The Minotaur is a very famous monster in Greek mythology.

According to legend, it is the product of the union of man and cow, and its birth represents disrespect to the gods.It has a bull-headed human body, is cruel by nature, and likes to eat the tender meat of children.

Its father, Minos, locked him in a labyrinth, and every nine years, seven pairs of boys and girls would be sent in for him to eat.

The labyrinth, the tauren, and the corresponding characteristics are all matched one by one. The one they met last night can basically be confirmed to be the Minotaur.

Xie Baiyuan was standing by the window. The window that was damaged yesterday hadn't been repaired yet, so they found a piece of newspaper and pasted it on it, which looked a bit worn out.

Fang Li stared at the enlarged picture on the screen for a long time, and suddenly asked, "Is this thing afraid of snakes?"

Yu Jiaxi showed a blank expression.

There is no document that records whether the Minotaur is afraid of snakes. The only thing known is that the mythical Minotaur was finally killed by Theseus, the illegitimate son of the King of Athens, with a ball of thread and aperitif.

"Don't jump to conclusions." Xie Baiyuan said in a deep voice, "Let's see if there is any news recently...for example, missing persons."

Although he didn't know the reason, Yu Jiaxi immediately followed suit.

Click on the homepage of the news website, and the report on the missing child case in Tianshen Town is very conspicuous.

According to the report, the earliest missing children were five years ago. At that time, several children were playing in the lake. The adults only left for a while, and the children disappeared when they came back.

At first everyone thought that traffickers had abducted the children, but a few days later, the missing children returned.

They were wrapped in thick plastic wrap, the meat was eaten clean, and the bones were exposed to the air.

Some people thought it was the work of wild beasts, some thought it was a human-induced tragedy, and some boldly speculated that it had something to do with the upcoming birthday of Lord Tianshen.

But there is no way to prove all of this, because no one has ever seen what that thing is.

In October of the following year, another child disappeared.

What is puzzling is that the place of disappearance this time turned out to be the home of those children.

According to the parents of the missing children, the children disappeared suddenly, and some of them just went into the house to use the toilet. When the parents realized something was wrong, the toilet was already empty.

Things got more and more serious, and the disappearances were no longer limited to children, sometimes teenagers, sometimes grown adults.

That thing seems to be hungry.

Panic gripped the town, and people began to look for countermeasures.

The report did not elaborate on the countermeasures, but judging from Zuo Kaihai's experience, either these countermeasures did not play any substantial role, or the people in the town concealed something from them.

This year until their tour group came to the town, there was no missing case, so the first missing case reported this year was Zuo Kaihai who was killed last night.

Fang Li thought of the snake skins hanging at the door of every house. Last night, he had some doubts whether these snake skins were used to drive away the tauren. After reading this report, his suspicion deepened a little.

If this is the case, the so-called hanging of snake skins to celebrate the birthday of the god of heaven seems a bit intriguing.

What was even more frightening was that Xie Baiyuan suddenly said: "What do you think they worship every year?"

Yu Jiaxi smiled forcedly: "Didn't you say Master Tianshen..."

Xie Baiyuan shook his head and said only one sentence: "It's not like that."

The two words almost choked Yu Jiaxi out of breath.

Fang Li himself felt a sense of disobedience, so he didn't react much when he heard this.

His focus is on another matter: "Is it related to this matter that the school asked students to stay in school in October?"

It is not so much that the school authorities lock the students in the school, it is more like the school authorities are protecting the students in this way.

"In fact, there is another problem that needs to be paid attention to." Xie Baiyuan said, "We walked around the neighborhood yesterday, including this morning, and we saw that the residents in the town are generally adults over the age of 50. Where are the children and the elderly going? gone?"

Gu Feng speculated: "Maybe they are all at home and did not come out. After all, these two types of people are more likely to encounter danger."

What he said was not unreasonable, Xie Baiyuan stroked his chin and pondered for a moment, "Well, if you have time, go to school again."

Since the school keeps the students in the school, there must be some countermeasures to protect the students from being killed.

Maybe the secret is hidden in the school.

And so another day passed.

Xie Baiyuan originally wanted to explain clearly to Fang Li before going to bed, but for various reasons, the two adults next door slipped over with Xinxin and said they wanted to squeeze with them.

Gu Feng is a real daughter slave. In order to protect Xinxin's safety, he would rather bite the bullet and bear Xie Baiyuan's death stare, and he would lay the floor in Xie Baiyuan's house no matter what.

