Chapter 118: Rain Prayer and Sacrifice
"Well, since my lady said not to kill it, then I won't kill it! I'll just let it continue to pull the wheelbarrow and put less stuff on it!"
Seeing that Qiao Qiqi was reluctant to kill the little donkey, Pei Shaoling made the final decision.
"How about one of us three follow you into town later?"
Dark Electric suggested.
He looked at the wheelchair in which Pei Shaoling was sitting.
Although, he didn't understand why his host continued to sit in a wheelchair and pretend to be weak when he had already recovered.
However, the owner of this building must have his own intentions, and as his subordinate, I can't say much.
"Then you can go with us!"
Pei Shaoling thought for a moment and said.
Soon, everyone finished eating.
Mrs. Zhou washed the bowl and put it away, then handed the empty water bag to An Dian who was preparing to go with her.
The constable Qin Laoer put the shackles back on those people.
He was worried that some of them would escape after he entered the town.
There are already not enough people for him to complete the task. If there are fewer people, he will have to receive one more beating!
After talking to An Lei and asking him to help take care of things, Qin Laoer walked up to Qiao Qiqi with peace of mind.
Qiao Qiqi didn't prepare anything. They planned to buy a bicycle frame and use it to drag the things back.
"Sister-in-law, I want to eat candy, remember to bring me some candy."
Pei Shuer looked at Qiao Qiqi with hope.
"good!"
Qiao Qiqi's heart softened, and she touched her head and agreed.
"Qiqi, Shaoling, you two better be careful!"
Pei's mother gave worried instructions.
The last incident in Youzhou City still scars her.
"Yeah, we're just going to get some supplies, it'll be fine!"
Qiao Qiqi nodded slightly.
However, what she didn't know was that a rain-praying ceremony was being held in Qingshi Town at this moment.
Little did they know that the small Qingshi Town actually hid a mysterious religion!
The weather at noon is extremely hot.
Qiao Qiqi pushed the wooden wheelchair and walked towards Qingshi Town with An Dian and the official Qin Laoer.
A small river outside Qingshi Town has dried up and become a river channel.
A group of small birds were looking for the corpses of rotten fish and smelly shrimps to fill their stomachs.
On an old banyan tree nearby, a few black birds were chirping.
"Crow? What bad luck!"
The official Qin Laoer took a look at the tree and couldn't help but complain.
Qiao Qiqi suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart.
Is there going to be any accidents in Qingshi Town?
Pei Shaoling frowned as he looked at the purple lightning in the sky. "Let's go. We can't stay here for long. Let's buy everything we need and then leave and continue on our way."
But, after walking a few steps forward.
Qiao Qiqi looked at the bright red flowers blooming on the roadside and her pupils contracted.
The flower bloomed gorgeously, red like human blood!
The strange thing is that the flower has no leaves!
"Strange, the flowers are blooming so beautifully in such dry weather!"
The official Qin Laoer looked at the flower and muttered.
However, after Qiao Qiqi became familiar with medical books, she immediately recognized this flower.
This flower is called the Other Shore, and is also known as Red Lycoris radiata!
According to legend, this flower will only bloom in the underworld!
But legends are just legends.
But now it really appeared in front of Qiao Qiqi.
Qiao Qiqi unconsciously shifted her gaze to the horizon and discovered that there was a hint of blood hidden in the purple lightning!
Is the way of heaven threatening them openly?
Oh!
Qiao Qiqi squinted her eyes and looked at the lightning, and suddenly a trace of anger arose in her heart.
Break the way of heaven!
You want me to die, but I won't let you do that!
I want to live a good life!
An Dian and the official Qin Laoeryuan, who were standing by, felt the powerful aura emanating from Qiao Qiqi and looked at each other in surprise.
Pei Shaoling's lips curled up slightly, and his eyes were full of smiles.
"Let's go!"
At this moment, perhaps because of her change in mood, Qiao Qiqi found that her internal strength had reached a higher level.
Feeling relaxed all over, she pushed Pei Shaoling towards the town.
An Dian and the official Qin Lao Er looked at each other blankly again, and followed closely behind.
The town center of Qingshi Town.
On a high platform, a group of people wearing red clothes and ghost masks were performing a strange dance.
In the center of the stage, a young girl wearing a layer of red gauze was tied between two pillars.
Her hands and feet were tied up.
At this time, her eyes were blurred, her whole body was red, and she kept twisting her body.
Under the stage nearby, an old man was crying and begging everyone to spare his daughter.
"Great Protector, can you really pray for rain like this?"
The person in charge of the entire Qingshi Town was a Li Zheng named Wu. He looked at the old man who was pulling his clothes and crying and begging with embarrassment and asked the masked protector.
"Sincerely, your wish will come true. Let someone take this old man away and lock him up first!"
He waved his hand, looking at the girl in the veil on the stage with satisfaction, "Since she has been chosen to be God's bride, then this sacrifice must be completed well."
"But……"
Wu Li was looking at the strong men on the stage who were ready and poised to go, "But, will God bring rain like this?"
"Yes! This is a will from Heaven to our Master! Only by allowing that girl to feel the immense amount of Yang energy, and harmonizing Yin and Yang, will Heaven be pleased and then release the nectar to the world!"
The masked guardian looked seriously at the girl on the stage and said softly, "Are the ninety-nine believers I asked you to prepare ready?"
He looked at the half-naked men and said, "Remember, there must be ninety-nine of them, no more, no less!"
Wu Lizheng glanced at the girl on the stage with a reluctant heart, then looked at the strong men who had already lined up on the stage, and sighed softly, "Everything is ready!"
"Well, in that case! This guardian declares the sacrificial ceremony officially begins!"
The great protector shouted loudly towards the stage!
On the stage, people wearing strange costumes and masks continued to perform a strange dance.
Then, they adjusted the girl's posture and made her kneel on the platform.
He also caressed the girl's charming face from time to time, showing her seductive side to the people in the audience.
Then they touched the girl's veil and gently cut it off with a dagger!
The strong men in the audience couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, with a look of impatience on their faces.
The girl had a shy look on her face, and with misty eyes she twisted her proud body, looking like she was ready to be picked.
Then, the Great Protector clapped his hands!
Those dancing masked people surrounded the girl in a circle!
The first strong man slowly walked to the center of the circle!
Following the movement within the circle, the dancing masked people also slowly performed a strange dance.
Through the crowd, you can vaguely see the girl's face full of enjoyment.
