Husbands Are Not Human [Quick Transmigration]

Chapter 9 Sacrifice [Fixed] I am very incompetent, I can only fish out one of you.

Ji Jiezhi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Well, it's really beautiful."

Tu Kezhou lowered his eyes. The man has black hair, which is a bit naturally curly, but the curl is not large, only at the end.His eyebrows are very light, his eyelashes are thick but not curled up, his eyes seem to contain thousands of broken stars, and he looks extremely alienated.For example, priceless ancient landscape paintings are only suitable for hanging there far away.

But Tu Kezhou didn't agree, he just wanted to break in and break the sense of distance.

"Can I put it on for you?"

Ji Jiezhi asked doubtfully, "You mean flowers?"

Tu Kezhou nodded vigorously, "Insert. Here", he pointed to Ji Jiezhi's left ear.

Ji Jiezhi frowned very quickly, as if thinking for a second, he agreed.

Tu Kezhou was delighted: "You are so kind!"

He squatted down, looking slightly lower than Ji Jiezhi, gently pressed the tips of Ji Jiezhi's ears, and inserted the thin pink flowers.Going in, he tidied his hair carefully, and took a step back to look at his "work", very satisfied.

"Sure enough, it matches you well!"

The man's complexion is fair, his hair and eyes are as black as a crow's feathers, like ink like jade, clear and cold, and his indifference is better than snow.But this flower broke this calm harmony, breaking in abruptly, adding color to him.

Tu Kezhou felt that this was very similar to himself.

Ji Jiezhi doesn't understand why Tu Kezhou is being silly, what's so good about a man wearing flowers?But also lazy to talk to him.

He stood up and adjusted his trouser legs, and said, "Let's go, go back, it's getting dark."

Tu Kezhou responded first, then stopped abruptly after getting up, and let out a strange cry, which startled Ji Jiezhi.

"The atmosphere was so good just now, I should have kissed you!" Tu Kezhou scratched his hair angrily, and wailed to the sky.

Ji Jiezhi: "... Maybe it's not too late now."

Tu Kezhou's eyes widened instantly, and he asked incredulously, "Really?!"

Ji Jiezhi looked at him with a frown, "I'll give you five seconds, don't wait when it's over."

Tu Kezhou jumped up excitedly and gave him a wolf hug, and a resounding "Bo~" resounded from his pale pink lips and Ji Jiezhi's... forehead.

Ji Jiezhi resisted the desire to reach out to wipe off the wetness on his forehead, and thought silently: Sure enough, he is still a child, so he only dared to kiss his forehead...

Tu Kezhou was so happy, he pestered Ji Jiezhi all the way, chattering non-stop, sometimes the prey was too cunning to play him around, and sometimes someone in the army was so stupid that he couldn't even catch the injured rabbit live.

Ji Jiezhi wanted to keep his mouth shut, but 099 told him no, the plot would not go on if he did so, so he endured it.

***

In the early morning, the sun just came out, and the breath was full of ice, and the soldiers shouted from the central square, which was the sound of food.Every household rushed out of the ice cave one after another, and they should have lined up in order, but today the soldiers said they don't need to line up, and they all got closer to form a circle.

The wolves were puzzled, but they still did it.

The leading soldier is Katse, who was born dark, and has been tanned even more since he went out hunting with the old wolf king since he was a child. He is two extremes with white hair, and he is threatening when he looks at the machine.

Kaze looked around and reported that the count of wolves had been completed, and all 1 wolves in District 829 had arrived.

Kaze yelled at the wolves, "Quiet!"

The whispering stopped instantly, and all the wolves looked at Katse, quietly waiting for his next words.

"According to the discussion of the elders in the clan, in order to effectively prevent the severe snowstorm in seven days, Nanshan decided to hold another sacrificial activity three days later!"

The wolves fell silent at first, then exploded suddenly.The faces of all wolves changed dramatically, especially in families with children. One mother almost fainted.

Kaze licked his dry lips, his eyes flickered for a moment, as if he couldn't bear it, but he could only continue: "The age limit for this sacrifice is relaxed to five to 15 years old, and the rewards are as usual, one deer per person."

