"Impossible! Impossible!" Liang Xiaoyu screamed loudly, as if he was crazy.

She held the rotting human head and kicked it on the bonfire support.

‘Crash’ the bonfire collapsed.

The flames became weaker and the surrounding area became darker.

Liang Xiaoyu hugged the head and ran towards the sea.

Yin Po said coldly: "It doesn't matter what she is like, don't let her hurt the messenger of the Lord!"

The villagers all started to move, and they moved very quickly to catch Liang Xiaoyu.

Liang Xiaoyu panicked and took a detour, trying to drag Zhenke into the water.

Ren Ke backed away repeatedly and shouted in a low voice: "Give them the heads back!"

Liang Xiaoyu said stubbornly: "No, this is my brother, my brother! I will not abandon him and run away alone..."

"Liang Xiaoyu, don't you understand? They say that your brother was the first to believe in the so-called Lord, and it was he who brought strange beliefs to the village..."

"Shut up! They are talking nonsense. My brother is a good man and would never do such a thing. He must have been bewitched by the villagers here!"

Ren Ke was anxious and angry. Seeing the villagers gathered around him, he decided to throw everything to the fire.

Ren Ke rushed towards Liang Xiaoyu, grabbed her arm, snatched the head from her hand, and threw it in the direction of the villagers.

"No!"

"elder brother!"

The villagers and Liang Xiaoyu shouted in pain.

The head still fell to the ground.

The villagers knelt down in the direction of the head and kowtowed crazily.

The mushroom on the human head emits a bright green light in the dark night, like a firefly, attracting surrounding insects.

Looking from a distance, I could see a green light flashing in the gap between the human head, like a will-o'-the-wisp.

A strange voice came from the head.

"Xiao Yu, I am serving the Lord, don't look for me, leave here."

Liang Xiaoyu was stunned, her whole body felt weak, and she sat down on the ground, looking at the head on the ground in disbelief.

"elder brother?"

"Xiaoyu, it's me. I'm very happy now, extremely happy. I've seen the world as it is. You don't have to worry about me anymore."

Liang Xiaoyu shook her head repeatedly: "Brother! Brother! Why are you doing this? You obviously have no faith. You clearly said you can't believe in strange powers and gods. Why are you like this..."

The head stopped talking, and the green mushrooms jumped up one after another, fell to the ground, and turned into long and thin worms.

These bugs burrowed into the soil and disappeared.

Yin Po gritted her teeth angrily: "Obviously it's about to mature, but now we have to start from scratch again... Hurry! Catch these two outsiders. Since they destroyed our medicine-taking ceremony, we will sacrifice them as sacrifices."

To the Lord!”

Ren Ke was shocked. The word "sacrifice" sounded terrible.

Liang Xiaoyu, however, still had her eyes drooped with tears, and she stood there blankly, looking in the direction of the person's head, feeling so sad that she couldn't help herself.

Ren Ke gritted his teeth, grabbed a long branch on the ground and started playing with the villagers.

Even though he was strong and well-muscled, he could not defeat the four-handed man with his fists, and was eventually subdued by the villagers.

Late at night, in a small village surrounded by mountains on three sides and water on one side, evil is openly breaking through the soil and growing unbridled.

Ren Ke, who was pushed to the ground, was punched and kicked by the villagers.

"I blame you! Otherwise, if I took the medicine, I would have two hands today!" This was the indignation of the man with four hands.

"Bah! You bastard! I greeted you warmly, but you actually ruined my good deeds! After tonight, I would be able to walk upright during the day!" The woman with a deformed spine was filled with resentment.

Ren Ke remained silent.

A huge panic struck him.

He wanted to say that the people in this small village were ignorant and engaged in these useless feudal superstitions. Even if he and Liang Xiaoyu were killed, they would not be able to get back the so-called mushroom medicine that can cure disabilities.

But just now, he saw a rotten human head talking. He saw the mushrooms growing on the human head emitting green light. He saw the mushrooms jumping out of the human head and turning into insects.

His worldview suffered a huge impact.

He even thought that maybe his death and Liang Xiaoyu's death could really cure the disability of the entire village.

He and Liang Xiaoyu were tied together, and the heavy hemp rope made him unable to breathe.

Liang Xiaoyu was stunned and remained silent. She was even more stimulated than Ren Ke.

Ren Ke really had no choice, so he secretly criticized Liang Xiaoyu and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Liang Xiaoyu, what did your brother write in the letter? Since your brother is the messenger, you, as his sister,

, you should have a say anyway, right?"

Liang Xiaoyu finally regained her composure, and she said blankly: "My brother persuaded me to believe in the Lord and serve the Lord like him. He said he had left a good seat for me. As long as I go over, I can listen at a close distance.

By following the Lord's teachings, you can feel happiness forever and know the truth of the world..."

Ren Ke glanced at the villagers who were wearing masks and carrying them forward, gritted his teeth and said, "How can I believe in the Lord?"

Anyway, he is destined to die. Maybe if he believes in the so-called Lord, there is still a way to survive.

Liang Xiaoyu was silent for a long time, and then said with a trembling voice: "Let someone cut off your head, throw the part below the neck into the ocean, bury the head in the soil, and you can go there in seven or forty-nine days."

Serve the Lord.”

Speaking of this, Liang Xiaoyu said with a hint of sarcasm: "If you want to serve the Lord, hurry up and tell these villagers. They will be very happy to get the medicine."

"Why don't they just make us into petri dishes for mushrooms?"

"If you want to serve the Lord, you must be willing, otherwise death is death. Ren Ke, do you want to serve the Lord?"

"..."

Ren Ke thought of Liang Xiaoyu's brother's appearance, pursed his lips uncomfortably, and finally shook his head and said: "Forget it, just die, at least you can have a good time."

Liang Xiaoyu seemed to be very satisfied with his answer, and whispered slowly: "Actually... there is another way..."

Ren Ke and Liang Xiaoyu were thrown into a dark cave by the villagers.

The voice of the Yin Po came faintly, moist and gloomy: "Throw down the bad mushrooms."

Countless mushrooms fell out of the hole. These mushrooms looked very ordinary, no different from the mushrooms we eat in daily life.

The villagers covered the cave and the last light disappeared.
