Due to the appearance of the human centipede, the sacrifice to the sea god was brought forward and scheduled for when the sun rises in the east.
After a night of tossing and turning, Island Director Sun rubbed his brows tiredly, sat down and let out a long sigh.
After seeing off the distant relatives and neighbors who came to express their condolences again, Sun Erniu wiped his face, and the tears that were streaming down his face disappeared in an instant. The false tears in the corners of his eyes were wiped away by him mercilessly.
"Damn it, they are a bunch of idiots who let others lead them by the nose. I am almost unable to pretend."
Sun Erniu spat and cursed under his breath.
"That's enough," Island Chief Sun waved his hand with an inexplicable look on his face. "After the sacrifice is completed, we are all on the same page. Think about how to control that woman and make her eat more."
With trembling hands, he pressed the lighter. The faint light illuminated the man's sinister face, and the tobacco between his rough fingers emitted a choking smell.
Sun Erniu chuckled and played with the bone whistle between his fingers: "Lord Poseidon needs countless sacrifices to keep them alive forever. The modified bodies can withstand it."
That night, almost no one could close their eyes peacefully.
Yuan Shuo, who had closed his eyes to rest, suddenly opened them. His eyes were clear, without the slightest hint of sleepiness or fatigue.
...
...
Her sharp eyes were like those of an eagle, shooting straight into the depths of the dense foggy forest, and her light pink lips were slightly raised.
After half a minute, a dark shadow slowly approached in the fog. There seemed to be a platform in the middle, which swayed up and down as it moved.
The wheels of the car pressed on the damp and smelly lawn, rolled over the muddy puddles and stopped in front of the cabin.
The leading man frowned slightly and called on others to escort the offerings to the sacrificial site.
The people standing by gave him a flattering smile: "Brother Xiao Zhou, the island chief said..."
They rubbed their fingers together as if they wanted to say something but stopped themselves from doing so, and made faces at Xiao Zhou.
Xiao Zhou patted their heads nonchalantly and said, "Alright, you guys are indispensable. Get everyone out quickly. It's time to set off."
At this time, the sky was just turning pale, and there was a big temperature difference between day and night on the island. I don’t know if it was because of the cold heart or body, but the player shivered as soon as he went out.
They were determined to die, and all the people they sent were wearing heavy old-fashioned armor, holding spears and swords, and looking at them coldly.
Being roughly pulled aside, Liu Jiaojiao pouted in dissatisfaction and wrinkled her face as she let them put handcuffs and chains on her.
The greasy fingers were covered with old scars and thick calluses. The short and ugly short-haired man chuckled and took the opportunity to take advantage of her.
Liu Jiaojiao's pretty face suddenly turned gloomy. Just as she raised her hand to slap the man in the face, she was pushed mercilessly on the back several times.
She staggered a few times and almost fell to the ground, but fortunately Zhang Zicheng was quick-eyed and quick-handed and stepped a few steps away to stand beside her, and caught Liu Jiaojiao in a gentlemanly and distant manner.
"you!"
"What do you mean by you!" Xiao Zhou smiled cruelly, with a smile that was too shallow to reach his eyes. "Don't f*cking look for trouble! Otherwise, you'll be in trouble, you stinky bitch!"
With her hands behind her back tightly clenched the dagger she had taken out of her backpack, Liu Jiaojiao was so angry that the corners of her eyes turned red.
In the blink of an eye, a warm and strong hand suddenly grasped her wrist.
Her back tensed and then relaxed, and there was a reassuring scent at the tip of her nose. Liu Jiaojiao pouted in dissatisfaction and turned to look at Zhang Zicheng's beautiful eyes, which were filled with anger and questioning that had not yet dissipated.
Zhang Zicheng felt really bad. Next time, he would definitely ask the employer about the situation before making a decision before accepting an order.
"Do you want to die?" He glanced at the men who were laughing nonstop, frowned in displeasure, leaned down and whispered in the woman's ear at a distance, "Even if you are really angry, you can't be so reckless. You will kill us."
