Congratulations on opening the coffin

Chapter 608 The Living Sacrifice
Hearing the system's warning, Shen Ruo raised his eyebrows calmly, held the bowl in his hand, and took a fixed look.

Granny Li, who was already guilty, saw that she had almost put the bowl to her mouth, and took it away again. She couldn't help but start to panic: "What's wrong? Why didn't you drink it? Does it suit your taste?"

Shen Ruo smiled, softened her voice, and said: "No, I just remembered that my mother also liked to make corn paste for me when I was young, but I don't know if I will see her again in the future."

She was just making an excuse casually, but when she said the last sentence, her mood fell instantly.

She knew in her heart that she would never see her mother again. Although her mother was always busy and could not see her often throughout the year, after this incident, she understood that her parents loved her.

But she left them behind...

She took a deep breath, trying to suppress the sudden sourness in her heart, picked up the corn paste in her hand, and was about to drink it down, but just as the bowl was about to touch her lips, a black The long bong fell over.

"Bangdang-"

The bowl made of ceramics was smashed to pieces in an instant, and the hot corn paste inside was also knocked over to the ground, covered with dust, and could no longer be eaten.

"Old Li, you are crazy, what are you doing!?"

The mother-in-law screamed, but was cut off coldly by Uncle Li: "Enough, you shut up, you are crazy! You want to kill someone else's daughter, you are crazy."

kill?

This word sounds scary, but Shen Ruo looked around at the two old people without any emotional fluctuations.

Sure enough, soon the mother-in-law opened her mouth to explain her doubts. She cried frantically: "Do you think I want to? But Erya is only eight years old. She is the child I gave birth to with great difficulty. I can't Seeing her go to die like this! God, you are so blind, you took away my Dalang, why do you want to take away my Erya now? If you want to die, take my life! "

After all, he is his wife who has lived noisy together for more than 40 years. Uncle Li couldn't bear to see her in such pain, so he hugged Granny Li into his arms: "It's all fate! This is all fate! We can only accept our fate."

"Bad bad bastard! Bad bastard! Don't bully mother... mother!"

Erya, who had been hiding behind the door all this time, saw Granny Li crying so miserably, immediately ran out of the room, swung her small fists, and was about to hit Shen Ruo with a hammer.

As a result, halfway through the run, I fell down on the ground and cried "Wow!" Granny Li hurried forward and hugged her to comfort her.

Shen Ruo saw something different, and was a little uncertain, so Uncle Li affirmed her guess: "When Erya was born, she encountered dystocia, and it took a day and a night to give birth, but she was already out of breath.

Xiulian didn't want to believe it, she picked her mouth and slapped her butt, she didn't expect that she was actually saved, but she fell into a stupid problem.But even so, it is Xiulian's hard-won treasure. I know that we were wrong, but I still hope that Miss Shen can forgive us. Old man Li, I kowtow to you to apologize. "

Shen Ruo hastily stretched out his hand, and stopped Uncle Li who was about to kneel down: "Master, you are going to kill me, no matter what, you saved my life, and you didn't do anything to me in the end, so how can you say sorry?" ?”

Uncle Li shook his head and sighed: "I'm ashamed, ashamed, I think I, old man Li, have a clear conscience all my life, I didn't expect that I will be half the age of Huangtu, and I will almost do such an outrageous thing."

Shen Ruo asked: "Uncle Li, what happened in the village? But there are bullies bullying you? Why is there something wrong with Erya?"

Mentioning this, Uncle Li sighed again: "It's all caused by the evil dragon. The most famous gentry and high-ranking family in the town stood up and said that only if you donate young girls under the age of 16 and throw them into the Han River, Only as a sacrifice can the evil dragon be appeased, so the village chiefs of each village were summoned, and ten boys and girls must be handed over before tomorrow."

"It's a pity that my Erya was unfortunately drawn. When tomorrow, she will be escorted to the town by the village chief..."

Speaking of this, even the stubborn Uncle Li couldn't help but wet his eyes.

"Nonsense! It's really a feudal superstition, how can you do such a thing as a living sacrifice!"

This matter far exceeded Shen Ruo's guess, and anger ignited in her eyes.

At this time, Granny Li, who managed to coax Erya with great difficulty, let out a "bah" angrily: "What are you talking about, unfortunately, none of the three sons and two daughters of the village head's family were drawn, and those relatives of his family also did not win the lottery." None of them were drawn, this is a conspiracy at all! Shady! It’s useless to blame you, I told you to go to the village chief’s house and tell me that you refuse to go, you want to kill us, right?”

"Look at you, you're talking nonsense again. How could I want to kill my child? If it's possible, I'd be willing to exchange Erya's life..."

"Then let me go."

Just as Uncle Li was beating his chest and stamping his feet, Shen Ruo's faint voice instantly made him stiffen in place: "Girl, what did you say?"

Granny Li was the first to react, grabbed Shen Ruo's hand, and looked at her with cloudy eyes in surprise: "Really? Girl, are you serious? Thank you girl! Thank you girl! You are really our family's benefactor!"

But Uncle Li pushed Granny Li away angrily: "You old woman, that's enough, how can you push other girls into the fire pit like this!"

Granny Li immediately went back angrily, unconvinced: "What's wrong with me? You are the only one who is a good person, and you always give free medical treatment to the village. Have they remembered you? Now that our family is in trouble, which one of them will ask for help?" up?

Isn't Erya your daughter?Why don't you feel sorry for her?Sure enough, you think our mothers are troublesome, and you want to take this opportunity to solve us, so that you can get along with Widow Li at the end of the village! "

"Li Xiulian! You are enough, stop messing around, you crazy woman, I won't argue with you!"

"Li Jiangyi! What are you talking about? You scolded me? It's a pity that I ignored my mother's obstruction and insisted on marrying you. In the end, you treated me like this? Okay, you, I will fight with you. Don't live!"

"Enough, you all stop arguing!"

Shen Ruo looked at the two old people who were over a hundred years old together, and they were still arguing with children. Suddenly, his head was as big as a fight, and he inserted himself directly between the two, and said softly, "You saved me, the dripping water Well, when Yongquan reports, I am willing to take Erya's place as a sacrifice. You don't have to worry, since I dare to go, I will naturally have a way to escape."

After listening to Uncle Li, he still hesitated: "But..."

Shen Ruo didn't bother to explain any more, so he conjured up a scalpel and threw it out with a "swoosh", and the tip of the knife sank into the wooden wall.

Uncle Li and his wife were stunned. They were even more afraid when they thought that they wanted to harm her before.
