Plane game: mental disorder at the beginning

Chapter 169 Living Sacrifice to Sea God
Before she could explain anything, Zhong Xuan staggered and was dragged away by the middle-aged woman.

Fortunately, she has a calm and calm personality, and if she really fights with an NPC, she doesn't know what strange things will happen.

Not long after disappearing from the sight of the two, Zhong Xuan sent a message.

"Zhong Xuan: The village chief is looking for me. I don't know what it is. You should find a place to spend the night first. I will look for you at night."

"Fang Jingzhe: Let's go to that dark room. NPCs in other places don't care about people, let alone staying overnight."

"Zhong Xuan: That's fine, contact me anytime."

"Yan Ruxue: Where's your companion?"

"Zhong Xuan: If he came, he would definitely look for us too. If he didn't come, it would be useless to look for him."

Fang Jingzhe and Yan Ruxue followed the way they came, and returned to the door of the black house.

"Old lady, can we spend the night here?" Yan Ruxue pushed open the door and asked in a low voice.

The old woman was still standing behind the door, and she said with a gloomy face: "There is an empty room at the back, you can live in it if you want, as long as you are not afraid."

"Thank you, old lady."

Soon the two found a smaller house made of palm leaves next to the main house. In the small room, there was only a bed made of straw mats.

The whole house had a musty smell and was damp to the touch everywhere.

Fang Jingzhe pressed the bed, feeling the wetness from his fingers, "This house must be leaking, the bed is all wet."

"I feel okay, how about I ask the old lady if there are other rooms?"

Yan Ruxue obviously felt that ever since she got the identity of this pearl diver, she had an inexplicable affinity for water, and what was wet was the nourishment of water in her opinion.

Fang Jingzhe shook his head, found a dry place and sat down, his legs seemed to be filled with lead, and now he could rest.

He really didn't expect that the debuff of "lingering sick bed" is so powerful, and he is such a strong man, if he can't do it, he can't do it.

Seeing that the sun in the distance has begun to move westward, the forest covered with dense branches is gradually darkening.

Before it was completely dark, Yan Ruxue went out to find something to light a fire.

When the orange-red flames danced in the room, Fang Jingzhe's body finally felt warm.

……

After nightfall, Zhong Xuan came.

As soon as she entered the house, she put down a big burden on her body, which contained several coconuts, cassava, three grilled fish, and a small piece of steamed bread.

"I stole these from the kitchen at home. You are all hungry, eat something quickly." Zhong Xuan said while taking the things out, "I have big news."

It was okay if they didn't see the food at first, but when they saw the food suddenly, Fang Jingzhe and Yan Ruxue realized that their stomachs were empty.

The two of them were not polite, but Fang Jingzhe didn't even open the coconut, and Yan Ruxue helped him drink it in the end.

"What's wrong with you?" Zhong Xuan asked in puzzlement.

Fang Jingzhe waved his hand, "Don't mention it, my current status is a sick beauty. However, I feel that my status must be of great use. By the way, what is the big news you just said?"

"It's the old woman in this house. She used to be a witch on this island, but a few years ago there was a plague and many people died, so her status was no longer good. In addition, a powerful witch doctor came, and later she became a witch. There are not many people enshrining her, and the dark house was originally the largest building in the village, but now it has been converted into a morgue."

Fang Jingzhe nodded, "No wonder, she can talk to us, maybe it's because her status as a witch in the past allowed her to be unrestrained?"

"I heard from my cheap village chief's mother that the sacrificial ceremony will be held tomorrow, and the witch doctor will definitely be there."

"What sacrificial ceremony?" Yan Ruxue asked.

"It seems to be a ceremony to worship the sea god. You all know the strong winds and rainstorms during the day, right? There have been more and more bad weather recently. It is said that it was caused by the failure of the last sacrifice, so three consecutive sacrifices will be held within seven days in order to Calm the anger of the Sea God. Tomorrow is the first match, and the islanders will all be present."

Fang Jingzhe: "Then you must go and see it tomorrow. If your partner is also here, it will definitely appear."

"Fang Jingzhe, do you know how to leave this other world?" Zhong Xuan asked.

"I don't have a clue yet, but I think it must be inseparable from the witch doctor and the little girl. By the way, do you know who is named Ah Yue in this village?"

As soon as Fang Jingzhe's question was out of his mouth, he saw the door was pushed open from the outside, and an old woman in black stood at the door.

She was still hunched over, but everyone could feel that she scanned the whole room with her eyes, and then she said hoarsely, "Ah Yue, why are you here?"

At this time, the old lady's face was facing Zhong Xuan.

Both Fang Jingzhe and Yan Ruxue turned their heads to look at Zhong Xuan, while Zhong Xuan pointed at herself, "Me? My name is A Yue?"

"Hehe, what's your name if you don't call Ah Yue? Didn't your mother tell you not to go out at will? Why don't you listen?"

"Ah, I'll deliver food to them." Zhong Xuan said nonsense, anyway, there was indeed some food on the ground.

The old woman didn't even look at it, but said, "Go back quickly, don't worry your mother!"

After finishing speaking, the old lady left, and Fang Jingzhe suddenly asked, "Your name is Ah Yue?"

"No, it should be said that my identity is A Yue." Zhong Xuan corrected Fang Jingzhe's statement, and then continued: "I just found out, the village chief and others called me Xiaoyu before."

Yan Ruxue said from the side: "Could you be that little girl?"

Fang Jingzhe also had this guess, after all they all heard that little girl calling herself Ah Yue.

