When Jiujiu thought that the bones would hit the people around her, the bones seemed to be blocked by an invisible barrier and fell to the ground.
Carefree looked behind him.
Ten pairs of boys and girls were carried out.
The boys and girls were wearing the same brand new clothes, but all of them had tears in their eyes. Many little girls were wailing as they were carried to the edge of the river.
Obviously, they knew what they were about to face.
Jiujiu looked at the tearful faces of the children, and waves of emotions rose in her heart. She had the urge to save these children.
But at this moment, Carefree suddenly turned around and looked at a little girl who was crying non-stop. He frowned and asked, "Who brought her here?"
The elder that Jiujiu saw before immediately stood up. "Replying to the priest, I brought her here."
"She's not a girl. Change her."
"But she's only eight years old?" The elder was in disbelief.
"If I say she's not, then she's not. I'll give you half an hour to change her. Otherwise …"
The elder's face turned pale, and he hurriedly said yes.
The elder quickly took the little girl away. After a while, he brought back a crying little girl.
Seeing this little girl, Carefree turned around and continued to look at the river. Obviously, this little girl was a girl.
The sacrificial ceremony continued.
Four men carried ten children and walked to the river.
The ten children were placed next to Carefree in the order of a boy and a girl.
After the four men left, a long sword suddenly appeared in Carefree's hand, and he pointed the sword at the river.
A ferocious monster appeared out of thin air in the river, and it quickly pounced on Carefree.
Carefree raised his sword and chopped off the monster's limbs. After everyone heard the monster's painful howl, the boys and girls that were around Carefree just a moment ago disappeared into thin air.
After the monster disappeared, the boiling river calmed down again. Carefree seemed to have used up all his blood and Qi, and he sat on the ground in exhaustion.
The surrounding people first exclaimed, and then the families who lost their children cried out.
A layer of white fog appeared around Carefree, and as the fog became thicker, Carefree's figure could not be seen.
Everyone quickly left.
With Xiaoyao as the center, the fog spread out little by little, turning the whole Li's Village into a vast expanse of white.
Jiujiu followed the crowd back to the inn and saw Chen Xiaoyao and Zhang Jinkang sitting in the hall.
Seeing that Jiujiu had returned, Chen Xiaoyao immediately walked over to Jiujiu and asked with a look of reproach, "Where did you go just now?"
"I'm going to watch the ritual."
"Have you forgotten what I told you yesterday? Hurry up and come with me. I'll take you away from this place. "
After Chen Xiaoyao finished speaking, she grabbed Jiujiu's arm and dragged Jiujiu out.
Chen Xiaoyao's hand was like an iron hoop that gripped Jiujiu's wrist tightly. She was so strong that Jiujiu was almost dragged forward by her. Under such circumstances, Jiujiu was not allowed to say 'no' at all.
Behind Jiujiu, Zhang Jinkang was also following Chen Xiaoyao.
Because the Li's Village was shrouded in white fog, Jiujiu could not see clearly where Chen Xiaoyao was taking her.
She only knew that she kept walking forward. She didn't know how long she had been walking, but when she stopped, she was actually in a cave.
The cave was very dark, and there was a stench inside.
As Chen Xiaoyao moved forward, the stench became stronger and stronger, and finally it became nauseating.
Chen Xiaoyao slowly stopped, looked into the cave and shouted, "Can't you clean yourself up? You're so disgusting. "
"Disgusting? Then aren't you more disgusting than me?"
"Shut up. I've brought her here for you. Where's the thing I want?"
"Bring her here for me?" The other party chuckled, and then Jiujiu saw a figure slowly walking out of the cave. When the figure came to her, Zhang Jinkang behind her shouted, "Why are you here?"
"Why can't it be me?"
The person who came out of the cave was the owner of the incense and paper money shop.
The owner first looked at Zhang Jinkang, then looked at Jiujiu. When he saw Jiujiu, he frowned, "Chen Xiaoyao, what do you mean?"
Chen Xiaoyao was startled, "What do you mean?"
"The person I want is this little girl. Do you want to steal her from me?"
Hearing that the owner wanted Jiujiu, the disgust on Chen Xiaoyao's face became even stronger, "Why would a man like you want a woman's body? The man behind you will give it to you."
"I don't want him." The owner rejected Chen Xiaoyao without hesitation, and looked at Jiujiu greedily, "I've lived for so many years, and this is the first time I've met such a pure and tempting soul. I must have her. As long as I can have her, I can win against Xiaoyao."
At the end, the owner's face was almost twisted.
"My body is reaching its limit. I must have her body. This time, I won't give in."
"Then do you think I'll let you?" The owner chuckled, "Chen Xiaoyao, you're just a little girl over a hundred years old. What do you think you have to fight with me?"
Being grabbed by the owner, Chen Xiaoyao's face turned pale. She gritted her teeth and said, "Haven't you heard that a rabbit will bite when it's anxious?
Xiaoyao has already said that he wants to marry this woman. If you have her all to yourself, do you think Xiaoyao will let you go?
Don't say that you'll win against Xiaoyao if you have her. No one knows what Xiaoyao will do when he's angry. "
Chen Xiaoyao's words reminded the owner of some things, and his face became more hesitant.
"If not, I only want her soul, and you can have her body. How about it?"
After weighing the pros and cons, the owner gave Chen Xiaoyao a proposal.
Chen Xiaoyao was already prepared to do this, so naturally she agreed.
Jiujiu, who was being discussed like a commodity by the two people, suddenly laughed after hearing their words.
"One of you wants my body, and the other wants my soul. Have you ever asked if I'm willing?"
Chen Xiaoyao instantly smiled.
"Do you think you have the chance to say no?"
"Compared to you two monsters, I think my chances are much higher." Jiujiu turned her head and looked at Zhang Jinkang, who was running out of the cave but was grabbed by a monster who kept screaming. She looked at the owner and asked, "Who are you?"
"Who do you think I am? Who do you think I am?"
"If I think you're a monster, are you also a monster?"
The word monster was like a sharp thorn that pierced the owner's heart. The owner gritted his teeth and said, "Do you really think that Xiaoyao will come and save you if you delay for a while?"
"I don't think Xiaoyao can save me. I just want to know, who are you?"
"Who I am is not important. What's important is that you obediently become a part of me."
The owner looked at Chen Xiaoyao, "After I take her soul, you can do with her body."
