Chapter 138 Mysterious and Strange Tales · Sacrifice River

"Stop joking, let's talk business."

Seeing that Shao Feng was about to explode, Su Ji came out to smooth things over and said, "Let's sort out the clues first—"

"Mr. Liu came here more than 30 years ago. Before that, Linghe Village did not have the habit of offering sacrifices to the river god. After the disaster in the village, Mrs. Liu began to preach to the villagers to worship the 'river god'. The villagers didn't believe it at first, but A series of coincidences made people have to believe it."

Speaking of this, Su Ji paused, "Then, here comes the question. Are these things really just a coincidence?"

Hearing this, the group suddenly fell silent.Cheng Xuyuan seemed to understand something, and replied: "You want to say that Mrs. Liu deliberately messed up these things, and the purpose is to make the villagers believe in the river god?"

Su Ji: "Grandma Liu alone shouldn't be that capable. There must be something else behind her. Don't forget, she is the 'God Envoy' of the River God."

Cheng Xuyuan: "That's right, if Mrs. Liu is really that powerful, she doesn't need to use such a devious way to convince the villagers at first, she just needs to show her supernatural powers."

Following this line of thought, Liu Wenhan thought for a while and said, "So the whole thing was actually caused by the River God?"

Wu Guang: "Do you even need to ask? It's obvious! The God of the River used Mrs. Liu to spread rumors in the village in advance. The villagers didn't believe in evil at first. But the God of the River took advantage of this and played tricks in the village. The villagers were treated like this. After a toss, you have to believe it if you don’t believe it.”

As he said that, Wu Guang sighed angrily: "With this kind of means to attract believers and worshipers, this river god is probably a monster that harms people. I don't know how the folk priests and masters did it. Don't clean it up."

"..." Wuchang: "Brother, you are too into the drama. This is just a special copy."

"The reason why the master didn't clean it up is because this game has to wait for us players to clean it up." Su Ji paused, then smiled meaningfully: "Otherwise, wouldn't the Lord God's arrangement be in vain? "

Liu Wenhan: "I still don't quite understand one thing. What is the purpose of this river god? According to folklore, those spirits and monsters set up dojos in the world to attract believers to practice. But I see the way of the river god. It's very strange. If it does this, will there really be villagers who believe in it?"

Wu Guang: "That must be impossible. After all, my own life is in the hands of the River God, how could the villagers respect him."

Shao Feng: "Then what is the reason for the river god to do this? Does it just want to be the emperor here and let the villagers help him find a wife?"

"..." Wu Guang: "How is it possible? This is too low, right? It's not the monster mountain kings in Journey to the West who have no ambition to abuse Brother Hou's vegetables. No matter what happens, the River God won't be able to mess up like this. "

Shao Feng was not convinced: "Then why do you tell the river god?"

Seeing that the two seemed to be fighting again, Su Ji said: "The purpose of the God of the River is actually very simple, just think about it and think about it."

"According to my years of experience in watching dramas and online articles, nine out of ten such 'evil gods' and 'false gods' like human sacrifices. In addition to the reason that they have a strong taste and like eating human flesh, there is another possible--

What they need is the soul of man.Whether it's for smoking, or for cultivating some evil exercises to strengthen one's own strength, in short, one cannot escape from these options. "

"In other words, the River God marrying a bride is actually a cover."

"This river god doesn't need the company of a new wife. What it really wants is the bride's soul. The so-called 'sacrifice to the river god' is just a way for it to obtain human souls."

As soon as the voice fell, the prompt sound of the game sounded right next to the ear——

[Didi!Congratulations to player Su Ji for successfully unlocking the plot of "River of Sacrifice". The current plot exploration rate is 50%, please continue to work hard! 】

The players stared at the progress bar of the unlocked plot on the task panel and couldn't help being stunned. Although it was not the first time they saw it, every time they saw Su Ji unlocking the plot, they couldn't help but feel miraculous.

Liu Wenhan couldn't help feeling emotional, "After going around for so long, the answer turned out to be so simple..."

Zhou Jing: "Maybe it's because the plot of the official dungeon is too complicated, causing our way of thinking to think in a more complicated way unconsciously. In fact, the plot of the special dungeon doesn't have so many twists and turns."

Su Ji: "Although the currently unlocked plot is not complicated, everyone should not take it lightly. This "Mysterious Stories" is a series of novels composed of three stories. It is very likely that the plot we are encountering now is just the beginning .”

"Su Ji is right." Cheng Xuyuan said: "Since the genre of the dungeon this time is a mid-length fantasy novel, we can also move closer to this direction when thinking about reasoning. Perhaps this Linghe Village River God and The bosses in the next two stories are not necessarily related."

Hearing this, Zhou Wen couldn't help but diverge his thoughts: "Could it be that the River God of Linghe Village is just a young man? Is it the subordinate of the boss in the next two stories?"

Cheng Xuyuan: "This possibility is not ruled out. In short, let's pay more attention to clues. Maybe it can be used in the next two stories."

Zhou Wen: "Okay."

Zhou Jing: "Yes."

After unlocking the key plot, the players also have a bottom line on the next task.

