Chapter 481 Sacrifice
This is when Mr. Kong and Mr. Zhong were young!
Mrs. Kong was stunned and looked incredulous.
The battle-hardened guests immediately realized something and their expressions suddenly froze.
The air suddenly became dead silent.
【I wipe it, I wipe it, open the screen and hit it! 】
【Is it so exciting to come here so early in the morning? 】
The little star stretched his head and looked at everyone's solemn expressions in confusion: "What's wrong? Isn't this a good thing?"
"What's this called... a flashback? Someone's just delivering the truth of the past to us, saving us from tearfully searching for clues. How convenient!"
Everyone:……
The director's eyes lit up.
“Why did you only show up in the last episode?
Wrong, if you had shown up earlier, you would have been a guest."
"Little sister, big brother!" The little girl waved at them and took them to sit in the crowd.
The residents of the island were busy preparing for the sacrifice. Except for the little girl, everyone seemed to ignore them, like NPCs.
The little girl brought some plates of food and placed them in front of them.
They are all fresh produce and homemade pastries.
"Eat it, you don't usually have any of this to eat."
Only on this day will we have such good food.
The children in their fishing village look forward to this day every year.
only……
The little girl thought of something and lowered her eyes sadly.
It seemed that many of her playmates, like her sister, had gone to a big city far away.
When can she go there too?
Kong Jiye and Zhong Wenran stared at Mr. Kong in the crowd without blinking.
No one moved.
Tang Yue and Qiao Jiatong nervously leaned against Jiang Xu and whispered, "Master Jiang, this is the actual scene of the sacrifice on the island that year."
"Could it be that the sins committed by the Kong family are related to sacrifice?"
“It always feels very weird.”
Zhao Xin looked at the food on the plate in front of him anxiously: "Could this be human flesh?"
Jiang Xu glanced at him and said, "Don't worry, this isn't it."
Zhao Xin:!
Then what is!
Bonfires were lit on the beach and sacrificial offerings were placed.
The fishermen sat in a group.
The sacrifice began.
Kong Chunshan respectfully helped an old woman out.
She started to chant some incomprehensible spells and the people around her started to dance.
Suddenly, Kong Chunshan took out a box and the old woman reached into it.
"It's Xiaohua's house!"
"It's Xiaohua's house!"
Everyone cheered.
"What's the meaning?"
Xiaohua jumped up, her eyes sparkling. "Our family has been blessed by the Sea God. We'll have good weather and good harvests next year! We'll catch lots of fish!"
But everyone noticed the panic that flashed across the eyes of the chosen man.
Afterwards, he was uneasy throughout the entire ceremony.
【Family, I think I guessed it. 】
【I also……】
Unlike before, the barrage was quiet.
The women all go home to cook first.
Xiaohua invited, "Do you want to come to my house?"
"No, no." Everyone waved their hands quickly.
The next second, it became dark outside.
In a low house.
Xiaohua and her family sat happily at the table.
"So many delicious foods!" The food that day was particularly sumptuous.
The woman laughed.
"Now that I have been given shelter, I will have plenty of delicious food to eat and won't have to go hungry anymore."
The man didn't eat, he just kept smoking.
The woman looked at him with some confusion: "Dad, what's wrong with you?"
The man met her and Xiaohua's concerned gazes, his heart trembled, and he hurriedly looked away.
He stood up and walked out: "Nothing, I just ate too much at the sacrifice, I'm not hungry, you guys eat quickly."
"Eat more chicken legs. They're hard to buy on the island."
Xiaohua leaned close to the woman and said something. The woman nodded and gently touched Xiaohua's head.
In a blink of an eye, the scene in front of me changed again.
“??? What’s going on?” The little star widened his eyes and huddled together with Zhao Xin silently.
Kong Jiye's expression was stiff, he bit his lips and stared at everything in front of him.
"Hurry up and keep your voice down."
"What are you afraid of? We've drugged all the women on this island. They can't hear."
Kong Chunshan, Zhong Guangwen and the men on the island held torches and walked into the house as if they didn't see them. They picked up the unconscious Xiaohua.
Just as he was about to take it out, the man subconsciously reached out his hand.
"Liangzi, why are you reluctant to..."
The man called Liangzi stammered, "We already had a child three years ago, and now... they're going to make our family extinct."
"That can't be helped. This is the instruction from the Sea Goddess. Do you intend to disobey her?"
"Have you forgotten? If we hadn't offered sacrifices to the Sea Goddess every year and received her protection, would we still be alive today?"
"She's just a little girl. It's her blessing to please the Sea Goddess."
"It's not a boy. You and your wife can have another one later."
Everyone was talking at once, their faces looking grim, and when they saw what they did next, they almost cried out.
As they talked, they put Xiaohua into the prepared coffin and nailed it shut.
