"God"
Gong Ziyu woke up in a room.
He remembered following the housekeeper all the way to the main hall. The housekeeper handed him a bowl of tea and sent someone to invite the eldest daughter.
Gong Ziyu looked at the clear tea in the cup, picked it up and sniffed it, but didn't drink it.
The candlelight flickered in the main hall, and the plaque with the words "Zhong Ming Ding Shi" was faintly visible in the middle.
In a trance, Gong Ziyu saw his parents sitting in the main seats, and he stood up in surprise.
The next moment, he heard that familiar voice.
"Ziyu."
He turned around, but felt the world spinning and the floor getting closer and closer until his face was touching it.
The last thing he saw was a robe trimmed in gold. In his dream, indescribable words haunted him like ghosts.
Until I woke up.
Gong Ziyu held her head, feeling very uncomfortable, her body unable to move, and her spiritual power sealed. She got up and walked out, but saw the water on the table and couldn't resist the urge to drink several times.
"There's nothing in that cup of tea, but there's something in this pot of water."
Gong Ziyu raised his head and saw a red dress emerging from the darkness.
He is a corpse master.
He had seen corpses in all kinds of miserable states and was no longer afraid.
But the person in front of him frightened him so much that he dropped the teacup.
"Ah... Sister." Gong Ziyu couldn't believe it. "Impossible, I clearly killed you..."
"That's right." A hand covered in corpse spots pushed aside the curtain, revealing the upper body and a lifeless face. Even though it was rotten, the cinnabar mole at the corner of the eye was as bright red as before.
Very weird.
"I died five years ago. My life is borrowed from the 'God'." Gong Zixue smiled, and the skin on her face fell off. "The 'God' asked me to wait for you to come back and complete the sacrifice five years ago."
"Impossible!" Gong Ziyu roared, "For this so-called sacrifice, my mother is already dead!"
Gong Zixue's eyes turned cold. "Who do you think she died because of? Wasn't it because of you? Because you refused to feed the gods, she had no choice but to offer herself to the 'God', but the 'God' didn't want her at all. So she died, the 'God' was furious, and the entire Gong family was implicated. So many people died because of you."
Gong Ziyu closed her eyes in pain.
"No...it's not."
He suddenly thought of something.
What time is it now? He remembered that when he was about to arrive at the Gong family, it was already late...?
Suddenly, Gong Ziyu felt a chill clinging to his skin.
He opened his eyes and met Gong Zixue's eyes covered with a white film.
"When the moon is full, offer sacrifices to the 'God'."
Gong Ziyu pushed her away with force!
He turned and tried to escape, but for some reason the door in front of him was always far away from him.
Gong Ziyu realized something terrifying.
He fell into hallucination again.
Is today the fourteenth or the fifteenth?
Or maybe neither?
Why is he controlled by hallucinations?
"You can't escape, you can't escape..." Gong Zixue's words were in her ears.
It was as if she was always next to his ear.
Gong Ziyu bit his lip and blood flowed into his mouth. The taste of rust made him sober up a little.
Suddenly, he thought of the hallucinations in the charity cemetery that haunted him like a water ghost, as if they were going to drag him into the hell of endless suffering and damn him forever.
And what did he do at that time?
He tore them all down.
One by one, they were all demolished.
Junior sister was right, he should enjoy the feeling of fighting against everything.
There is no use running away.
He turned suddenly.
Gong Zixue didn't expect that he would turn around, and was stunned.
It was during this moment of shock that he reached out and grabbed Gong Zixue's neck.
"Sister, I killed you once, I don't mind killing you again."
As he said this, he broke Gong Zixue's neck.
The illusion disappeared.
Gong Ziyu stared blankly at the head that fell to the ground and released the neck in his palm.
"Gong Zixue" fell to the ground all of a sudden, and her body quickly rotted into mud.
Gong Ziyu took two steps back and bumped into the door.
He leaned against the door, slowly slid down and sat on the ground.
After a long while, he laughed out loud.
He did it.
He was no longer afraid of his elder sister.
At this moment, the door behind him suddenly opened, and Gong Ziyu looked at the person who came in vigilantly.
