I am King Gou

When he said this, the village chief showed a clear expression of sadness.

The weeping woman is old and has few days to live. Her children and relatives have all been wiped out in the previous draws. The only wish of the other party is to help the village at the last moment.

And this line of outsiders is obviously the rumored practitioner

But the problem is, the truth is not as simple as the mourning woman thought!

Doing so will not help the village at all, but may bring catastrophe to the village.

Hearing this, Qiao Ciguang was noncommittal, and only said: "I already know the origin of the village, but there are still many details in it, and I want to ask the village chief."

Then he said, "I have tried it. For those who already know the secrets of the village, if they explain the situation in the village, they will not be cursed."

"So, please ask the village chief to explain my doubts."

"I am a true disciple of Suzhen, one of the nine great sects. Maybe there is some way to lift the curse for Guicun."

Hearing this, the old Yang family, who dared not draw lots for a long time, looked anxious, and immediately helped to persuade: "Village chief, I think it is better to agree to this foreigner, no, to this fairy girl! Over the years, the rules have changed. Changed again, once every five days, it was already beyond our ability.”

"The extinction of the dead village is just around the corner."

"What's more, it's changed to another day now?"

"If this continues, we will all die sooner or later!"

"Since this fairy is willing to help, why not give it a try?"

"Is it possible that the result will be worse?"

The village chief frowned, hesitated for a moment, then sighed, and said to Old Yang's family: "You go out first, and let everyone outside wait."

Old Yang's family left in a hurry, and before leaving, he did not forget to salute Qiao Ciguang, and said earnestly, "Thank you, Fairy."

When there were only three people left in the house, the village chief went over and bolted the gate, and then signaled Qiao Ciguang and Shi Wanli to follow him.

He took the two of them to the backyard cellar. At the bottom of the cellar, there was a secret passage. After passing through, they came to a vast underground hall.

After entering, what they saw at a glance was a kneeling skeleton, with the clothes of the weeping woman scattered beside it.

The village chief watched, sighed slightly, walked over, knelt down beside the mourning woman, and bowed solemnly behind the bead curtain.

The same as when Fairy Yumeng entered before, the bright pearl curtain was very conspicuous, and the gap was not small, but after Qiao Ciguang and Shi Wanli walked in, they noticed the skeleton of the weeping woman, the spiritual places in those cities, and all kinds of things around them. Details, but no thoughts behind the bead curtain.

It wasn't until the village chief kowtowed that they subconsciously looked over.

Afterwards, both of them changed their faces. The statue behind the bead curtain, in the eyes of the village chief, was a monk with a vague face, but in the eyes of the two monks at the alchemy stage, it was an indescribable horror, a big Disaster!

Qiao Ciguang and Shi Wanli's hearts were beating wildly. After quickly looking away, they still felt palpitations, and their foreheads were dripping with cold sweat.

curse!

Based on their backgrounds, their understanding of this world is by no means comparable to casual cultivators.

Right now, however, it is immediately clear that this idol is the village of the legendary "curse", and it is indeed related to that taboo!

After the village chief kowtowed, he seemed to be a little older. He coughed a few times and said, "You can ask three questions, but as a price, the sacrifice this time must be chosen from among you."

"If you can't agree, then I won't say anything."

Qiao Ciguang frowned slightly, and immediately asked, "How many people are needed for this sacrifice? It would be impossible for us to borrow everyone in the house."

The village chief shook his head slightly and said, "Just one."

"But during the sacrifice process, those who violate the rules must also be counted."

Hearing this, Qiao Ciguang immediately felt relieved, nodded and said, "Yes."

Seeing her willingness to agree, the village head calmed down a bit, and said, "Three questions, you can ask them after you think about them."

Qiao Ciguang nodded, and immediately said: "The first question, are the rules in the village set by the 'curse', or did you, the village chief, do it privately?"

Frankly speaking, she was a little suspicious of the village head in front of her.

Because according to the news passed to Fairy Yumeng by the weeping woman, the rules in the village have always been decided by the village chief.

No matter how you look at it, the village chief is very suspicious.

Hearing this, the village chief shook his head slightly, but said: "It wasn't made by the immortals, nor by me, but by..."

He showed an extremely complicated look, and sighed softly, "It was made by those curse slaves who once served immortals."

Curse slave? !

Qiao Ciguang and Shi Wanli were stunned at the same time, Fairy Yumeng didn't tell them any words related to curse slaves, so the weeping woman didn't know about it?

Thinking of this, Shi Wanli immediately asked: "What is a curse slave?"

"The master of Jidu." The village chief said in a deep voice, "The priests who were in charge of offering sacrifices to the immortals now live in a place called 'Sang'."

"The various rules of Zi Village, as well as this early lottery, are all orders from 'Sang'."

Qiao Ciguang and Shi Wanli frowned when they heard the words.

桑？

Besides Azusa Village, is there another "Sang" on the island?

Where is this place?How many curse slaves are there now?What kind of cultivation are they all?Is it the meaning of the "curse" that they ask for sacrifices so frequently, or do they have other plans?

A series of questions came to the minds of the two of them, but there was only one last question left. Qiao Ciguang thought about it and asked, "This time the lottery was drawn in advance, can you say why 'Sang'?"

"The inheritor of the immortal has returned." The village head sighed, "This sacrifice is because I know so much about the inheritor."

Hearing this, both Qiao Ciguang and Shi Wanli's expressions changed!

The chosen inheritor of Yousu Tomb must not be a living being!

Therefore, no matter what, it must not be allowed to succeed.

Otherwise, a new taboo will be born in Yousu Tomb!

"I've already answered the three questions." The village chief watched their expressions change. After waiting for a while, he couldn't help reminding, "Now, it's time to go back and draw lots."

Qiao Ciguang immediately said: "There is no need to smoke, the sacrifice this time is just me."

They had checked the cemetery where they were buried after the funeral, but they hadn't found a single body.

According to the three questions answered by the village head, it is speculated that all the corpses were taken away by "Sang" during the sacrifice process.

In such a situation, Qiao Ciguang believes that he must go out in person, first deceive the villagers with feigned death, and then, through the village's sacrificial ceremony, go to "Sang" to face the real manipulators behind the scenes, destroy the curse slaves, and behead the "curse" The inheritors of , completely solve all problems from the root!

Although this village worships the former taboo from Yousu Tomb, none of the god statues left behind by him is beyond her ability to look directly at.

But Qiao Ciguang didn't think at all that he would meet the real "curse" on this island.

After all, according to Su Zhentian's records, that Taboo has been missing for a long, long time

What's more, how could the appetite for existence be satisfied by mere mortals as sacrifices?

To put it bluntly, if you really want to satisfy the "curse", even if all the twelve cities of Tianwai Island are sacrificed, it will not help.

Before Qiao Ciguang could finish his sentence, Shi Wanli and the village head were shocked.

Shi Wanli hurriedly persuaded through voice transmission: "Senior sister Qiao, whether what the village head said is true or not is still to be discussed."
