Chapter 115
Aunt Wan had no choice but to explain: "This girl always wants to run away... but she has no choice but to be tied up."

The priest nodded and did not continue to ask.

He wore a large robe made of animal feathers, a bone ornament on his head, and mottled and complex runes on his face. His original appearance was unclear.

boom--

Someone beat the drum and the sacrifice began.

The young priest walked up to the altar, picked up the tortoise shell raised by the person next to him, knelt down in the center, and muttered something.

Several young men came on stage wearing skirts also made of feathers, and their movements seemed to be dancing.

Yan Zhou looked at the dance, which was like a group of demons dancing wildly, and somehow recalled Alan's time. He didn't expect that she would face the risk of being sacrificed as soon as she arrived.

She twirled her fingertips. Inside were the teleportation talisman and the puppet talisman. If she really couldn't stop this sacrifice from happening, she would have no choice but to escape from her shell.

Then... what kind of identity will I fabricate...

Suddenly, several waves rose up from the calm river surface, ruthlessly destroying the wooden boat parked on the river, and water droplets splashed onto the altar.

The priest's whole body was wet, but he still stretched out his index finger to trace the tortoise shell, and suddenly——

There were many cracks on the nail surface.

Aunt Wan became anxious when she saw it: "Priest, what's going on?"

"Yeah, what's going on?! In the past, even if the River God was dissatisfied with the bride, he wouldn't be so angry!"

"How to remedy this?"

"Priest, please think of a way!"

The young priest frowned, ran his fingers along the crack, closed his eyes and recited a few words, then opened them again:

"Everyone, please be patient. It's not the bride's fault. It's the Lord River God who has reached a once-in-a-millennium tribulation level. Now he has the temerity to send sacrifices while the Lord is in retreat... We are offended."

"This……"

After hearing this, Aunt Wan had no doubts. She hesitated for a while and asked: "Then... what should we do with these two little girls? Our village has always been secluded from outsiders, so it is impossible to send them back."

Priest: "Let's keep the baby alive for now. It won't be too late to make sacrifices after the Lord River God's tribulation is over."

Aunt Wan nodded, sighed, and asked people to send the two girls back to the village. After thinking for a while, she added: "Let them live in the dressing room. In addition to not letting them come out, they will have two meals a day." To lose weight, the lady accepted by the River God in the past was slim, by the way..."

She seemed to remember something and looked at the women in the village.

"We have to select a few with good eyesight and give them to the future River Goddess."

As soon as these words came out, all the girls in the village backed away, not wanting to be selected at all.

Because the only maid of the River Goddess who went down before was also pulled into the river by the River God, no one was willing to do it without money or life.

He Xu stepped forward and whispered in Yan Zhou's ear: "Follow me, I can help you."

"help me?"

Yan Zhou's eyes were confused.

He Xu: "You can just choose me to be your personal maid."

Yan Zhou's heart was a little complicated. Did He Xu think the treasure was with the River God?
But...so sure she will be chosen...

Yan Zhou looked at the young priest on the altar. Perhaps, someone had already met before her and Zhang Ke.

"I want her, I want her to be my maid!"

Zhang Ke, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said loudly to Aunt Wan, his face turned to He Xu's position, and his direction was obvious.

He Xu's face didn't look very good, and he subconsciously looked at Aunt Wan.

Aunt Wan was thoughtful, thinking about Zhang Ke's words, and then directly replied: "Okay, you, go over to her side." She watched He Xu raise her chin towards Zhang Ke.

He Xu's eyes were filled with anger as he glared at Zhang Ke. Finally, due to Aunt Wan's sharp gaze, he could only walk over reluctantly.

Upon seeing this, Aunt Wan casually pointed a girl to Yan Zhou's side as a personal maid.

She actually didn't care who was the personal maid, Zhang Ke just gave it to her as soon as she asked.

After all, after starting to offer sacrifices every ten years, except for the one chosen by the river god a hundred years ago, all the others became food for the fish in the river.

Those two girls were just disposable items to them.

Yan Zhou showed no expression, lowered his head and let the maid help him back to the sedan chair.

The sedan was swaying, and she was lying on the soft cushion with her head propped up. Only then did she realize that there was a string of wind chimes tied to the top of the sedan, swaying in the wind, and the sound was crisp and pleasant.

"This sedan doesn't seem to be the one it came with."

Yan Zhou didn't expect anyone to answer, but there was a voice outside the sedan. It was the personal maid who was chosen for her later.

"A sedan was damaged due to special reasons, so Aunt Wan found a temporary sedan at the priest's field."

Yan Zhou: "There is a wind chime on this sedan chair, which is very special."

There was no sound from the other side for a long time.

After a long time, she whispered in a dark tone:
"I heard... this is the sedan chair used by the River Goddess, and she also put the wind chimes on it."

Yan Zhou became interested and continued to ask: "Since there is the River Goddess, why do you have to send us there?"

There was no answer this time. Yan Zhou was also very sensible and sat calmly in the sedan chair, but his eyes never moved away from the pink wind chimes.

Returning to the dressing room, only the maid was left behind. With the sound of the door being locked, Yan Zhou understood that she was locked up again.

but it does not matter.

She closed her eyes and raised her hand to signal the maid to take off her heavy clothes.

It wasn't until his body became lighter that Yan Zhou felt his sore neck, and he thought to himself.

No wonder the possessed secret realm is extremely dangerous. The difference in the physical quality of the possessed person is very random. If you start with sick Yangzi... you will be dead.

That Aunt Wan had no intention of abusing them, and soon dinner was delivered. Yan Zhou took a look and saw that it was grilled fish, taro cakes, and a few wild fruits.

The personal maid stared at Yan Zhou without blinking, and did not return to the compartment until she saw that she had finished the food.

At night, when it was confirmed that the people in the cubicle had entered light sleep, Yan Zhou twirled his fingers and looked out the window.

……

After consuming the puppet talisman and the invisibility talisman, she successfully walked out of the door. The two tall men outside the door were already feeling dizzy.

It seems that the people in the village are not very vigilant towards this "weak" woman.

The village is very huge, and each of the stacked mushroom-like brick buildings can accommodate many people. Under this structure, you can bump into people when you go out. It is really difficult to deal with without being invisible, but there are still some people who are very brave...

Yan Zhou planned to go downstairs to explore, but heard Zhang Ke's door creaked open.

It was He Xu who walked out.

The guard guarding the door was startled, and he was relieved when he saw it was him. Just as he was about to speak, something was stuffed in his hand.

Looking down are two pearls.

The condition is pretty good and worth a lot of money.

So he immediately changed his expression, nodded and bowed and asked He Xu to leave.