"Because of time constraints, everyone please actively cooperate. Now, the meeting is adjourned!"

Kaze withdrew after speaking, firstly because there were still several districts to promote, and secondly because he didn't want to watch the aftermath.

The soldiers who served the food followed closely, but none of the wolves came forward to take the food.

Crying, cursing, and howling sounded one after another. The younger children didn't understand what sacrifice was. They only heard that they would reward a whole deer and ask their parents if they could participate in the sacrifice so that they would be full.

The child's mother cried harder while holding the child. Although the father said "what are you afraid of, there are so many children, and the age is so wide, it may not be our child.", but his face is also worried. Unbearable.

The child's mother cried and yelled at him: "What if I get drawn! I'm just such a child! What do you want me to do!"

A restless morning slowly passed amidst the noise.Time is like this, it is one-dimensional, no matter what happens, it always moves forward, and what should happen will always happen.

Ji Jiezhi was also there at the meeting last night, and he didn't say a word the whole time. He was shocked for a long time when he heard the sacrifice, and almost slapped the table to revolt, but fortunately, he held back and stood up holding back his anger.

"Sacrifice is an activity held at the beginning of each year. This year's sacrifice has passed. Now that the survival rate of children in Nanshan is terribly low, why should we intensify the sacrifice activities?"

The astrologer's scepter struck the ice hard, and snorted coldly: "It's natural for the princess to be young and narrow-minded, so she can't see the future benefits clearly, but she must think carefully before speaking. The priest can stop the snowstorm and reduce Nanshan by 200 casualties." , how can I not do this thing that benefits the big self by sacrificing the small self?"

Ji Jiezhi sneered and said, "Why didn't the elder choose his own grandson for such a righteous thing?"

The astrologer choked, pointing at Ji Jiezhi with his scepter angrily, "You, you are really...!"

Before he could say the next words, Tu Kezhou held Ji Jiezhi's hand on the table, and silently told everyone—the wolf king and the princess.

The old man couldn't hold back his face anymore, "How rude to be noisy in the conference room! The princess is still young and ignorant, are you the same, the astrological elder?"

What he said, if Ji Jiezhi was stupid, he really thought that the old man was speaking for himself.

The astrologer sat back in his seat, "I was impulsive."

Ji Jiezhi glanced at Tu Kezhou, and Tu Kezhou gave him a helpless smile. He understood that there was no other way to do the sacrifice, so he also sat down.

After the meeting, Tu Kezhou was very concerned about his emotions, and he didn't dare to act like a baby with him. He silently accompanied him in meditation, and only hugged him and said after a long, long time.

"I know you hate sacrifices, but this is a surefire solution, we have to do it."

Ji Jiezhi asked, "Can I not go on the day of the sacrifice?"

Tu Kezhou patted him on the back and said, "Okay, just stay in the ice cave as a dream."

"Thank you."

The personnel for the sacrifice were selected surprisingly quickly, and the right candidate was selected on the day of the announcement. According to Tu Kezhou, the child was sent by the mother herself.

Ji Jiezhi was shocked, went to see the child, and was even more shocked when he saw who it was.

The child was happily gnawing on a deer leg. Hearing the movement, his fluffy ears trembled. He raised his head, smiled at Ji Jiezhi, and said, "Big brother who gave me food last time!"

——It was the child he noticed in the civilian area a few days ago.

"You said his mother sent him here voluntarily?" Ji Jiezhi asked in disbelief.

Tu Kezhou sighed, "She had no other choice. Her husband broke his leg when he went hunting secretly, and he would die without food. When the children grow up again, the food we distribute to them is far from enough."

Ji Jiezhi thought to himself, even if it wasn't this child, it would be another child, there is no difference in essence.

"Let's go back."

***

The sacrificial ceremony is held as scheduled, and the method is to send the children to the sacrificial altar before sunset during the day.

It is true that Ji Jiezhi did not appear, but even though he was buried under the quilt, he still seemed to be able to faintly hear the spells chanted by the astrologer, which were fast and dense, making people feel chest tight and dizzy.

Tu Kezhou didn't come back until it was completely dark, Ji Jiezhi paced back and forth for 3 minutes, and finally walked out of the cave.

