Chapter 196 The Fire Will Not Go Out 1



Meng Changjin was also helpless.

She just wanted to find an excuse to avoid Luo Linlin and leave this mission world.

As for where Tian Xiaoyuan or others may want to go in the future, they will have to decide for themselves.

As a result, Luo Linlin insisted on giving it, so Meng Changjin could only pretend to do it.

When the ticket checking started, Luo Linlin waved wildly behind her.

Meng Changjin also waved at her and then passed the ticket check.

After he could no longer see Luo Linlin, Meng Changjin chose to leave this mission world.

And at the moment Meng Changjin left the mission world, the long-haired beauty who was pushing the suitcase stopped raising her foot in the air, the person who was on the phone stopped talking, and the train that was about to enter the station stopped running on the track. Everything seemed to be paused.

After leaving this mission world, Meng Changjin found himself back in the body where he could only lie down and take medicine.

"Student Xiaosi, you can't do this." Meng Changjin couldn't move her body, but she could still communicate with Xiaosi using her spiritual sense.

Student Xiao Si didn't say anything and just let Meng Changjin say whatever he wanted.

"How long will it take this time?" Meng Changjin felt a little bored when he saw that Xiao Si didn't say a word.

Seeing that there were only one or two tasks left, Meng Changjin naturally wanted to start the task immediately and complete it quickly so that she could be resurrected, right? Although it was interesting to travel through different worlds and experience different lives, it felt like wandering or going to a dungeon. No matter how exciting the dungeon was, you still had to return to your own world in the end.

"One day." Xiao Si waved his tail, quite affirmatively.

Xiao Si gave an affirmative answer, and Meng Changjin said nothing more and fell silent.

But the silence didn't last long, Meng Changjin couldn't help but speak again.

"Classmate Xiaosi, do you think we should go our separate ways after the mission is completed?" Meng Changjin asked, feeling a little reluctant.

Although Xiao Si often acts like a mute, except when he enters and leaves the mission world, he is extremely silent and seldom speaks.

But Meng Changjin knew that Xiao Si was there and would appear as long as she called him.

From the beginning of the mission to now, they have been together for hundreds of years, and Meng Changjin is really reluctant to let go.

After hearing Meng Changjin's question, Xiao Si was silent for two seconds, as if he was thinking about how to answer her.

"You'll know when the time comes." After two seconds of silence, Xiao Si gave this answer.

"What do you mean?" Meng Changjin was a little confused. Is there anything that cannot be said?

If they want to go their separate ways, then they can go their separate ways. It's not something that can't be said in advance, right?! She's not the kind of person who can't accept this arrangement!

Besides, from the beginning, we were just trying to get what we wanted, so why is it such a mystery now?

Meng Changjin didn't ask any more questions. Since they said we would know when the time comes, let's just wait and see.

During this day, Meng Changjin was given medicine three times.

Chinese medicine is so bitter that it can turn a person's face green. Meng Changjin was forced to take this stuff three times.

At this time, Meng Changjin began to regret.

She shouldn't have left the world so quickly. Wouldn't it be better to wait until Xiao Si selected the next client and then directly enter the mission world? As a result, she didn't think of it for a while, and it was too late to regret it now.

However, apart from the regret he felt when he was drugged, Meng Changjin did not do nothing at other times.

The range of her spiritual awareness is now even wider, and can already cover the entire yard.

During this day, Meng Changjin managed to find out some information.

For example, why her soul died immediately after being sucked into this body.

Generally speaking, there has not been a drop of rain in this village this year, and the crops are all dying from the sun.

This kind of thing happens every now and then, and everyone is used to it.

But this time, a monk came to the village. The monk said that the reason why it had not rained in their village was because the river god was busy getting married and had no time to care about the rain.

As soon as this statement came out, these ignorant villagers believed it.

But the river god wanted to marry, and there was nothing they could do.

They had no choice, but the monk suggested that as long as everyone chose a girl to sacrifice to the river god, wouldn't the river god have a wife? If the river god had a wife, he would naturally have time to take care of the rain.

