In panic, Shi Wu finally moved his hands away from his eyes.
The scene before her startled her.
Snakes darted past and crawled towards the altar, greedily eating the blood on the ground.
The man tied to the pillar was dying, his hands were cut and blood was dripping down his fingers.
The snakes were feeding on his blood.
After a few minutes, the old priest shook the bell in his hand, and all the snakes left in an instant.
At the old priest's command, the man also looked up.
At this moment, Shi Wu fainted.
When she woke up, it was three days later.
She had a high fever and was in a coma for three days.
When she woke up, she looked around weakly.
"Ah Xuan, where are you?" Shi Wu shouted in horror.
Yaxuan, who was cooking medicine downstairs, heard her voice and hurried upstairs, hugging her tightly in his arms.
"I'm sorry, honey."
"It's all my fault. I shouldn't have brought you to the sacrificial ceremony."
"I was inconsiderate and scared you."
Yaxuan is very upset now. When he was considering whether to take Shiwu with him, he asked his grandfather for his opinion.
Grandpa said that since she wants to marry you, she should know about the Miao area, so you might as well take her to see it.
Yaxuan thought it made sense, so he took Shiwu with him.
But she didn't expect that she would be frightened to death.
"Is that man dead?" Shi Wu grabbed Yaxuan's hand and asked worriedly.
"No."
Yaxuan shook his head and explained, "The sacrificial ceremony requires people to be sacrificed, but not their lives, just some blood."
"That person volunteered."
Shi Wu looked at him with some confusion, his eyes full of doubts.
"He was a tourist here. I found out he owed a lot of money and was trying to avoid debt, so I made a deal with him."
"He has already left the village with the money and signed a confidentiality agreement regarding what happened here."
"I see."
Shi Wu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Then she remembered something and held Ya Xuan's hand tightly and asked, "What about those snakes?"
"They are poisonous snakes. They are the guards of the forbidden area."
At this time, Shi Wu noticed that in addition to the Nine-Gu Silver Bell, there was another pair of bells around Yaxuan's waist.
It seemed to be the pair of bells that the old priest held in his hand that day.
Yaxuan followed her gaze and explained, "Old priest, your time is running out."
"He passed the bell to me, and from now on... I will be the priest."
As he spoke, Yaxuan hugged her even tighter with his hands, stroking her arms back and forth with his palms, very afraid of losing her.
"So, Xiao Wu, I really can't leave Miaojiang. I will take root here for the rest of my life..."
"If you regret it, it's not too late now."
When he said this, his heart trembled.
Although he really didn't want to lose her, he had no choice and couldn't force her.
"I don't regret it. I will stay here with you forever."
Shi Wu raised his head and kissed his chin, then moved up and kissed his slightly trembling lips, as if to comfort him.
"Why?" Yaxuan lowered his eyebrows, tears welling up in his eyes.
"Because I love you." Shi Wu held his cheeks with both hands and kissed his lips, nose, eyes and every part of his face one by one.
The tears that the man had been holding back in his eyes finally couldn't be held back and they fell drop by drop.
"Wife, I'll go get you some medicine." Yaxuan didn't want her to see him crying, so he quickly wiped the tears from his face, pushed her away, and turned to go downstairs.
Shi Wu also went downstairs after washing up.
While they were eating, someone delivered their wedding dresses.
The bright red embroidered Miao costume, as well as the headdress and necklace made of Miao silver, are very grand.
Shi Wu quickly finished the rice in the bowl and couldn't wait to try it on.
Yaxuan was waiting outside the door. As she opened the door, the silver ornaments on her head swayed and made a crisp sound.
He was simply stunned.
goddess.
She must be a goddess!
How can it be so beautiful...
"It fits me perfectly, Xuan. It seems you didn't even ask for my size. When did you make it?"
Shi Wu asked curiously, gently fiddling with the silver jewelry on her head.
She really loves the crisp sound of silver jewelry colliding, which is particularly healing.
"Do I need to ask? I've touched every inch of your skin..."
Especially her slender waist that can be held in one hand, his palm has already become very familiar with it.
As he spoke, he couldn't help but put his hand around her waist.
As their bodies got closer, their breathing quickened.
"Wife, you are so beautiful..."
Yaxuan spoke in a low voice, pressing his body down on her onto the bed, and using his other hand to catch the headdress that fell backwards.
Along with the crisp sound of silver jewelry colliding, his kisses fell on her neck like a storm, and he used his teeth to unbutton her dress one by one.
