The heavy rain was still falling continuously, and the mountain road became increasingly muddy. Logically speaking, it should be an inaccessible place, but a group of people was slowly moving upward.
This group of people were all wearing black cloaks, some were holding tools similar to parasols high, and a few were carefully holding burning torches to light the way forward.
In the eyes of a person with a normal IQ, this group of people is no different from a mentally retarded person, who is tired of living and looking for death. However, the expressions of this group of people are extremely serious, like pilgrims.
In addition, there were several people working together to carry cages covered by black cloth. There were about four or five cages. Feng Yi, who saw this scene in secret, knew in his heart that the cages contained children who were about to be sacrificed.
Wagyu beef, sheep and pig.
However, each cage was very quiet and there was no reaction. It seemed that they were stunned using a special technique.
These people are really well prepared.
Think about it, this ritual has been passed down for at least hundreds of years, and all aspects should be considered comprehensively. As long as there are no accidents during the climb up the mountain, there will be no problems with the ritual.
At this time, Feng Yi was not in a hurry to take action, he was prepared to wait a little longer.
Although these people are ignorant and insensitive, if they try to snatch the child away now, these people will definitely go crazy. The mountain road is so rugged and muddy, if one is not careful, he may fall down, and he may die or be disabled.
Feng Yi can be merciless when facing foreigners, but he still can't bear to deal with people from his own country.
They are very selfish, but they have no choice. In their view, it is worth sacrificing a small number of people for the sake of the lives of the majority.
Since the method of drawing lots has been passed down, it proves that everyone has acquiesced. Even if the draw is your own house, you can only reluctantly agree.
This team did not move very fast, but fortunately there were no accidents along the way, and they still successfully reached the prominent position at the top of the mountain.
The leader of the entire team was an old man with white beard and hair, and a face full of wrinkles. He was holding a strange-shaped wooden stick in his hand. He was pacing and muttering while the others bowed their heads respectfully and stood behind the old man, motionless.
, without saying a word, no different from the living dead.
Following the old man's roar, after he raised the wooden stick above his head, the people standing behind him all knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and murmured some words of blessing and blessing. Feng looked at it.
He kept shaking his head.
This kind of ceremony has no meaning at all.
As the heavy rain hit, large and small puddles gathered under everyone's feet. Listening to the roar and roar of the river below, the old man who had been frozen slowly put down the wooden stick in his hand and shouted with his pale lips:
"The living sacrifice begins!"
The strong men carrying the cages stood up, first lifted the three cages forward, and then threw them with all their strength. The cages drew a beautiful arc in the air, and then fell heavily into the water, and were instantly submerged by the surging river water.
Feng Yi still didn't move, because he clearly saw that the two cages contained cattle, sheep, and pigs.
Livestock...it's not worth selling.
Everyone waited for a while, and saw that the rain continued and the river continued to roar. A sad look flashed in the old man's eyes, but he still motioned to bring up the remaining two cages.
Everyone's faces showed unbearable expressions, and the soft-hearted woman buried her head in the man's arms. Some men glanced over silently, but no one spoke to stop them.
Four strong men carried two cages, walked to the edge with heavy steps, looked at each other with the old man, gritted their teeth after the old man nodded slightly, and threw the two cages out.
The next second, everyone knelt down on the hillside, buried their heads in the puddles, and prayed silently.
Feng Yi, who had been preparing in secret for a long time, was like lightning. As the cages fell downwards, he flew through the air like a ghost. He held the two cages tightly in his hands. At this time, the black cloth on the cages had flown away.
, two pink-carved dolls with eyes closed were lying in the cage, completely unaware of what had just happened.
The heavy rain drifted, the river roared, but nothing seemed to have changed.
"When they realize that life sacrifices are useless, they won't continue to carry out such rituals stupidly, right?"
Feng Yi and his two children were about to leave when the river below suddenly changed. A powerful aura spurted out from the river, turning into a roaring monster and attacking Feng Yi. The target was exactly the thing in his hand.
Two children.
"You bastard, you really are looking for death!"
Feng Yi had sensed the existence of aura in this river before, but he didn't expect that there was an evil spirit at work. He didn't just swallow live livestock, but he also wanted to eat people!
Before Feng Yi could say anything, the Seven-Star Longyuan Sword behind him flew up on its own, drawing a mighty sword light in the air and cutting the monster that jumped into the air into two pieces.
With an angry roar, the river monster dived into the water and disappeared again.
The next moment, a dark green figure passed by Feng Yi and followed into the river.
At the same time, the ferocious-looking Xuan Kui appeared in front of Feng Yi and stretched out his hand to him.
As Xiao Ke's biological father, Xuan Kui has been by his side all year round and has never left. Even when Xiao Ke was in Maoshan, he was always hanging around.
But for Feng Yi, Xuankui was grateful from the bottom of his heart.
Xiao Ke was safe in the B&B, so Xuan Kui followed Feng Yi to see if there was anything he needed help with.
Seeing a monster taking the initiative to attack, it was difficult for Feng Yi to pursue the monster with his child, so he showed up and extended his hand with the clear intention of leaving the child to me.
As for the dark green figure that just passed by, it was naturally Howl who lost to Xuan Kui in a fight. Ever since they lost, How Shu and Xuan Kui have been inseparable. Although they still fight non-stop when they are bored, the relationship between the two zombies is
They are becoming more and more familiar with each other, and their cooperation is extremely tacit.
Xuan Kui helped Feng Yi send the child back, while Ao Shu went to track down the river monster first.
Howl comes from the Skyfall Devil's Cave, and has been with the lake inside all day long. The water quality is very good, so it is best for him to pursue it.
From this point of view, the two zombies have already had a clear division of labor and a tacit understanding during their long-term companionship.
Feng Yi naturally knew that the two zombies had been following him. At first, he felt that there was no need for their help, so he did not call them out. He did not expect that there were really blind people. In this case, he had to have fun.
He handed the two children into Xuan Kui's hands with great trust. Xuan Kui's body was already soaked. He was a zombie and was not afraid of wind and rain, so he was naturally too lazy to cover himself. However, when Feng Yi handed the children over to him, he immediately
He released his breath to block the rain and prevent the two children from getting wet. Then he nodded to Feng, turned around and left.
"This old boy is becoming more and more popular as he gets older. He can even notice this little detail."
Feng Yi smiled slightly, then his smile shuddered, and he broke into the rushing river like a cannonball.
