Chapter 274 Battle of God Slayer (19)
Chi Yu and the other five players looked at each other with different expressions.
"This may be...the power of faith." Anna Maemei pondered, "Say, 200 years...why does this time point sound so familiar?"
"Before entering the illusion, Qi Yue in the real world once mentioned it."
Chi Yu repeated the original words, "200 years ago, Si Huan, the mountain god, sent an oracle to search for talented young girls in Shenyou Village, and the first high priest and the first witch Zhu were born."
"Well... first cultivate successors, and then set the rules of sacrifice..."
Anna Mae touched her chin, "Is there any deep connection between the two?"
Hearing this, Qin Zhen suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "I know!"
She pretended to be reminiscing, "Today Chi Yu and I met Qi Yue... Qi Yue in this fantasy."
"She said that the god might have anticipated everything more than 1000 years ago. And the reason why he cultivated Wu Zhu is... hoping that someone can kill him when he falls into the abyss."
Very reasonable explanation.
Anna Maemei nodded in agreement: "Then it makes sense. At that time, He asked the residents of Shenyou Village to sacrifice every year to deal with... yourself?"
She bent the corner of her mouth and made a joke, "Is it necessary to be so prepared?"
"Sacrifice should be more than a simple, symbolic ceremony." Shi Ling tapped the table with the knuckle of his right index finger.
He looked at Anna Maemei, and retorted gently, "Also, even if Si Huan calculated that he would turn into a monster one day in the future, what he needs to do before it actually happens is not to deal with himself, but... "
"Find a way to eliminate that... the culprit that caused your mutation?" Lin Shenze tried hard to keep up with the thoughts of his teammates.
"It should be like this..."
Qu Yiyang frowned, and suddenly smiled, "It seems that Qi Sheng and the others still insist on holding sacrifices...they still have gratitude and reverence for the gods, which is definitely not the only reason."
"Does he not trust us, or does he trust us too much?"
Chi Yu understood his tongue-twister words without hindrance: "Maybe it's an obstacle deliberately set up for us."
After all... If you can't even reason out such a simple logic, how can you find the flaws in the illusion?
Qin Zhen thought for a few seconds, but decided not to embarrass her mind.
She turned to Fang Yu very openly: "Didn't you say that there were two special incidents? What about the other incident?"
Fang Yu came back to his senses: "Another thing... Oh yes, we walked all the way to the end of the village today, where we saw a sea of irises."
In order to prevent one of his companions from getting confused, he specially reminded, "It's exactly the same as the ones we saw at the foot of Mount Huan."
"Because of the curiosity about the flower king that has the ability to teleport, Brother Hai and I... Brother Qing just wanted to go over and take a closer look, but a villager on the side of the road shouted and stopped us."
Qu Yiyang withdrew his gaze from staring at him: "We asked him if this iris flower sea has any special significance to Shenyou Village, so we are not allowed to approach it."
"The answer he gave was very vague. He only said that approaching the sea of flowers means approaching danger."
He looked at the record in his hand, "Outsiders like us who know nothing about the situation in the village, once we cross the sea of flowers beyond our control, what awaits us is the end of being swallowed by pollution and dying in pain. "
Fang Yu continued: "His tone is serious, it doesn't look like he's joking. Brother Qing and I weighed the pros and cons, and I think it's better to be honest."
"In addition, it was almost evening, so we simply went back home."
He thought for a while: "On the way back, we saw quite a few children carrying cloth bags... There should be a school in Shenyou Village, right?"
"Yes." Facing his companion's questioning eyes, Qin Zhen nodded and said, "Chi Yu and I found a school in the east direction. There are two teachers and about a hundred students in it."
Based on the population of Shenyou Village, it is estimated that there are only more than 100 children under the age of ten at most.
"No wonder……"
Anna Maemei suddenly said, "I didn't even meet a single child along the way. I thought it was because the family education here is relatively strict, so the children won't go outside to play."
Since he followed up with the "school", the next "report to work" naturally became the group of Qin Zhen and Chi Yu.
Seeing that Chi Yu had no intention of speaking, Qin Zhen accepted the task in a very senior manner.
Looking at the records in front of her, she tried to recall: "We have encountered two... no, three things worth noting."
"First of all, we ran into that by accident in the school..."
Qin Zhen glanced at Qu Yiyang, "That girl named 'Xiaoling'."
She didn't give the others a chance to joke, and said very fast, "Just like the girl in the real world, she has the...spell that can conjure flowers out of thin air."
"Spell?" Lin Shenze asked as if confirming.
"Well, that's what the gentleman in the school said." Qin Zhen turned his gaze to Chi Yu.
Without asking, Chi Yu repeated the original words of that Mr. Lu: "Occasionally Master Wu Zhu will come over in person to teach some poetry, songs, or skills and spells."
"He also said that because the students are relatively young, they only learn some superficial things."
Qin Zhen remembered, "I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, but combined with my later experience...the children were taught basic spells, so what about the more in-depth spells?"
"Is it... the residents of the village are studying?"
Fang Yu's eyes widened suddenly: "This is still a low-magic world?!"
Heroes see the same thing...
Watching his reaction, Chi Yu suddenly remembered himself back then.
"You said 'later experiences'..." Qu Yiyang tapped on the table with the cap of a signature pen, "Could it be that you found evidence that the residents know magic?"
"That's...that's it."
Qin Zhen changed his tune, "But one thing is beyond doubt."
"That is... this village is far from what it seems, peaceful and peaceful."
Facing the inquiring eyes of her teammates, Qin Zhen successively shared her and Chi Yu's whole day's experience.
Including Shao Qing, the young man who was unconscious due to the pollution attack, the conversation with Qi Yue, and the middle-aged man Uncle Zhao who almost lost his life in order to restore the "array foundation".
"Pollution..." Fang Yu muttered these two words.
