Chapter 13 The Bride of the River God 13(1/4)
The red spider crawled on the ground for a long time, and a big hole was made in the ground, but it could not be entered.
Bai Lixin walked over and put the rope around the red spider's neck again.
Red Spider: "..."
Probably because he was frightened by Bai Li Xin, Red Spider did not run away, but just whimpered a few times and followed Bai Li Xin obediently.
Bai Lixin held Red Spider by the hand and walked to the river like a dog, and found the missing players by the river.
A group of people spent a day and actually built a boat. At this moment, the boat was tied to the river bank, and the village chief was pouring oil on the boat.
All the villagers NPCs gathered here, including Granny Sang.
A bonfire was set up by the river, and dozens of villagers stiffly danced around the bonfire, but because of their stiffness, their whole bodies were like puppets with strings, shaking their heads in a twisted manner.
A live version of the zombie flurry.
The players were surrounded by these NPCs, with anxious expressions but had to dance along.
It was not that they wanted to jump, but that they seemed to have entered some kind of plot transition, and their bodies began to beat uncontrollably.
There was obviously less than 2 hours left! They were forced to go through the plot!
The sun had already set, and the forest in the distance was rustling and restless. Countless red spiders were entrenched behind the trees at the foot of the mountain, pairs of blood-red pupils shining with a strange and penetrating light in the moonlit night.
They kept rubbing their paws, spinning around wildly, wailing one after another, and greedily looking at the crowd on the other side of the river.
Seeing Bai Lixin coming over, the sullen village chief was so happy for the first time, and finally a weird smile appeared on his relaxed face. However, this smile froze when he saw the red spider behind Bai Lixin.
face.
Village Chief: "I was about to find you, but I didn't expect you to come here on your own."
[Friends] The discussion group in the chat suddenly started beating violently.
Xia Chi: [Brother, run! They want to capture you and sacrifice you!]
Zhou Guang: [Don’t come over, everyone’s bodies are being controlled!]
Liang Xi: [Bai Lixin, the village chief just said that he wants to vote on whether to offer a sacrifice! 】
Li Cancan: [I'm sorry, I was also controlled.]
Xia Chi: [Damn it, there is only 5% left. Brother! Choose one of four, Sang Baoer, Huang Youcheng, Sang Granny, and the village chief! There is at least 25% accuracy, you can fool any one! You win us a piece.
Get out, if you lose, we will die together!】
The village chief threw the oil drum aside and shouted: "Everyone, be quiet."
At the command, the villagers and players who had been dancing just now stopped their movements. They stiffened their bodies, walked quietly behind the villagers, and formed a neat and orderly formation in a vertical and horizontal formation.
The village chief sneered twice, "Now that the saint has arrived, let's start voting to decide whether the saint is qualified to become the new bride of the river god. If the vote passes by a show of hands, the saint will take a boat into the middle of the river and bathe in fire.
Become an immortal and marry the river god."
"Now, the voting begins! Those who agree that the saint will become the bride of the river god, please raise your hands!"
All the villagers and NPCs immediately raised their right hands stiffly, and the other five players raised their hands faster than these villagers and NPCs.
Zhou Guang and the others' faces were full of pain, and their bodies were spasming visibly to the naked eye, as if they were trying to resist some external force, but they were forced to slowly raise their hands under the strong pull.
Xia Chi shouted at the village chief: "This is not fair! We didn't raise our hands voluntarily!"
Li Cancan's eyes were red, her body seemed to be pulled by two forces, and her arms were raised in a very strange posture.
Blacksmith: "You don't raise your hands, do you want to kill everyone?! Sacrificing the bride can appease the anger of the river god, and we can get out alive. If you don't want to live, we still want to live! Kill him alone, save us
Everyone, he deserves his death!"
Zhou Guang: "Bah! Damn it, you deserved your death. Why don't you die at the expense of yourself!"
The blacksmith laughed wildly: "Hahaha, because I'm not a saint! How could the River God fall in love with me? He also falls in love with Bai Lixin, a pretty boy!"
Xia Chi: "Brother, run quickly! Don't sit still and wait for death. Just stab someone! Please, brother!"
Regardless of whether it was voluntary or forced, everyone's hands were raised.
There is only half an hour left before the last time for the river god's sacrifice.
The village chief's eyes were glued to Bai Lixin miserably, his face was twitching, and his bones were cracking, "Everyone has raised their hands, saint, it's time for you to sacrifice for everyone."
