Chapter 6 The Cave

Amid the village chief's nagging voice and Xia Shouyi's drowsy state, time soon came midnight.

"Village Chief, the time is up!" Some villagers who had been waiting here came to the village chief and said in this way.

The village chief nodded slightly, then glanced at Xia Shouyi who was sleeping soundly on the table. A trace of unbearance flashed in his eyes, but soon, this unbearance was replaced by Jianyi!

The village chief stepped forward and woke Xia Shouyi who was sleeping mistyly. Then, in his somewhat helpless and worried expression, he tied it to a huge cylinder.

Then, the villagers carried the cylinder that bound Xia Shouyi up the mountain.

It is said that it is a mountain, but it is actually just a small, towering slope.

After the villagers set the cylinder in the center of the earth slope, they left one after another. Soon, only Xia Shou was left here!

The night was slightly cold, and Xia Shouyi couldn't help but shivered.

"I'm going to die, I'm not going to put on more clothes for me. I'm so stingy!" Xia Shouyi, who was a little lonely, couldn't help but complain about it.

The fog is getting thicker!

Suddenly, Xia Shouyi discovered that the mist shrouded over the village became restless inexplicably. Then, Xia Shouyi's eyes turned black and lost consciousness.

...

...

When Xia Shouyi woke up again, he was a little surprised to find that from when, the situation around him had changed drastically.

Originally, he was on a small slope in the village, but at this time, he was in a cave burning with dead branches.

Moreover, he was alone on the slope at that time, but now, besides himself, there are more than a hundred humans in the same situation as him!

Fortunately, the cave is very large, and even though more than a hundred people are bound in it, it still does not seem crowded at all.

At this time, most of the more than one hundred people around him were still in a coma, but there were also many humans who had already woken up.

However, what is a little different from Xia Shouyi's situation is that among these humans tied up here, there seem to be a few unlucky people who have not figured out the situation. At this time, they are cursing with resentment!

Amid the angry curses of these people, Xia Shouyi learned the reason why they were tied up here.

Simply put, these humans who were scolding loudly were actually travelers walking together. When they were staying in a village, they were warmly entertained by the villagers in the village.

They were originally wary of the enthusiasm of the villagers, but they could not resist the hot eyes of the women in the village and the occasional contact when they were urging them to drink. After drinking a few sips of wine, they felt a little confused about the east, south, west and north and became excited.

Then, after enjoying the "Spring Night, Flower Moon Night" that was so happy, they came here in a daze.

After hearing the experiences of these people, Xia Shouyi was so envious!

Take a look! Take a look!

What kind of treatment do people experience when they are also given sacrifices?

Looking at myself again, I was dealt with by a large bowl of rice and more than a dozen pieces of cured meat!

Thinking about it, I feel a little bit emotional!

In sharp contrast to this, there are another group of people who have just woken up.

He seemed to know the situation he and others were about to suffer. All of them felt like they had lost their parents and completely lost the confidence to survive.

"Buzz--"

At this moment, a roar suddenly came from the cave.

Xia Shouyi identified it for a moment and then knew where the sound came from.

Looking through the sound, I saw dark clouds above the cave, one after another, like ghost figures floating inside it.

As the volume of the sound gradually began to fill the entire cave, suddenly, familiar cylinders began to appear in Xia Shouyi's eyes.

Xia Shouyi was slightly surprised - aren't these cylinders the "standard ingredients" of all humans tied here?

As expected by Xia Shouyi, after the cylinder revealed its "true body" from the dark clouds above, sure enough, above these cylinders, like him and others, they were all bound to a human.

"So... these dark clouds are actually teleportation arrays?" Xia Shouyi suddenly felt that he had figured out a lot, "That is to say, the layer of mist above the village is actually connecting to the terminals here? And in the village controlled by the ghost, there should be such a terminal, and the dark clouds here are equivalent to a group controller connecting all terminals?"

As expected, these new offerings were all in a state of sleep and probably needed to wait for a while before they could wake up.

"By the way... the owner of this cave, the ghost in the village chief's mouth, is where it is at this time? It seems that it has not appeared yet!" Xia Shouyi quickly lost the interest in observing the newcomers, and instead focused his attention on the ghost he had never met.

To be honest, don’t look like Xia Shouyi pretending to be discouraged and afraid of nothing in front of the villagers. In fact, if he could not die, who would be willing to die?

If Xia Shouyi was really not afraid of death, he wouldn't have called out the golden fingers, the old man and the system and other auxiliary props in his heart over and over again.

The reason why Xia Shouyi put on that look in front of the villagers was because he really had no choice!

In that case, there is obviously no way to escape. Since that is the case, why should he forcefully struggle?

That not only looks a bit ugly, but it is also plain and underestimated.

The moment Xia Shouyi woke up in this cave, he was indeed very worried, but for some reason, when he saw that he was not the only human being in the same fate as him, he surprisingly lost his previous fear, but instead he was able to calm down and carefully observe the situation of the cave.

I don’t know if it was because of the mortal body of his own eyes or because the owner of this cave had not appeared, Xia Shouyi could not detect anything.

Although he found nothing, Xia Shouyi was not discouraged by this - since he couldn't see anything, he would just ask other insiders about the situation here!

Through previous observations of those who were sacrifices, Xia Shouyi could clearly identify who was the sacrifice that was harmed by the villagers of other villages, and who was the one who really belonged to other villages but had to be sacrificed here and "knowing a little about one or two things"!