Zhong Xuan thought for a while, and then said uncertainly: "If I am Ah Yue, this is the inner world of the hot spring island, does that mean that this is the inner world of the little girl?"

"It's possible, so the little girl sent us here because she wanted us...to help her?" Fang Jingzhe finally caught this clue, and he continued: "Did the village chief not let you go out?"

Zhong Xuan nodded, "That's right, so I also sneaked out."

"Then you go back first, and wait and see what happens when you sacrifice tomorrow."

……

Silent all night.

Early the next morning, the old lady came to call Fang Jingzhe and Yan Ruxue.

"Sacrificing to the Sea God this morning, the two of you hurry to the beach in front. If you get there late, don't blame me for not reminding you. That witch doctor is not easy to talk to."

Fortunately, Fang Jingzhe and Yan Ruxue slept together last night, and there was nothing to clean up. They wiped their faces with the dew from the coconut shells last night, and then they followed the old woman to the beach.

On the way, they saw that all the islanders had changed their clothes, and changed their brightly colored clothes into darker plain colors, most of them were mainly gray and brown, while those dressed in black like the old woman , only a handful of people.

One of the middle-aged women in black was followed by Zhong Xuan wearing a bucket hat. If she hadn't sent a message to Fang Jingzhe and Yan Ruxue, they would not have recognized her.

At this time, several long gray-brown "rivers" seemed to appear on the hot spring island, and they were all silent, moving slowly in the same direction.

Soon, these gray-brown "rivers" gathered on an empty beach by the sea.

Then Fang Jingzhe and Yan Ruxue saw several middle-aged men with black ointment all over their bodies. They were all shirtless and carried a very narrow boat on their shoulders.

Fuck, the black man is carrying the coffin?
Oh no, lift the boat!

The BGM sounded in Fang Jingzhe's mind instantly.

But right away he found that the boat seemed to be shaking slightly. The shaking was not caused by the person carrying the boat, but it seemed that there was something in the boat.

When the boat was placed on the beach, Fang Jingzhe finally saw what was inside. To be precise, there was a half-grown child inside, and the face should be a girl.

She was lying on her back and was firmly fixed in the boat. In addition to her hands and feet being trapped by ropes, there was something stuffed in her mouth. At this time, she could only make a sound of "woo woo".

Yan Ruxue was shocked when she saw it: "Fang Jingzhe, this is..."

"Living sacrifice!" Fang Jingzhe's mood and voice were very heavy, he seemed to be able to imagine how desperate this child would be, waiting for the arrival of death.

At this time, the crowd pushed aside one after another, and a man wearing a mask came over. His mask was surrounded by long tassels, and his clothes were particularly loose.

He walked to the bow of the boat step by step, first stroked the child's forehead with his hand, and chanted a strange tone.

"Moha! Larsa Marsdo—"

"Ha! More Mars—"

Fang Jingzhe thought to himself: This should be a witch doctor.

Following the sound of this weird tone, those middle-aged men who were covered in black ointment began to tie thin branches on the sides of the ship, three on each side and a total of six.

Although the branches are very thin, they can stand upright on both sides of the ship.

When the branches were bundled, they draped a thin fabric over the branches.

After doing this, the middle-aged men all lowered their heads and knelt down facing the sea, and then they began to sing along with the tone of the witch doctor.

"Moha! Larsa Marsdo—"

"Ha! More Mars—"

Then the witch doctor reached out and took out the thing from the child's mouth. At this time, the child's face was already covered with tears. Although the thing in the mouth was removed, she was still crying in a low voice.

And all the people around were dumbfounded, and no one wanted to step forward to rescue her.

When the tone of the chorus suddenly became high-pitched, several middle-aged men kneeling in front of the sea got up and pushed the boat towards the sea, but the moment the boat entered the water, the tulle covering the branches burned.

Fang Jingzhe's eyes were full of shock. At this moment, he already knew why the little boss girl had burnt marks on her body and mud-like marks formed by water flow.

It turns out that the live sacrifice on Hot Spring Island is not just about tying children to a boat and pushing them into the sea, but sending the lit boat into the sea.

The child was tied to the boat and could not move, that is to say——

The little girl was first burned alive and then sank to the bottom of the sea.

It is even possible that they were only seriously injured by burns, and then thrown into the sea and drowned alive.

This resentment is so damn great, it is thousands of times bigger than jumping off a building in a red dress.

Soon the ship drifted away with the sea waves, and heart-piercing shouts came from the sea!

Even Fang Jingzhe and Yan Ruxue felt that the smell of burnt meat began to linger at the tip of their noses.

"It's too miserable!" Yan Ruxue couldn't stand it anymore, she turned her head to Jing Zhe and said, "That's how that little girl died, right?"

Fang Jingzhe nodded, "It seems to be like this."

Even though Fang Jingting didn't have the great heart to sympathize with the world, seeing such a scene, he couldn't help but clenched his fists.

He began to understand the mood of the boss in the hot spring town.

If it were him, let alone Hot Spring Town, the whole world would be yours.

"Zhong Xuan is Ah Yue now. Could it be... that she will also be sent to sacrifice to the sea god?" Yan Ruxue glanced at Zhong Xuan's position, and then said seriously: "She is the daughter of the village chief!"

Fang Jingzhe didn't speak, because he saw that the witch doctor seemed to have finished the ceremony, walked to the side of the village head, and took off the mask on his face.

And the face beneath the mask...

It was Han Lihui.
