After learning the secret of the longevity village, Chang Wenwen knew that she was likely to be chosen as a sacrifice, so she was anxious to avoid the disaster by getting married.

In her opinion, as long as one gets married and has a family, he or she will automatically withdraw from being a candidate for sacrifice. After all, sacrificing an impure woman is an insult to the mountain god.

After hearing what her daughter said, Aunt Chang laughed out loud: "My dear daughter, what are you thinking about all day long?"

She thought something had happened to scare her daughter so much, but it turned out to be just this little thing.

Since her daughter already knew everything, Aunt Chang told her the rest that Chang Wenwen didn't know.

In the beginning, the longevity village did have girls in the village offering sacrifices, but no matter how many people there were, they would eventually run out.

After all, the village has to continue, and the men have to marry and have children. It is not a good idea to always use the girls in the village as sacrifices.

Besides, not all parents can watch their daughter die, and not all people want to live forever.

So the villagers came up with a solution, which was to buy girls from outside, so that the girls in the village could also escape the disaster.

Although girls are not as expensive as boys, they still add up to a lot of money year after year.

In order to save money, the villagers started to kidnap again. They did not ask for many, only one a year.

In that chaotic era, it was normal for children to get lost.

But times change, and now if a child is lost there will be overwhelming missing person advertisements. Coupled with the increased vigilance of parents and the ubiquitous roadside surveillance, it has become increasingly difficult for villagers to move around.

At this time, the name of the longevity village suddenly became popular, and people began to come here to explore.

However, due to the backwardness of the village, not many people came, mostly young boys and girls.

Their arrival brought new opportunities to Changshou Village.

Whenever guests come to visit the Changshou Village, the villagers will give them a warm welcome and treat them with delicious food that they usually don't want to eat.

Little did the young boys know that the simple villagers in front of them were devils who would take their lives.

At the villagers' request, they decided to stay for a while to enjoy the beauty of nature and experience the unique local culture.

It was not until the day of the sacrifice that they woke up from their dream and found out that they had already fallen into a trap that had been set in advance.

Since the sacrifice was only held once a year, and in order to avoid being discovered, the villagers would only select the most outstanding girl to be sacrificed when the sacrifice was approaching.

It is best to go out alone, as it will save you a lot of trouble if you don't have friends or relatives.

It doesn't matter if there are too many people. Women stay to continue the family line for the villagers, and those who don't want to stay can join the sacrifice.

The men would pick out the best ones to be husbands for the girls in the village, while the ugly ones would either be made into laborers or thrown into the back mountains after being disposed of.

In the early years, marriages between close relatives were basically the norm in the longevity village, but the current village chief is well-educated and understands that children born from close relatives are risky, so he selects a few men every year to improve the genes.

Chang Wenwen then realized that the village chief had already decided to choose the person to be sacrificed from among the two female guests.

As for the two men living in her house, they were for her to choose one as her husband to improve the genes of her offspring.

"Mom, why didn't you tell me earlier? I've been worried these past few days."

After resolving the crisis, Chang Wenwen nestled in Aunt Chang's arms and acted coquettishly. It didn't matter who was chosen, as long as it wasn't her.

Aunt Chang patted her daughter's back lovingly and said, "How do I know you have so many ideas? Now that you know, don't tell anyone. The day of sacrifice will come in a few days."

Chang Wenwen responded obediently.

After hearing this, Yun Chu finally understood the secret of the Longevity Village, and also understood that Chen Yunfei and Miao Yuan were chosen by the village chief to improve their genes.

At this time, the ladybug's usage time had just ended, and no one saw a small insect fall into the grass and disappear.

As the page on the system automatically disappeared, Yun Chu returned to bed to rest, but his mind was full of the news he had just received.

"What's wrong with you? Is there something on your mind?"

Wan Tingxin noticed that something was wrong with Yun Chu, so she put down the novel in her hand and asked with concern.

"I am fine."

Yun Chu digested the content and couldn't help but feel pity for those girls. Just because they wanted to live forever, they would watch their daughters die. What kind of horrible person would do such a thing?

With this doubt, Yun Chu gradually fell asleep.

At night, the bedroom was quiet, with only a few snoring sounds occasionally.

Wan Tingxin felt the urge to urinate while sleeping, and after a long time she reluctantly got up to go to the toilet.

Fortunately, the room they lived in on the second floor was a suite with its own bathroom, which saved them the trouble of going downstairs to use the toilet.

After going to the toilet, Wan Tingxin was still dazed, with her eyes half open, searching for the location of the bed.

"Boom boom boom!"

Just as she passed by the door, there was a sudden knock on it.

In a quiet environment, any sound would be infinitely amplified, and the sudden knock on the door scared Wan Tingxin so much that she woke up instantly.

As if he was getting impatient, the door was knocked again, but this time with more force.

Wan Tingxin stood there in fear, staring at the door, afraid that it would suddenly open in the next second.

Yun Chu was woken up when Wan Tingxin got up to go to the bathroom. She usually slept lightly in the dungeon, and she couldn't sleep well without someone she trusted around her, so she would wake up immediately if there was any noise around her.

"Sister Chuchu, Sister Xinxin, are you asleep? I couldn't sleep so I came to chat with you."

Chang Lili's voice came from outside the door.

Wan Tingxin looked at her system time, it was exactly 00:04.

[Rule 2. Please stay in your room after midnight. No matter what noise you hear, you must not open the door to check.]

She was not a fool. Even if it was really Chang Lili outside the door, she would not open it.

Yun Chu gently lifted the quilt and walked in front of Wan Tingxin. A B-level attack card instantly appeared in his hand.

"Are they all asleep? Why didn't they open the door for me?"

Chang Lili outside the door grumbled in dissatisfaction.

Yun Chu and Wan Tingxin looked at each other. Could it be that the person outside the door was really Chang Lili and not something weird?

But to be on the safe side, they chose not to open the door.

Unexpectedly, just a few minutes later, Chang Lili's tone suddenly became very strange outside the door: "You are really vigilant. I can't fool you."

Wan Tingxin opened her eyes wide in shock, it turned out that she was the only one who was naive.

After saying the last sentence, there was no more sound coming from outside the door, not even the knocking on the door, and the room fell silent again.

"Boom boom boom!"

Just as Yun Chu and Wan Tingxin lay back on the bed and prepared to continue sleeping, there was a knock on the window beside them.

"I know you are awake. I am watching you two..."

A faint voice reached Wan Tingxin's ears, and she was so scared that she immediately hugged Yun Chu beside her.

Yun Chu couldn't stand it anymore. She already had little sleep time, and yet he disturbed her again and again.
