Millennium Chapter Eighty-ninth Selection of People to Sacrifice the River

The Taoist priest first used the method to stabilize the skyrocketing river water, but the people in the village did not agree to the use of living people to sacrifice. Who would have to let their children sacrifice to this unknown river god? Everyone refused the Taoist priest's method. Seeing that the advice was ineffective, the Taoist priest smiled and left. Unexpectedly, as soon as the Taoist priest left, the wind and rain were stormy at night, and the river water surging.

The flood suddenly flooded several families near the river, and the whole village was frightened by the thunder overnight and could not sleep at night. The next day, the village chief found the Taoist priest again.

I knew you had to look for me, so I didn't go far and just rested in the dilapidated temple outside the village for a night. Last night, the river god was furious, and you all saw it! How could this god be so angry that we and the mortals could calm down! Only by fulfilling the will of the river god can you live! Otherwise, the whole village will have to be killed! Sacrifice one person, and the whole village will be buried with you. You can choose it yourself!

After hearing the Taoist priest's words, the village chief summoned the whole village and explained to the whole village that girls who were unmarried and over 14 and under 22 years old were going to worship the river. But if this method was really used, who would send their children to worship the river? Who would be willing to send their children to die?

The villagers didn't speak, but those who had girls in their families who were in line with the conditions looked panicked and painful, while those who had no girls or were not in the conditions looked relaxed and grateful. There were two differences in the whole village. Why do we ask our children to worship the river god? Who can guarantee that this is really useful? Just this Taoist priest with unknown origin?

This is what someone at home who meets the requirements said.

Isn’t this to save the whole village? Taoist priests are masters of Taoism and knowledgeable, so they must be right! What? Do you want the whole village to die with you for your children?

This is what a woman in the family said.

What did you say? You dare to fart here without a daughter! If you ask your daughter to go, can you still say that? It doesn’t matter to yourself! It’s all a fucking human being!

This is also what people at home say about girls who meet the requirements.

This is wrong. My family doesn’t have it, but if I have it, I will definitely sacrifice my daughter for the entire village!

This is what a woman in the family said.

Where did you come from? Don’t fucking fart here! Pretend to be fucking noble!

This is a girl at home scolded her.

This is wrong. My child is young. If my child is old enough, I will definitely sacrifice my daughter for the entire village!

This is what someone who has a daughter in the family but is not at the right age.

Everyone started arguing. One was that their faces were flushed and their voices were hoarse; the other was that their tone was frivolous, the corners of their mouths were unconsciously raised, and their faces were full of nothing to do with them.

Enough! Stop quarrel!

The village chief's loud shout did make the villagers who were about to fight calm down.

No one will be willing to bear this matter, but the whole village has hundreds of lives! The overall situation is the most important thing! Everyone writes the names of the girls who meet the conditions on bamboo sticks and puts them in bamboo baskets to draw. Whoever they draw will be, and no one will blame anyone at that time, because this is God's will and fate!

Everyone was silent again, but no one left first. The village chief was helpless. After all, there were no one else except him who had studied in the village. The village chief had to personally click on each girl who met the conditions, write it down one by one, and put it in a bamboo basket. Suddenly, there were crying and the scene was very chaotic. The village chief finally ordered all the girls who met the conditions in the village. Just as he was about to draw lots, the Taoist priest who had not spoken said something.

Are the girls in the village here?

The village chief's hand holding the basket was obviously tightened.

Where is Hao Mengxi? Why don’t you write about Hao Mengxi in your family? Ah! Sacrifice our children to save the whole village, saying so noblely, why don’t your own children write about it!

This was what the people who wrote the girl's name said. It immediately became a controversy, and everyone in the village began to condemn the village chief.

Mengxi Mengxi is the child I picked up! She is not a person in our village!

Hao Mengxi is a child picked up by the village chief. The village chief’s surname is Hao. Because he was picked up by the stream, he named Hao Mengxi. The village chief always treated her as his own. However, the village chief’s explanation was so powerless. His words were like throwing a stone into the mountain. How could the stone shake the mountain?

Oh! If you don’t count, it doesn’t count. Did she grow up eating rice, drinking water, and wearing clothes in the village? Village chief, you have raised her for more than ten years, and now you say she is not from this village? Is there any reason for this?

What? Our girl can write, but your girl can’t?

I see, since she is from a foreign village, she is just right to use her to sacrifice to the river, it is time for her to repay her kindness! Can't she be nurtured for nothing, right?

That's right! I think it's OK! Let her come to sacrifice to the river!

OK! Well said!

Such unreasonable and shameful requests were answered at this moment! Moreover, the people who wrote the names began to insult and ridicule the village chief, and even some even wanted to beat the village chief!

I don’t think Mengxi should be allowed to worship the river god, after all, she is not from our village.

Yes! The river god who is not a person in our village will definitely not agree!

The young men in the village said this.

Nonsense! Why do we want to worship the river god? You must have said that because of the beautiful girl Hao Mengxi!

You are right! You are a group of stinky men, you are fascinated by lust, let that little girl be fascinated! They are all dying!

In my opinion, Hao Mengxi's girl looks beautiful and the river god must like it, so it would be best if she lets her go to sacrifice to the river!

Well said! Just do it! That's right, let that little bitch die!

The girls who are usually called Hao Mengxi sisters have said such inhumane and cruel words in life and death, coupled with their jealous hatred!

shut up!

A delicate shout made the chaotic scene quiet in an instant. Hao Mengxi, dressed in plain clothes, walked slowly from afar, attracting everyone's gaze, and even the Taoist priest was fascinated! The men's faces were filled with unbearable expressions, and the women's faces were full of jealous expressions, but no one spoke any further.

Hao Mengxi walked to the village chief, took the pen from the village chief, wrote his name on the bamboo stick, and put it in the bamboo basket. His beautiful and sharp eyes swept across everyone, and said with a righteous expression.

You are right. Dad has raised me for eighteen years and I am a member of this village! So the bamboo stick in this bamboo basket should have my name. However, you have no reason to let me die! The person who raises me is my dad! I should repay my kindness. If he says he wants me to sacrifice to the river and repay my kindness, I will never say anything, but you are not qualified!

Hao Mengxi said that the whole village was speechless.

The village chief looked at Hao Mengxi excitedly, and tears almost flowed down. He hurriedly wiped it with his sleeves and blinked hard, so that the tears did not flow out. In fact, the village chief asked for trouble early in the morning to help Hao Mengxi with the purpose of allowing her to escape this disaster. Hao Mengxi turned around and smiled at the village chief. The smile was so bright that it was about to be released!

The village chief looked firm, took a step forward, and shouted to everyone:
Chapter completed!
