I open a supermarket with strange rules

Chapter 33: Strange Stories about the Rules of the South Coast Fishing Village 16

But the cleaner still didn't do anything at this moment. Did he not want to do anything?

Obviously he doesn't dare.

Zhao Xiyue smiled faintly and brushed up her suicidal value, then looked forward.

Today, the layout of the cafeteria has changed a lot. The original dining chairs have been moved away, and a space has been created in the middle. Facing the main door, there is a strange bas-relief.

According to the villagers' discussions, this is the statue of the Goddess of the Sea.

Zhao Xiyue had a strange look on her face as she looked at the statue carefully.

The distorted and strange images and bizarre hieroglyphs in the relief seemed to have a captivating power. Those eyes were like a whirlpool, pulling Zhao Xiyue into the illusion.

Zhao Xiyue felt that she was in a somewhat strange state at the moment. She was dragging a fish tail under her, surrounded by the dark and depressing sea water, and in front of her was a palace plunged into darkness.

In the dead silence, Zhao Xiyue couldn't help but follow the fish-headed people and shell people not far away, chanting obscure spells and dancing an ancient and mysterious dance, as if they were performing some ritual.

She turned her sight and opened her eyes in the silent palace, looking at the sacrificial dance outside the door. Strangely, her eyes were half clear and half crazy, and her heart seemed to be extremely torn. Finally, in a long silence, she closed her eyes and fell asleep again.

As they fell asleep, a large number of shell monsters were swimming down from the higher ocean, and the eyes on their hard shells were full of madness.

"Zhao Xiyue, Zhao Xiyue." The girl's clear voice woke her up from her fantasy.

It's Jenny.

Zhao Xiyue had a strange look on her face. Did she just enter the perspective of the Goddess of the Sea?

What does half lucidity and half madness represent? Could it be that this goddess of the sea has not been completely polluted, but is just using sleep to fight pollution?

In addition, there are monsters that swim from the surface of the sea into the deep sea.

Zhao Xiyue looked at Jenny in a deep voice and asked, "Are you familiar with Dali?"

Jenny shook her head. “Before marriage, girls can’t have frequent contact with boys. But Dali and I have known each other since we were very young. Dali’s mother is my aunt.”

In other words, Dali is not a weird disguise. Instead, under the influence of some force, he will complete his transformation into a weird and return to the sea.

Touching the conch in her sleeve, Zhao Xiyue smiled and said, "I wonder what I should do to send someone off to get married?"

Jenny turned her head to look at the strange relief statue, and said in a awed voice, "The bride must worship the statue of the Sea Goddess when she gets married. If she is blessed, she will soon conceive a child."

"When the bride is kneeling down to worship, the bridegroom must use golden scissors to cut a lock of her hair and burn it to the statue of the Sea Goddess. Only then can the Sea Goddess find you and bless you."

Looking at the mother’s image, Zhao Xiyue felt that some secrets were about to surface.

In her original world, she had heard of strange stories about people using hair to cast curses.

The burning of hair that Jenny just mentioned is probably also some kind of unknown ritual.

Soon, the village chief came over with a priest in a white robe. The priest was very tall, with a hood covering his face. For some reason, he reminded her of Lin Yuan, the uniformed man in the car.

As if he had noticed her gaze, the priest gave her a cold and indifferent look from under his hood.

It really is Lin Yuan. Isn’t he a researcher at the Future Science and Technology City? How did he become a sacrifice?

"All the newlyweds getting married today, come to the statue," the village chief shouted in an old voice, "the ceremony is about to begin."

Jenny held Zhao Xiyue's hand tightly and walked to the front in silence.

A man with a numb expression walked up to her. He was the husband assigned to her by the village.

The two stood together, not saying a word, not making eye contact. They looked more than unfamiliar, almost like strangers.

It’s a pity that this is not a novel about marriage first and love later, but a rule-based weird story, otherwise I could still look forward to the subsequent story.

The newcomers of the other six teams are in a similar situation.

