Around the fifth day, the villagers had already begun preparing for the sacrifice. Every household put up strange animal head masks. The masks seemed to be made of the fur of various animals. They had a faint fishy smell from a distance, as if the skin had just been peeled off and the blood had not yet dried.

On the seventh day, the group of villagers, as if they had made an appointment, lined up in a long queue, wearing hideous and terrifying animal head masks. They took a step and shook their bodies in an extremely twisted and weird posture, and the animal masks trembled slightly.

It was clearly broad daylight, but it was like a hundred demons parading at night. It made people's scalps numb and they couldn't understand it at all.

"This is like a cult, everyone is raging like they are possessed by evil spirits. Isn't this how sacrifices are performed?"

Jiang Jincheng swallowed and stared at the crowd in front of him, which was still neat and orderly. Bai Ze and Jun Li didn't say anything until they saw the platform covered with a huge red cloth being lifted up by four young and strong men at the back, then they frowned slightly.

The thing on the platform was covered with a huge red cloth, but the creature inside was still flipping gently. It seemed as if it was restrained by something and was only trembling slightly, unable to break free.

"Guess what's in there?"

Bai Ze glanced at Jun Li and sneered: "Do we still need to guess? You can tell it's a child with your eyes closed."

"But we don't need to watch the sacrificial ceremony. It's just a trick to confuse the villagers."

Bai Ze was silent for a moment and then said solemnly: "I would like to see how the so-called 'God of Creation' enjoys his tribute after all the villagers have completed the process..."

"Then we just follow them?"

Seeing that the crowd had gone further away, Jun Li took a few people and followed them slowly, keeping a certain distance. Even though they used the breath-holding spell, they still kept an appropriate distance.

Jun Li didn't think that the monster that could create these things would be deceived by a breath-holding spell, so it was safer to remain vigilant.

The group walked very slowly, at that strange pace, and it took them more than two hours to reach a deep forest.

The crowd continued to move forward, going deeper and deeper until they saw a temple that was about as big as the first floor of a villa.

The strange thing is that the group of people did not enter the temple together to worship the gods. Instead, only a few people accepted the tributes and entered.

It took about ten minutes for a few people to come out, say a few words to the crowd, and then leave.

"They... went to all that trouble to just call a few representatives in? And then they just left without saying anything?"

"It's easy to understand."

Jun Li answered for the first time: "We said before that not every villager knows what the tribute is, and those villagers said before that the tribute is prepared by the 'Creation God' after he finds a household in advance and instructs the household, and the household that provides the tribute to the God can have the God's wish come true once."

"The people who just entered are obviously a family. They are probably the family preparing a baby for the gods, because the gods want to fulfill their wishes and not all villagers know that the tribute is a child."

"In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, only those who are preparing offerings are allowed to enter to worship, and the others are just waiting for news outside."

Jun Li waited for a while and saw that Bai Ze didn't refute him, so he was so proud that he pushed Bai Ze: "Hey! Honey, you have to praise me! What do you think of my performance this time? Is your husband smart and handsome?!"

Bai Ze glanced at him with a bit of helplessness and disdain for his worthless and cheap look, but still responded to him: "You did a really good job, keep up the good work."

"Yes, my dear ancestor!"

Mr. Jun got his wife's praise for his move, which was enough to make him feel like he was going to heaven. His face, which originally had a bit of shocking power, was now covered with a hint of a perverted smile, and then he shyly hooked Bai Ze's finger and shook it.

Bai Ze pursed his lips and hesitated for a moment before sighing. He looked at Jun Li with extremely pitiful and sympathetic eyes: "How come you have lost all your masculinity after being with me for so long? Don't you have a jade pendant to provide you with yang energy? Then why have you become so feminine?"

Jun Li: ?

"You think I'm a sissy!!"

Mr. Jun was so happy one second, but in the next he looked like a resentful woman, covering his face and sobbing in grievance.

"If you don't behave properly anymore, I really don't want to bother with you anymore!"

Bai Ze twitched his mouth and said coldly: "Look at you now! When you quarreled with me, you yelled at me and smashed things. Now, what about you? Look at whether you still look like a man!"

"Hey..."

"I'm not... afraid that you'll think I'm domestic violence against you..."

Jiang Jincheng: …

He looked at Bai Ze with great sympathy to express his deep understanding. Xiao Ling seemed to realize that Jiang Jincheng was implying something about him, and instantly grabbed the corner of his clothes and shook it with a wronged look on his face.

Bai Ze was too lazy to make a fuss with Jun Li. He looked up tiredly and watched the crowd leave before he hooked Jun Li's little finger and led a few people into the temple.

The light in the temple was so dim that you couldn't see your hand in front of you. However, the moment Bai Ze stepped into the temple, he suddenly stopped. His pupils trembled slightly and then he swallowed.

Jun Li noticed that Bai Ze didn't seem to have any intention of moving forward, so he looked at him with some confusion: "What's wrong?"

"fine."

Bai Ze regained his composure, but Jun Li could sense his strange aura. Strange creatures would only release strange aura in an attempt to shock others when they were extremely threatened...

Bai Ze...he is afraid...

Jun Li silently put his arm around Bai Ze's waist. Bai Ze leaned his back against his chest and indeed managed to calm down a little.

“I can’t see anything in here…”

Jun Li held Bai Ze and reached out for his cell phone. Under the dim light of the flashlight, a huge golden statue appeared in front of everyone. The statue was not as gentle and reassuring as the ones they usually saw in temples or other places.

On the contrary, he looked extremely intimidating, with auspicious clouds and dragons with bared fangs and claws wrapped around his body. His eyes seemed to be staring at the intruders, and there was a cold smile at the corners of his mouth.

Bai Ze's body trembled and his pupils kept shrinking. He seemed to be frightened and struggled hard to break free from Jun Li's arms and kept backing away.

"No...no...this is impossible..."

"How can this be…"

Bai Ze was trembling as all the strange aura leaked out of his body. His usually calm face was filled with fear and panic, like a rabbit that had encountered an eagle and had nowhere to hide.

"White Pond!"

Jun Li wanted to go forward but Bai Ze kept backing away. His blue pupils were trembling as he stared at the statue above... His chest was heaving so much that he could hardly breathe.

Bai Ze saw...

A god...

God's deterrent power and inherent pressure made Bai Ze lose his composure instantly. The huge sculpture was glowing with golden light, as if divine power was shining on the earth, making it impossible for a strange creature like Bai Ze to escape.

"Bai Ze... don't be afraid... come to your husband..."

Jun Li tried to reach out and hold Bai Ze's arm, but the extremely frightened Bai Ze exuded a strange aura filled with strong vigilance.

"Wife..."

Bai Ze looked at the statue with an extremely ugly expression. Jun Li gently hugged his waist and endured the restless and strange aura from Bai Ze.

Bai Ze slowly calmed down after feeling the familiar touch. Jiang Jincheng and Xiao Ling looked at the huge statue. To be honest, with their mortal eyes, they could only feel that the statue looked fierce and weird, but they really couldn't feel the deterrent power.

Bai Ze was still shaking, obviously because he was afraid. Jun Li even understood that if he was not still here, Bai Ze would definitely turn around and run away.

"Honey, are you okay?"

"Jun Li..."

Bai Ze grabbed Jun Li's clothes and pleaded: "I want to go home..."

"I won't check..."

"I want to go home...I..."

"I am afraid…"
