Chapter 176 Sacrifice

Watching the adults gradually receding, Bangier hugged Coranti but still didn't move, because there were still two people staying in place, and they were searching for something, which was Bangier's father and mother.

After they heard that Bangier had escaped with Coranti, they stopped by home to have a look, and soon found that two cows had died, and half of the family's economic pillar fell instantly, so for them at present The most important thing is to stop loss.

The cow was bitten to death by a poisonous snake. When you saw the blue skin, you knew that the cow was already poisonous. It can be said that except for the milk accumulated before, these two cows have no value.

Then if you want to survive, you must first obtain a fortune, and survive this period of time. Originally, if Bangier and Coranti hadn't run away, then selling all their children would be the best way. Not only can get a part of money resources, but also can reduce the consumption of two mouths.

But now that the two children have run away, the two adults are naturally unwilling. For them, the two children are a resource to support their survival. After here, I started to search around.

Bangier was impatient. Although the mountain here is hidden, it is not too far away. As long as you get close, you can easily find the two of them. But running away is not an option now. Once you run out of the mountain, it is inevitable to be discovered. of.

And the bow and arrow in the hands of Bangir's father is not a vegetarian. Although he can't shoot the vitals, it is not a problem to hurt the leg. As long as they stop, the two children will not be able to escape the pursuit of the adults.

"What should we do? It will be a matter of time before they find this place. Even if we don't get shot by bows and arrows when we escape, my sister and I are not as fast as my father." Bangier frantically thought of a way: "If this continues, We will definitely be caught."

This place is still some distance away from the forest. Banguir's parents are searching around, and it is estimated that they will come nearby soon. It is precisely this situation that puts Banguir in a desperate situation.

Just when Bangier wanted to escape by himself, entangle his parents, and let his sister escape, he heard some inhuman cries, and boundless panic appeared in the hearts of everyone around him. Bangier turned around and just I saw that the river over there began to be filled with mist, and the part in the forest turned into a black mist, spreading out of the forest.

"The River of Black Mist is rioting..." This thought flashed through Bangier's head, but then he breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm saved."

Every year, there will be a riot in the river of black mist. Anyone will stay away from the forest, and no one will stay in the open space outside the forest. There will be monsters in the black mist, and people who will stay in the black mist Drag it away and sacrifice it to the River of Black Mist.

The two people who were searching had no choice but to stop unwillingly. It was precisely because of their fear of the black mist that they chose to sacrifice their children in exchange for the eligibility of the black mist to recede and enter the forest to hunt.

Now that the black mist has gradually filled in, it is really impossible for them to touch the black mist desperately.

So the two had no choice but to retreat and prepare the sacrifice together with the whole village. The two bastards may have escaped into the forest, and the things they raised were gone. There was no extra gain, and life would be difficult in the future. up.

The others gradually receded, leaving only Bangier and Coranti hiding in the mountain depression. Watching the black mist gradually fill in the distance, he became anxious again. The original black mist was only diffused in the forest, but every time It will extend outward a little at a time.

Originally there were some people living outside the forest, but as the black mist overflowed, they gradually moved away from the edge, leaving this blank land. Last year's black mist did not reach the col, but this time Not necessarily.

So now Bangir can only hope that his parents will go faster and leave the open space, so that he can come out of the col and hide on the other side of the hillside.

Fortunately, Bangier's parents, or the whole village, were extremely afraid of the black fog. Those two people ran to answer the village. Seeing their figures disappear, Bangier quickly ran out of the mountain with his younger sister. .

Hiding under the hillside, looking at the black mist filling the valley, Bangier only felt that his heart was about to jump out. Just a little bit, he and his sister were going to be enveloped by the black mist. Looking at the black mist, Bangir felt In the black mist, there seemed to be something with strong malice. Staring at himself.

"Koranti, we need to find a place. The village chief will take people to make sacrifices later. We may still be found here." Bangier did not breathe a sigh of relief. The danger they are facing now has not yet Disappeared, only retreated temporarily.

"Let's go, go over there." Bangier took his sister to an abandoned house not far from the black mist. Because of the increase in the overflow area of ​​the black mist, this kind of house near the border was gradually abandoned.

This room has been completely scrapped, and no one usually comes here. Bangier and his sister hid here. As long as someone didn't come looking for it, they would not be found.

And there is another advantage here, that is, you can see the scene of the river from the crack of the door here.

It was getting closer to the evening, and Bangir, who finally heard the voice, went to the crack of the door, and saw that all the people in the village were mobilized. There were seven sacrifices in total, including Cole and Udyk.

Cole and Udyk only accidentally knew that they were the sacrifices, while the others didn't know it at all before, holding the mentality of quail, waiting for the fate to come, until today they were all arrested, seven The sacrificial offering was tied with a rope.

The seven people were all placed on a small boat, like seven worms, struggling, crying, begging for mercy, and cursing, but in order to live, they could not give up offering sacrifices. As sacrifices, everything was already doomed.

After the seven people were thrown onto the boat, the unmanned boat started to move slowly. The boat went upstream towards the forest at the source, and gradually walked into the black mist, losing sight in the black mist , can only hear the river beating against the hull, and the terrified cries of the people on board.

Gradually, those noisy voices also stopped, and I don't know how long it took, the sun went down, the light faded, the black fog gradually faded, and retreated into the forest. All the villagers who stayed in place and waited for the result breathed a sigh of relief. If the sacrifice is successful, then there will be no problems in hunting for the next year.

"Everyone, as usual, I will take people to the forest tomorrow. If you want to come, come and find me later, and you can negotiate a reward." After the white-bearded village chief finished speaking, he led the three big dogs and left.

And Bangier's parents looked at each other and walked towards the village chief.

I am not feeling well today, so the update is a bit late, and there may only be two updates today.
