Erya was stunned. She took two steps back. After a while, she pushed Li Wen out like crazy: "Liars! They are all liars! Get out! Get out!!!"
All promises and oaths are false! Did it turn out that in Li Wen's eyes, he had always been just a victim? ! !
Erya knelt on the ground, covered her face and cried bitterly, while Li Wen stood aside and watched indifferently.
After a long time, he knelt down and took Erya into his arms, "I'm sorry, I was too anxious and said something angry just now. Can you forgive me, Erya?"
Hearing this, Erya sobbed and raised his head, and saw a look of pain on Li Wen's face, "Erya, I love you, but I can't help it. If I don't do this, they will force the little one to death." Han’s!”
As he spoke, Li Wen raised his hand and slapped his face. With a "pop" sound, his entire right cheek swelled up.
"It's because I'm useless, because I can't protect you, but Erya, Xiaohan is my biological sister, I can't just watch her die!"
Erya pulled him sadly: "Brother Li Wen, stop fighting!"
It turns out that everyone in the village knows about Erya and Li Wen, but there is no way. If they want to appease the mountain god's anger, someone has to be sacrificed, and Erya is the victim in their eyes.
It's not like they haven't tried other methods, but none of them work. In other words, if they want to fundamentally solve the problem, they can only send the bride to marry the mountain god.
But Erya was too stubborn and refused to say anything, so she could only put off the matter of marrying the mountain god again and again.
As the days passed, Erya still had no intention of letting go. The villagers began to worry. If the matter was not resolved, not to mention the harvest this year, even eating would be a problem.
The villagers began to complain one after another, and some people directly organized a group to go to the village chief's house.
"Village Chief, we can't let this matter continue like this. You have to think of a way!"
"That's right, village chief, please think of a way!!" Others also echoed.
Everyone was talking in a hurry.
"Everyone, be quiet!"
Seeing that the village chief had spoken, everyone became a little quieter.
The village chief said helplessly: "I also know the seriousness of this matter, but it's not like you don't know. Erya is a very stubborn girl. What can I do if she doesn't want to marry me? You don't want to let your own children marry." .”
There were a total of twenty people who came to make trouble, including several other parents of the chosen bride. They were immediately unhappy when they heard this.
"Village chief, what do you mean by this? My Yuanyuan is still so young. She still has a bright future ahead of her, but she can't marry the mountain god!"
"Yes, village chief, my Tongtong has just been admitted to college. If she marries the mountain god, her life will be ruined!"
Everyone was talking to each other, but in the end no one was willing.
The village chief was also angry: "Then what do you think we should do?"
"Then let Erya get married, even if she doesn't want to get married!"
"That's right, that child Erya usually eats and drinks from us. If it weren't for us, she would have died long ago. Shouldn't she repay us? Now is the time when we all need her, why wouldn't she want to!"
"Yes, someone has to sacrifice, so why can't it be Erya!"
"..."
The village chief was silent. He knew that Erya liked Li Wen. Although he knew it was unkind, he couldn't just sit idly by as the matter concerned the entire village.
"Okay, then I'll think of a solution."
After hearing the affirmative answer, the villagers left with satisfaction.
At night, the village chief found Li Wen and asked him to persuade Erya.
"Li Wen, I know Erya listens to you the most. If you try to persuade her, she will definitely listen!"
Li Wen hesitated for a moment, but finally refused, "I'm sorry, village chief, I can't do this. You can find someone else."
The village chief seemed to have expected that he would refuse, and just smiled: "Li Wen, I remember that your sister is also a candidate bride, right?"
Li Wen was startled and raised his head suddenly: "Village Chief, what do you mean?!"
The village chief smiled and stared at Li Wen with a pair of cloudy eyeballs: "If you don't want your sister to marry the mountain god, you know what to do!"
After speaking, he didn't wait for Li Wen to answer, and left alone, leaving Li Wen alone in a daze.
Li Wen's hands were hanging down and clasped tightly. The village chief was right. His sister Li Han's name was also on the bride's candidate list this time.
He knew that the village chief was threatening him. If Erya didn't marry, the next person to marry the mountain god would be his sister!
This forces him to choose between Erya and his sister. If he chooses one, he must give up the other!
Does Li Wen love Erya very much? In fact, no, in his words, he could only be regarded as a little bit fond of it, so he made his choice without hesitation.
That is to make Erya the bride who is going to marry the mountain god!
After hearing what Li Wen said, Erya looked at him in disbelief: "You mean, the village chief asked you to choose between me and Xiaohan, is that true?"
"Yes." Li Wen covered his face and said in pain.
Erya looked at him disappointedly, "So, you didn't choose me?"
Li Wen hurriedly held her hand and explained: "Erya, you can understand me, right? I am Xiaohan, a younger sister. Xiaohan finally got into college and had the opportunity to go out." Look at the outside world, I can’t destroy her!”
"I am begging you because I have no choice. Erya, can you forgive me?"
Erya saw the pain on her sweetheart's face and couldn't bear it, "What about me?"
When she asked this question, she finally forgave him.
When Li Wen heard that there was something going on, he immediately laughed and said, "Don't worry, Erya, I have already thought of a way."
"You first pretend to agree to marry the mountain god, and I will take you away after the wedding ceremony. Let's leave here and live a new life!" Li Wen said with anticipation.
Erya hesitated, "Is this really okay? If I really marry the mountain god, can I still leave?"
"Yes, why not!" Li Wen held her face and continued: "Erya, they will only let you out if you agree to marry the mountain god first."
"You will be free after marrying the mountain god. Then I can take you away. If you don't agree, they will keep you here forever. In this way, even if I want to take you away, I can't. !”
"Are you right?" Li Wen looked at her with love in his eyes, as if he was really thinking about her.
"Yes." Erya nodded, as if this was indeed the truth, but she was still worried: "But you just said..."
Li Wen smiled, touched her head and comforted her: "Silly girl, what I just said was angry. How could I abandon you?"
Erya raised her head and looked at him very aggrievedly: "Really?"
Li Wen took her hand and put it on his heart, promising: "It's true."
