Zodiac Survival Game

Chapter 250 It’s all sacrifices
Seeing what Li Dekai said, Lin Qing on the side said, "I also think this is what we need to find out most at the moment. Let's divide into two groups and go to the village to find out!"

Everyone had no objection to Lin Qing's proposal, so they divided the five people present into two groups.

Among them, Liu Xuanmiao and He Ge formed a group, and the remaining three automatically formed a group.

After separating from Li Dekai and the others, Liu Xuanmiao and He Ge went to the nearest home where they were putting up window grilles.

There are three people in this family, two adults and one infant child. The child is very quiet and neither cries nor makes noises.

I don't know if it was Liu Xuanmiao's illusion, but she always felt that the baby in her swaddling clothes was strange.

Seeing Liu Xuanmiao and the others appearing, the male owner of the family stepped forward and asked them, "What's the matter with you two?"

"We are here to participate in your village's sacrifice tomorrow. I would like to ask where the sacrifice is."

Liu Xuanmiao's words made the other party suddenly realize, "You keep walking eastward along this road. When you reach the end, you will see the ancestral hall of our village, where tomorrow's sacrifice will be held."

Liu Xuanmiao was a little surprised to see that the other party told her the location of the sacrifice so readily, but on the surface she did not show any signs of it.

After thanking the other party, Liu Xuanmiao and He Ge walked towards the easternmost ancestral hall.

After walking for about 10 minutes, they finally arrived at the ancestral hall that the male host had just mentioned.

The ancestral hall in this village is very solemn. Anyway, Liu Xuanmiao feels that he would not come here if he was alone, because the place feels very intrusive.

Since the door of the ancestral hall was locked with a bronze lock, Liu Xuanmiao and He Ge could not enter.

But this may not be a problem for Liu Xuanmiao. After asking He Ge to give her a break, she took her lock picking tool and started to open the lock.

Since this kind of bronze lock was the first time Liu Xuanmiao had seen it, it took her almost 10 minutes to pry the lock open.

After picking the lock, Liu Xuanmiao pushed open the black door in front of him.

After pushing away, the first thing they encountered was dust. Seeing this, Liu Xuanmiao and He Ge did not go in immediately. Instead, they waited until the dust had almost dissipated before they walked in.

After entering, Liu Xuanmiao was also surprised by the layout inside. The layout of this ancestral hall was exactly the same as the layout on the fourth floor of the ancient building they had visited before, even half of it.

Of course, there are some differences. The first is the murals hanging on both sides, and the second is the golden incense placed on the table. Both of these are not found in the ancient building.

Just when Liu Xuanmiao and He Ge were thinking about taking a good look at the content on the mural, they saw Li Dekai and the other three arriving.

"You guys came so fast!"

Seeing what Li Dekai said, Liu Xuanmiao smiled and said, "You are not slow either! It's just the front and back feet."

Speaking of this, Liu Xuanmiao paused for a moment before continuing, "Does the layout here look familiar?"

Seeing what Liu Xuanmiao said, Li Dekai looked around carefully and then said, "It does look familiar! It's exactly the same as the layout on the fourth floor of that ancient building."

When he found the golden incense, Gu Tinghang was also very happy. He rushed forward with a quick step, "Is this the golden incense?"

After saying this, Gu Tinghang wanted to touch the five golden incense sticks on the table, but was stopped by Lin Qing who arrived in time. "Don't touch it blindly, who knows what the consequences will be if you touch it!"

Seeing what Lin Qing said, Gu Tinghang retracted his outstretched hand.

"Come here quickly, the content on this mural is very interesting!"

Hearing what Li Dekai said, everyone quickly gathered around.

"This mural is about the war, so they brought their families here to avoid the chaos. They spent a very happy time here. Just when they thought it would go on like this forever, a group of deserters broke into this area. At that time, they received each other very warmly, not only giving each other food and drink, some of the villagers even married their daughters to each other."

"They thought their lives would continue to live happily like this, but they didn't expect that the other party had evil intentions. Not only did they tell the outside world where they were, but they also wanted to poison the people in the village. If they hadn't been killed later, People found out in time that everyone in their village might be poisoned by the other side. In order to save their lives, they eventually moved to a nearby mountain. In order to prevent things from happening again, they set up a fake village to hide from others."

Seeing that Li Dekai had finished speaking, Lin Qing said, "Could this be the paradise recorded by Tao Yuanming? If this is the case, then I have a bold guess, whether the fisherman back then might have fallen into the game by mistake. World, is it precisely because of this that he can’t find the village when he goes back to look for it?”

Hearing what Lin Qing said, Li Dekai said with a smile, "It's possible. I prefer that the background of this game is based on the story of Peach Blossom Spring."

Having said this, Li Dekai paused and then said, "What do you think this mural wants to tell us?"

"I think this mural is trying to tell us that the people in this village are not as kind to us as we have seen. The reason why they are kind to us is for a purpose."

Seeing what Liu Xuanmiao said, Li Dekai said, "I also think that if he was still so kind to people outside after what happened before, then I would have to wonder if all the people in this village are virgins. You have all seen the virtues of the people in this village. Holy Mother and the others are definitely not. Since they are not, then they must have some purpose in letting us participate in their sacrifices, but what is this purpose?"

Just as everyone was thinking about it, they heard He Ge, who had been staring at the mural, say, "For reproduction."

"What do you mean?"

Seeing everyone looking at him, He Ge said, "What is the most important thing in the sacrifice process?"

"It's a sacrifice."

Hearing what Li Dekai said, He Ge nodded, "Yes, I suspect that we are the so-called sacrifices in sacrifices."

Seeing what He Ge said, Li Dekai thought for a while and then said, "If you say that, we won't be able to participate in tomorrow's sacrifice."

"Why don't you participate? Aren't you curious about what they worship?"

He Ge's words made everyone a little confused, "Didn't you already say that we are sacrifices? Now that you know that we are sacrifices, why do you still want to participate in that death sacrifice?"

Seeing everyone looking at him, He Ge said, "Because even if we don't go, we are still sacrifices."

"What do you mean?"

"You really think the sacrifices won't start until tomorrow?"

He Ge's words made Lin Qing a little puzzled, "Isn't it?"

"No, in fact, the so-called sacrifice has already begun since we entered this village. All the dead players are the sacrifices of this sacrifice."
