The door was knocked, the sound was fierce and urgent.
The woman's arms holding the two children could not help but tighten.
The man walked heavily towards the door step by step.
The knocking on the door became more urgent.
He spoke in a low voice that seemed to contain a bit of anger.
"Chen Er's family, open the door!"
The second child of the Chen family closed his eyes and took a deep breath, suppressing the pain in his heart. He walked to the door in a few steps and opened the door.
As soon as the door opened, two burly men with thick arms walked in.
"From the Chen family, we know you are sad, but whichever family is selected for the River God Festival? Who doesn't feel sorry for their own children? Are your children more valuable? It's all for our village. Relax, There will be more next year.”
Chen's second daughter-in-law was crying and her eyes were red.
If we meet again, it will not be her Zhuzhu and Erbao.
An old man came out from behind the two men.
He had some old man's rickets on his waist, but there was a bit of shrewdness in his eyes.
"To the Chen family, our village will remember your efforts. The coming year will be prosperous, and we are grateful to you."
"Wang Wang Er, go ahead and take the two children away."
Two burly men, Chen's second daughter-in-law, even if she resisted, there was nothing she could do.
The two children in his arms were pulled over, and they were given sleeping pills early. After being pulled, the children's brows furrowed slightly and did not wake up.
Her arms were empty, and Chen Er's daughter-in-law burst into tears. She was held in Chen Er's arms and cried.
This old man is also the village chief.
He waved his hand, and Wang Da and Wang Er each hugged a child and followed him out of Chen's house.
………………
Pei Xihe's eyes fluctuated for a moment, showing some confusion.
Just now she felt some fluctuations in power, which was demonic energy.
Pei Xihe already has the power of the Golden Crow demon in his body, and he couldn't be more sensitive to the power of the demon's breath.
But where is this? This is the realm of mortals. Even the spiritual energy is so thin that a monk can't draw a spirit into his body, let alone a demon?
She didn't believe that there could be any monsters with good blood among this mortal world.
Ordinary beasts can only have a chance to transform into monsters if they are in a sufficient aura environment and given a certain amount of opportunity.
It is simply nonsense that mortals come out of demons.
unusual.
The Shenwu bloodline enhanced her natural psychic ability countless times, and the smell she smelled had a fishy stench.
It is a kind of snake dragon, and the demonic energy is not weak, and the strength should be above that of practicing qi, which makes people even more doubtful.
A foundation-building monster in the mortal world?
But he will never be his opponent, so he might as well check it out.
The figure turned into a shadow of nothingness and disappeared on the spot.
Pei Xihe's perception was astonishing, and he searched for the wisp of evil spirit.
It was night, and the moonlight was dim this night, which was quite eerie.
The figure that Pei Xihe was following paused for a moment. A group of mortals were walking on the path suspiciously. A few stout men were walking with several sacks on their backs.
A golden light flashed in her eyes, and she saw through it.
A living person, a child.
Six children around three or four years old, three boys and three girls. What are you doing carrying these unconscious children on your back without sleeping at night?
Could it be that it's a flower shoot?
Although Pei Xihe was not a kind person who did anything for justice, if it was a child, she would still be willing to take care of it to the best of her ability.
A wisp of gray spiritual energy emerged from the fingertips, as if it was about to shoot out the next moment, but then dissipated.
wrong.
She squinted her eyes, and her dark golden pupils looked particularly sharp.
The leader was an old man, a real mortal, but he was entangled with a bit of evil spirit, which was what he had just sensed.
Although he is not the real owner, there must be some connection.
He held incense candles and other utensils in his hands, and a large cloth bag also contained a pig's head and bits and pieces of fruit.
these things? After all, she had lived in the mortal world to sacrifice something. What role did those six children play? Could they be living sacrifices?
Pei Xihe's eyes turned cold, he hid his figure and aura, and followed closely behind these people.
Their steps were quite hurried along the way, as if there was a ghost behind them. It was also true that there was a ghost in their hearts, so they were naturally afraid of evil obstacles.
Soon we came to a river.
The river is quite turbulent and flows very fast.
The sack on the man's back was gently placed on the ground, and the restraining ropes were untied, revealing the sleeping child inside.
Each child was put on a red festive outfit and was taken out of the sack.
The old man also opened the cloth bag in his hand, took out several plates, arranged the pig's head, the whole chicken with clean feathers, and two carps, and then arranged the fruits he brought neatly.
Incense and candles were burned in front of the sacrifice.
Six children were placed on the ground.
"The river god has a spirit. Please protect our village from good weather in the coming year and help us live and work in peace and contentment."
The old man and several big men knelt down quite piously, facing the rushing river, and made their inner prayers.
Pei Xihe heard their words and captured the key points.
River god?
Oh, there is no god in the world of immortality in Tianxu Shenzhou. Having inherited the memory of the Golden Crow clan, she now naturally knows that only the rumored Zhang Zhentian can be called a true god or a high god.
There are some river gods in this river. They are clearly evil spirits.
Pei Xihe was not surprised that the villagers were ignorant, nor was she angry. She just wanted to see when the evil hidden in the river would come out.
To be able to transform into a demon in this mortal world, there must be a secret behind it.
After praying, the old man stood up from the ground, and several middle-aged strong men also stood up and looked at the children on the ground with unbearable expressions in their eyes.
The old man coughed.
"I know you can't bear it, and the old man is not a hard-hearted man, but if we don't sacrifice to the river god, there will be no harvest in the coming year, and natural disasters will strike, and more people will die, and even these babies can't survive."
"well."
Several men sighed and had no choice. They knew that what the village chief said was true.
They looked at each other and sighed inwardly, hoping that it wouldn't be their child's turn next year.
Then several people turned and left.
Only the burning incense candles, the sleeping children, and the smelly pig's head, chicken, and fish were left in place.
The aura around Pei Xihe was completely suppressed.
I don’t know how long it took.
The light from the moon, which was covered by dark clouds, was quite dim, damp and heavy, as if it was going to rain.
A whirlpool suddenly appeared in the river.
A long green shadow leaped out from it.
Gray-white infinite power condensed on her fingertips.
He thought it was a dragon, but it turned out that this so-called river god was just an ordinary green snake with bamboo leaves.
Three to four meters long, the torso is quite thick, thicker than an adult man's waist.
It circled and twisted its body ashore.
Snake Xinzi vomited and made a hissing sound.
