Jiang Fang wanted to chase him out, but Qi Ling, who had been silent all this time, said, "You should take care of yourself first. Didn't you notice that there was something wrong with the way they looked at you during the day?"
Jiang Fang paused with his raised foot and asked, "I was just looking at that child during the day, but I didn't pay attention to them."
When she asked again, the Qi Ling was silent. For some reason, after coming out of Langtou Village, the Qi Ling seemed to have a bad signal.
Although he would still take out things as usual, he would say very few words, and sometimes he would disappear while he was talking, as if he had been disconnected.
Jiang Fang sighed. Since the weapon spirit reminded him so, Jiang Fang still carefully walked through the back door, feeling in the dark and not knowing where to look for Changsheng.
But as he walked, Jiang Fang could see faint lights on the mountain road, as if someone was going up the mountain at night.
Jiang Fang immediately thought of Changsheng. That direction seemed to be the place where he met Changsheng for the first time, which was the sacred tree in Changsheng's mouth.
Jiang Fang's heart tightened. She didn't know why, but she suddenly thought of human sacrifice in ancient times. During the day, she clearly heard the village chief's wife saying it was a divine punishment.
She quickened her pace and took another road to rush over. When Jiang Fang approached the sacred tree, the torch illuminated the area like daylight.
The sacred tree was surrounded by villagers holding torches, while Changsheng was lying on the side, seemingly unconscious. The village chief stood at the front, staring at Changsheng, with a trace of unbearability in his eyes.
At this time, a villager urged: "Village Chief, if you don't start, the good time will be delayed."
The village chief sighed: "Then get ready."
At this time, a goddess came in with a group of people wearing strange clothes. They danced strangely next to the sacred tree and muttered words.
Jiang Fang couldn't understand it, but he probably knew that they were some incantations, which were usually used for sacrifices. It seemed that they really wanted to use immortality as a human sacrifice.
These villagers stood aside devoutly. Halfway through the dance, the goddess suddenly took the lead and knelt down, and the villagers nearby also knelt down with cheers.
At this time, the village chief said: "Please bless the sacred tree. We have brought this ominous person. Please don't punish us!"
After saying that, he led the villagers to kowtow a few times. Just when Jiang Fang was thinking about how to go up and rescue people, he saw someone approaching not far away.
Jiang Fang's first reaction was Xiao Boyuan's people. After all, if they didn't catch him here, they would definitely not give up so easily.
Jiang Fang quickly grabbed a few handfuls of dirt and wiped it on his face, then lay down on the ground and did not dare to say anything. If Xiao Boyuan caught him now, he might have to sacrifice the sacred tree with Chang Sheng.
But when the people approached, Jiang Fang discovered that the leader was actually Duan Jiu. When Duan Jiu and the people approached, he glanced at Jiang Fang and prepared to leave.
Jiang Fang stood up quickly and was about to call Duan Jiu, but he was discovered by the villagers first. A villager pointed at Jiang Fang and said: "Village Chief, she is here!"
The village chief's eyes suddenly changed from pity to fierceness when he looked at Jiang Fang. He waved his hand and said, "Tie him over here!"
Jiang Fang still wanted to run away, but was held down tightly. Before she could get the anti-wolf spray, she was caught, tied up and thrown to Changsheng.
Jiang Fang frowned: "I asked myself that I haven't done anything to apologize to you, so what do you mean by tying me up?"
The village chief said: "I told you to leave immediately, but you have been lingering in our village and staying at Changsheng's house.
It was the arrival of you, a foreigner, that made the sacred tree even more angry and blamed us all the time. The village used to live and work in peace and contentment, but people have been getting sick for no reason during this period. It must be you unlucky people who have offended the sacred tree.
!”
This feudal superstition is really harmful. I really believe that there are gods in this world to protect me. If I get sick, I don’t know how to see a doctor, and I blindly seek the blessings of gods. If I don’t die, who will die?
Jiang Fang watched the fire in the distance slowly go away, and felt annoyed in his heart. He shouldn't have run out in such a hurry. Now that he was fine, people couldn't save him, and they caught up with him.
At this time, the goddess said: "Sacrifice these two people to the sacred tree, and our relatives will get better. The sacred tree will definitely forgive us!"
At this time, the villagers started to make noises and shouted to sacrifice them. Jiang Fang watched the goddess with strange symbols on her face walking towards him.
She struggled to retreat, but behind her was the thick trunk of the sacred tree. There was no place to move. Jiang Fang wanted to wake up Changsheng, but Changsheng didn't respond at all.
The goddess grabbed Jiang Fang's arm, took out a knife and cut Jiang Fang's wrist. Dark red blood flowed out. Jiang Fang did not dare to struggle, because she knew that the more she struggled, the faster the blood would flow away.
Just when Jiang Fang thought her life was about to be decided here, she vaguely watched the light in front of her eyes seem to be getting brighter and brighter. She thought she was going to heaven.
"Item Spirit, Item Spirit, the game is about to end, why haven't you said a word? It seems that the relationship between our master and servant is about to end here. It's so tragic, the task is still not completed..."
Jiang Fang's consciousness gradually became blurred, and his heartbeat became faster and faster.
When she woke up again, her first reaction was to pinch her face, but she found that it hurt. She wished that she had been dreaming just now, and that she had been in this world for a long time.
Dream.
But when she woke up and saw the antique decoration, she knew that she was not dreaming. The pain in her wrist also let her know that what just happened was not a dream either.
Jiang Fang sighed, and then the door was pushed open. Duan Jiu walked in with a bowl of soup. When he saw Jiang Fang woke up, he excitedly hugged Jiang Fang in his arms.
"Are you awake? As long as it's okay, it's okay."
Jiang Fang was hugged by Duan Jiu so hard that he couldn't breathe. He said quickly: "If you don't let me go, something will really happen. Come on, I'm going to be out of breath."
Duan Jiu quickly let go of Jiang Fang, then looked at Jiang Fang carefully from top to bottom, left and right, and asked, "Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
Jiang Fang quickly asked: "Where is the child with me?"
Duan Jiu's face darkened instantly. Jiang Fang couldn't even take care of it. He was still worried about the child. Could it be that Jiang Fang didn't even let go of a seven or eight-year-old child?
"Nothing's wrong, he's just in a coma. The doctor said he was weak. He took medicine and was resting in the room next door."
Jiang Fang felt relieved and touched his wrist. Fortunately, when the goddess cut his wrist, Jiang Fang turned his wrist sideways, thus not injuring his radial artery.
Otherwise, I might have died by the time Duan Jiu came, but looking at his dizziness, he probably had to bleed a lot.
