Chapter 80 is not human at all.
Chapter 80 is not human at all.
No wonder Yan Xun's parents seemed anxious about his disappearance, but in reality they only talked and did nothing.
Before Yan Xun was born, his name and destiny were already predetermined.
Whether it's a boy or a girl, the child will be named Yan Xun, and will be married off to the mysterious being in the marriage certificate.
As for this mysterious being... Yan Xun felt he could guess who it was even with his toes.
“I’ve heard of it before.” Yan Xun glanced at the green blanket he had thrown onto the bed. “In some places, green blankets are used for ghost marriages.”
From the beginning of the movie until now, Yan Yu's fiancé has been shrouded in mystery and has never appeared in the village. Yan Xun's parents have never mentioned him, only saying that his distant cousin is getting married and they are taking him back to the village.
Even the owner of Xiaoxiao Supermarket didn't know.
Yan Yu had only vaguely mentioned that his marriage partner was not in the village—so it's still unknown whether Yan Yu is actually his cousin!
Sun Zhao looked at the marriage certificate from the side, his face turning pale and then red. After a while, he brought up what Ruan Yun and the others had found in Yan Yu's room.
"What reply? More like a feeding report," Yan Xun retorted.
He patted his knees and stood up. "I'll go to Yan Yu's room and take another look."
He looked at Sun Zhao, "Are you going or not?"
Sun Zhao nodded.
……
Yan Yu's room wasn't far from where they were staying; it was just a few corridors away.
Yan Xun and Sun Zhao pushed open the door and went inside. The furnishings were similar to those in other parts of the Yan family home. Although this was where Yan Yu usually lived, it didn't really feel like a place with much of a home.
They soon found the letters that Ruan Yun and Meng Zhi had discovered earlier.
Yan Xun glanced at the letters. Apart from the small talk about family matters, the letters mostly focused on Yan Xun's actions. They mentioned several times that Yan Xun was spoiled and had a bad temper, seemingly trying to dissuade this person using the alias Yan Yu from his original idea.
How could the offerings promised to the "gods" be suddenly changed?
It is unknown what Yan Yu wrote in his reply, but it can be seen that Yan's parents' letters have become more cautious. One of them even mentioned that Yan Xun had recently graduated and attached a graduation photo.
Perhaps it was Yan Yu's letter that reassured Yan's parents, because their subsequent letters were no longer so cautious.
"What did you think he replied?" Yan Xun asked, holding the letter.
“The people of Wusheng Village trust him so much…” Sun Zhao sneered, “They probably think he’s a good person.”
Perhaps Yan Yu said that he had successfully arrived and would not let Yan Xun die.
Perhaps Yan Yu convinced his parents that he was a "good person" who depended on the benevolent mother goddess.
Ultimately, it was a few sweet words that gradually lowered the guard of Yan's parents.
After putting down the letter, Yan Xun and Sun Zhao continued searching for clues in Yan Yu's room.
Sun Zhao found a blueprint in a hidden compartment of a cabinet—
The drawing was a simple stick figure, but even so, the image was still terrifying.
Three or four stick figures were seen suspended in mid-air with a steel wire piercing their heads, and below these stick figures were countless wooden boxes.
Black dots, symbolizing blood, dripped down the stick figure... all the way onto the wood.
The sight of those stick figures hanging from their heads reminded Sun Zhao of frogs being dried in the sun.
He felt like vomiting for a moment, but in the end he still handed the painting to Yan Xun.
Yan Xun glanced at it and recognized that the wooden box below was the same kind placed in the Cimu Hall. He remembered that Yan Yu had told him that these boxes contained abandoned children. The Cimu Goddess was worried that they would breed resentment, so she kept them by her side and prayed every night, hoping that they could be liberated from this world.
"Except for me, I was found in the pond."
"The remaining people have all disappeared one after another."
"My birthday is April 1st."
Yan Xun looked at Sun Zhao and said, "Your birthdays should all be around this time."
The problem is, how could the people of Wusheng Village have managed to arrange for so many people with the same birthday to appear in Wusheng Village?
Yan Xun glanced at the simple drawing and then said to Sun Zhao, "Only Yan Yu's birthday is December 1st."
“He was originally a non-human being summoned…” Sun Zhao began.
Yan Xun didn't speak. He put the sketch back in its original place before standing up.
It was less than an hour until 11 o'clock, and he had to go back.
……
Sun Yue quietly left the Yan family home in the middle of the night and went to the Cimu Hall.
She first used her small scouting eyes to confirm that there was no light inside the entire Cimu Hall before climbing over the wall to enter.
Only the main hall of the entire Cimu Hall still had a sliver of light.
The closer Sun Yue got to the Cimu Hall, the more nervous she became, as if countless unseen eyes were watching her.
She glanced subconsciously at the rooms on either side; they were quiet and still, as if Yan Xun's cousin, the man whose smile never reached his eyes, had fallen into a deep sleep.
She entered the Mother's Hall with the lightest of steps.
Her disappearance occurred within the last few days. When she woke up, she was found hanging on a rope. The sacrificial ceremony and temple fair were held at the same time, and these outsiders were to be bled dry as sacrificial offerings and sent to the Goddess of Compassion.
She only remembered that she and Meng Zhi and others were suspended on wires, their arms almost cut, and a steel wire was about to pierce their eyes when she vaguely saw the golden statue of the Compassionate Mother Goddess being carried out shedding tears.
Her protective words made her even more suspicious.
That's why I decided to take advantage of the limited time I had to come to Cimu Hall to find out more.
But as soon as she stepped into the Cimu Hall, she saw the wooden boxes placed beside the Cimu Goddess suddenly begin to tremble violently.
Followed by.
The talismans on these wooden boxes seemed to suddenly lose their power, and the lids on the boxes suddenly opened!
A pair of little hands have already reached out of the wooden box!
Those small, dark hands looked like they belonged to a living person!
Sun Yue felt the hairs on the back of her neck stand on end, but just then, she heard the sound of a door opening behind her!
Oh no! Yan Yu is coming out!
In that instant, what Sun Yue saw in front of her was a small wooden box that looked quite frightening, and a mysterious, three-headed, six-armed Goddess.
Behind him was Yan Yu, who appeared to be alone.
However, her trust in the protector made her make a choice in an instant. She immediately bowed to the Compassionate Mother Goddess, silently praying, "Compassionate Mother Goddess, please help me," and then crawled under the offering table behind the prayer cushion!
She had just crawled under the altar and covered it with a cloth.
They could already see someone carrying a lantern entering the main hall through the gap.
The footsteps were neither hurried nor slow, and soon stopped less than half a meter away from Sun Yue.
"Ok?"
"How come there's another little mouse in the Cimu Hall?"
Yan Yu's voice still carried a hint of laughter, but Sun Yue, standing under the offering table, was trembling with fear.
Anyone who isn't blind can see that Yan Yu in this instance isn't human at all.
