Chapter 190 Accident
Everyone's attention was focused on the platform, and they didn't notice that the paper man had died "mysteriously" and the two ghost hands slowly retracted into the backpack.
Meanwhile, the divine messenger straightened his clothes and stood up. He maintained a serious demeanor, deliberately lowering his voice and pretending to be profound. "Before I came, the divine told me the importance of this wedding. He also values you two very much and hopes that you will quickly give birth to a child to leave behind for the family."
"When the child is born, he will come down in person to bless you."
Leave a message.
These three words make it clear that the woman will die after giving birth.
The bride, clad in mourning clothes, was trembling. Her legs gave way and she nearly fell to the ground. The witch held her up firmly and said with a forced smile, "Why don't you hurry up and thank the divine messenger and the gods?"
It is really disgusting to want others to die and then ask them to say thank you.
These villagers obviously knew about this, but none of them reacted at all. Instead, they watched the show with relish. They had been completely brainwashed by the gods and did not think that this kind of thing was beyond the scope of what normal people could accept.
But there is still a normal person.
Amidst the crowd of people sitting together, one figure stood up and questioned, "God's messenger, can you explain what blessing this is?"
This sentence immediately attracted everyone's attention. When Lin Jue saw the figure clearly, he was stunned. The person who suddenly stood up was Wu Xiumei's younger brother, Wu Hai.
He had previously speculated that Wu Hai might be an undercover agent planted by the village in the Inspection Department, but now it seems that this speculation was wrong. The other party's attitude in that sentence was full of sarcasm and criticism, and it was obvious that he was not on good terms with this village.
Moreover, directly stating what kind of blessing was being bestowed at this time was undoubtedly intended to bring to light all the shameful things that had happened in the village.
Wu Hai's sudden question made the eyes under the mask of the divine messenger turn cold. Before he could speak, the divine woman stepped forward and said, "Wu Erwa, this is someone else's wedding. The newlyweds haven't spoken yet. Why are you butting in?"
"Mother-in-law, according to my research, weddings in this village are not that simple." Wu Hai's expression remained as cold as when he was in the Inspection Office. "Every bride is repeating my sister's fate. Everyone should know this. I don't know why the gods do this, so I came back this time to find out."
This guy spoke in a serious manner, and all the villagers looked strange. They also knew that women had to get married, have children and face death when they turned 23. Although they didn't know the reason behind it, it had nothing to do with them as long as the fire didn't burn them.
Only the outsiders at the table were confused. The female college student was excited: "What is her sister's fate? Is there something fishy going on? Is he trying to steal her bride?"
"It's not that simple." The man in the jacket, the housekeeping manager, was very observant. "Look at the expressions of those villagers, plus this weird wedding. I have a feeling this isn't a good thing."
"I think this wedding might be an early funeral. Look at the paper figurines and paper money, and the bride is wearing mourning clothes." Lin Jue interrupted at this time: "This village is very strange. I suggest we don't stay any longer and leave after the wedding is over."
He appropriately revealed some of the truths he had investigated, reminding these outsiders to leave, so as to avoid innocent people being harmed when he really fought against the gods later.
As for whether these guys listen to him or not, that is none of his business, and he can't just kick them out.
He looked at the expressions of the villagers around him and shook his head slightly. These people might still think that this was a transaction, and they only knew that they were using the bride's life in exchange for the god's blessing, but they had no idea why the god wanted the bride's life.
This deal was not fair at all. Lin Jue knew that once the so-called god resurrected Wu Xiumei, everyone in the village would be killed. No one would want so many people to know that they had taken dozens of lives.
But these villagers still blindly believe in the so-called gods and are completely unaware of this.
Wu Hai's words left the witch unsure of how to respond. She opened her mouth but couldn't utter a word. The divine messenger beside him spoke coldly, "Boy, don't think you can say whatever you want just because you're the brother of that person. Your actions are a challenge to the dignity of the gods."
"God?" Wu Hai sneered. "Where is the God? I think it's probably some shady guy hiding in the shadows, turning the villagers into puppets to achieve his own goals."
"You're courting death!" The divine messenger's words were filled with murderous intent. "Do you think you can challenge the gods just because you joined the Inspection Department? If it weren't for your sister, we would have eliminated this scourge of yours long ago."
"It's not too late now." Wu Hai's face turned cold, and icicles appeared around him. "There's no need to go ahead with this wedding."
He actually chose to take the initiative, and ice cones whistled, tearing through the night sky and shooting towards the messenger of God.
A large amount of black air came out of the mask on the face of the messenger of God. He stretched out his hand and waved it, and the ice cone instantly exploded into countless ice spikes. At the same time, his figure was like a night owl, crossing the red carpet and flying towards Wu Hai.
"Holy crap! Why did they suddenly start fighting?!"
"Is Wu Erwa crazy? How dare he attack the divine messenger? Isn't he afraid of angering the gods?"
"This kid went crazy after he went out. The grand sacrifice is about to begin. If this kid makes such a fuss, will the gods vent their anger on our entire village?"
The sudden fight threw the entire wedding banquet into chaos. The crowd screamed and fled in all directions. Lin Jue took advantage of the chaos to hide in a deserted dark area.
The icicles exploded, the night owls screamed, the tables were torn to pieces, and countless debris flew everywhere. Some villagers who ran slowly were hit by the wood chips and cried out in pain. Blood instantly flowed from the places where they were hit.
"Huh? Why is that village guard so calm?"
Lin Jue, who was hiding in a deserted place, noticed the village guard sitting in the corner. The man calmly finished his last glass of wine, then slowly left with the crowd. As he walked, he took out white paper from his pocket and leisurely folded a paper man.
Faced with such an extraordinary battle, the normal reaction should be like those of the villagers, but there are only two possibilities for the village defenders to remain so calm.
One possibility is that someone like Lin Jue has the power to crush everyone in the field, so he can remain calm. Another possibility is that the village guard has a mental problem and does not realize the seriousness of the matter.
It is probably the first possibility, because when Lin Jue was talking to the village guard yesterday, although he could not understand what the other party said, there was no problem with his overall expression, and he did not look like a fool.
This village guard is definitely not a simple person.
