Linzi's grandmother stood at the bottom of the altar, and although everyone gave her a way to show respect, she was very small compared to the person standing on the altar.
Linzi's mother walked to the edge of the altar with a blank face and squatted down, looking down at the poor old man.
"How could I let him go, he's too important, it's you who are too whimsical old lady."
She said in an extremely cold tone.
"Today in front of the big guys, I won't expose your true colors.
It's also for my mother-in-law's sake, but don't try to stop today's sacrifice, I'm not joking with you. ” She said word by word, Grandma Linzi trembled angrily, pursed her lips, clenched her fists, and couldn't say a word.
The old man's face became more and more ugly, and Linzi's father, the priest in a gorgeous god robe, walked up to the old man.
He said to his old mother: "You don't like to see this, just go back, we have waited for so many years, and finally we have to wait for this day, and the villagers have finally looked forward to new hope, and we will not give up." ” The old man's face had turned from pale to purple, and she had difficulty breathing, as if she had an asthma attack.
Finally, the old man slowly luded to the ground.
The woman immediately gave the robed ones a look and said, "Send her home." ” Those people immediately carried Grandma Linzi away, whether she was dead or alive, I don't know.
We had been repeatedly reminded that we should have left the village as soon as possible, and it should have been sincerely planned for us, but we didn't listen.
I finally understood that it was a transaction between the old man and Linzi's mother.
In order to protect her grandson, she betrayed me, thinking that if she handed me over, Linzi would be safe.
There should be a lot of details in this, but I can't figure out the reason for it now, and I don't have the heart to figure it out.
Because my life and that of Linzi are hanging by a thread, Wang Ying and Yaqing's life and death are uncertain, let alone saving Xiaoxue, I can't protect myself.
The woman squatted in front of Linzi, looking at her own son, there was no trace of pity in her eyes, and there was even joy in her indifference, she was like looking at a treasure, and her greedy eyes made her look like an old witch.
"Put him in the coffin."
She said coldly to the man in the robe.
The two of them walked over quickly, they were very strong, and they lifted Linzi up at once.
There was a burst of excitement from under the altar, and even a howl erupted.
The onlookers seemed to have been waiting for this moment for a long time, why did Linzi make them so excited, I didn't see them so excited when they used other people's sacrifices before.
The lid of the coffin was removed, and amid the frantic cheers of the people, Linzi was placed in the coffin.
Linzi's mother took the cleaver in the hand of the demonic woman and came to me with a smile and a strange look in her eyes.
Under the reflection of the firelight, a large shadow appeared on her face, making her look like an old youkai.
"I really didn't expect that you would send yourself to the door, and when you die, all of us will be saved, including your good brother, my good son, he will also be grateful to you" I was tempted to ask her what she meant, but I couldn't speak.
"You know why," she asked with a sly look.
I nodded.
She smiled, and opened her mouth to speak, when the high priest began to urge her.
"The time has come, hurry up and do it."
The woman didn't say anything more, but excitedly held the knife and plunged into my shoulder, the sharp blade starting from my shoulder and slashing into my little arm, and my skin hurt hotly.
The wound was not deep, but a lot of blood was shed.
When the knife slashed into my little arm, she looked at my arm with delight while cutting harder, it hurt.
At this time, Linzi's father handed her a silver wine glass.
She placed the glass under my arm, blood dripping into it, and Rinko's father chanted an ancient incantation.
It suddenly occurred to me that Linzi's brother had also gone through such a step before he died.
Then it's time to rip out my heart But instead of doing so immediately, she walked to the front of the coffin with a glass full of blood.
She raised the glass directly above Linzi's body, tilted it slowly, and my blood poured on Linzi's body.
Before the blood was poured, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted, "Oops, my house is on fire" Directly west of the altar, a house was on fire, and the fire was blazing.
Although it was night, it was not too far away from the house and it was facing the street, so it was clear who had caught fire.
The man looked at the priest and the others on the altar and hesitated, and could tell that he wanted to put out the fire, but did not dare to move.
Mother Linzi stopped pouring blood, clutched the silver wine glass, and suddenly said, "It must be the gods who are not happy, so they are warning us with fire, and the gods are reminding us that we need to hurry up and perform the ritual."
But as soon as she finished speaking, the frightened screams of a middle-aged woman came out of the crowd.
"My house is on fire, too," she exclaimed, pointing in the direction behind me.
I couldn't see what was behind me, but I could see the flames burning in the woman's eyes.
What I couldn't understand was the reaction of the others, who all fell to their knees.

No one ran to put out the fire, except for the parties, and when they were about to leave to put out the fire in their own house, Linzi's mother was angry.
"The gods will punish those who disrespect it, if you leave without permission, the sacrifice ceremony cannot be carried out, and you will be punished in the future, don't blame me for not saving you."
It was just two simple intimidating words that scared everyone, and no one dared to move.
Even their own homes are going to be destroyed, what is the point of sacrifice I especially wanted to shout out and tell them to go and put out the fire.
Mother Linzi smiled with satisfaction and said some incendiary words, what gods will bless you, all the nightmares will be over after the sacrifice is over, and so on.
Looking at that bewitching woman again, I feel even more hopeless, because what she is best at is hypnosis, and there is really chaos when joining the villagers, and I believe she has a way to solve it.
I closed my eyes and waited to die.
The man on the altar let out an even more eerie incantation, and at that moment, the voice of a young boy came.
"Dad, it seems to be our family, and our family is also on fire."
I suddenly opened my eyes, and there were already three families on fire for no apparent reason It's just that this manifest god must have come to save me.
Then, one house after another burned, the houses were very close to each other, there were many trees, and the wind was blowing tonight, so the fire spread rapidly.
The crowd was chaotic, and I gradually realized that this fire was not the work of some god, and I am afraid that someone deliberately set it on fire. t1706231537:
