When the two of them were talking just now, their voices were not loud.
Yuan Dashan couldn't hear much.
Chi Zao recognized it and repeated a few words in a low voice to ask what he meant.
Yuan Dashan was very surprised, "You have such a good memory! What these two sentences mean is that they were invited as guests by the priest in the village."
"priest?"
"Yes. There is a holy place in Shiren Village, and sacrificial activities are held every year. Therefore, their village has a priest who has been passed down from generation to generation in the family. It is said that he can channel spirits, see ghosts and gods, communicate with the true god of the holy place, and bless their people in safety and health."
Yuan Dashan was following behind the villagers of the Cannibal Village, explaining to Chi Zao and others as they walked.
Chi Zao paused after hearing the words and said calmly: "Uncle Dashan knows a lot. He has been to this cannibal village many times before?"
"That's not the case! I can be considered a GB after all, right? Although Shiren Village is located in a remote area, it still falls under the jurisdiction of Changxing Town. I am sometimes forced to send warmth here. At least a year
I've been here three or five times. I don't think I'm particularly familiar with the villagers of Shiren Village. At most, I'm vaguely familiar with them."
Yuan Dashan sighed, "Look, you don't know when this will end. Fortunately, as long as I survive the last half year, I can be transferred out of Changxing Town."
Hua Shixin was confused: "Uncle, wouldn't it be better if you asked my mother to help you deal with your situation before? Why do you have to stay here for so long?"
When these words came out, the expression on Yuan Dashan's face visibly stiffened for a moment, but he quickly returned to his original state, and he laughed and said, "Aren't you afraid of troublesome your mother? Your mother is not easy now, isn't she?"
Hua Shixin sighed, "My mother is a bit stubborn. After all, you are also her biological brother."
Yuan Dashan was silent.
No words were spoken.
Chi had been following him for a long time, and with a glance, he could see that his face was extremely gloomy.
Hua Shixin is still talking about fucking things.
The more he spoke, the uglier Yuan Dashan's face became, and there was even a hint of hatred in his eyes.
fleeting.
"arrive."
Chi Zao said two words coldly, interrupting Hua Shixin's chatter, "Take out Bai Xianglei's photo."
"Oh, yes!"
Hua Shixin hurriedly went to get the photo and handed it to Chi Zao.
Chi Zao got the photo and said, "Send one to each of them."
"good."
Hua Shixin really printed a lot of this photo in case he needed it in case of emergencies.
So soon they all had a photo of Bai Xianglei.
Yuan Dashan is no exception.
The group of people successfully followed the hunting team and walked into the cannibal village, which had opened its door.
The houses and buildings in this cannibal village are all made of wood.
Passing by, you can see many villagers from the cannibal village.
Everyone, men, women, old and young, was wearing the same clothes as the group of people they came in with.
You can still smell a few faint scents when you get close.
When the villagers saw them, their eyes were obviously filled with repulsion and vigilance.
Some of those holding children even turned around and hid the children from seeing them.
Hua Shixin touched his masked face a little depressed, and complained in a low voice: "I feel like that mother looks at me like a child trafficker."
Long Er was helpless: "That's my grandma."
Hua Shixin was stunned for a moment, then turned around to take a look not sure. "Oh, it's really grandma. There are so many wrinkles and age spots on her face."
It's not his fault.
At this point, the sky is getting dark.
In addition, this place is in the mountains and forests, in the mist, so it is normal to see it wrong for a while.
They followed the hunting team and walked forward. When they came to a very large wooden house, the team stopped.
Many villagers also came out to see the bears that the hunting team had shot, and they were all smiling. But when they saw Chi Zao and his group, the smiles on their faces instantly faded.
Everyone did not step forward to carve up the prey, but quietly dispersed.
The door of the big wooden house is closed.
The man at the head of the hunting team went to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, it became clear what was going on.
Chi Zao saw a thin old man sitting at the end, wearing black clothes, and next to him, there was an old lady sitting.
This old lady was wearing pure white clothes, and her hair was tied up in a ball on the top of her head. It was covered with feathers of some kind of bird and bones ground into the shape of hairpins. She looked to be at least seventy or eighty years old.
Wearing a necklace of wolf teeth around her neck.
No, to be precise, it's not just wolf teeth, but the sharpest canine teeth in the same part of various animals.
When Chi Zao glanced in.
The old lady also saw it.
Four eyes facing each other.
Chi Zao saw clearly that the old lady was blind.
The kind of blind person who has no pupils at all in his eyes, only the whites of his eyes.
Yuan Dashan on the side said: "Did you see that the old lady sitting there is the priest of this village? She is one hundred and twenty-nine years old this year, but she looks only seventy or eighty years old.
It is said that almost all the priests in their village can live to be around 130 years old. This priest will almost die this year, and they will elect a new priest by then..."
When Yuan Dashan said this, his tone was full of interest, "I heard that their ceremony to select a new priest is very interesting, and outsiders are allowed to participate. I will definitely come and see it again if I have the chance."
Long Er was surprised when he heard this, "Isn't the selection of a new priest an important matter within the clan? Why is it open to outsiders to come in and watch at this time?"
"This brings us to an interesting aspect of their priestly activities."
Yuan Dashan seemed to be reminiscing.
Hua Shixin was also curious, "What is the link that allows this group of people who are so repulsive to foreigners to allow outsiders to come in at such an important time? Could it be that the foreigners are captured and killed?"
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body.
No wonder he would think this way.
Doesn’t this cannibal village have the custom of cannibalism?
Yuan Dashan couldn't laugh or cry, "They don't eat outsiders. Otherwise, why do you think I dare to come here again and again?"
"What the hell is that?"
"Eating human blood."
Yuan Dashan spit out four words.
Hua Shixin and Long Er were both stunned for a moment.
Chi Zao frowned slightly, "This new priest has to eat the blood of outsiders in order to truly inherit the position of priest?"
Yuan Dashan nodded, "Yes. And as a reward, the villagers will bring blood donors into the holy land to make wishes to their true gods. I heard that the wishes of the true gods will come true. This is the reward they give. But I don't know the details.
I know. After all, the last priest succeeded to the throne was a hundred and thirty years ago. There are people who really wish to live now, right? And it doesn’t require much blood from you. Just cut your finger lightly and give them two drops.
Three drops, please.”
"It's really weird."
Hua Shixin couldn't help but touch his fingers, and then looked at the old lady sitting upright in the room.
It doesn't look like he's going to burp right away.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile and whispered to Chi Zao and others: "We probably don't have the 'luck' to attend the succession ceremony of the priest in the cannibal village."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the old lady who was sitting well just now suddenly slowly falling to the side...
