Chapter 42 Meat Eating ([-]) Hungry People
The god who came without warning has no past, no ethnic groups, and no fetters.

Such Him is nothing more than a piece of meat without an owner in the eyes of the hungry people.

The villagers gathered under the locust tree, chattering about how to deal with the troubled God.They greedily want to drink blood, but they are afraid of unwarranted crimes and divine punishment.

Finally, the old village head stood up, claiming that he had a dream last night, which told him that the coming of the gods was for salvation, and that all flesh and blood were gifts.

The old village chief took the lead in cutting off a piece of flesh from the god. The villagers were surprised to find that the wound grew at a speed visible to the naked eye. They were even more convinced that the god came here to help them overcome their difficulties.

They gathered in a circle and talked about their dreams vividly, as if everyone dreamed of God and everyone's actions were approved by Him.

Relying on the ever-growing god meat, the villagers survived the famine.

They were still poor, but each family chipped in to build a new shrine dedicated to the god who helped them survive the famine.

They embellished the legend of the god-given meat, passed it on orally, and gradually spread it to villages near and far.

The story seemed to be developing in a good direction, until one day, a businessman came to Su's Village and said that he wanted to taste the rumored divine meat.

The villagers subconsciously refused, but the businessman spent a lot of money and continued to persuade: "Didn't you say that even if the meat is cut, the wound will grow back quickly? Then what's the harm in letting me eat a piece of meat?"

The villagers hesitated, and finally the old village chief came forward and agreed to the businessman's request.

Su's village used businessmen's money to build roads in the village. More and more people heard about this and came here.

The legend about the gods bleached the blood at the beginning, and then spread through embellishment, like a legend and a gimmick in the market.

Some people say that the divine meat can cure diseases, some say that eating the divine meat can lead to immortality, and some people are purely out of curiosity, seeing that other people are rushing to it, so they leave.

The stupid people had never seen the corpse of God with their own eyes, and they had far less moral consciousness and guilt. They adhered to the superstition and pursuit of God passed down from generation to generation. They gathered at the entrance of Su's Village and demanded to be like the pioneering businessmen. That way you can use money to buy divine meat.

Su's Village is just a small village that is not popular, but there are too many people from far and near.The temptation of money continues one after another, and the poverty in the village becomes more and more glaring.

Finally, one night, the old village head called the village elders who could speak to each other to have a secret talk at home.

The village chief said: "I had a dream last night. The god knew about the situation in our village and took pity on our poverty. He allowed us to use his meat in exchange for money so that the children can live a better life."

The elders of the clan responded one after another, and they added one after another, claiming that they had the same dream, and it was God who personally sent down a decree to help Su's Village improve life...

The new legend was thus fabricated. Early the next morning, Su's Village was announced to be open to the public, and you only need to pay a certain amount of money to taste the sacred meat.

Relying on the money exchanged for the sacred meat, the people in Su's village had enough to eat, built new houses, and had spare money for various pleasures.

But they gradually discovered that the recovery speed of the wounds of the god corpses was getting slower and slower. At the same time, a small number of villagers had mutations, and the corpses after death began to show the characteristics of god flesh...

……

"Oh, let me go, after all, these villagers are responsible for themselves!" Zhang Licai slapped his hands and expressed emotion, "If we survive the famine, we will make offerings to that god, or we can stop after making a fortune from the merchants, it's not like the latter eventful."

"But this is human." Qi Si smiled coolly, with a sarcasm in his smile, "If you pluck out one of your hairs and give you 500 million, would you be willing?"

Zhang Licai didn't know, so he said, "I'm definitely willing, otherwise?"

"What if you cut off one of your fingers and got 5000 million?"

Zhang Licai was silent. He almost anticipated the development of the next question, and knew that answering "yes" would fall into Qi Si's routine.

But if he asks himself, if he encounters such a situation, he knows that his choice will never be rejection.

The smile on the young man's lips became even stronger, and he asked the last question slowly: "What if one day you know that your head can be exchanged for [-] million?"

There was no suspense about this question. Zhang Lizai said quickly: "Then I definitely won't do it. There's no point asking for money if my life is gone!"

"But everyone who knows about this transaction will find a way to chop off your head in exchange for money." Zhu Ling on the side came to a conclusion, looking away from the page and looking out the window.

The sun had already dropped to the height of the roof, and it was about to set, and it was getting late.

She let out a breath, lowered her head again, and read out the last paragraph in the village history: "There are too many tourists who come here for their fame. One divine corpse cannot supply enough divine meat, so the villagers can only take the corpses of mutants." It’s a fishy thing.”

"Later, everyone mutated."

Zhang Licai was just stunned by the question, but now he heard the bloody ending, he couldn't help but gasped, and asked: "And then? Did it say what happened to Mrs. Su? Did you say how to deal with it?" way?"

"No." Zhu Ling put the village history book on the dusty table, and Qi Si noticed that there were obvious tears in the yellowed notebook, and the records on the next few pages were torn out.

However, the story line was already very clear, and Qiss continued: "The villagers discovered that as long as they were exposed to sunlight, they would transform into divine flesh, so they changed the direction of the door and covered the windows with black paper. Just live in the house and eke out a living."

Zhang Licai blinked his eyes twice: "I didn't say that, after all this, they still accept passengers. Is this asking for money? Is it because you are thinking about money even if you become a ghost?"

An idea suddenly came to him at the bottom of his mind. Qisi narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhang Licai with a half-smile expression: "Are you sure they want money? You know, we were all thrown in by a weird game, and no one paid any money. Where is Su Po?"

Zhu Ling thought deeply after hearing the words, "They don't want money, what they want is our meat. So, Brother Yang went out to explore last night and met those villagers, so he was stopped and asked for meat."

"Why do they want our meat? They've become ghosts and still want to eat?" Zhang Licai patted his fat face in confusion, and asked, "Does anyone have any corresponding clues?"

The answer is no.

There are gaps in the clues, and part of the puzzle is solved, but the answers lead to new questions, like a puzzle that is getting bigger and bigger, but the most critical pieces are always missing.

Maybe we have to wait for the clues in the ancestral hall to be completed before we can know the final answer.

Qisi took out his pocket watch from his pocket and took a look at it. The hands were at six o'clock, and there were still three hours before it would get completely dark.

But it's almost dinner time, and there are still some odds and ends to deal with.

Qisi glanced at the dusty village history book but did not put it in his arms.

He put away his pocket watch, suppressed his smile, and said lightly, "Go back to Mrs. Su's house."
