her parents, her heart also ignited a little hope, this time their family of four passed through here, they and their sister disappeared, their parents will definitely find out soon.
Thinking like this, a glimmer of hope also rose in the heart of the older girl, and the younger girl in her arms also looked a little better when she heard this, and a look of hope rose in her eyes.
"Bang Bang!" "Bang Bang!" "" In the darkness and silence, suddenly, clear footsteps sounded, like the sound of the soles of shoes stepping on bluestone slabs.
In the dark, the two girls who had been in a slightly stable mood heard the footsteps, and they instantly became nervous and frightened again: "Sister." The young girl looked at her sister in fear.
The latter also looked frightened, staring nervously at the source of the sound at the door, and holding the younger girl tightly in his arms with both hands.
"Click!" was like the sound of an iron lock opening, and then the door was opened, and the sight lit up instantly, and a group of people walked in with torches.
The two sisters in the corner instantly curled up in fear, looking at the people in horror, especially the scary old woman who looked like a goddess, with a withered face and deep-set eye sockets, and behind the goddess, there were some strong men dressed like ordinary residents, a total of seven people, and a group of people walked in and looked at the two girls curled up together in the corner.
"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you, be obedient, be obedient, come with me. The goddess looked at the two girls in the corner, a somewhat mad smile appeared on her thin face, and said in a kind voice, walked over, and stretched out her thin right hand to the two girls: "Come, follow me out." ”
"Where are you going to take us, what are you going to do?"
The two sisters looked nervously at the goddess in front of them, a little afraid, the older sister spoke, and the goddess smiled kindly when she heard this, and continued to say softly.
"Come, go out first, take a shower, eat, change your clothes, and I'll tell you the rest later. ”
The two sisters flickered uneasily, but finally, after thinking about it, they slowly got up from the ground and followed the goddess.
"Well, that's a good boy. ”
When the goddess saw the sisters' actions, the smile on her face became more and more kind.
"Sister, isn't this the town from last night?"
Coming out of the dim basement and looking at the surrounding scene, the younger girl's face immediately changed, and she said to the older girl next to her, because she recognized it, and the place in front of her was the town where they stayed last night - Fengluo Town.
The older girl's face also changed, and she naturally recognized the surrounding scene, but she didn't speak, just looked around nervously.
At this time, four more women greeted the group.
"River Po. The four women came up and called out to the goddess with a very respectful expression.
"Take them down to eat first, then take a shower and change clothes. ”
The goddess bowed slightly, and then said to the four women, who immediately nodded and walked towards a courtyard with the two girls, followed by several men.
The two girls did not dare to resist, so they could only follow the arrangement of these people nervously, and first followed the four women to a spacious hall, the table was full of food, the dishes were very rich, a large table full of chickens, ducks and fish, although the two sisters were afraid and uneasy, but they did not dare to resist, they listened to these people and ate, and then were taken down by the four women to take a bath.
Finally, two more women came in with two new sets of clothes and the two sisters changed into them, but the moment they changed their clothes, the sisters' faces changed.
Because the clothes I changed into were an ancient bridal outfit in red!!
"Bridal makeup, what are you doing for us to wear bridal makeup, what are you going to do?"
All of a sudden, the two sisters were completely panicked, looking at the women in front of them and shouting softly, in the face of the two sisters' inquiries, most of the women were silent, just looked at them calmly, but did not speak, only one of the women smiled at the two sisters -
"Wearing bridal makeup, of course you are getting married, the two girls are really pretty, and Lord River God will definitely like it. ”
"River god, what river god?" The two sisters' faces turned pale and pale, and they looked at the woman in front of them in horror: "You want to marry us to the river god." ”
Seeing the frightened looks of the two sisters, the smile on the woman's face became even more blooming, and she smiled slightly.
"We have been worshiping the river god for generations, and the river god has also blessed us for generations, and the people of the town are all proud of believing in the river god, and the two of them can be favored by the river god this time, and they were chosen as the wife of the river god, and they will be able to serve the river god forever in the future. ”
"And the two of them married the river god, in exchange for the protection of the river god to my Fengluo Town, I Fengluo Town, the townspeople of Fengluo Town, naturally I will be grateful to the two of them, and I will never forget the two great kindnesses. ”
"So, the two of you should marry the river god with peace of mind, just for us to seal Luo Town, and we will always remember the kindness of the two. ”
The woman smiled, but the smile fell on the eyes of the two sisters, but it was extremely cold.
"No, don't, don't, I don't want to marry the river god, I don't want to bang!"
There was a loud bang, a woman was directly pushed down, the younger girl suddenly pushed down the woman next to her, rushed outside, but just arrived at the door, was directly blocked by the two big men guarding the door, seeing the girl struggling fiercely, a big man directly looked angry, picked up the girl and slammed it to the ground.
"Bang!"
With a sound, the girl was directly smashed to the ground, and the whole person curled up directly into a ball because of the pain, like a shrimp.
"Sister!"
Seeing this, the older girl's face changed drastically, and she hurriedly rushed forward.
"The two of you should obediently accept your fate, you should feel honored to be able to marry Lord River God, if you are not honest, don't blame us for being polite. ”
The woman who had spoken before smiled again when she saw this scene, still with the same smile on her face as before.
"You stay here, watch the two of them, I'll go and see Hepo, when will it start. ”
Finally, the woman gave another command to the others and went outside.
.
"Bang-" "Bang!"
By the Yellow River, in the afternoon, two horse-drawn carriages slowly drove from the far road to the riverside ferry.
"Master, father-in-law, it's time to the Yellow River. ”
On the carriage, near the ferry, Lin Tianqi pulled the reins, stopped the carriage, and said to the ninth uncle and Xu's father in the carriage, the ninth uncle and Xu's father also walked out of the carriage when they heard the words, and in the back, they saw Lin Tianqi in front of him stop, and Xu Dongsheng, who was driving another carriage, also stopped, and then got out of the car with Xu Jie and Xu's mother and walked from behind.
"Master, father, brother. Xu Dongsheng called the three of them, and then also walked up, followed by Xu Jie and Xu's mother.
The group of people is Lin Tianqi, Uncle Jiu, Xu Jie, Xu Dongsheng and Xu's father and mother who went south from Lantian Town, at this time it has been three days since the six people left Lantian Town to go south, and they just rushed to the Yellow River at this moment, looking at the river more than 100 meters wide in front of them, the six people were also blocked here.
"There doesn't seem to be a bridge nearby, you have to find a boat, there is a ferry here, it looks like there should be a boat, wait a minute, just take a break." ”
Uncle Nine said, and everyone nodded when they heard this.
