Chapter 132 Saving People
"How many days are left until the Goddess Festival?" Jun Lan took a deep breath and asked.
"The day after tomorrow." The young wood sculpture held A Yue and looked at Jun Lan, with a light in his eyes, a light called hope, "I think they will find an excuse to send you away from the village tomorrow. They won't let you
People disturbed their ceremony."
"We guessed it." Jun Lan said with a smile, "Uncle Li hinted today that he will send us out of the village after the rain stops."
"It won't rain before and after the Goddess Festival." The young wooden sculpture said, "They have been preparing to send you out of the village tomorrow. I think if the Goddess Festival hadn't come so suddenly, Uncle Li would not have agreed to let you go.
Come into the village."
"So, I'm still a little curious, why is the Goddess Festival this time so sudden?" Speaking of this, Jun Lan is also a little strange. They entered this dungeon yesterday, and the news that A Yue was selected as the Goddess was only reported yesterday.
Before we came out, even Uncle Li, a villager, didn't know about it.
Hearing this, the young wood sculpture hugged Ah Yue tightly and lowered his head slightly: "The Goddess Festival will be held this year. Everyone has known about this for a long time, and the Goddess was also chosen during the Chinese New Year."
Jun Lan and Gu Jin looked at each other. The custom of goddess sacrifice has been around for a long time.
"The goddess before..."
"Drown." The young wood sculpture said calmly, "Because the goddess drowned, everyone in the village thought that the goddess festival would be postponed until next year, so Uncle Li introduced you to the village."
Jun Lan frowned and looked at the little girl in the boy's wooden sculpture arms: "Since the ceremony has been postponed, why did you choose A Yue to be the goddess so suddenly?"
"The rain is getting heavier and heavier." The young wood sculpture said numbly, "Wuzhu said that the river god can't wait to marry the goddess."
"I...go!" Jun Lan looked at the young wood sculpture in surprise. As expected, the words "River God Marries a Wife" popped up in his mind. It turned out that they were not mistaken. It was indeed this drama!
"What's wrong?" Gu Jin and Taibai looked at Jun Lan curiously. Jun Lan's expression had always been indifferent, a little sad at most. Why was he reacting so loudly now?
"It's okay..." Jun Lan's mouth twitched, "It just confirmed an idea."
As he said that, Jun Lan remembered that the wood plastic pharmacist had said that the level of this dungeon was not high for them now, but the gold coins in the dungeon could still make them a fortune.
When she met Jun Lan, she looked at the young wooden sculpture and asked, "If you want to hold this goddess sacrifice, do you still have to pay the sacrificial silver?"
"The festival is for the sake of the entire village. As a member of the village, we naturally need to contribute." The young wood sculpture looked at Jun Lan. Although he said this, there was a hint of unwillingness in the young wood sculpture's tone.
.
It seems that they really have to pay money, are they going to give it to Wu Zhu? So if they defeat Wu Zhu, they can get the money from Wu Zhu, right? Jun Lan thought this way.
"Where are you going to sleep today and tomorrow night?" Jun Lan looked at the young wooden sculpture and asked after the general situation was clear.
"The goddess will live by the river three days before the goddess festival. A Yue was chosen as the goddess and cannot leave the river for these few days." The young wooden sculpture shook his head, "So, we will always
Stay here."
"What the hell kind of rules are these!" Jun Lan exploded, "It's already very unlucky to be chosen as a goddess, and yet I have to suffer here for three days! Are you okay with your brain?!"
"In that case, why don't you run away?" Taibai asked puzzledly. There were no villagers in this place, and A Yue was not tied up by anyone in the village. Since he didn't want to sacrifice to heaven, why didn't he run away?
The young man Wuzhu glanced at Taibai indifferently and said nothing. He just supported A Yue and walked slowly for a few steps.
"Brother Mu?" A Yue grabbed the boy's wooden sculpture's arm in fear and did not dare to move.
"It's okay, let's just walk a few steps." The young wood sculpture comforted him softly.
A Yue glanced at Jun Lan and the others timidly, nodded obediently, walked a few steps with the support of the young wood sculpture, and then stopped.
"What's wrong?" Seeing A Yue stop, Jun Lan frowned.
"I, I can't walk anymore." Ah Yue glanced at Jun Lan timidly, quickly grabbed the young wood sculpture's hand, and replied softly.
"Can't walk?" Jun Lan looked at A Yue strangely.
"You can come over and report to Ah Yue." The young wood sculpture lowered his head calmly and softly comforted the somewhat uneasy Ah Yue.
Gu Jin and Taibai looked at each other. Gu Jin walked out and gently hugged A Yue who was comforted by the young wooden sculpture, but found that she couldn't hold her at all!
"After being selected as a goddess, A-Yue's body became very heavy. No one except Wu Zhu could lift her. Even if she was allowed to walk on her own, she could only take a few steps before she could not move." Young Mu
Plastic said.
No wonder the villagers were so relieved to put the young boy Wuxu and A Yue here. They were not worried about the two of them running away, nor were they worried about someone coming to rescue them. This was actually the reason!
Jun Lan felt like she had a headache, so she couldn't even hide A Yue!
"It seems that we can only stay with you." Jun Lan sighed and smiled.
"What?" The young wood sculpture looked at Jun Lan in surprise, "It will rain again tonight. You can go back to Uncle Li's house to rest. Tomorrow... after tomorrow, the rain will stop completely..."
"Kid, you don't need to teach us how to do it." Jun Lan looked at the young wood sculpture with a smile, "Even if you will become more powerful than me in the future, you are still just an underage kid now."
"Are you sure?" Gu Jin looked at the somewhat dazzling Jun Lan.
"Of course!" Jun Lan said with certainty, "I will contact Aning now and ask her to come and join us early tomorrow morning."
After saying that, Jun Lan looked at Ah Yue who was no longer so scared, walked in slowly, and then slowly stretched out her hand, making sure to make Ah Yue feel that she had no ill intentions.
When neither A Yue nor the boy Mu Su raised any objections, Jun Lan reached out and touched A Yue's head: "Little girl, don't worry, just listen to your brother Mu, and your brothers and sisters will save you soon.
And Brother Mu’s.”
When Jun Lan took back her hand, the timid A-Yue looked at Jun Lan boldly and said in a low voice that Jun Lan could definitely hear: "Thank you, sister."
When Jun Lan was called out by such a well-behaved little girl, her heart warmed up and she nodded with a smile: "Be good, you're welcome."
"We will find a place to stay nearby, and when that Wu Zhu appears, we will kill him." Jun Lan looked at the young wood sculpture and confirmed, "After we deal with the Wu Zhu, will A Yue be safe?"
"I don't know." The young wood sculpture was stunned and shook his head.
Jun Lan smiled nonchalantly and said, "It doesn't matter, I have to give it a try."
When he was about to leave, Jun Lan looked back at the young wood sculpture and the little girl, and saw that the young wood sculpture's eyes were slightly red. While comforting A Yue, she watched Jun Lan and others leave.
Jun Lan saw it, and the young wood sculpture said two words silently.
