Chapter 3
Qiangzhong Tianlu Village.
Today is the day to pay homage to He Bo. Early in the morning, the whole Tianlu Village is busy.
Tianlu Village is surrounded by mountains on all sides, and only a big river named Qinghu runs through it, criss-crossing four villages, and finally falls into the sea.
Twelve years ago, this clear lake suddenly flooded, and the river surged, submerging four villages.
And the flood has never receded.
Almost killed the people in these four villages.
Later, an old man came from nowhere. This old man pinched his fingers at the flood, and another person talked for a long time, bluntly saying that the people in Tianlu Village offended He Bo and caused He Bo to get angry. The flood flooded four villages.
The people in the other three villages were suddenly furious.
Since it was the people of Tianlu Village who offended He Bo, and He Bo wanted to take revenge, naturally it should be Tianlu Village, why did the other three villages get involved?
The old man stroked his beard and told them that it was because there were too many in-laws in the four villages.
When the villagers in the other three villages were furious, the old man asked Tianlu Village to enshrine a woman to He Bo every three years, so that He Bo's anger could be appeased.
The villagers of Tianlu Village are naturally unwilling, but how can the villagers of one village support the people of the other three villages.
The day after the old man finished speaking, the villagers of the other three villages threw the most beautiful girl in Tianlu Village into the river.
And the flood really receded the next day.
The villagers of San Village were so convinced by the old man that they forced the villagers of Tianlu Village to enshrine a girl to He Bo every three years.
Especially after this incident got out, the villagers in ten miles and eight townships were unwilling to marry girls from Tianlu Village, and they were also unwilling to let their own girls marry to Tianlu Village.
Those girls married from Tianlu Village are even more pitiful.
Either divorced or severely abused.
Didn't you hear what the old man said?These three villages are like this because they are in-laws of Tianlu Village——
And this year, it has been 12 years since that flood.
In their village, the fourth girl will be sacrificed.
Although they were very reluctant, they couldn't bear the pressure from other villages——
Zhao Shifa, the village head of Tianlu Village, burst into tears, and his wife, who was beside him, also tightly covered his mouth to prevent himself from sobbing.
The tribute boat has already set off.
The tribute on board is the daughter of the village chief.
is his only daughter.
"Susu, I can only send you here."
Zhao Ling grabbed Zhao Susu's hand, "Brother has prepared some silver taels for you, and you can run away with these silver coins later. Don't come back again, go as far as you can."
"Brother, you are crazy."
Zhao Susu tore off her hijab, saying it was a hijab, but it was actually just a piece of red cloth.
"If I leave, what will our village do?"
"I can't control that much now."
Zhao Ling said in a cold voice, "Anyway, if this continues, our village will disappear sooner or later. It's better to save one person." The women outside dare not marry in, and the women in their village are not allowed to marry outside— —
Zhao Ling hated it in his heart.
He originally had a fiancée, a girl from Tianfu Village, but after the accident in Tianlu Village, someone from her family came to withdraw the marriage.
He doesn't blame her, people go to high places, Tianlu Village has become like this, it is normal that she doesn't want to marry.
But their family shouldn't push his sister out.
"elder brother--"
"I can't leave. If I really leave, our family will have no place in this village. Brother, I won't leave."
Zhao Susu shook her head.
If she could, she didn't want to die, but there was no way, no way——
"Zhao Susu, listen to me, our Tianlu Village will be gone sooner or later, if you can leave, it counts as one."
"Brother, what do you mean?"
Zhao Susu's face froze, "You—"
"Three years ago, I also let A Ling go. You see, nothing happened at all." What the old man said was completely nonsense, but the people in these villages couldn't understand it, and they didn't want to listen to it. .
They just want to see their Tianlu village unlucky.
"But--"
"There's nothing wrong with it. You take these things and hide first. This old man's lie will be exposed one day. When the time comes, you will come back."
"We brothers and sisters will always meet again one day."
Zhao Ling gritted his teeth and said.
He felt anxious, but there was nothing he could do.
"puff--"
Just as the two brothers and sisters were talking, a pair of hands suddenly climbed onto the side of the boat.
"who?"
Zhao Ling quickly grasped the oars and stood in front of Zhao Susu.
"Don't be afraid, brother will protect you."
"Brother, could it be that He Bo?" Zhao Susu's voice trembled a little, although her brother told her that there is no He Bo in this world, but what if?What if this Hebo exists?
"No, it seems to be a girl?"
Zhao Ling quickly leaned over.
"You are--"
"I'm a human." The man at the bow finally climbed up after exhausting his strength.
Zhao Qing was panting heavily, his face pale.
"Not a monster."
"Why are you in this clear lake?"
Qinghu Lake is extremely deep, the river is fast-flowing, and there is Hebo, basically no one will approach here.
She hadn't even eaten fish for a long time.
Feeling a bit hungry for no reason——
Zhao Susu shook her head, no, now is not the time to think about this.
"I—I was pushed off a hill."
Zhao Qing stretched out his hand and pointed at the faintly visible cliff.
"what?"
Zhao Ling and Zhao Susu's eyes widened in disbelief, "You fell from such a high place, are you okay?"
Is that human being?
"Who said I'm fine, I have two broken ribs."
Zhao Qing said depressedly, clutching his chest, "It hurts badly."
If the master hadn't tempered her body, it wouldn't be as simple as breaking two ribs.
Zhao Qing originally thought that she was going to die, but the moment she was submerged by the river, and the moment she passed out again, she really felt that she was finished.
Who would have imagined that when she was young and ignorant, something she fiddled with would save her.
That day, when her senior sister was concocting alchemy, she had fun for a while, and followed her senior sister's example, putting some materials into the alchemy furnace,
To be honest, it's a pretty dangerous thing to do.
After all, whether it is alchemy or weapon refining, there is a danger of frying the furnace.
However, these materials have been screened by the senior sister, and will not cause serious accidents.
Therefore, the senior sister also let her play.
Finally, she made two pink beads.
However, she and her senior sister have studied for a long time, but they still haven't figured out what the function of this bead is.
Because the color is very beautiful, the senior sister made these two beads into two chains, one for each of the two senior sisters.
Who would have imagined that this pink bead turned out to be a water-proof bead——