When this proposal was put forward, some people were attracted, some disagreed, and some strongly opposed it.

The ones who were tempted were naturally those who didn't have girls at home. It wasn't their turn to offer sacrifices anyway. If offering a girl from another family could bring good weather and good harvests, then why wouldn't they agree? The ones who were firmly opposed were naturally those who had daughters at home.

The parents of this body are the ones who are against it.

Meng Changjin didn't understand what happened next, mainly because he didn't hear anyone talk about the process in between. Anyway, the final result was that the monk said that the girl in this body had the best horoscope with the river god. As long as she was sacrificed to the river god, it would be guaranteed that the village would have good weather and good harvests in the next ten years! If a bad thing happens to a group of people, and this group of people can prevent this bad thing from happening as long as they work together, then this group of people will definitely work together.

But if someone says that this bad thing will only happen to one person, and not only that, good things will happen to others, then this group of people will 100% let this one person sacrifice.

Naturally, the parents and relatives of this body are unwilling to do so. What does it have to do with them if it's related to the river god or something?

It's impossible to sacrifice their girl!

They simply don't agree.

Even though everyone offered some very tempting conditions, this family simply ignored them.

There are many people who sell their children in this era, but this family is not one of them.

Since they refused, the other people in the village had no choice but to give up.

Of course, the so-called giving up is also pretended.

They pretended to give up and paralyzed the family. The family was relieved to see that the villagers had really given up.

Unexpectedly, just after the family let down their guard, the villagers poisoned them. The whole family was knocked unconscious, and when they woke up, their girl had been tied to a bamboo raft and sunk into the river.

After being fished out, the person was still breathing, but had not yet woken up.

I asked a doctor to take a look, and he said that he was suffering from soul-leaving syndrome.

This kind of disease can only be treated with tonic medicine. Whether the patient can wake up depends on fate.

The villagers' actions completely angered the family.

But before the family could do anything, it started raining.

Now, the villagers all felt that the sacrifice had worked and the river god had really appeared.

As for the family questioning the villagers, the villagers spoke to them kindly, and even prepared to give them some gifts, because it rained after sacrificing one of their daughters.

Of course, this family doesn't care about these things. They only want their girl. Who wants these broken things? Unfortunately, the whole village is like this. The family's fields are all here. Now they have to feed tonic medicine to the girl with soul-leaving syndrome every day. It is impossible to leave this village in a fit of anger.

I had no choice but to stay here feeling frustrated.

On that day, under the coverage of Meng Changjin's spiritual sense, many people came to deliver gifts.

These people spoke very nicely, thanking the family for sacrificing their daughter to the river god, which in return made it rain.

Needless to say, the result was that he was chased out by the mother of this body with a hoe.

Meng Changjin sighed in his heart, this family is really good, their character and personality are first-class.

Unfortunately, according to Xiao Si, their real daughter will never come back, and this body will be her body after she is resurrected.

"Student Xiaosi, is it true that the soul of this girl can never be found again?" Meng Changjin asked again.

Although Xiao Si had said it from the beginning, Meng Changjin still asked again.

"Yes, it can't be found." Xiao Si still gave an affirmative answer this time.

"Oh!" Meng Changjin sighed again.

"It's true that it can't be found. Besides, if you find it, you will lose this body. Then, even if you complete the task, you won't be able to be resurrected." Xiao Si said seriously.

"Oh, what's the big deal?" Meng Changjin didn't care at all.

If her soul had not been sucked into this body and a series of events had not happened afterwards, she would not have thought of resurrecting or anything.

It seems that being a wandering ghost is not bad. I watch what happens in the human world as a drama every day. Apart from being a bit boring, there is nothing wrong with it.

As for now, she doesn't care even more. At worst, she can just be a ghost cultivator.

The reason Meng Changjin became a wandering ghost before was because she didn’t have the skills to cultivate as a ghost. But now she has it. When she cultivates as a ghost and reaches a certain high level, she can also create a body for herself.

