Mo said that this puppet stand-in is really very useful, at least very few people there are sick, and the weather is smooth all year round, and there are never major natural or man-made disasters.

The only strange thing is that every family there has a son and a daughter, without exception.

But if a family gives birth to three children, the girl who is finally born must be the "holy woman" of the next generation, and it needs to be sacrificed to the demon god to pray for peace and health for the next twenty years.

This custom has been followed until the "ghost mother-in-law", the second child is a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses, and the twins will also land one after another, and the girl is really born last.

are all children born with their own hard work in October, how can the "ghost woman" be willing to send them to the demon god?

Maybe others will give up the "small" for the sake of the "big" righteousness and send the child away. But she didn't, but hid it and secretly hid the girl and raised her.

The so-called "holy woman" was originally a woman who was "favored" by the gods, and when the previous "holy woman" was sacrificed to the witch god, the next "holy woman" was taken to a special residence according to the "divine will".

Cultivate it...... It's actually brainwashing.

Let them willingly sacrifice themselves to the witch god.

Su Xin continued to listen to the narration of the "ghost woman".

finally figured out that this "ghost woman" was actually the mother of the "holy woman" who was captured at that time, Liuying.

A female ghost who has existed in the world for thousands of years... It's a miracle that it hasn't turned into an evil spirit, and it hasn't dissipated.

Liuying and Su Xin talked in detail, falling into a long memory.

When she was young, she was actually very fascinated by the witch culture in her own clan, and she also had a talent for it, so she studied it deeply.

But as she delved deeper, she discovered that the truth was not what it seemed.

Those dolls made with their own hair and essence may not be used to become their "stand-ins" to help resist disasters, but to ......

Hotaru continued, "...... Originally, we had a very large continent with beautiful mountains and rivers, and the wind and rain were smooth... Every child is born, and there is no need to do anything about the hukou level and the like, because the culture of puppets has been deeply rooted in the bone marrow, and every village has a big ancestral hall. After the child is born, the doll is made, and then it is taken to this ancestral hall to be worshipped, which means to bless and protect the gods, and when the child is full moon, he can take it back. ”

"If I had known before that everything was a monstrous conspiracy, I would never have made a doll for my daughter, and I would never have ......"

Su Xin saw the other party's painful appearance, but she didn't know how to comfort a ...... Ghost.

Wait for the other party's emotions to gradually calm down before continuing to speak.

"According to tradition, after the child is born, the made doll will be sent to the ancestral hall to receive the blessing of divine power, and it will usually be kept for more than 40 days. And this time is also the time for the mother to do confinement, basically you can go and get the doll back after the confinement...... But my physique is probably much stronger than that of ordinary people, and my body has fully recovered in only ten days. Just continue my research...... That day, while I was breastfeeding my baby, the crystal I had worked out suddenly began to shimmer slightly. Then I saw a thin thread of silk slowly enter my child's body. ”

"I was so frightened that I wanted to move the thread away. Probably because the range of movement was too large, and before I could eat milk, all the hallucinations in front of me disappeared. I went to check the crystal again, and there was no glow, and there was nothing abnormal about the child, I just thought it was my hallucination. And then the next day at the same time... At one o'clock in the middle of the night, the child woke up, and I breastfed her again, but I didn't expect to see the crystal shining again, and this time there was another silk thread on the child..."

"I finally felt that something was wrong, so I secretly went to the ancestral hall of the village that night, took the doll back, and when I nursed the child, I could still see the silk threads on her body, but the silk threads did not increase anymore, and the crystals no longer shone. On that day I thought of the cave into which the holy woman had been sent, and when I saw that there was no one to guard it, I went in. I found a deep hole in it...... Actually, I have been in it before, but the cave is very shallow, and the saint was sent there on the first day, and the saint disappeared the next day, and everyone thought that she was picked up by the gods. But I never thought that there was such a vast space in the depths of the original cave, a very deep cave. I faintly heard the sound of "purr-purr" coming from inside, like the breathing of an incomparably large beast lurking deep underground......

"I ran out in fright, and since that day, we no longer believe that the saint was taken by some god, and it is likely that she was eaten by the fierce beast underground... I didn't know what the doll had to do with it, but I didn't put the doll in the ancestral hall and kept one of my daughters in the cellar all the time......"

Another "holy woman" was sacrificed, and I brought it up at the time, saying that there were no gods in it, and that it might be some very large and powerful beast. No one believed what I said, because I had never entered it except that night, when I had inadvertently broken into the depths of the cave. The saint was still sent into the cave. Because of my obstruction, the ceremony was delayed by three days, and that year there was a plague that killed dozens of people. I became the target of the public, saying that I had delayed the sacrifice to the gods, and this was the anger of the gods, and the punishment of us, and the people became more and more convinced of the sacrifice of the saints. ”

"After the previous saint has been sacrificed, it is necessary to choose the next saint. The men rushed straight into the cellar...... When the people knew that I had hidden my daughter, they condemned me, saying that if I delayed the sacrifice to the gods and brought disaster to the village, I would be a sinner for the ages..."

Even the neighbors thought they had only two children, but the guards grabbed them from the cellar as if they knew they were hiding a daughter......

Everyone thought it was a miracle, and no one could hide it from the gods.

People came to their senses and condemned them for being too "selfish" and disregarding God's will!

It would be a great sin to implicate all those who were harmed because of their selfishness.

The crowd was so excited that almost everyone began a crusade against their family.

No matter how superficial the truth people use to make them "take care of the overall situation", they will never let people take their daughter away.

A fierce fight broke out, and in the end, because of the disparity in strength between the two sides, the guards still took their daughter away.