The bride didn't look happy, and the groom looked wooden.

Only when looking at the statue did a look of madness appear in the groom's eyes.

After the seven couples were standing in line, the old village chief slowly began to sing, "This year, there have been 35 couples getting married in our village."

"They both became pregnant within a month of their marriage."

“This is a blessing from their mother.”

When the village chief mentioned his mother, all the women in the cafeteria fell to their knees and chanted a mysterious name, maze.

Zhao Xiyue got goosebumps.

Just now, she felt a damp and cold breath appearing in the cafeteria.

Wet footprints appeared from outside the door, walked around the newlyweds, and finally stopped in front of the statue.

Seeing the footprints appear, all the villagers' eyes showed fanaticism and madness, and they shouted: maze.

"The maze showed up."

"Praise maze."

At this moment, Zhao Xiyue almost suspected that she had accidentally entered a cult worship service.

After the frenzied shouting died down, the old village chief started to cough violently and said incoherently, "I am old and weak. Today, the new priest will perform the ceremony."

Someone immediately expressed his suspicion, "There has been no sacrifice in our village since ten years ago. Who is this person?"

"Not just anybody is qualified to be a sacrifice and have communion with the Sea Goddess."

"Everyone, be quiet and listen to me." The old village chief coughed even harder. He pulled down Lin Yuan's hood, looked at everyone and said, "This is the only descendant of the high priest, Lin Yuan."

"I think it's most appropriate for him to pray for everyone."

The cafeteria fell into silence and no one spoke.

Their expressions did not show joy, but rather some unspeakable fear.

In the silence, Lin Yuan walked to the statue, stretched out his hands, and made a strange pose. Then, he danced to the strange rhythm and prayed to the gods.

It was exactly the same dance that Zhao Xiyue had just seen in the environment.

The sound of the waves hitting the surface became increasingly obvious as it got closer and closer. Zhao Xiyue felt as if wet, salty and bitter water was hitting her body.

The terrifying and cold breath was getting closer and closer, passing by from the left. His arm seemed to be covered with a terrible liquid, and his skin was corroded in an instant.

He is coming.

Zhao Xiyue felt that her spirit was crumbling and she was about to fall into the same frenzy as the villagers.

She quickly drank a bottle of blue potion.

Severe pain came from her left arm. She was shocked when she saw the bloody flesh and green mucus that was still corroding her arm.

He quickly drank two bottles of red potion, washed off the green slime with water, and then looked at the statue with a pale face.

She didn't feel any pain because of the mental pollution she had just experienced. If she had woken up a little later, she would have lost her arm.

Is this the unspeakable existence, so terrifying?

The ceremony continued in front of the statue.

After the cold aura entered the statue, the originally lifeless statue became lively.

The pair of entangled and twisted eyes blinked, scanned up and down, left and right, and then, as if locking onto a target, the resentful eyes stared over.

Zhao Xiyue's hair stood on end and she couldn't help feeling fear in her heart.

But I am so angry. Why am I always the one being targeted?

As she got angry, the fear in her heart disappeared, and she realized belatedly that she had been influenced by the statue.

He only knows how to launch sneak attacks and has no martial ethics.

She raised her middle finger to the statue in a friendly response.

[Death value +30]

Judging from the stats, it's a big guy, but it's definitely not at the level of 'Him'.

It turns out that this so-called mother is just a big weirdo.

After finding out the other party's background, Zhao Xiyue felt confident that if a fight really came to pass, she would not be without a chance of winning.

"Send the bride forward." Lin Yuan's voice was emotionless.

Zhao Xiyue followed the other bridegrooms and walked forward to stand next to Jenny.

"Send the scissors."

Another group of people came up and handed the bride a pair of scissors. The handles of the scissors were wrapped with green threads, which felt sticky and soft, a bit like they were wrapped with seaweed.

The moment Zhao Xiyue held the scissors, she felt something cold and eerie penetrate into her body through the scissors.
