The three of them stuck their backs together, holding their weapons and vigilantly looking around.

At this time, a woman's whimper sounded from nowhere, and it was eerie and eerie in the quiet and tense atmosphere.

Zhou Yu was so frightened that his hands trembled, and the peach wood sword was dropped from his hand. Fortunately, Qiao Xia quickly grabbed it and handed it back to his hand.

The eyes of the three people immediately turned to the source of the sound, and a woman in coarse clothes appeared out of nowhere on the ground that was empty just now!

Her hands were cut behind her back, tied tightly with thick hemp rope, and she was lying on the ground, crying with tears all over her face.

At the next moment, loud noises suddenly sounded from the surroundings, and a dozen men and women in their 50s and [-]s, who also wore coarse clothes, appeared next to the woman.

"Quick! Use them to sacrifice to the Rain God! Then we can all live!"

"Mother Song, don't blame everyone for being cruel, otherwise, everyone will die!"

"Needless to say, if Mrs. Zhao hadn't taken the initiative to come out, she would have died long ago! An extra ten years is not bad!"

The woman on the ground suddenly raised her face, opened her eyes swollen from crying, and begged bitterly: "I voluntarily sacrificed to the Rain God! I beg you to let my Song'er go! Didn't you always sacrifice to one person in the past! Please!" Please!"

The noise stopped, and a woman wept softly: "Why don't you let her Song'er go?"

There was another round of quarrels around, some agreed and some opposed, and finally the quarrels subsided, and everyone's eyes were all on a middle-aged man with a majestic face.

The woman tried her best to wriggle over, raised her dusty face to look at the middle-aged man, and begged, "Village chief, poor Song'er, he's only seven years old!"

The middle-aged man was silent for a while, then shook his head: "No, the drought has become more and more severe in recent years, and the rain god is probably dissatisfied. The two of you must sacrifice together. You should make a contribution to the village. We are all grateful to you .”

After he finished speaking, the villagers ignored the crying of the woman and the little boy beside her, tied them to a wooden post, and slit their wrists with a dagger.

Looking at her son who was crying in pain beside her, the woman's sad eyes suddenly became resentful.She stared at the middle-aged man until she died without closing her eyes...

Zhou Yu covered his mouth, his eyes filled with tears.There was shock, and there was grief.

People's ignorance is really terrible, how innocent are those who died because of superstition, and how hopeless they must be before they die!

She could hardly imagine it.

And at this moment, a gunshot was heard behind him!

The author has something to say: Thank you for your passionate participation!

Have you changed your mind now?

Chapter 50

It was an ordinary gunshot without a silencer, and the deafening sound made Zhou Yu cover his ears and jumped up, and the mahogany sword fell to the ground with a bang.

And the next moment, a black figure suddenly jumped in front of her eyes, hugged her and fell backwards!

what? !

Zhou Yu's scalp exploded, and his heart almost stopped beating!

But before she had time to scream, she felt her gaze reversed, and after a bang came from below her, she fell into a soft body!

A cry of exclamation and a cry of pain sounded almost simultaneously, accompanied by the ear-piercing sound of bullets hitting the wall, and Lu Tan anxiously shouted beside him: "Are you injured?"

Zhou Yu's heart was beating violently, and through the thin fabric, she seemed to feel another heart beating violently.

Powerful and familiar.

And from the painful cry just now, she was even more sure that the person under her was Qiao Xia!

what happened?

Who fired the gun just now?

Sure enough, someone was following them?

Zhou Yu's mind was chaotic for a moment, but she knew that she had to get up from Qiao Xia immediately!

Just now Qiao Xia fell straight down, plus her own weight...

Although I know that Qiao Xia is strong, she is also a girl of flesh and blood!

What's more... to save myself...

She wanted to get up from Qiao Xia with red eyes, but she was so frightened just now that she felt weak for a while, but fortunately Lu Tan had a free hand beside her to help her.

Lu Tan held the little girl in his arms, and it was inconvenient to go to pull Qiao Xia again, so Zhou Yu stood up straight with his weak legs, and pulled Qiao Xia up.

But actually Qiao Xia jumped up by himself.

"How are you!"

In the dim environment, Zhou Yu couldn't see clearly whether Qiao Xia was injured, but thinking of Qiao Xia's use of herself as a meat pad in order to protect her, it made her feel so sad that she almost shed tears from self-blame.

"I'm fine, let's leave first!"

Qiao Xia's voice was full of spirit, at least he didn't suffer any serious injuries, which reassured Zhou Yu a lot.

But at this time, a woman's whimpering sound floated over again, and the place where there were a bunch of phantoms just now became empty.

Although the voice was still gloomy and terrifying, perhaps it had already been experienced once, Zhou Yu just swallowed his saliva, and did not panic like before.

The three of them turned around to look at the source of the sound, but this time they paid attention to the sounds around them at the same time.

It was still the same woman in coarse clothes, still with her hands cut behind her back, still crying with tears all over her face.The next scene was exactly the same as before, first the noisy villagers, then the pleading of the woman, and then the middle-aged man who had the right to speak appeared...
