After listening to Xiao Shen's words, Bai Wenxia suddenly felt that things were beyond his understanding.

The failure of the ceremony should have happened a year ago, but this child is so big in the blink of an eye, this is definitely not a person!

But it's normal for Bai Wenxia to think about this kind of thing. In the copy of the spaceship he had before, after being parasitized, there was not a blink of an eye, but also a monster that looked similar to him...

Xiao Shen also seemed to find his words incomprehensible, so he took a few steps forward and held Bai Wenxia's hand.

Fragments of some memories immediately poured into Bai Wenxia's mind. These were not only the memories of Xiao Shen's 'mother', but also the memories of many previous sacrifices, but those memories were very broken and could only be See some general pictures.

A long time ago, this place was extremely yin, and it was very desolate and remote. Some supernatural events often occurred, and even travelers passing by would die here inexplicably. Later, it became a place of exile for sinners. Many people from the surrounding villages will drive the sinners here to fend for themselves, and some people who can return home also come here, and over time they have formed a village. It's just that people in this village are not treated well by people from other places.

One day, a "skilled man" came here and immediately realized the special nature of this place, built a mansion here, and hired the villagers to work at a high price. The surrounding villagers thought the good days were coming, but they didn't know that this was the beginning of the nightmare.

I don't know why after the masters came here, the villagers always died inexplicably, and the haunting incidents were frequent. On a certain day, a black fog erupted directly from the mansion, and the affected villagers turned into monsters like zombies. The villagers had never seen such a thing before, of course they were terrified...

After that, the master appeared, indicating that the mountain god was angry, and only by offering a woman of the right age to become the bride of the mountain god could alleviate the current situation.

When Bai Wenxia saw this, he felt that this so-called expert was responsible for all this shit.

After the sacrificial ceremony, everything really calmed down. But every 20 years after that, another ceremony needs to be held, otherwise the mountain god will be angry again.

It's not that the villagers didn't think about leaving, but after they set out with the idea of ​​leaving the village, they would enter the situation of ghosts hitting the wall, and finally had to return to the village.

I don't know how many years have passed, and such tragedies have happened several times, and every time the ceremony is not held, the strange black fog will break out again... This ceremony has also added many steps over the years. For example, pinch a scarecrow substitute, so that when the black fog breaks out in advance, you can temporarily protect yourself from disasters, but it must be burned before the ceremony begins.

Now this ceremony has become a habit of the people in the village, and the original master has not been seen at all now, as if he is just a legend.

As for what happened to the sacrifice brides, after they were sent to the mansion, their last consciousness was to see a huge black fog, and then they would fall into a coma, not even knowing what they were doing. dead.

The memories of the women of the last ceremony were much clearer. She was already prepared to escape. Although she didn't succeed, she got an amulet from an outsider. Thanks to this amulet, when the ceremony was held, she also relied on her tenacious willpower to open her eyes.

When this memory happened, Bai Wenxia seemed to be substituting himself into that memory.

He opened his eyes, his vision was still blurry, and his body couldn't stand up. He could only vaguely see that he was falling on a magic circle, and there were two figures standing beside him, one of them was the village chief, the other Hidden in the shadows can not see clearly.

'Sure enough, this village chief has a problem. ' Bai Wenxia thought about it, and felt his head turn to the other side, and what he saw was a huge black mist, slowly seeping into his own body from around the corner, making his body more and more. The colder it is, the less you can move.

"How did she wake up? It won't spoil the ritual, will it?"

"It's okay, I'll die soon anyway, it doesn't matter if I wake up or not, I can't use any strength now."

Afterwards, Bai Wenxia felt from a first-person perspective that the person involved clenched the amulet hidden in his clothes. He didn't know where the strength came from, but he just stood up and slammed into the two men.

After that, the picture turned pitch black for a while, and only the voices of the two were heard in a hurry. The sacrifice bride lost consciousness.

...

Bai Wenxia opened his eyes and looked at Xiao Shen in front of him with a somewhat complicated look in his eyes.

"That black fog is my prototype." Xiao Shen shook his head, "The person who held the ceremony seems to want to be born as a human."

Bai asked Xia: "So, the ceremony is considered a success?" If he said that, the actual age of Xiao Shen in front of him is only one year old...

