Zhang Fan and other survivors were tied up by the villagers of Haitang Village and carried towards the entrance of the village. If nothing else goes wrong, they should be sacrificed to the evil old tree at the entrance of the village.
Sai Yao said that this old tree possesses a very terrifying evil power that can make anyone who sees its appearance lose control and want to hang on it.
That's why the people of Haitang Village wrapped such a terrifying old tree tightly with black emery cloth.
The villagers of Haitang Village carried Zhang Fan and others along the long streets. After walking for an unknown amount of time, they finally arrived at the entrance of the village.
At this time, the sky was dark and gloomy, without any light. Even the crescent moon in the sky quietly retreated deep into the dark clouds without a trace.
The cold wind at night raged across the island, making a terrifying whistling sound. From a distance, I heard howling like ghosts and wolves, causing the dead trees on the island to sway.
Outside the entrance of Haitang Village, there is a quiet and deep forest. Looking at it, you can't see how far away it is, everything is shrouded in boundless darkness.
At the end of the woods is the terrifying Mermaid Bay. In the Mermaid Bay, turbulent waves are crashing, and a light white mist lingers on the sea level. From time to time, terrifying mermaids jump out of it.
"Put them down!" At this time, Jia Dashun stood in the crowd with his hands behind his back, and ordered in a low voice to the villagers who were carrying Zhang Fan and others.
As his command words came out, the villagers nodded silently, waved their hands, and threw Zhang Fan and others heavily to the ground.
The ground was covered with rubble and debris. After they were thrown to the ground, they were instantly dizzy and gritted their teeth in pain.
There was even a female survivor, face down, accidentally knocked on a stone, her head was bruised and bleeding, and she looked extremely miserable.
"By sacrificing these foreigners, the whole village will be able to extend their lifespan by another year!" Jia Dashun couldn't hide the joy in his heart, with excitement in his eyes, and shouted to a group of villagers around him.
After hearing this, everyone screamed excitedly. Nothing makes people happier than immortality.
"You people chose to sacrifice us at the entrance of the village. Aren't you afraid that the mermaid suddenly sang and confused you all?" Zhang Fan swallowed and saw Jia Dashun and others chatting happily and dancing. There seemed to be no music in his ears. Clogged with cotton, he couldn't help but sneered.
"Haha, you don't need to worry. The mermaid won't sing tonight because..."
"You'll find out later, just look forward to it now!" Jia Dashun smiled evilly, and in the middle of his words, he suddenly stopped and did not continue.
"Don't worry, I will keep you at the end so that you can see clearly how the sacrificial ceremony is performed!"
"This should... be regarded as the last gift I prepared for you!" Jia Dashun clapped his hands, and the next second, a strong villager strode out of the crowd, holding a hand in his hands. Using a huge ax, he slowly walked up to a survivor who was tied up and unconscious, and then cut off his head with one blow in front of Zhang Fan.
The head was chopped off, and blood spurted out from the broken neck like a spring. When it splashed in the air, it drew a scarlet rainbow.
"Gulu!" The huge head rolled a certain distance on the ground and became bloody. It didn't stop until it rolled in front of a stone.
"Look, what a wonderful art this is!" A sickly look appeared on Jia Dashun's face, enjoying this scene immensely.
It seems that he is very obsessed with this kind of bloody murder scene. This scene frightened the several survivors who woke up one after another, and their faces turned pale.
If this situation continues, these people will definitely die here in frustration today.
"Continue!" Jia Dashun laughed ferociously, urging the villagers holding big axes to continue killing the next survivor.
When the villager heard the sound, he raised a cold smile, raised the ax in his hand again, and walked towards the second survivor.
Lift the ax, raise your arm, gradually apply force, and chop down suddenly.
"Whoosh! -" But the moment he struck, a harsh sound suddenly resounded in the vast night sky. The next moment, a sharp arrow shot out quickly, killing the villager's body. Throat, pierced by an arrow.
The arrow pierced the throat, causing blood to splash and float in the air, outlining a gorgeous blood flower. Then, the villager holding the giant ax opened his eyes wide, fell heavily, and could no longer die.
He never saw who killed him.
