Just when Xiaogu Huaiyu began to wonder if the townspeople in Panlong Town were all sick, a bustling conversation began to be heard from the audience.
Although it was far away, because the place was too empty, Xiaogu Huaiyu still heard something.
"...I heard it was an outsider this time."
"Yeah." Sigh, "I don't know if Lord Dragon God will like it this time, we are almost the same in town..."
"Should like it, I think this girl is so handsome."
"...Oh, I hope."
There are many similar words, Xiaogu Huaiyu listened to it for a while and then stopped listening.
Then, in the dark place on the stage, a man with a ghost mask suddenly walked out.
He staggered, with a crutch in his hand, and tried to stabilize his body when walking.
When he walked some distance from Xiaogu Huaiyu, he didn't go on.
Then he spoke, "Quiet." The voice sounded a little old.
Obviously it was just a fluttering sentence, but it calmed down all the people in the audience who were still bustling just now.
The old man coughed a few times before continuing.
"Today is our annual sacrifice to Shenlong in Panlong Town. We dedicate our innocent children to Lord Shenlong. We only pray that Lord Shenlong will come to this town again to fulfill our wishes."
The old man seemed to be in poor health. After saying this, he coughed continuously for a long time.
But when he coughed, he didn't forget to wave his hands at the people on both sides.
They seem to have a good understanding of this situation.
Although the old man did not speak, they walked straight to Xiaogu Huaiyu and took her up.
Because Xiaogu Huaiyu had always wanted to know what the sacrificial offerings were about among the population of Panlong Town, so he didn't resist, but stood there watching them with interest.
Two men with strong physique led her to the cross-shaped wooden stake that she had just seen.
After that, without saying a word, he directly tied her to her head.
The two men who did it both gave her a surprised look.
Probably I never thought that there would be children who are so calm and not afraid at all.
However, this strange thought only lasted for a short while, and after confirming that Xiaogu Huaiyu couldn't break free of the rope, he left.
Because of the sticks, Xiaogu Huaiyu could clearly see the things on the stakes.
The stakes are just ordinary stakes, nothing special.
But where the wrist is tied, there is something like a groove on both sides, and because it's close, it can be seen clearly.
Below the groove, there is a look like a water storage port.
Most of those things are used to store water.
But appearing in such places where there is no water, Xiaogu Huaiyu doubts the purpose of this thing.
She moved the rope tied with her calmly, and after making sure that she could break free within a second, she didn't think so much, she looked honest.
The old man was wearing a ghost mask, and although he did not speak, he stood and looked at her from beginning to end.
When he saw that she was not afraid, there was a strange feeling in his heart, but he soon suppressed that feeling, and after a light cough, he moved on to the next step.
The old man didn't know where he took out a small knife with a big palm and a hook-like shape. The blade of the knife didn't know if it was often bloodied, or if it was specially made like this.
There is a faint unusual pink on the knife body.
The old man took the knife, walked in front of her, and then reached out to where her wrist was.
Just when the old man was about to row down, Xiaogu Huaiyu suddenly spoke.
"I advise you not to do that." The voice was very weak.
The old man twitched the corners of his mouth and barely smiled, but because he was wearing a ghost mask, Xiaogu Huaiyu did not see the change on his face.
"Whether or not to do this is up to me." The old man said in a deep voice, and then with a small knife in his hand, a wound was made on her wrist.
Xiaogu Huaiyu frowned, but did not resist.
She seemed to be waiting for something.
It's different from what the old man imagined.
After the wrist was slashed, there was not a lot of blood flowing down, but a dark red sticky, blood-like thing slowly flowing out of the wound.
The old man's mouth trembled, but in the end he said nothing, and continued to slash his wrist on the other side.
Xiaogu Huaiyu didn't make any defensive movements from start to finish, and he didn't even look at him. Instead, he watched directly at his blood flowing down in the blood trough.
The blood flows from the blood tank to the blood storage port.
The blood in the blood accumulating mouth accumulates more and more, and things that are peeping in the dark seem to be unbearable. The claws rub against the floor, seeming to want to rush out, but they seem to be afraid of something. , Doesn't dare to come out.
Xiaogu Huaiyu looked at the blood storage mouth with a pale complexion, secretly counting.
When the count reached ten, what was hidden in the darkness seemed to be finally unable to bear it.
The ground began to vibrate.
At first, it was only a small margin, and it was not very obvious.
But gradually, that feeling became more apparent.
The townspeople in the audience did not have the slightest panic on their faces, but there was a feeling of joy, and joy made them talk again.
"...This time Lord Dragon God appeared so early, is it that he is very satisfied with this sacrifice?!"
"It looks like it is. This time, Lord Dragon God’s movement is greater than before. This time we are likely to see Lord Dragon God coming." This voice sounded very excited, especially the last sentence, the tone. Everything has changed.
"It's really possible!"
Otani Huaiyu calmly listened to the turmoil and various excited words from the audience.
She knew very well that long ago, when Panlong Town established a large formation, there really were dragons, but after so many years, coupled with the continuous weakening of formations, the way of heaven does not allow those that do not conform to this era. Existing creatures still remain here, so long ago, the dragons in these townspeople’s mouths were long gone.
But she was very curious about what it was that could make such a big move.
The noises are getting louder and louder, and the townspeople in the audience can't stand still, but the smiles on their faces are getting bigger and bigger.
Finally, there was a bang, and I didn't know where the building collapsed, it seemed that something came out of it.
Xiaogu Huaiyu narrowed his eyes and looked at the place where the sound had just come from.
The footsteps sounded heavy.
It's like the sound of a giant beast walking on the ground.
The sound of footsteps approached, and the smiles on the faces of the townspeople froze when they saw what appeared.
After a scream, the townspeople were completely confused.
"What, what's going on?!" The speaker's voice was a little panicked.