Not from the Gong family.
It was a young man he had never seen before, wearing the Taoist robes of the Canghai Sect. The word "stupid" was written in his eyes, which were as big as deer eyes. "Elder Xue, there is someone in the room."
A woman came out from behind him.
Gong Ziyu didn't recognize her.
Her gaze first fell on the rotting corpse on the ground, and then on Gong Ziyu's face. "This must be the second son of the Gong family who has been missing for five years, right?"
"Who are you?"
"Elder of the Canghai Sect, Xue Baifeng." The woman said calmly, "We were invited by Gong Zixue, the eldest daughter of the Gong family branch, to come and congratulate the celebration and observe the ceremony."
"Celebration..." Gong Ziyu just thought it was funny.
It's not a celebration at all, it's clearly a sacrifice that represents self-destruction.
"I haven't seen you." Gong Ziyu looked into Xue Baifeng's eyes.
"I have exchanged letters with your sister for many years, and I have seen your portrait." Xue Baifeng briefly mentioned it, "Why is there no one from the Gong family?"
The journey from Canghai Sect to Sixhen County, Xizhou is very long.
They had already made arrangements with the Gong family and set up a teleportation array in the yard.
But when I teleported here, I couldn't see anyone.
The huge Gong family was empty.
Xiao Yichen: "...I heard some noise over here, so I came over to take a look."
At this time, several Canghai Sect disciples hurried over, "Elder, this is bad, we can't get out!"
Xue Baifeng frowned and looked at the sky covered in deep purple.
Disciple: "We've been looking for the gate for a long time. We can clearly see it, but we can't reach it."
Gong Ziyu said, "Because the celebration has already begun."
He looked up at the group and said, "Aren't you here to watch the ceremony? Then come along."
He came back just to put an end to what happened five years ago.
It would be great if more people could witness the fall of the Gong family.
·
The fat woman took Ruan Zhaozhao and Yu Xiaoye out of the main house.
In front of me is a bigger and wider room.
It was as if there was another "Gong Family" nested within the Gong Family.
The fat woman pulled them through a small door and into a black corridor.
As soon as they entered, Ruan Zhaozhao and Yu Xiaoye both smelled a rotten smell.
At the end, the fat woman threw them both into a cage.
"Be good, the moon will come up soon." The fat woman only said this one sentence, and the rest of her words were just a bunch of nagging words.
For some reason, Yu Xiaoye felt a headache after listening to this.
Suddenly he felt a little warmth on his ears. It was Ruan Zhaozhao covering his ears.
Yu Xiaoye realized that what the fat woman said would give people a headache, "Zhao Zhao, don't you have a headache?"
Ruan Zhaozhao shook his head, "No."
Isn’t this what those shamans like to chant?
This fat woman's speech is not standard at all. She will not attract any gods by dancing like this.
After the fat woman finished reading, her originally plump body suddenly deflated like a balloon that was punctured.
She staggered away.
Ruan Zhaozhao looked around.
There were many such cages next to them, and each one contained two children, a boy and a girl.
Yu Xiaoye looked down and said, "Zhao Zhao, there's something down there."
Ruan Zhaozhao leaned over and saw a deep pit under the cage, filled with black water.
There were a few lines of words on the black water that only she could see.
Goat's body
Owner: "Shangshen" of the Gong family
Effect: After devouring the limbs of the sacrifice (Gong Ziyu), the progress of "Advent" ("Causal Killing Value") will be increased by 15
Ruan Zhaozhao: "System, can you make a replica to replace this thing like before?"
System: "Host, this is not an independent item and cannot be copied."
It’s getting more difficult, very interesting.
Ruan Zhaozhao thought for a moment, "Why did he devour the limbs instead of the entire Second Brother?"
System: "Maybe it's just like the rebirth of the old demon Tianji, but we don't know the key."
Ruan Zhaozhao pulled the railing open.
She called Yu Xiaoye out, "Brother Xiaoye, let's go and rescue the others."
Ruan Zhaozhao jumped out of the cage and tore open another cage.
Two children about their age were huddled in a corner.
