Chapter 09 Sacrifice with ulterior motives
Ge Hong can be domineering, but only if he can get the support of the people in the village.
During the more than ten years of Ge Hong's reign, he managed to get all the bachelors in the village to marry wives through buying and selling.
He also established a connection with overseas "businessmen" and made the whole village rich by planting Ying Ying grass.
With these two points, the whole village can unite closely around them, and they will fight wherever they point.
However, things have changed recently.
First, the girl she bought went crazy inexplicably and was extremely strong. After biting off the man's lifeblood, she stabbed the man's mother to death.
Next, strange things happened one after another.
There are rumors that he has committed evil and implicated the villagers.
In response, Ge Hong just wanted to slap him hard.
Do you really think that I did everything in the past alone?
However, he couldn't say this, because if he did, he would offend all the villagers.
The rumors became more and more intense, and the villagers almost rioted, wanting to sacrifice themselves to the gods to wash away their sins.
Ge Hong panicked immediately.
That's why when Zhenren Wang came to the door, he felt like he had found a treasure.
but……
Ge Hong stared gloomily at Zhenren Wang's busy back.
You're so arrogant these days, you'd better be useful!
Otherwise, we in Gecun don’t care whether it’s a real person or not!
Wang Zhenren, who was busy performing sacrifices, knew nothing about it.
However, he didn't bother to understand what Ge Hong was thinking.
Just a mortal.
Not worth mentioning.
If I hadn't discovered that there was a big demon here, and I couldn't catch people alive for sacrifice, do you think I would have come looking for you?
Wang Zhenren made his own calculation and touched the thing hidden in his sleeve.
It was a jade plaque with a hint of blood.
It is densely engraved with words.
According to records, after this jade tablet was soaked with the emperor's blood, it was placed in the extremely yin place and nourished for thousands of years.
Can absorb resentment and use it for oneself.
And the most important thing is that you can sign a master-servant contract with a big demon full of blood without any backlash.
Yes, this is the real purpose of Zhenren Wang.
Zhenren Wang wants to take the big demon here - that is, Li Ge - as a slave!
But what will happen to Katsura after this?
Who cares!
Master Wang solemnly placed the jade plaque in the center of the incense table, cut his finger, and wrote on it.
The moment he finished the last stroke, the bloody formation seemed to light up for a moment.
Then, Master Wang maintained his air of a virtuous man and signaled to the strong men of Gecun to hold the tied girl and kneel down in front of the incense table.
Li Ge saw this scene just as he climbed up quietly.
The red swamp soil quietly emerged and expanded under the incense table.
He looked directly at the girl kneeling on the ground.
The girl has a delicate face and a delicate figure, but there is no trace of weakness between her eyebrows, she is full of meaninglessness.
The rope left deep bloody marks on her neck and wrists.
This made her show the beauty of her tenacity and vitality.
For some reason, Li Ge thought of the grass growing wildly in the wilderness.
One after another, last year's withered yellow and this year's new green are mixed together, spreading towards the sky. Vigorous and vast.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, it's a pity. Now I'm just a puddle of dirt. Although I can see, I can't do anything."
Li Ge shook his non-existent head.
"It's a pity that such a beautiful girl will soon be killed by feudal superstition."
Although Li Ge thought so, he would not step forward to save others.
Li Ge has always believed in such a thing.
People, or any life.
They are all going to die.
As long as it's not you or someone you care about who dies.
This kind of death is like a grain of dust, not worth mentioning.
It's just a natural law, don't make such a fuss.
but. If it's him who dies... then that won't work.
Fighting to live and live better is the meaning and mission of every life.
Opposite me, Master Wang has completed his own magical ritual.
Under the signal from his eyes, the villager used a sharp knife to slit the girl's throat.
The girl's body collapsed to the ground, curled up on the ground, twitching feebly.
However, because her throat was cut, she could not make a sound.
Gradually, blood gathered in a pool under her body.
And the luster of life was completely lost in the girl's eyes.
Unfortunately, such a scene could not touch anyone present.
"Ding! Energy +1, +1.2..."
Suddenly, a series of system prompts sounded in Li Ge's ears.
Li Ge quickly opened the properties panel.
I saw that the numbers in the "Energy" column of the Swamp of Death were beating crazily.
"The energy has increased so quickly!"
Li Ge was shocked!
The energy of the Death Swamp is actually quite easy to obtain.
However, there is always a contrast in everything.
There are intelligent lives in the forest, but none of them can provide much energy.
However, an ordinary little girl with no powers could actually provide herself with energy harvesting for several minutes at a rate of a little over a second.
Until now, it has not stopped.
Maybe, it will continue until this little girl's blood dries up.
