"You kill your prey so that you can keep your stomach full so that you can live. ”

"Today's dinner is nothing more than what you have done in the past in that others kill it and you kill it with your own hands. ”

"If you are truly merciful, you should die, not to deceive yourself and enjoy the fruits of other people's labor. ”

"It's like in the prince's mansion, you and your mother have no power, you can only be killed by others, and the other can be thrown to the desolate fourth mountain of Nanxuanzong to wait for death. ”

"If it weren't for my presence, your corpse would have stinked today. ”

Lu Qiu's words were very sharp, turning into one steel needle after another, piercing into Chao Ziai's heart.

Chao Ziai lowered his head, then walked over again, grabbed the prey, let the blood soak his warm palms, and walked step by step in the direction of the spring.

She silently took the dagger, disemboweled, and washed it in the cold spring water of the night.

After cleaning up, he took it to the campfire and skewered the dismembered meat with treated twigs and roasted it on the fire, following the Master's example.

Tonight's Chao Ziai, those once innocent eyes, are quietly changing.

Lu Qiu walked to the side, thinking about his next plan.

In the transformation of life, others and things can only be used as stimuli.

Whether or not he can successfully complete the transformation depends on whether Chao Zi loves himself and can get through the psychological hurdle.

Nothing was said all night.

The next day, Chao Ziai woke up from her sleep and went to the spring to wash up briefly: "Master, I am ready for the next cultivation, thank you." ”

"Don't thank me. Lu Qiu shook his head.

It's just that everyone takes what they need, but he didn't say this to Chao Ziai.

"What's the next step in cultivation?" Chao Zi loves to be smart.

She figured it out last night, in fact, she was the same as her mother, with a self-righteous heart.

As Mother taught, if "goodness" has a reason, it is no longer good. If "goodness" has its consequences, it cannot be called "goodness", and "goodness" is something beyond causality.

Chao Ziai suddenly felt that her mother had done good deeds all her life, but in the end she was harmed by kindness.

When the woman first arrived at the prince's mansion, her mother was worried that she would not be used to eating and living, so she was very considerate.

Unexpectedly, after the woman gained a foothold in the prince's mansion, she began to recuperate and be humble to her mother.

By the time the mother reacted, the woman had spent several years in the prince's mansion and cultivated many cronies.

Even his father, the prince of the kingdom of heaven, believed in that woman.

Good, what's the use?

For the first time, Chao Ziai suddenly questioned what her mother had said before.

Lu Qiu knew that Chao Ziai's life and thoughts were being subverted.

However, these things, Chao Ziai thinks clearly, and it will be better than Lu Qiu to explain them clearly.

Leaving the fourth mountain, Lu Qiu took Chao Ziai to Longquan City again, so that she could relax in Longquan City.

Most of the day passed quickly, and Chao Zi loved very happily.

The struggles of last night and this morning's thoughts slowly receded.

After night fell completely, Lu Qiu left with Chao Ziai.

An hour later, Lu Qiu stood in front of a village with Chao Ziai.

In front of the only pothole road in the village, there is a stone tablet with the words Longquan Village written on it.

"Master, is there any connection between Longquan Village and my next cultivation?" Chao Ziai's mouth still had the joy of the day, and she looked curiously at the stone tablet that had already been eroded by the wind and rain into countless fragments and cracks.

Lu Qiu didn't explain, and walked in with Chao Ziai.

Longquan Village is a large village in the vicinity, with a population of more than 2,000 people.

Many years ago, most of the people in Longquan City were from Longquan Village, and under the arrangement of the royal family of the Qing Heavenly Kingdom, Longquan City appeared.

Therefore, the people of Longquan Village are very proud, and the royal family did not deprive Longquan Village of its name, which is still retained to this day.

Walking on the road of Longquan Village, the surroundings are exceptionally quiet.

The doors and windows of every house were closed, and it was pitch black inside, as if no one lived at all.

"Master, why does Longquan Village look so strange, isn't there anyone living here? No, there are a lot of commonly used things in every house, and there is no dust on them. The door locks of each house are closed, and they must have left temporarily. But what is there that can make every household in Longquan Village go out collectively at the same time?" Chao Ziai's eyesight is surprisingly good at night, so he can see many detailed things in Longquan Village very clearly.

"Tonight is the festival of Longquan Village. Lu Qiu was still slowly walking towards the front.

Chao Ziai followed behind, thinking it was strange.

Master seems to know the situation in Longquan Village very well, and knows every big road and every small road in the village well.

"Festival?" Chao Zi had doubts in her love, but she didn't speak again.

Because as I walked, there was paper money all over the ground, more and more, which was creepy.

In the distance, a bright light gradually shrouded the black horizon.

Every house on this road has a white lantern hanging at the door, and each white lantern has a strange symbol painted on it.

Chao Ziai felt creepy, and her body began to itch.

This itchy feeling is because Chao Ziai feels that there is a special energy breath in his body and begins to become active.

She herself was terrified of this kind of environment and atmosphere.

But the strange energy aura in his body likes this weird and terrifying Longquan Village very much.

As he walked, the voice of someone talking came from the front.

Chao Ziai finally saw clearly that the people of Longquan Village were gathered by the Longquan River.

Four large pillars were erected there, and the pillars were made of wood.

On each wooden pillar, a figure was tied.

The four figures on these four wooden pillars are all girls, and they are all girls who have not reached adulthood.

Each girl's mouth was gagged with something and could only make a whining and panicked sound.

Their tears had long since dried up, and their voices were hoarse with tears, and their whimpering sounds were particularly strange in the eerie environment.

A man was holding a torch and was talking something on it.

"The water god is furious, it's our Longquan Village that has done something wrong!"

"Longquan Village lives on the Longquan River, and if it weren't for the Longquan River, we would have perished a long time ago. ”

"Because there are no four girls sacrificed to Longquanjiang this year, it is because there are no girls available in Longquan Village. ”

"So we ran far away and caught four girls, whose parents actually resisted and have been killed by us!"
