Chapter 360: Riwan's Fourth Episode: Consciousness Transfer and Evil Demon Sacrifice
Tang Xuan looked at the silver-haired sister. Until now, he found it hard to believe that the woman in front of him was Tang Miaomiao. Whether in height, figure or temperament, the two were completely opposite. The only similarity was that they both had a pair of beautiful silver eyes.
But now was not the time to delve into this matter.
The silver-haired sister's breath was getting weaker and weaker, and she couldn't even hold her weapon. If this continued, when Takleus came back, none of them would be able to escape.
What should we do now?
The silver-haired sister stared straight into Tang Xuan's eyes, she opened her red lips slightly, and whispered softly: "You are - special, I - send you, and I will - come back."
Tang Xuan was stunned. He didn't understand what the silver-haired sister was saying. The silver-haired sister didn't explain. She silently put her hand on Tang Xuan's shoulder, and before Tang Xuan could speak, she gently pushed.
A dazzling silver light shone from her palm, and the light flashed away. She raised her palm, and Tang Xuan fell backwards with his eyes blank.
Lin Wan stood beside Tang Xuan. Seeing Tang Xuan collapse, she hurriedly hugged Tang Xuan to her arms. After a check, she found that Tang Xuan's pupils were dilated and he was unconscious. She stood up angrily and drew her sword against the silver-haired sister.
"What did you do to him?!"
The lover was unconscious, and Lin Wan's heart was colder than the ice on the ground. Facing Lin Wan's questioning, the silver-haired sister did not answer. She turned around and sat on the body of a gladiator, looking up at the sky blankly.
"You"
Although she knew she was not an opponent, Lin Wan still swung her sword at the silver-haired sister's snow-white neck without hesitation.
Clang!
Tang Qianji swept away Lin Wan's blade.
"Calm down, Tang Xuan will be fine!" Tang Qianji said helplessly, "Even if all our people die here, he will be safe and sound, don't worry."
Lin Wan took a few deep breaths of cold air and her mood calmed down a little. She glared at the silver-haired sister fiercely, then walked to her side with the sword in hand and sat down. She thought that if Tang Xuan could not recover later, she would stab the silver-haired sister with a sword even if she died.
The silver-haired sister was unmoved and still stared at the sky blankly. The light of the thin line on her body became dimmer and dimmer, which meant that the power in her body was getting less and less. When Takleus came back, she would be completely balanced.
My father has been a little weird these days. Not only did he not work, but he also talked to himself that he was the reincarnation of a god and it was time to return to heaven. My mother couldn't help but say a few words to him, and he slapped her in the face. This kind of thing has never happened before. What happened to my father?
My mother disappeared and I couldn't find her anywhere. There were many wild beasts nearby. I was very worried about her and hoped that she was fine.
My father was getting weirder and weirder. I asked him where my mother was. He told me that my mother went to a far place and would not come back for a long time, and asked me not to ask again.
Today I couldn't help asking again, and my father was very angry and locked me in the stable with the horse for a night. I don't understand why he was angry, because I just wanted to find my mother back.
I found my mother. She was killed. Her body was in a cave halfway up the mountain. Someone drew a strange pattern under her body, like some kind of sacrificial ritual.
I didn't know what to do. I felt that my father must know about this, otherwise he wouldn't be angry because I asked about my mother's whereabouts.
I was very scared now. I decided not to move my mother's body, because I felt that this evil sacrificial ritual might not be over, and someone would come back here. I wanted to see who killed my mother.
I waited outside the cave for a long time. When it was almost dark, someone came. With the light of the torch in his hand, I saw his face clearly. It turned out to be my father.
My father's laughter came from the cave. I was very scared. I thought my father had gone crazy.
I cried a lot.
When my father came back, he called me to his room and asked me if I had seen it. I asked him why he did this, and he beat me up severely without any explanation.
Mother, I miss you so much.
I was locked up at home and couldn't go anywhere. My father said he would hold a sacrifice in the village, and I could only go out on that day. I know that my father has been bewitched by the evil spirit, and this sacrifice will definitely bring disaster to the village. Mother, if you see it in heaven, please stop my father or take me away.
Tang Xuan woke up drowsily, and he found that it was pitch black all around, and there was a faint stench floating in the air. His memory stayed at the moment when the silver-haired sister put her hand on his shoulder, and he couldn't remember what happened afterwards.
"I"
Tang Xuan felt something was wrong as soon as he sat up. He reached out and touched his body, and found in confusion that his body seemed to have become smaller. Then, intermittent memories emerged in his mind, and he gradually realized the current situation: the silver-haired sister transferred his consciousness to the body of a child.
Why do this?
Tang Xuan frowned, and he recalled what the silver-haired sister said to him: You are special, I will send you, and I will definitely come back.
The phrase "you are special" should mean that she found something special in him; "I will send you" obviously means to transfer his consciousness here. If we only look at these two sentences, the silver-haired lady sent him here to escape. But if we add the following sentence "I will definitely come back", the meaning is completely different. Does the silver-haired lady want him to find something here so that he can go back to save them?
Tang Xuan showed a bitter smile on his face.
He hoped that his guess was correct, that he could find something to defeat Tacleus here, and then go back in time to save people.
According to the incomplete memories in his mind, the child's father was bewitched by evil spirits, killed his mother, and is now preparing to hold a big sacrifice in the village.
This sacrifice is the most special thing known so far. If there really is something here that can defeat Tacleus, it will definitely appear at the sacrifice. The father, who happened to be bewitched by the evil spirit, promised the child to let him out on the day of the sacrifice.
Swish, swish, swish.
There were footsteps outside the door.
Click——
The panel on the door was opened, and dazzling sunlight shone in from the outside. It seemed to be noon now.
A pair of rough hands held a piece of shriveled bread and a bowl of sparse vegetable porridge and handed them in. A hoarse voice said: "Yi, eat."
Yi. Is this the child's name?
It sounds familiar.
Tang Xuan walked to the door and took the bread and vegetable porridge. He hesitated for a moment, then imitated the child's timid tone and asked: "Father, how many days are left until the sacrifice begins?"
The hoarse voice replied: "Three days."