Yu Xiaoye comforted him, "Don't be afraid, we were also captured. My name is Yu Xiaoye, and this is my sister Zhaozhao."
Ruan Zhaozhao walked to the next cage and opened all eight cages in no time.
Fourteen children stood there, seven boys and seven girls.
"Zhao Zhao, they are all from Sixhen County. They said they were sent here by their families. There's no sunlight here, and they don't know how long they've been imprisoned. But the Gong family gives them food every day."
Ruan Zhaozhao: "Is this the kind of 'cake' we eat?"
Yu Xiaoye nodded: "Yes."
At this moment, Ruan Zhaozhao suddenly noticed a white arrow appeared on the ground, "Brother Xiaoye, what is this?"
Yu Xiaoye followed her gaze and said, "There's nothing."
Only she could see it, "System, you did this?"
System: "Host, after you completed the previous mission, the system unlocked some minor permissions. This arrow points to the props for this mission."
Ruan Zhaozhao asked Yu Xiaoye to stay and watch over the others while looking for a way out.
I followed the arrow and came to a door.
Behind the door was another big pit, and the bottom of the pit was also soaked with black water, which looked much smaller than the "goat's body".
Goat's Stomach
Owner: "Shangshen" of the Gong family
Effect: After devouring the body of the sacrifice (Gong Ziyu), the progress of "Advent" ("Cause and Effect Killing Value") will be increased by 15
Ruan Zhaozhao remembered that the last time he saw Gong Ziyu, his "Cause and Effect Killing Value" was around 60.
Ruan Zhaozhao followed the arrow into the last room. There was still a deep pit with a pool of black water lying quietly at the bottom of the pit.
Goat Brain
Owner: "Shangshen" of the Gong family
Effect: After devouring the head of the sacrifice (Gong Ziyu), the progress of "Advent" ("Cause and Effect Killing Value") will be increased by 10
Here the arrow disappears.
Ruan Zhaozhao returned to the original place and saw Yu Xiaoye taking out a lot of snacks from his bag and eating with a group of children.
Yu Xiaoye told Ruan Zhaozhao the current situation.
He couldn't find the door, it seemed to be opened from the outside.
Secondly, these children all came from poor families, with several brothers and sisters, and the oldest had eight. They were the weakest in the family, and their parents could not afford to raise them, so they took a large sum of money from the Gong family and sold them.
"The fat woman brought them cakes every day. One child said that the fat woman said these were the 'flesh and blood of God' and were gifts from 'God'."
Yu Xiaoye was so disgusted by what she said. "She also said that when the 'God' descends upon the Gong family, they will go into the 'God's' stomach and become his nourishment."
At this time, one of the children bent over and began to vomit.
They are all food scraps.
A girl nearby pointed at the vomit and screamed, "Look, what's in there?"
When everyone came over, they found many "legs" wriggling in the vomit.
Everyone was so scared that they hid aside.
"Are our stomachs filled with this stuff?" The children shivered.
"The stomach of the 'God'..."
Ruan Zhaozhao seemed to be thinking about something, then turned and walked towards the second room.
She stood by and jumped in without saying a word.
——It actually fell directly onto the black water.
At this time, Ruan Zhaozhao heard the sound of vomiting coming from the first room.
She started jumping up and down!
On Yu Xiaoye's side, he suddenly saw everyone holding their stomachs and vomiting one after another.
He quickly ran to the second room and was surprised to see Ruan Zhaozhao "pop" out of the pit.
He knew it must be Zhao Zhao's credit!
Yu Xiaoye said happily: "Zhao Zhao, they spit out all the 'cakes'! You continue, I'll go help everyone!"
A head popped out of the pit and made an "OK" gesture.
Ruan Zhaozhao was jumping around on the goat's stomach when he suddenly heard the system say, "Host, the item's status has changed."
Ruan Zhaozhao fell down hard and suddenly saw black water surging out from not far away.
There are three more words after "goat's stomach": "gastric bleeding".
"Stop kicking... please..."
A faint voice was heard.
As the black water flowed out, a pair of sheep horns popped out.
It's a little sheep with a black face.
It lay pitifully on the black water and said weakly, "Stop kicking me... I can't stand it anymore..."
