A scholar’s ​​path to becoming a god

"Escape? Why?" Sheng Zhiyu asked.

The man said: "There was a great famine at that time, and the villagers had no food. At first they gnawed tree bark, dug wild vegetables, and drank urine, but later they turned to cannibalism.

At that time, many children were eaten. The villagers could not bear to eat their own children, and even exchanged their children for food.

At this time, the Holy Lady said that there was a fairy island overseas, where there was plenty of food and clothing, and everyone had no worries about food and clothing. The remaining villagers gathered and took a boat to come here.

After so many years, although the island is somewhat evil, the villagers have never gone hungry again. "

Sheng Zhiyu was curious: "Then how come my brother and I weren't eaten in the first place?"

The man said: "What are you talking about? Even if your mother and I starve to death, we will never be able to eat our own flesh and blood."

Sheng Zhiyu asked: "How did the saint know that there was a fairy island in the sea?"

The man explained: "The saint has the ability of divination and can predict everything. She is very respected on the island.

Tomorrow is the sacrificial ceremony, and the saint will choose one of the girls in the village as his successor. After all, she is now old and somewhat powerless.

Speaking of which, you should also perform well. Becoming the successor of the Saint is the highest honor.

However, it seems that there has been news that Aling has been chosen as the candidate for the Saint. "

At this moment, the system prompt light came on.

Sheng Zhiyu: "..."

She has no interest in becoming the successor of the Saint.

"Senior sister, what did this uncle say? Why did the lights suddenly turn on?" Qi Heyi couldn't help but ask on the way back.

Sheng Zhiyu told him everything.

While speaking, a prompt came from the system:

"Player Qin Tian has entered the Siam dungeon and applied to become your teammate. Do you agree?"

She usually applies to others, but she didn't expect to be applied this time.

Sheng Zhiyu immediately clicked Agree.

Qi Heyi also noticed that there was one more teammate: "Brother Qin, where did this come from?"

Sheng Zhiyu thought for a while: "He was not in the last dungeon. He should have gone to another Chinese dungeon. Now that that dungeon is completed, naturally only the Siamese dungeon remains."

Although no danger has been discovered yet, with Qin Tian here, she can at least feel more at ease.

"Hey, senior, there's someone there, it seems like a young couple." Qi Heyi pointed to the woods.

Sheng Zhiyu took a look and saw that they were a young man and woman.

The man is handsome, wearing coarse clothes and a pair of glasses, giving him a gentle and elegant appearance.

And the woman is beautiful and charming, it is Ah Yue who is right.

The more Sheng Zhiyu looked, the more he felt that the scene in front of him seemed familiar.

She always had a photographic memory, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it.

"Ahua, your father won't agree with us, why don't we break up." Ah Yue seemed to have cried just now.

Ah Hua said hurriedly: "What are you talking about? I have already decided that you are my wife, and I will definitely not marry A Ling."

Ah Yue said: "But I heard that your father has already engaged you and A Ling, so please stop lying to me."

Ah Hua explained: "That's because my grandma is in poor health and may be dying soon. My father decided on this marriage in order to make her feel more at ease when she leaves..."

It turns out that this is Ah Yue's lover.

It’s just that her cheap dad just said that A Ling is a candidate for a saint, and logically speaking, she cannot marry.

Could it be that Ah Hua is just a spare tire and will get married if she loses the election?

Sheng Zhiyu didn't want to eavesdrop anymore, so he decided to walk away.

At this time, a man shouted: "Ah Hua! Ah Hua, where are you? Something happened to your family!"

When Ah Hua heard this, he immediately let go of Ah Yue: "Wait for me, I'll go home and take a look!"

Ah Hua left immediately, leaving Ah Yue alone in the woods.

Sheng Zhiyu noticed that the system prompt light was on and thought that Ahua's house might have clues to clear the level, so he said to Qi Heyi, "Let's go and have a look too."

Ahua's family lives in the northwest corner of the village. The villagers like to watch the excitement, and the place is already full of people.

Sheng Zhiyu squeezed through the crowd and saw an old lady lying on the ground in the hall, foaming at the mouth and twitching continuously.

But Ah Hua and his father were so anxious that they were sweating profusely.

"The Holy Lady is here!"

I don't know who shouted.

I saw the crowd automatically divided into a channel.

An old-looking woman walked in.

She was wearing colorful clothes, her hair was braided into complicated braids, and she was holding a snake-headed cane in her hand.

The scary thing is that her eyes only have the whites, no black eyes, typical eyes without beads.

But she can walk smoothly and does not need support.

"Lord Saint, what's wrong with my mother?" Ah Hua's father asked anxiously.

The saint stared at Ahua's grandmother for a long time: "There is something evil in the village, she must have been possessed."

As soon as she finished speaking, I saw Grandma Ahua's belly split open, and an intestine with a bloody mouth sprang out from it.

The villagers were frightened.

The intestines were flying wildly in the air, flying towards the villagers.

Sheng Zhiyu saw a small knife on the altar table next to him and threw it away, cutting off the intestines in half.

The severed intestines were squirming on the ground and were smashed to pieces by the saint with a snake-headed cane.

"What kind of evil thing is this?" a man asked in horror.

The saint didn't answer, but pointed the whites of her eyes at Sheng Zhiyu: "You have good skills, you must be a girl from the A Ming family."

Sheng Zhiyu nodded.

Although she didn't know if A Ming was the name of her cheap father.

"Are you betrothed?" the saint asked next.

Sheng Zhiyu nodded: "No, but I have someone in mind."

The saint thought thoughtfully: "You can come to participate in the sacrificial ceremony tomorrow. It won't be too late to make a decision then."

Sheng Zhiyu twitched the corner of his mouth, wouldn't he regard her as the candidate for the heir to the saint?

She didn't want to wade through this muddy water.

Ah Hua and his father were distraught and covered Grandma Ah Hua's body with a white cloth.

The saint said: "She died of being possessed by evil spirits and must be cremated."

Several villagers brought a stretcher and wanted to put Ah Hua's grandma on it.

But at this moment, something moved under the white cloth.

"Mom!" Ah Hua's father was about to pounce.

"Don't move, it's evil!" The saint stopped him with a snake-headed crutch.

I saw the white cloth standing up swayingly and floating in mid-air.

"Where are the evil spirits escaping!" the saint shouted, and the snake-head crutch hit the white cloth heavily.

The white cloth flattened like a deflated rubber ball, and many long red worms crawled out of it, which looked very disgusting.

These long insects moved very quickly and quickly disappeared into the vegetation.

"There is an evil spirit. There is indeed an evil spirit in this village!" a villager said in horror.