Yu Jiaxi ran over here while knocking on the door. Xie Baiyuan leaned on the door frame when knocking on the door, and was about to slam the door after one glance at her.

Yu Jiaxi raised her hand and swore: "I will never disturb you!"

Xie Baiyuan: "Aren't you in the same room as the tour guide?"

Yu Jiaxi: "The tour guide fell asleep, I sneaked here."

Xie Baiyuan: "..."

The last room was crowded with five people, two were on the floor under the bed. Xie Baiyuan and Fang Li were lying on the bed. And interrupt the speech.

Back and forth, Xie Baiyuan stared, Fang Li had already rolled up the quilt and fell asleep.

Mr. Xie probably hasn't been so aggrieved since he was born.

So the next day, Fang Li opened his eyes, yawned halfway, and immediately noticed two eyes that could not be ignored were staring at him closely.

He turned his head, and the low air pressure emanating from Xie Baiyuan's body rushed towards him.

Fang Li: "...good morning?"

Xie Baiyuan turned over, as if he wanted to continue thinking about life facing the ceiling.

After a while, he said "Morning" sullenly.

After washing up, several people went downstairs to have breakfast.

At the dinner table, the tour guide told them happily that they were going to visit a place today, and they would definitely like that place.

Breakfast is white porridge with a few leaves of green vegetables floating on it, steaming.

"There are still five days before the birthday of Lord Tenjin. We will lead everyone to participate in this sacrificial ceremony. By then, everyone will be able to experience the unique local customs and culture."

As soon as the tour guide finished speaking, the faces of the people at the dinner table turned greener than the green leaves floating on the porridge.

The girl in the young couple is named Zhong Chuling. While the tour guide was serving porridge, she put down her chopsticks and complained in a low voice to her little boyfriend: "What kind of God is this? It doesn't sound like a serious god. Are we really going to worship?" No?"

The boyfriend kept pointing his index finger at her: "Shhh, please keep your voice down."

Zhong Chuling wearily said I got it, and kept stirring the spoon in the porridge bowl.

Her boyfriend is good in everything, but a little cowardly.

After the meal, the tour guide waved the little red flag.

"The journey is a bit long, but when you arrive at your destination, you will know that the journey is worth it." The tour guide forced everyone to pour a pot of chicken soup.

However, it was obvious that this pot of chicken soup was far from enough to support them for the next five kilometers.

Yu Jingmiao wore a pair of [-]cm high wedges today, and her heels hurt from walking.

Once Zuo Kaihai died, she and Wu Cheng became more and more unscrupulous.Hearing that her feet hurt, Wu Cheng immediately bent down and carried her on his back.

Zhong Chuling immediately stabbed her a few words on the side.

When everyone was walking with their throats dry, two ox carts happened to pass by.

Xie Baiyuan stopped the ox cart and discussed with others. In the end, twelve people divided into two groups and got on the ox cart.

The old man who drove the cattle said that he was going to the village in front of him. The tour guide's eyes lit up and he asked, "Is it the Water God Village?"

The old man said yes, and the tour guide said that they happened to be on the same road.

Only then did everyone learn that they were going to Water God Village today.

Tianshen Town, Water God Village.

Fang Li thought of the first line of the ballad: Master Tianshen sleeps, Master Water God sleeps.

The information in this line of lyrics has been forgotten by them all the time. If the residents of Tianshen Town believe in Master Tianshen, will there be a corresponding "Master Water God" in Water God Village?

He subconsciously wanted to tell Xie Baiyuan this discovery, but when he turned his head, he saw Xie Baiyuan squinting his eyes, looking like he was sharpening his knife.

Fang Li had a bad premonition in his heart: "What are you thinking?"

Xie Baiyuan really made a dangerous speech: "I was thinking, what will happen if the two masters get together?"

Fang Li: "...Are you serious?"

Xie Baiyuan raised his eyebrows at him: "It's just a joke."

Fang Li was even more sure that Xie Baiyuan was serious just now.

Gu Feng sat in the same car with them, heard the words and leaned over and whispered: "What two masters?"

Fang Li glanced at Xie Baiyuan, and replied in a low voice: "We suspect that there may be a master of the water god in the water god village we are going to."

Gu Feng thought about the ballad for a while, and also thought it was very likely.

He didn't hear Xie Baiyuan's dangerous speech, but he was curious about the connection between the two masters.

Of course, nothing can be seen from the ballad. Only the first sentence of the ballad mentions the water god master, and the information is very limited.
