Xu Ziyan was pleasantly surprised, but his face did not move at all. What the innkeeper said was exactly his inexplicable doubts. He never expected to learn this secret by accident.

He smiled slightly and raised his hand to greet Xiao Er with a pot of the best spirit tea, which was counted in his account.

The little skeleton, who had just been threatened by Xu Zirong, brought the spirit tea up in a trembling manner, and then ran away in a swish, as if some human-devouring monster was guarding it.

(Monster Xu Zirong: ...)

Seeing Xu Ziyan being so eloquent, the boss was also in a good mood. Just as there were not many customers at this time, he lifted his butt and sat on the chair, and began to 'solve doubts' to Xu Ziyan and the others.

I have to say, Xu Ziyan is very lucky. The biggest chatter in this ghost town is the owner of this inn. If it wasn't for Xu Ziyan who happened to find this guy who likes to talk, chat and spread secrets, he would like to find out who is in this town. Secret, I don't know how long it will take.

The boss drank the spirit tea and said, it turns out that in this ghost town in the south of the Yangtze River, everyone lives under the protection of the ghosts and gods, and the annual ghosts and gods sacrifice is also to thank the ghosts and gods for their blessings.

Under the protection of Lord Ghosts and Gods, all the people in their town will not die. Even if they are killed, the one who killed him will continue to 'live' instead of him.

Hearing this, Xu Ziyan couldn't help but think of the cultivators who were forcibly acted as anti-Baomin husbands, and his back suddenly became cold. Fortunately, he didn't take it lightly when he came to the town. Otherwise, if he accidentally killed someone, he would be forever. Can't get out either.

After taking the place of the anti-Baomin husband, those people can bless their consciousness at the beginning, but when the ghosts and gods sacrifice is over, the bodies of these people will be given back to the dead townspeople by the ghosts and gods.

That is to say, after the end of the day after tomorrow, the four people will become the same as the original people, and there is no doubt that the four monks will naturally no longer exist.

This is a relatively poor way to become a townsman, but in a way, these four monks are also considered immortal. Of course, whether they like this kind of 'immortality' is another matter. →. →

Another way to become a townsman is to become a townsman in a small town through some kind of 'ceremony' at the Ghost Festival and enjoy immortality.

Similar to Xu Ziyan, the number of people who actively seek to join the town is not many. After all, the location of this ghost Jiangnan is erratic, and people can only enter here occasionally. The innkeeper was not surprised by Xu Ziyan's choice. After all, few people could resist the temptation of immortality.

It's just... the flames in the innkeeper's eyes twitched slightly, and he only felt a little dazed in his mind. In his impression, the town was very prosperous, and there were often merchants coming and going to do business here, but another On the other hand, he vaguely felt that no strangers appeared in the town for a long time.

These two contradictory thoughts only flashed in his mind for a second and then disappeared. He cracked his mouth and laughed happily. The days in this small town are really boring, and even the complaints of those guests are the same. , It's been a long time, no new people have joined for a long time.

Xu Ziyan successfully obtained information from the innkeeper, and had a good conversation with Tianle who had become invisible.

The next day, Tianle used the news he got from Xu Ziyan and took the initiative to express his love for life here to the townspeople, and he succeeded in hearing more news from their mouths.

What the townspeople heard from seems to be different from what they got from the boss skeleton. In other words, the townspeople in the daytime are 'absolute' ordinary people. There is no one with special powers.

But all kinds of goblins and ghosts in black and white state never shy about the existence of cultivators, and even exchange their own cultivation experience with each other, but they never use those powers, as if the only purpose of their cultivation is to become human.

This is actually a very strange thing, but in Xu Ziyan's point of view, there are too many strange things in this town, and he doesn't care if it happens again.

In the inn's room, Xu Ziyan dipped his fingers with tea and wrote on the table: "So, what exactly is the sacrifice of this ghost and god sacrifice? Zirong said that the blood on the altar is human blood, so they must use the small town's blood. The townspeople came to worship?"

Tianle shook his head: "No, they said that the sacrifices were made of animals like pigs and sheep, not people."

Xu Ziyan paused with his fingers and continued to write, "Could it be that...they want to use you as a sacrifice?"

Tian Le was instantly horrified, but I have to say that Xu Ziyan's inference was very reasonable. Xu Zirong definitely had no problem with the recognition of blood. If he said it was human blood, it must be human blood.

But the news that Tianle inquired about was using pigs and sheep as sacrifices, which proved that the other party didn't tell them the truth at all.

Why would the nice townspeople lie to him? Unless they plan to use Tianle as a sacrifice, other reasons are really difficult to explain.

