Chapter 124 Who does he want to harm?
"Lord Mountain God, where should we go next?" Hua Xiaoyao grabbed Wan'an's broad sleeve and asked.
Wan'an looked at the countdown for mission one, and there were still 37 minutes and 59 seconds left.
They were obviously deep in the mountains, and wild beasts were howling outside the forest. It was obviously not feasible for her to take six girls safely out of the mountains and back to the mountain village alone.
However, Wan'an believes in the importance of system tasks to players.
Now is the first main mission. Other players will definitely find ways to save these mountain god brides.
She could take this time to inspect the mountain temple.
"Let's open the coffin." After Wan'an finished speaking, he walked towards the nearest coffin.
She wanted to open the coffin because there was no peculiar smell from the coffin from a year ago or from the coffin that had accumulated dust near the stone statue.
That also proves that the bride who was lying in the coffin at the beginning did not die inside.
"Open the coffin?" the six girls said with horror on their faces.
"Lord Mountain God, when you got married before, didn't you open the coffin?" Hua Xiaoyao asked bravely.
Wan'an smiled back, then his face darkened: "I discovered that someone was using my name to deceive."
He flexed his fingers and rapped his bones on the coffin lid.
Listening to the empty sound coming from inside, Wan An smiled with red lips: "In the past, I have never received the so-called mountain god's wife."
"No, every year in Kaoshan Village, seven brides are carried to the mountain temple according to the rules." Hua Xiaoyao explained quickly, fearing that the mountain god would misunderstand and cut off the villagers' food.
"Who made the rules?" Wan An asked, already raising his hand to push open the coffin lid.
There were several large stones placed in the coffin, as well as white spider webs, but no one was there.
"Everyone has followed the rules conveyed by the village chief decades ago," Hua Xiaoyao explained.
"Yeah, as long as we carry seven brides to the mountain temple every year, every household will get new food and supplies on the second night. This has always been like this." Mei Xiaoyue also explained.
"The village chief brought it up?" Wan An closed the coffin and opened another one. Hearing this, he sneered: "Who does he want to harm by using the coffin to carry the bride as a tribute to the god?"
"Lord Mountain God, are you... dissatisfied with our bride this time?" Shi Xiaocao asked weakly.
Wan'an opened more than a dozen coffins, and they were all filled with stones.
After hearing this, he looked back: "This god is just not satisfied with this method of human sacrifice."
"If there really is a god, how can we use human lives to set up a sacred lake?"
When the six girls heard this, they thought the same thing.
Although the village chief always said that marrying the mountain god would bring you happiness, the villagers also followed suit.
But they will also be afraid from the moment they know that they are chosen as the Lady of the Mountain God.
There was also the mountain temple where they were staying. All they could see were coffins. If Wan An wasn't there beside them, they wouldn't have dared to say a word.
Now that they have recognized the mountain god in front of them, they are also willing to believe in him.
At least they felt kindness and warmth from her.
Wan'an leaned on a coffin and raised his fingers at the six girls: "Since you have dedicated yourself to this god, are you willing to listen to my words?"
"I do!" Hua Xiaoyao was the first to express her sincerity.
The other five girls quickly responded.
Wan'an nodded with satisfaction and pointed to the coffins scattered around: "Let's take a look at what's in the coffins."
Six girls: "..."
Thinking that this was Lord Mountain God's first mission, Hua Xiaoyao gritted his teeth and nodded even if he was afraid of the coffin: "I'm not afraid of doing things for Lord Mountain God."
After saying that, he comforted the other five companions: "Don't be afraid even if the mountain god is here."
After Hua Xiaoyao's persuasive words, the girls turned their backs to Wan'an with peace of mind and went to open the coffins.
[Don’t you think you feel like a cult now? 】
"How can you just slander people? They voluntarily believe in me, I protect them, and everyone gets what they need. Is there any problem?" Wan'an retorted.
The Byou system looked at all 52 points of favorability, then looked at the six girls working hard, and fell silent.
The power of blind superstition is so terrifying!
