I'm on duty in Yinshi

Chapter 123 Sacrifice
The sky was dark red and dim.

Standing in front of him was an ancient tree in the sky, its dark leaves covered the sky and the sun, and its branches were covered with fruits that looked like human faces.

In front of it, a group of people were kneeling, with their chests exposed and their lower bodies only surrounded by animal skins.

The sunlight through the cracks showed their shadows, intertwined and twisted like huge tree roots, with frenzied and crazy expressions, and kept bowing down.

"God Wu."

"God Wu."

Frenzied cries escaped from their mouths.

As if responding to their pious call, the ancient tree shook its branches slightly, and the fruit on the human face seemed to be smiling.

Tang Xiaotian had never had such a real dream.

He stood behind the group and watched them perform the ritual, not with animals but with people, a man, a strong man.

"Ulaha!"

A white-haired old man stood up in the crowd, with a gully on his face, wrinkled and crowded together.

He smashed the fruit of the human face with a stick made of branches, drew a strange symbol on the man's body with the sticky and dark juice, and then took the stone dagger to cut the blood vessels in his wrist.

A thick stroke of blood was drawn on the eyes.

Tang Xiaotian sneaked past the believers kneeling on the ground and came to the man, with an unattractive or even ugly face, revealing his incomprehensible fanaticism.

Immediately afterwards, the man turned around and lay down in the hollow of the tree.

Mutation prominence!

The small and long tree roots around him swayed and entangled the whole body as if they were alive, and some roots squeezed into the flesh and blood along the bleeding wound.

The severe pain made the man's face terrified, his veins burst out, and his robust body trembled endlessly.

It was at this moment that the old man recited a weird and tongue-in-cheek tune, and while waving his crutches, he performed a weird dance.

Behind him, a group of worshiping clansmen also got up from the ground, half squatted, their limbs twisted strangely, and strange syllables came out of their mouths, echoing the old man's song.

What is this place?
why am i here

Tang Xiaotian looked left and right, his expression flustered and terrified, all he could see were those crazy faces, ugly and hideous, especially the weird song pouring into his eardrums made him dizzy for a while.

The cruelty and bloodyness displayed by the primitive sacrifice made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

suddenly.

At this moment, Tang Xiaotian's eyes widened, goosebumps crawled up his back, he slowly turned around and looked back.

Under the twilight of the sky, a little man stood behind the crowd, stepping on the scarlet light, unable to see his face clearly, his eyes seemed to be looking at him.

Tang Xiaotian was a little out of breath.

Scared, scared.

Fill your heart.

……

……

"no no no!"

Tang Xiaotian got up from the bed abruptly, clutching the quilt tightly with both hands, breathing heavily like a bellows, his face covered in cold sweat.

He looked around in panic.

Anime posters, gunpla, curtains, and the dim night passed over the eye mask. The familiar environment gave Tang Xiaotian a much-needed sense of security.

He slowly began to calm down.

After the panic, all I could hear was my fast beating heart.

Tang Xiaotian rubbed his face wearily, and muttered to himself in a low voice: "Is this really a dream? But why is it so real?"

It was so real, until now he still remembered everything in the dream.The strange big tree, the ignorant and crazy people, and the little man who couldn't see his face clearly made him shudder with his deep malice.

Thinking hard to no avail, Tang Xiaotian quickly put this matter behind him.

It was just a dream after all!

I wanted to continue to sleep, but my body was sticky from sweating too much, so I simply got up and went straight to the bathroom to take a shower.

wow~
Tang Xiaotian came out wrapped in a bath towel, stood in front of the vanity mirror and wiped his hair, then reached out and pressed the light.

pat...

The moment the bright lights dim, they are turned on again!

Tang Xiaotian's terrified face appeared on the mirror, his Adam's apple was throbbing, he swallowed dry mouth and spit, and stretched out his hand tremblingly towards the mirror.

He in the mirror stretched out his hands together.

The two palms are pressed together.

"Am I wrong?"

Tang Xiaotian was still surprised and suspicious. When he turned on the light just now, he clearly saw him smiling in the mirror!
He randomly posed a few poses towards the mirror, staring at himself on the mirror, but there was nothing weird about it, it was not normal.

"Is it really dazzled?"

Soon.

Tang Xiaotian pressed the light, quickly returned to the room, covered the quilt and continued to sleep.

then.

Tossing and turning, lifting the quilt, covering the quilt, taking the mobile phone, turning off the mobile phone, over and over again, still unable to calm down to sleep, the dark room made him feel that a pair of eyes were watching him, so he turned on the light in fear.

As a result, Tang Xiaotian suffered from insomnia.

The puppet placed on the bedside table remained motionless.

……

……

The next day.

The dinner table.

"Did you not sleep well last night?"

Mother Tang picked up the porridge bowl and glanced at Tang Xiaotian with a concerned tone.

"Well, I had a nightmare last night."

Tang Xiaotian yawned.

The edge of the eyeball is very blood red, but fortunately, he is young and full of energy, so he doesn't feel mentally ill even if he doesn't sleep all night.

"I'll go to the Civil Affairs Bureau in a while."

Hearing these words, Tang Xiaotian felt complicated in his heart, and raised his head to look at his mother.

It's just that Tang's mother was already immersed in the porridge at this time, and she couldn't see the expression on her face clearly, but the speed of chopsticks was much faster.

"Oh."

Tang Xiaotian replied sullenly.

"Do you want to be with your father or your mother?" Mother Tang continued to ask.

"..."

Tang Xiaotian didn't answer.

Tang's mother didn't ask any more questions, she just cleaned up the dishes, picked up the bag and went out.

Bang!
"Tang Xiaotian."

"Tang Xiaotian!"

"Tang Xiaotian, sir is calling you!"

Tang Xiaotian raised his head in a daze, and got up from the stool. He didn't know what the husband asked.

then……

"If you don't read well, then you go out and stand!"

Tang Xiaotian pushed the stool away with his knees, and when he turned around, he saw "Lin Xin" smiling gloatingly behind his back.

The two looked at each other.

In a trance, his face changed to that of his companion again.

hallucinations!

……

……

Tang Xiaotian woke up like a dream when the bell rang all morning.

A person picked up his schoolbag and walked on the way home.

It was also a coincidence that as soon as he came out, he saw Lin Xin and his group walking towards him.

The eyes are all gloomy.

Lin Xin curled his lips unhappily, and muttered a few obscenities in his mouth.

Thanks to Li Kui's threat, the two have barely been in conflict recently.What's more, for Lin Xin, that revenge not only caused him to lose his wife and lose his army, but also created a gap between the few people who usually played with him.

You must know that the medical expenses of more than a dozen people are quite a lot.

Because of this, the resentment towards Tang Xiaotian in his heart became more and more profound, but he was too jealous of Li Kui, so he did not act for a long time.

The two passed by.

at this time.

Lin Xin suddenly noticed a puppet lying on the ground, the workmanship was very delicate, the face was that of a six or seven-year-old child, and the smile was very pleasing.He picked it up by accident, put it in his hand, and looked at it carefully.

"Yo, that little bastard's?"

The accomplice looked at it curiously.

"Ah."

Lin Xin squeezed it, it felt good, and said with a sneer, "Masters are still playing with dolls like girls."

Toss and turn.

He happened to meet the doll's eyes, his expression was a little dull for a moment, a faint light in his eyeballs disappeared quietly, and his smile became weird.

"Catch him back!"