"It's really impossible to find it back. Otherwise, if you are willing to be a wandering ghost, it won't be a loss to me." Xiao Si saw that Meng Changjin didn't care about his body at all, so he spoke.

Seeing that he really couldn't find the body back and was not making excuses to leave it to her, Meng Changjin kept silent.

If she could find it back, she wouldn't mind, but if she couldn't, then there was nothing she could do.

Meng Changjin remained silent, and Xiao Si naturally did not speak either.

It is true that it cannot be found. Xiao Si definitely did not lie. However, it is not what Meng Changjin thought, that it has dissipated or something else, but it has merged.

Moreover, it has merged with Meng Changjin's soul, so it is really impossible to find it out alone.

Unless Meng Changjin cuts that part out.

But Meng Changjin herself didn't even know that there was such a soul in her body, let alone cutting it off.

Even if we take a step back, it is originally one body, so there is no need to cut it or anything like that, right? Xiao Si thought about this for a while, but in the end he did not tell Meng Changjin directly.

There's no need. Meng Changjin will know it herself later. Xiao Si feels there's no need to tell her now.

The main thing is that if I tell her now, there will be too much to explain.

Knowing too much now is not a good thing for Meng Changjin.

Of course, the most important thing is that Xiao Si is too lazy to explain.

Explaining is tiring, especially to someone who knows nothing.

When everything has been accomplished, you will just need to explain it casually, there is no need to go through so much trouble.

Thinking of this, Xiao Si suddenly became as quiet as a chicken and became the dumb Xiao Si again.

The silence didn't last long, Xiao Si spoke again.

This time it's serious business.

The next client has been selected.

Upon hearing that the next client had finally been selected, Meng Changjin was almost crying with joy.

Finally, they were selected. Although Xiao Si had said before that it would only take one day, Meng Changjin waited and waited, and the day was almost over, and Xiao Si still hadn't said anything about this. Meng Changjin almost thought that Xiao Si had made a wrong estimate this time, but he didn't expect that at the last moment, they were finally selected.

"Hurry up, let's see what the client's long-cherished wish is!" Meng Changjin was very active, so hurry up! Xiao Si didn't say anything, but golden words appeared in front of Meng Changjin's eyes.

This time the long-cherished wish is very short, just eight words - as long as the fire is not extinguished, the tribe will not perish!

Meng Changjin raised his eyebrows. Fire? Tribe? Meng Changjin suddenly had a general idea.

After Xiao Si transmitted the client's memory to her, Meng Changjin confirmed her previous thoughts.

The client this time is named Man Qing, and he lives in a primitive tribe.

The tribe is composed of a shaman, a chief, two deputy chiefs, four captains, twelve team leaders, and other ordinary tribal residents.

The client this time, Man Qing, is in a tribe called Yan Tribe.

There are less than a thousand people in the Yan tribe, and a small half of them are elderly and children.

Women account for a small half, and the labor force that can actually go out hunting is only a quarter of the total number of people.

The proceeds from hunting for more than 200 people had to feed nearly 1,000 people. You can imagine how difficult it was.

In the primitive world, hunting is not an easy task.

A hunt usually requires a long time of preparation.

Forging stone weapons and choosing hunting spots are not simple tasks.

Going out hunting doesn't always go smoothly. You may be killed by the prey and become the prey of the prey.

If something like this happens, the tribe may not have enough food for the year, and many people will starve to death.

The client this time, Man Qing, is a woman.

At the same time, he is also one of the candidates for the next witch.

The reason why the client's long-cherished wish was "the fire will not be extinguished and the tribe will not be destroyed" was because the Yan tribe was in the middle of a hunting trip and both teams failed to return. There was a serious food shortage and they had to go through a cold winter. The lack of food and the fact that people could easily freeze to death in winter caused a sharp drop in the number of people in the Yan tribe.

This kind of thing happens every few years, so although we are sad for the dead, the living still continue to live.

But at this time, other tribes attacked the Yan tribe.