——
In the live broadcast room.
[What is going on? Doesn’t the system have regulations that the game cannot control the player’s body to enter the plot? The player can only transition the plot as a bystander.]
[I don’t know, this didn’t happen when I entered the game. Was it because I was getting closer to the truth and triggered some bug? 】
[This is unreasonable, and the player is not allowed to pass the level? Should the system check whether the copy has another bug?!]
On the barrage, countless [bug detection] barrages quickly appeared.
A few seconds later, a line of official barrages with a golden bottom scrolled across the top of the live broadcast room.
[Announcement: After receiving player feedback, the copy will be bug tested below.]
[Announcement: The detection is completed, no bugs were found, and the player's behavior complies with the game settings of this copy.]
Audience: [Hey, what’s going on? 】
——
Bai Lixin did not run away, but led Red Spider to the village chief.
"Village Chief, I made a small discovery."
The village chief looked at this "holy lady" who acted out of common sense in confusion: "What did you find?"
"I have been to Huang Youcheng's home. Miss Baoer tidied the room very cleanly. The clothes were neatly ironed and hung in the closet. The quilts were folded and even the shoes were placed neatly."
"It can be seen that she is a very planned and neat girl."
"If she really decided to kill someone one day, she would definitely pack her things first."
"But the open dressing box in her bedroom, the stained clothes in the closet and the moldy pot bottoms in the kitchen all indicate something. She may have thought she would be back soon, or maybe because of something
Things happened in a hurry, and it was not part of her plan anyway."
"Since it was not planned, how could he poison Huang Youcheng and then commit suicide on that day?"
"This is a question I haven't figured out before, until today I was locked in the study by you and found this."
Bailixin raised the yellowed notebook in his hand and said, "I walked around your yard while going to the bathroom, slipped into your bedroom, and found this diary."
The moment he saw the thing in Bailixin's hand, the wrinkles on the village chief's face suddenly tensed up, and he looked at Bailixin fiercely, "Thief, you thief! Give me back the thing!"
"Here, give it back to you." Bai Lixin actually returned the diary to the village chief obediently.
The village chief was stunned.
Bai Lixin then said: "Anyway, I have finished reading the content."
Village Chief: "You are shameless!"
Shivering!
The players were a little curious when they heard it, and Zhou Guang asked aloud: "What exactly was written in the diary?"
Bai Lixin: "I didn't write anything. I just wrote about my anger at being betrayed by Sang Baoer, the shame of being kicked out of the house by Huang Youcheng, the humiliation of being laughed at by the villagers, and the joy after killing Huang Youcheng and Baoer."
Everyone: "..."
Is this nothing?
This is a huge amount of information, okay?!
So putting Bai Lixin's words together, it means that it was actually the village chief who killed Huang Youcheng and Bao'er, pushed them off the boat and framed the blame on Bao'er?!
The village chief shook his head vigorously: "No, I didn't kill Bao'er, I just wanted to kill Huang Youcheng!"
"That bitch Bao'er promised that even if she got married, her heart would still be with me, but she just married Huang Youcheng for a month, and everything has changed."
"She said that Huang Youcheng was very kind to her and that she could not be sorry for Huang Youcheng. She also said that she would cut off all contact with me."
"This vain woman is just after Huang Youcheng's money!"
"That day when I was arguing with her, I happened to run into Huang Youcheng. When our affair came to light, Huang Youcheng beat me up and drove me out, causing me to lose all face."
"But I still love my Bao'er, but Huang Youcheng deserves to die!"
"So I wanted to kill him. I invited Huang Youcheng and Bao'er to the boat that day, saying I wanted to apologize to them, but in fact, I poisoned Huang Youcheng's wine."
"I originally thought that after Huang Youcheng died, Bao'er would return to my arms. But when Bao'er saw that Huang Youcheng was dying, she actually jumped into the river to die with him in her arms. No matter how I tried to persuade her, all she could say was life.
He is the Huang family, and he is the ghost of the Huang family."
"Hahaha, she wanted to be the ghost of the royal family, but I refused to let her go. I set up a memorial tablet for her in the Li family ancestral hall. I told the ancestors of the Li family that this is Sang Bao'er, and this is my Li Yizhi's daughter-in-law.
, she is my woman!”
Bai Lixin: "So you cursed Heshen Village?"
The NPCs in the village looked at each other, trying hard to express expressions on their stiff faces. Granny Sang had the most ferocious expression, but she just stood there, unable to move.
