Chapter 14: Sacrifice to the Gods
The giant eye's gaze did not stay too long in the dark corner. After a few breaths, the black mist rolled and the giant eye disappeared into the black mist again.
"it's over?"
After the giant eye disappeared, Yue Ran no longer had the fear and panic he had just felt. So after seeing the giant eye disappear, Yue Ran began to twist his bound hands and feet, trying to see if he could break free.
It's just that the rope that restrained Yue Ran didn't know what kind of buttons it had. No matter how Yue Ran broke free, the rope never showed any signs of loosening.
After trying it a few times, Yue Ran completely gave up on the idea of breaking free from the constraints.
At the same time, Yue Ran looked at Zhang Xin, who was kneeling on the ground, and called out his name again.
"Zhang Xin, wake up."
Zhang Xin, who was kneeling in front of the window, didn't seem to hear Yue Ran's call. She just prayed there and squirmed from time to time, like a puppet being controlled.
The cold wind blew over Yue Ran who was hanging upside down, causing his whole body to tremble, and then his eyes looked into the shadow not far away.
The pupils of his eyes shrank, and everything in the shadow suddenly became clear. There were clearly two people there.
"The gods are coming soon, and you are all sacrifices."
A woman's voice came from the shadows. The appearance of the voice even made Yue Ran feel like he was still in a dream.
The voice fell, and the woman slowly walked out of the shadows.
The woman clearly looked like Chen Zhen's girlfriend, Sun Yiran, but at this moment, Sun Yiran looked completely different in Yue Ran's eyes.
It was a monster, vaguely human-like, with black mist exuding all over her body, and a huge eye on her face without facial features. That look was similar to the monster-like Teacher Zhao Yue Ran had seen before. They are somewhat similar, except that Teacher Zhao's monster-like eye is a single vertical eye, while Sun Yiran's is horizontal.
"Monster, another monster," Yue Ran thought of the monsters exuding endless despair in his dream yesterday, "Maybe it can also be called weird."
In fact, after accidentally seeing the monster-looking Teacher Zhao in class, Yue Ran guessed that there was more than one monster around him, so when he saw the photo sent by his aunt Li Yarou, his first reaction was Yes, someone was manipulated by the monster, but Yue Ran didn't know whether the person being manipulated was Chen Zhen or Sun Yiran.
Of course, Yue Ran is now sure that it was Chen Zhen who was manipulated, because Sun Yiran directly turned into a monster!
"When I first arrived in the study room of the library, I didn't see my aunt, so she most likely left the library. Where did the money go?"
Yue Ran finally thought of Li Yarou and Qian Fei. After all, in the situation just now, his brain had no free space to think about other things.
After Sun Yiran came out of the shadows, Chen Zhen's figure also appeared.
The dull look and empty eyes made Yue Ran confirm his suspicion again.
Chen Zhen was controlled by Sun Yiran.
At this time, Sun was still looking at Yue Ran who was hanging upside down. Her eyes were as dark as ink, and the light yellow half-sleeves with cartoon patterns were in sharp contrast to her current appearance.
"Zhang Xin is the sacrifice I chose, and you...you are not included in the revelations from the gods. Your appearance is like an arranged accident. Everything is such a coincidence. Well...someone modified your destiny."
Sun Yiran, who said the last words, made Yue Ran feel that he was a bit like a magic stick, and he was the kind of magic stick who liked to pretend to be inscrutable.
"Is the god Sun Yiran mentioned that big eye? No, it shouldn't be it. It has already appeared. If it is really a god that needs sacrifices, then the moment it looked at me, I had already Bye."
While Yue Ran's brain was spinning rapidly, Sun Yiran glanced at him with a complicated expression, as if he was asking the other party why the gods would choose you.
Feeling Sun Yiran's gaze, Yue Ran turned his head unnaturally, not looking at him.
"The way you look now is really hard for me to look at."
Sun Yiran withdrew his gaze and then looked at Chen Zhen.
"He is a sacrifice approved by the gods. You put him down and take Zhang Xin's place."
Yue Ran was stunned by Sun Yiran's words, and soon he understood the fate he was about to face.
"If Zhang Xin survives, she should burn more paper at my grave every year. After all, I died as a sacrifice for her."
Of course, Yue Ran also knew that after this incident, the probability of Zhang Xin surviving was approximately equal to the probability of the national football team entering the World Cup.
"After all, we all saw things we shouldn't have seen, so we had to die, but the way we died was different."
After Yue Ran finished complaining, he began to recall the information in Sun Yiran's words just now.
"First of all, Sun Yiran became a monster. She wanted to welcome what she called the coming of the gods, so Sun Yiran decided to offer sacrifices to welcome the coming of the gods to Zhang Xin, who was in the same dormitory. In other words, Zhang Xin recently All the abnormalities were caused by Sun Yiran, and even the jumping incident in Building D was caused by her.
Sun still managed to do this, but she needed a helper, so she used some means to control Chen Zhen.
As for what those methods are, they should be similar to hypnosis or drug control..."
Yue Ran exhausted everything he knew and began to organize and reorganize the recent events, until he suddenly realized that none of this seemed to have anything to do with him.
Just like Sun Yiran said just now, his appearance seemed to have been deliberately arranged.
"Since that psychology class, Zhang Xin and I have had an intersection, and then we met in Kaifeng Cai, where she told me about her strange and weird dream... Finally, Zhang Xin sent me My inexplicable text message about the library."
Thinking of this, Yue Ran's back was soaked with cold sweat.
All of this really seemed to have been arranged by someone, guiding Yue Ran to come to a specific place at a specific time, and then replace Zhang Xin as a sacrifice recognized by the gods.
Yue Ran immediately thought of Qian Fei, because there was no shortage of Zhang Xin's name in Qian Fei's mouth.
"No, there is another person." The shadow of another person suddenly flashed in Yue Ran's mind, "Auntie... I can't."
Yue Ran's pupils showed a shocked look.
"There is another possibility, that is, my aunt is also part of this plan, and she is also included in it. But the question is, who is the driving force behind it? Why did he let me come here and let me meet that person? Where are the big eyes?"
