Traveling through another world as a sacrifice

Chapter 137
The weather this morning was a bit gloomy, the gray clouds gathered together as if it was going to rain, and the low pressure in the air made it hot and dry. As soon as Wang Xiaoyu went out, he felt as if he had entered a sauna room, his body was sticky Very uncomfortable.

Along the way, Wang Xiaoyu followed behind Charles silently. After the morning's impulse, she was filled with panic. The competition was about to begin, but she hadn't thought of a countermeasure yet. Now... what should I do.

Charles set the venue for the match yesterday. When the two arrived at the venue, they found that many people had already gathered in the square. These people were old and young, contestants and spectators. People seemed to form a circle. He looked at the center of the crowd with a solemn expression.

"Uh." Charles was obviously a little surprised, and when he was about to tell Wang Xiaoyu to go somewhere else, he found that someone had disappeared.

"What the hell are you doing?" At this moment, Wang Xiaoyu squeezed into the crowd with great effort. Fortunately, she was small and compact, so she squeezed into the front of the crowd from the outside after a while.Originally, she thought that people were watching something amusing, but she didn't expect that there were a pile of corpses in the middle of the field.

This group of corpses still retains the appearance before death, with protruding eyeballs, distorted faces, and thirsty blood attached to the pale skin. In just one night, most of the corpses began to rot and smell. So many corpses gathered together The resulting stench, like a strong emetic, constantly irritated Wang Xiaoyu's fragile stomach
"Hmm..." Wang Xiaoyu covered his mouth with his hands, trying his best to restrain the desire to vomit, and the acid water that kept coming up made his throat uncomfortable.With so many people around, if she spit it out in front of her face, it would definitely be an insult to the deceased. Wang Xiaoyu thought she didn't have the courage to provoke public anger.

Just as Wang Xiaoyu was about to withdraw from the crowd, he suddenly saw a familiar figure on the opposite side, and looked up with joy on his face; "Uncle, uncle." Seeing the mood of an acquaintance made Wang Xiaoyu's tone a little excited, which made everyone around her feel happy. The people in front of her were very displeased, and they all looked at her coldly.

"Girl, why are you here?" Arnold noticed the dissatisfaction of the crowd around him, and he immediately dragged Wang Xiaoyu to a corner with few people. Seeing that no one was paying attention, he breathed a sigh of relief on his resolute face.

"Uh, it's not all because of that stinky boy yesterday. He insisted on competing with me, and made a big noise at the door all morning. I really hate it." Thinking of Charles, Wang Xiaoyu frowned.

"It turned out to be like this. I thought you were also here to participate in the Requiem Festival." A Nuo habitually rubbed Wang Xiaoyu's hair, and there was a hint of sadness in his blue eyes.

"Requiem?" Wang Xiaoyu was attracted by the new term in Anuo's mouth. She chewed the word carefully, combined with the scene environment, she seemed to understand something.

"Don't you know about the Requiem Sacrifice, Xiaoyu?" A Nuo raised his voice, and he looked at Wang Xiaoyu with wide eyes in surprise. In his cognition, almost everyone knew it, because it was common sense, and Wang Xiaoyu Xiaoyu didn't know, which made him surprised.

Wang Xiaoyu looked at A Nuo's surprised eyes, and the corner of her mouth twitched. She felt that she seemed to have accidentally committed a common sense problem. Nuo was startled.

After thinking about it, Wang Xiaoyu forced a forced smile on his face and said, "Oh, requiem, of course I know, I was just joking with you, uncle."

"Oh, that's right." A Nuo glanced at Wang Xiaoyu, and a trace of rare doubt flashed across his eyes.However, seeing Wang Xiaoyu's appearance, he was a little evasive, so he didn't ask any more questions.

In the following time, Wang Xiaoyu once again experienced the essence of feudal society. It turned out that the so-called Anshen Sacrifice was similar to modern monks and psychics, and its main function was to pray for the dead.Looking at the old man who danced in front of him, Wang Xiaoyu suddenly remembered the first time he came to this world.

Time flies, it suddenly seems like a dream, and it has been a year since I came to this world in the blink of an eye.What happened this year is like looking at flowers in a fog, hazy, seemingly real but not real.Looking back on the past, Wang Xiaoyu felt a little emotional.

"Girl, it's time to pray." Suddenly, Wang Xiaoyu felt someone tap her on the shoulder. She came back from her thoughts and turned to A Nuo's worried face. I'm fine.

Wang Xiaoyu originally heard the word "blessing", and automatically made up the things she did in the temple every day, but she didn't expect that the next scene would completely petrify her. She imagined that praying should be to say some blessings, but she didn't expect The reality is quite the opposite.

I saw people starting to circle around the corpse, spitting on the corpse while talking, and those people looked serious, and they didn't seem to be doing it maliciously. Such a weird behavior made Wang Xiaoyu She couldn't help but twitch her eyebrows, because she thought of the scene in The Legend of the Condor Heroes when the beggar gang helped take office.

