Chapter 010: The so-called river god

When Mu Changning was tied up and carried to the sacrificial ground, the anger in his stomach had already turned into indifference.

The place of worship in Shuiyue Village is actually a stone cave, the moisture in the cave is very heavy, and you can hear the sound of gurgling water, presumably below the stone cave is an underground river. The dim torches flickered, and the scene inside the cave could be seen dimly.

Although it is a sacrifice, there is no current three animal fruits, and the ceremony is not required at all, because this river god sacrifice only needs one sacrifice.

By this time, Mu Changning had already guessed.

The old village chief wrinkled his face and sighed softly, and at this time, his expression was quite unbearable and guilty.

Mu Changning had seen too much of this look, so much that she felt numb.

"Mu girl, don't blame us ......"

I don't know how many times the village chief said this sentence today.

Mu Changning could only sneer back, and looked at Sister-in-law Zhang behind the village chief fixedly: "From the moment I appeared in Shuiyue Village, you guys had this idea, right?

Sister-in-law Zhang was speechless, and her figure was inconspicuous in the crowd.

The old village chief's withered face couldn't hold back slightly, and he looked away.

Mu Changning was even more furious: "What is the consequence of making a sacrifice, I have no grievances with you, and you push me into a desperate situation like this, and my conscience can be happy?"

The crowd was silent again.

After a long while, Sister-in-law Zhang, who had been silent, opened her mouth: "You fainted to the ground, if we hadn't taken you in and given you food, you might have died a long time ago, your life was saved by us, if you know gratitude, you should reciprocate." Now, it's just ...... It's just that I want you to come back. ”

Mu Changning was about to laugh angrily, "So, I still have to thank you?"

She held up her tied hands and laughed sarcastically.

Probably because Mu Changning's gaze was too disappointed at this time, and Sister-in-law Zhang finally felt that she was at a loss, so she opened her mouth and did not continue to speak.

The silence was terrible, and the sound of the sand was close to my ears.

"You all believe that good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and if you send me to a dead end today, you are not afraid that in the future, I will turn into a ghost and come to you to ask for your life, so that you will not be able to live in peace day and night!"

Mu Changning was alarmist.

This group of people is very superstitious, and she can only do the last dying struggle: "Let me go, I should make a good fate, if I have the opportunity to repay in the future, I Mu Changning will definitely be duty-bound!"

This group of seemingly simple villagers are not joking with her, they really want to use her to worship the river demon!

Bet that this group of people has not yet extinguished their conscience, and they are willing to let her go with great mercy!

Sure enough, everyone's expressions were a little shaken for a while, and they looked at each other.

The old village chief was silent for a moment, and finally looked directly at her: "The existence of Shuiyue Village, relying on the Shuiyue River, the joy and anger of the river god, determines the growth of our farming in the coming year, since we have inherited the favor of the river god and received the nourishment of the Shuiyue River, we deserve to have a gift." ”

His voice was unhurried, as if he was saying something inconsequential: "The river god sacrifice cannot be done without sacrifices, if it weren't for you, someone else from the village would have to come out......"

The old village chief spoke slowly, his gaze slowly changed from erratic to resolute: "We have no choice...... If you have compassion for us, help us!"

Mu Changning's heart fell to the bottom in an instant.

So, don't you die and don't die?

Since it is destined to have a sacrifice of sacrifice, it is better to sacrifice an outsider of unknown origin than to sacrifice a villager who has been with everyone for a long time and has an emotional foundation for everyone, so that every family is distressed and bored.

It not only does not waste a soldier in the village, but also solves the river god sacrifice, killing two birds with one stone.

This abacus is indeed exquisitely played.

But...... Who would want to die!

"I sympathize with you......?"

Mu Changning sneered, and then scolded: "You are miserable, am I not miserable? Have you ever thought about my feelings? You are desperate and painful, you are justified? Do you have the right to deal with me like this? Do I have to have this obligation to help you?"

"The weak theorem is not valid, this is simply kidnapping, and it is a careless disregard for human life!"

It's shameless!

The old village chief couldn't listen to her words, shook his head and sighed: "Mu girl, this matter is all my idea, there is a debtor and a debtor, if you want to ask for your life in the future, come to me." ”

The sand in the hourglass leaked out, and the old village chief waved his hand, and a strong man threw her into the swarthy hole under the altar.

It is said that below is the cave of the river god.

"I ......" rub!

Before Mu Changning finished speaking, a sense of weightlessness came over him.

She was tied hand and foot, unable to move, at this time, she really had to wait for death.

Too many things flashed through my head at once.

In the past life, in this life, the chaos is incomparable, and in the end it turns into a light and soft tune, which is a song that Pu often whispers in her ear to lull her to sleep.

Her mother sent her out of Ling's house, but she got herself into this situation.

It's not that she didn't notice the weirdness, but under this kind of superficial kindness and peace, she deceived herself into thinking that there was true love in the world, and thought that the simple villagers would be kind-hearted, and she subconsciously ignored the vigilance she should have.

In my previous life, I lived in a simple environment, and when I came to this world, I didn't have much opportunity to broaden my horizons.

In the end, she is a frog at the bottom of a well, only living in her own small world, and it is unreasonable to survive in this world with this attitude, and it is unreasonable not to be cannon fodder, right?

Mu Changning felt powerless.

She regrets it now, but is it useful? Eat a trench to grow wise, but she didn't even have this opportunity...... Some things often can't be repeated.

Mu Changning was aggrieved and sad in her heart, she didn't want to die, she didn't want to die at all!

Countless thoughts rose and sank, and the cold lake water instantly made Mu Changning's head empty.

The bottom of the stone cave is indeed an underground river, and when it falls from the mouth of the cave, it is a deep pool, and Mu Changning's whole body is soaked in water.

It is said that her water nature is actually good, but no matter how good her water nature is, if her hands and feet are tied, she can't show it!

The straw rope that bound her hands and feet had been replaced with a cowhide rope, which was so tough that she couldn't break free even if she used all her strength, but she fell between the frictions, the skin of her wrists was shattered, and a trace of blood oozed from the wound.

The feeling of suffocation became heavier and heavier, and Mu Changning fell straight down, and at the same time, a strong force rose from her feet for no reason and sucked her down.

There was a faint cold light emitting from the bottom of the lake, and Mu Changning seemed to see a bloody mouth in a daze, fist-sized fangs were sharp, and a thick bloody qi invaded an entire body of water.

Big Fish Monster!

Mu Changning actually had a guess in his heart.

The river god sacrifice in Shuiyue Village needs to be sacrificed by the living, but how can the gods eat people, this river god who is worshiped as a god by the villagers is clearly a monster!

Maybe the villagers also understand in their hearts, but in front of the monsters, the power of mortals seems so small and vulnerable, what should they do except be obedient to everything?

Mu Changning once again sighed at the importance of strength, the giant fish had already opened its mouth violently, and swallowed her whole with a whimper.