Tianle was so frightened by Xu Ziyan, but he was at a loss. Now Tianle, like Xu Ziyan, is an ordinary person. If he is talking about fighting, with his current skills, it is not a problem to fight three or five times, but the difficulty is that now the whole town is one heart, no matter how good he is. It is also difficult to beat four hands with two fists, and in the end, it will be properly caught.

"Don't worry, I guessed it just now, maybe the other party really has other ways to sacrifice." Seeing that Tianle was sweating coldly, Xu Ziyan quickly comforted him.

After all, there are many mysteries in this town. Maybe they really sacrificed pigs and sheep.

Judging from Tian Le's expression, it was obvious that he was not comforted, but he also knew that he and Xu Ziyan were on different planes, and there was no way for him to contact each other. He could only rely on himself.

In the afternoon, the townspeople began to leave their homes and take their offerings to the square. The square that was once very empty is now crowded with people.

Tianle also participated in this ghost and god festival accompanied by a woman in yellow. He was very vigilant at first, but he noticed that other townspeople were holding fruits and melons in their hands, and they were leading cattle, sheep and livestock behind them. After that, I was completely relieved.

These townspeople did not intend to offer him as a sacrifice to that ghost, but it was a pity that the smile on his face did not last long, and he saw the young people in the town driving four people who were tied like zongzi. to the center of the square.

The four entered the town one step ahead of them, and were forced to play the role of four monks who were anti-Baominfu. Tianle noticed that the four of them seemed to be struggling and roaring constantly, as if they had broken free from the force that forced them Play the power of the people.

It's just that because of the restrictions of the small town, the monk who used to be aloof has now become a complete mortal. Not to mention struggling, he was pushed by those young people and almost fell to the ground.

"You...how dare you treat me like this! Do you know who I am? A bunch of damn mortals!" The eyes of the young man at the head were burning with anger, but Xu Ziyan could clearly see the disgust and fear beneath the anger in his eyes. .

Among the monks, there has never been any lack of the second generation of immortals with high self-esteem. They have extreme discrimination against ordinary people, and even do not regard ordinary people as human beings at all. Just like the master of the original body in the previous life, when fighting against a demon cultivator, he could hug a mortal village below with a little attention, but he didn't care at all. , the entire small village was completely destroyed by the aftermath of his spell.

Xu Ziyan could easily judge that this young man must be this type of person. In their hearts, mortals are synonymous with lowliness and depravity, as if their existence would hinder the young master's eyes.

It's a pity that he, who once possessed great power, has now been reduced to the mortal mortal he once despised, and was treated like this by some ordinary townspeople. Kill them all.

Xu Ziyan would never have sympathy for such people, not to mention that the reason why these people have fallen to the current situation is mainly because they killed four real townspeople, no matter what the townspeople do, they can be praised. is reasonable retaliation. Even if they didn't kill anyone, this matter had nothing to do with Xu Ziyan, and he certainly wouldn't waste his energy offending the townspeople.

In addition to the young man, the other three were also extremely angry, constantly trying to break the ropes on their bodies, but they were already used to all the solutions with magic, how could they be able to solve the problem when they lost their spiritual power. Open this thumb-thick hemp rope.

Tianle took out a handful of melon seeds from nowhere, and also kindly gave the woman in yellow a handful. The two discussed the next fate of the four while nibbling on the melon seeds.

The woman in yellow looks very pure and lovely. She has two small dimples when she smiles, which is very sweet. But what he and Tianle talked about made people shudder, and it was estimated that only Tianle, a snake spirit, would have such a happy chat with her.

"Do you think they will be bled when they wait?" Tian Le pointed to the four and asked.

The yellow-robed woman pouted, "Definitely! If you don't bleed, how could Lord Ghosts and Gods return their bodies to the original people?"

"Ah?" Tian Le was stunned for a moment: "Does it matter?"

"Of course there is." The woman in yellow nodded: "These people's bodies are filthy and dirty, how can they compare to the immortal bodies given to us by the ghosts and gods, only by smashing their bodies completely and rubbing them into a ball, Only the ghosts and gods can reconstruct a new body and save the original four people."

"Is that so?" Tian Le touched his chin: "Bleed the blood, and then knead it into a ball. This Lord Ghost and God really has a strong taste."

The woman in yellow immediately gave him a dissatisfied look: "What nonsense are you talking about? Didn't Nuwa create a human by pinching it! Lord Ghosts and Gods use the same means and functions to illustrate the greatness of Lord Ghosts and Gods. If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense."