The past few days were in the middle of the month, the moonlight was bright and clear, and the outside of the cave was as bright as day. He came to the sacrificial altar with ease.

The two-meter-high wooden frame is still too high and too big for an eight-year-old child, and the iron chain is too long to wrap around.The sacrificial offerings can only wear a thin inner garment, which is no different from being skinned and thrown into the freezer in the freezing night.

The child's face is pale, and there are snowflakes on his eyelashes. Behind him are the pure white snow mountains and the round moon like a jade plate. If this is a painting, it will be a painting with extremely wonderful composition and color.

Unfortunately, no.

The child tilted his head, and Ji Jie sniffed forward. He was still alive, but his breathing was already very weak, and the amount of air he inhaled hadn't been exhaled much.

He won't survive tonight.Ji Jiezhi knew.

Ji Jiezhi also has a similar experience in his own memory. When he was 12 years old, he was bullied by children in the orphanage. He even scratched a boy's face. night.

He still remembered that it was Christmas Eve, and Xiachuan City had the first snow of that year, and it was very beautiful.But he had no intention of admiring it.

He huddled tightly in the corner of the yard, trying not to let himself be blown by more wind, but he was still shivering from the cold, and his hunger had long been overwhelmed by exhaustion and cold.

He breathed out on the palm of his hand but couldn't feel the warmth. His hand was already numb from the cold and swollen like ten carrots.

He thought he might die here tonight.Will the dean be startled?Will you regret your punishment for him?

It's just that it's cheaper for Xiaopang, but he still has a lot of revenge that he hasn't avenged.Then if you become the first ghost, go and scare him.

Gradually he began to feel sleepy, and his eyelids seemed to be heavy. He knew he couldn't sleep, but he couldn't resist the sleepiness and closed his eyes.

Suddenly he felt very warm, as if someone hugged him into his arms, warmed him tightly, and patted his back gently.He wanted to open his eyes but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't. He could smell the grapefruit smell on the man's body. He had only eaten grapefruit once, and he thought it was so sour and sweet.

Ji Jiezhi didn't know whether the second half of the experience was real or he was dreaming. When he woke up the next day, he was still in the yard, nothing happened, even the cold that lasted for a week was gone. .

The child on the cross frowned and moved his fingers. He seemed to be suffering, and he began to pant heavily, his face flushed.Red, the eyelashes fluttered a few times and slowly opened his eyes.He looked around in confusion.

His voice was almost inaudible, "Da, brother, I... so cold."

He only said one sentence but exhausted all his strength, closed his eyes again, and began to breathe slowly.

Ji Jiezhi was stunned for half a minute, clenched his fingers into a fist, took a deep breath, and quickly rushed forward to grab the chain and start looking for the lock.

No, he can't accept such a plot, he wants to save him!

The iron chain was frozen like ice, and Ji Jiezhi's hands were soon numb from the ice.He found the lock. At the bottom of the wooden frame, he first hung both ends of the chain to the ice surface, and then watered it. After freezing, it was firmly stuck to the ice surface.

Ji Jiezhi heaved a sigh of relief. He couldn't break the iron chain no matter what, but if it was ice, he could still try it.

He turned around and looked around to see if there was something harder that could smash the ice, but he saw a man standing not far away.The man is all white, except for a small braid on the left forehead that is braided with a red string, which is particularly eye-catching in the white snow.

Tu Kezhou walked towards him, held his cold hand to warm him, let out a long breath and said, "The few nights after you were selected were as cold as today."

Ji Jiezhi thought he was going to stop him, so he slowly stood up and looked sideways: "Do you think the sacrifice is useful?"

Tu Kezhou stretched out another hand to hold both of his hands, held them to his chest, let out a breath, and rubbed them again.

The terrain he was standing on was lower than Ji Jiezhi's, so he had to look up when looking at Ji Jiezhi.

The moonlight dances in his eyes, he is sincere and sad.

"How do I think that unimportant and wrong perceptions will become the truth in everyone's hearts as long as the base of belief is large. I am very incompetent, and I can only fish out one of you."
