Reborn: All beasts recognize their master, dig up the divine bones

"She wouldn't really run to the Mu family, right?" Nangong Xi muttered.

"I don't think she has the courage to do that. Let's eat quickly and don't let her ruin our mood." Aunt Zeng looked at Nangong Xi and the others with a smile.

"Aunt Zeng, please keep these gold coins. We can buy whatever we want to eat in the future." Nangong Xi took out a gold coin card and handed it to Aunt Zeng.

"Miss Nangong, how can I take your gold coins? Don't worry, I still have some money so I can afford to eat." Seeing this, Aunt Zeng quickly pushed the gold coins back.

"Aunt Zeng, just accept it. We don't lack gold coins." Nangong Xi stuffed the gold coin card directly into Aunt Zeng's hand.

"This... this is too much, Miss Nangong. That Widow Li is just sarcastic and mean. Don't listen to her nonsense..."

"Aunt Zeng, I didn't give you the gold coins just because I heard what Widow Li said. We are going to live here until the Xuhai Tower is born." Nangong Xi interrupted Aunt Zeng.

"This sacrifice is to prepare for the birth of Xuhai Tower." Aunt Zeng sighed.

"Sacrifice the Xu Hai Tower? The sirens guarding the Xu Hai Tower are so kind, how could they let them capture people for sacrifice?" Nangong Xi was very confused.

"It was because the sea monster suddenly disappeared that the Xuhai Tower seemed to be controlled by an invisible force. It is true that the Xuhai Tower will be born on time, but someone must offer a sacrifice in order to open the door of the Xuhai Tower." Aunt Zeng sighed after she finished speaking.

"It seems that there is something strange inside this Xuhai Tower." Nangong Xi muttered when he heard it.

"Isn't it? But people who went in to explore in previous years didn't find anything strange. By the way, if you want to enter the Xuhai Tower to explore, each person will need to pay 100,000 gold coins. Miss Nangong, you should keep these gold coins." After saying this, Aunt Zeng returned the gold coin card to Nangong Xi again.

"Aunt Zeng, don't worry. I have a lot of gold coins, so this little bit is not a big deal. Let's eat and drink well these days." Nangong Xi smiled.

Aunt Zeng had no choice but to accept the gold coin card.

Nangong Xi and his friends stayed at Aunt Zeng's house, waiting for the birth of the Xuhai Tower.

Near noon, Widow Li came over cursing.

Nangong Xi and the others looked in the direction of Widow Li, only to see her limping in with a bruised face and nose.

"Widow Li, have you stirred up a hornet's nest?" Aunt Zeng asked curiously when she saw this.

"Didn't you tell me that Yin girl was taken away by the Mu family? I wanted to go see her today, but the Mu family said they didn't see Yin girl at all. They also accused me of making fun of them and beat me up." Widow Li said angrily.

Nangong Xi: ...

Although Widow Li speaks harshly, why do I suddenly find her a little cute?

"Widow Li, I just told you that our Yin'er is very lucky, but I didn't say that she is in the Mu family." Aunt Zeng didn't expect that she would actually go to the Mu family.

"You..." Widow Li's face turned pale with anger when she heard this.

"But it's a good thing that girl Yin was not taken away by the Mu family. I was thinking of going to see her and bring her some food." Widow Li said, covering the wound on her face.

"Thank you, Widow Li." Aunt Zeng's thanks were sincere.

"What are you thanking me for? After all, I watched Yin grow up. If she was really sacrificed, I would be heartbroken too." Widow Li replied.

Aunt Zeng couldn't help but tear up when she heard this.

"Besides, is the Mu family sick? The girl Yin has no chance to enjoy the good life, and they push her out to be sacrificed." Widow Li couldn't help but complain.

"Widow Li, please keep your voice down, otherwise those people from the Mu family won't be able to do anything to us and will vent their anger on you." Aunt Zeng said quickly after hearing this.

"What they did was not fair in the first place, don't they allow people to say anything?" Widow Li rolled her eyes.

"Widow Li, I always thought you were mean and sarcastic, but I didn't expect that when something happened, you were the only one who cared about Yin'er." Aunt Zeng sighed.

"Aunt Zeng, you have to hide Yin'er. Those people from the Mu family have found her. This is some money I have saved over the years. I hope it can help you a little." Widow Li stuffed a small cloth bag into Aunt Zeng's hands.

“This…is not necessary…”

"And you, Aunt Zeng and her daughter have a hard life. Don't just think about eating good food all day and add to their burden." After saying this, Widow Li covered her face and twisted her waist and walked away.

Nangong Xi: ...

This widow Li is a typical person with a bad mouth and a soft heart.

"This...we don't need it. Never mind. Widow Li means well. Let's wait until this matter is over before returning it to her." Aunt Zeng sighed as she looked at the small bag of coins in her hand.

As the days passed, the day of sacrifice finally arrived.

Early in the morning, the head of the Mu family came with a group of people beating gongs and drums.

They announced to the public that they were there to pick up Mu Yin, the eldest daughter of the Mu family, for sacrifice.

However, as soon as they arrived at the door of the Mu family, they were bounced away by a barrier before they even entered.

"Isn't this Xuhai Tower yet to be born? Why has the sacrifice already begun?" Nangong Xi was very puzzled.

"The sacrifice was performed before the Xuhai Tower was born. After the sacrifice, when the Xuhai Tower was born, the previous sacrifice would cause the Xuhai Tower to open the entrance." Aunt Zeng explained.

“So that’s how it is.” Nangong Xi understood after hearing this.

Since the Xuhai Tower has not yet come out, Nangong Xi is not in a hurry to let Mu Yin come out of the secret realm of time.

"Zeng Xue, let Yin'er out quickly, otherwise we will miss the opportunity for sacrifice." The head of the Mu family was anxious outside the yard.

"Sacrifice? I never agreed to let my daughter be sacrificed. Besides, my daughter and I have nothing to do with the Mu family. What does the sacrifice of your daughter have to do with me, Yin'er?" Aunt Zeng said coldly.

"Axue, please let Yin'er out soon. Don't worry, after Yin'er sacrifices herself, I will take you back to the Mu family and let you be my second wife." The head of the Mu family gritted his teeth and promised.

It was as if the position of co-wife was a gift to Aunt Zeng.

"You'd better get out of here. Who would be willing to be your second wife?" Aunt Zeng was unmoved.

"Zeng Xue, if you don't let Mu Yin come out, you will be the sinner of Huanxu City." Seeing that soft tactics didn't work, the head of the Mu family had to use hard tactics.

"Sinner? If you, the daughter of the Mu family, don't offer sacrifice and find an outsider to offer sacrifice, and if the auspicious time is missed, who is the sinner?" Aunt Zeng retorted.

"Master Mu, the time for sacrifice is approaching." A gloomy voice came.

"Mu Yin is still inside." The head of the Mu family pointed inside the courtyard and said.

"City Lord, it was the Mu family who took the initiative to sacrifice their daughters. Their daughters are all in the Mu family. You have come to the wrong place." Aunt Zeng said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Master Mu, are you trying to kill me, the city lord? She is right. It was you, the Master Mu, who was offering sacrifice. Why did you bring me, the city lord, to find someone who had long been abandoned by your Mu family?" At this moment, the city lord mainly wanted to capture someone for sacrifice and didn't care who it was.

Catch whoever is easier to catch!
