"Ah!" Huang Xiaolong roared violently, and the bamboo spear pierced my chest quickly. Just when it was about to pierce my chest, Huang Xiaolong's mouth suddenly spurted out a stream of blood. There was a sizzling sound, and bursts of white smoke rose.

It was blood on the tip of the tongue, and the bamboo spear was thrown far away by Huang Xiaolong's abruptly withdrawn hand, and I also vaguely heard a strange scream.

A lot of blood fell on my face. It was warm, but it seemed to have magical powers. It immediately restored a lot of my strength, and I was even able to turn around with difficulty.

And Huang Xiaolong was half-kneeling beside me, panting heavily, with blood still flowing from his mouth.

"Damn, bad luck," Huang Xiaolong said with a smile on my face, "If my old man doesn't come, I think we will have to be a pair of mandarin ducks with the same fate."

I wanted to beat Huang Xiaolong very much, but the villagers had slowly gathered around, and at some point they had all kinds of weapons in their hands, such as kitchen knives and poles.

Huang Xiaolong looked around and said, "I really don't like the living dead."

A villager at the front grinned and said, "I didn't expect that I would miss it. It turns out that there is a big guy hiding here. Hehe, it's interesting."

"It's interesting, seeing our hard-working performance, see if you let us go." Huang Xiaolong was still playing tricks.

This time Grandpa Hai didn't change people, the villager who spoke just now sneered: "Kill it."

Then all the villagers rushed towards us like a vicious dog seeing a bone. Just when I thought I was going to die, an accident happened. I saw a figure with a fishy smell rushing into the crowd. The few villagers who were about to approach us flew away, and then looked at Huang Xiaolong's face with a look of nostalgia. It was the woman in red.

"What are you doing?" the villager asked.

The woman in red said, "You can't hurt him."

"Do you know that if you don't kill them, this place will be exposed."

"You think you won't be exposed if you kill them. Even if you really haven't been exposed, how dare you stay here?"

The villagers and the woman in red were confronting each other, and I looked at Huang Xiaolong curiously. The woman in red pointed at him just now, obviously referring to Huang Xiaolong. Could it be that this woman has some relationship with Huang Xiaolong

The villagers were silent for a long time before they said, "You, you, whatever you want."

After finishing speaking, all the villagers threw away the things in their hands and lined up in a line. A villager who happened to be in the line I didn't want pointed at me and said, "He, you have to take care of him too."

The girl in red shook her head, ignored me at all, but knelt down to look at Huang Xiaolong who was half kneeling, and stretched out her hand to Huang Xiaolong's cheek, but Huang Xiaolong didn't pay attention to her at all, but held my hand firmly. hand, or I stand up.

I was also resisting, but if it wasn't for Huang Xiaolong pulling me, I guess I would have stood up long ago. Huang Xiaolong probably knew that there was no way to compete with Grandpa Hai with the strength of the two of us, so he opened his mouth and said.

"Save him, or I will be killed too."

The woman in red looked at Huang Xiaolong's firm gaze, then waved her hand and fanned the villagers who were pulling me away, and said, "I want this person too."

A villager in line suddenly turned his head viciously to look at the woman in red and said, "You are too deceitful."

The woman in red said: "Forget that I owe you a favor."

The villager hesitated for a moment, then his eyes became dull, and he turned his head and continued to line up. The villager who was knocked down also stood up and was at the end of the line.

The villagers lined up in a long line and walked towards the sea, and half of the people in the front were already in the sea.

Grandpa Hai probably let go of his control on me, sat up with support, and said with difficulty: "He, what are they doing."

The girl in red didn't even look at me, her whole eyes fell on Huang Xiaolong's body, she kept looking at me, Huang Xiaolong glanced at me, asked my question again, and then the girl in red answered.

"This place has been discovered by a cultivator, and he will leave soon. Those villagers are offering sacrifices. After the sacrifices are over, he is looking for another place to start again. Anyway, he has been doing this for hundreds of years."

I listened to the coldness in my heart. For hundreds of years, this Grandpa Hai has killed many lives. I knew that the woman in red would ignore me, so I looked at Huang Xiaolong for help. Huang Xiaolong instantly understood what I meant. , asked the woman in red if she could save those villagers.

The woman in red glanced at me and said, "You want to save those villagers, but they are all dead."

Dead, I looked at the villagers in amazement, thinking they were the same as when I was controlled, how could they be dead, I turned to the woman in red, full of doubts.

Huang Xiaolong said: "They are all there?"

The woman in red nodded and said, "Well, I've been dead for a long time, and my soul has been eaten up by Grandpa Hai, leaving only the remnant soul."

Huang Xiaolong said with a look of shock on his face, "He eats souls, isn't he afraid that the underworld will trouble him?"

The woman in red asked, "What do you think he made those villagers dance for?"

Huang Xiaolong and I looked at each other, and it turned out that the dance was indeed a ceremony, but the sacrifice offered in this ceremony was my own soul.

I said: "In any case, at least their remnants are still there, maybe they can still be reincarnated, and no matter how bad they are, they can be buried in peace."

Maybe seeing that Huang Xiaolong listened to me very much, the girl in red finally turned her head to me and said disdainfully: "Remnant souls can only be reincarnated as some low-level beasts, it is better to die like this, as for going to the ground for peace, hehe , don’t you know that people on the beach are buried at sea?”

I was speechless by the woman in red, and I could only look at the villagers who had already entered the sea. Many villagers knew how to swim, but after entering the sea, they seemed to be unable to do so. They kept struggling in the water, but one Although the children of a few years old were in the back, they were already struggling in the water because they were too short.

But the people behind seemed to have never heard of it, and they were still walking forward, bumping the struggling child into a deeper place.

Is it really just a remnant soul? This scene made my liver and gallbladder split, and Huang Xiaolong said in a nasal voice: "I don't know why you helped me, but can you help me again? Can you help them?"

The woman in red looked deeply at Huang Xiaolong, then stretched out her hand to touch Huang Xiaolong's face, and said, "You don't need to know why I help you like this, and you don't need to know who I am, as long as you know a little bit."

The woman in red slowly stretched her head towards Huang Xiaolong, her lips were directly printed on Huang Xiaolong's.

After a while, the woman in red reluctantly parted from Huang Xiaolong, and said with a smile, "As long as you know a little, I will do whatever you want me to do."