While Li Ge was thinking about it, Master Wang made a new move.
Wang Zhenren made the secrets in his hands and muttered words in his mouth.
Then, the movements became louder and louder, jumping around in place as if possessed by a demon.
Li Ge couldn't help laughing.
"It's fresh. Having grown up in a new society, this is the first time I've watched The Great Dancer. It's more interesting than playing the monkey show."
To be honest, although Li Ge has experienced the fantasy event of "rebirth into a puddle of mud", he still thinks from the bottom of his heart that things like Dancing God are deceptive.
However, Li Ge was quickly slapped in the face.
"Fuck! What's going on?"
Following Wang Zhenren's movements, Li Ge suddenly felt that the body of the little girl lying on the ground became extremely attractive.
The bloody smell that permeated her body was like a small hook, making Li Ge almost lose his mind.
"It smells so good...why does it smell so good?"
Suddenly, Li Ge's eyes turned red.
And his "body", the Swamp of Death, is also ready to move.
But after a while, Li Ge suddenly woke up.
"No! There's something fishy!"
A sense of shame came over me.
"How dare you seduce me? And I was almost seduced?"
This feeling of shame was like a basin of cold water, pouring down, making Li Ge feel cold from the inside to the outside.
If by this time, Li Ge still doesn't know that the sacrifice of Zhenren Wang is directed at him, then he is really stupid.
When Li Ge looked up at Master Wang again, his eyes were full of hostility.
"Scheming against me? Okay, let's see who among us can plot against whom?"
Master Wang's side also felt uncomfortable.
Things didn't go as smoothly as he imagined.
The emperor's blood in the jade pendant contains a lot of energy, and it is the most desired food of every big demon who feeds on blood.
But in normal times, the jade pendant serves as a shell, locking the aura of the Emperor's Blood tightly without any leakage.
Now, Master Wang has used the resentment of human blood and death as a primer, and used the formation as a bridge to draw out the aura of the emperor's blood.
It stands to reason that as long as there is a big demon in the local area, it is impossible not to be attracted to it.
It's a pity that Li Ge is not an ordinary big demon.
He is a person.
He is also a person who is so controlling that he is paranoid.
Master Wang was anxious.
The villagers of Gecun behind him were already looking at him eagerly. If he dared to mess up this matter, he would kill him directly and make sacrifices with the poor girl on the ground.
He gritted his teeth, took out a sharp knife, and cut his wrist.
As soon as he raised his hand, blood drops fell to the ground.
Every drop of that blood carries the true energy that he has worked so hard to cultivate.
However, at this time, he could no longer care about his heartache.
And the effect is immediate.
At that moment, Li Ge felt that his consciousness and actions were separated.
It was as if his own mind had floated to the horizon, watching a body move with only desire.
In an instant, red soil gushes out from under the incense table.
The vision has occurred.
"It's appeared, it's appeared!" one villager shouted.
Master Wang also had a smile on his face, breathed a sigh of relief, and wiped the cold sweat from his head.
The red soil surged, and it looked like the appearance ceremony of a great demon.
Just like when Ye Gucheng appeared on the stage before, he asked the maid to pave a path of flowers for him first.
What is style!
What is ostentation!
When the land turns completely bloody, a terrifying monster hundreds of feet tall and covering the sky will inevitably fall from the sky!
Then!
Master Wang thought proudly and vulgarly.
——Become my subordinate, let me drive you, let me conquer everything!
In the spotlight,
vision,
Stopped.
A pool of red swamp soil lay motionless.
It felt like when Sister Sadako climbed out of the TV, she was suddenly stuck due to a power outage.
He was lifted up in one breath and suddenly suffocated.
"Master...how is the situation?"
Ge Hong asked cautiously.
"Of course it's no problem! Don't talk and disturb my ceremony!"
The panicked Wang Zhenren scolded with a stern expression.
Ge Hong quickly shut up, but there was a hint of dissatisfaction in his expression.
But Li Ge sneered from the side.
Just now, his reason seemed to be suddenly squeezed out of his body by desire.
Being able to watch, but losing all control.
Li Ge was furious,
"If you want to plot against me, you will set the stage for me!"
An order was passed to the citizens who were already waiting nearby.
Suddenly, an eagle cry came from the distance.
The dense army of ants could not wait to arrive.
A sharp-eyed villager suddenly exclaimed: "Master Wang! Look what that is!"
Everyone looked where the villager was pointing.
A black wave surged up from the cliff and kept approaching.
The black wave came unnaturally and was very frightening.
"What is that!" the villagers screamed.
"Don't panic!"
Master Wang gritted his teeth and shouted: "It's just a vision before the big demon comes, we are about to succeed!"
