The Right Protector of the Demon Sect is reborn
Chapter 70: Honor the chosen divine envoy, the weather will be smooth, jump!
The fog on the island was getting redder and redder. No one dared to stay outside at night. Huo Chuqi escaped alone. Tomorrow was the sacrifice. She was really scared, even though everyone said she was going She would live a good life as an envoy for the gods, but no one could tell her what the gods in the sea looked like.
Over the past hundred years, not one of the more than ten children sent to the island has returned to the village to see. Are everyone really still alive?
The fog was very heavy, and there was almost no light on the road. There was a full moon hanging in the sky. Under the red mist, it seemed to be coated with a layer of blood. The wind on the island was very strong, and the cold wind penetrated the bones. Huo Chuqi turned against Feng ran, feeling like she was about to freeze to death, but she didn't dare to stop for fear of being caught again.
Historically, the envoys of the gods were seated in high sedan chairs, wearing white robes and colorful makeup. They were carried by eight strong men on the sea cliff, and then jumped into the sea from that terrifyingly high place.
This is what the mother-in-law told her during the day. After she finished telling her, she seemed to notice her fear and emphasized several times that she had lived a good life.
However, since she has lived a good life, why do they look at her with such pitiful and pitiful eyes? They thought that she was still a child and they would not hide it in front of her, but in fact, she understood everything.
"Huhu...huhu...huhu..."
The cold wind entered her lungs, her chest ached, and the smell of blood came from her throat. Huo Chuqi ran slower and slower, and finally tripped over a stone. She climbed up with difficulty, only to find that her knees were bleeding. Burning pain.
But at this moment, she vaguely heard the voices of many people coming from behind. She turned her head and saw the fire.
Oops, they've discovered she's missing!
Huo Chuqi was so frightened that his heart almost jumped out, so he didn't care about anything else. He covered his legs and continued running. He was forced all the way to the beach. Seeing that there was no place to hide, he was so anxious that he was about to cry, but he was suddenly photographed from behind. With a tap on the shoulder, her body instantly stiffened and her breathing almost stopped.
"Don't be afraid, it's Uncle Wang."
Behind her was the voice of an adult man. She knew that voice. It was the missing uncle of the Wang family.
"follow me."
Before Huo Chuqi was surprised, she was pulled away. After realizing it, she followed into the cave and breathed a sigh of relief. She was safe.
Huo Chuqi didn't know how the night passed. She had no sleep all night. When dawn came, she was still a little dazed, so the Wang family member said "Just stay well" and went out by herself. Huo Chuqi also obeyed and didn't. He left and stayed until noon, when there was a sound of gongs and drums outside, and the old woman's funeral song started. The sound was high-pitched and unpleasant, making people's ears hurt.
Huo Chuqi's hazy consciousness immediately came to his senses.
Did you send the messenger as a gift? who is it? Who is the messenger? !
Strong curiosity drove Huo Chuqi to drag his tired and embarrassed body out of the cave. Looking up from the beach, he saw eight big men on the high slope carrying the messenger's sedan, bumping up and down towards the sea cliff. go.
Huo Chuqi opened her eyes hard and looked. The white gauze cover was lifted by the wind, and she saw the little man sitting on it. The angel in white shrank into a small ball.
It was Huo Shiliu!
Her heart suddenly tightened, and she felt weak from the soles of her feet. She could not stand firmly and knelt firmly on the ground.
Huo Chuqi didn't know how he followed him up the cliff. He just hid in the grass ten meters away, and then he couldn't move any further.
Her fingers tightened little by little, and her nails dug into her flesh. She smelled the fishy smell in the air and wanted to move forward, but her feet felt like lead, unable to move even half a step.
She can't do anything, she doesn't dare to do anything!
Guilt filled her whole heart, so sad and sad that she almost couldn't breathe.
But she could only listen to her mother-in-law singing the sacrificial words line by line, and then everyone invited the boy out of the sedan chair, and they stood on the cliff hugging each other.
The sea breeze was blowing almost randomly, and Huo Chuqi could almost hear his own heartbeat.
"Plop, plop."
One sound, two sounds, three sounds and four sounds...
"The sky is above, the gods bless you, choose the envoys of the gods, the weather will be smooth, jump!"
No! don't want! ! ! !
The mother-in-law's shrill voice cut through the sea fog and followed the wind into Huo Chuqi's ears. Along with the sound of her heart beating, Huo Chuqi heard a "plop".
······
Lou Xinzhou simply told Shao Yunfan and Mei Yumu the memories of what he saw. However, during the narration process, Huo Chuqi's emotions always affected her. Fortunately, Shao Yunfan was here, so she would not collapse. My mood has been very low.
Hearing this, Shao Yunfan still didn't understand that she and Huo Chuqi had empathy, but the rules and restrictions of the secret realm left him with no choice but to watch the people in front of him shed tears one by one, and somehow felt sad in his heart. Somewhat irritable.
To be honest, the memory did not give any useful information, but just like the current situation, after Huo Chuqi escaped, Huo Shiliu was pushed into the position of the divine envoy.
"Do you guys still remember?"
Mei Yumu suddenly spoke, and the two of them followed the sound and looked over.
"Except for the Huo family, there are no children of appropriate age in the village. Can we rescue Huo Shiliu? Then the sacrifice will be impossible. We can also complete this task."
"No." Shao Yunfan rejected it without thinking, "In addition to stopping the sacrifice, we have other tasks, remember? Lifting the island's curse and eliminating demons, these seem to be separate, but in fact , they need to be solved together. If the sacrifice is stopped, the monsters in the sea will probably not show up, and the curse will not be eliminated."
"So, we can only wait until the day of the sacrifice, when the monster in the sea comes to collect people..."
Mei Yumu also quickly understood. Shao Yunfan nodded when he heard her words. The three of them discussed it. Just when Guo Jia and Xiao Zhu came back, they worked together to formulate a plan for the day of the sacrifice.
Soon it was night again, and Lou Xinzhou could not calm down, so he quietly left alone.
In order to thank them for finding the missing blacksmith, the villagers specially prepared a yard for them to come out to. The yard was not far from the sea cliff. By some strange combination of circumstances, Lou Xinzhou followed his instinct and went there.
Along the gravel road, there are many shrubs on the edge, their branches and leaves are withered and yellow, like man-eating monsters.
Lou Xinzhou has never been here before, and Huo Chuqi has never been here before. But the higher you go, the more familiar it becomes, like a deep obsession that has been remembered for hundreds of years.
In the dark night, the moonlight was pale, and Lou Xinzhou followed the road without stopping for a moment, until the cliff was in front of him, and the strong wind kept blowing on his face.
Jump off!
Suddenly a voice roared in my heart, screaming hoarsely with deep sadness.
Lou Xinzhou moved his steps.
"Xin Zhou!"
Just when Lou Xinzhou was about to take a step forward, someone suddenly grabbed her from behind.
Lou Xinzhou turned around blankly, and saw Shao Yunfan standing behind him with a frown, a rare anger on his face, and she finally came to her senses.
"Are you OK!"
Lou Xinzhou shook his head gently.
"Xinzhou," Shao Yunfan pulled the person closer and whispered, "Don't be empathized with by her anymore."