……

In a blink of an eye, it was time for the River Sacrifice Ceremony.

Before dawn, Su Ji was taken away from the house by two villagers.

It was the day when "the god of the river married a bride". Although the village chief and Wang Zhuang knew that the bride Feng Wan'er was pregnant and not perfect, the other villagers in Linghe village didn't know it.Therefore, this surface work still has to be done.

After Su Ji left the bride's boudoir, the women who were arranged by the village chief to be in charge of dressing up rushed into Feng's house.

Under the siege and interception of a group of old women, Shao Feng was finally painted as a monkey's butt no matter he wanted to or not, and was carried on a sedan chair.And Su Ji, the "adulterate man", was arranged in the procession of seeing off relatives and became a member of the bearers.

Following the order of the village chief, the send-off team headed straight for the altar by the river.

Today's sky is gloomy, although there is no wind or rain, it still reveals an ominous atmosphere.

On the bank of the river, Mrs. Liu was holding a witch bell, wearing weird clothes that looked like rags, with her eyes closed and her mouth opening and closing, as if she was muttering something.

Hearing the sound of joy gradually approaching the river bank in the distance, a young man about thirteen or fourteen years old glanced back at the altar and then reported to Mrs. Liu: "My lord, the bride has arrived!"

Hearing the sound, Mrs. Liu stopped abruptly, her tightly closed mouth drooped down, and two nasolabial folds as deep as a knife were drawn out, which made her look even more sinister.

Mrs. Liu opened her cloudy eyes, and turned her head slightly stiffly, as if her joints were broken, and there was a "click" sound every time she moved.It made her look less and less alive.

For a moment, the little boy shuddered.

Before Mrs. Liu could speak, he quickly turned his head to look at the sending team, pretending to be anxious and said: "Why are these people so slow? I wonder if the auspicious time can't be delayed?"

As he spoke, he quickly said to Mrs. Liu, "Wait for now, I'll go ahead and urge you." After finishing speaking, he left the altar without looking back.

Witnessing the back of the young man fleeing quickly, Mrs. Liu didn't say a word.Like a lifeless marionette, devoid of emotion.

On the other side, the young man who ran a long distance was relieved to see that Mrs. Liu hadn't done anything.

God knows why he was chosen to be the envoy boy in the river god village this time.

It's really bad luck for eight lifetimes!

I remember that his grandfather had said since he was a child that Mrs. Liu was too evil, so let him stay away if he had nothing to do.Although he obediently followed suit, he didn't really take it seriously.But until just now, he really felt that what Grandpa said was right.

Where is this Mrs. Liu just evil?It is simply not a living person!

The more the young man thought about it, the more frightened he became, to the point where he only felt dazzling when he saw the bright red happy characters held up by the send-off team.

Don't dare to think too much.The young man immediately came to the front of the team and shouted loudly: "Please get off the sedan chair! Don't delay the auspicious time!"

They had gone through the process of welcoming the bride many times beforehand, so at his urging, the matchmaker who was in charge of welcoming the bride opened the car curtain.

In the sedan chair, before Shao Feng had time to get up, a rough hand stretched out from outside.

"Bride, please get off the sedan chair."

Seeing Su Ji not moving, the matchmaker urged again.Shao Feng gritted his teeth and finally put his hand on it cruelly.

Because of the tight clothes and the opaque red hijab on his head, it was extremely difficult for Shao Feng to walk the short one hundred meters from the sedan chair to the altar.

However, in the eyes of the village chief and other insiders, this move turned into "Feng Wan'er deliberately delaying time because she missed her lover and was unwilling to marry the River God".

In order to prevent accidents from happening, the village chief immediately asked his subordinates to pull Su Ji from the sending team, changed his clothes, and stuffed him into the team of the envoy boy.

Mrs. Liu didn't seem to care about the actions of these people. After Shao Feng moved step by step and finally climbed onto the altar, she closed her eyes and shook the witch bell in her hand, and began to mutter a spell.

Accompanied by the sound of witch bells and chanting mantras, a strong wind suddenly blew up on the originally calm river.

The chilly wind howled, chilling people's backs, and making their teeth chatter with the cold.

Just when the crowd was about to lose their hold, Mrs. Liu stopped ringing the bell.

"Auspicious time-"

The moment the voice fell, a sudden force came from behind Shao Feng, as if being pushed hard by someone, he suddenly lost his balance.

Just hearing the sound of "Plop!", the bride in the bright red wedding dress in front of her was immediately submerged by the gloomy river.Only the red hijab soaked in water was left on the river surface, which hurt people's eyes.

Standing in the team of angelic boys, Su Ji witnessed the moment Shao Feng was pushed into the water with his own eyes, feeling a little horrified in his heart.

Just now, there was obviously no one behind Shao Feng...

What exactly is going on?

Before he could figure out what happened, a dull pain hit his back.Accompanied by the staggering of the feet.

After the feeling of weightlessness stagnated in the air for two seconds, the icy cold river water immediately submerged his whole body.

Before sinking into the water, he saw Mrs. Liu, who had a dull expression, suddenly grinned, revealing a meaningful smile.

It's like a smile that sees the prey and is determined to get it.