"Huh? How could this... be... who is it?!" Jia Dashun, who had his hands behind his back and was about to enjoy the feast of killing, saw that one of his people was shot to death by a sharp arrow. His face suddenly changed, and his expression instantly became tense. He was so scared that he looked around.
He wanted to find the man who shot the arrow. However, no one around him responded to his question. Instead, at the same time, there was another harsh sound piercing the air, and a sharp arrow drew a red rainbow in the vast night sky. Ben Jia Dashun's head.
Seeing this scene, Jia Dashun could no longer remain calm. As soon as the arrow came closer, he rolled around and dodged.
Although he avoided it, he still looked extremely embarrassed, because after the donkey rolled around, he lay on the ground with his face covered in dust.
This scene made the surrounding villagers gathered here all become commotion. No one knew where this inexplicable archery attack came from.
They stepped back one after another and kept some distance from Jia Dashun, fearing that they would also be implicated.
With the help of the magical effect of mermaid meat, they have lived for hundreds of years, and they are all extremely afraid of death. So when they encounter danger, they all act a little panicked.
At this moment, Zhang Fan saw Jia Dashun being suddenly attacked. He was also a little confused and didn't know what happened.
But just as he was looking around, he felt that the rope tied to his body suddenly and strangely broke.
Sensing the loose feeling on his body, Zhang Fan struggled hard and pulled his hands away. He quickly looked back and saw Sai Yao standing not far away, looking at him quietly with a gentle smile.
"I'm relieved to see you're fine!" Sai Yao smiled sweetly at Zhang Fan. This smile immediately made Zhang Fan feel his heart beating wildly, and his old face became slightly hotter.
Good guy, does this have such great stamina? Just smiling at me makes my nose bleed.
"Ahem, it's not bad! Okay, let's hurry up and save the others. While the villagers here have no time to care, we can find the right time to burn the old tree!" Zhang Fan coughed twice and tried his best. He calmed down his turbulent heart and said with a smile.
"Of course it's no problem!" Sai Yao smiled again, and before she finished speaking, her figure turned into bubbles out of thin air and disappeared.
Her departure cannot be seen by outsiders, only Zhang Fan can see it. Zhang Fan just narrowed his eyes slightly and didn't say much, as if he was used to Sai Yao coming and going without a trace.
Zhang Fan broke free from the restraints and did not dare to delay. He hurriedly ran in the direction of Zhao Ping and quickly untied the hemp rope on his body. Seeing that he was still unconscious, Zhang Fan was not polite and directly raised his hand and touched him. Two hard slaps on the face.
Not to mention, after these two slaps, pain suddenly appeared on Zhao Ping's face, and then he slowly opened his eyes and woke up.
"Are you awake? Great!" Zhang Fan watched Zhao Ping open his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief. Before the other party could ask, he described to him what had just happened.
"Now let's save other people, so that we can burn the old tree and create opportunities!" Zhang Fan glanced at the dark night sky. He didn't know the specific time now, but he just wanted to burn the old tree as soon as possible. Just burn it.
After all, there were too many villagers in Haitang Village. Maybe they had not reacted to the sharp arrow attack just now, so they fell into a brief commotion and panic.
But once they come to their senses and they try to take action, it will be really troublesome.
"Let's go, do it quickly!" Zhao Ping was not stupid. After seeing the surrounding situation, he immediately understood what was going on, so he jumped up from the ground and staggered towards the other survivors who were tied with hemp ropes.
But they didn't really get close to them. In the next second, these survivors broke free from the rope and jumped up.
Seeing this, Zhang Fan and the two men were stunned, obviously stunned. He was able to break free from the rope with the help of Sai Yao, but how did they do it.
"Are you surprised?" A long-haired woman wearing a black dress looked at Zhang Fan and sneered.
"Yes!" Zhang Fan said.
"Quite the nonsense, are you planning to burn that tree?"
"We are all grasshoppers on the same rope! Let's burn this old tree together and we will be safe!"
"Quick, our people can't hold them off for too long. We need to act as soon as possible, otherwise it will be too late!" The long-haired woman gave Zhang Fan a cold look, then waved to the other survivors beside her. He ran towards the old tree wrapped in black sandpaper.
