Chapter 16 Silkworm God
Zhan Xiaobai followed the mistress and the others through the garden, then turned a corner and left the garden and went straight to the back mountain, but did not go to the place where the family worshipped.

The moonlight shines on the ground and on the trees, a breeze blows by, and the shadows cast by the mulberry trees are faint, as if countless girls are chattering and discussing their team.

The further you go to the back of the mountain, the lower the temperature, and the cold wind seems to be able to penetrate directly into the bones of people.

"Why is it so cold?" Ding Mei said, rubbing her shoulders.

"It's quite cold, and now there is no sound of insects." Zhan Xiaobai said.

The mistress led everyone around a mountain depression and came to the entrance of a cave.

The housekeeper and servants stepped forward one after another, and placed all kinds of melons and fruits, stewed meat and snacks in front of a small stone platform.

The mistress put the tray in her hand on the stone platform and took off the red cloth.

Zhan Xiaobai could see clearly that it was a statue of a worm with a horse face, the whole body was white, the upper half of the worm was woven with silk threads, and the lower half was embroidered with silk handkerchiefs.

This is definitely not an orthodox silkworm god, no silkworm god is like this.

The mistress and the housekeeper scattered some paper money, lit the incense burner, and led the crowd to kneel on the ground.

"Gao's No. 19 acting mistress, come to see the silkworm god, may the silkworm god bless Gao's weaving brocade smoothly, and believers wish to sacrifice ninety-nine souls every year." The mistress knelt on the ground and said, her hands tied A strange handprint.

A gust of cold wind blew by, and Zhan Xiaobai shivered deeply, but soon the surroundings became warm again.

Feeling warm, I just want to close my eyes and have a good sleep, my nerves are tense these two days, I am really tired.

Suddenly, an embroidery needle tied with red thread pierced her eyes.

She woke up with a start.

"Boom."

She looked up and saw that Meng Wei, who was kneeling in the front row, fell to the ground, and then the people next to him also fell to the ground.

Zhan Xiaobai took a closer look and found that those who fell down were the first players to use the right to refuse.

These players fell to the ground, still maintaining a kneeling posture, each with a warm and peaceful look on their faces.

If he fell directly onto such a hard ground, he would have let out a cry of pain, but how could it be silent?

Zhan Xiaobai crawled over and touched their breath.

They were all dead.

"How could this be?" Zhan Xiaobai asked angrily.

The mistress turned her head and glanced at Zhan Xiaobai, with a somewhat displeased expression.

The housekeeper understood, and said to Zhan Xiaobai: "What is it? This is the cave of Silkworm God, how can you allow me to shout like this and seal her mouth up."

Immediately, two servants stepped forward and pressed Zhan Xiaobai to the ground, and stuffed a piece of cloth into her mouth.

The mistress straightened her back, her expression full of indifference: "Please keep quiet and don't disturb the Silkworm God."

Everyone kept silent and knelt in the back silently, while Zhan Xiaobai was pressed down by the servants, and his whole body was almost stuck to the ground.

The mistress put the remaining paper money in the fire, and burned a few locust trees and mulberry branches.

The strange fragrance released from the fire lingered in everyone's heart and nose, and mist gradually began to fill the surroundings, and some people's faces began to be blurred.

The original warm feeling was gone, and Zhan Xiaobai felt more and more cold, as if he had spanned three seasons from spring to winter directly.

Just in a daze, there was snow in the sky, and it was still heavy snow, falling on people's heads and shoulders one by one, everyone was shivering with cold.

Seeing this scene, Gao raised his hands above his head, facing the cave in front of him, kowtowed his head, and shouted loudly: "I know that you are angry, Silkworm God, and blame us for not enshrining you for many years, but this time please I must help the Gao family, and I will pay ninety-nine souls to pay homage to you every year."

Ninety-nine creatures? 81 lives?To be so insane, Zhan Xiaobai felt that she was inhuman when listening to the words of the mistress.

As soon as Gao's words fell, the snow in the sky gradually disappeared, the smoke gradually faded away, and the surroundings returned to the original faint appearance of the moonlight shining on the ground.

Immediately afterwards, Gao took out a piece of jade wrapped in red cloth from his bosom, dug a hole, buried it on the ground in front of him, cut his own finger with a knife, and dripped blood on it.

Zhan Xiaobai's face was just on the ground and he could see clearly.

What is this?Is it the art of witchcraft?
Gao wiped away his crazy look, took out the handkerchief he had prepared and wiped the blood marks on his forehead, stood up and said to the servants: "Carry these fallen people into the cave."

She turned her head and said to the players kneeling on the ground: "It is your luck to be valued by the Silkworm God. I will compensate their original family with a generous reward. Please cooperate to complete this flying brocade production, otherwise you will end up like these people.”

A big stick, a sweet date, this is really a routine from ancient times to the present, it is really ironic.

On the way back, the indistinct shadows were much less.

Zhao Yujie stepped forward and patted Zhan Xiaobai's arm and said, "Why are you so stupid today, openly confronting an NPC on such an occasion, be careful that you will die the next moment."

"It happened so suddenly. I just wanted to ask Mr. Gao why the person kneeling in front died suddenly." Zhan Xiaobai said.

"This is indeed a bit strange. Why are the people who died the first batch of people who learned how to use the power of rejection?" Zhao Yujie said.

"Do you still remember the embroidery needles with red thread at the end that Mrs. Gao gave us back in the courtyard?" Zhan Xiaobai asked.

"Of course I remember, when I was kneeling on the ground just now, the needle suddenly pierced my eyes." Zhao Yujie said.

"The needle also pricked my eye, so I speculate that it was the embroidery needle with the red thread on the tail that protected us from the Silkworm God's attack," Zhan Xiaobai said.

"But Meng Wei and the others also have embroidery needles given by the mistress." Zhao Yujie still doesn't quite understand. Everyone has embroidery needles. Why did the embroidery needle pierce the illusion given by the Silkworm God, but did not protect Meng Wei and the others? Woolen cloth?
"But have you noticed that Meng Wei and the others did not participate in the production of embroidery, they have never picked up embroidery needles, so they naturally cannot get the protection of embroidery needles." Zhan Xiaobai speculated.

"But didn't several of our players die just because they used embroidery needles to embroider pictures of the Flying Girl?" Ding Mei couldn't help but ask as she walked beside her.

"This is the problem we have to dig deeper in the future." Zhan Xiaobai said. The Nine Heavens Flying Girl Picture and the Silkworm God seem to be two completely different forces. If we figure out the reason, maybe there will be a sedan chair. Clues.

"Wow, woof, woof."

As soon as everyone stepped into the courtyard, the dogs in the entire Gao's mansion barked crazily.
