Chapter 226 Persuasion
Xiaofang was originally a young girl. Although her parents repeatedly dissuaded her from returning, she still had a stubborn temper and returned to the village.

Faced with the village chief's plea, she hesitated.

When the village chief saw this, he naturally didn't want to miss the opportunity.

If Xiaofang can be willing to host the sacrifice, it would be better than if they force Xiaofang to come.

With this thought in mind, the village chief said to Xiaofang, "Although you and your parents moved out of the village, the village gave you the opportunity to live in wealth."

"Everyone in the village is proud of the sacrifices. Your parents will definitely be impressed by you if they know that you have the ability to host sacrifices."

As soon as these words came out, the last hesitation in Xiaofang's heart disappeared immediately.

She looked at the village chief beside her and asked excitedly, "Uncle village chief, what is the process of this sacrifice?"

"I moved out of the village when I was very young, and I don't know much about the situation in the village. If I don't know anything and go directly to conduct sacrifices, I will definitely anger the gods. Why don't you tell me the process of sacrifices? I can also make some preparations.”

The village chief was obviously very satisfied with Xiaofang's attitude.

He immediately nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll talk to you!"

The statue seemed to sense that Chu Nanxing was concerned about the information from the outside.

The expression on his face began to change, and the patterns on his body began to distort.

Chu Nanxing didn't hear the rest of the words clearly, because the statue in front of him seemed to sense some alluring aura and was attacking in his direction with all his strength.

The tentacles on the lower body of the statue and the arms behind it kept moving towards Chu Nanxing.

Chu Nanxing could only keep waving the long knife in his hand. Fortunately, the statue did not have a strong recovery function. The cut off tentacles and arms fell into the inner hall of the temple, and it itself did not grow. New arms and tentacles.

Chu Nanxing estimated that with just a few more blows, the statue in front of her would be completely unable to move. She swung the knife quickly without hesitation.

Soon, the hands and tentacles of the statue were cut off, and the originally empty inner hall was filled with body parts, which looked very scary.

Chu Nanxing held the long knife calmly, and his breathing did not become rapid, as if he was just warming up.

The eyes on the statue's face were fixed on Chu Nanxing. Because he knew there was something wrong with the patterns on the statue's body, Chu Nanxing had been deliberately avoiding his eyes to avoid being tempted by those patterns again.

But she didn't expect that the eyes of the statue had the same function.

Chu Nanxing, who had been staring at her, suddenly felt her eyes blur, and some strange sounds sounded in her ears, as if someone was saying something, but she couldn't hear clearly.

When Chu Nanxing recovered, the statue sat on the throne again, its expression changed to the same as when they first met.

The floor of the inner hall was clean, the body of the statue had been cut off, and the black energy that had escaped from the wound had completely disappeared, as if the scenes just now were all a dream she had had in a daze.

But Chu Nanxing knew that all this was not a dream.

The spiritual energy in the body has been consumed a lot, which is by no means something that would happen under normal circumstances.

The voices of the two people he heard before being confused were getting closer and closer, and they seemed to have reached the door of the inner hall.

Chu Nanxing looked around the inner hall, looking for shelter.

The space in the inner hall is not very large, and most of the space is occupied by statues of gods. Perhaps it is for the sake of those who pray to gods and worship Buddha. Apart from the statues of gods, there is no place to hide.

Chu Nanxing didn't hesitate at all and immediately hid behind the statue.

Knowing that there was something wrong with the statue, she tried not to keep her eyes on the statue and listened to the sounds outside.The conversation between the village chief and Xiaofang did not stop.

The two of them chatted word by word, their voices getting louder and clearer.

The wooden door of the inner hall creaked and was pushed open. A bit of moonlight poured in from the open position of the wooden door, reflecting the shadows of the two people at the door on the ground.

Chu Nanxing took advantage of the perfect position behind the statue to look at the village chief and the woman beside him.

The woman was probably in her early twenties, with a somewhat childish look on her face and a delicate appearance. Her eyes looked left and right, looking around curiously.

He looked innocent, obviously not knowing what he would encounter next.

Chu Nanxing was a little hesitant, not knowing whether what he saw in front of him had already happened or was happening now.

If this knowledge is an illusion of the past, then there is no point in doing anything. But if all of this is happening, then if you don't take action, this simple little girl will become a new victim of this village.

Chu Nanxing didn't want to see such a scene.

She was very confused now and could only wait patiently to see if she could get more news.

Xiaofang didn't know that someone was worried about her safety.

She had always allowed her family members to talk about things in the village, but she had never mentioned the statue in the village. She heard that this statue was only built later.

She always thought that the statues here were similar to those outside, but she didn't expect them to be so unique.

Her eyes were fixed on the statue, and she asked with some confusion, "Uncle Village Chief, is this the statue that has been enshrined in the village?"

The village chief nodded, with undisguised excitement in his voice, "This is the statue that has been enshrined in our village all these years."

"It is this statue that brings us wealth and a peaceful life..."

The village chief said a lot of words of praise for the statue in front of him, but Chu Nanxing and Xiaofang's attention was not on the village chief's words, but on the statue.

She didn't know when it started, but Chu Nanxing's hand was placed on the statue, and she felt a pounding heartbeat under her hand.

Could it be the heart of the statue?

If I take out the heart of this god...will he disappear completely?
Chu Nanxing's hands were ready to move, and she wanted to do it immediately, but she had too many doubts in her heart, and she did nothing in the end.

Xiaofang stared at the statue for a long time, and when she finally looked back, she said, "This statue looks so strange!"

When the village chief heard her words, his face that was still smiling immediately turned cold.

"What did you just say?"

The village chief lowered his head, his expression hidden in the shadows. Xiaofang obviously didn't notice the problem and repeated what he just said.

"Did your mother say anything to you before you came back?"

Xiaofang always felt that the village chief was a little weird. Just when she was about to ask something, she heard his question.

She frowned and began to recall, "I did say something..."
