Chapter 60: It’s better to believe in him than in me
Huo Manshu heard Uncle Bai's words, but didn't understand what he meant.
After all, there is too little information about the ancient village online, and there is no mention of this sacrifice at all.
However, from what Uncle Bai said about the so-called gods marrying wives, she could deduce that this sacrifice should not be simple.
Gu Hao and others placed Huo Manshu in the temple and left as promised.
Huo Manshu could not see anything, she could only listen to the footsteps of those people leaving and the sound of thunderstorm rumbling outside.
Her nose moved, and Homanshu smelled the fragrance-like smell mixed with the soil after the rain.
"Bai Sanqian, what do you want to do?"
Huo Manshu originally thought that she and Uncle Bai were the only ones in this temple, but unexpectedly she heard another person's voice. Just listening to the voice, he seemed to have a strong opinion of Uncle Bai.
"Village Chief, I can't help it. Coco is dead. I want her to have a good life in her next life."
Huo Manshu heard Bai Sanqi's choked voice: "We Keke is so good, God will be willing to bless her."
"Bai San bets, you should know the rules!"
The village chief seemed to be angry at Bai San's gambling: "Those who died suddenly in the ancient village are guilty! According to the rules, even innocent things cannot be done, and they should be buried directly on the spot!"
"I think you are an outsider, and I allow you to do free things for Coco, but you can't be so unruly!"
The village chief was furious: "Is such a solemn place like this temple a place where sinful bodies can enter?"
The village chief pointed at Bai Sangou, his body shaking with anger: "God is angry because of you, you are going to kill our ancient village!"
As if to confirm the village chief's words, the rain outside became heavier, hitting the houses with a crackling sound.
Huo Manshu didn't want to say anything at first, but the place where the sedan landed was not good. The rainwater seeped down from nowhere and hit the sedan.
The sealing of the sedan was not very good. Rain seeped into the sedan. The humidity was too heavy, which made Huo Manshu uncomfortable: "Can you guys talk again later? I'm a little anxious."
Huo Manshu's voice was not loud, but it was like thunder to the anxious Bai Sanqian and the village chief.
"Bai San bet, you actually arrested someone?"
The village chief's tone was a little unbelievable and a little anxious: "The girls in the village are not allowed to move!"
"No, they are outsiders!"
Bai Sanqian's brows were a little impatient: "I'm not from the village.
I should have listened to you, the village chief, and hosted a sacrifice before. It must have been because I refused to host it, so what happened to my Cocoa. ”
While talking, Bai Sangan opened the sedan door and took Huo Manshu out of the sedan.
"Village chief, you said that when the gods are satisfied, they will forgive all souls and give them a beautiful afterlife."
He pushed Huo Manshu in front of the village chief: "She is good-looking, and the gods will be satisfied. We need a better afterlife."
"This"
The village chief was a little embarrassed and seemed to be moved.
Glancing at Huo Manshu hesitantly, he asked, "Can this little girl understand dialect?"
"I don't understand."
Huo Manshu didn't wait for Bai Sanqian's answer. She shook her head first: "I don't understand a word."
Village chief, Bai Sangan, "."
After reacting, Bai Sanqian's face showed anger, and he looked at Huo Manshu warily: "Didn't Gu Hao say you don't understand dialect?"
Huo Manshu nodded, "I really don't understand. I can't understand a single word you said."
After getting off the sedan, through the veil, Huo Manshu could barely see the outside environment clearly. She shook her head and threw the veil off her head.
The first thing that catches the eye is Bai Coco. Bai Sangan not only brought Huo Manshu to the temple, he also brought Bai Keke's body to the temple.
"I said, people don't have a next life, so why bother?"
Huo Manshu suddenly felt pitiful for the silent Bai Keke: "Since you like this daughter so much, why can't you be a good father while she is alive?"
"What do you know?"
Seemingly being hit in a sore spot, Bai Sanqian was a little angry: "How do you know I haven't been a good father!"
"A good father is not someone whose voice is loud, but who is the one who is the loudest."
Huo Manshu looked at Bai Sangan: "Bai Keke asked you to quit gambling, why can't you quit?"
"She likes a stable family environment, why can't you give it?"
Bai Sanqian was still angry at first, but after listening to Huo Manshu's words, he immediately panicked: "Who are you? Who are you? Who said those words to you?"
It was the first time for Huo Manshu to enter the village, so she shouldn't know about his gambling habit.
"I know, of course Bai Keke told me."
Huo Manshu looked at Bai Sanqian deeply: "Do you know what Bai Keke wants to have most?"
"Shut up, how could it be that Coco told you this?"
Bai Sanqian found it hard to accept: "We, Keke, are the best behaved, she won't complain about me.
She loves this home very much. ”
"Really?"
Huo Manshu asked calmly: "Did Bai Keke tell you this personally, or did you think it was your own?"
Even though Bai Sanqian resisted listening to her, Huo Manshu insisted: "What Bai Keke hopes most is to have a happy and stable family."
She lowered her eyes: "You probably can't understand."
Huo Manshu looked at Bai Sanqian with compassion: "This is what is so sad about you."
"Shut up!"
Bai Sangan became angry: "I don't know where you knew those things, but don't try to sway me!"
Bai Sangan turned around and looked at the statue in the center of the temple, with a pious voice: "The God is satisfied and will bless us Coco."
Huo Manshu also took a look at the statue. Rather than saying it was a statue of a god, Huo Manshu felt more like an evil spirit.
The statue was only as tall as an adult man, its posture was casual, and its eyes were not inviolable, but rather obscene.
"I think he shouldn't be a god, but a wretched evil spirit."
Huo Manshu said extremely sincerely, "If you believe his words, you might as well believe me."
Originally, only Bai Sanqian was determined to use Huo Manshu as a sacrifice.
But because of Huo Manshu's rebellious words, the village chief was extremely determined to use Huo Manshu as a sacrifice: "If a yellow-haired girl dares to comment on the God, I will let you wash the feet of the God."
Huo Manshu had no expression on her face, glanced at the obscene statue, and shook her head straightforwardly: "He shouldn't be that lucky."
Because of Huo Manshu's confident words, the village chief was furious.
"Sacrifice to heaven, this woman wants to sacrifice to genius! Marrying a god is an insult to the god!"
"Village chief, don't be impulsive. I'm ready to be the candidate for the God's Cauldron. Everything depends on the God's choice."
Bai Sanqiu saw that the village chief was about to jump up and hit someone, so he stopped him.