"Pfft." Wang Xiaoyu was in a low mood at first, but seeing such behavior, he couldn't help but want to laugh. Everyone around him looked solemn. If he couldn't control it at this time, he would definitely die.Turning around in a circle, Wang Xiaoyu's face was flushed from holding back her laughter, if she didn't explain, she was about to suffer internal injuries.

After praying, the rest of the matter was much simpler. People began to clean up the scene, and those corpses were carried away one by one. As for where they went, Wang Xiaoyu wanted to know.She tugged Anuo lightly, and when she saw that he was paying attention to her, she said in a low voice; "Uncle, what will be done with these corpses?"

A Nuo glanced at Wang Xiaoyu strangely. Although he thought it was a little strange for the other party to ask this question, he did not pursue the question, but carefully explained the following things.

After hearing Anuo's explanation, Wang Xiaoyu understood in his heart that this requiem offering was the same as what he saw in the temple before, it was nothing more than letting the dead bodies be eaten by birds.

After all the corpses were carried away, an old man with a beard came to the scene. Wang Xiaoyu stared for a long time and finally recognized that the old man was yesterday's referee. The other party came here just to announce the match.Although such an accident happened, the game continued. In view of the bad weather today, the game will be held tomorrow.

After getting the news, the crowd started to leave. Wang Xiaoyu planned to go back with Anuo. As they walked, she asked casually, "Uncle, why don't you consider cremation?"

"Huh? Cremation?" Arnold raised his eyebrows, as if he didn't understand.

"Look, the weather is so hot, corpses will rot under the high temperature, which is easy to breed bacteria, and bacteria will cause plague. Let me tell you, plague is a terrible..." Wang Xiaoyu broke into pieces. While reading, she didn't notice that A Nuo's face gradually changed.

Over the years, A Nuo has learned some medical knowledge in order to treat his old mother's illness. Although he can't understand some terms that came out of Wang Xiaoyu's mouth, he probably understands them all. It is precisely because of this that A Nuo's mood When he started to get excited, he suddenly remembered what Wang Xiaoyu had promised at the beginning. Could it be that the other party was not joking, but really capable?
"Hey? Uncle, what's wrong with you?" While talking, Wang Xiaoyu suddenly felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere around him. After talking for a long time, why didn't the other party respond at all?Wang Xiaoyu turned his head to look, a pair of black eyes happened to meet Anuo's excited eyes, and for a moment, a strange throbbing flashed in his heart.

"Xiaoyu, I..." A Nuo looked at Wang Xiaoyu with burning eyes, and his hands tightly grasped Wang Xiaoyu's shoulders. The meaning in those eyes was somewhat incomprehensible.

It was the first time Wang Xiaoyu saw Anuo's excited appearance, and the hotness in the other's eyes made her heart beat like a drum. All along, she did have some affection for Anuo, but before the emotions were sorted out, the situation in front of her made her She was a little dazed, could it be that the uncle treats her...

"Bang bang..." Wang Xiaoyu only felt his heart beating extremely fast. At this juncture, an unexpected thing happened. Charles found Wang Xiaoyu's figure at a glance when the crowd dissipated. Nuo was still there, rushed forward, grabbed Wang Xiaoyu's wrist and dragged it away.

"Ah, bastard, let me go, do you hear me!" Wang Xiaoyu struggled to break free from Charles' grip, but the other party seemed determined to drag her away.In desperation, Wang Xiaoyu could only cast his eyes on A Nuo who was behind him for help.

Seeing this, A Nuo hurried over, after all, with the strength of an adult, he rescued Wang Xiaoyu from Charles' grasp.As soon as Wang Xiaoyu was rescued, she immediately hid behind Arnold, opened her eyes, and gave Charles a middle finger with both hands.

"Arnold, what do you mean, do you want to protect him again? I tell you there is no way this time, but he personally agreed to my challenge." Charles said preemptively before Arnold could speak, and he said it deliberately Loudly, this attracted the attention of the people around, and immediately some curious people surrounded him.

Wang Xiaoyu originally thought that if A Nuo came forward, the other party would leave, but he didn't expect that the other party would not give up. Seeing the crowds gathering around him, Wang Xiaoyu didn't want A Nuo to be looked down upon by everyone because of protecting her, so she stood up Stepped forward and stood up from behind Arnold.

"Hmph, finally stopped hiding?" Charles looked at Wang Xiaoyu with a mocking smile on his lips. Even so, his handsome face still caused screams from the female compatriots around him.

"Bah, I didn't hide. I don't want to compare with you because I lost too badly to you and I can't bear it. Since you are so anxious to lose face, don't blame me for not giving you a chance." Wang Xiaoyu spat, her tone arrogant Said extremely.

"Hey, well, there are so many people testifying at the scene, do you dare to compete with me?" Charles was not irritated this time. It's sarcasm.In his opinion, Wang Xiaoyu has no chance of winning at all, and his appearance is just a bluff.

"Pull what, compare... just compare." Wang Xiaoyu avoided the other party's eyes and said with some lack of confidence.
