Yu Chen saw his father-in-law talking to himself in a low voice while picking up the books on the table, but he didn't understand what it meant, and he didn't dare to ask casually, so he could only watch silently from the sidelines.

After careful selection for a while, Xia Ren finally hid "La Laiye Text", "The King in Yellow", and this strangest book under his clothes.

Seeing Yu Chen's hesitant expression, Xia Ren patted him on the shoulder and said, "Forgive me, son, this is the last time."

"I don't want to do this kind of thing either, but the knowledge is so fascinating."

Yu Chen: "..."

……

……

At eleven o'clock at night, the melodious bells of the church echoed over the entire town.

The old man came in from outside the house, stood in front of Yu Chen, took out his notebook and respectfully wrote on it:

"Master, the ceremony is about to begin."

The old man led Yu Chen to a wardrobe in the corner of the room. The wardrobe was as old as other furniture in the room, and it was covered with carved patterns.

He took out three cloaks with hoods, put on one of them himself, and handed the other two to Yu Chen and the old lady in front of the spinning wheel respectively.

Xia Ren watched silently until the three of them left the house together and went to the street outside.

Before leaving, Yu Chen turned his head and glanced at his father-in-law, Xia Ren nodded, expressing that there is no need to worry about him.

The old man just warned him not to participate in the ceremony, but he didn't seem to be too wary of him. Of course, he might not be afraid of any troubles caused by this outsider.

In short, no one is looking at Xia Ren now, he can do whatever he wants, including attending the ceremony, or even setting the house on fire.

Of course, it is not realistic to order a room. After all, this kind of behavior is too brutal. The wardrobe is not locked. He walked over and took out a cloak from it to put on.

Different from the stale smell that filled the house, there should be sachets in the closet. Xia Ren could smell the faint fragrance from the cloak on his body, not the strange smell as imagined.

He didn't go out in a hurry, but leaned on the window first, observing the scene outside.

With the pale moonlight and the glimmer of light scattered by the snow on the ground, the whole town seemed much cooler, like the scene inside the Wuji Ice Field, desolate and lonely, like a corner forgotten by the world.

People wearing the same style of cloaks came out of the house one by one. They didn't call each other, just kept silent, and walked along the main road towards the church at the top of the town.

Xia Ren breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he could avoid talking, the risk of his exposure would be much smaller.

Pulling down the brim of the cloak, his face was immediately hidden in the shadows, and no one could see this handsome face unless he took off the cloak to look at it.

Pushing open the door, Xia Ren walked calmly, imitating the appearance of the others, and blended into the flow of people naturally.

Along the way, he saw that the lights in the houses on the side of the road were all extinguished one by one. In the night, people wearing cloaks came out from every house and covered their faces so that no one could see who they were.

The whole town seemed to finally exude its unique vitality in this cold and windy midnight. Xia Ren guessed that the residents in the town did not have a good relationship with their neighbors, otherwise they would not say a word when they met on the road.

He quietly quickened his pace, and recognized the backs of Yu Chen and the old man in the crowd, but he didn't dare to get too close, otherwise, if he was recognized, the consequences might be very serious.

Most of Xia Ren's attention was on Yu Chen, so he became a little negligent towards his side.

He accidentally touched the shoulder of the person next to him, but fortunately, the other person didn't care, and kept moving forward, without even turning his head to look at him.

Xia Ren broke out in a cold sweat. The moment he touched it just now, he felt the other person's body was extremely soft, like a rotten fruit. This is not a human touch at all.

He finally realized that the following ceremony may not only be able to find clues to the old gods, but more likely to directly sacrifice to the old gods!

these people,

Do not,

The residents of this entire town are not human!

Thinking back carefully, since entering the room tonight, the old man's eyeballs have never moved, the movement of the head is as stiff as a puppet, and the skin on the face also reveals a waxy texture under the dim candlelight.

And why is he dumb?

Why did the old lady never speak?

Why doesn't everyone on the street talk to each other?

Countless frightening details magnified in Xia Ren's mind.

Perhaps, at this moment, the scene on the street was not as quiet as he saw with his naked eyes.

Perhaps the creatures under these cloaks were talking and greeting each other affectionately, and the whole street was full of enthusiasm.

I just can't hear it myself,

Only you can't perceive it,

Among them, I am the biggest outlier!

Xia Ren couldn't stop these thoughts from appearing in his mind, fear surged into his heart uncontrollably, his face was hidden under the brim of his hat, his teeth were trembling, his legs couldn't move, and he wanted to flinch several times.

This body is still too weak.

Relying on his strong willpower, he forcibly suppressed his fear, and tried hard to control himself not to show a trace of abnormality.

Although, they may have spotted him and don't care.

Xia Ren felt that his surroundings were tightly wrapped by malice, and the strong sense of suffocation seemed to be like an invisible big hand strangling his throat.

Fortunately, the town is not big and the streets are not long.

Following the flow of people, he had reached his destination without knowing it.

Looking up, everyone on the street was gathering in one direction. In front of the flow of people stood the church that Xia Ren had seen from afar before entering the town.

This is a majestic white church. Behind a few huge columns that only three or four people can embrace, the heavy door opens slowly. Behind the door is a darkness that cannot be seen to the bottom, like a terrifying abyss, waiting for ignorant people to walk into it. despair.

On the top of the steeple at the top of the church, a bright star shone in the sky. The position was just right, but it looked extremely strange, making Xia Ren feel a chill that could freeze limbs and bones from the bottom of his heart.

This star seems to be cooperating with tonight's ceremony, and it seems to be tonight's ceremony. Waiting for this star's cooperation, Xia Ren can't help recalling some legends that he has been exposed to since he was a child.

According to legend, evil sacrifices always need to reflect each other with the stars in the sky.

"When the stars are in their right place..."