"At that time, the ceremony failed, but it also succeeded in part, so I appeared." Xiao Shen said: "It's just that I'm not a complete individual, just a failure. Use your mother's appearance... and you can only listen to the people behind it, let alone leave the village too far, otherwise it will dissipate directly."

"So you approached the people to lure us to this village?" Bai Wenxia said. If he thought about it this way, the person who held the ceremony should be the villain boss of this dungeon, the master who appeared before. , who can live for so many years is probably no longer a human being, who knows what kind of monster it is.

This expert is probably engaged in some kind of conspiracy in this village. According to the standard plot, it is estimated that he wants those brides to give birth to monsters such as ghost kings.

However, the result that he would die suddenly if he became a sacrifice has not changed. Bai Wenxia was unwilling to give up his plan.

"Yes." Xiao Shen nodded, "I happened to find your camp at that time. I secretly guided you... let you kill that companion."

"Why do such a thing?" Bai Wenxia originally thought that this was just an ordinary background setting, but it was still related to the main story.

"Because as long as you kill people, you can't leave this village. When you leave the village, you will be chased and killed by the ghosts immediately." Xiao Shen said: "This is also because that person is trying to prevent you from leaving."

"So it is." Bai Wenxia nodded and asked, "Then why do you want to help me?" This was what confused him the most.

"Because...Sister Xia, you are so kind to me." When Xiao Shen said this, there was a hint of shyness on his face, "No one has ever been so kind to me, and you are so kind and beautiful. I don't want you to have an accident, as long as we hide here until the ceremony is over, when we get free, we can leave together."

Bai asked Xia: "..." Are your filters too deep! Where did the kind and beautiful characters come from!

However, he didn't think that the kind of happy ending that Xiao Shen said could be achieved. It was probably just a perfunctory word from this dungeon boss.

"Although Miss Xia, you have always wanted to be the bride of this ceremony, but after knowing the truth, you will definitely not be willing!" Xiao Shen looked over with shining eyes.

"Five Dynasties Rivers, Mountains, Wind and Moon"

"No, you're thinking too much." Bai Wenxia was unhappy when he heard this, and immediately turned around and tried to go back the same way, and said, "You still have to go out, no one can stop you."

But as soon as he turned around, he noticed that the road he had come from had disappeared. As for the exit on the other side, when Bai Wenxia rushed to the front, only to find that the road leading up the stairs for a certain distance was also blocked.

"It's too late, you know that Miss Xia, you won't give up casually! When you enter this cave, you can't leave at will." Xiao Shen showed a smug smile and said, "Unless it is to destroy this cave. Otherwise, you can only be trapped here and wait for someone to open the entrance from the outside after the ceremony is over."

After all, this place seems to be specially created by the dungeon boss to suppress the resentment of these sacrificial brides, otherwise the dungeon boss would have been killed by the poor ghosts who killed him in revenge.

Only then did Bai Wenxia realize that he was being tricked, and was a little panicked, and immediately explained his true gender, "Wait, I haven't told you all this time, but I'm actually a man! It's not your gentle and beautiful little sister Xia. ‌There will be nothing wrong with going to this ceremony."

"Does it matter?" Xiao Shen tilted his head and patted his flat chest, "Actually, according to human terms... my gender is also male. Although I use my mother's appearance, my body is indeed man."

Bai Wenxia fell into silence: "..."

After a long time, only others Ge Jiaqing is a real female anchor, right?

At this time, in the village.

Regarding the inexplicable disappearance of Bai Wenxia and others, the village chief was a little furious. He didn't expect that ducks with mouths could fly. But now the bride is about to be sent to the ceremony, and it's too late to look for it... What's more, who knows if Bai Wenxia died in this village. If he knew, he would violate the rules explained by the black-robed man. Bai Wenxia was arrested.

He immediately looked at Ge Jiaqing, the only female anchor in the group, with a seemingly cordial smile, "It seems that now I can only let you be the bride."

Ge Jiaqing didn't want to, he looked at it coldly, and said, "‌I have never agreed to such a thing."

"You can't refuse now." The village chief explained to several women in the village, "Tie her up and send her to the mansion in the evening. As for the others, they will be locked up until the ceremony is held. Release it that day."

The anchors were a little surprised, but they didn't expect this selection of sacrifices to start on the third day. Concerned that there are so many villagers around, they did not blatantly resist, they honestly chose to be tied up, and prepared to wait for an opportunity to run away later.
