Chapter 262

"Hey, don't rush away!" Xi'er hurriedly called him and said, "Wait a minute." After saying that, she came to Qingran and said, "Sister, let's go and have a look too!"

"Alright." Qing Ran nodded, she never imagined that there would be such ignorant humans on this continent, sinking a living girl into the bottom of the river, could it really keep this place safe all year round?Such a superstitious human being, it was the first time she heard of such a superstitious human being in this world for so long.

As soon as Qingran agreed, Xi'er smiled happily and said, "Let's go! Take us with you, maybe we can save your beloved woman for you!"

"Really?" Upon hearing this, the young man's eyes suddenly lit up with hope, looking at the young master and lady who looked like immortals in front of him, he thought to himself: Maybe they can really help him.

"Of course, let's go! If it's too late, they will sink your beloved Xiaojuan to the bottom of the river." Xi'er said with a smile, and walked forward holding Qingran's hand.

Seeing this, the young man quickly walked ahead and led the way.Yi Zijing looked at the smiling Xi'er, couldn't help but shook his head with a smile, this girl has been so enthusiastic about everything along the way, I really don't know what to say about her, alas!

Seeing Yi Zijing's appearance, Zhu'er and Guo'er couldn't help but secretly covered their mouths and smiled, and also walked forward.

Above the endless river, the torrential river is flowing, and the turbulent flapping sounds are like the low roars of wild beasts, rolled up and down heavily, arousing countless waves splashing, wave after wave The water of the great river is full of ripples, sometimes it is as quiet as a lake, and sometimes it is as turbulent as a sea...

At this moment, the riverside is full of people from Licheng. This day is the most important day of the year. No matter who you are, you must put down what you are doing and come here to watch the ceremony. In the mouths of the people in Licheng , this once-a-year sinking river is sacred but not profane.

The wind on the riverside is stronger than that in the city, and the wind on the river surface drives the river water to beat non-stop. The majestic sound resounded on the river surface one after another, reaching everyone's ears. The wind carries the smell of river water, which smells like freshness and a bit of salt.

And the people who were coming to the river pushed the girl on the shelf to the front, and set up an incense table by the river to worship. The middle-aged man in Chinese clothes is the city lord of Li City. Under his leadership, all the townspeople behind him knelt down and kowtowed respectfully to Da Jiang three times, and the only one standing there was the girl who was about to be sent to Shen Jiang.

The girl in a red dress was swaying with the wind by the river. She faced the river and turned her back to the people behind her, crying silently, tears slipping into the corners of her mouth. The taste of salt could not compare to the despair and sorrow in her heart at this moment.

No matter how deep the pain was, it couldn't hurt her father who was serving her wholeheartedly and pushed her in front of the city lord. She always thought that no matter how good her father was at gambling, he wouldn't treat her like this, but she didn't expect that he For the 100 taels of silver, just ignore her life or death.The person she loves is the only one who treats her sincerely. He used to tell her to leave this place with him, but she refused to go with him because she couldn't bear to leave her father here alone. Dying down in the corner of the street, the person who was selected as Shen Jiang, no one can save her, at this moment, she has only one way, and that is Shen Jiang!

The city lord of Nali City stood up, looked up at the sky, and asked, "How long is it before Chen Shi?"

A man at the side replied: "City Master, there is only one stick of incense left and it will be Chen Shi."

"Well, as soon as the time comes, send her to the river." The city lord of Licheng said in a low voice, his eyes swept across the river in front of him, and his heart was filled with sadness. I don't know why this example of sinking a young girl every year It has existed since when, and in his generation, he dare not abolish this ancient rule handed down from ancient times. After all, it is related to the safety and life of the people in Licheng. It is better to believe it than to believe it. , this is what they have always believed in.

Qingran and his group followed, pulled the young man and did not let him approach, but stood looking at the people in front from a distance, while thinking about how to deal with the matter in front of them.

"Master, miss, just let me go! Although I can't save Xiaojuan, I can't let Xiaojuan die alone like this. I'm going to accompany her, I'm going to accompany her..." The man Seeing his beloved woman standing on the bank of the river, he felt anxious and red-eyed.

"If you want to save her, don't make noise." Qingran glanced at him and said lightly.

"Sister, do you have a solution?" Xi'er blinked her big eyes and looked at her expectantly. Even Zhu'erguo'er on the side also looked at Qingran. Jiang, anyone would feel unbearable.

Yi Zijing put his arms around his chest and said, "There's no way to do this. The easiest way is to save the girl."

Hearing his words, Xi'er thought for a while and said: "If that's the case, although she can escape the catastrophe, there will be another girl who will sink to the bottom of the river instead of her!" If this can solve the problem, They have already done it, so there is no need for him to say it.

"Uh..." Yi Zijing, who didn't expect her to say that, thought that this was really the case, and was immediately speechless.

"Then what should we do now?" Zhu'erguo frowned slightly, she couldn't use force, so she could only use wisdom, but what should be the best ending?What should be done so that the people in Licheng will never arrest the girl and bring her to Shenjiang again?

Seeing that their eyes were all on her, Qing Ran secretly sighed, her calm eyes fell in front of her, and said indifferently: "I didn't think of it now." This is related to the thoughts of these city residents. How can it be so easy to change their thinking? If it is really so easy to solve, then there will not always be incidents of girls being sunk in Jiang.

Seeing that none of them had any ideas, the young man couldn't help but feel even more anxious. He originally thought that they should be able to save Xiaojuan and help them, but he didn't expect that they had nothing to do with this matter. Could it be that Xiaojuan really To be sunk into the bottom of the river by them?
