Chapter 76

The villagers are digging canals to drain crops in the fields, picking up houses blown down by the wind, and helping injured people.

"Is Lord Water God angry again?"

"Obviously the sacrifice was made a few days ago..."

"I heard that the children of the village chief's family were selected for this sacrifice..."

Listening to the whispers of the villagers, He Yuan knew where he was.

"It seems that there is no need to ask for directions."

This must be the village where the water god who was robbed of the artifact and turned into a miniature man is located!
Walking forward to the dilapidated house, He Yuan asked an old man who was repairing the house: "Hello, elder, I am a traveling mage. I just heard everyone talking about sacrifices. This what's going on?"

"Oh, it's Master Mage."

After hearing He Yuan's question, the old man quickly waved his hand to He Yuan: "Mr. Master, you are too polite, elder or something, haha..."

In this world full of wars and monsters, the most admirable thing is the wandering mage, monk, and witch who put life and death aside. Therefore, these three types of people are the most popular.

"My lord, the sacrificial matter only started half a year ago."

"In the past, we worshiped the Water God, and the Water God protected us."

"However, half a year ago, for some unknown reason, Lord Water God suddenly rolled up a violent storm, which flooded our house and destroyed our crops."

"Afterwards, Lord Water God announced that every once in a while, we must go and offer sacrifices to him, otherwise, Lord Water God will completely destroy our existence..."

"Then, the so-called sacrifice..."

"The sacrifices are personally selected by Lord Water God."

The old man wiped the corners of his eyes: "When the Lord Water God needs a sacrifice, he will shoot an arrow from the water. Whichever family the arrow hits, the child of that family will be the sacrifice this time."

"Old man, have you never suspected that this water god is not the original water god, but a monster in disguise?"

"How could you not have thought about it?"

"However, the village head personally came to tell everyone that in order to protect the village, some sacrifices are unavoidable. If the child of his family is selected, he will also send the child..."

"Then haven't you thought about going to find a magician or a witch to slay the demon?"

"The village chief said that Lord Water God is too powerful. If the mages cannot surrender, the angry water god will probably completely destroy our village chief."

"That's it."

Nodding his head, He Yuan expressed his understanding.

In fact, if the village chief hadn't replaced his children with Chang Gong's children when the water god chose his own children, no one would be able to say that the village chief did something wrong.

This is the tragedy of this era, the struggle of the powerless, and the humblest wish of man.

That is, live!
The behavior of the village chief is the wisdom that enables the villagers to survive and live.

"Then old man, can you tell me the time when the sacrifice will be offered next time?"

"Ah~"

The old man sighed: "Every time the Lord Water God chooses a sacrifice, he will send the child to the Lord Water God's boat within three days."

"The child selected this time belongs to the village chief's family. The child selected yesterday will be the last day tomorrow..."

"Tomorrow?"

After saying goodbye to the old man and walking to the entrance of the village, He Yuan put away the lightning strike blade, jumped onto a tree, and sat cross-legged on the branch.

Knowing the time of the sacrifice, you also know the time when Kagome and others came to this village.

In this case, let this water snake live one more day!

……

The next day, He Yuan woke up from meditation and heard the sound of gongs and drums.

"Oh? Did it start so early?"

Jumping off the tree, He Yuan walked towards the place where the sound came from.

After a while, I saw a sedan chair carried by eight people, followed by several people.

From the curtains floating around the sedan, you can see that sitting inside is a child wearing a mask.

When He Yuan got closer, he saw Inuyasha and his party standing in front of the sedan chair, and Inuyasha even jumped onto the sedan chair.

With He Yuan's hearing, it was not difficult to hear their conversation.

"Master Village Chief, this is really tragic."

"What are you talking about? In order to protect the village, isn't it natural to sacrifice my children?"

"What for granted?"

The sudden sound startled the village chief and others. When they looked up, they found Inuyasha standing on the sedan with his hands in his sleeves.

"Those who claim to be water gods are actually just strange monsters."

"what?"

InuYasha's words startled the villagers, who quickly raised their heads and looked around, as if they were afraid of being discovered by the water god.

Inuyasha didn't seem to notice anything strange about the villagers, and continued: "That guy must be a monster who uses the Shikon Jade fragments to enhance his demonic power, right? Don't be fooled, hey!"

"You, who are you guys?"

"The guy I've never seen before..."

"This guy has ears on his head, is it a monster?"

When the villagers were bustling with each other, the village head was calmer and shouted to Inuyasha: "This village is protected by Lord Water God, monsters, get out of here!"

"What are you talking about? Old man!"

A "well" character appeared on Inuyasha's forehead. He finally showed kindness, but was kicked out?
When had his second dog been so angry?
"Stop it, Inuyasha."

At this time, the Zen staff in Miroku's hand hit InuYasha on the head, blocking InuYasha behind him.

"Everyone, we don't mean any harm. We are travelers who help people slay demons. I am a mage. One of the two ladies over there is a witch and the other is a demon slayer. Plus this guy..."

"We've heard about your affairs, if you don't mind, let us get rid of the demon!"

"Absolutely not!"

Contrary to the expectations of Inuyasha and others, the village chief who should have been in favor of eliminating the demon strongly opposed it.

"village head……"

The villagers wanted to persuade them, but the village chief refused.

"Don't be fooled by him, everyone, they must be deceiving us."

"Come on, these unknown guys, if you offend the water god, maybe the water god will destroy our entire village chief!"

"Even if this is not the case, I will ask the mage to eliminate the demons when it is my children's turn. I would have no shame to see the children who were sacrificed as sacrifices..."

After speaking, the village head wiped his eyes with his cuff.

"Okay, before the sun goes down, we must send the children to the ancestral hall by the lake, everyone, let's get on the road!"

When the villagers were far away, Qibao suddenly said, "Isn't that old village head really weird?"

"Well, it seems that I am very much looking forward to having my child as a sacrifice!"