Liu Jiaojiao naturally knew this, but she had been accustomed to a life of luxury since she was a child. After being suddenly pulled into this so-called infinite flow game, she had seen a lot of disgusting things, but she still could not change her original temperament.
Zhang Zicheng lowered his eyes to look at the young lady's puffy cheeks. As soon as he opened his mouth, he heard her indignant voice: "I will deduct money! And give you a bad review!"
Zhang Zicheng: ...
He couldn't hold his forehead with his hand, so he grinned stiffly and glanced fiercely at the men who were causing trouble for no reason.
When sacrifices are impossible, and the rituals will not go smoothly, he will definitely teach these despicable things a lesson and vent his anger for his reputation and money!
"Alright," Zhang Zicheng took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, suppressing his irritability. "I'll let you vent your anger later, just bear with it for now."
Not all players were willing to be tied up and escorted like criminals. Those who were still thinking about escaping looked around quietly. Just as they took out their props, they caught a glimpse of a huge black shadow hiding in the dark, and their movements froze.
Now, the whole family is on the road together.
They had to go through the dense forest to reach the other side of the cliff.
Players on the road kept making trouble, using all their tricks to delay time and find a chance to escape.
But Xiao Zhou was a ruthless guy. Seeing that they refused to obey, he laughed and swung the whip at his waist and hit them hard.
The torn wounds were itchy and painful, and the man who was thrown aside again whimpered a few times with tears in his eyes.
When they turned around, they saw that Yuan Shuo was not only dressed neatly, but also had a calm expression, which was completely different from them.
The man's sob that was about to burst out of his mouth suddenly got stuck, and he felt really uncomfortable, with a pale face.
The sound of waves lapping against the shore became clearer and clearer, and the smell of the sea in the air became stronger and stronger.
After walking a few hundred steps, the view suddenly opened up.
Several thick logs stood firmly in the sea water, and a bonfire was burning fiercely on a wide platform. Various poultry were placed on the low tables on both sides, and next to the empty porcelain bowls, a sharp dagger was shining coldly.
The orange-red sun looks like a salted duck egg. The boundary between the sky and the sea is dyed bright orange-red. The tiny waves on the sparkling sea are intertwined with the orange light.
The waves one after another hit the rocks, and the howling sea breeze brought with it a biting chill and a deafening roar.
The island chief Sun, dressed in a complicated long robe, put his hands behind his back, looking haggard but trying to cheer himself up, which moved countless villagers.
"Sacrifice," he grinned, his dry lips peeling and cracking, "Begin."
The crowd's shouting gradually died down and they gathered together with serious expressions.
A man slowly walked out from the crowd. Sun Erniu walked up the stairs with red eyes, holding a tray in his hand, on which was a round object wrapped in red cloth.
"bloodletting!"
Xiao Zhou took the order and stepped forward, and the player he tied was forced to follow him forward.
In a corner where no one could see, Zhang Zicheng suddenly raised the corner of his mouth, and the small yellow talisman pinched between his fingers stuck to Xiao Zhou's back at a speed invisible to the naked eye, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
As Xiao Zhou walked up the wooden ladder, he stumbled and fell flat on his face in front of everyone.
"Oh my God! Execute them now! God is sending down punishment!"
There were continuous exclamations from the crowd, with some even raising their hands in anger and shouting for execution.
Raising his hand to cover his bleeding mouth, Xiao Zhou spread out his hands and felt out a few broken white teeth in the bloodstains. He gasped in pain.
Fortunately, the farce did not last too long. The host, Sun Daochang, raised his hand and signaled others to replace Xiao Zhou.
Being forcibly pulled onto the platform, the eleven players turned their backs to the sea and glanced solemnly at the indignant faces of the islanders.
"Brother Yuan, aren't we going to take action yet?"
The chains were a small problem for them. Hao Shuai turned his head slightly and asked the calm man beside him in a low voice.
Yuan Shuo chuckled with an ambiguous meaning, and his fleeting smile dazzled Hao Shuai's eyes: "Your sister Lu will be the hero to save the beauty soon."
Well, she is a hero and he is a beauty.
